494 She Is The Legendary Junior Martial Uncle!!
Shen Ruojing’s smile was enigmatic as she said, “Oh, I just felt like it.”
The eldest senior brother was puzzled and looked at Shen Ruojing for clarification when his father interjected, “You feel like it, so you’ll just take it out on the younger generation? It’s been years since you’re back, and the first thing you do is cause trouble. You never change.”
The eldest senior brother remained confused. What younger generation was his father referring to? Shen Ruojing was two years younger than him, so who could be younger than her?
Just then, their grand martial uncle then stepped forward and greeted Shen Ruojing, “Welcome home, Little Junior Sister.”
!!
The eldest senior brother was dumbfounded. Little junior sister? Where did she come from?
Wait a minute… If she was the grand martial uncle’s junior sister, that meant Shen Ruojing was…
The fifth senior brother was equally shocked and stared at Shen Ruojing, stammering, “Sister-in-law, you… you… you…”
“In the clan, you should address me as your little junior uncle,” Shen Ruojing interrupted.
This statement was like a thunderbolt, exploding in the minds of the eldest senior brother and the fifth senior brother. Shen Ruojing was the legendary junior martial uncle of the sect?! And earlier, she had taken down several disciples with just a few moves…
The eldest senior brother’s expression darkened and the grand martial uncle glared at him. “Go and apologize to your little martial uncle. How dare you try to stop her?”
The eldest senior brother was both angry and timid as he looked at Shen Ruojing. “But she didn’t reveal her identity earlier. How were we supposed to know?”
Shen Ruojing shrugged. “Didn’t I mention it? Oh, I must have forgotten.”
The eldest senior brother was left speechless as Shen Ruojing’s intense gaze lingered on him. She had done it on purpose. If she had revealed her identity and made sure that he wouldn’t dare to stop her, how could she vent her anger?
She had always been like this, picking fights with anyone who rubbed her the wrong way, even back in the underground fighting arena.
The second martial uncle’s face was also dark. After all, it was his son who had been beaten. He gave Shen Ruojing a furious glance before saying, “Since you’re back, go and see our master.”
He then walked toward his punishment hall.
Shen Ruojing, however, didn’t follow his advice.
Instead, she followed the second senior uncle, saying, “I heard there is a special prisoner being interrogated in the punishment hall today. Since I’m here, I want to take a look.”
The second martial uncle’s face became even darker. “My punishment hall does not allow you to interfere.”
“I am the future leader of the clan, and all branches are under my control. Do you remember that, Second Senior Brother? If you do, you shouldn’t have said what you just said.”
The second senior uncle. “…”
He snorted in anger. “After all, your relationship with Chu Cimo is a relative. You can only watch but not speak later.”
Shen Ruojing touched her chin. “Then it depends on whether I approve of your punishment or not.”
The second senior uncle, “…”
Shen Ruojing followed the second senior uncle directly into the punishment hall.
Meanwhile, the grand martial uncle happily walked toward Old Hong’s courtyard. Since his little junior sister had returned, his master would surely be happy. He wanted to inform him first.
Only the eldest senior brother and fifth senior brother were left at the scene.
The nearby disciples who were also beaten up rushed over and gathered around the eldest senior brother, asking, “What should we do now, Senior Brother?”
The eldest senior brother’s face was very grim.
Upon hearing this, he scolded, “What’s the hurry?”
He then spoke fiercely, “So what if she’s the legendary junior martial uncle? The punishment hall belongs to my father. You guys go outside and watch. As long as not many people come to speak on his behalf, Chu Cimo will definitely be expelled from the sect today!”
“Yes.”
After saying this, the eldest senior brother followed Shen Ruojing to the punishment hall.
The time had come.
After Shen Ruojing and the second senior uncle entered, the second senior uncle deliberately didn’t introduce Shen Ruojing to everyone and just pointed to the side, saying, “If you want to watch, just stand there!”
In the middle of the room, Chu Cimo heard this and turned his head to see Shen Ruojing. He was instantly stunned and exclaimed, “Sister-in-law? Why are you here?!”
Then he looked in the direction of the door. “Did my elder brother come too?”
With this, he became anxious. “Are you guys here to rescue me? There’s no need! I’m not in a hurry to leave! I did something wrong, and I’m willing to accept punishment!”
Chu Cimo came here to connect the Valor gate with the Chu and Shen families, not to cause the three parties to feud!
The reason why Chu Cimo didn’t let the fifth senior brother tell their family about the incident was also for this reason.
But his eldest senior brother had spread the news, and in the end, information leaked out!
Chu Cimo was getting anxious at the moment.
Seeing his behavior, Shen Ruojing cleared her throat and slowly said, “I’m just here to observe the punishment, don’t worry. Your elder brother is outside with the people you once helped. He’ll bring them in later.”
“Bring them in?”
After hearing these words, Chu Cimo became even more anxious.
He even wanted to break free from the ropes that bound him. “Sister-in-law, please don’t do this. This is Valor Gate, my martial arts sect, and I don’t want to see you all become enemies because of me! I’d feel guilty later!”
Shen Ruojing. “…..”
She pursed her lips and looked at the sky before glancing at the second martial uncle. However, the second martial uncle still didn’t introduce her. He was apparently still holding a grudge against her.
Shen Ruojing cleared her throat and was about to reveal her identity to Chu Cimo when the second martial uncle suddenly spoke up, “Alright, time’s up. Now I’m going to announce Chu Cimo’s sentence!”
He pulled out a piece of paper. “According to Valor Gate’s investigation, Chu Cimo has stolen 58 times between four years ago and five years ago! The evidence is conclusive, and he has admitted to it. According to Valor Gate’s laws, he is sentenced to having his martial arts revoked and his legs crippled before being expelled. Therefore, today’s public punishment is being held as a warning to all of you not to commit theft!”
After he finished, he asked unconsciously, “Do any of you have any objections?!”
The rest of the Valor Gate disciples did not speak.
Chu Cimo said, “I want to plead for myself… I just don’t want to be expelled from Valor Gate. I’ll accept all other punishments!”
“You don’t have the right to speak!” The second martial uncle rebuked him angrily before he continued, “Since no one has any objections, now…”
...
Before he could finish, Shen Ruojing slowly said, “I do.”
As soon as she spoke, the whole audience fell silent!
Everyone looked at her.
Since no one had introduced her identity, those who followed the elder senior brother immediately spoke up, “Who are you? What right do you have to interfere with our Valor Gate’s affairs?”
“Yeah, who let you in? Since you’re here, it’s only because you’re related to him. What qualifications do you have to speak here?”
Chu Cimo was also afraid that Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen would really clash with Valor Gate. He shouted, “Sister-in-law, please don’t cause any trouble. I admit to my crimes!…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a hoarse but powerful voice came from outside the door. “You bunch of idiots! Do you know who you guys are talking to?!”
