Chapter 1954: Worse News
best lawyer in Jiangbei City. She'll sue you until you're penniless and end up in jail for life!"His office door was made of steel, designed to be burglar-proof, but had just been kicked open by Ye B..."Uncle, something big has happened!"
He had just ended his phone call when Feng Tianxiang rushed in from outside.
"What's the matter Why are you so flustered Can anything be that important"
Feng Xing was seething with anger. If it weren't for this bastard son causing all this trouble, he wouldn't be in such a predicament now.
"Uncle, I just received news that the young master Ye is actually still alive!"
"What That's impossible!"
Hearing this news, Feng Xingkong was also shocked. "What about Shi Wance He is a master of the middle stage of integration. He wouldn't even be able to kill a Ye Bufan, would he"
Feng Tianxiang said: "The specific situation is unclear. Shi Wance didn't see anyone, and even those from the academy have quietly left."
"Damn it!"
Feng Xingkong couldn't help but curse, originally thinking that Shi Wanche killing Ye Bufan was a sure thing, but he didn't expect such an accident.
Feng Tianxiang said again, "Uncle, there's even worse news."
"What's wrong now What could be worse"
Feng Xingkong's mood had reached its worst.
"That's right, Ye Bufan has joined the Lingxiao Academy and even became its dean."
Feng Tianxiang said worriedly, “Moreover, I just heard that after Nalan Yu Jia and Lu Xue Man left, they also went to Lingxiao Academy. They probably went there to join that boy.”
Given their relationship, they would inevitably join that side.
"Damn it, you're the one who did this!"
Hearing this news, Feng Xingkong could no longer control the anger in his heart. He slapped Feng Tianxiang across the face with a resounding slap.
As an old fox, he naturally understood the gravity of the situation.
Although Lingxiao Academy has fallen from grace, it will surely see a surge in strength once Ye Bufan and his companions join.
What's worse, the other party is eligible to participate in the rookie ranking match.
If nothing goes wrong, Ye Bufan and his group will inevitably participate in the quota selection competition a few days later, which is likely to be a big trouble then.
"Uncle, what if they all come over to compete for the spots in the newcomer ranking tournament We need to come up with a plan."
Feng Tianxiang was visibly anxious, realizing now that he was no match for Ye Bufan at all. If they faced each other on the platform, he would surely be the one who got beaten mercilessly.
Feng Xingkong stood with his hands behind his back, his face grim as he paced back and forth in the room.
At this moment, a wave of regret washed over him. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have provoked that young man in the first place. Now, everything was beyond repair.
Ye Bufan was already the undisputed number one on the Tianbang list before. Now, he has also taken away Lu Xue'man and Hu Yaoya. With this gain and loss, in terms of top combat power, they are already far inferior to Lingxiao Academy.
He had just given a strict order, demanding results in the newcomer's ranking matches.
Judging by the current situation, it's unlikely that their academy's students will even be able to qualify for the ranked matches.
If I were to lose to someone else, it wouldn't be so bad. But if I were to actually lose to Lingxiao Academy, I wouldn't even need anyone to say anything; I would just find a piece of tofu and smash myself with it.
Feng Tianxiang said despondently again, "Uncle, what are we going to do"
He is now completely out of ideas and can only rely on his uncle.
"Well, then there's nothing we can do about it."
Feng Xingkong gritted his teeth, as if he had made an extremely important decision. "Contact the Beiqiong Sword Sect immediately and tell them I accept their terms."
Feng Tianxiang was stunned: "What do you mean, uncle"
The North Firmament Sword Sect contacted me long ago, hoping that their younger generation's core disciples could participate in the newcomer ranking tournament through our academy.
Their younger generation is very strong. I was afraid of taking up spots for you and our academy before, so I didn't agree. Now, it doesn't matter that much anymore.
Even if the spots are taken by disciples of Beiyung Sword Sect, it's still better than having them snatched away by Ye Bufan and his group, as we are representing Tianfeng Imperial Branch after all!
"My uncle is right!" Feng Tianxiang revealed a sinister look. "But we should add one more condition, let the North Qiong Sword Sect people on the platform, get rid of that Ye."
Even if he wasn't killed, he would become a cripple right there on the spot!
In the Qiyuan Division, Dean Fa Zheng sat on the Taishi chair. Di Rong respectfully stood before him.
Beside him stood a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, Bai Zhiwen, the head administrator of the academy.
"Dean, here's what happened. Vice Dean Shi was killed by that kid named Ye. You have to avenge Vice Dean!"
In the end, Di Rong was filled with grief and anger, tears streaming down his face as he mourned deeply for Shi Wanche's death.
He wished the dean would just order someone to go and dismember Ye Bufan into a thousand pieces, avenging himself.
The result was quite different from what he had expected. Fa Zheng sat there, his expression calm and composed throughout, not even making a single statement.
After Di Rong finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Bai Zhiwen next to him, "Has there been any news from Tianfeng City"
"Dean, I just received some news."
"Well, what's up with that kid named Ye"
"That's the thing, after Ye Bufan was expelled from Cangfeng Academy, that old geezer Li Dao ran actually took him back to Lingxiao Academy and even gave him the position of academy head."
"Is that so" Fazheng frowned, then looked at Di Rong, "You say Ye Bufan killed Dean Shi, but is there any other evidence"
Di Rong said, "This didn't happen. I was the only one there at the time!"
Fa Zheng said calmly, “Then tell me, if I were to say that a cultivator at only the Nascent Soul stage had killed History Dean, who was in the middle of the Core Formation stage, but you returned unharmed "
"If you were in my shoes, would you believe it"
Di Rong was stunned for a moment, then cried out: "Dean, you must believe me, I haven't lied even half a word!"
"At that time, Ye Bufan was seriously injured. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape…"
Fa Zheng shook his head: "Do you think anyone would listen to my explanation for this Even if someone did, how would we explain Ye Bufan killing the vice-dean"
Tell me, how can a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage kill a powerhouse at the Core Formation stage
Di Rong couldn't explain it clearly, it was a mystery to him as well. All he could do at this moment was desperately pat his chest repeatedly, assuring them with all his might.
"Dean, you have to believe me! Everything I said is the truth, not a single word is a lie!"
"Okay, I didn't say I don't believe you. After all, you're a member of our Heavenly Ranking, there's no need to lie."
But now the question is, how do I get others to believe these
Fa Zheng stood up and paced back and forth in the room. Turning around, he said, "If it were before, we would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one get away. We could have directly killed that fellow surnamed Ye."
But now things are different, they're already sitting in the position of the Lingxiao Academy's Headmaster, how could we possibly kill them just because we want to
"Dean..."
Di Rong originally thought that the dean would be furious upon receiving the news and immediately dispatch someone to kill Ye Bufan, avenging himself.
But I never expected the outcome to be like this, naturally, my heart is full of discontent.
Before he could finish his words, Fa Zheng raised his hand to interrupt him.
"You go down first, I will send someone to continue the investigation. If we get solid evidence, I will personally go to Ye Bufan for an explanation!"
Di Rong naturally heard that this was Fa Zheng's excuse. If there was no evidence to be found, then the matter would have to end here.
But he was powerless, for though he held a high position at the Gyeonggi Academy, he still couldn't control the headmaster's decisions.
He could only offer a bowed head filled with disappointment before retreating.
After he left, Bai Zhiwen whispered to the dean, "Dean, are we just going to let this go"epped forward.He could immediately tell that Xie Changsi was no ordinary cultivator, possessing the strength of a Martial Saint. Moreover, his mastery over lightning power was the bane of dark magic....
