NIRVANA SHACKLES
SELFDEFENSE

As things began to calm down again, Mahaguru Tianji got up from his seat and personally raised his disciple. That disciple was none other than Huo Yi who was testifying.

“Huo Yi, is everything you say true? Teacher won't forgive you if you tell absurd lies. Do you dare to swear on what you said just now? If until Master finds out you're lying, Master won't hesitate to cut ties and get you out of the sect!” cetus Mahaguru Tianji's. Finally, he spoke up and questioned Huo Yi directly.

Without stalling, Huo Yi immediately answered the question from Mahaguru Tianji, “Teacher, I really did not lie. I could have sworn if I saw thick black smoke coming out from the boy, as well as the sword that had an evil aura attacking me. If I lie, Master can punish me, even Master can take my life and spread my soul so as not to be reborn. I admit, I'm guilty of acting without orders. However if he is really a demon that the demon sect sent to spy on our sect, I hope that no one will be disinclined to give him forgiveness!” cetus Huo Yi with his floor.

“Good, Master holds your word,” says Mahaguru Tianji. “Xiandu, according to what my disciple said, my disciple saw with his own eyes that the boy was emitting black smoke from within his body. Based on his testimony, the black smoke coming out from one's body was definitely not a good aura. Next, we must take action on this.” Mahaguru Tianji expressed his opinion towards Run Yu.

“Good, then ...” Not yet had Run Yi finished his words, Wuxian immediately cut them off. In the end, Wuxian ventured to speak up when he realized that his fate was on the edge.

“Chairman of the sect, I am not a spy of the demon sect. If he can swear, I can also swear on myself. I am definitely not a spy of the demon sect. I swear on my life and death. Dear teachers, do you remember the 2 children who came to the sect 5 years ago? One of the others received a warm reception because they were considered talented, even the teacher received it well. Then again, no one teacher wanted to accept it because he was considered to have no talent, even training cultivation would threaten his own life. However, the boy insisted on staying in the sect and training cultivation personally, as no one was willing to raise him as a disciple. Not even the Magicians could forbid him from leaving because he had been destined to become a disciple of the Qing Long sect. Do you guys remember? That child was me, the only student who had never received a teaching from a single teacher. I am just an outcast student who is not talented, can not even accept cultivation despite forcing and practicing constantly.5 years have passed, until now I have not made any progress. I'm just a useless person. How could a demon sect send a cripple like me to spy on a sect? You guys look too high at my grades,” said Wuxian at length. After everything that happened, Wuxian did not care about anything else, other than his own life which was also on the edge of the horn.

Even after everything he experienced, in a time like this, he had to bear all the evidence that led to him. His life is not long. In his heart, he wanted justice that never once sided with him. He does not expect others to sympathize with him, for his purpose is only to obtain justice, not mercy. But unfortunately, again in the eyes of others, what he did was still wrong.

Once wrong in the eyes of others, the truth no longer matters. Wuxian's words offended the Mahagurus because Wuxian said all this in the presence of the warriors present in the room. Wuxian words are considered insulting to the Mahaguru and the sovereignty that has been established by the sect. Regarding the exiled disciples, it was indeed the Qing Long sect to keep a secret about this towards the Jianghu world warriors and the cultivators of the big sects. With Wuxian saying so, then the reputation of the Qing Long sect would be tarnished in the eyes of other warriors as it was considered a form of discrimination. That is what makes them whisper to each other gossiping about the statement expressed by Wuxian.

“What did he say wrong? I think everything he said made sense. He just wants to defend himself. About the sect discriminating his disciple, have you all never heard of him? Ah, I know, it seems, all this time the sect kept it a secret from outsiders because it was deliberately so that the outcast disciples could work as sect helpers. Am I right?” timpal Liu Wei with courage. He could not stand it anymore, until finally he could reveal everything he had been silent all this time to the world.

“You!”

“Why? Me why? What did I say wrong? Not only was he an outcast disciple, I was also, and all the other outcast disciples could testify to our words. The more you dodge it, the more you justify the words we say,” Liu Wei chirped.

“Xiandu, is everything your students say true? If all that is true, it means that you have committed immoral acts because you discriminate your own students.” Ran Qing, the Xuanyuan sect head spoke up as he wanted to confirm the truth that had been revealed.

No one dared to speak up to answer Ran Qing's question. Until finally, Run Yu himself had to answer his question, “This is all just a misunderstanding. It seems, you guys have misunderstood Actually, our sect has never discriminated against disciples. Merely, there were some disciples who were born with weak merdians. If they forced to train cultivation to obtain the god bones, then their lives would be threatened. We never discriminate them, we just group their training in different ways. For such children, doing heavy work is one great way to strengthen bones and repair their weak pigeons. If they were to force to practice like the other disciples, it was his fear ..the cultivation that they would damage their bodies, and the worst possibility would be to claim lives. That is why we distinguish their training, not caste distinctions. For us, all sect disciples are the same, only their ways of training are different. I hope, my explanation can answer the doubts of all of you,” explained Run Yu at length.

“Really? I don't see it that way. You just don't want that untalented kid to be a burden. All of that was just an excuse because each sect only accepted disciples who passed the examination. However it was different from the Qing Long sect. Without exams, you accept the disciples just because they have been feared. If you do not intend to accommodate an untalented student, why should you accept it?”
