Chapter 762 - Sect’s Friendship_1
Upon hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Mo Tianze was stunned for a moment, a bitter feeling rising in his heart.
He could tell that Jiang Chen evidently did not intend to let the matter rest, yet as Jiang Chen said, Li Wushuang was the Second Elder’s disciple, and his most valued senior disciple at that. If Jiang Minglong were to be injured because of this, he would have to seek justice for his disciple no matter what—but now...
Mo Tianze’s eyes flickered as he turned to look at Lin Jiuxiao, speaking out loud, "Sect Master, Li Wushuang used despicable tactics during the battle, provoking the ire of everyone present. Please, Sect Master, make your judgement!"
Lin Jiuxiao was taken aback and couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Chen.
Mo Tianze’s mention of "provoking the ire of everyone" likely referred to Jiang Chen’s own anger, or else he would not have added such a statement.
Considering this, Lin Jiuxiao started to feel uneasy. The punishment could not be too light—if it upset that young man, then they’d have celebrated prematurely.
"Sect Master!"
Just as Lin Jiuxiao felt troubled, Lu Zhengqiu spoke out assertively, "During a competition, using every means at one’s disposal is permissible. Although Wushuang’s act was indeed despicable, fortunately, nephew Ming Long was not injured. In contrast, Wushuang has been seriously wounded by nephew Ming Long. Let’s let bygones be bygones!"
"Let bygones be bygones?!"
Jiang Chen looked coldly at Lu Zhengqiu, "Do you mean to say my father is wrong for not being injured? Are you saying Li Wushuang is injured and wronged? Is Chixiao Sect really such a sect that distorts right and wrong?"
"You..."
Lu Zhengqiu’s complexion changed drastically, and he glared at Jiang Chen but couldn’t come up with a rebuttal. He had indeed intended to use Li Wushuang’s injury as a contrast to Jiang Minglong’s lack of injury, to garner sympathy and suppress the issue. However, he hadn’t expected Jiang Chen to point directly at the crux of the matter.
