C296 Not Willing to Compromise!

After leaving the Magic Hall, Lin Cheng and the others all had unpleasant expressions on their faces.

Especially Zhou Chuan, he couldn't conceal his anger and anxiety, and the expression on his face kept changing.

No matter how stupid they were, they knew that their trip to the Magic Hall today was in vain!

Not only had they made a wasted trip, but they had also offended Qu Yuanlu even more. More importantly, this trip had basically cut off one of their hopes!

Qu Yuanlu and the chief disciple of the Magic Hall were actually good friends. When Yu Zhichen said this proudly, the three of them were stunned, but most of them felt their hearts sink. They realized that their plan to seek help from the Magic Hall was going to fail.

Not only that, Yu Zhichen also made a request for Lin Cheng to become Qu Yuanlu's Follower, but Lin Cheng rejected it once again.

This time, he had completely offended Qu Yuanlu.

Therefore, the three of them didn't hesitate or stay any longer. After dealing with Yu Zhichen, they immediately left Magic Hall.

"Qu Yuanlu is simply taking advantage of the situation!"

Zhou Chuan couldn't help but curse, "He doesn't dare to fight with those core disciples, but he wants to force us to do so. He even said that he had a great reputation among the inner circle disciples and was extremely popular! It was all bullshit! This man is a hypocrite, and his hypocrisy is unparalleled!"

Zhu Ziqiao's pretty face was also cold. Qu Yuanlu's coercion had also angered her.

Just like what Zhou Chuan had said, they naturally knew that Yu Zhichen's appearance at this time was to cut off their hope. At the same time, he was also forcing Lin Cheng to agree to become Qu Yuanlu's Follower.

This kind of behavior was extremely despicable and infuriating!

However, they were powerless to resist. They hadn't even seen a disciple of the Magic Hall. It was just a servant who had come to greet them. They naturally understood what this meant.

"Qu Yuanlu also has his eyes on the rare treasure in our hands. It seems like he won't give it up so easily!"

Zhu Ziqiao said with a cold face, "If that's the case in the Magic Hall, I'm afraid that there won't be a good result in the Punishment Hall. We have to be mentally prepared!"

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look first!"

The fact that the Punishment Hall didn't show any attitude until now indicated that there was a problem. They had already realized this before coming here.

They had already estimated that they wouldn't get any good results if they went to the Punishment Hall to ask for help. As for the Magic Hall, perhaps there wouldn't be any good results, but it shouldn't be too bad either!

However, they had never expected that they would meet Yu Zhichen in the Magic Hall, and the result would be like this!

In this way, they wouldn't have a good outcome even if they went to the Punishment Hall.

"Actually, we don't have to be too depressed!"

Lin Cheng suddenly said, "Although the Punishment Hall didn't express their stance to stop Tong Chenen and the others, at least they didn't target us. This means that compared to the Magic Hall, the Punishment Hall is relatively fair."

"You think too highly of them!"

Zhou Chuan didn't think so. He sneered and said, "Since the Hall of Punishment is fair, then Wu Ganben and the others... And those two guys today, what they did can be considered as violating the sect rules, right? Why didn't the Punishment Hall punish them? Yuan Buyang had already sent out the message, why didn't the Hall of Punishment make a stand? Doesn't this mean that they have tacitly agreed to their intentions of coveting our treasure?"

" Didn't you say that core disciples have a very high status in the sect and have great authority? I'm afraid that the Punishment Hall wouldn't want to offend core disciples so easily, right? "

Lin Cheng's expression had already returned to calm. He calmly analyzed the situation." Besides, although Wu Ganben and the others were present, there were still those two bastards. They were in the wrong first, but they were also the ones who got hurt in the end. Isn't it too disrespectful for the Punishment Hall to punish them now?"

" You mean to say that the Punishment Hall doesn't approve of Tong Chenen and the others' actions? However, before the situation reached a certain extent, they weren't willing to offend the core disciples too much. That's why they didn't stand out and express their views? " Zhou Chuan couldn't help but ask.

"At least from the current situation, it should be like this!"

Lin Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "However, this is only my analysis and speculation. As for the exact details, I will need to go to the Punishment Hall to find out!"

Zhou Chuan nodded in silence. After a while, he said, "I hope the Punishment Hall can be fair. Otherwise, this sect is too... dirty!"

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Elder Brother Zhou, you don't need to be so depressed. Have you not gotten used to the training in the secret realm?"

Zhou Chuan was startled. After a while, he nodded and said, "The strong prey on the weak. It turns out that this is the same everywhere!"

"That's why we need to become stronger. That's why we need to break through to the Incarnation Stage, Divine Ability Stage, or even the almighty realm!"

Lin Cheng said, "If we can't get used to it and don't dare to fight, we can only look up to others in the end. If we don't have the strength to protect our own things, we won't be able to protect the people around us! Elder Brother Zhou, you would rather give up the chance to enter the sect. Didn't you have great ambitions by choosing to enter the secret realm and fight to the death?"

