28: Holy shit! Shut up!
Jiang Ye smiled faintly, his tone carrying a hint of disdain. "Go ask the Sect Master! If I beat you down right here, you'll lose Face."
Shen Sheng burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Hahaha! What a big mouth—"
However, before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Ye had already moved.
Bang! With a dull thud, Jiang Ye's fist smashed directly into Shen Sheng's chest, sending him flying back over a hundred meters before he crashed heavily onto the ground.
"Ah..." Shen Sheng screamed in pain. Clutching his chest, he looked at Jiang Ye in shock. "You... who exactly are you?"
Jiang Ye stood in place and brushed his hands off, his tone calm. "The newly promoted Inner Sect Disciple, Jiang Ye!"
"Impossible! Why exactly did you come to my Tianyang Sect?" Shen Sheng struggled to stand up, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"The Heavenly Sun Art!" Jiang Ye shrugged, his tone relaxed. "Alright, I'm done wasting words with you. We're going to eat. If you have a problem, go ask the Sect Master. If you cause more trouble, I'll beat you down in front of the entire Sect."
Shen Sheng's Face turned ashen. Just as he was about to lose his temper, Elder Chen walked over, holding up a Sect Master's Token. He said coldly, "Grand Elder, these children are currently special existences within our Tianyang Sect. The Sect Master's Token is here; no one shall disobey, or they will be dealt with severely!"
Shen Sheng stared at Elder Chen, a flicker of doubt in his eyes. "Chen Pan, where did you get that Sect Master's Token?"
Elder Chen sneered and fired back bluntly, "Shen Sheng! My son's strength has surpassed your grandson's, so now you're finding trouble with me every day, aren't you? Who in the entire Tianyang Sect doesn't know you want your grandson to inherit the Sect Master position in the future? Do you think the Sect Master doesn't know?"
Shen Sheng's expression changed, and he barked, "Chen Pan! For stealing the Sect Master's Token, I will now enforce the Sect rules and cripple you!"
"Old man! Don't you dare touch my father!" Just then, a young man rushed over at high speed. It was Elder Chen's son, Chen Feng.
Seeing this, Shen Sheng suddenly laughed loudly. "Hahaha! Perfect timing. Father and son conspiring to steal the Sect Master's Token. Today, I shall enforce the Sect rules. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
Chen Feng snorted, completely unafraid. "Hmph! I am the number one Elite Disciple of the Tianyang Sect. If you touch me, do you think you can still stay in the Tianyang Sect?"
"I will report the situation to the Sect Master myself. Die!" A ruthless glint flashed in Shen Sheng's eyes as he struck out directly toward Chen Feng.
However, just as Shen Sheng's attack was about to hit Chen Feng, a giant palm print descended from the sky, slamming directly toward Shen Sheng.
Bang! "Ah..." With a loud explosion, Shen Sheng was instantly sent flying, crashing heavily onto the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Shen Sheng struggled to crawl up, looking at the newcomer in terror. "Sect Master! You..."
Chu Tianyang walked over slowly, his gaze icy. "Ignoring the Sect Master's Token, violating Sect rules, and attempting to kill an Elite Disciple. From today onwards, you are stripped of your position as Elder and imprisoned for three years."
Shen Sheng's Face turned pale as he hurriedly tried to defend himself. "Sect Master! I was only concerned for the Sect, fearing someone was abusing the Sect Master's Token."
Chu Tianyang sneered, his tone mocking. "Shen Sheng, if it weren't for the sake of the Old Sect Master, I would have crippled you long ago! You know very well how many resources the Sect has consumed for you to reach your current Realm. If the resources wasted on you had been given to talented Disciples, my Tianyang Sect wouldn't have developed so slowly."
Seeing that his schemes were exposed, Shen Sheng dropped all pretenses and gritted his teeth. "Since we've reached this point, I'm not afraid to speak plainly! Chu Tianyang, although you are the Sect Master, you cannot kill me. Also, you can only remain Sect Master for ten more years. The Old Sect Master left an order that my grandson, Shen Ming, will take your place in ten years. Hahaha!"
"Then wouldn't it be over if we just killed his grandson within ten years!" Shi Bao suddenly interjected.
"Holy crap! Shut up!" Shi Feng and Jiang Ye were startled by his words and quickly covered his mouth.
Upon hearing this, Chu Tianyang burst into laughter. "Hahaha! Exactly. Such a simple matter, even a ten-year-old child understands. Letting you be the Grand Elder would make people think how stupid my Tianyang Sect is. Law Enforcement Elder! Take action!"
"Yes!" The Law Enforcement Elder stepped forward and immediately took Shen Sheng away.
Chu Tianyang looked at Elder Chen, his tone softening. "Alright, Elder Chen, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Yes, Sect Master," Elder Chen nodded respectfully.
After Chu Tianyang left, Elder Chen said to Chen Feng, "These are the new Disciples I just recruited. Take them around to familiarize them with the environment of the Tianyang Sect."
Chen Feng nodded and said with a smile to Jiang Ye and the others, "Let's go, I'll take you for a tour."
Jiang Ye and the others shared a smile and followed Chen Feng out of the courtyard. The future of the Tianyang Sect seemed to be quietly undergoing a change.
