Chapter 923 Tit for Tat 2
Tie Yuanlong sneered, 'The Demon Suppression Monument concerns the safety of the arcane arts. Li Po disregards righteousness and is a selfish person!'
'You're wrong again!' Old Liu said, 'The Demon Suppression Monument hasn't returned to the Confucian School for two hundred years. Have the demons in the Confucian School's stele forest been released?'
'Or are you saying that the Confucian School's great experts can no longer suppress the demons, and the Confucian School is in such a precarious state that it has come to ask for help?'
'Neither situation has occurred! You're using the word "possibility" as an excuse to talk about righteousness? When my Hall Master needs the Demon Suppression Monument to save the Second Hall Master, you demand the Demon Suppression Monument. Is my Hall Master violating righteousness and justice by refusing to trade?'
Speaking of this, Old Liu sighed, 'Now, both Hall Masters are gone. If any fellow cultivator wants to suppress the Snow Mountain Demon God, my Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) is willing to offer the Demon Suppression Monument without taking a single penny.'
Old Liu took a bite out of the Reincarnation Division at the most critical point and immediately gained the upper hand.
What the Reincarnation Division was talking about was 'righteousness', but righteousness is not law and has no mandatory binding force.
Moreover, Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) was not holding onto the Demon Suppression Monument when demons were being born and lives were being lost. The so-called righteousness of the Reincarnation Division was just a hypothesis, without any practical significance.
Tie Yuanlong knew that the result of continuing to argue would only be making a fool of himself, so he immediately moved past this topic: 'Then how do you explain the matter of Li Po wantonly killing disciples of the Reincarnation Division?'
Old Liu waved his hand and said, 'More evidence.'
Lin Zhao released the recording again. This time, the recording showed the Reincarnation Division making things difficult for Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) everywhere, not allowing Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) to pass, and not allowing them to stay in hotels. There was also a close-up of a Reincarnation Division disciple threatening Old Liu.
After the recording was played, it was the process of me fighting with the Reincarnation Division disciples before I entered Qingyan Village.
The recording ended when the Reincarnation Division disciples appeared, threatened me, and until I killed all the people who came to chase me.
Old Liu asked with a smile, 'May I ask, Holy Maiden, was my Hall Master justified in retaliating?'
Tie Yuanlong said angrily, 'Even if the Reincarnation Division disciples acted improperly, you shouldn't have killed them. We in the Reincarnation Division have a Hall of Law Enforcement. Why didn't you come to complain and instead killed people?'
'Heh...' Old Liu shook his fan with a sneer, not bothering to answer his question at all.
The grandmasters present also showed disdain for Tie Yuanlong. Although others didn't show it as obviously as the two grandmasters, no one echoed him.
Martial world people are not unreasonable, but they don't speak of legal principles, but of people's hearts.
If martial world people all obeyed the law, there would be no saying of 'disturbing the peace with martial arts', and there would be no martial world killings.
When martial world people talk about reason, the first thing they think about is how to protect their own interests, how not to be bullied, and how to leave a way out for themselves.
Therefore, when they judge reason, they first think about how they should respond if similar things happen to them, not who is more reasonable.
To give a simplest example: Why could the Northern Warlords safely spend their later years, and the new warlords never bother them again, as long as a certain warlord telegraphed his resignation during the chaotic warlord wars and the rotation of presidents?
The reason is nothing more than two: The first reason is that the warlords were fighting for territory. A warlord who lost his territory couldn't make any waves, so there was no need to kill them all.
The second and most important reason is that there was a consensus among the warlords, that is, 'If you don't give people a way to survive, others won't give you a way to survive.' If it really comes to the time when you resign, this default consensus can also guarantee the safety of your family.
This is the rule in the warlord's martial world.
Similarly, all the martial world people present, especially the two grandmasters, are also thinking about a question: When the Reincarnation Division wants to take away their inherited treasures in the name of righteousness, or force them to slay demons and eliminate evil, what should they do?
For a time, no one spoke, as if they were all waiting for Zhu Zining's attitude.
Zhu Zining was silent for a moment before saying, 'This matter was indeed unreasonable of the Reincarnation Division first. On behalf of the Reincarnation Division, I sincerely apologize to everyone.'
After Zhu Zining bowed deeply, she said, 'Elder Tie, order the Hall of Law Enforcement to severely punish the disciples involved.'
Tie Yuanlong bowed and said, 'The disciples who made things difficult for Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) have all died in the battle with Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall). There is no one to punish.'
Zhu Zining said again in a deep voice, 'Order the halls of the Reincarnation Division to take this as a warning and never allow similar things to happen again. Otherwise, they will be severely punished.'
Tie Yuanlong said sadly, 'Chief Inspector, our Reincarnation Division has lost two halls of disciples because of Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall)! Even if Cai Wenyun and the others were at fault first, Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) was too ruthless, right?'
'Two halls of disciples, hundreds of lives! Those disciples were not only killed by Li Po, but even their souls were not spared!'
'Chief Inspector, even if our Reincarnation Division disciples were at fault, they shouldn't have been annihilated! Could it be that Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) can do whatever they want just because they have a little reason?'"
