Chapter 112: Cut Off with One Blade!

~8 min read 1,453 words

In recent days, Wu Qi has not been idle.

The teacher responsible for guarding the warehouse is a loyal supporter of Xue Qinghe.

Holding Xue Qinghe's Token, Wu Qi easily took away the resource requisition records.

He took the records out of the Soul Guidance Device and spread them flat on the desk to the side.

"You all did not use the academy's cultivation resources, yet Qin Ming has been collecting them for you the entire time."

"There is one more thing I must clarify with you. Has Qin Ming ever given you money, or colluded with you to sell off the academy's resources?"

This matter is very important.

If the Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan team were involved, this evidence would have to be dropped to avoid Dugu Yan being implicated.

Reselling property of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family is undoubtedly a slap in the face to the imperial family and would inevitably be dealt with severely; even if Dugu Yan had Dugu Bo behind her, she would still be held accountable.

Dugu Yan said earnestly: "Teacher Qin has never given us any money. However, whenever we have a need, he can produce the corresponding resources immediately."

"We ourselves do not lack resources, so we haven't paid much attention to this and are not sure if Qin Ming is reselling resources."

Dugu Bo, however, sneered, "No wonder that brat was able to break through to Soul Emperor at thirty."

"Your situation is not an isolated case; there are noble children here, and most of them don't even cultivate. Qin Ming, in the name of a teacher, collected the students' resources on their behalf and took them to cultivate on his own."

However, this matter could be big or small.

If one cannot produce evidence of Qin Ming selling resources, it is likely not enough to topple him.

Although Qin Ming took so many resources, he produced results in terms of strength; even if it were reported to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, it would likely be left unsettled.

Wu Qi has no way to prove that Qin Ming stole and sold cultivation resources, but Qin Ming also has no way to prove that he didn't take away so many resources to funnel them to his alma mater.

Shrek Academy is his alma mater, and he can indeed take the lead in proposing that Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan accept them, but according to the rules, he must recuse himself from the follow-up.

Yet the current situation is that not only did he not recuse himself, he instead took the lead.

Then don't blame Wu Qi for being ruthless.

He never considered himself a gentleman, and he uses both fair and foul means with ease.

What's more, Qin Ming is an enemy.

"This is just an appetizer; the main event requires the old man to handle it personally."

Dugu Bo became interested, "Speak, this old man will never refuse."

Wu Qi took a small Soul Guidance Device out of his pocket.

"Inside this are low-level cultivation resources. Old man, find some people from all walks of life who know how to disguise themselves, have them pose as Qin Ming, and have them deliver the resources to Shrek Academy."

Dugu Bo was stunned.

This is to directly frame someone.

But thinking of Dugu Yan's experiences, he felt no burden in his heart.

Qin Ming took a massive amount of cultivation resources from the academy, only to end up helping Shrek Academy suppress his own students.

Such a person who bites the hand that feeds him is not worth pitying.

Dugu Bo nodded, "Leave it to this old man, I guarantee no one will discover it. However, you must find out the location of Shrek Academy clearly."

The movement trajectory of Shrek Academy is not hard to find; Wu Qi still has the Pope Token in his hand and can fully mobilize the power of the Spirit Hall to help search.

……

In the afternoon.

The Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan team gathered at the training ground.

Before cultivation began, Yu Tianheng sought out Dugu Yan alone.

"Tianheng, is there something you need?"

Yu Tianheng clearly felt that ever since returning from the Spirit Fighting, Dugu Yan's attitude toward him had taken a sharp turn for the worse.

He had intended to give each other some time to cool off, but after witnessing Dugu Yan's strength, he became impatient.

Originally, Dugu Yan's strength was always one level lower than his.

In the Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan team, his strength was the greatest, and Yu Feng and the others followed his lead.

With the explosive growth of Dugu Yan's strength, Yu Feng and the others' attitudes toward him had cooled down quite a bit.

He is the captain of the Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan team, and Yu Tianxin is the captain of the Thunder Academy team; the competition between the two sides is currently on the same level.

If he were to lose his position as captain because of this, he would fall a step behind Yu Tianxin.

Furthermore, according to family rules, if a partner is not a family member, one's own strength must be greater than the partner's.

If his strength cannot break through in a short time, the loss will be far from trivial.

In a serious case, it could even cause him to lose directly in the competition for the position of Young Sect Master!

Dugu Yan's explosive growth in strength must have been due to obtaining some kind of opportunity.

If he could also obtain it, not only could he maintain his relationship with Dugu Yan, but he would also surpass Yu Tianxin in strength.

"Yan Zi, how did your strength improve? If possible, I can purchase Immortal Herbs from you in the name of the family."

During this period, Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng had no contact, and the thing couples fear most is mutual suspicion.

Hearing Dugu Bo speak ill of the latter every day, Yu Tianheng's status in her heart plummeted.

Now, Yu Tianheng's first sentence was not to ask about her condition, but to ask about her cultivation, clearly showing he had his eyes on the Immortal Herb.

With this, Yu Tianheng had jumped right into the pit Dugu Bo dug.

Dugu Yan completely believed that Yu Tianheng only approached her for profit.

"Tianheng, don't you think this statement is ridiculous?"

"Immortal Herbs have always belonged to those with destiny; since you have no destiny, why ask!?"

Yu Tianheng's face sank like water.

He did not know what had happened during this time, why the Dugu Yan who was usually obedient to him had such a huge change in attitude!

After a moment of silence, he could not help but say, "Yan Zi, I know that our relationship has grown distant during this time, and I am willing to make amends."

"But if my strength cannot improve, do you know how much pressure I am under from my family?"

"None of my business!" After saying this, Dugu Yan prepared to leave.

Yu Tianheng hurriedly blocked her path, his expression extremely ugly, and he said angrily, "Yan Zi, are you really being this heartless?"

"The people in Imperial Fighting Team Two have seen their overall strength leap forward during this time, all because Wu Qi had contact with His Excellency Dugu; now that your strength has also improved, it is clear that the treasure is in your hands."

"Given our relationship, do I not deserve a share?"

Yu Tianheng had completely looked in the wrong direction.

If he had not brought this matter up proactively, but instead showed concern for Dugu Yan, she might have actually asked for an Immortal Herb for him.

But now, in Dugu Yan's heart, Yu Tianheng's image had collapsed with a crash!

"You make me feel disgusted."

After this rebuke, Dugu Yan turned and left.

Yu Tianheng still wanted to stop her, but he was pushed away by her powerful soul power aura.

Knowing he could not contend with her, Yu Tianheng cursed loudly, "Dugu Yan, if you dare to leave, we are finished!"

Dugu Yan ignored him, her footsteps not pausing for a moment.

In the distance, Yu Feng and the others watched this scene unfold.

Aosiluo could not help but say, "From now on, Sister Yan Zi is the captain; we must never make her angry."

Yu Feng could not help but feel some sympathy for Yu Tianheng, "Things between Tianheng and Sister Yan Zi are completely over."

When the Three Education Committees asked about Dugu Yan back then, Yu Tianheng should have unconditionally stood on her side, rather than trying to smooth things over and offend neither party.

It is too late for regrets now.
