Chapter 547: A court session was held to force a confession, and the real person was possessed
I originally thought that the formation master should rely on the formation to be powerful, and he would be useless without the formation.
But I didn’t expect that Elder Hei Ku of the Xun Gu Sect is quite evil!
Not only is he evil, but those two poultry and livestock are even more evil!
Master Shang Ding discovered sadly that he could not defeat Elder Hei Ku, who was also in the middle stage of Jindan, and he could not even defeat a chicken and a pig!
What is this thing called?
Fortunately, Master Shang Geng is powerful enough. After all, he is a professor in the late Jindan period of Shang Yang Academy and a leader of the same lineage. One against three is not a problem.
But it is not easy to win these three in a short time.
This place is only a hundred miles away from Tianfu Mountain. The movement was so loud that it had long been seen by Xun Gu Sect disciples who were passing by, and they went back to report it to the higher ups of the sect.
Master Zhankong hurried over after hearing this.
It's just that he is a serious formation master, and fighting is really not his strong point. He is the same without him.
After dragging on for a while, Master Shang Geng fought harder and harder, just when the Black Skeleton Demon Lord could no longer withstand it.
Ancestor Lu Que finally came out of seclusion!
Go directly to the scene.
A huge soul power covered the sky and the earth, locking the people in the merchants here from a distance, and roared!
"What a thief, how dare you act so arrogantly here!"
This shout affected the soul, making everyone present feel dizzy and dazzled. Before they could react, they felt a crazy stinging pain in their temples, like needles.
Black Skeleton Demon Lord and others are overjoyed, this wave is stable!
"You all stand down and let me come!"
Ancestor Lu Que took the lead, and in just ten rounds, the two people on the opposite side were unable to fight back.
Master Shang Geng couldn't resist, and then he realized that the Xun Gu Sect had such a powerful character with the highest level of golden elixir, and he was shocked.
The Black Skull Demon Lord and others next to him freed their hands and watched the show with gusto while plundering the formation for Patriarch Lu Que.
There is no suspense about the battle that follows.
This is the Lujiang River Basin, the territory of the Xun Gu Sect. The merchants have no backup, so they are going in alone.
It's okay not to be discovered, but once blocked, don't even think about making a comeback.
Ancestor Lu Que's soul skills are so uncanny that most people who have no experience fighting against soul cultivators are in danger of being overwhelmed by him!
Master Shang Geng saw that he could not defeat him, and disciples of the Xun Gu Sect were arriving in a steady stream from all around, but the leader of the Xun Gu Sect who had never returned had not shown up yet.
If you wait until the leader comes back, it will be even harder for you to leave!
In desperation, he made a decisive decision!
withdraw!
Master Shang Geng is in the late stage of Jindan. He can fight when he wants and leave when he wants. Although he is no match for Patriarch Lu Que, if he wants to run away, the opponent will not be able to keep him.
But he left, but Master Shang Ding couldn't leave!
Including the disciples of Shang Yang Academy and merchants below, they were all abandoned by him.
Master Shang Ding did not have the ability to withstand the pressure of Master Shang Geng. He was seriously injured by Patriarch Lu Que in just a few blows and was captured on the spot!
The juniors below who he brought with him to attend the banquet of Hongdu New Mansion in southwestern Shandong all dispersed like birds and beasts. They just wanted to run back to northwestern Shandong and hated their parents for not giving them more legs.
After Patriarch Lu Que captured Master Shang Ding, he didn't pay much attention to them. He threw them directly to the Black Skull Demon Lord and hurried back to the Tianfu Mountain Cave Mansion, where he was busy conducting experiments in seclusion.
The Black Skull Demon Lord ordered on the spot that all the disciples and deacons of the sect were dispatched to hunt down the people from Shang Yang Academy and merchants!
They even sent a message to the Lujiang League, mobilizing the forces in the entire Lujiang Basin to inform them, and set up checkpoints along the way to monitor them closely.
As for why they, the elders of the Golden Core stage, did not take action, but instead asked the people below to take action, this has to do with the rules of the cultivation world of Lu State.
High-level monks generally do not take action against low-level monks unless necessary. This is an unwritten rule that everyone acquiesces to.
The younger generation will mostly leave it to the young people to solve the problem.
The intervention of the older generation is somewhat cheap, and the Black Skeleton Demon Lord doesn't pay much attention to the minions below. They are all insignificant people anyway, so he can just send his men to hunt them down.
They then brought Master Shang Ding back to Xun Gu Sect, took out the torture instruments and tied them in the open square, preparing to humiliate the hostile forces.
Master Zhankong was a sophisticated person and suggested that he should not be in a hurry to interrogate him. He could first invite all the Jindan masters from the Lujiang League and even Yunchuan Academy as witnesses, and then the execution could be held in public!
