Chapter 621

"If my guess is correct, the cause of this is those idiots from the Pill Tower's Huo family. They're the ones most likely to give the higher-ups pressure.
"As for the higher-ups, they care the most about profit. To them, this matter is nothing more than sending a disciple away for a few months. Giving a light punishment to a disciple in order to keep the peace with the Pill Tower is definitely worth it to them. Tell me sister, am I right?" smiled Long Chen.
"Up to now, there are only three powers capable of giving pressure to the Xuantian Dao Sect. Through process of elimination, it's easy to guess who the guilty party is." explained Long Chen.
"This matter was mostly because of the Zhou family. They acted as a go-between, advocating for this decision with their full strength. After all, it's as you said. They just want to have a disciple lower his head. They don't want your life. So they decided to give face to the Pill Tower instead of offending them to give face to a disciple.
"My Shui family fought the decision, but unfortunately, the other three families cared more about the benefits, and they decided this matter was a must. In fact, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you, so I'll tell you that although you might be considered someone on the side of my Shui family, the rest of the Shui family also thought this was just a minor matter. There was no need for them to fight too fiercely against the others for this.
"Thus, they ordered me to sentence you. Furthermore, in order to make it so the Pill Tower could see it, they made me gather all the monastery sect leaders as well, having me sentence you in front of all of them." Shui Wuhen bitterly smiled. She felt extremely powerless. She had been unable to change the orders of the higher-ups.
Shui then explains the situation of Martial Heaven Continent and organization of Xuantian Dao Sect.
LC then explains that the chaos region was full of fighting and Evil Path disciples. But he also said this was an opportunity for LC to strengthen himself.
