Chapter 323: Chapter 323: How Dare You Touch My People?

The Red Sword Light was not very fast!

Qian Zhen was a Martial Artist at the Dao Spirit Realm, and with his abilities, he could have dodged the fragmented sword light.

However, his use of the Vajra Divine Body Secret Technique greatly reduced his agility.

Moreover, the Sword Intent wielded by Jing Yan also somewhat constrained Qian Zhen, leaving him no choice but to watch helplessly as the Red Sword Light penetrated his body.

His Vajra Divine Body Secret Technique enhanced his overall defensive capabilities, but it still could not stop the influx of the Red Sword Light.

“Cough~”

Crimson blood flowed from Qian Zhen’s seven orifices.

Qian Zhen’s eyes bulged as he stared intently at Jing Yan.

He seemed to want to approach Jing Yan, but after a slight shudder, he collapsed to the ground.

Once he fell, he could never stand again.

His life force dissipated, and Qian Zhen died!

“How is this possible?” Ying Youque exclaimed with disbelief in his wide eyes.

Even though he had witnessed the process of Qian Zhen’s assassination, he still couldn’t convince himself all at once.

Qian Zhen, a Martial Artist at the Dao Spirit Realm, had been killed by Jing Yan just like that.

His gaze lingered on Qian Zhen’s corpse for a moment before turning sharply back to Jing Yan, his eyes now fiercely aglow.

Lin Yan also let out a long sigh.

He thought that in this battle, Jing Yan would die at the hands of Qian Zhen, but unexpectedly, it was Qian Zhen, a Martial Artist of the Dao Spirit Realm, who died.

In fact, Lin Yan did not wish for Qian Zhen’s death either, as Qian Zhen was also a rare talent at Dao Yi Academy.

It was truly a pity to see him die like this.

But when compared to Jing Yan, Qian Zhen seemed to be much inferior.

Qian Zhen was more than twice Jing Yan’s age, yet he was killed by Jing Yan.

The superior and inferior were clearly visible.

As for the students from the Outer Court of Dao Yi Academy, their expressions were exaggerated, and they all held their breath.

Their discussions had been incessant during the fight between Jing Yan and Qian Zhen, but now, they fell utterly silent.

They knew that if Jing Yan could continue to cultivate, he would eventually become a legendary figure at Dao Yi Academy.

“Hall Master Lin Yan, can we now proceed to the Inner Court promotion assessment?” Jing Yan sheathed his Skyfire Sword, turning his gaze towards Lin Yan and asked calmly.

Lin Yan was slightly taken aback.

“Yes!” Lin Yan looked deeply at Jing Yan.

“Wait!” Ying Youque suddenly exclaimed.

“Vice Hall Master Ying, is there something else?” Jing Yan turned to look at Ying Youque, feeling no goodwill towards the people from the Criminal Punishment Hall.

“You killed Inner Court Student Qian Zhen, and now you’re asking if I have any issues?

Your problem is big!” A fierce light flashed in Ying Youque’s eyes as he spoke in a low voice.

Jing Yan furrowed his brows.

“Vice Hall Master Ying, I challenged Qian Zhen to a life-or-death duel, which you knew about and approved.

Now, you target me for the same reason, don’t you think that’s rather unfair?” Jing Yan contained his anger.

“Hmph, Jing Yan, stop causing trouble.

Now, you must go to the Criminal Punishment Hall and await processing.

I will personally report this matter to the Dean.

How you will be dealt with, you can patiently wait at the Criminal Punishment Hall!” Ying Youque rebuked.

“How ludicrous!

Ying Youque, you don’t need to act so self-righteous.

We all know what you’re thinking.

If Qian Zhen had killed me, you definitely wouldn’t think Qian Zhen was wrong.

Now that Qian Zhen is dead, you think I’m guilty.

Are you even fit to run the Criminal Punishment Hall?” Jing Yan shouted loudly.

Zhang Min died in the Criminal Punishment Hall, leaving Jing Yan with a deep grudge against the hall.

Now, with Punishment Hall Master Ying Youque clearly aiming at him, how could Jing Yan tolerate it?

Even if he humbled himself to admit his fault, Ying Youque likely wouldn’t let him off easily.

“How dare you, scoundrel, be disrespectful to the Punishment Hall Master!” Vice Hall Master Mu Xi bellowed, his figure flashed, his Primordial Energy surged out, looking like he would strike Jing Yan.

“Vice Hall Master Ying, Elder Mu Xi, I have already conveyed the order from Vice Chancellor Fang Ruoyu.

She declared Jing Yan is innocent!” Bing Ruo emphasized with a frown.

“Envoy Bing Ruo, Vice Chancellor Fang Ruoyu declared Jing Yan’s innocence concerning his past deeds.

But now, Jing Yan has killed Inner Court Student Qian Zhen, something the Vice Chancellor surely doesn’t know yet.

How could she possibly consider Jing Yan innocent now?

I think it’s best we discuss this at the Criminal Punishment Hall!” Ying Youque insisted firmly.

Bing Ruo, shook his head.

He was just the messenger, with no authority over the actions of the Criminal Punishment Hall.

Of course, the deference shown by Ying Youque and others from the hall was because of his status as an envoy.

Personally, Ying Youque definitely wouldn’t take him too seriously.

“Vice Hall Master Ying, Vice Chancellor Fang’s opinion should be quite important, right?” Lin Yan spoke up.

What Lin Yan implied was that Fang Ruoyu, as a Vice Chancellor of Dao Yi Academy, ranked only below the Dean.

Since Fang Ruoyu had previously declared Jing Yan innocent, she must appreciate him.

If the Criminal Punishment Hall were to truly apprehend Jing Yan, it was likely to upset Fang Ruoyu.

“Hmph, the Criminal Punishment Hall has its rules for handling things.

I will personally speak to Vice Chancellor Fang,” Ying Youque retorted coldly.

The more others tried to prevent him from apprehending Jing Yan, the more resentment he harbored towards Jing Yan.

He felt his authority was being undermined.

How the situation had escalated was no longer just about Jing Yan’s culpability, but about his own face as the Punishment Hall Master.

And his dignity was compromised because of Jing Yan.

If he let Jing Yan go now, wouldn’t he, Ying Youque, become a laughing stock within Dao Yi Academy?

“Mu Xi, take this boy to the Criminal Punishment Hall!” Ying Youque gestured, giving a direct order to Vice Hall Master Mu Xi.

“Yes!” Mu Xi immediately responded.

“Boom!” A surge of Primordial Energy enveloped Jing Yan.

“Trying to apprehend me?” Jing Yan bellowed, “Try it!”

“Sky Wings!” Jing Yan activated his Sky Wings, his figure flickering, speeding toward the distance.

“Boy, think you can escape from my grasp?” Mu Xi’s gaze intensified, his swung Primordial Energy swiftly diving down.

Jing Yan felt as if he had crashed against a mountain cliff, his full-force activation of Primordial Energy unable to break free from this terrifying oppressive force.

“Damn it!” Jing Yan gritted his teeth and growled low.

“Mu Xi, how dare you lay a hand on my person?”

Just then, a clear and melodious voice suddenly came from the distant sky.

Next, everyone saw a woman dressed in a white long dress stepping through the heavens!

Her graceful figure, like a fairy descending to the mortal realm, exuded an indescribable charm with every movement.
