C37 Arrogant
Even the imprisoned Murong Qianer was alarmed. Although there were some battles in the Blue Phoenix Academy, those who dared to not directly kill people in a arranged battle were few in number, and their fates were not too optimistic.
Some abolished their cultivation, some sentenced them to life imprisonment, and even directly executed them!
Murong Qianer could not help but worry.
"What a reckless ghost!"
Murong Qianer was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but she was locked up for three months.
Thump thump thump!
At this moment, there were some footsteps and anxiety outside.
"Sister Qian'Er, Xiao Chen was taken away by the Third Elder."
Ji Xue said anxiously from outside the door.
"I understand. Xue'er, go take a look. If you have something to do, quickly come and notify me. I'll think of something."
"Yes."
...
Blue Phoenix Academy, Hall of Elders
There were a total of six elders in Blue Phoenix Academy. Now that there were three of them, there was even Vice Principal Zhan Yu. The four of them looked at Xiao Chen with a grave expression, especially the Third Elder.
He was in charge of criminal law in the Blue Phoenix Academy!
"Xiao Chen, do you know your crime?" The Third Elder sat on the wooden chair and coldly glanced at Xiao Chen. His voice was stern and meticulous; he did not show any signs of anger.
The other elders and Zhan Yu looked at Xiao Chen, but did not say anything.
"Not only am I innocent, I have rendered meritorious deeds."
Xiao Chen's gaze was neither humble nor arrogant when facing the Third Elder's gaze.
"How dare you!"
The Third Elder slammed the table and stood up, pointing directly at Xiao Chen. His expression was filled with anger and his expression turned grave. He hated those stubborn and unrepentant disciples.
So what if your talent is outstanding? You are not qualified to be arrogant in front of an elder.
"You killed someone in public and you even have achievements?!"
"My Blue Phoenix Academy will definitely not tolerate a stubborn person like you messing around. Otherwise, won't you become a mess in the future and allow all of you to do as you please? Today, I shall cripple you to serve as an example to others! "
Xiao Chen's gaze turned cold.
Third Elder, could it be that you want to turn Situ Wu into your trump card? That's right, I was the one who killed him, but why aren't you asking me why I killed him? If I had no enmity with him in the past and no grudge in the present, would I kill people as I please?! "
Xiao Chen's every word was precious; so what if he was an elder? So what if he was in charge of the punishment? Do you want to submit to me, Xiao Chen? Impossible!
Aside from the Third Elder, the expressions of the other two Elders and Zhan Yu also changed slightly. However, they did not have much confidence in Xiao Chen killing them in public.
"No matter what, I should take responsibility for killing someone."
The Third Elder took a deep breath and said slowly: "This is a rule set by the Blue Phoenix Academy; it cannot be changed by anyone, much less by just you."
Xiao Chen laughed out loud as his gaze swept over the four people seated.
"Third Elder, can I understand that you are intentionally protecting Situ Wu?" Xiao Chen's gaze was fixed on the Third Elder. His voice slowly traveled out and he was immediately astonished.
"Hua!"
The disciples outside all stared with their eyes wide open.
Xiao Chen actually questioned the Third Elder?!
It had to be known that the Third Elder had never shown favoritism since he took charge of the Blue Phoenix Academy's criminal law. Even his own disciples were impartial and enforce the law impartially. Yet, Xiao Chen actually dared to question the Third Elder openly?
This madman, how dare he be so bold!
The Third Elder's expression turned ugly.
"Xiao Chen, are you questioning me?"
Xiao Chen declined to comment, "That's right. Otherwise, why did you not ask me why I killed Situ Wu and insisted on punishing me?"
As he spoke, Xiao Chen's voice gradually became calm and unhurried. There was no fear in his eyes because he spoke openly.
"If Situ Wu wants to kill me, then why can't I kill him?" "Previously, he had sent people to kill me during the hunt. The elder had already ordered me not to harm my fellow sect members, but he still acted in vain, repeatedly trying to kill me. This was the reason why I was heavily injured and left early, and this was the reason why Murong Qianer was able to bear witness to my actions.
As Xiao Chen spoke, even the Third Elder's expression eased up slightly. If what Xiao Chen said was true, it was not entirely Xiao Chen's fault.
Xiao Chen said: "If we were to comply with Blue Phoenix Academy's criminal law, Situ Wu deserves to die. "I will take action on behalf of the elders, clean the house, enforce the law. Third Elder, you, on the other hand, are still as certain as ever. Give me the hat of someone committing murder and committing murder."
As he spoke, Xiao Chen felt some anger.
"I refuse to accept this. If you must punish me, I would rather withdraw from Blue Phoenix Academy."
"You want to leave the Blue Phoenix Academy?"
"What is it? Even though I am in the Blue Phoenix Academy, I did not use the Blue Phoenix Academy's technique, nor did I take out any item from the Blue Phoenix, so why can't I retreat? "
"What is the point of me, Xiao Chen, staying in this kind of academy?!"
Xiao Chen's words caused the few elders to fall silent.
Right at this moment, Zhan Yu, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke out.
"Xiao Chen, although there is a reason for this, you still killed people. The academy cannot be biased against us. Thus, I am letting you stay in confinement for three months. Are you willing?" Zhan Yu looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
Seeing Zhan Yu's gaze, Xiao Chen nodded.
Zhan Yu was trying to find a way out for both sides. Otherwise, both sides would not have much face. If Xiao Chen was forced to quit school, it would definitely affect the reputation of the Blue Phoenix Academy.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen knew that if this continued, he would definitely not end up well. Why not follow the steps Zhan Yu gave him and go down? This way, he would not only be able to affect the Third Elder's dignity, but would also be able to endure it.
It was perfect!
"In that case, you may leave."
Xiao Chen did not say anything as he turned around and left. After Xiao Chen left, the disciples outside were discussing him.
"Xiao Chen is fine just like that?!"
"That's right. I could clearly sense that the Headmaster seemed to want to protect Xiao Chen. What is going on?" Could it be that Xiao Chen is the Headmaster's disciple? "
"I think it is possible. Otherwise, how could Xiao Chen be so arrogant and go back on the Third Elder?"
"It's good to have a backer …"
Xiao Chen ignored the words of the crowd and left immediately. He had been confined for three months, and it just so happened that he wanted to try the Heaven Splitting Saber. It was exactly what he wanted it to be, haha.
Inside the elders' hall, the third elder looked at Zhan Yu and wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say it out loud.
Why are you taking care of Xiao Chen?
Zhan Yu smiled and said to the crowd, "Xiao Chen possesses the Phoenix bloodline."
With that sentence, everyone was shocked.
After a long while, the Third Elder did not say anything and sat down.
"No wonder …"
...
When Xiao Chen returned to his residence, he immediately locked up the courtyard door and began his confinement.
Looking at the sword that was stuck in the yard, Xiao Chen revealed an eager expression as he slowly walked over. Now that he had improved greatly, it should not be a problem for him to use this sword, right?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Xiao Chen suddenly opened the sky. In that instant, he felt the ground under his feet begin to sink.
"Good sword!" Xiao Chen wanted to dance, but he could only lift it; he could not wave it around. However, Xiao Chen could feel that this was destined to be extraordinary.
"I know you're not ordinary. Are you willing to accompany me, Ling Tian?"
Xiao Chen spoke softly, and Kai Tian seemed to be able to understand his words. He actually emitted a faint sword hum, as though he was responding to him.
Xiao Chen laughed out loud.
"The first move of the Heavenly Sword Canon …"
One man, one sword, dancing clumsily, entertaining himself …
