Waves of power pulsed from the Law Whip, radiating terrifying might. Lu Chaosheng's expression changed at once as he knelt on the ground, and he tried to scramble up and dodge.
If that whip struck him, torn flesh would be the least of his worries. More likely, he would die on the spot.
But Wangyou True Person was an Ascension Realm powerhouse of the Qi Sea Uniting Spirit Dao, capable of matching an Immortal Lord of the Qi Refining Dao. Even a casual strike from her was beyond the ability of a Spirit Transformation cultivator like Lu Chaosheng to evade.
It was already clear that the Law Whip would fall before Lu Chaosheng could dodge, lashing him into a mist of blood.

An aged, withered hand reached out and caught the Law Whip Wangyou True Person had swung, blood seeping between its fingers.
True Person Hecong stood before Lu Chaosheng and said, "Ah! Elder Wangyou, calm down, please calm down! This wretch may have committed a grave wrong, but killing him outright would go against the rules. When the sect master and the others return, it might be difficult to explain. Besides, this mistake wasn't entirely Lu Chaosheng's fault."
"Yes, yes! It wasn't entirely my fault. That Demon Fiend was vicious and unreasonable, insisting on killing me!" Lu Chaosheng hurriedly chimed in. The leg he had just raised dropped back into a kneel, and he kowtowed furiously as he pleaded his case.
Wangyou True Person withdrew her whip and snorted coldly. She unleashed her Ascension Realm pressure, sending Lu Chaosheng flying backward to land outside the Grand Hua Jade Heaven Sect's great hall.
"Go to the Disciplinary Hall and accept your punishment."
Wangyou True Person's voice came from within the hall.
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you
