“What! Say that again!?”

Within the Great Wall Library, the lady in the white shirt suddenly sprung up from her original cross-legged position. Her eyes were opened wide, two rays of snow-white light beams were shooting out from her eyes, then instantly fading away.

All the effort she spent practicing the Gaze Strike Secret Method had been crushed.

However, the lady did not seem to have even an ounce of regret, she was just solemnly staring at the white-shirted disciple here to make his report.

“Your Tenth Royal Highness, Her Fifth Royal Highness Rainy has committed treason against the sect, she has been taken in for interrogation. The Elders are asking you to head over to the meeting hall and pass judgment on her actions,” the white-shirted disciple answered coldly, not showing even a hint of expression.

“Sister Rainy…?!! Treason? Impossible!” The lady in the white shirt had a cold expression, her chest rapidly thumping, refusing to believe what he had said.

“It is the Elders’ order,” the disciple replied coldly.

“Two years ago, sister Rainy left to attend to some private matters and was never heard from since. Now you’re suddenly telling me that she has committed treason against the sect?!” The lady chuckled coldly. “You’re lying!!”

He suddenly reached out her hand, her arm instantaneously elongated, grabbing the disciples head with her claw-like hand.

Boom!!

The white-shirted disciple’s head was instantly crushed, turning into countless metal scraps and pieces.

“I hate liars the most!! Anyone who lies to me shall die!!”

In the spur of the moment, the lady in the white shirt struck her palm down.

With a small boom, the disciple’s entire body immediately exploded into countless parts flying all over the place and slowly melting away.

Surprisingly, all of these pieces seemed to be made of sculpted ice.

“Your Royal Highness Aloran, this is the order by the Elders,” the remaining half of his head started saying slowly.

Swiftly standing up, the lady crushed the remains of the head with a stomp, her facial expressions remained cold.

“I refuse to believe that sister Rainy will do this sort of thing!”

She strode out of the room. Her figure started shining, as she immediately disappeared.

Scarlet Snow Main Peak

Courtroom Basilica

Numerous white humanoid sculptures that were hundreds of meters tall surrounded the basilica. The floor was made of ice, engraved with thick and ancient patterns.

In between the white sculptures came a breeze of icy cold wind that was dozens of degrees below the freezing point, causing a low whistling sound similar to that of a ghost’s hisses.

This was the Courtroom, the place where all the crime within the Scarlet Snow Sect was trialed against.

A soft white light permeated through the pure white basilica, almost as if it was natural moonlight.

At this moment, the originally quiet Courtroom had already been filled up with groups of people.

Sitting at the very top were the three Elder, their hair was completely white and their faces were covered with wrinkles. They all had different body shapes.

The Great Elder was extremely portly, his five-meter wide body looked almost as if a meat mountain.

The Second Elder was seemingly always asleep. No one was sure of whether he was truly asleep or not since his eyes were always closed.

The Third Elder was a dwarf. He looked the size of a mere child, but his face revealed his unwavering killing intent. The long white robe he was wearing was enough to completely wrap his entire body up.

Right below the Elders stood a row of Three-Hearted Disciples all looking downwards. Almost all of the Three-Hearted disciples were present today. With the exception of those in the midst of their training or missions, almost everyone was here.

Standing at the very front of all of them was Carthage, the strongest Scarlet Snow genius from the legends.

Just from his looks alone, he seemed to be just an average young man. There was nothing special about him, he did not have any sort of tyrannical air to him, nor did he have any strong elite aura. He just seemed like a normal man in his twenties, young, mature, and calm, as if he did not have a care in the world. His looks were not exceptionally charming as well. In a white shirt, if he did not stand at the front of all the Three-Hearts, there probably would not even be a person who could recognize him.

Behind him was a person who was completely wrapped in a white robe. You could barely even see her face, but from the figure, it seemed to be a girl.

The third spot was empty, Eva was still out on a mission and was not back yet as she was still in another Star Region.

The fourth spot was also empty while the fifth spot supposed to be Rainy.

However, at this moment, Rainy was kneeling at the bottom of this basicula, her hair was a mess and she was covered in blood stains, facing the three Elders.

Her pale face did not reveal even a shred of emotion, only a sense of calmness. A big scarlet red bird was wrapped around her neck, almost as if a noose, restricting all her willpower and combat abilities.

“Rainy oh Rainy… You were always so smart and mature, why in the world would you do such a thing!?” The second-ranked Three-Heart in the white robe cried in agony, her voice melodious and crisp.

“Sister… I broke the sect’s laws and passed down our Frost Secret Seed to an outsider. I am at guilty, I, Rainy, shall gladly accept my punishment,” Rainy looked at the white-robed figure, then calmly replied.

Frost Secret Seed!

With this confession, the surrounding Scarlet Sect internal members that gathered here started chattering about.

Rainy raised her head and surveyed the crowds.

Most of the people were looking at her in shock, some gave looks of sympathy, whilst some glared at her in rage. After all, the Frost Secret Seed was the greatest discovery their predecessors have found back in the Frost Hell. Losing just one of them would mean that the Scarlet Snow Sect would lose one of their unique and strong skills.

This was something that negatively affects everyone here.

She looked over to her friends within the Three-Hearts arguing and debating with each other, occasionally throwing her a complicated look of both anger and concern.

Woosh!

A trail of a white shadow landed in the row of the Three-Hearts. It was the tenth-ranked Aloran, her good friend who had always been stationed at the Great Wall Library. At this moment, she had unexpectedly left her duties at the Great Wall Library to come over to the Courtroom.

