Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength

```

However, even so, the audience was still incredibly shocked.

"This kid is impressive!"

"Very powerful, very violent, truly awesome!"

The host narrated the backstory of the incident, and then, the audience listened with baffled fascination.

After the murder, Meng Yu uploaded the footage from his personal recorder to the internet and several news outlets, letting everyone know what had happened.

Honestly, no one sympathized with the Meng Family. Looking at their history of making a fortune, it was all trash, and they even took the wrong steps one after another, plotting to steal the Third-Grade Marrow-Cleansing Pill from the younger generation and then urinating in their parents' cinerary casket!

"Meng Yu is a good student."

A classmate stood up and talked about Meng Yu's character at school. The school's recorder was still there, with videos of him cleaning up early every day and helping out afterwards.

"His second uncle is trash, indulging in eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring without restraint. He has even been imprisoned for blackmail before. Oh right, he also once tried to tempt Meng Yu into gambling."

This was something a kind-hearted citizen came forward with, and reporters dug it up.

"The death of the Meng Family members served them right. My son and daughter-in-law opened a store and refused to buy their goods. They claimed there were rats in the store and ran it into the ground."

This was the accusation of a victim who stepped forward.

A wave of public opinion was forming, and people even unearthed Meng Yu's talents. For example, a few poems he had posted on some forums recently revealed that this honest-looking fellow was actually a poet with an extremely high level of skill. His bursts of inspiration were simply genius.

Right, he went to Teacher Cheng's home and crippled Teacher Cheng's brother. This incident was also massively exposed, including various details about Teacher Cheng.

A talented girl could have had a better future, but she gave resources to her brother time after time during college, missing out on better opportunities for advanced study. Later, she returned home to take care of her parents and remained unmarried at twenty-eight, while her brother squandered her hard-earned money on various misdeeds, including one time hiring three Hehuan Sect girls, and so on.

Teacher Cheng had always been kind to Meng Yu, so after the second-year student had killed all his family relatives, he went to Teacher Cheng's house and crippled her brother, rendering him inhuman.

Was that too much?

There is an old saying: "I don't fear your gambling or debauchery, but I do fear your cultivation, especially those who gamble and debauch while cultivating, as they're simply an abyss." Thinking about it, by crippling Teacher Cheng's brother and reducing him to an ordinary person, Teacher Cheng would only need to spend one-thousandth of her previous money to ensure he could live a good life — as a non-Qi Refinement Practitioner, one's capacity to cause trouble is limited.

Meng Yu killed his relatives and could be said to be taking revenge, but this latest move was like turning stones into gold.

"Look, he can control his killing intent."

"He's brave and strategic, giving up the chance to escape and choosing instead to help his teacher solve her problem."

"Ah, if I had a boy like that to dedicate himself to me, I'd be willing too."

Meng Yu never considered running away.

Escaping was impossible; he had thoroughly read posts online about how to become a fugitive, including various ways to enter the underworld. But first, if he could see those posts, he shouldn't trust them too much; they were all traps. Second, he was on Supreme Star, where the security was top-notch. His case had blown up too big.

Always remember, a criminal doesn't face just one or two police officers or stations, but an organization led by a Nascent Soul Expert and staffed by dozens of Golden Core Masters. The more prominent the case, the more resources they'll devote to it.

He really didn't understand how to flee and couldn't get out of Supreme Star; it was also very easy to have an accident or even die during the manhunt.

So, given the choice between turning himself in and crippling Cheng Xin Tong, Meng Yu had made his choice.

If you love a girl, and you don't dare to cripple her brother for her, what kind of true love is that?

...

Dozens of days later.

"Meng Yu, hello, I am a reporter from Sky TV, and I am very pleased to interview you today. May I ask, when Meng Tianyou tried to take your Third-Grade Marrow-Cleansing Pill, why didn't you contact the authorities to deal with the matter beforehand?"

"I did contact them. They sent someone over and advised me to negotiate the best I could, and they would help negotiate too, but after that, it wasn't clear anymore."

Meng Yu did not speak the entire truth, nor did he rant against those departments or curse in anger.

"So, what would you like to say now?"

```

"I regret it."

"I was wrong."

"I shouldn't have been impulsive."

Once inside the prison, Meng Yu behaved well and voluntarily confessed to various crimes, though naturally not including the death of his uncle.

He claimed that after that person left that day, he didn't know where he went and so on. He simply insisted on that point, maintaining that he had definitely not done anything excessive.

Although everyone knew that with his mercilessness, his uncle must have gone to another world, they all liked to watch him stubbornly lie with an air of arrogance.

"Do you think he could be sentenced to death?"

A police officer, looking at Meng Yu, asked.

"He won't die, first, he turned himself in, and second, this matter involves a lot."

The officer said with a wry smile. At the Immortal Sect, even though they always talked about equality between the immortals and mortals, how could the law be perfectly impartial?

Especially when it came to the death penalty.

A while ago in a case, a genius student conducted various dangerous experiments, afraid of being discovered by the school, so she rented a house outside to conduct her experiments. She was careful, but who could have predicted the explosive power when seven Explosive Talismans were superimposed, breaking through the Protective Formation and destroying half a city block.

Her mother was a Golden Core Master, her father was also a Golden Core Master, her teacher was a Golden Core Master... and yes, the Explosive Talisman she researched truly solved a problem that had troubled many for a long time! She really was a genius!

Execute her by firing squad?

And then, there was someone who sped away in a Flying Boat with the police chasing to the death but still escaped. When they finally caught that girl, they found out she was a well-known good girl from the school, a quiet young lady who was also a renowned smithing genius. Please tell me, since a police officer was seriously injured in the process, she should be sentenced to more than ten years by all accounts, but do you really want to ruin this genius?

In the extraordinary world, many battles are decided by geniuses, not the average person.

The Immortal Sect has always been fighting with other Sects, and losing would mean an irreversible catastrophe!

In these elite groups fighting against other Sects, many had various issues when they were young, such as drag racing, Flying Swords, and many other things. According to the law, a lot of them should have been heavily sentenced or received the death penalty.

So, what should be done?

Meng Yu's parents made contributions to the Immortal Sect, and then their descendants were bullied. Later on, there was the incident with the Cinerary Casket. His drawing of the sword and killing was not only in line with everyone's simple sense of justice, but even the Cultivators thought it was a good kill!

How can such a person be killed?

How would you make people accept the execution willingly?

About turning himself in, Meng Yu called the police right after hurting someone at the Cheng Family, confessing that he had killed and was at that location.

"Well, so he will be given a heavy sentence, then sent to a Minor World to fight to the death, and that's it?"

"Right, just like that. Maybe he has the chance to become a Golden Core Master, if he's a genius."

A police officer said so.

So, for such a justifiable young man, whose parents sacrificed for the Immortal Sect, who himself is simple and kind, a common person, if the issue becomes big, shouldn't you also turn a blind eye?

And besides, by forgiving Meng Yu, a larger loophole could be opened for one's own children and descendants, couldn't it?

Meng Yu's hired lawyer was very capable, not publicizing that Meng Yu had mastered Sword Intent.

The higher-ups saw a talent that could be saved, while the masses saw Meng Yu as an ordinary young man.

Nobody wanted Meng Yu to die.

Meng Yu didn't want to die either.

So, will he die?