"That's because I don't want to be a servant!" Zhou Chuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. His sister was an inner circle disciple of the Unification Sect. If he wanted to, he could have entered the Unification Sect as a servant. He didn't need to venture into the secret realm, but he wasn't willing to be a servant. Thus, he went to the secret realm.

"Then do you regret it now?" Lin Cheng asked.

"Regret?"

Zhou Chuan was startled.

Lin Cheng did not wait for his answer. He just said, "If I did not enter the secret realm, I might have already appeared in a mountain range in the north. Maybe I have already died there, or maybe I will gain something. But I absolutely can't get the Great Arrow, nor the Son-mother Knife... Actually, if I don't go to the secret realm, the biggest possibility I have right now is... I would have been hunted down by the experts of the Unification Hall, perhaps I would have died a long time ago!"

"If that's the case, if I didn't join the Unification Sect, I wouldn't have broken through to the Core Sea Stage so quickly, let alone the Second Level of Core Sea Stage!"

Lin Cheng said with a smile, "It's the same now. Perhaps I won't be able to overcome this crisis, but there will be a way to solve it. Even if I hand over the rare treasure now, I will definitely get it back in the future!

If you can't adapt to the law of the jungle, you shouldn't have embarked on the path of cultivation. Just like you, if you stay in your family, you will definitely be able to live your life comfortably. Why did you come here? "

Hearing this, Zhou Chuan suddenly looked up. After a long time, he nodded heavily. "Brother, you are right!"

Zhou Chuan suddenly understood that Lin Cheng was not going to defend the treasure to the death. However, he was not willing to lower his head to anyone, and he was not willing to compromise like this!

Lin Cheng had the mentality of a strong person. Unlike him, when he faced a strong opponent, even his mentality became timid. In this way, he was destined to not become a strong person.

Lin Cheng was not afraid of losing the treasure. What was there to be afraid of?

Zhu Ziqiao looked at Lin Cheng, her beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light, and a smile couldn't help but appear on her pretty face.

What attracted her the most was Lin Cheng's high fighting spirit, and his unyielding and unyielding character.

In fact, Zhu Ziqiao had never thought too highly of the rare treasure, especially the Son-mother Knife. She had obtained it by accident. Even if she lost it now, she wouldn't feel too sad.

However, she didn't want to give up the treasure so easily. However, if Lin Cheng insisted on defending the treasure even if it cost him his life, she would fight alongside him without hesitation!

However, it wasn't wise to defend the treasure in front of him even though he knew that he was no match for it.

Now that she heard what Lin Cheng said, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

It was not because Lin Cheng was reluctant to part with the rare treasure, but because he was unwilling to be humiliated. He had to fight with his life on the line to protect what belonged to him.

In that case, she would let those who coveted the rare treasure know that they weren't livestock waiting to be slaughtered. If they wanted to take away their treasures, they would have to be prepared to pay the price!

After returning from the Magic Hall in disappointment, the three of them realized that their every move might be under the watch of others.

Therefore, the three of them went to the Punishment Hall without hiding anything. Along the way, they arrived at the Punishment Hall under the astonished gazes of many people.

However, after arriving at the Punishment Hall, the answer they received wasn't satisfactory.

"It's normal for there to be conflicts between disciples. In fact, the sect doesn't prohibit fights between disciples. As long as it doesn't cross the bottom line of the sect rules, it's within the scope of permission!"

The one who spoke was a Deacon from the Punishment Hall. He told Lin Cheng and the others that whether it was Wu Ganben or Yuan Buyang's actions, they didn't touch the bottom line of the sect rules, so the Punishment Hall couldn't interfere.

Zhou Chuan could not help but ask, "Does the Punishment Hall have to wait until Yuan Buyang seriously injured us before asking? By that time, it will be too late!"2

The Deacon said, "No matter who it is, we have to abide by the sect rules. Otherwise, we will be punished accordingly."

Lin Cheng and the other two understood that the Punishment Hall would not interfere when Yuan Buyang did not violate the sect rules.

This also meant that even if Yuan Buyang arrived at Lin Cheng's residence, as long as he didn't severely injure Lin Cheng and the others, the Hall of Punishment wouldn't be able to interfere.

The three of them looked at each other. They realized that it was impossible for the Punishment Hall to interfere now. If they waited for Yuan Buyang to intervene, no matter how the Punishment Hall dealt with them, they would at least suffer a heavy blow!

"Then, can the Punishment Hall send someone to warn Yuan Buyang, or stand out and make those who ignore the sect rules fear them?" Zhou Chuan couldn't help but ask again.

"Any disciple will be told not to violate the sect rules from the moment they enter the sect. There is no need to repeat it!" The Deacon said.

The three of them smiled bitterly. This was the reason why they did not agree to speak out now.
