Chapter 445: Torture

Before the words fell, the venue suddenly fell silent.

Who is Wei Yuxin?

She is the legitimate daughter of Wei Yongyuan, the patriarch of the Wei clan, and a daughter of a wealthy family who was once famous in the cultivation world.

Since her birth, she has been surrounded by countless halos. Words such as natural beauty, orchid-like temperament, and dignified appearance are not enough to describe her.

However, such a fairy-like figure with noble birth, admired by people, and sought after by disciples of major families was abducted by her teacher while traveling abroad, and finally gave birth to a child for him.

This news was like a thunderbolt for the Wei clan.

At that time, Wei Yongyuan had already made an engagement with the Xie clan in Shuzhong, and was going to betroth Wei Yuxin to the legitimate son of the eldest house of the Xie clan as his wife, and the wedding would be held in half a year.

However, after the news that Wei Yuxin had eloped with someone came out, the cultivation world was in an uproar, and the major families were shocked one after another, and they all asked about the reason for this matter.

In order to reduce the impact, Wei Yongyuan was forced to return the betrothal gifts of the Xie family and proposed to cancel the engagement. Unfortunately, Xie refused to agree and strongly demanded that the Wei family hand over Wei Yuxin.

Marriage is related to the family's face. Wei Yuxin's elopement brought shame to both families. The reason why Xie wanted her was that the two parties had exchanged marriage certificates. Wei Yuxin was nominally a member of the Xie family, and the Wei family should release her according to traditional rules.

But Wei Yongyuan was not a fool. He knew that the Xie family took Wei Yuxin back to dispose of her in the name of "Seven Reasons for Divorce" to appease the anger of the clan members and wash away the shame they suffered.

Seven Reasons for Divorce are the seven rules for divorce handed down from ancient times. One of them is to corrupt morality and destroy ethics. To put it bluntly, it is to violate the "lust" precepts. This is definitely the end of drowning in a pig cage in various families.

If Wei Yuxin was really taken back to the Xie family, her fate can be imagined.

Wei Yongyuan refused to agree, and the Wei family members were unwilling to compromise. No matter how serious the crime Wei Yuxin committed, in the minds of the Wei family, she was not guilty of death, so they strongly opposed the Xie family's request.

Coincidentally, Wei Yuxin was diagnosed with pregnancy at this time. Although Wei Yongyuan was heartbroken, he could not bear to see his daughter die, so he rejected the Xie family in harsh words.

The Xie family was furious after being slapped in the face one after another.

The son's fiancée was abducted and shamelessly gave birth to a child. The Wei family refused to let her go. Xie Weixian, the head of the Xie family, finally couldn't help his anger and took a large number of masters from the family to Ruoye Creek to seek justice.

Unexpectedly, because both sides were unwilling to give in, a tragic bloody incident eventually occurred.

At that time, Xie Weixian had controlled the Xie family for decades, and his strength was much stronger than the divided Wei family. In addition, the clan members worked together. Although they were fighting away from home, they also caused heavy losses to the Wei family.

Fortunately, the Wei family knew that they could not lose this battle, otherwise the family would be expelled from the cultivation world, so they held the determination to die together and stubbornly resisted the attack of the Xie family.

Xie Weixian failed to conquer the city for a long time, and he also understood the determination of the Wei family to resist.

After realizing that continuing would weaken his own strength and affect the status of the Xie family in the aristocratic family, Xie Weixian learned from his pain and finally collected the bodies of the family members and left with hatred.

Although the battle ended with the Wei family successfully repelling the enemy, the casualties of the family members were too heavy, almost reaching the point where every family was in mourning and every household was in mourning. While the Wei family members hated the Xie family, they also transferred some of their hatred to Wei Yuxin.

Therefore, in the next ten years, the family members had a very bad attitude towards Wei Yuxin and her daughter.

If they were not members of the clan, their situation in the Wei family would probably be very difficult.

