Chapter 5,765: Selfish Gain

is body.The pain brought by that phantom wouldn't diminish in the slightest."Ah..." Dao Kong's body twitched, his aura extremely unstable.Fang Yu had both hands on the broken part of Taisui's armor.At...Leading the elite to abandon the battlefield and leave the Immortal Realm of Eternity

If true, this would indeed be a grave offense.

And the Qin Tianbei that Di Shi mentioned was still a general of this level, his crimes would be even heavier.

"Why did he do that" Fang Yu asked.

"They say, they say..."

Di Shi's voice dropped even lower, and he glanced around as if afraid someone might overhear him.

"It is said that he wants to return to his birthplace, the fairy realm called Chenyu Fairy Realm..."

"If he wants to go back, let him go back. Why does he need to bring so many elite soldiers with him" Fang Yu asked in confusion.

"It seems like he's trying to help solve some opponent issue, that's not quite clear," Di Shi whispered. "But the reason isn't important really. From the moment General Qin chose to lead his elite troops out of the Eternal Immortal Realm, he made a grave mistake."

"What happened next" Fang Yu continued to ask.

“What happened later I heard that General Qin hadn’t even reached the Chenyu Immortal Realm when he was stopped by several powerful figures from the Dao Alliance… Naturally, his powers were revoked and he was escorted back to our Eternal Life Immortal Realm.” Di Shi shook his head and sighed. “I've met General Qin a few times, he's a good man, much easier to get along with than those other generals!”

"I just can't figure out why he would make such a mistake, it's such a shame..."

"What kind of punishment might he face" Fang Yu asked again.

"Well... it's hard to say. This has never happened before." Di Shi said solemnly, "If treated as a deserter, that would be a death sentence. But General Qin is a general, and his actions... I don't think they quite qualify as desertion either, just..."

"Tap tap tap..."

At this moment, a hurried set of footsteps suddenly came from beside.

Di Shi immediately shut his mouth.

Fang Yu turned his head to the side and saw a team quickly walking towards the main hall ahead.

They wore the same silver armor, marched in unison, and had grave, even somber expressions.

Due to their swift pace, they soon entered the grand hall.

And the many cultivators who followed behind them began to murmur amongst themselves.

"Just now, that team… they all seem to be former subordinates of General Qin, don't they" Di Shi whispered to Fang Yu. "They came together as a group, probably to plead for General Qin."

"Forget it, let's not discuss this anymore. Let's go inside and talk."

"Anyway, just rest assured, Lao Yu, your matter is a small thing!"

Di Shi patted Fang Yu on the shoulder and comforted him.

Fang Yu stopped speaking and looked ahead.

General Qin Tianbei…

This name, he heard it for the first time.

But the general's rank within the Dao League was already very high.

The ranks of generals, from low-level, mid-level, to high-level.

After the Advanced rank comes the Commander, and after that, the General.

Fang Yu, who replaced Yu Qianqiu, is only a mid-level general, but he also has the power to command 50,000 soldiers!

Therefore, something happening to a war general of Qin Tianbei's level...that would indeed be a major event that would shake the Dao Alliance!

Fang Yu knew that the event happening before his eyes must be a crucial **piece** of this era!

Otherwise, he won't go back to this time!

Fang Yu's eyes became cold, and his mood was also a little excited.

He had a feeling he would soon be able to access those buried truths!

……

Fang Yu and Di Shi walked into the main hall together.

Upon entering, I was struck by the grandeur of the interior.

Facing you is a grand hall.

but

Three sides of the hall were lined with seats.

Form a battle formation based on the rank of your generals, with higher-ranking generals positioned further forward.

Above the hall, there were also eight thrones floating in mid-air.

At this moment, there is no one in sight on the seats.

The entire hall was bustling with activity, and the members of the Taoist League who had arrived were all finding their designated places according to the rules.

Fang Yu and Di Shi stood in the second-to-last row on the left side of the seats.

"Wow, this isn't a normal conference, this is a court of judgment..." Di Shi looked ahead, his expression horrified.

"Those eight high seats, are they for the Eight Venerables of the Dao Alliance" Fang Yu asked subconsciously.

Di Shi turned to Fang Yu, his face full of suspicion and said, "That's natural, you're not the first time participating in the Dao League Conference."

