In the halls of the Inner Court, something was happening at the stime.
"Mr Zhang, we weren't..." "Silence!" There was a thunderous look on Zhang Heng's face. Fury and bloodthirst colored his eyes and they looked ready to tear into someone.
He glared at Zhu Qi and his gang.
"You're really something, aren't you? You barged into Third Miss's courtyard brazenly and what made things worse is that you did it because you wanted to speak to the sect leader. So, what emergency had you demanding to speak to the sect leader directly instead of talking tofirst? Is the Inner Court too small to accommodate your greatness? Do you thinkunworthy of your attention? You had the audacity to disregard the rules of our sect and bypass your direct superiors. Am I dead to you?" Zhang Heng's palm slammed loudly on the table and sent the teacups on the table shaking violently.
Blood had drained completely from the faces of Zhu Qi and his fellow disciples. An icy cold had overtaken them. They couldn't utter a single word.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey wouldn't dare to voice a sound of protest even if Zhang Heng were to kill them out of fury now.
How could they have known that Jiang Ning and the sect leader had known each other all along? How could they have known that the two shared a relationship that seemed more than ordinary? Zhang Heng, the principal of the Inner Court himself, had been giving a verbal lashing by the sect leader.
Who were they in comparison? They were nothing! "Speak!" Zhang Heng roared. "You certainly had your way with words just now, didn't you? Why aren't you saying anything? Is it because the sect leader isn't here? Must the sect leader be present before you are willing to speak?" Violent tremors coursed through Zhang Heng's body. He was stuck serving a harsh punishment because of this unexpected disaster. What upset him the most was the fact that his very own subordinates had broken the rules of the sect flagrantly before the sect leader.
He had had no grounds to defend himself.
How could Zhang Heng not be furious? Zhu Qi and the other disciplines remained silent. There was no way they could say anything because there was nothing for them to say.
What else could they say? That Jiang Ning wasn't a member of Qingshan Sect? It was true that he wasn't, and the sect leader knew that all along and didn't need them to tell him that.
Perhaps they could argue that Jiang Ning harbored ill intentions towards Qingshan Sect. But this was someone whom the sect leader knew it didn't matter if Jiang Ning harbored any ill intentions towards. the sect. They were only disciples, so this was none of their business.
"Say something!" Zhang Heng bellowed. He rose to his feet. "I see. Alright. Fine. It seems that no one is talking. It seems that you don't have anything to say for yourselves. Guards!" He couldn't be bothered to waste any more ton them. A dozen men marched into the hall as soon as he had called forthem.
Zhu Qi and his fellow disciples were overcwith terror.
"Zhu Qi and his fellow disciples have broken the rules of the sect and caused offence to the sect leader. They have committed a grave offence! Zhang Heng thundered. In accordance with the rules of the Disciplinary Hall, these wretched creatures are to be marked as Sinners. Go, serve your sentence!" "Mr Zhang! I... "It's too late to say anything now!" Zhang Heng roared in fury.
He did not spare Zhu Qi and the rest a single glance as the guards led them away.
They had been marked as Sinners. He knew the fate that awaited them. What made things worse was the fact that they had incurred the sect leader's wrath. Not even a Portico disciple could escape punishment for committing such an act.

His disciples' voices gradually faded away. Zhang Heng stood rooted to the spot. His shoulders were heaving heavily and his breathing was uneven.
Even killing Zhu Qi and his gang wouldn't appease his anger. SeaR*ch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"Mr Zhang, don't get upset. It's not good for you." Zhang Heng looked up and saw Mr He making his way towards him with a smile on his face. Zhang Heng snorted.
"I wanted you to speak up for me, but you said nothing. I was humiliated in front of so many people!" snapped Zhang Heng unhappily "What could I have said?" Mr He smiled. "The sect leader was angry. Nothing I say would help. Besides, your disciples were indeed
foolhardy. They had the audacity to disrespect the sect leader and they broke the rules of the sect in front of the sect leader. How was to defend you? Should I say that this has nothing to do with you?" "Humph," Zhang Heng scoffed. He knew very well that there had been nothing that Mr He could say that would save him.
He turned and threw a glance at Mr He. "Is that why you're here? To offer an explanation?" Search the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