It was also because of this incident that Wei Yongyuan's prestige plummeted, and the clan became the opposite of the clan members. If Wei Yongyuan had not established a relationship with the hidden sect and could protect the safety of the Wei family, he might have been overthrown long ago.

At this time, hearing the clan elders say that they would bring torture instruments to punish Wei Yuxin and her daughter, all the clan members of the Wei family fell silent, staring at the people in the stands, observing the reactions of all parties.

The venue was silent, and the atmosphere in the stands was solemn.

Thump, thump.

At this time, four clan members carrying benches and holding long sticks went up to the stands and placed the torture instruments in the center of the stands.

This kind of public execution is rare, especially when the punishment targets Wei Yuxin and her daughter. The eyes of the Wei clan members turned to Chu Yang to see how he would react this time.

Chu Yang did not say a word, and looked at the clan elders with mocking eyes.

After the rosacea old man was furious, he realized that he was a little impulsive. Wei Yuxin was Wei Yongyuan's favorite. He didn't deal with her even in the most difficult times, let alone punish his beloved granddaughter. If he touched them, it might be detrimental to today's negotiations.

Just when he was hesitant, he heard Wei Qinzhi slowly say: "What are you waiting for? Punish them!"

Wei Qinzhi is the head of the elders. His prestige in the clan is now slightly higher than Wei Yongyuan. At this time, he has spoken in support. The rosacea old man was delighted and shouted at Wei Yuxin and her daughter: "Are you willing to be punished, or are you waiting to be forced to do it?"

Wei Yuxin didn't expect things to develop to this point. The pain of being humiliated in public made her tremble all over and her face became ugly. Wei Zixi next to her also subconsciously hid behind Chu Yang, baring her silver teeth and staring at the rosacea old man angrily.

Seeing that the mother and daughter were unmoved, the man with the red nose turned to look at the four people who were carrying out the execution and said angrily: "Catch them!"

These four people were all good fighters in the tribe and loyal supporters of the elders. After hearing the elders' orders, the four of them shouted "yes" in unison and quickly walked towards Wei Yuxin and her daughter.

"Whoever dares to take a step forward, I will make him die without a burial place!"

At this time, Chu Yang stopped his mother and sister with a cold look.

The four people on the opposite side were as if they were facing a great enemy, and they also took up their positions to confront Chu Yang.

Seeing this, the old man with rosacea said coldly: "You are so arrogant. If you dare to take action today, I will never let you be rampant!"

In addition to having the art of alchemy, the elders of the Wei family also have superb cultivation. Although the skills they learned were not the "Zhouyi Cantongqi" handed down by the Wei family, they were also extremely powerful skills. After wasting decades of time, these five elders have successively entered the peak period of foundation building, which is considered the top combat power of the Wei family.

Although Chu Yang had fought in the meeting hall, Wang Qiqiao was not good at martial arts and failed to force him to use all his strength. Therefore, several elders thought that he was at most at the late stage of foundation building and did not take his threat seriously at all.

Therefore, the old man with rosacea dared to speak to Chu Yang in a contemptuous tone.

"Really?"

Chu Yang's eyes were slightly mocking. He stretched out his palm, turned his wrist and pressed it down suddenly. A low pressure suddenly appeared on the stands.

The four people on the opposite side thought that Chu Yang was going to take action, and they all subconsciously stepped back a few steps.

However, after Chu Yang made this move, he put down his palm and looked at the people on the opposite side with a smile.

Not to mention the four people on the opposite side, even Wei Qinzhi and the others didn't know what Chu Yang meant. The tribesmen in the stands started to discuss.

"What the hell is this guy doing?"

"Who doesn't know this move? I'm afraid he's just being mysterious, right?"

"I guess he wants to delay time and wait for the tribe leader to save his life!"

The discussion in the venue became louder and louder. As the sound waves spread, a "hissing" sound suddenly came from the stands.
