Chapter 328: The Sentence
"Your Excellency, Vice Hall Master, I am innocent! I have cultivated in Flawless Palace since I was young. For a hundred years, I have been diligent and have never done a single thing to bring shame upon Flawless Palace. This boy, Lin Yun, is trying to frame me! I implore you, Your Excellency, to seek justice for me!" As the situation turned against him, Elder Wang dropped to his knees again, weeping and sniveling as he pleaded with the Vice Hall Master.
Looking at Elder Wang, whose time was almost up, the Vice Hall Master sighed softly. He was indeed an old member of Flawless Palace, but how could the things he had done possibly escape the notice of the Flawless Palace’s upper echelons?
In the servant disciple area, servant disciples would inexplicably disappear from time to time. If one really wanted to investigate such matters, it would be a piece of cake with the Punishment Hall’s methods.
However, because the servant disciples were completely insignificant to Flawless Palace, as long as Boss Tang and his group didn’t go too far, the Punishment Hall generally wouldn’t bother with these things.
The reason the Punishment Hall was alerted today was that Lin Yun had escalated things to an extreme. A Three-Stars Steward was dead. If the Punishment Hall still didn’t intervene, it would be unjustifiable.
Furthermore, others might not know Lin Yun’s identity, but as the Vice Hall Master of the Punishment Hall and a Main Seat Elder of Flawless Palace, he knew it very clearly.
’This is a genius with the aptitude of a Demon Fiend. I don’t know what madness possessed Luo Feng to assign him to the servant disciples, but anyone who actually treats Lin Yun like a real servant disciple is a fool.’
Furthermore, Puzhu himself had just visited the Punishment Hall. In truth, the outcome of this matter had been decided before the Vice Hall Master even appeared.
Of course, Luo Feng was the one who made the decision. ’Even I am baffled by Luo Feng’s verdict. Our Palace Master really just does whatever pops into his head.’
Placing the paper in his hand gently on the table before him, the Vice Hall Master said indifferently to Elder Wang, "Elder Wang, do you think the affairs of the servant disciple area can be hidden from the Punishment Hall?"
