Chapter 168: Chapter 126: It Wasn’t Me

Zhao Shanhe snorted and said, "Anyway, my mission is completed. I remind you all once again, Fang Che is still a major suspect! Therefore, any major events at Baiyun Martial Academy, you must not allow him to participate."

"Any beneficial or honorable matters, Fang Che must not be involved!"

Zhao Shanhe’s tone was stern and indisputable.

"What does this mean?" Gao Qingyu frowned, his expression changing.

"In other words, for instance, in competitions between major martial academies, promotions, treasure hunts, or any rewards involving Heavenly Treasures, he should not be involved either."

Zhao Shanhe listed several examples.

Finally, he said, "I’m warning you, you must act according to orders! This isn’t my intention, I’m just a messenger! You understand the implications."

Furious, Meng Chizheng said, "So that family that reported him is so powerful? They harmed our good student and now they even want to block his future? That’s too much!"

The others strongly agreed with Meng Chizheng’s words.

Yes, that’s exactly the case!

Not allowing Fang Che to participate in each of these events is effectively blocking his future!

Lv Jiao Mountain said, "That reporting family is so powerful, we can’t afford to provoke them, but can Lord Zhao enlighten us on how we should treat this family in the future, so as to avoid offending them."

Zhao Shanhe coldly said, "You just need to follow orders; which family it is isn’t something you should worry about, your level is not high enough for that!"

Gao Qingyu coldly replied, "Our level may not be that high, but how our martial academy treats its students shouldn’t be something others dictate!"

Zhao Shanhe replied indifferently, "I’m just the messenger, but if any problems arise with Fang Che in the future, you won’t be able to escape blame! You should think it through!"

"No need to worry, Lord Zhao."

Gao Qingyu similarly replied indifferently, "Our Baiyun Martial Academy has been very busy lately, so we won’t keep you for dinner, Lord Zhao."

He actually issued an eviction order directly to his superior.

Evidently, the old rascal was furious!

Zhao Shanhe snorted and said, "Anyway, I’ve said what I needed to say, whether you listen or not is up to you. If anything happens in the future, it won’t come to me. Do you think I care about a meal at your Baiyun Martial Academy?"

"Haha, Lord Zhao is cautious, not even a leaf could fall on you! Trying to reach you with a problem would be quite difficult too."

Gao Qingyu coolly responded, "Lord Zhao doesn’t care about this meal, so we’re happy to save it, please go."

Zhao Shanhe gave him a cold look, then shouted, "You are no longer welcome, why are you lingering? Waiting to eat?"

Suddenly, eight figures appeared from several directions; they were Zhao Shanhe’s personal guards.

"Let’s go!"

At Zhao Shanhe’s command, the nine of them soared into the sky.

"Truly cautious, coming on a mission to Baiyun Martial Academy and bringing so many experts with him, is he afraid we’ll just kill him!"

Gao Qingyu muttered.

With a glare from Meng Hejun, "He hasn’t gone far yet."

"I want him to hear! What a person! I used to think he was alright, but seeing him today, what authority he wields, such arrogance! Bah!"

Gao Qingyu leaned over, put his fingers on Fang Che’s wrist vein, and shook his head, "This child... this child... whether he can recover will truly depend on fate... it’s too severe."

"He hasn’t even reached General Level, and yet he went into Wenxin Road, how could it be easy for him."

Meng Hejun sighed.

Meng Chizheng approached and said with a sneer, "Did you understand what Lord Zhao meant before leaving? Although he didn’t explicitly say how to handle Fang Che’s Divine Soul injury, he implied that no additional help should be given... haha."

"Baiyun Martial Academy still listens to him!?"

Gao Qingyu was furious, "Quick, get some treasures to see if they can be used."

"Even if they’re useful, he may still be unconscious for several days at the very least."

Li Changkong looked despondent.

His gaze on Fang Che was filled with remorse.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "My student, I didn’t protect him."

"Stop blaming yourself! You talk as if you’re some big leader!"

Gao Qingyu was filled with anger, "I’m the Mountain Master, and I couldn’t protect my student either!"

"I’ll take Fang Che to get some rest."

"Don’t let him return to his courtyard for now; have someone notify them that Fang Che will stay at the academy to recover for the time being."

"Alright."

Li Changkong carried Fang Che out.

Facing them.

Immediately, Mo Gan Yun and others stood up.

"Instructor Li, how is Boss Fang?"

"His Divine Soul is damaged and he needs to be unconscious for a few days." Li Changkong’s eyes scanned the group.

"Is it serious?" Mo Gan Yun was anxious.

"It’s manageable. Whether he can recover depends on luck."

Li Changkong replied.

