The iron spikes on the iron whip are all extremely sharp.
The mysterious aura covering it seemed to be able to ignore the barrier of Immortal Qi to a certain extent.
At least, given the cultivation levels of Feng Ye Mu Fusheng, and others, it would be impossible for them to withstand these densely packed iron spikes with their Immortal Qi.
Glancing at the iron spiked whips, Ye Qiubai stepped forward and said calmly, "It seems this isn't an investigation at all, but rather a plan to extract confessions through torture? Perhaps, they've been planning to torture us from the very beginning?"
Feng Ye frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the elders and the dean for doing this?"
"Law enforcement, law enforcement—it seems those two words are nothing but a joke," Xiao Hei sneered.
The hall master first looked at Feng Ye, his previous gloomy expression vanishing, and smiled, " Feng Ye, you can naturally escape suspicion. After all, you are already a senior student of the Chaotic Spirit Academy, and a personal disciple of the Fourth Elder. Naturally, you wouldn't do something that knowingly breaks the law."
Then, turning his gaze to Mu Fusheng and the others, he sneered, "However, these specially admitted students are different. They haven't been with the Chaotic Spirit Academy for long, and they have had direct conflicts with the Second Elder's disciples, so naturally they can't escape suspicion."
It's already been explained very clearly.
It's clearly targeting them.
Feng Ye's face was ashen. "I will report this matter truthfully to my master."
The hall master smiled indifferently and said, "Please go ahead."
Feng Ye glanced at Xiao Hei, then said solemnly to them, "Don't worry, I'll go find Master right away. Hang in there."
After saying that, Feng Ye quickly left the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Alright..." The hall master stood up and clapped his hands. The deacons surrounding Xiao Hei and the others slowly approached, holding iron whips.
"I think you will still deny that Cheng Dahai Yu Cheng's deaths are related to you. Since that's the case, let's see if your words are harder or this iron whip is harder."
"Oh, I forgot to mention, this iron-thorned whip not only ignores your Immortal Qi barriers, but it can also directly stimulate your soul." The hall master's lips curled into an exaggerated smile as he sneered, "The pain that penetrates deep into the soul is not something ordinary people can endure..."
At this point, the hall master glanced at the deacons.
The deacons understood and swung their iron-spike whips, lashing them hard across the bodies of the crowd!
Snap!
The dense iron spikes pierced deep into the flesh of Xiao Hei and the others, and with the pull of the iron spike whip, they continued to tear at various parts of their bodies!
Blood splattered everywhere!
Even flesh and blood were torn out by those iron spikes!
If it were merely physical pain, it wouldn't be a big deal for Xiao Hei and the others.
But the moment the iron spike pierced the flesh, it seemed as if the soul was also torn open by the iron spike!
This pain, so deep it penetrated to the very soul, caused even Xiao Hei to tremble uncontrollably, his eyes instantly becoming bloodshot!
"How's it going? If you can't hold on any longer, you can confess the truth anytime." The hall master grinned as he watched this scene. "Then you won't suffer so much."
Xiao Hei looked coldly at the hall master, "The truth? They just want us to tell them the answer you want to hear."
"Still being stubborn." The hall master waved his hand and laughed, "Then let's continue."
At this moment, Xiao Hei's expression shifted slightly, and he sneered, "I'd like to see if you have the guts to beat us all to death here."
Upon hearing Xiao Hei's words, Ye Qiubai and the others couldn't help but glance at Xiao Hei. They exchanged a look and instantly understood what Xiao Hei was thinking.
He had originally planned to use the sword formation jade pendant given to him by his master, but he put it away at this moment.
Upon hearing Xiao Hei's words, the hall master's face turned ashen.
No one had ever dared to offend him in the Law Enforcement Hall, nor had anyone dared to embarrass him in such a situation!
With a heavy wave of his hand, he shouted angrily, "Don't stop until I say stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the iron whip rained down on Xiao Hei and the others like a storm.
Time passed second by second.
Throughout the entire Chaotic Spirit Academy, countless eyes were fixed on the Law Enforcement Hall.
Rumors that the specially admitted students were connected to the deaths of Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng gradually spread throughout the academy.
Countless inner court students and some personal disciples from within the academy also arrived outside the Law Enforcement Hall, including He Xiangwang, the personal disciple of the Second Elder, and Liang Qing from the Fifth Academy of the Heavenly Class.
Liang Qing followed behind He Xiangwang, head bowed, and chuckled, "This time, those people should be doomed, right?"
He Xiangwang sneered, "He won't die, but his soul will definitely be severely injured. The Iron Spiked Whip of the Law Enforcement Hall is not something an ordinary person can withstand."
With one's soul severely injured, how difficult is it to recover?
Even if it can be recovered, it is very easy to leave behind hidden ailments.
But just then...
Everyone looked up at the sky.
Feng Ye appeared here, following behind an old man.
"Greetings, Fourth Elder!"
Upon seeing this, the students below immediately bowed in respect.
The Fourth Elder slightly lowered his hand and landed in front of the Law Enforcement Hall's gate, but did not enter.
The two elders of the Law Enforcement Hall in front of the gate also frowned slightly upon seeing this scene.
One of the elders immediately went into the Law Enforcement Hall to report.
Another elder stepped forward and asked, "What brings you here, Fourth Elder?"
The Fourth Elder waved his hand and laughed, "It's nothing. I just came here to take a look. I heard that a specially recruited student with exceptional talent has been imprisoned in the Law Enforcement Hall for a serious offense. I want to hear the truth of the matter, whether it's slander or the truth."
"You don't need to worry about me. I know the rules of the Law Enforcement Hall. During enforcement, even the elders of the Inner Court have no right to interfere. I'll just sit here for a while."
After saying that, the Fourth Elder waved his hand, and a wooden chair appeared. He then plopped down on it.
When the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall heard the second half of the Fourth Elder's words, cold sweat immediately soaked their robes.
These words also reached the ears of the hall master.
Glancing at Xiao Hei and the others, whose bodies were covered in blood and mangled beyond recognition, the hall master coldly snorted, "Even the Fourth Elder has no right to interfere in the affairs of the Law Enforcement Hall. As long as they don't admit it, then we won't stop!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei's voice trembled slightly with pain, but a cold smile still appeared on his blood-covered face.
"I advise you to stop now..."
The hall master, enraged, laughed coldly, "Since when did it become the junior's place to teach this hall master how to do things? Keep fighting!"
Outside the Law Enforcement Hall.
Feng Ye stood beside the Fourth Elder and said urgently, "Master, why are you still sitting here?! Hurry up and go in to save them!"
The Fourth Elder smiled and waved his hand, saying, "What did I tell you before I came? Don't worry, this isn't a bad thing for them. Besides... this publicity stunt isn't enough with just me here..."
Building momentum?
Feng Ye was slightly taken aback.
Suddenly, the crowd respectfully parted to make way for an elderly man who walked slowly towards them.
"You old codger, you got here pretty fast."
