The old man in black robes has a thin body, sunken eyes, and a faint scent of medicine. He is obviously immersed in the art of medicine and stone all year round.
As soon as he appeared, the people around him who were brought by Zhu Quan all showed fear on their faces, with a look of fear on their brows.
Presumably, it was an elder or guard from Tianxuan Mountain who said such words.
Song Qingqing and others who followed Chu Qingxiao all the way here just frowned slightly, not liking the other party's arrogant attitude. Only Xue Sanniang, who had always been peaceful, stood up for a moment. The next moment, she clenched her hands, and there was a faint light in her eyes. The obscure divinity was almost about to burst out of her body, but she seemed to know that the occasion was inappropriate, so she suppressed it firmly.
These people who came to support Chu Qingxiao were all from Tianxuan City, and as expected, most of them were nominally disciples of the outer sect of Tianxuan Mountain, and were instinctively afraid of those from the inner sect.
This is an instinct that has been developed by living in Tianxuan City for a long time.
After all, for ordinary outer sect disciples like them who don't have much talent or background, offending the inner sect is a dead end.
"Everyone! What we are doing is in line with the laws of Daxia. Tianxuan City is also the territory of Daxia. The sect's laws cannot override the laws. Why should we be afraid?" Zhu Quan shouted loudly at this time.
"Have you forgotten the days when you were bullied by the inner sect?"
"If it weren't for Mr. Chu, Shanshuigou would have been requisitioned by the inner sect. How many of the people present would have been displaced?"
"And once the Shanshui ditch is expropriated, they can follow suit in the rest of the land. By then, won't most of the people present have no fixed place to live?"
"We are not geniuses and monsters, but we are not ants to be slaughtered by others either!"
"The ancients said that those who work for others should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow!"
"If we retreat today, how will we be able to survive in the future!?"
His voice was loud and clear, and seemed to be faintly wrapped with some strange power, causing everyone present to tremble in fear and take steps back again.
"Yes! Mr. Zhu is right!"
"Master Chu complained about our injustice and took action on our behalf, only to offend the top management of Tianxuan Mountain. How can we let him suffer injustice!"
"Today we only seek justice. There is nothing wrong with the laws and sect rules, so why be afraid!"
Waves of roars erupted from the crowd. As if inspired, everyone stepped forward one after another and shouted loudly: "Everyone in Tianxuan City is writing this, please open the Xuanjing Hall!"
This sound was continuous and resounded at the door of Zhijian Hall. For a moment, it looked like it was destroying mountains and collapsing mountains.
In fact, more than ten days ago, before Chu Qingxiao revealed his identity, the name Chu Qingxiao was still unfamiliar to most people in Tianxuan City. Most of them only heard that he was selected by the Master of Shenhe Peak and entered the Shenhe Peak. Apart from the Library Pavilion, little is known about it.
And just after Chu Qingxiao revealed his identity, this name was known to most people in Tianxuan City for the first time.
But just curious.
But soon, as the name Chu Qingxiao was discussed more and more, some information was released by no one knows who.
Zhu Quan's Mingjingtai became famous in Tianxuan City because of the Shanshuigou case, and his idea that the top management of Tianxuan Mountain should also abide by the laws of the world in Tianxuan City was supported by many ordinary disciples.
The success of the Shanshuigou case in containing the top management of Tianxuan Mountain was largely due to Chu Qingxiao's intervention in preventing the demolition of Liuhuan Peak.
In addition to redressing the injustice of Zhu Quan's father, fighting against Liuhuan Peak for Sun Li, an old disciple of Shenhe Peak, and many other deeds, as well as the fuel and jealousy of some well-intentioned people, Chu Qingxiao was outside in just over ten days. In the hearts of his disciples, he became an image of someone who just complained about injustice to the world, who was upright and not afraid of the powerful.
But such a person is about to face the seven-chamber trial.
The story has reached this point, and there is no need for the promoters behind it to say anything. Stories of being persecuted and being plotted by various plots will naturally be spread among the people for people to read.
Most things in the world are like this.
People will believe what they want to believe.
And this is what Zhu Quan and the Mirror Tower behind him have been doing these days.
Seeing the group of angry outer disciples in front of him, the old man in black robe turned purple. He stared at everyone with wide eyes, his beard on his chin twitched, pointed at everyone and cursed: "You are going against the grain, aren't you? ? Dare to be in the bustling city of Tianxuan Mountain? Do you never want to enter the inner gate for the rest of your life?"
