In the war between humans and demons, it's not unreasonable for me to absorb demonic energy, is

"Tell the High Hall Master in detail what you know and have seen. You go first!" Elder Mochou pointed with her jade hand and instructed.

Upon hearing this, Li Lianying took a step forward, glanced at Fan Tong somewhat awkwardly, and bowed to the person in the seat of honor, saying, "Greetings, High Hall Master. I am the steward in charge of servants and disciples, and I directly manage Fan Tong."

"After I informed Fan Tong that he was going out with the disciples of Baibaoshan, he specifically asked me if Bai Jie would go along. After I answered yes, I vaguely heard Fan Tong mutter something like, 'It's a good opportunity to settle scores and avenge wrongs.'"

"Your Highness, that's all I heard!" Li Lianying bowed again, took two steps back, and stood back among the crowd.

"Sect Master Gao, I am Bai Jie's younger brother, Bai Chi. I have been complaining about Fan Tong's oppression and enslavement of disciples and outer sect disciples for a long time! I have been bullied by Fan Tong for the past five years. Just a few days ago, my sister learned about this situation and wanted to seek justice for me, but she was also injured by Fan Tong using despicable means!"

Bai Chi, with tears streaming down his face, accused Fan Tong of all his crimes, even recounting every single instance of Fan Tong's beatings of him in detail. Of course, he made no mention of the first time he had beaten Fan Tong so badly that he had crawled back to the warehouse.

"Very well! I understand your explanations. You should know that daring to lie in my Enforcement Hall will have consequences you don't want to experience." The Enforcement Hall Master exuded an imposing aura, his intense pressure making it hard to breathe.

"Please calm down, Lord Gao. These witnesses were entrusted to me by the Grand Elder. If anything goes wrong with them, I cannot bear the responsibility."

Elder Mochou suddenly spoke up, even deliberately mentioning the Grand Elder, which startled the Law Enforcement Hall Master.

"What evidence do the remaining three have to prove?" The Hall Master of Law Enforcement glanced at Elder Mochou and then addressed the three who had remained silent.

"Your Highness, we three witnessed Fan Tong's attack on Bai Jie!" One of the three stepped forward, a disciple of Baibaoshan, and answered firmly.

"Oh? Then you'll have to explain in detail!" The Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall was curious and couldn't help but urge him on.

Fan Tong, standing in the main hall of the Law Enforcement Hall, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat!

"That night, the three of us were picking spiritual herbs and medicines. When we came to a secluded valley, we saw that Senior Sister Bai Jie was seriously injured. We originally wanted to go over and say hello."

"Unexpectedly, Fan Tong, that villain, suddenly jumped out from the side and started arguing with Senior Sister Bai Jie. Before long, the two started fighting."

"Just as we were about to step forward to help, Fan Tong suddenly drew a flying sword from his body and, taking advantage of Senior Sister Bai Jie's carelessness, instantly killed her!"

Seeing this, the three of us had no choice but to hide ourselves carefully, fearing that Fan Tong would discover us and harm our lives!

When the disciples of Baibaoshan were saying these words, they seemed to be looking at Fan Tong, who had a mocking expression, with fear on their faces.

"Fan Tong, I see you seem to have a different opinion. You can explain it." After listening, the Master of the Law Enforcement Hall quickly noticed Fan Tong's unusual behavior.

"Thank you, Hall Master Gao. The statements of these so-called witnesses are all utter nonsense! Li Lianying is a despicable villain, and Bai Chi never mentioned any bullying against me. As for these three senior brothers, I have never even met them. Their claim that I killed Bai Jie with a flying sword is utter rubbish!"

Fan Tong met the gaze of the Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall with composure, and firmly refuted the so-called testimonies of the others.

"Insolence! How dare you say that the witness recommended by the Grand Elder is nonsense? You truly have no sense of hierarchy! I think you'd better confess your crimes and pay for my disciple's life, so you can avoid suffering!"

Upon hearing Fan Tong's words, Elder Mochou's already cold tone became even colder.

"Sect Master Gao, now that we have witness testimonies, why not execute this murderer immediately to uphold the dignity of the sect rules and avenge my disciple's death!"

"Elder Mochou, please don't be hasty. Both sides have conflicting accounts, and there are still many things that need further investigation. It would be against the rules to end this so hastily. Perhaps we should let the Enforcement Hall look for other evidence?"

Upon hearing the words of the Hall Master of Enforcement, Elder Mochou stood up, moved lightly to the Hall Master's side, and said softly.

"Palace Master Gao, what's there to investigate further? If you find this difficult, let me tell you again: the Grand Elder is very concerned about this matter and wants to see a result today!"

“But…but Fan Tong’s identity is truly special. Simply executing him like this might not satisfy the public!” The Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall looked troubled, but what he was really thinking was anyone’s guess.

"It's precisely because of his special status that we must act swiftly and decisively. Otherwise, if we offend the Grand Elder, you might not be able to live so peacefully in the sect in the future!"

Elder Mochou's lips twitched slightly, seemingly revealing a smile, but her words were full of threat.

"In that case, how about..."

Ding! Ding! Ding!

A distant chime interrupted the Lord of Law Enforcement's words!

Upon hearing the bell toll, the Hall Master of Law Enforcement immediately stood up. "The Wind Bell tolls five times; this summons the elders of the sect. Elder Mochou, we should hurry to the meeting. As for Fan Tong's matter, we'll decide on it after the meeting!"

"Alas! Of course, the sect's affairs are more important!" Elder Mochou said helplessly. She had finally forced the Law Enforcement Hall Master into a corner, but this mishap still happened.

However, the sect rules were paramount, so she could only obediently follow the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall and several deputy hall masters as they took to the air, heading straight for the Fengqing Sect's council hall.

Watching the Palace Master and Elders leave at breakneck speed, the people in the Enforcement Hall exchanged bewildered glances, especially Li Lianying, that vile woman, whose embarrassment was even more pronounced.

"Fan Tong, let me tell you, you killed my sister, and I will definitely make you pay with your life!" Bai Chi shouted again, seeing that his side had the upper hand.

"If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a pretext. Show me all your tricks and see if they can take my life." Fan Tong's face was also gloomy.

Looking at the three disciples who claimed to have witnessed him killing Bai Jie, and listening to Elder Mochou's words, Fan Tong understood that, just as Biluo had said, some people could no longer tolerate him.

His mind was far from calm as it appeared; he was racking his brains for a solution to the immediate problem, given his own weakness and lack of resources. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find a good solution!

Ultimately, it was a matter of insufficient strength. If one were strong enough, one wouldn't need to care about such trivial matters. Anyone who dared to argue with them would be dealt with with a single punch!

"Everyone, let's take our seats for now and wait for the Palace Master and the others to return before making a decision. However, in the meantime, please keep quiet and refrain from making any noise in the Enforcement Hall!"

As a true disciple, Zong Bujiu was considered the host. He invited Fan Tong and the others to sit down, then closed his eyes and silently began to cultivate.
