Chapter 149: A Piece of Cake

The first floor of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

Xiao Chen, Ge Liuyun, and the Sect Master were all there, and there were also several deacons and core disciples.

Mo Xiu's arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Feeling everyone's gaze, Mo Xiu walked over and looked at the Sect Master, waiting for the other party's question.

The Sect Master also looked at Mo Xiu and said, "Wu Jue, Elder Xiao said that you destroyed the control mechanism of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. Is there such a thing?"

"Control mechanism?" Mo Xiu pretended not to know.

The Sect Master looked at Xiao Chen again, gave Xiao Chen a look, and let Xiao Chen explain it himself.

Xiao Chen glared at Mo Xiu fiercely, and then said, "There were only two people in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion just now, you and Ge Liuyun, if it was not you who destroyed the control mechanism, could it be that it was Ge Liuyun who destroyed it?"

Mo Xiu was speechless when he heard this, so he didn't give Xiao Chen face at all, and said directly, "Are you a fool? Even if you want to blame, at any rate, find a more reasonable statement. The control mechanism is always in your hands; how can I destroy it? Besides, you, the elder who looks over the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, can't even keep a control mechanism, aren't you too useless?"

Xiao Chen's face was very ugly, and he said coldly, "Wu Jue, speak a little more politely. Don't forget that you are only a disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect, and I am the elder of the Seraphic Sword Sect."

"It is against the sky to be an elder here?"

Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, not paying attention.

Xiao Chen shifted his gaze and looked at the Sect Master, begging, "Sect Master, Wu Jue does not respect the sect's etiquette, and speaks rudely to the sect elders, this one asks the Sect Master to punish him severely!"

The Sect Master couldn't help being a little big head.

He could be regarded as seeing Xiao Chen's purpose. This guy was absolutely deliberate. Knowing that the damage to the control mechanism was inseparable from him, he used awkward terms to blame Mo Xiu and let Mo Xiu speak rudely, thus shifting the contradiction.

But Mo Xiu had never respected the sect's etiquette and had always looked rebellious. As far as his attitude was concerned, there was indeed a problem. According to the rules of the Seraphic Sword Sect, he should indeed be punished.

After thinking about it, he said, "That's a horse of another color. Now, I'm talking about the issue of control mechanism."

Xiao Chen suddenly became anxious and said quickly, "Sect Master, this matter seems to be a trivial matter, but it is not trivial. The ancestors' laws are immutable, and the rules of the sect cannot be broken. If we forgive him today, who will take the rules of the sect in the future seriously? Our Seraphic Sword Sect has implemented the sect rules for thousands of years, but will it be abolished sooner or later?"

The Sect Master glanced at Xiao Chen and asked, "What do you want to do with him?"

Xiao Chen looked afraid, "How to deal with him is a matter for the Law Enforcement Hall. I am just advising the Sect Master as a victim and the elder of the sect."

The Sect Master waved his hand, "It's okay, you can talk about your opinion first."

Xiao Chen hesitated for a while before he tentatively said, "In my opinion, it is better to punish him to stay in the Repentance Tower in order to repent for a few days, and then release him before the start of the Spirit Island Trial."

The Sect Master secretly nodded. Fortunately, Xiao Chen was not talking about expelling Mo Xiu from the sect, otherwise, he might doubt whether the elder Xiao Chen was qualified to be an elder here.

If he did not like someone in the sect, he could move his hands and feet a little, but if he disregarded the interests of the sect because of his own personal enmity, such a person was not qualified to be an elder of the sect.

If that was the case, he would abolish Xiao Chen without hesitation, even if the Seraphic Sword Sect had one elder missing.

Since Xiao Chen still knew how to measure, he didn't plan to hit Xiao Chen ruthlessly, but he wouldn't be easily fooled by Xiao Chen about the collapse of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion's control mechanism either.

"I will carefully consider Wu Jue's punishment, and now, I still have to talk about the control mechanism."

The Sect Master said quietly and turned the topic back with a single sentence, "You said that the control mechanism was destroyed by Wu Jue, and Wu Jue said that the control mechanism is always in your hands, and only you have the opportunity to destroy it. Let's not talk about who actually destroyed this control mechanism yet. As the elder who looks over the entire Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, you really have an unshirkable responsibility for failing to keep the control mechanism."

Xiao Chen could see the thoughts of the Sect Master.

Now, he could only bite the needle, "The control mechanism must have been destroyed by Wu Jue, but the Sect Master made sense. I failed to keep the control mechanism. This is my sin, and I am willing to accept punishment from the sect."

The Sect Master nodded lightly, then looked at Mo Xiu, "Wu Jue, what do you say?"

To a certain extent, the collapse of the control mechanism was indeed directly related to Mo Xiu. If he hadn't used his own power to forcibly tear the seventh floor's coercion, the control mechanism would not collapse.

However, if Xiao Chen had not transferred all the pressure to the seventh floor, and wanted to drive him down from the seventh floor, the control mechanism would not collapse.

Therefore, Mo Xiu would not admit that the control mechanism was destroyed by himself, and he would not take this pot.

He did not tell the truth, nor did he shift all the responsibility to Xiao Chen. He just glanced at the debris on the ground and said, "I can fix the control mechanism."

"You can fix the control mechanism?" everyone at the scene suddenly felt a little skeptical.

This was not an ordinary thing, but the control mechanism of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, involving many restrictions and many runes, even those master craftsmen couldn't guarantee that the control mechanism could be repaired.

