Dole listened quietly with a bitter smile. “Senior Sister Lin, please spare me.”
He still hoped to survive.
But everyone knew that no one would give him that chance.
Since that was the case, why bother begging for something impossible?
At least for now, it seemed a bit like not causing trouble for his sect.
It was a bit of a contribution.
“I’ve understood the whole situation. It isn’t your fault, and the sect shouldn’t restrict your freedom. But the sect is small, and there’s no way around it. So, I wanted to ask you, is there anything you want to do but can’t?” Senior Sister Lin kindly asked.
Dole breathed a sigh of relief. He had something he needed to do.
“Yes.”
“What is it?” Senior Sister Lin asked curiously.
“I met two people in the Corpse Realm. We were mining together to earn some spirit stones, but they disappeared in the last few months. I couldn’t deliver their share of spirit stones to them.”
“How many spirit stones?”
“Seventy thousand. If you are willing to help me, I can give you twenty thousand spirit stones. Please find a way to deliver the rest to them. There are also some ores left.”
“Seventy thousand?”
Senior Sister Lin was surprised. Seventy thousand was not a small amount.
A Golden Core Realm cultivator with so many spirit stones was still willingly offering them to someone else…
Was he truly this selfless?
“Sure.” Senior Sister Lin nodded with a smile.
Dole hesitated but eventually agreed.
He might lose the chance, so even if she took the spirit stones for herself, he had no choice but to agree.
Once he was taken away, his possessions would be confiscated anyway.
In the end, Dole gave her seventy thousand spirit stones and some ores.
After receiving them, she left.
Dole was left standing alone.
He didn’t know if he had been played.
He could only quietly wait for people from other sects to arrive.
Seven days later, people from a major sect came to visit.
Many people knew the reason. The visit had to do with Dole.
“Dole was so powerful in the realm, but now… it’s all so tragic.”
“Yeah. Although I didn’t enter, I know that for someone at the Golden Core Realm to act so arrogantly in front of a Primordial Spirit Realm wouldn’t be taken lightly. It’s beyond his capabilities. His downfall is unavoidable.”
“In truth, Dole is innocent. He has no choice.”
“Don’t say such things.. What can our sect do anyway?”
“Shh… How can you say that?”
The people of the Mountain River Valley Sect were ready to do what needed to be done.
When they were about to hand over Dole, another sect arrived.
At that moment, they started discussing.
Dole thought he would face his death today.
But he didn’t expect them to discuss his fate for seven consecutive days.
People from nearby sects also arrived.
Dole’s fate became even more difficult to decide with more people present.
They planned to conduct an interrogation outside the Mountain River Valley Sect.
When Dole was taken away by two Senior Brothers, he felt despair.
He had prepared himself to be taken away, but he wasn’t prepared for an interrogation.
Many people in the sect knew him. Some juniors looked up to him.
He had always been reliable. He now felt ashamed.
This was a fatal blow to him.
At that moment, he even thought of harming himself just to avoid this.
At least, he wouldn’t have to endure such humiliation.
However, it was too late.
His power was suppressed, and all he could do was stand there.
Outside the valley, on a high platform, Dole stood in the middle. He was surrounded by seven powerful people.
Among them was a middle-aged man with some white hair who glared at Dole.
“Did you cause the death of my disciple?” the man asked. Dole lowered his head and didn’t dare speak,
“Who murdered them?” the middle-aged man asked again.
Still, Dole remained silent.
The man raised a whip, charged with thunder, and lashed out.
It tore Dole’s flesh. Dole was in excruciating pain.
“Speak! Perhaps we can spare your life,” said an icy voice of a woman.
Seeing that Dole remained unyielding, she attacked and left several bloody holes in Dole’s thighs.
At that moment, attacks and spells hurt Dole from all sides.
His agonizing screams rang out.
He couldn’t take it anymore. He muttered something about Smiling San Sheng, but it was only related to mining and nothing else. It wasn’t what they wanted to hear.
The techniques surged again. It was going to shatter Dole’s soul.
People from the Mountain River Valley Sect felt regretful.
Senior Sister Lin looked at the platform and shook her head sadly.
Their sect was truly incompetent. They allowed these people to treat Dole in such a way at their own doorstep.
What could a disciple like her do?
Far away, Guan Zhongfei observed everything in hiding. He didn’t dare approach Dole.
He could only watch silently.
As he had expected, Dole couldn’t escape danger.
Even if he wanted to give him his share of spirit stones, it was too late.
The screams resonated everywhere. The people of the Mountain River Valley Sect were silent.
At first, they were watching the spectacle, but soon, they felt as if they were watching themselves being flogged.
They realized that the sect wouldn’t stand up for any of them.
It was Dole today. Tomorrow, it could be them.
His wretched screams struck their hearts.
It made them feel sad and frustrated.
However, no matter how much he screamed, the people of the Mountain River
Valley Sect didn’t act. It disturbed Yan Yuezhi, who awoke from her meditation.
She immediately stood up.
“Oh no! It’s time!”
She had been waiting. Then, she had become so engrossed in her meditation that she was late.
The screams rang in her ears once again.
She turned to see a man chained on a platform. He was injured and bleeding. His soul was almost at its brink.
“Dole, I’ll ask you once again! What information do you have about that person?!” shouted an angry voice.
‘Dole?’
Yan Yuezhi was shocked.
At that moment, the whip of thunder was about to fall again. “Dole, you asked for this. Your death is your own doing!”
In an instant, the onlookers knew Dole was doomed.
With that strike, he wouldn’t live for much longer.
Guan Zhongfei sighed.
The people of the Mountain River Valley Sect also couldn’t bear it.
Dole’s vision was blurry. He knew he couldn’t hold on for much longer.
However, just when everyone thought the whip of thunder was about to strike, slender hands grabbed it and stopped it.
The sudden turn of events surprised everyone.
It made the middle-aged man even angrier. “How dare you meddle in affairs you know nothing about?”
Yan Yuezhi’s anger flared as she looked at Dole who was fatally injured.
She had almost failed in her task.
These people had almost ruined her chance of getting that book! A coldness emerged. She turned to look at the middle-aged man.
Then, she vanished.
Under everyone’s gaze, she reappeared in front of the middle-aged man.
Ink appeared out of thin air and covered the middle-aged man.
With a bang, he was reduced to ashes.
Those who had wanted to act watched in astonishment.
This technique was of the Astronomical Academy.
But why would someone from the Astronomical Academy appear here?
“Immortal, this is our personal matter. No matter how influential the academy is, they cannot interfere in this,” said the woman from before.
At that moment, an elder said, “The Astronomical Academy is outstanding, but they can’t harass others like this!”
Guan Zhongfei was astonished.
Why would someone from the Astronomical Academy come here?
It was impossible..
