Chapter 348 - Public trial
The experts of the three sects behind Palace Chief Zhao did not interrupt, two of them were even smiling, and could not see good or evil, only one of them had a gloomy face, the fierceness in his eyes was not concealed at all, as if he had a deep grudge with the Villa.
Needless to say, this person was definitely one of the higher ups of the Misty Rain House.
Half a month ago, the higher ups Elder Chen came to visit the Taoist Master Yunxiao, but they did not see it.
Crouching Dragon Villa did not intentionally seal off this matter, even if Elder Chen did not admit it, after going out and being secretly announced by the disciples, Misty Rain House had more or less heard about it.
Not only the Misty Rain House, even all the clans with some power had heard of it. This undoubtedly caused their Misty Rain House to once again sweep the ground with face.
And this time, it was even more direct and thorough than Wang Hao's threat.
This was simply slapping their Misty Rain House in the face!
They treated their Misty Rain House as if it were nothing and let them die as they pleased!
How could Misty Rain House endure it? Why wasn't he angry?
The higher ups were already quite patient in not making a move immediately.
Of course, the key reason why he did not take action was because this was the Crouching Dragon Villa. Although he was an expert of the eighth circulation, in the Crouching Dragon Villa, he was still not strong enough.
And it was the Misty Rain House and the three sects that had come together this time around, who had added fuel to the fire.
Misty Rain House lost all face, he knew that his family was unable to shake Crouching Dragon Villa, and would not be able to give Crouching Dragon Villa too much pressure either. Once Taoist Master Yunxiao spoke out in support of Wang Hao, he would definitely fall into an awkward situation.
Thus, Misty Rain House had no choice but to contact County Palace and the other two sects.
Without paying any price, the four forces had smoothly united and prepared to take the opportunity to suppress the Crouching Dragon Villa.
All of this was because the Crouching Dragon Villa had been too powerful all these years, causing them to feel extremely fearful.
And now, with such a monster like Wang Hao, not only did he have outstanding talent, but he was also impulsive enough to hold a grudge, not giving the sect any face at all. What about reaching Taoist Master Yunxiao's strength?
Aren't they subservient and submissive?
This was something that they absolutely did not want to see.
Although it was a bit remote and the imperial power could not reach them, in terms of reputation, they were the true masters. It was fine for the sect to develop, but they could not exceed them in terms of authority, much less by too much.
Originally, they had still been waiting for Taoist Master Yunxiao to leave to search for the path to the Immortal Soul. Now, without Taoist Master Yunxiao, their strength would only be on par with their strength, and the situation would probably return to what it was 30 years ago.
But now, Wang Hao suddenly appeared. It was said that he also had a special physique, the innate sword body, as well as the Xiao Family and the Xie Family's top geniuses. These four geniuses, within the County Palace s and the three sects, no one could compare to them.
Given enough time, these four people would grow up to be the four Taoist Master Yunxiao s, or even stronger.
As for the Taoist Master Yunxiao, he would definitely wait for one of them to grow to his level before he was willing to leave.
In this way, if they continued to wait, not only would Crouching Dragon Villa's strength not decrease, it would even increase.
Thus, they couldn't wait any longer. Now that the opportunity had presented itself, there was no need for them to waste any more time in forming an alliance.
The laws of the Empire state that one cannot kill a genius as one pleases. However, if this genius were to look down on others, kill the innocent and overestimate his own capabilities, it would be a completely different story.
"Speak, what's the small matter?" The fourth elder asked snappily.
It was not a secret at all that County Palace and the three sects were wary of Crouching Dragon Villa. Basically, all of Jindan cultivator s knew about it, so unless they were certain that the four of them truly harbored no ill intentions, it was difficult for the four elders to have a good expression and attitude.
The Palace Chief Zhao did not keep him in suspense and smiled: "We are here to look for Wang Hao!"
The fourth elder felt a lump in his chest. His bad premonition from before was about to come true.
From the moment he saw the four of them approaching in a domineering manner, the Fourth Elder had already guessed that they were here for Wang Hao.
Wang Hao had revealed too much of his sharpness recently, Mu Xiu was definitely going to destroy Lin Feng.
Other than Wang Hao threatening the Misty Rain House, the biggest reason why the higher-ups of the Villa were dissatisfied with Wang Hao was indeed too much.
He was drawing aggro, alright?
This kind of peerless heaven's pride expert, other than his owner, which power didn't want to kill him? In fact, there were even many people in the Villa who wished for Wang Hao to die so easily.
The Fourth Elder suppressed the unease in his heart and asked: "Wang Hao is just an inner sect disciple. Although his talent is not bad, he shouldn't be someone that Palace Chief Zhao can look for personally, right? I wonder why Palace Chief Zhao is looking for Wang Hao? "
The smile on Palace Chief Zhao's face faded, and he said angrily: "Fourth Elder might not know this, but this person is not only brazenly threatening Misty Rain House, he also murdered City Lord Yun, and has ruthlessly murdered many of the Yun Family's Upper Sky warrior s. There is also a descendant from the Zheng Family, and this kind of killing is extremely heinous, and it could even be said to be a heinous crime."
"After that, he went to the Mingzhou City to stir up trouble, and stole their resources and money. He did not even let go of their taxes.
"Today, I have come to capture Wang Hao, and County Palace and the three sects have decided to conduct an open trial of Wang Hao together."
"What!"
Palace Chief Zhao did not deliberately lower his voice so that everyone in the Villa could hear him. Not a single one of them was not shocked and they stared dumbfoundedly at the scene.
He actually wanted to capture Young Master Wang!
And they still had to publicly interrogate Young Master Wang!
County Palace and the three major sects will hold the trial together!
Things were getting out of hand!
Some of them were extremely dissatisfied and were extremely angry, cursing County Palace and the three sects for being shameless, randomly charging Young Master Wang with a crime, and exaggerating the crime.
Some of them were secretly rejoicing in their misfortune, and hoped that Young Master Wang would fall. This way, they would have one less person to be afraid of, and they could let go of their worries in the future.
The fourth elder was undoubtedly angry and immediately refused: "Impossible! Those crimes you mentioned do not exist, and the disciples of our Villa do not need you to interrogate them. "
"You!" The higher ups of the Misty Rain House were about to go berserk, but were stopped by the Palace Chief Zhao.
"Fourth Elder, I know that this will make things difficult for Guizhou, but other than that, Wang Hao has indeed killed City Lord Yun, and City Lord Yun is an official person in the empire. Killing Wang Hao for one word or two would truly be against the laws of the empire, and if there is no reasonable explanation, regardless of whether it is in terms of law or logic, it would not be justified!"
"Therefore, I hope that Guizhou can think twice, and make things easier for us, so as to avoid hurting everyone's peace of mind!"