Mo Xiu only had a cultivation base in the Profound Spirit Realm, and no one here had never heard that he could refine weapons either.

Did he really have this ability, or he was bragging unblushingly instead?

To everyone's skeptical gaze, Mo Xiu seemed very calm, and only said five words, "It's a piece of cake."

After speaking, he raised his hand gently, all the debris on the ground floated over and fell into his hands. And then he used his True Energy to play a few seals and began to repair the control mechanism.

It was very difficult for others to repair the control mechanism that had been broken into pieces, but for him, it was really just a piece of cake.

With his refinement level, he dared not say the strongest, but compared to any refiner in the Seraphic Sword Sect, his level was countless worlds different, but his cultivation base was not enough, so many things could not be refined.

It might not be so easy for him to re-refine a control mechanism, but repairing the control mechanism was much easier for him than re-refining one.

A pile of debris levitated and revolved in mid-air, a soft white light burst out soon after. All the debris was reorganized, and it only took a short while to return the appearance of the reduced version of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion back into one piece.

After that, Mo Xiu played a series of seals to restore the original functions of the control mechanism.

The people who watched all around were very suspicious of Mo Xiu's words at first, but it could be seen that Mo Xiu repaired it in a good manner, so they began to believe a little bit in their hearts.

When all the fragments were reconstructed to look like a reduced version of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, everyone no longer doubted it, and only shock was left in their hearts.

After a while, the control mechanism of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion made a hum, and even the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion that everyone was staying in was also shaking.

After the abnormal sound, Mo Xiu put away his True Energy, raised his hand and waved, the control mechanism fell into the hands of the Sect Master at once.

The Sect Master hurriedly checked and found that after only such a short period of time, the control mechanism had indeed been repaired by Mo Xiu.

Not only had it been repaired, but the control mechanism after the restoration seemed to be more stable than the original control mechanism and had a stronger control effect on the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. This discovery made him even more shocked.

"Do you know how to refine tools?" he couldn't help asking.

"I understand it a little," Mo Xiu nodded lightly.

The Sect Master blinked his eyes suspiciously, and quickly shifted away, turning his head to look at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen was a little embarrassed at once, and said in a nonchalant manner, "Sect Master, since the control mechanism has been repaired, how about we erase the punishment…"

The Sect Master snorted coldly and announced, "Wu Jue does not respect the courtesy of the sect. He speaks harshly to the elders of the sect and should be punished. However, he made his merits in restoring the control mechanism of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and as a result, his previous punishment is not available anymore. On the contrary, Elder Xiao Chen, the elder responsible for guarding the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion failed to keep the control mechanism. In this case, he should be punished. He will repent for three months inside the Repentance Tower."

Xiao Chen's face changed, and he wanted to say something, but saw the Sect Master glanced at him, so he swallowed all the words back. But his face was already pale and his figure staggered as if he had lost all the strength at this moment.

The Sect Master waved his hand, "Take him away!"

Immediately, two deacons stepped forward and escorted Xiao Chen away from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to the Repentance Tower.

The Repentance Tower was a place specially used to let people stay inside to think about life. There was no Spiritual Energy in it, so it was impossible to cultivate. Before entering, the victim's cultivation base will be blocked, which was no different from ordinary people.

To stay in the Repentance Tower for three months was a very heavy punishment for the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect.

However, Mo Xiu would not sympathize with Xiao Chen, this was Xiao Chen's self-inflicted method.

When Xiao Chen was taken away and everyone dispersed, the Sect Master looked at Mo Xiu.

"I heard you went to the seventh floor?"

"Yeah."

"On the seventh floor is Seraphic Sword Everlasting."

"I know."

"Do you plan to practice this technique?"

"Correct."

"This technique is extremely difficult to practice. You can try it first. But if you haven't grasped the essence before heading to Spirit Island, then just give up and try other techniques instead."

"..."

Mo Xiu naturally didn't need to give up, this technique was the only one that could enter his eyes.

The Sect Master didn't know his situation, and he was too lazy to say anything, anyway, he would know by then.

After leaving the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, Mo Xiu found a no-man place, avoided the detection of others' Divine Consciousness, took out his sword, and practiced the Seraphic Sword Everlasting Technique accompanied by Yuan Rou.

A few days passed in a flash, and the day to go to Spirit Island had already come.

Mo Xiu went to the combat field at Divine Sword Peak according to the stipulated time.

A huge flying ship was parked in the center of the combat field. Many disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect had gathered in the combat field. Most of them were core disciples, and only a few were inner disciples.

Mo Xiu also saw several acquaintances. Zhuo Yuchen among the inner disciples, and Cen Danqiu and Ge Liuyun among the core disciples.

The Sect Master was also there, the Sect Master had to lead the team to the Spirit Island.

On the contrary, Song Shenxue, the chief disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect, did not appear, but Song Shenxue's cultivation had already reached the Abstruse Form Condensation Realm and could not enter Spirit Island, so it was not surprising that she did not show up.

Most people turned a blind eye to Mo Xiu's arrival, but there were still many people who were obviously hostile.

Mo Xiu didn't care, but silently remembered those who were hostile to him, and stood by and waited with the others.

After everyone arrived, the Sect Master gave an order to everyone to enter the flying ship.

After that, the flying ship took off, left the Seraphic Sword Sect, and flew in the direction of Spirit Island.
