Chapter 10: The Lost Pearl of the Vast Sea
Weisheng Qi was skeptical, but his grip relaxed. Lan Xiaochi said, "Even if I had the greatest courage, I would not dare to deceive you, Uncle Weisheng!"
Lan Xiaochi hesitated for a moment and asked, "If I plead guilty, will you refrain from imposing the full penalty or reduce it?"
Wei Shengqi let out a sigh of relief; that little sprite truly did not deceive him. He walked to the stone prison and said: "How dare you leave Jiuwai Mountain without permission, becoming increasingly ignorant of the rules"
He Yu-tai wept inconsolably, pointing towards the Immortal Heart Spring. Liu Bing-yan's heart shattered, and without regard for anything else, he leaped into the water to search. Wen Mi had already seen Lan Xiao-chi, who had been immobilized, and as he approached, he frowned—this was the acupoint sealing technique of the Wei Sheng family. Who has been to Jiu Wei Mountain?
Lan Xiaochi was taken aback—Microbial Divergence! Why does Microbial Divergence appear in the Tai Chi Chui Guang?
Liu Bingyan said: "I also know that prioritizing personal matters over public ones goes against the principles of the Xianxin Pavilion, but when it comes to my beloved child, it is inevitable that concern leads to confusion. Please punish me, Pavilion Master." He is an elder, and in front of the disciples, he must set an example. Otherwise, how can the rules of the Xianxin Pavilion command respect from the public
When Wen Mi rushed over, he saw several wounds on Liu Fengchao's body. He hurriedly tried to stop the bleeding, but after all, each field has its own expertise, and he could not do much else.
Mu Xiangyi glanced at He Yutai and said, "Not going to kill her?"
Lan Xiaochi is not very afraid either; after all, she has never tried this special nail. Just hearing about it doesn't sound too formidable. A few nails, how much pain could that possibly cause?
Lan Xiaochi was caught in his hand, and Mu Xiangyi received that blow, knowing that there was no way to escape. Just as she hesitated, Lan Xiaochi angrily shouted: "Run!"
Lan Fei said: "What danger is there? She had an incident at Taiji Chui Guang. If a person is in the hands of Wei Sheng Lao Dai, Wei Sheng Lao Dai would not kill her for the sake of Xiao Dai. If a person is at Xian Xin Ge, ha, that would be wonderful"
Lan Fei glanced at him, and Ha Di let out a chuckle. The round fan swayed gently, and her expression was one of comfort.
Muxiangyi said: "What this disciple has witnessed with his own eyes is absolutely true."
Weibingqi emerged from the stone prison, his eyes filled with exhaustion. Having lost Murong Xiu, he no longer knew what to do.
Lan Xiaochi said: "Do you have a grudge against her at www.hetushu.com? Don't be so ruthless." Mu Xiangyi did not seem to appreciate this, so Lan Xiaochi had to add: "Her foundation is weak; keeping her around will only drag down Wen Mi."
In the midst of speaking, a palm struck over. In a moment of urgency, Lan Xiaochi and Mu Xiangyi joined forces to block it, both spitting out a mouthful of blood. This was still because Wei Shengqi only intended to capture her to inquire about Wei Shengci's whereabouts, and did not intend to kill.
Wen Mi said: "The principles of law are ultimately rooted in human feelings. The injuries caused by the wind and the rain, I too am anxious about. The elders need not blame themselves. When the fellow practitioners of the rivers and lakes present evidence of this woman's wrongdoing, I will act according to the law after verification"
The public notice from the Xianxin Pavilion quickly spread throughout the martial arts world, prompting responses from various sects. Numerous cases were reported. Wen Mi assigned dedicated personnel to investigate, and after three days, only two incidents could be substantiated: the assassination of Liu Fengchao, the injury of He Yutai, and the severing of Lian Jing's tendons.
At this moment, Liu Bingyan pulled Liu Fengchao out of the Xianxin Spring, his eyes blood-red, as if he were ready to devour someone: "Fengchao!"
The Wenzi Mingxian Heart Pavilion has issued a public notice, stating the capture of the feathered clan demoness, Lan Xiaochi. All sects and factions are required to submit her past offenses. After verification from all parties, she will be punished according to her crimes
A disciple responded and came in, dragging Lan Xiaochi into the Xianxin Pavilion. Liu Bingyan had been guarding Liu Fengchao's side, and upon seeing that Yun Caizhen had finished taking the pulse, he trembled and asked: "Doctor Yun, how is it?"
Microbiome was taken aback and immediately stepped forward a few paces. Blue Little Wing was already desperately fleeing, but he was no match for him. In just a moment, he was caught again.
Liu Bingyan also used his energy to protect Liu Fengchao's heart meridian, until Yun Caizhen arrived. Only then did Wen Mi ask He Yutai: "What happened?"
Liu Bingyan bowed and said: "Yes."
The disciple delivering the meal snorted, dropped the water and food, and left. Although there was no abuse, it was impossible to expect a pleasant demeanor.
Without further hesitation, Mu Xiangyi turned around and ran away! Wei Shengqi could not afford to chase after her, but only asked Lan Xiaochi: "Has Xiao Ci ever been to Fanghu Yongcui?"
