Chapter 157: Chapter 115: That’s My Big Brother [Added for Alliance Hierarch Yicheng Shiji]
"Fifth Brother, what’s wrong with you?"
Xie Gongping was very puzzled.
Ding Jie Ran said with disgust, "Get lost!"
A single "get lost" wasn’t enough; he raised his hand and slapped Xie Gongping away.
With a crisp slap, Xie Gongping was utterly stunned.
This was the first time in Ding Jie Ran’s life that he had slapped someone.
Then, surprisingly, he said a few more words.
"You think you can call me Fifth Brother!"
Then he walked straight past and entered the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room.
"Damn it!..."
Xie Gongping covered his face and was completely dumbfounded.
What’s going on today? How has the world changed?
People like Yu Zhongge, I can understand them; he was never one of us in the first place. But you, Ding Jie Ran, are you sick too? Do you think you’re from a big family?
Besides, during this period when Huo Churan was just expelled, we all got along fine, didn’t we? What’s the matter?
Is it just because I called Fang Che once?
Does Fang Che really have such high prestige?
...
In the distance.
Jun Hefang sat under a tree, looking at Xie Gongping, who was now just a small dot. He chuckled coldly, "This kid is done for."
Hua Kaixie sighed and said, "This Xie Gongping is indeed finished."
Even from a distance, since they were all experts and Xie Gongping and the others weren’t using voice transmission, they heard everything clearly.
Behind them, Wu Zhibing, standing like a javelin, looked at Xie Gongping with a complex expression in his eyes and said slowly, "He reminds me of Dongyun Yu."
Jun Hefang and Hua Kaixie fell silent for a moment.
They said nothing.
Back in the day, Dongyun Yu also used to hang out with them.
Just like Fang Che and that group of people.
But as various things happened and the number of people continued to decrease, the team of a dozen became just three.
The others were all excluded.
"Countless people in the world, which man is truly a hero!"
Hua Kaixie sighed softly, "Just like sifting sand in the waves, this is how it is. We’ve seen their cultivation and battles during this time. This Xie guy couldn’t keep up from the start, being in a position where everyone can easily defeat him. If he were truly honest and loyal, he could still have stayed in the group. In the future, he might have had fame with these people and could have achieved success. His family would also have benefited and risen high."
"Unfortunately, he was ruined by his own cleverness."
Hua Kaixie was filled with regret.
"You’re wrong in saying that."
Wu Zhibing’s icy face showed contemplation, and he said slowly, "Even if this time he didn’t act this way, he wouldn’t last long because his little smartness, pride stemming from inferiority, and years of feeling left behind would eventually explode."
"No matter what, he would show his true nature!"
"So what you say about him achieving great success by just following, that’s not right. Because he wouldn’t be able to follow until the end! No matter what, he couldn’t do it!"
"The boss is right!"
Jun Hefang laughed, "Yes, he couldn’t do it! Dongyun Yu couldn’t either!"
Hua Kaixie said, "But, how to say, this Xie Gongping, he is definitely not a bad person."
"Of course."
Wu Zhibing said, "He just has a bit of cleverness and some little thoughts, not a bad person, but... good people aren’t necessarily all united. In their group, value is what matters now."
"Only after confirming each other’s value, can they slowly develop affection. Their team is far from being truly formed!"
"Among the seven of them now, one has already left. If Fang Che comes back, there will be six. And by graduation season, having three or four remain... would be quite good already."
Wu Zhibing smiled faintly, "Let’s go. I’ll check on your progress these past few days."
"Okay!"
The three walked away together.
...
Fang Che followed and arrived in a small meeting room.
As soon as he entered, even Li Changkong was startled.
A row of chairs opposite was already occupied by people.
The person in the middle had three strands of long beard, a stern face, and an aura of authority that came naturally from his long-standing high position and power.
To his left was Meng Hejun, to his right was Gao Qingyu, next to Gao Qingyu was Huang Yifan.
There was an empty position next to Meng Hejun, clearly reserved for Xiang Xinghe.
Then there were two Deputy Mountain Masters on each side, followed by Lv Jiao Mountain, and Meng Chizheng.
A total of nine people sat above.
Opposite them, there was only a single chair.
Clearly prepared for Fang Che.
Li Changkong suddenly felt his scalp tingle.
What is the Martial Arts Academy planning to do?
And seeing this situation, Fang Che’s heart sunk.
It was too grand!
Too solemn!
What is the Guardian trying to do with this kind of setup? Are they going to expose me now?
This... this damn it, isn’t it going to ruin all my plans?
Moreover, if I’m exposed, it’s basically certain death!
He couldn’t help but take a deep breath, and his mind went through seventeen or eighteen thoughts in an instant.
