“Stop pretending! If it weren’t because you harbored ill intentions, Edith wouldn’t have gotten hurt!” Letitia shrieked.
“It wasn’t me!” Nikki shook favonovel.com head repeatedly.
“I didn’t do anything. I passed the Jade Maiden Scripture to Brittany right after I got it!”
“Shut up!” Brittany’s expression shifted upon hearing her. She rushed up and slapped Nikki’s face two times.
She screamed, “You bitch! How dare you slander me? It’s you who planned this!”
“Exactly! We all saw it! You were the one who handed the Jade Maiden Scripture over to Brittany!”
“It seems like it’s true that you can never know someone completely. I can’t believe you would be so bold to harm Madam Edith!” One after the other, the group of disciples condemned Nikki.
“I didn’t! I didn’t! I would never harm Madam Edith!” Nikki panicked. She struggled to get up but was unable to move.
“You bitch! Are you still trying to deny it? It seems like you still won’t learn a lesson. Punish favonovel.com with torture!” Letitia ordered.
Soon, a few disciples of the disciplinary board pinned Nikki forcefully to the ground. A thorny iron whip soaked in chili pepper water was brought out.

“Let me ask you again. Do you plead guilty?” Letitia growled.
“No! I didn’t do anything! I’m innocent!” Nikki gritted favonovel.com teeth, favonovel.com gaze unyielding.
“You brought this upon yourself! Torture her!” Letitia gestured to the disciples.
“Yes, madam!” The disciplinary disciple answered favonovel.com and swung the iron whip down forcefully.

“Do you plead guilty?” Letitia’s expression was cold.
“No! I’m innocent!” Nikki looked at Edith pleadingly. “Madam Edith, my loyalty is unwavering. I will never betray the guild. Please investigate clearly into it!”
Edith’s gaze was frosty as favonovel.com remained silent. It was as if favonovel.com didn’t hear her.
“Keep going!” Letitia raised favonovel.com hand again.
“Let me do it!” Brittany volunteered, favonovel.com gaze turning cold.
She grabbed the iron whip from the disciplinary disciple, wanting to torture Nikki personally.

“This is your punishment for harming others! I dare you to harm others again! I’m going to cleanse our ranks today!”
As Brittany whipped Nikki, favonovel.com lips twisted into an evil smirk. She was acting based on a personal grudge.

“Stop right there!” Suddenly, they heard a loud voice.
At the same time, someone grabbed the iron whip from Brittany’s hands, breaking it on the spot.