Muxiang lowered her head, and Lan Fei asked again: "Has Liu Fengchao died? Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Mu www.hetushu.com.com Xiangyi urgently said: "Master, the young lady's situation is critical now!"
She was hoisted to the Dan Cliff's green wall, which rises over one hundred zhang high. At the time of execution, the severing nails would pierce the person onto the green wall. Blood flowed slowly like a long line.
The moss sent a signal, and Lan Xiaochi knew that this time it was a bit dire, remaining silent. Before long, the head of the Xianxin Pavilion, Wen Mi, and Elder Liu Bingyan were the first to arrive.
Mu Xiangyi cautiously said: "Master means that when a person is in the hands of the Immortal Heart Pavilion, it is easy to be rescued"
Weed out the flowers he has planted, kill the birds he has raised, and isolate everything that could influence his mind. Then, when he is lost in thought, turn him into a rag.
Lapis lazuli said: "You are quite incompetent"
Lan Xiaochi said: "Damn it! I refuse to acknowledge it!"
The events of that year suddenly cut through the pupils like a blade. Wen Mi's hands trembled violently as she opened the letter.
Wei Shengqi released her, and she ran away frantically. Wei Shengqi then cut the rope binding He Yutai on the ground with another sword. He Yutai got up and immediately cried out: "Senior Wei Sheng, that demoness killed my senior brother Liu Fengchao! Quickly capture her!"
After enduring the wind and sun for seven days, if one does not die, then the punishment is complete
Yun Caizhen said: "With me here, there is no need to worry. Help me move him to the Misty Rain and Illusory Mountains"
Lan Xiaochi heard about it and asked, "I have indeed heard of the Absolute Pulse Nail, is it really that powerful?"
Upon opening the riddle, one sees the exquisite and delicate handwriting of the blue jade—once a bright pearl, now returned. Cherish it dearly, and do not abandon it again
Mu Xiangyi knelt for a long time before Lan Fei's residence. Lan Fei made him kneel for two full hours before allowing him to enter. Mu Xiangyi knelt on the ground and bowed deeply, saying: "Disciple is incompetent, which has led to the young lady falling into the hands of Wei Shengqi. I earnestly request Master to provide assistance."
Wen Mi said: "Ice Rock, the Wind Nest almost killed the direct disciple of Blue Fei before. She has come here to seek revenge. There is a reason for this, thus imposing the death penalty for this matter is unjust."
He was just born, and the Microbirth Society had high hopes for him. At the age of four, he began his enlightenment, and from then on, he practiced martial arts every day. As a small child, he was always distracted. He loved flowers, loved grass, loved sunshine, and loved everything except for practicing martial arts and reading books.
Ah, just like when I was a child, I cannot obtain anything I like
He waved his hand, and the disciples on either side stepped forward to set up the blue wings, just as they were about to carry out the execution, when suddenly someone outside called out loudly: "Which one is Lord Wen?"
She, however, does not know that the Immortal Heart Pavilion is different from the Feather Clan. Although Liu Bingyan of the Immortal Heart Pavilion wishes to skin her alive, Liu Bingyan is an elder and also a senior.
The square pot embraces the emerald green
After the execution of punishment, there are not a few who have gone mad. However, there are indeed some who, out of fear of this cruel torture, have turned away from evil and embraced goodness, transforming themselves completely
Lan Xiaochi was choked to the point of rolling her eyes: "I've been there, loosen your grip a bit, you're going to strangle me!"
Ding Jueyin said: "You are dreaming!"
Where is he now
After speaking, a letter was presented. Everyone was in an uproar. Liu Bingyan took the letter and handed it to Wen Mi
The judgment has been rendered; although some may perceive it as unjust, there is indeed no evidence of wrongdoing that can be presented, thus it must stand as such
Lan Xiaochi picked up the bowl of water, a look of hesitation on her face—could it be that she intends to poison me directly? However, both the water and the rice appeared normal.
As everyone fell silent, they immediately turned around. They saw a man dressed as a farmer shouting: "Lord Wen, a man with wings named Lan Fei asked me to convey a message to you, saying that Lan Xiao Chi is your daughter"
Tai Chi Chui Guang, Xian Xin Ge. Lan Xiao Chi sat on the ground, having found that the anticipated torture, abuse, and coercive interrogation did not occur.
Wen Mi is also somewhat troubled, unable to fathom how this demoness, notorious for her misdeeds in the martial world, still cannot be found guilty of murder. Ultimately, after deliberation by the four elders of the Xianxin Pavilion, the verdict is to be taken to the Dan Cliff and the Green Wall, where she will be nailed with four fatal nails.
Weishengqi arrived at the Xianxin Spring, looked around, and did not see Weishengci. Just as he was about to inquire further, he suddenly noticed a person lying on the ground. Observing his attire, it was evident that he was a disciple of the Xianxin Pavilion. He immediately exclaimed in anger: "How bold of this demoness to dare commit evil in the Taiji Chui Guang!"
Everyone was speechless
Upon seeing He Yutai, Wen Mi frowned and asked, "What is the matter?"