Gao Qingyu saw Li Changkong had arrived and said, "Instructor Li, you’re Fang Che’s instructor. Since you’re here, you might as well move a chair and come over to watch and listen; you understand what today is about."
Li Changkong took a deep breath and said, "I understand, I won’t say anything reckless."
Xiang Xinghe waved his hand, and those responsible for escorting Fang Che quietly left.
They closed the door.
Xiang Xinghe quickly walked to his seat and sat down.
Li Changkong sighed, moved a chair himself, and sat in the corner behind Fang Che.
He didn’t want to sit directly opposite Fang Che, causing him more pressure.
But his heart was already filled with pessimism.
Such an array, it was truly too massive!
Could it be that a genius was really going to fall here?
He’s only seventeen and a half, and within a few months, he rose from a Martial Disciple to an Innate Great Grandmaster, and he did it without forcing it with Elixir Pills.
This is a talent who could definitely ascend to the Cloud Weapon List in the future!
Li Changkong felt indescribably uncomfortable inside.
But he also knew that in this situation, his words didn’t count.
Not even if Mountain Master Gao Qingyu spoke, it wouldn’t count!
Everything depended on the person sitting in the middle.
And that person was the Master of the entire Southeast region’s Guardians!
The Boss of the entire Southeast region’s Guardians.
Also an expert who shook the world.
The first person in the Southeast, Zhao Shanhe!
"Fang Che? Sit down."
Zhao Shanhe said blandly, "Sit there."
Fang Che acted with apparent fear, looking left and right, barely touching the chair with his bottom, awkwardly sitting down. His eyes were on Gao Qingyu in the middle, his voice a bit trembling, "Mountain Master, I... this is...?"
Gao Qingyu said with a mild tone, "There are just a few questions for you to answer truthfully."
"Okay."
Meng Chizheng on one side said sternly, "When speaking, think carefully, it concerns your future, don’t tell even half a lie!"
"Yes, I understand, student understands."
Lv Jiao Mountain, sitting at the farthest side, sighed.
He suddenly remembered when Fang Che first enrolled, Huang Yifan seemed to have pulled something like this once too.
Could it be there’s really something wrong with this Fang Che?
As things currently stand, he is the top talent among Baiyun Martial Academy freshmen.
Zhao Shanhe saw everyone had settled and nodded slightly to Xiang Xinghe.
The message was clear, begin.
...
Xiang Xinghe coughed and said, "Fang Che, the reason we called you over today is mainly for a few things to verify, and also because someone has filed a real-name report against you, and the person reporting holds a high status, unlikely to be false. We can’t take this lightly, and I hope you understand the seriousness of this."
"I understand, student understands."
"And also... don’t have any wishful thinking."
"I understand, student understands."
"Before we start asking, I must remind you, everyone present can be considered Cloud City experts. Your blood flow speed, heart rate, eye changes, facial expressions, divine sense fluctuations, every movement that reveals your mood; we’ll all know clearly if you’re lying!"
Xiang Xinghe said calmly, "I hope you don’t deceive yourself."
Fang Che nodded, "I understand."
Xiang Xinghe took out a stack of papers, flipping through them, his face expressionless like a block of ice on a coffin lid.
A tense atmosphere gradually spread as he endlessly flipped through the papers in his hand.
He looked at each page, actions calm and slow, his eyes flickering continuously, seemingly reading the contents.
Slowly, he said, "What’s recorded here, are all your matters. Quite detailed, as you can see, it’s quite thick. This means, many things are recorded."
Fang Che nodded, "Yes."
Xiang Xinghe finally flipped to the last page, taking it out separately, placing it on top, and glanced at it.
Then he said, "Now, the first question, what exactly is your relationship with Su Yue of the Su Family?"
"My Big Brother Su?"
Fang Che’s eyes lit up and he said, "He is my good big brother, also my best and dearest friend. We’re sworn brothers, having a pact of brotherhood. We grew up together, and he has always taken care of me whenever I was down, comforting me when I was unhappy, always thinking of me first when there’s something good to eat or play with inviting me along..."
Fang Che spoke eloquently, his face showing an expression filled with warm friendship and reminiscence.
"Big Brother Su treats me like heaven and earth, truly... remarkably well..."
Xiang Xinghe finally couldn’t help but roll his eyes and said, "According to records, there were a few years in Bibo City where Su Yue was very close to you."
"Yes."
"But the reason he was close to you was with ulterior motives, intending to frame you! To frame the Fang Family."
"That’s impossible!"
Fang Che exclaimed, "Big Brother Su is not that kind of person!"
Xiang Xinghe narrowed his eyes, "According to the investigation, Su Yue approached you to mislead you, to affect the Fang Family, and also wanted to get a share of a Treasure Map from your grandfather through you!"
