Chapter 7: Summary of the battle

Before Jiang Yun could continue speaking, Ye Chen quickly interrupted him.

"I already apologized to you! What more do you want from me...?"

A tense silence enveloped the entire arena. All eyes were on Jiang Yun and Ye Chen.

Jiang Yun didn't reply immediately. Instead, he gestured with his hand, summoning his power to create a Heaven Concealing Formation. At the same time, he swiftly formed an ice sword, which shimmered with a chilling energy. Before anyone could react, he swung the sword at Ye Chen's hand that wore the ring, severing it instantly. Without hesitation, Jiang Yun froze the severed hand with his own ice power.

Ye Chen's agonized scream echoed throughout the arena, his face turning pale. Everyone present was shocked by Jiang Yun's actions, including Lin Qingyi. She was so startled that she could hardly believe her own eyes. Although she could have stopped Jiang Yun, she refrained, believing that her disciple would never act in such a way. But the situation did not unfold as she had expected. It was difficult for her to accept, and her anger surged, releasing immense pressure toward Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun fell to his knees under the overwhelming pressure, and the Heaven Concealing Formation shattered immediately. Yet his expression remained calm. Lin Qingyi, furious, questioned him.

"Ye Chen has already apologized. Why did you still cut off his hand?"

Jiang Yun looked up at her with calm eyes and replied in a composed voice.

"You told me to ask for something else, but I never said I wouldn't take Ye Chen's ring, Supreme Elder."

Lin Qingyi was stunned, but before she could say more, Jiang Yun continued, "If merely saying sorry could erase everything that has been done, this world would be a paradise without tears. But in truth, this world is not as beautiful as you think. In my view, an apology is just a tool we use to convey remorse and ask for a chance to make amends to the victim. It doesn't mean that by saying sorry, everything that was done never happened. Do you think I'm ten years old, Supreme Elder?"

Jiang Yun's words left Lin Qingyi speechless. She tried to hold back her anger and spoke coldly.

"Can't you forgive him? He just made a mistake for the first time."

Jiang Yun immediately retorted, "Suppose I had cut off his hand for the first time, and I apologized. Would he forgive me? Perhaps he might say yes, but deep down, he would not feel that way. How can you be sure he won't harbor resentment? It's necessary to leave something as a constant reminder. Once an action has occurred, it cannot be undone. When one is wronged, they must retaliate. That is my way."

Lin Qingyi fell silent. She understood well that feelings and relationships were not her area of expertise. She was rather solitary by nature, and her inner world was not as complex as Jiang Yun's, and she was not even thirty years old.

The Divine Lord, seeing the situation escalating, spoke to Lin Qingyi through a spiritual voice transmission. They conversed for a moment before she finally said, "You may take the ring, but you must return Ye Chen's hand."

Jiang Yun thought for a moment before agreeing. "Fine, but he must kneel and apologize to me."

His words left everyone in the arena stunned. Some were filled with anger, while others felt a sense of admiration. Lin Qingyi looked at Jiang Yun with eyes full of fury and asked,

"Do you still see me as your master?"

Jiang Yun smirked coldly, removed the ring from his finger, and immediately tossed the frozen hand to Ye Chen. At that moment, Zhang Xinye appeared. She caught the severed hand and began treating Ye Chen with water techniques.

Seeing that everything was going according to his plan and there was nothing more for him to do, Jiang Yun bid farewell to the Divine Lord, his master, and the other elders before turning to leave. Mu Chuyuan, too, lost interest and walked away immediately.

As he was about to leave the arena, Lin Qingyi sent a voice transmission to him.

"In three days, come see me at the Peak of the Supreme Elder."

Jiang Yun turned to bow in acknowledgment before departing, walking past Ye Chen, who was lying in his sister's arms, filled with rage, shame, and pain. He had lost his reputation, honor, and even his master. In his mind, he quickly thought about how to retrieve the ring. He desperately pleaded with his four senior sisters to get it back for him, but they all remained silent. Seeing this, Ye Chen spat out blood and fainted, prompting them to rush him for immediate medical treatment.

After Jiang Yun left, everyone began talking with various emotions. Some were shocked, some felt pity, some admired, and others were angry. The events of the day had caused quite a commotion.

As Jiang Yun walked out of the arena, he noticed a female disciple with long, flowing green hair partially covering her face, but her graceful figure could not hide her beauty. She was Mu Chuyuan, the third disciple of Lin Qingyi and Jiang Yun's junior sister. He was slightly surprised to see her approach him.

Mu Chuyuan asked in a suspicious tone, "Did you go too far?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yun turned to look at her and replied, slightly disappointed, "What went too far?"

Then, he ascended into the air and flew away without paying her any more attention.

Mu Chuyuan was greatly shocked, as Jiang Yun was usually kind and friendly to her.

"What could have caused my senior brother to change so drastically?" she wondered.

Jiang Yun opened the system. The system's voice spoke up with a hint of resentment.

[Congratulations to the host for cutting off the hand of the Child of Destiny, Ye Chen, reducing his Luck Value by 200,000, and earning 2,000,000 Villain Points. Ye Chen now has a remaining Luck Value of 2,500,000.]

Jiang Yun asked the system with curiosity, "What about the ring I took?"

The system replied, [There is a chance the ring will return to the Child of Destiny.]

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment before planning his next move. At that moment, the system asked another question.

"Why did the host return his hand? Why not destroy it entirely? The heavens might not have intervened."

Jiang Yun replied with a cold smile, "I left a special gift in that hand."

The system continued to inquire, [What about your Divine Bone?]

Jiang Yun answered, "I can't connect with the bone's sense at all, but I have a plan for it. When the time comes, I might have an unlimited supply of Divine Bones."
