2179 Appearance of the Elders

“You’re an outer sect disciple. There’s no room for you to speak here. Get lost!”

After Su Zimo said that, Fang Qingyun was expressionless. Before he could reply, Tang Peng could not help but stand out and berate.

“Haha!”

Su Zimo burst into laughter and asked again, “Why? Senior Brother Fang can take advantage of others but nobody is allowed to say anything about it?”

In the academy, even inner sect disciples would not dare to say such words in front of Fang Qingyun!

The cultivators were shocked and their expressions changed!

After Fang Qingyun appeared, he had a calm expression the entire time.

However, at that moment, his expression changed slightly. He narrowed his eyes and shifted his gaze towards Su Zimo.

Su Zimo noticed Fang Qingyun’s gaze and was even more certain.

Fang Qingyun’s words and actions earlier on exuded a domineering aura. As the number one of the inner sect, he was definitely extremely conceited and valued his reputation.

Now that everyone was watching, he had no choice but to compromise even if he wanted to take revenge for Pang Yu as soon as possible.

Otherwise, even if he won, it would be an unfair victory because he took advantage of the situation.

In the inner sect and academy, his reputation would be greatly affected!

Indeed.

Fang Qingyun took a deep breath and said slowly, “Junior Brother Yang, I’ll give you time to recuperate. I’ll wait here. Once you recover, we’ll fight!”

This battle was inevitable.

Yang Ruoxu did not explain further and merely cupped his fists before assuming a lotus position.

Su Zimo had already achieved his goal.

The reason why he stood out and said that was to buy time.

One was time for Yang Ruoxu to recuperate while the other was time for Heaven and Earth Academy to react!

If it was long enough and this matter continued to escalate, it would definitely spread to the inner sect or even legacy disciples, attracting even higher-ranking Disciplinary Elders of the academy to uphold justice.

Fang Qingyun was only the number one of the inner sect—Su Zimo did not believe that Fang Qingyun could do anything he wanted in the academy just because of that!

“What’s your name?”

Just as Su Zimo was pondering, he suddenly felt two sharp gazes shoot over as Fang Qingyun’s voice sounded leisurely.

“Su Zimo,”

Su Zimo said frankly with a calm expression.

“Oh?”

Fang Qingyun raised his brow slightly. “So, it’s you.”

At that moment, Tang Peng and Yan Bingying descended on the Sword Discourse Arena and stood behind Fang Qingyun.

Yan Bingying glared at Su Zimo coldly without concealing the disdain in her eyes. “So, another lowlife. It’s no wonder why he doesn’t know how to behave!”

Right then, a few figures sped over from the direction of the inner sect.

Their leader was an old man. Although the badge on his waist was also an inner sect badge, his aura was powerful and even surpassed Fang Qingyun and the others!

Unexpectedly, the old man in the lead should be a Perfected Immortal.

The outer sect Disciplinary Elders were mostly Grade 1 and 2 Heaven Immortals.

That way, they would have sufficient strength and methods to enforce the law in the outer sect.

Su Zimo thought to himself, “If that’s the case, there’s a high chance that this Perfected Immortal old man is…”

“Inner sect Disciplinary Elder, Elder Jian,”

Right then, Yang Ruoxu opened his eyes and murmured softly when he saw who it was.

Tang Peng and Yan Bingying frowned slightly when they saw Elder Jian.

Fang Qingyun was still expressionless as he looked at Su Zimo deeply.

He had gradually realized that Su Zimo’s provocation earlier on was most likely to buy time for others from the academy to arrive!

“What happened?”

After arriving, Elder Jian surveyed his surroundings and finally looked at everyone on the Sword Discourse Arena, asking in a deep voice.

“Junior Brother Pang was killed by Yang Ruoxu on the Sword Discourse Arena. Elder Jian, tell me, should he pay with his life?!”

Tang Peng stood out first and shouted.

“Mmm?”

Elder Jian glanced at Pang Yu’s corpse and his pupils constricted as he murmured, “The power of time?”

Pang Yu was not an ordinary disciple—he was one of the top five paragons of the inner sect.

Furthermore, his background was rather noble—his family was an extremely famous and powerful faction in Divine Firmament Mainland.

Pang Yu’s death in Heaven and Earth Academy was not a small matter!

“Yang Ruoxu, what do you have to say for yourself?”

Elder Jian questioned in a deep voice.

All these years, for some unknown reason, the upper echelons of the academy thought highly of Yang Ruoxu of the inner sect.

Under normal circumstances, Yang Ruoxu would not be ranked number one in the inner sect according to his background, combat strength, talent and any other aspects.

Although Yang Ruoxu was the only one in the academy who chose to cultivate the extremely difficult Righteousness Sutra, the disadvantage of this cultivation technique was immense and it was not the top cultivation technique in the academy.

It was difficult to justify their high regards of him if it was just because of that single fact.

Elder Jian only knew one thing. When one cultivated the Righteousness Sutra, they cultivated passion and righteousness. Everything they did had to be done with a clear conscience.

Otherwise, the power of this cultivation technique would be greatly reduced and one would enter Qi Deviation.

Although there were many disciples in the academy, no one would choose this cultivation technique.

Who could guarantee that they would have a clear conscience throughout their lives?

Who could guarantee that they had never killed an innocent person in their entire life of cultivation without any selfishness?

Therefore, when Tang Peng said that, Elder Jian knew that there was definitely more to it.

Yang Ruoxu said in a deep voice, “This matter began with an outer sect steward who pocketed the Essence Spirit Stones of an outer sect disciple…”

“When Elder Teng sparred with Junior Brother Su on the Sword Discourse Arena, Elder Teng was no match for him. Coupled with Senior Brother Pang’s instigation, he used an Essence Spirit secret skill…”

Most of the people present knew the entire story.

This was the first time that Fang Qingyun, Tang Peng, Yan Bingying and the others knew the actual details.

Tang Peng and Yan Bingying looked terrible.

If it was as Yang Ruoxu had said, be it Elder Teng or Pang Yu, they were in the wrong as they had violated the academy’s rules by releasing killing moves first on the Sword Discourse Arena.

Under such circumstances, Yang Ruoxu and Su Zimo’s actions were merely in defense.

In other words, according to the academy’s rules, Elder Teng and Pang Yu deserved to die!

Tang Peng harrumphed coldly and said, “You’ll naturally choose to say things that are beneficial to you. How can we trust your words?!”

Actually, even Tang Peng himself did not have much confidence when he said those words.

Everyone knew that Yang Ruoxu cultivated the Righteousness Sutra. If he were to spout nonsense, it would definitely result in huge problems for his cultivation.

Yang Ruoxu said in a deep voice, “I can make a Dao oath swearing that if I had exaggerated or lied, I’ll definitely be punished by the heavens!”

Tang Peng pouted and did not say anything more.

Right from the beginning, Fang Qingyun did not express anything.

He knew in his heart that with the arrival of the inner sect Disciplinary Elders, his words no longer carried much weight.

If he wanted to turn the situation around, he would have to rely on someone more powerful!

Elder Jian looked around and already understood the situation.

If Yang Ruoxu was lying about something that happened in front of everyone, someone would have stood out to refute him.

The scene before him proved that Yang Ruoxu was not wrong.

Elder Jian coughed gently. Just as he was about to announce the decision on how to deal with this matter, a voice sounded above everyone’s heads.

“Why is it so lively in the outer sect?”
