Chapter 1507: Chapter 1480: Severe Punishment
"My soldiers are my brothers, no one can touch them!"
Shu Feng looked seriously at Wang Hui in front of him, who was covering his swollen face with one hand, each word resounding powerfully and deafeningly.
Xiao Yi looked at Shu Feng in surprise.
He didn’t expect Shu Feng would actually hit Wang Hui for him.
He ought to know.
From the very first encounter with Wang Hui, facing all of Wang Hui’s provocations, Shu Feng had always chosen to endure.
No matter how Wang Hui insulted and provoked him, he never retaliated.
He even warned Xiao Yi repeatedly that once he completed registration and became a formal soldier, he must never act rashly.
Otherwise, he would face severe punishment from military regulations.
The impression he gave Xiao Yi was that of a cautious and prudent person.
But now...
This careful and cautious person, always amicable and unwilling to violate military regulations, one might even call him timid, actually openly attacked Wang Hui.
Wang Hui gradually regained his senses, his face full of venom, gritting his teeth, "Shu Feng, how dare you hit me? You actually dare to hit me?"
Shu Feng coldly replied, "Hitting you is nothing!"
Wang Hui was furious and laughed.
No!
He should be said to be laughing arrogantly.
Wang Hui released his hand from his face, revealing a sinister smile.
A trace of bright red seeped from the corner of his mouth.
He had quietly bitten through his tongue, causing blood to overflow from his mouth.
Even though the strong men present were experienced veterans and could see that he had bitten his own tongue, who could provide evidence to prove it?
In military regulations.
Private fights between soldiers, if only small scuffles, end with both parties punished and settled hastily.
But if one party refuses to let go.
Especially if the one refusing to let go is the injured party in the fight.
Then military regulations are not easily dealt with!
"Shu Feng, quickly apologize to Wang Hui!" said a fifth-level soldier who had a good relationship with Shu Feng, speaking sternly.
He desperately gave Shu Feng a meaningful look.
Wang Hui laughed loudly, "Apologize? If apologies worked, why would we need the Law Enforcement Team? Shu Feng, I’ve wanted to punish you for a long time, but you’ve always acted like a turtle, making me unable to find a chance. Today, you actually attacked me for this rookie newcomer, if I don’t punish you severely, I’ll write my name backward!"
"Wang Hui, be lenient when possible, we’re all part of the Vermilion Bird Legion, let’s not embarrass ourselves in front of other legions!"
"It’s just a small matter, no need to blow it up like this. Shu Feng, apologize to Wang Hui, and this matter will end here, no need to escalate to the Law Enforcement Team..."
"How about giving me face?"
Everyone was trying to persuade.
Before Shu Feng could speak.
Wang Hui had already coldly sneered, "Give you face? Who do you think you are? Today’s scope is set, not even the boss man can save him, I said it!"
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A series of deafening, unsettling clangs of metal sounded from afar.
Upon hearing this sound, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
Some showed awe, some nervously sweated in large beads...
"Law, Law Enforcement Team is here!"
"This is bad, Shu Feng is probably going to receive a whipping!"
"Sigh, it was a small matter, how did it become like this..."
Wang Hui was full of satisfaction, his ferocious gaze fixed on Shu Feng, making a throat-slitting gesture: "You’re done for!"
"Who dares cause a commotion in the Military Affairs Department? Tired of living, aren’t they?" a deep roar came from not far off.
A group of soldiers clad in jet-black armor, emblazoned with two bold characters on their chest and back.
Front reads ’Law’, back reads ’Enforcement’!
It’s the terrifying Law Enforcement Team on the battlefield, making all soldiers fear!
The Black Armored Law Enforcement Team, known for being impartial and just.
Holding the Execution Whip, used to punish the law-breaking soldiers!
The Execution Whip is covered with thorns, whipping skin into ribbons counts as light.
Even a strong Nirvana Realm individual can’t easily escape from being hit by the Execution Whip...