Fang Yu realized his words were a little off, so he said, "I was just thinking... would they all be coming"

"Not necessarily. The eight venerables' identities are far more than just the deputy leader of the Dao Alliance. Before the Dao Alliance was founded, they were each leaders of top-tier forces and naturally had many affairs to handle," Di Shi said. "Especially the alliance leader, who rarely appears."

However, given today's situation, I estimate at least four to five deputy alliance leaders will be present.

After all, it was a general who got into trouble.

When Di Shi and Fang Yu talked, the many seats in the main hall were basically filled with people.

At a casual guess, there are probably over 50,000 people in the stadium.

These are all officers above the rank of lieutenant colonel!

As you can imagine, the scale of the Dao League during this period was enormous!

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

As the hall was nearly filled to capacity, eight high thrones above suddenly flickered with light.

As streaks of light flashed, figures appeared one by one on the high platform.

Seven figures in total!

"All seven deputy league leaders are here… only the leader himself is absent!" Di Shi widened his eyes, looking shocked, and said, "It seems these bigwigs all take General Qin's matter very seriously."

"Only the alliance leader hasn't arrived, huh..." Fang Yu stared at the seven figures in front of him.

Only one seat was left in the middle.

These seven deputy leaders are five men and two women.

They were robed, some youthful in appearance, others old.

But none of them released their cultivation aura.

Just sitting there, he exuded an aura of dominance that suppressed the entire room.

The grand hall fell silent instantly.

Di Shi also stood straight, not daring to speak any more.

In the hall, sitting in the middle was a white-haired old man.

His face was creased with wrinkles, but his eyes were incredibly sharp, flashing with cold light at times.

"Today I've called you all together for one main thing."

Concerning the determination of Qin Tianbei's criminal liability and the measure of punishment.

The old man spoke, his low voice echoing throughout the entire hall.

Fang Yu's eyes narrowed.

As Di Shi said, the main, and perhaps only, thing to be addressed at this meeting today is General Qin Tianbei's crimes!

"Bring the war criminal Qin Tianbei here."

The elder spoke again.

"Buzz..."

Then, a radiance arose before the main hall.

A disheveled man, wearing a white prison uniform, knelt on the ground with his hands tied behind his back.

He was directly teleported to the hall and knelt before the seven deputy leaders.

Seeing the prisoners kneeling in the hall, expressions of shock appeared on the faces of the members of the Dao League seated around them.

A chilling sight.

They know, this is Qin Tianbei!

This is a general!

In the past, Qin Tianbei stood in the front three rows of the seats, enjoying endless glory!

Now, Qin Tianbei is wearing a prisoner's uniform, his hands bound, kneeling on the ground. He has become a war criminal, a sinner, awaiting trial!

The difference before and after... is really huge.

This was undoubtedly a huge shock for all the members of the Dao Alliance present.

Once a crime is committed, even a general cannot escape punishment... they who are of lower ranks need not even think about it!

"My God, General Qin has fallen to such a state..."

At this time, Di Shi beside him seemed a little unbelievable and couldn't help but speak.

"This is too cruel, even if Qin the Great General made a mistake, it shouldn't be punished like this... With Qin the Great General’s strength, even before the establishment of the Dao Alliance, he was a powerful figure! After joining the Dao Alliance, he also made many great achievements. I didn't expect that one mistake would erase everything..."

There was shock and pity in Di Shi's eyes.

Fang Yu remained silent, his gaze fixed steadily on Qin Tianbei in the hall.

Qin Tianbei knelt on the ground, his head pressed to the earth.

His snow-white hair concealed his features, leaving no one able to see his expression at that moment.

"Qin Tianbei, are you aware of your crimes"

A woman with a pink ribbon wrapped around her body spoke softly from slightly to his left.

Qin Tianbei did not respond.

“For personal gain, you deserted your post and, using your authority, forced many subordinates who were on duty to leave the battlefield and follow you out of the Everlasting Immortal Realm…” The woman continued, her eyes narrowed, a cold light flickering in them. “Do you know how grave your crimes are”

(The End).. or rather, I have to deal with that Di Chen. 。"Fang Yu's eyes were cold. " 。Di Chen, this guy, was one of the people who directly participated in the siege of Yuhua Gate back then. 。This grudge, I...
