Great Patriarch squinted. His face was clouded.
He was acting as well. He needed a way out and he wanted to give the Hall of Patriarchs a way out. As for what Lu Li thought, Great Patriarch didn't care.
The fact that Great Patriarch was here was a statement of his attitude. If the patriarchs could understand, so could Luo Feiyan.
Great Patriarch would not show his face easily. This time, he had no other choice. The younger generation was disappointing. Tan Long was the only one who could be trusted. Great Patriarch must protect the family's legacy.
Great Patriarch was determined to be strong all his life. If he wanted to protect someone, he would not lower himself to beg. Therefore, he had to put on a show. He believed that the patriarchs would cooperate with him. After all, many of them had been helped by him.
The patriarchs were cooperative. Chief Patriarch said nothing. Everything was supposed to go smoothly. However, Lu Li's words stunned everyone, including Rain Demon. He didn't know how to deal with the situation.
Lu Li didn't play by the rules. He was trying to push the three of them to the brink of death.
What kind of person was Rain Demon?
That was the top powerhouse in the entire Rakshasa Sea. He could make the Rakshasa Palace tremble with just a stomp of his foot. Not to mention him coming out personally, even if he sent someone to pass a message, who would dare to ignore his opinion?
Lu Li was slapping them in the face in public, loud and clear!
The atmosphere became awkward. Rain Demon didn't say anything and neither did the others. The atmosphere in the hall was suffocating.
Rain Demon's expressions were clouded. Inevitably, his qi and energy leaked out.
He squinted at Lu Li. Even though there was no killing intent in his eyes, Lu Li felt like a mountain was pressing down on him, suffocating him.
Tan Long, Ning Ao and Hu Qianjun glared at Lu Li with hatred. If they were really expelled from the Palace of Devil Sea, not only would they be killed right away, it would be difficult for them to go back to the Palace of Devil Sea.
By then, they would have to wander around outside like ghosts or hide in a secret stronghold of the Palace of Devil Sea. That would be worse than death.
After a full five breaths of time, the Internal Affairs Hall Elder finally broke the silence. He said: "Nurturing a powerhouse requires countless resources. If they are easily crippled and expelled, it is a great waste of resources.
How about this?
Throw them into the Milky Way Realm and let them serve for ten thousand years. The three of them will go to clear out the evil spirits inside, and there must be no elders to protect them. If they die in battle, then they are unlucky. "
The status of the Internal Affairs Hall Elder in Rakshasa Palace was quite high. After all, he was in charge of all the internal affairs. He was in charge of all the resource allocation. If someone offended him, they would not have a good life in the future.
His words could be considered to be fair. Not only did he punish the three, but he also took the three families' faces into consideration. He could also give Lu Li an explanation.
Lu Li frowned. He was not satisfied. Who knew if the three families would send someone to protect them secretly?
After serving for ten thousand years, if someone were to play tricks on them, they could quietly take them away after serving for a few years. At that time, they would still be free and unfettered.
Even in the Tianhe Realm, with the power of the three families, they could still live comfortably.
Tan Long and the other two had bitter expressions on their faces. If they stayed in the Tianhe Realm for 10,000 years, even if they had a life of luxury, even if their clans sent them hundreds of beauties, they would still go crazy.
"Ten thousand years is too long, isn't it?"
A patriarch said, "A warrior may seem to have a long life, but how many can actually live for 100,000 years?
I think the three of them will be driven crazy in there. I think we should give them something to look forward to. Just serve for a thousand years.
Let them cultivate and reflect on themselves inside. When they come out, they will be the three great generals of our Rakshasa Palace. "
Another grey-haired patriarch chimed in, "Patriarch Liu is right. I think even a thousand years is too long. A hundred years is better.
The three of them will be imprisoned for a hundred years. I think after this, they will turn over a new leaf and become a new man. "
Tan Long and the other two's eyes glowed. A hundred years was nothing. It would be over soon after some cultivation.
Maybe the three of them could reach the Fourth Tribulation Realm. This kind of punishment was nothing to them.
"I don't think we need a hundred years!"
Lu Li said again with a light smile, "How about we throw them in the Tianhe Realm for a month?
Let them recuperate and then they can come out to assassinate others. "
The grey-haired patriarch was ashamed and angry. Lu Li was being too harsh. He didn't show him any respect. The patriarch glared at Lu Li and said, "Son of God, when it is possible to forgive and forget, one should forgive and forget. In the future, if you do something wrong, nobody will plead for you."
"What are you talking about …"
Lu Li rolled his eyes and said, "I was almost assassinated and I almost died. Did anyone say anything for me?
If my surname was Tan and I was assassinated by some average warrior, even a patriarch, the entire family of the patriarch would be killed.
Come to think of it … I, the Son of God, am really just a decoration. Have any of you ever cared about my feelings? "
"Eh …"
Lu Li's words made the atmosphere awkward again. What Lu Li said was the truth. They didn't take him seriously.
The thing was … it was enough for them to know it. There was no need to say it out loud.
What was the point of making it so awkward?
He was eloquent and unforgiving!
That was the feeling Lu Li gave. Some things could not be put on the table but Lu Li had laid them all out and demanded an explanation. The patriarchs were having a headache.
Who dared to disrespect Rain Demon when he was here in person?
But Lu Li was relentless. If they could not satisfy Lu Li, there would be no end to this.
They could not kill Lu Li in one move, could they?
After all, it was Luo Feiyan who appointed Lu Li to be the Son of God.
"Since no one is going to say anything to you, then this consort will say the other half."
Just as the Great Elder and the others were at their wits' end, a gentle voice rang out. The group of people in the hall immediately became serious, and even Rain Demon's expression became a bit more respectful.
That gentle voice continued after a pause, "Tan Long, Ning Ao, and Hu Qianjun tried to assassinate the Son of God. The evidence is conclusive and the impact is bad. If we don't punish the three, we will not be able to uphold the rules.
Considering that the three are young and the contributions of Rain Demon and the others over the years, the death penalty can be spared.
Send the three to the Underworld Realm and let them stay there for three years. If they can come out alive, everything will be written off. Do you have any objections? "
"Underworld Realm?"
Many patriarchs in the hall were taken aback. Even Chief Patriarch and the others were taken aback. Rain Demon's expression became even more gloomy.
Apart from Lu Li, everyone here knew what kind of place the Underworld Realm was. Apart from Chief Patriarch, Rain Demon and the others, even the average patriarchs could not survive for three years.
The probability of the three coming out alive was less than 10% …
…