Meng Chizheng followed out, chuckling, "I heard it was a Shi family’s son who reported him... tsk tsk, although Fang Che is young, he sure has a lot of enemies. Ever since he entered the academy, strange things keep happening. First, a Shi family’s son hired assassins, and now one reports him... tsk tsk... quite impressive. Quite the connections."

Meng Chizheng walked away with a cold face.

He was clearly speaking to Mo Gan Yun and the others.

Mo Gan Yun and the others were suddenly shocked.

They exchanged glances.

One by one, they ground their teeth.

But they didn’t speak, they all followed Li Changkong, heading towards his quarters.

Halfway there, they encountered Old Man Shen: "Leave him with me! I don’t trust you all."

Old Man Shen’s expression was firm.

"Old Man Shen, you... uh, we need someone to catalyze the medicinal power."

"You can come every day to do that. Schedule yourselves; don’t wait for me to chase you."

Old Man Shen rolled his eyes and sarcastically said, "My cultivation is destroyed, but my Divine Soul isn’t. I need to watch over him so you heartless bunch don’t take the chance to harm him. None of you are good people!"

The old man spat on the ground, cursing, "All idiots!"

Everyone was speechless.

Gao Qingyu coughed and said, "Let’s leave him with Old Man Shen then."

"Alright."

Li Changkong had no choice but to change course.

Old Man Shen cursed all the way, "Damn morons! A bunch of idiots! From the Mountain Master to everyone else, all idiots! Zhao Shanhe is the biggest idiot! Damn idiot!"

Everyone listened with dark expressions to Old Man Shen’s endless stream of foul language.

The old man cursed nonstop all the way.

Halfway through, Meng Hejun, Gao Qingyu, and several deputy mountain masters couldn’t stand it and left.

Only Li Changkong remained, escorting Mo Gan Yun and the others.

Fortunately, halfway there, Bing Shangxue and others arrived, causing Old Man Shen to restrain himself a bit, though he was still mumbling, no one could make out what he was saying.

But one thing was clear: he definitely wasn’t praising anyone.

Mo Gan Yun and the others followed behind, with Xie Gongping trailing distantly.

Mo Gan Yun was already looking at Yu Zhongge, Qiu Yunshang, and Jing Shuanggao with eyes like knives; he didn’t glance at Ding Jie Ran.

In his heart, Mo Gan Yun couldn’t believe it was Ding Jie Ran who did it: this introvert might not even speak up if he was framed, let alone set up someone else!

Moreover, Mo Gan Yun wasn’t stupid.

Since the formation of the small group, he had his own calculations.

Using a report to remove Fang Che wouldn’t benefit Ding Jie Ran or Xie Gongping; the ones it would benefit are himself, Yu Zhongge, Jing Shuanggao, and Qiu Yunshang.

Because it’s an opportunity to become the leader.

So his suspicious gaze swept over the three of them.

Meanwhile, Yu Zhongge, Qiu Yunshang, and Jing Shuanggao also exchanged suspicious glances.

"What are you looking at?"

The four of them almost said simultaneously.

"What are you gonna do about it!?"

They almost replied simultaneously.

Then...

They continued to exchange suspicious glances.

"It wasn’t me!" Yu Zhongge huffed.

"Not me either." Qiu Yunshang.

"Certainly wasn’t me." Jing Shuanggao.

Ding Jie Ran remained silent, looking at them with sharp eyes, his hand on the sword hilt, exuding an aura of don’t come near me.

"Forget it, you don’t have to swear."

They all waved their hands simultaneously.

Finally, Xie Gongping, whom they didn’t even look at.

Soon they arrived at Old Man Shen’s place and laid Fang Che down.

Seeing Fang Che’s deathly pale, deeply unconscious state, resembling a corpse, Bing Shangxue’s tears instantly streamed down.

In this period of time, the person who cared most about Fang Che was Bing Shangxue.

Initially, Bing Shangxue approached Fang Che with the intention of ’correcting mistakes and guiding him onto the right path’, but as she got to know him more, she genuinely liked this kid.

He was diligent, polite, knew his place, sometimes impulsive, but whatever he did, he could take responsibility.

He was never arrogant or conceited.

He would speak properly if someone talked to him, seriously answered questions if asked, and kept to himself when alone.

Never took the initiative, but never refused.

He never looked down on ordinary classmates and never flattered those from prominent families.

He practiced diligently and with determination.

He progressed by leaps and bounds.

Thinking of the notorious things burdening Fang Che, Bing Shangxue felt deeply pained.

She watched a genius seed rise like a comet, gradually shining his own light.

But at this very moment, he was struck by such misfortune.

Lying here, helpless and desolate.

His Divine Soul in chaos, unconscious.

Waiting for him was an unpredictable fate.

Whether he could recover depended entirely on luck and fate.

How could anyone not feel heartache?

"May you wake up soon, recover your genius form, and soar straight to the nine days."
