Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 739 - 741 Heavenly Mansion Chief
Chapter 739: Chapter 741 Heavenly Mansion Chief
A warm breeze accompanied the breath.
It caressed everyone, giving them a sense of warmth unwittingly.
Before long, a pale figure slowly approached.
He appeared very aged, with his scrawny collarbones faintly visible beneath his neck.
His white hair was pinned atop his head with a bone hairpin.
Despite his aged face and body, the elder’s spirit was exceptionally strong.
Even young people would have to hang their heads in shame before this white-haired elder.
Xia Liu could feel the vast energy emanating from the elder through his divine sense.
Such a demeanor could probably only belong to a leader on the Righteous Path.
Strength was no longer his main attribute.
This upright and forceful energy alone proved his status in the Warrior Realm.
Following the elder, a small group of people dressed solemnly, their faces stern.
Even ordinary people could feel the formidable aura they emitted.
“They are Elders from the Hall of Law Enforcement!”
“To be escorted by the Hall of Law Enforcement, he must be the Heavenly Mansion Chief!”
“The Heavenly Mansion Chief!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was inwardly shocked.
For they had not seen the Chief since entering the Heavenly Mansion.
Unless one was with the Hall of Law Enforcement, few had seen the Chief.
They neither had the qualifications nor the opportunity.
Seeing the Heavenly Mansion Chief arrive, Sun Jian froze completely.
Scenes of the past help he had received from the Heavenly Mansion Chief flashed through his mind.

Encountering the Heavenly Mansion Chief after making a mistake, Sun Jian lowered his head and remained silent.
His face was already pale as death.
If the Psychic Bureau had taken over the Heavenly Mansion, it would have been different.
Then he would surely have recalled their past bond and spared the Heavenly Mansion Chief.
But now, defeated and downtrodden, he had no face to meet his former benefactor.
“Sun Jian! Do you admit your guilt?”
The Heavenly Mansion Chief had not yet arrived, but several elders from the Hall of Law Enforcement had already stepped forward past the elder and approached Sun Jian with an overwhelming presence.
Facing the supreme pressure of three Heavenly Rank Peak Warriors, Sun Jian’s knees instantly touched the ground.
What could he say now?
Regrets?
Perhaps a little, but as things had progressed, he clearly had the right to refuse but had not chosen the right path until the very last moment.
“I have a few words I want to say to him,” said the Heavenly Mansion Chief, his eyes sharp, conveying tenderness, sorrow, and pity as he looked at Sun Jian.
Everyone around stepped aside at that moment, letting the elder come forward to reprimand.
“My child, how have I treated you over these years?”
“Like a father and teacher,”
Sun Jian slowly raised his head, wanting to face his benefactor one last time.
“Then why have you still disappointed me so?”
“Because I wanted to enter the Path! I wanted to be revered by millions like you!”
Sun Jian’s eyes trembled, aspiring to the grand silhouette of the elder.
In the Warrior Realm, only by becoming a Path-Entering Expert could one be supported by millions of warriors, respected, and become a faith.
“You are wrong, greatly wrong,” the elder looked deeply at Sun Jian for a while, and shook his head slightly, all hopes shattering at that moment.
“I chose the wrong method, I know, but if I remained mediocre, the distance between me and entering the Path would only grow further; pursuing higher quality cultivation resources on my own is my pride.”
“The path of cultivation requires a gradual and methodical approach, only steady improvement can propel one further; chances and fortunes cannot be overlooked. Once you step into the Evil Way, even if you reach the peak of the Martial Dao, what then?”
The elder’s words silenced Sun Jian, making him wonder if the admiration of countless strong individuals towards his step into the Evil Way was genuine?
He didn’t know, and he didn’t want to know at all anymore.
Facing a dazed Sun Jian, the elder slightly raised his head, and with a light wave of his hand,
two Heaven-Rank Peak Warriors from the Hall of Law Enforcement took Sun Jian away from the scene.
As for where Sun Jian would go and what kind of lesson he would receive, no one would know except for the Heavenly Mansion Chief.
“Chief, show mercy! We were just confused temporarily!”
“Please, show mercy, Chief!”
“Please, show mercy, Chief!”
The five Heaven-Rank Warriors kneeling on the ground began to kowtow.
One misstep leads to another, and the cost of amending them could be nothing less than their lives, after dignity.
To continue breathing fresh air, they discarded all their pride.
They would even accept being prisoners, as long as they remained alive.
They had all understood.
They still had a chance to turn things around.
Even if they were confined in a dark prison, as long as they kept cultivating,
the day their cultivation advanced to Path-Entering would be the day they reclaimed everything.
“Regardless, you all have contributed to the Heavenly Mansion and are part of it.”
Looking at the five Heaven-Rank Warriors, the Heavenly Mansion Chief said with a compassionate look, “Can you accept facing the wall for ten years?”
Upon hearing the punishment decided by the Heavenly Mansion Chief, the five widened their eyes, not in fear, but in joy.
If it was just facing the wall for ten years, then it was absolutely the lightest of light punishments!
The sins they committed were enough to be crushed with a slap.
And now, the Chief was merely sending them to face the wall for ten years! What a relief!
“We are willing to accept the punishment!”
“Willing to accept!”
…
After the five nodded excitedly, an elder from the Hall of Law Enforcement immediately took them away.
After dealing with the criminals, the atmosphere at the site became more relaxed.
Looking at the corpses in the pool of blood, although the elder’s expression was solemn, seeing the youthful figure added a smile of benevolence to his face.
“Old man Chen Tian’en, today I truly appreciate the young man’s help in handling the affairs of the Heavenly Mansion.”
“Chief Chen is being too kind. I was merely protecting myself. Please, just call me Xia Liu.”
Xia Liu responded politely.
“I know what happened. Daoist Fellow Xia, for someone of your young age to have such prowess, this old man admires you, and I am also ashamed for what the Heavenly Mansion has done.”
Chen Tian’en’s words caused the surrounding members of the Heavenly Mansion to tremble with shock.
Xia Liu was also embarrassed to the extreme, as the old man not only referred to him as a Daoist Fellow but also expressed admiration…
With the status of a Heavenly Mansion Chief, he didn’t need to feel ashamed about anything, since he wasn’t the one who committed the acts.
“Chief, this…”
An elder from the Hall of Law Enforcement felt uneasy, realizing that if he didn’t remind the Chief, the position of the Heavenly Mansion might appear diminished in Xia Liu’s eyes.
“I know what you’re about to say. Perhaps you don’t realize that this young man before you, Xia Liu, aged twenty-six, has a cultivation that matches a Path-Entering Mid-Stage. Indeed, he is the dragon among men.”
“What! Path-Entering Mid-Stage at twenty-six!”
“How is that possible! So young and yet possessing the cultivation of Path-Entering Mid-Stage!”
“Path-Entering Mid-Stage, doesn’t that mean his cultivation is even higher than the Chief!”
“Such a terrifying young man!”
“My heavens, I had been guessing since earlier that he was a Path-Entering Martial Artist. It turns out I was right!”
“He is definitely the youngest Path-Entering Expert in history!”
“Since the Chief himself said so, his cultivation must be genuine, Path-Entering Mid-Stage…”
