Chapter 832 Grand Elders
Davis appeared beside Princess Isabella, a terrifying mask that hid his facial features. It was none other than the Solitary Soul Avatar, who was clad in black robes and hood that blocked perception to a degree.
Looking at the figure who looked burly but had an amicable and reserved temperament, even Davis became confused. It was as if Grand Elder Rakhgal was a bodybuilding monk who is always reserved and polite.
"Since you're here, I assume that a Grand Elder from Falling Snow Sect is also here?" Davis turned to look in a particular direction that was empty.
Grand Elder Rakhgal blinked before he chuckled, "What is this? Didn't you say that you can't be bothered to witness a battle between juniors, Rosella?"
A figure materialized in midair around them, at the direction where Davis looked at before a melodious and reserved voice echoed, "To think that this rumored expert can see through my Nethersnow Mirage Steps... I am convinced!"
She appeared beautiful with her lush black hair, and she wore the robes of the Falling Snow Sect. She was also another Peak-Level Law Rune Stage Expert!
Grand Elder Rakhgal just shook his head at being ignored.
"Grand Elder!" Elder Enye quickly approached and arrived behind Rosella before she bowed deeply. It could be seen that she possessed deep respect for this expert known as Grand Elder Rosella.
Grand Elder Rosella didn't turn back but just gave a single nod as she observed the black-robed man in front of her before clasping her hand.
Davis did not return the etiquette but instead looked at Grand Elder Rakhgal in silence. His stare was eerie, making the four of them a little uncomfortable, while the two elders felt deeply pressured.
Davis knew that this was the result of their minds playing tricks on them. That's what people would get for believing facts that were exaggerated, except he had the power to back that exaggeration with Fallen Heaven.
Grand Elder Rosella looked at the surroundings below them with a sweep of her head, "Looks like that fellow Towerfall is responsible for quite a crime by killing at least ten thousand innocent people. How is the Towering Cloud Hall going to take responsibility for this terrible crime?"
At this time, another figure appeared as he echoed, "This is my Alstreim Family's Territory, and the people your Towering Cloud Hall's Elder has ruthlessly killed amounted to more than ten thousand people!"
"To be this tyrannical in our Territory, what is the meaning of this? If the Towering Cloud Hall doesn't give an acceptable answer, then don't think everything will go your way easily!" Elder Havle Alstreim yelled with visible anger etched on his face.
It didn't look as if he was faking it because he was truly angered Elder Towerfall tried to kill the Conferred Queen. No one knew that she had such strength, so the fact remained that it was to kill when Elder Towerfall took action!
As for the people... who cared about that? He wasn't righteous in the first place. Although he felt pity, he had his priorities straight and demanded a satisfactory explanation for the casualties caused! If he didn't have Elder Towerfall punished, he didn't know how to make it up to senior.
Grand Elder Rakhgal inwardly sighed. It was one thing if there were no evidence, but there were many people who had witnessed Elder Towerfall's unbridled tyranny in trying to attack the Conferred Queen on experiencing a loss of face. He was just among the crowd, so he too knew what had transpired.
Having no other choice, he opened his mouth, "Elder Towerfall will be punished for his crimes and be demoted to be a deacon. His cultivation base will be sealed and will be kept in the Towering Cloud Hall's Dungeon of Repentance for fifty years."
Elder Havle Alstreim became stunned. Was he just given a satisfactory answer this easily?
He had heard about the Dungeon of Repentance before. It is quite famous since it is said that the Hall Leader of the Towering Cloud Hall seemed to have endured the constant yet mighty whips of the Dungeon of Repentance that could be said to make a Martial Master Stage Cultivator squeal in pain.
It seemed to be a punishment for going against the words of the Towering Cloud Hall's Ancestor.
The Hall Leader seemed to be there only for a year with his cultivation base sealed, but when he came out, rumors said that he was as miserable as a beggar with his hair disheveled and his clothes torn apart. The rumor had it that this incident was the eternal shame of the Hall Leader, but it also boosted the Dungeon of Repentance's reputation!
Then to keep Elder Towerfall in this Dungeon of Repentance for fifty years with his cultivation base sealed, wasn't it good as a death sentence?
When Elder Havle Alstreim turned to look at Elder Towerfall, he could see that the latter was pale with his expression contorted. It took only another moment for him to fall to his knees in midair.
"Grand Elder, please have mercy! It was those people's fault for witnessing a battle too closely. Elder Enye had even reminded them to go afar in the beginning, but they didn't listen. How is it my fault when they were simply killed by the rubble that flew from the martial platform!?"
"Idiot! You even dare to pull me in and even went far as to say that the rubble killed them!? If it weren't for me erecting an ice barrier in time, can you imagine how many people would have died!??" Elder Enye screamed and was about to attack Elder Towerfall when Grand Elder Rosella stopped her with a swing of her hand.
Elder Enye bit her lower lip before she slightly bowed her head as if she regained her bearings and said like an obedient child, "I was impulsive..."
"Grand Elder, please save me! I swear to the heavens that I wouldn't be rash and careless anymore!" Elder Towerfall pleaded.
"My decision is final..." Grand Elder Rakhgal shook his head.
"Grand Elder!!?"
"Obediently return!" Grand Elder Rakhgal's expression and voice contained ounces of anger.
Elder Towerfall's expression shook, but he had no choice but to lower his head in this matter. He was aware that he had made a blunder after being punched all the way to the ark. He should've never even touched the Conferred Queen, but anger had overwhelmed him, leading to his current disaster.
Grand Elder Rakhgal inwardly sighed as looked at Elder Towerfall.
The Towering Cloud Hall possessed three Emperor Grade Body Tempering Cultivation Manuals, of which one of them led to the Ninth Stage at the max. It was a High-Level Emperor Grade Body Tempering Cultivation Manual! It allowed cultivators to reach the Mid-Level Ninth Stage at the apex, and that was its limit.
Only the top hall disciples, a few elders, and grand elders who were previously top disciples, hall leaders, and the ancestor have trained in it! This was a cultivation manual with little flaws, but it cannot be said to be the same about the other two cultivation manuals.
As for the other two cultivation manuals, they were Mid-Level Emperor Grade Body Tempering Cultivation Manuals, whose limit was the peak of the Eighth Stage.
One was the Fire-Attributed Body Tempering Cultivation Manual, which Baize used, and the other was the Earth-Attributed Body Tempering Cultivation Manual, which Elder Towerfall and the core disciple Halifan Grisel cultivated.