Ding Jueyin waved his hand, and a disciple presented the Jue Mai Nail. Lan Xiaochi focused his gaze and immediately felt intimidated! Who on earth named it the Jue Mai Nail? Is it really as large as the one in your family's *Illustrated Book*?
The Misty Rain and Illusory Mountains is truly the residence of Yun Caizhen, and Liu Fengchao hurriedly and cautiously picked up Liu Fengchao. The two of them paid no attention to Lan Xiaochi and hurriedly left.
Thus, the reaction that Weishengqi received was one of indifference. He said: "Xiao Ci, you must believe in your father; your father is doing this for your own good! That girl is so ruthless, she is not someone you can handle. Are you willing to make enemies with the world for her?"
Muxiangyi listened carefully and said, "The sound is familiar!"
Yet there is still no response, akin to the silent despair that has persisted over the past twelve years
Elder Ding Jueyin read out the charges against Lan Xiaochi, listing the witnesses and evidence. After verifying everything multiple times without error, he announced the execution
Lan Fei said: "So how can you say you are foolish? You should have beheaded him, that way I would not have to worry whether Yun Cai's medical skills are as perverse as Mu Bingyan's."
Wen Mi was taken aback, and beside him, Liu Bingyan's eyes instantly turned red: "What? Where are the Wind Nest people?"
Liu Bingyan angrily said: "She dares to kill in the Taiji Chui Guang, is that not enough to warrant the death penalty?"
Reaching out to restrain several key points on Lan Xiaochi's body, he turned and left
He Yu-tai let out a mournful cry, tears of blood welling in her eyes. Lan Xiao-chi pulled her out and tossed her outside the water, saying: "Let’s go"
She was a bit curious when suddenly a disciple brought in a bowl of plain rice and a plate of pickled vegetables. Although it was a very simple meal, Lan Xiaochi was truly shocked—I've killed your senior brother! Aren't you going to take revenge?
On this day, the righteous forces of the martial world gathered at the Dan Cliff and the Green Wall. Wen Mi occupied the high seat, with the four elders of the Xianxin Pavilion positioned on either side. The disciples stood with their swords drawn.
Liufengchao is his son
He Yu cried out in despair: "Master! Senior Brother... Senior Brother has... been killed by the feathered tribe demon!"
Ding Jueyin raised the Absolute Pulse Nail and asked: "Lan Xiaochi, do you plead guilty?"
Then, as you wish, I will practice martial arts for the rest of my life, until the day I die
Ah, what a distant matter. So distant that I have forgotten whether there were moments of warmth between father and son
Although the disciples of the Immortal Heart Pavilion hated her intensely, without orders from above, no one dared to mistreat the prisoner. Even if they were guilty, the righteous sects could not take the law into their own hands.
He Yu-tai revealed the matter of Lan Xiao-chi plotting against Liu Feng-chao, and Wen Mi glanced at Lan Xiao-chi—Lan Fei's daughter? The scabbed wound in his heart was torn open again, and he said: "Take her down and detain her first"
There are a total of seven acupoint nails; if all seven are inserted, the person is certain to die. With four inserted, there may still be a chance of survival. However, once the acupoint nails are embedded in the body, even the most extraordinary master cannot utilize even a fraction of their internal energy. The nails are imbued with a peculiar poison that can render a person mentally alert while inflicting excruciating pain as if their heart were being gouged out
The methods of education are crude yet effective, and the young children quickly reveal their talent in martial arts in order to avoid punishment
However, no one sought revenge; only the disciple who brought food glared at her angrily and muttered a curse—"demoness!" Yet, the food and water were still placed outside the cell where she could reach them.
Another disciple rushed over, while Wen Mi was bandaging He Yutai's leg injury, he said: "Go and invite Doctor Yun to come over"
Lan Xiaochi pushed him and said, "Hurry up!"
Suddenly, I find myself missing Wei Shengci a bit. If he were here, perhaps he could save her. Alas, I wonder if he has found the way back to Jiwei Mountain.
Just as the two were about to leave, someone suddenly came running from a distance. Just as Lan Xiaochi was about to go, another figure rushed over, and a deep voice said: "Little fairy, is Xiao Ci with you?!"
Lan Xiaochi said: "I advised him to return to Jiuwei Mountain, and he should have already gone back by now"
Ding Jueyin said: "It does not matter if you do not acknowledge it, the Jue Mai Nail will help you understand it clearly"
At this moment, He Yutai was making an effort to drag the willow wind nest from the spring water, while Wei Shengqi did not want to concern himself with the trivial matters of the Xianxin Pavilion, saying: "I am leaving, you can find someone to help you yourself"
At this moment, Jiuwai Mountain
The fragrance of the wood-scented garment is indeed reasonable
Certainly, one cannot lower oneself to take action against a junior.
However, it is too late; how can their speed be compared to that of microorganisms?
When Wei Shengqi arrived, Bu Hanchan had already come: "Master, the young master has returned and is currently practicing in the stone prison."
Weishengci did not pay attention to him—Lan Xiaochi said it was his father who forbade them from associating, and he remembered that clearly
All the representatives from various schools and sects are prominent figures, thus the scene remains relatively quiet