Because you are interrogating the ancient sect behind closed doors, and outsiders don’t know what happened to you. If the merchants in far northwest Shandong become so angry that they make up random essays, public opinion may turn against you.
Who knows whether Master Shang Ding was intercepted and captured by the ancient cultists on his way to Luxi after attending the banquet of Hongdu Xinfu, or whether he came to his door on his own?
If all the allies of the Lujiang League are invited and interrogated in public, openly and fairly, not only can they occupy a high position of justice, but they can also show their strength.
Just kill two birds with one stone!
The senior leaders in the church praised this strategy as a brilliant one, so they sent out invitations three days ago, inviting allies to come for a joint review.
Today.
Lin Shan had just returned from Misian Ridge, and the three-day period had just arrived.
When he reunited with Black Skeleton Demon Lord, Ancestor Lu Que and others on the high platform to learn what happened, allies were already arriving one after another.
Master Zhankong personally received them one by one and led them to arrange seats in the square.
Many of these allies are old faces. They came to form a team to rescue the enemy half a year ago, and they came to participate in the trial half a year later!
Among them, old acquaintances from the four major families in Wangyue City, the four sects in Lunan, and the sect leaders and elders of various sects in the Lujiang River Basin heard that the merchant's Jindan master had been captured, and they were all invited to visit with curiosity.
There are also some individual forces where the elders of the Golden Core stage are really not available, so they have to send monks of the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Leader, I'm coming!"
Yang Zhenren had just separated, and now they met again.
Lin Shan welcomed him over with a smile, and then returned the seal of the Lujiang League to him.
It is not appropriate to keep this kind of official seal in his own hands, because he usually does not handle affairs at the Lujiang League headquarters. All the dirty work is done by Yang Zhenren and other ten elders.
Therefore, it is better to return the big seal within the alliance to the alliance.
Ancient emperors also had so-called "palm seal eunuchs" around them, and the emperor was never seen carrying a jade seal every day.
The stall is so big and I don’t want to do it myself, so I can just be the hands-off shopkeeper. There is no need to hold on to the power.
"Leader, I heard that the master of this business, Shang Ding, came to his door in person?"
Master Yang asked questions for the many guests, and everyone looked over.
On the iron frame in front, the figure was still suffering inhuman torture.
"Ah!~~~"
"Oh oh oh!!!"
"Oh~~~"
Brother Chicken was very displeased. He hated it when others imitated him, so he secretly sent a message to the executioner to be more ruthless.
The disciple didn't know which elder was transmitting the message to him, so he just did as he was told. He immediately heated the soldering iron red, and specifically selected the sensitive parts of the prisoner and burned it hard!
Master Shang Ding started to scream again, with tears and runny nose running down his face.
Lin Shan didn't pay attention to these small actions, but asked the Black Skeleton Demon Lord to tell everyone about the incident.
Everyone was amazed after hearing this.
They were not in awe of the power of Ancestor Lu Que. After all, they had witnessed it with their own eyes before, and they were not surprised by such an ending.
But he looked at Elder Heiku with admiration!
As a formation master, he was able to hold on until Patriarch Lu Que arrived under the late Jindan Professor of Shangyang Academy.
This strength.
Are you still an array mage?
The Black Skull Demon Lord accepted it calmly, took out Brother Chicken and the Pig-headed Monster, and tried to minimize their existence in the human country.
"There is already a dispute between the merchants and our Xungu Sect, but now they are sneaking around and letting them get close to the mountain gate! This is a blatant provocation to our sect, and we will definitely not let it go!" Everyone looked at Master Shang Ding in front of him who kept screaming. Everyone complained in their hearts.
I'm afraid the merchant won't give up this time. You've tortured the elders into this state. Who can accept the shame and humiliation?
"There is also Shangyang Academy!"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord spoke in a serious tone and spoke plausibly.
"As one of the top ten neutral academies, you actually undermined your own position, blatantly colluded with your relatives, and came to our school to cause trouble. I have to ask them for an explanation afterwards!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
Isn't it too aggressive for you to behave yourself even though you are getting an advantage?
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden sound outside the square.
"Well said!"
Dr. Zhou Zhenren, a doctor of the Five Classics from Yunchuan Academy, came late. He strode onto the stage and greeted all the local minds with a smile.
Yunqiya is a bit far away from the Lujiang River Basin, in the westernmost part of Luxi, so he arrived the latest.
But it happened to be just in time.
"What Elder Heiku said deeply touched my heart. I have read the content of your letter. The Shangyang Academy's provocation this time has indeed crossed the line!"
"Sometimes, if you stretch your hand too far, you have to hit it back hard!"
"If you always come to other people's homes unscrupulously, you will have to cut off your hand!"
Zhenren Zhou's speech was like a shot in the arm, everyone's spirits were shaken, and their hearts were as clear as a mirror.
