Book Title: Reborn as Kong Xuan. Temporary Chapter Title: Chapter 30: Yuan Hong is Punished.
Yuan Hong, Liuer, and Ma Hou returned to the military camp and told Yunxiao about the matter of injuring a Second Generation Disciple of the Chan Sect.
Upon hearing the three monkeys' words, Yunxiao immediately frowned. After thinking for a while, she said, "This matter can be big or small. If the Chan Sect does not pursue it, this matter will pass. But if that Qingxu Daoren has some backing in the Chan Sect, this matter will be very troublesome."
Chan Sect military camp.
"Brother, your younger brother has been bullied. You must seek justice for me!" Qingxu Daoren said to Qingxu Daode Zhenjun who was in front of him.
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun was Qingxu Daoren's own older brother. In the past, the two had relied on each other for survival, so he was quite doting toward Qingxu Daoren and would accommodate this younger brother in everything. Once he heard his younger brother had been bullied, he immediately asked for the reason.
Qingxu recounted the matter with added embellishments.
Upon hearing that it was Kong Xuan's eldest disciple, Qingxu Daode Zhenjun clearly frowned and said, "Let's just let this matter go. It would be fine if it were someone else, but Kong Xuan is not a person to be trifled with."
Hearing that the matter was just going to be dropped, Qingxu hurriedly said, "It is fine that I was bullied, but we cannot lose the face of our Chan Sect."
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun thought for a while and said, "Fine, I will go find the Eldest Senior Brother to discuss it."
Qingxu Daoren immediately said that was good.
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun found Guangchengzi and told him about the matter.
After listening, Guangchengzi thought for a while and said, "Originally, if it were someone else's disciple from the Jie Sect, this matter would have to be pursued to the end. But it is difficult to handle since this is a disciple of Kong Xuan, who has always had a tough attitude. However, if this matter is not pursued, my Chan Sect's Second Generation Disciple being beaten and injured by a Third Generation Disciple of the Jie Sect will cause great damage to our reputation."
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun hurriedly asked what should be done.
Guangchengzi thought for a while and said, "Go bring Qingxu Daoren here, and we will take him to the Jie Sect. Let Yuan Hong apologize to him, and this matter will pass."
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun hurriedly fetched Qingxu Daoren and told him about the matter.
Although Qingxu Daoren was not very satisfied with this result, since the superiors had already decided, there was no use in him saying anything, so he agreed.
Thus, the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect took Qingxu Daoren and flew toward the Jie Sect.
"Senior Brother Duobao, your Jie Sect's Third Generation Disciple Yuan Hong disregarded the treaty of alliance between the two sects, acted against a Chan Sect disciple without authorization, and injured my Chan Sect's Second Generation Disciple. Tell me, how shall we handle this matter?" Guangchengzi said to Duobao Daoren.
Duobao Daoren had never liked Kong Xuan's lineage to begin with. Upon hearing that it was Yuan Hong who caused the trouble, he immediately said bluntly, "Guangchengzi, since it was Yuan Hong who disregarded the two sects' treaty and acted without authorization, your Chan Sect shall decide how to handle this."
Guangchengzi did not expect Duobao to be so easy to talk to, so he said, "How about this: you have Yuan Hong apologize to Junior Brother Qingxu, and this matter will pass. We cannot ruin the friendship of the alliance between the two sects over such a small matter."
Duobao did not expect Guangchengzi's request to be so simple, and he felt a little displeased inside. He said, "Someone, call Yuan Hong here for me."
Before long, the three monkeys, Yuan Hong, were called into the main hall. Duobao said, "Yuan Hong, you violated the treaty between the two sects without authorization and acted against a martial uncle. You should be severely punished, but the Chan Sect is magnanimous. As long as you apologize, this matter will pass."
Hearing Duobao's words, Yuan Hong said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I did nothing wrong in this matter, and I firmly refuse to apologize."
Upon hearing that Yuan Hong was so unappreciative, Duobao laughed inwardly, but said sternly, "Audacious Yuan Hong! You refuse to admit your mistake and are stubborn beyond compare. I will give you one last chance; otherwise, I will cripple your cultivation."
Hearing Duobao's words, Yuan Hong showed not the slightest fear: "Yuan Hong has a clear conscience in his actions, and I firmly refuse to apologize."
"Good for you, Yuan Hong! Since it is like this, someone, take Yuan Hong away and cripple his cultivation in public tomorrow as a warning to others," Duobao said angrily.
"Let's see who dares!" Liuer and Ma Hou immediately took out their staves, prepared to intervene.
"You two have great audacity, openly disobeying orders! Someone, take them down together!" As soon as he finished speaking, many Second Generation Disciples entered. Although the three, Yuan Hong, had all reached the Fifth Turn, they were taken down within a few rounds when facing dozens of Second Generation Disciples.
"Eldest Senior Brother, this is not good, is it? If Senior Brother Kong Xuan finds out..." Yunxiao said hurriedly.
"Hmph, you already said I am the Eldest Senior Brother, so these matters are for me to decide. Take the three of them away," Duobao said.
Then he said to Guangchengzi and the others, "Junior brothers of the Chan Sect, rest in the military camp for the night. Tomorrow, I will punish this stubborn Yuan Hong." After speaking, he immediately sent people to arrange rooms for the Twelve Golden Immortals.
Guangchengzi had not expected things to turn out like this. He sighed helplessly and took the other Chan Sect Golden Immortals to the rooms arranged by Duobao.
Seeing that things were not looking good, Yunxiao immediately flew overnight to Dongying Island to find Kong Xuan, hoping Kong Xuan would come to stop it.