Amongst the loud chatter in the basicula, Rainy saw Aloran agitatedly talking to the Second Elder about some stuff, however, the Second Elder remained motionless, as if he was legitimately sleeping.

All of the sounds seemed to repeatedly echo in her mind, it started to make her slightly light-headed and fatigued.

After searching for half of her lifetime, this result might just be her karma. Everything seemed to be part of her destiny… one that you cannot change.

“Hmph! Frost Secret Seed… How many years has it been? Losing this Frost Secret Seed is equivalent to losing one of my Scarlet Snow Sect’s unique types of frost legacies. I suggest that Rainy be punished with capital punishment!” The Great Elder coldly stated. His plum portly body seemed to emit a sort of mechanical metallic sound, seeming very strange.

“There are rules to that need to be followed. As one of the strongest sects, being more powerful than numerous countries, once you join, you have to play by our rules! If we start making exceptions, then everyone would start to hope to be pardoned for their crimes! That would cause utter chaos within our entire sect!?” The Third Elder joined in, his voice as sharp as a young boy’s, but at the same time leaving a hint of icy cold cruelness, just listening to it would send shivers down one’s spine.

He stood on top of the Elder’s seat coldly grinning, giving out a chilling atmosphere.

“Hence, I agree with the judgment, she should face capital punishment. Not just that, everyone associated with her shall also be captured as criminals and face similar punishments! Destroying the issue from its roots! Second Elder, what are your thoughts?”

The two’s voices completely eclipsed over the chattering of the entire hall, almost as if their voices were being completely negated. Whenever they tried to speak, they suddenly felt that they could no longer let their voices out.

On top of the courtroom, a blurry layer of white light screen covered the sky above the hall, creating a circular light disc, slowly turning.

After the Elders’ statements, the crowds immediately silenced. Everyone shifted their attention towards the Second Elder. The other two Elders’ stances on the issue were clear, however, the opinion of the Second Elder, who was the strongest amongst the three, still remained an important factor.

“Carthage…” The Second Elder opened his eyes, his gaze falling upon the first of the Three-Hearts. “What are your thoughts?”

Carthage looked calm, realistically speaking, Rainy was one of the best generals within his Star Plate organization, he naturally would not want to lose such a talent. The intent of asking for his opinion on the issue was obvious.

The other two Elders’ gazes also shifted towards Carthage.

A few of the Three-Hearted disciples have already started to split into two factions, one side for the judgment and the other against it. Whilst debating amongst themselves, they had also set their attention on Carthage.

Everyone understood that, after his victory in the battle against the Great Senior Sister of the Blue Frost Sect, this Three-Heart’s potential had reached an immeasurable height. With his current level, becoming an Elder in the future was just a prophecy waiting to happen.

“In my opinion, this crime does not warrant a death punishment,” Carthage slowly opened his mouth, his voice calm.

It was to be expected.

The Great Elder let out a displeased grunt, whilst the Third Elder glared daggers at Carthage, his hands in his pockets as he ground his teeth.

“However…” Carthage once again spoke. “Leaking a precious treasure of the sect, she should have her abilities nullified and face a life sentence being trapped in the Frost Hell and suffer from the Ten-Thousand Heart-Eating Worms.”

Almost instantly, the whole hall completely silenced.

Everyone, from the three Elders to the row of Three-Hearts to the gathered disciples, was shocked from what Carthage had said.

The Ten Thousand Heart-Eating Worms, it was a fate worse than death! Only the worst of the worst criminals in the sect were given such a torturous punishment.

“Great Senior Brother, you bastard!” The tenth-ranked Aloran’s face revealed an insuppressible rage. She understood that Carthage was trying to gain the favor of the sect’s higher-ups, thus he had no choice but to act altruistically and strand on the side of justice, otherwise, he would lose the support of the masses.

However, as a fellow member of the Star Plate, she could not even express her current feelings of rage and anger.

“Sigh… I firmly stand by my opinion,” The Second Elder let out a long sigh.

As he once again shut his eyes, a wave of formless energy field started being emitted from his body.

Whoosh… Almost as if a small spring breeze with the Second Elder as the center, a huge formless energy shrouded the entire basilica, engulfing everyone in it.

“I disagree,” The Great Elder spat out coldly, slamming his hands angrily at the armrests of his seat.

Bam!!

A similar type of formless energy field started bursting out, taking up a third of the basilica’s space.

“So do I!” The Third Elder sharply smiled, his body starting to emit a third wave of energy fields, once again taking up a portion of space within the basilica.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the combined energy fields of the two was barely able to match the Second Elder’s energy field, it seemed to even be ever so slightly weaker.

Having his energy field being slightly suppressed, the Second Elder narrowed his eyes. An even stronger wave of energy fields started to burst out of his body.

A huge pressure suddenly rushed out like a Tsunami.

Whoosh…

Everyone in the basilica could vaguely hear the sounds of a cold windstorm brewing, snowflakes fluttering in the air.

Just purely based on his energy field coverage, the Second Elder managed to have a concrete effect on the surroundings. It was utterly terrifying!

Some of the weaker disciples started experiencing breathing difficulties and physical stiffness, forcing them to retreat dozens of meters away, leaving the basilica to stop their suffering.

The stronger disciples were forcefully resisting the effects. However, their faces all started to turn pale one after the other, seeming that they would not be able last much longer.