Yunchuan Academy is a transcendent existence of Luxi and will never allow other academies to interfere excessively with local forces. What Master Shang Geng of Shangyang Academy did this time has touched their red line.
Therefore, Yunchuan Academy naturally expressed support for Xun Gu Sect's approach this time.
However, they are also advised not to go too far.
"Master Lin, Elder Heiku, our academy has sent people to Shangyang Academy to question, so your sect and the Lujiang League don't need to interfere anymore."
Zhou Zhenren claimed that Yunchuan Academy had taken the initiative to take over this role for them, with the intention of keeping the situation under control and not escalating.
"As for the merchants, it's up to you to teach them how to do it. We remain neutral."
In the eyes of Yunchuan Academy, the conflict between the Xun Gu Cult and the merchants was a small matter, and there was no need to ask too much.
At the same time, I am secretly taking care of Lin Shan, meaning I will take care of Shangyang Academy for you, and you can just concentrate on dealing with the merchants.
Lin Shan and everyone in the Xun Gu Sect thanked them.
Although the Lujiang League is backing them, they are not afraid of Shangyang Academy.
However, with the presence of Yunchuan Academy, Shangyang Academy cannot openly deal with him. If Big Brother wants to maintain stability in Luxi, he must not allow the situation to get out of control.
They also enjoy being less stressed.
"Next, we will interrogate Master Shang Ding. This matter must be transparent, open and fair!"
Following the Black Skeleton Demon Lord's order.
Professionals walked up on both sides, wearing master's hats, setting up tables and chairs, sitting down, spreading out paper and pens, and began to torture Master Shang Ding.
"Master Shang Ding, a few days ago, together with Master Shang Geng from Shang Yang Academy, what was your intention in coming to me to seek ancient teachings?"
All the disciples below stood quietly, staring at the high platform.
Master Shang Ding was tied to a cold iron frame, with his consciousness and magic sealed away. His skin and flesh were torn all over his body, his clothes were ragged, some places were burnt black, and he exuded an unpleasant smell of meat paste.
His eyes were hazy and blurred, and he had been tortured to the point of unconsciousness for the past few days.
The soul fire burning in the brazier was like a dancing ghost, looking at his soul evilly and greedily, wanting to swallow it in one gulp.
He was so weak that he didn't have the strength to speak.
"Master Shang Ding, we are asking you something, please reply truthfully!"
The pens in the hands of these masters were dipped in ink, and they were waiting to start copying the confessions, but they found that the prisoner refused to cooperate.
The executioner was very discerning, and immediately took out the red-hot iron from the brazier, pointed it at the crotch of Master Shang Ding, and stabbed it hard!
"呲呲呲呲."
"Ouch~~~~"
"呲呲呲呲."
The big bird was burned, and Master Shang Ding couldn't help but howl in ecstasy.
The masters observed the words and expressions, and when they found that it was almost the same, they waved their hands to indicate that the executioner could pause, and then asked again.
This time it obviously worked.
Master Shang Ding seemed to suddenly wake up, tears streaming down his face like a dam, and he choked back with pain.
"I, I, intend to ambush Master Lin outside Tianfu Mountain."
The masters nodded after hearing this and immediately put pen to paper.
"The merchant Shang Ding is squatting outside the Xungu Sect to guard the leader Lin, intending to ambush and put him to death. He has evil intentions and his intentions are worthy of death!"
Master Shang Ding quickly clarified: "No, no, we have no intention of killing Leader Lin, we just want to teach him a lesson"
The masters picked up their pens again and recorded on the paper.
"Master Shang Ding not only wants to kill Leader Lin, but also wants to teach Xun Gu Sect a lesson."
Master Shang Ding was stunned and struggled so hard that the chains rattled.
"No, no, I didn't want to kill Master Xungu on someone else's territory, I just wanted to teach him a lesson! After all, if we kill him, we can't get out of the Lujiang River Basin, and we will definitely suffer crazy revenge from the entire Lujiang League. This We would never dare to think of dying together.”
The masters read and wrote again, shaking their heads one by one.
"Zhenren Shang Ding not only wants to kill Leader Lin and teach the Xungu Sect a lesson, he also wants to perish together with the entire Lujiang River Basin."
"???"
Master Shang Ding was immediately confused!
The next moment he suddenly came back to his senses and shouted that he was wronged!
"I don't, I don't! Even if you give me 10,000 courages, I don't dare to die with the entire Lujiang River Basin. There are so many forces in the Lujiang League, you have to see if I have that ability!"
< br>
The masters sighed and waved their pens.
"Master Shang Ding said that if he had the ability, he would definitely slaughter the entire Lujiang League and leave no one behind. It is indeed inhumane."
Everyone present was stunned!
Master Shang Ding's cerebellum shrank and he looked like a madman.
"I didn't, I didn't! At first, we just wanted to come to Tianfu Mountain and teach you a lesson."