"Captain Liu, you must do justice! Shu Feng indulged his subordinate in beating the new recruit I brought, I was just discussing it a bit, and got hit like this, look there’s blood..." previously domineering Wang Hui suddenly changed his tone at this moment, pointing at his bleeding mouth and swollen face, shouting.
Liu Chun was present, captain of the ninety-eighth team of the Law Enforcement.
A master of the first realm of Longevity Secret Realm, Human Venerate Realm.
He slightly frowned, his gaze swept over Wang Hui’s face, with his experience he could tell at a glance Wang Hui’s injury was superficial.
Moreover...
The feud between Wang Hui and Shu Feng was known to many within the Vermilion Bird Legion.
This was definitely Wang Hui taking advantage of the situation, seeking revenge on Shu Feng.
If it were someone else, Liu Chun would have just given them ten Execution Whip strikes and be done with it.
But today’s party involved Wang Hui.
Back in the days.
Before he stepped into Longevity Secret Realm, during a mission, Wang Hui had assisted him, leaving Liu Chun indebted to Wang Hui.
The stronger the cultivation, the clearer the understanding of karma.
The hardest debt to repay is indeed human debt.
Isn’t today the perfect chance to resolve this debt?
Thinking this.
Liu Chun coldly snorted, his gaze like a knife, slicing towards Shu Feng, scolding, "Shu Feng, what do you have to say?"
Shu Feng said, "One takes responsibility for their actions, I indeed violated military regulations, I accept punishment! But, I’ll still say it, my soldiers are my brothers, anyone who wants to touch them has to get past me first!"
"Hmm?"
Liu Chun frowned, before he could speak, Wang Hui had already egged on, "Captain Liu, look at Shu Feng’s attitude? Simply obstinate, unrepentant, he must be severely punished. And as for that new recruit, this matter wouldn’t have escalated if it wasn’t for his meddling..."
"Wang Hui, shut your mouth!"
Shu Feng coldly snapped, his icy gaze firmly fixed on Wang Hui, chilling him to the core, silencing the words on the tip of his tongue, Shu Feng then bowed to Liu Chun, "Captain Liu, today’s fault lies entirely with me, ready to be punished!"
"Captain Liu, you mustn’t let him off easily. If you help me this time, I’ll consider the favor you owe me repaid..." Wang Hui urgently transmitted voice.
Liu Chun showed no expression, yet secretly responded, "Too many eyes here, today’s matters happened in broad daylight, with many witnesses present. As the captain of the Law Enforcement Team, I can’t invert right and wrong..."
"Captain Liu, what do you mean? Unwilling to help me?" Wang Hui suppressed his anger.
"Don’t rush, it’s Shu Feng you want to deal with, isn’t it? I’ll devise a strategy for you. But this time it can only be a minor punishment, else it won’t be convincing!"
Liu Chun responded briefly, ignoring Wang Hui, raising the Execution Whip, swinging it in his palm with a few strikes, addressed Shu Feng, "Since you’ve confessed, no need to waste everyone’s time, I’ll sentence you fifty Execution Whips, any objections?"
Gasp!
A gasp of surprise came from the crowd: "Fifty Execution Whips? That’s too harsh!"
"Though Shu Feng was wrong to strike first, fifty Execution Whips, this punishment is excessive..."
Shu Feng frowned, under normal circumstances this would warrant only ten whips as a minor punishment.
Liu Chun actually opened with fifty Execution Whips, if there’s no Wang Hui’s influence in this, he’d never believe it.
However...
Todays’ fault truly was his for striking first, with a helpless sigh, Shu Feng said, "I have no objections!"
"Very well!"
Liu Chun nodded, the Execution Whip already in his hand crackling sharply, "Since there’s no objection, prepare to be punished!"
Whoosh!
Shu Feng removed his armor, revealing a body full of scars, standing before Liu Chun.
Seeing the Execution Whip about to fall.
But at this time...
Xiao Yi stepped forward, grabbing the whistling Execution Whip, a calm voice echoed within the Military Affairs Department: "This matter started because of me, punish me, what does it have to do with the captain?"