"We all act in accordance with the laws of Daxia, and we have no intention of disrespecting our master. Please ask the elders to warn you!" Zhu Quan said with his hands in hand, his tone was calm, and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.
"You naughty disciples have no talent in cultivation. You don't want to work hard. You only know how to oppose the sect everywhere!"
"It's no wonder that you can't enter the inner gate for the rest of your life, and you can only be a bunch of clowns in the outer gate!" The old man in black robe said sarcastically. After saying this, he stamped his foot suddenly and shouted: "I'll put it down today." Here, leave quickly now, I don’t want to blame you, but if you still dare to mess around here and delay the master’s handling of the case, you guys are waiting to be expelled from the division and driven out of Tianxuan City!”
There is no doubt that Tianxuan Mountain has such ability.
There have been some thorns in the past few years, and they were expelled from Tianxuan City by Tianxuan Mountain for various reasons. Of course, the property they purchased in Tianxuan City will also be confiscated for various reasons.
Faced with such threats, everyone's expressions changed.
"Who is that?" But at this moment, Zhong Yuan, who had been looking at the paper from Zhu Quan, suddenly raised his head and looked at the old man in black robe.
Facing the old man in black robe who was bossing around the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain, upon hearing the inquiry from the captain of the Shenwu Guard, a most flattering smile appeared on his face. He hurriedly introduced himself: "General, I'm Jia Lian, Tianxuan Elder Shanbai Tuofeng, under the order of the sect, came here specially to assist you all in the seven-hall trial."
Jia Lian!
As soon as the name came out, Chu Qingxiao, who was being escorted by several divine guards, suddenly changed his expression, and his eyes towards the old man became a little colder.
Chu Qingxiao also felt a little more enlightened in his heart. No wonder Chu Qingxiao felt that the old man in black robe had a strong hostility towards him from the moment he appeared. It turned out to be Xue Sanniang's enemy.
Although deep down in his heart, Chu Qingxiao wished he could kill this old man right now.
But he also understood that at this juncture, it was not appropriate to stir up trouble, so he calmed down and just looked at everything in front of him coldly.
At this moment, Jia Lian obviously didn't know what Chu Qingxiao was thinking. He still said to Zhong Yuan with a flattering look on his face: "My lord, please be patient. These outer disciples are barbaric and vulgar and have disturbed your lord. I will have them put away right away." Driving them away will never delay the adults’ business!”
As he spoke, Jia Lian waved behind him, and a large group of disciples wearing white camel-humped uniforms filed out, trying to violently disperse the crowd in front of them.
Zhong Yuan narrowed his eyes at this moment, looked at Jia Lianyan and said, "Before coming here, King Wu also told me that Tianxuan Mountain has become more and more unruly in recent years, and the imperial court handed over Tianxuan City and several surrounding cities. The jurisdiction of Tianxuan Mountain is out of consideration for the large number of disciples in Tianxuan Mountain, and I hope that Tianxuan Mountain can properly accommodate the disciples and provide more pillars for Your Majesty to serve the imperial court."
"But there have been rumors recently that Tianxuan Mountain treats these cities as private property, treats many outer disciples as slaves, and humiliates them wantonly!"
“I didn’t believe it before, but when I saw it today, it really opened my eyes!”
At the end of his words, Zhong Yuan's tone became solemn, and there was a hint of anger in his brows.
This was probably something that no one present had expected. Jia Lian looked stunned, and he could not understand why the general from Prince Wu's Palace would side with Chu Qingxiao.
Chu Qingxiao on the side also had a look of surprise in his eyebrows. He probably didn't understand why the other party suddenly changed the direction of attack when he was clearly hostile to him before.
Probably feeling Chu Qingxiao's strange gaze, Zhong Yuan also turned his head to look at Chu Qingxiao at this time.
"Don't think too much, I don't mean to favor you."
He said in a bad tone: "His Royal Highness King Wu once taught us that swords can calm down troubled times, but only legal principles can open up prosperous times."
"I don't know how you managed to confuse the people in front of you, but since the law is like this, I'll let you understand!"
After saying this, he didn't care about Jia Lian's extremely ugly face. He glanced at everyone present and said loudly: "The paper is correct. Since these ten thousand people are also here, then..."
"According to the laws of Daxia..."
"Open the Hanging Mirror Hall!"
