"Is someone rebelling against Yang Chun's oppression?"

Li Yunjing and Ma Xingyuan exchanged glances, seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.

For them, this was a good thing!

It was the perfect opportunity to see what backup Yang Chun and his group had. If they were just embroidered pillows, the two of them wouldn't pay Contribution Points either!

Others at the meal, seeing the commotion, also gathered around.

Excitement flashed in their eyes one by one; evidently, they had never seen such a scene before.

Many of them, like Li Yunjing and Ma Xingyuan, held deep grudges against Yang Chun and his group.

At this moment, seeing someone dare to resist, they were thrilled and silently cheered for the resisters.

"Bang!"

Seven or eight people from both sides started brawling, and before long, Yang Chun was sent flying, landing on the ground in a sorry state.

Li Yunjing saw his face bruised in several places, especially his eyes—one big, one small, one black, one purple—clearly the result of heavy blows from others!

This made him smile inwardly.

"Ji Pool! Kong Shi! Are you courting death? How dare you offend the 'Laws Association' members! Brothers, beat them to death for me!"

Despite being on the ground, Yang Chun kept shouting, covering his face with one hand and pointing at Ji Pool and Kong Shi with the other, hollering frantically.

The commotion drew more and more attention, eventually captivating everyone in the dining hall.

Although many dared not resist like Ji Pool and Kong Shi, they all silently cheered in their hearts.

Yang Chun was really detestable, and seeing him get beaten up made everyone feel good.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Suddenly, the onlookers exploded in terrified cries, being knocked away one by one.

Feeling something was wrong, Li Yunjing grabbed Ma Xingyuan and pulled him away from the crowd, retreating to a safe distance.

"Damn it! Are you trying to rebel?"

A sinister voice rang out, making the lively hall suddenly drop a few degrees in temperature.

"Ah?"

Yang Chun, lying on the ground, let out a terrified scream as someone stomped on his head, terror clear in his eyes.

His expression looked as if he had seen the most horrifying thing.

Seeing this, everyone turned their heads to look.

Before Yang Chun stood three orderly rows of people in black Daoist robes, about thirty in total, led by an old Daoist in white hair.

The old Daoist also wore a black robe, but unlike others, his robe was embroidered with small, blood-stained swords.

The old Daoist, short and skinny with a hooked nose and triangular eyes, looked extremely harsh.

It was his cold aura that dropped the temperature several degrees, making everyone shiver involuntarily.

Yang Chun, once extremely arrogant, had been beaten yet still kept shouting to beat Ji Pool and Kong Shi to death.

But now, under the old Daoist's foot, he had turned completely submissive, not daring to utter a word.

Breathing almost stopped, not even daring to take a deep breath.

His tense body showed how terrified Yang Chun was now.

In the hall, it wasn't just Yang Chun who was scared; almost everyone showed signs of fear.

At this moment, the faces of a few Outer Disciples stewards from the "Yaxiang Garden" slightly changed, looking awkward.

They exchanged glances, bit their lips, and stepped forward, bowing to the group.

One of the stewards, with an apologetic look, said, "We apologize! There was a small incident here, we didn't expect it to alarm the Law Enforcement Hall, dear brothers."

"Hmph! This is none of your business!"

The short, skinny, white-haired old Daoist sneered, interrupting the stewards' apologies.

The "Yaxiang Garden" people were helpless but didn't dare say more, standing obediently to the side.

They couldn't handle the situation, nor request leniency.

Secretly cursing Yang Chun for causing trouble daily.

Yang Chun had been oppressing fellow servants and extorting protection fees in "Yaxiang Garden".

These Outer Sect stewards naturally knew.

The issue wasn't big, and Yang Chun had a background, so they turned a blind eye.

Now, Yang Chun had become more arrogant, causing trouble within "Yaxiang Garden" and attracting the Law Enforcement Hall.

This was serious trouble.

They would certainly be punished with lost Contribution Points for poor management.

Whether there would be greater penalties depended on their backers.

Regardless, these Outer Disciples would pay a hefty price in Contribution Points due to Yang Chun, Ji Pool, and Kong Shi's fight.

The Contribution Points might be fines or bribes...

They would definitely pay in some way!

"Those who fought, come here!"

The white-haired old Daoist's voice was cold as he glanced at the injured servant disciples.

Ji Pool, Kong Shi, and Yang Chun's men trembled, obediently stepping forward, heads lowered, not daring to speak.

"Arrest them! Take them for interrogation!"

The old Daoist waved his hand, and the black-clad Daoists stepped forward, locking the seven or eight people with shackles and chaining them together.

Then, the white-haired old Daoist looked down at Yang Chun and sneered, "Your name is Yang Chun?"

"Esteemed Steward, I am Yang Chun, and I..."

Yang Chun said fearfully, trembling all over.

"Heh! I've heard of you, Yang Chun. I know you're arrogant and extort protection fees everywhere. Usually, trash like you is beneath my notice!"

The white-haired old Daoist waved his hand, cutting Yang Chun off.

"But you dared to brawl in public, in front of thousands of fellow disciples—you're not taking the Law Enforcement Hall seriously at all!"

Speaking, he pressed his boot harder on Yang Chun's face.

Only when Yang Chun's face was deformed and bloody did he stop.

The onlookers shivered in fear.

"So ruthless!"

Even Li Yunjing was secretly shocked. He thought the Sect would be all immortal-like, not expecting such cruelty within.

This opened his eyes.

He realized the Sect had its serene side and its dark side.

The Law Enforcement Hall was the most terrifying internal body.

Its main role was to enforce the Sect's laws.

If you broke the rules and were targeted by the Law Enforcement Hall, you'd be finished.

Without a major backer, you'd never get through it lightly.

This time, Yang Chun, due to his arrogance, publicly fought fellow disciples, blatantly breaking the rules, caught red-handed by the Law Enforcement Hall. He wouldn't emerge unscathed.
