Chapter 19: Student Token

"I am not a good person."

Lu Fang walked toward Xiao Jinchen with a dark face.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The small Yingyue sword "violently" darted back and forth in front of Xiao Jinchen, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground. Several times it almost grazed his skin, causing wounds to appear on his body and face.

"Do, not, kill, him."

Chen Ji, who was still frozen, opened his mouth to advise, because he sensed the killing intent surging from Lu Fang.

Xiao Jinchen was a descendant of the Three Dukes and the grandson of the former Prime Minister. If Lu Fang killed Xiao Jinchen, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I don't want to cause trouble, but someone wants to kill me! Then they should be prepared to be killed by me."

Lu Fang pointed with a face like frost.

Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, the small Yingyue sword stabbed into Xiao Jinchen's arm, bringing out "blood flowers" as it drilled out from the other side of his arm.

"Ah~"

Xiao Jinchen screamed, covering his gushing arm, staring at Lu Fang with extremely resentful eyes: "You are dead! I will definitely kill you, I will also kill your whole family, you lowly commoner! Ah~"

Pfft!

Almost at the same time, the small Yingyue sword stabbed blood holes into Xiao Jinchen's shoulders and legs.

"My grandfather is the former Prime Minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you cannot kill me."

After Xiao Jinchen met Lu Fang's murderous eyes, he felt afraid in his heart; this person really had the determination to kill him.

"Fifth Uncle! Someone wants to kill me!"

Xiao Jinchen shouted with all his might, the arrogance on his face completely turning into fear.

Swoosh! A cold light flashed.

Xiao Jinchen's head was severed by the small Yingyue sword. The neck with the neat cut was like a water faucet, shooting up a pillar of blood.

Warm blood splashed onto the nearby scholars, and Lu Fang, who was standing closest, was covered in blood on his face.

Pitter-patter!

Drops of blood fell onto the frost-covered white stone floor, blooming into cold, enchanting blood flowers one after another.

In the large white stone plaza, there were a full hundred scholars, yet at this moment, it was dead silent.

No one thought that anyone would dare to kill Xiao Jinchen, the descendant of the Three Dukes.

Even when Lu Fang was venting his anger with the small Yingyue sword with murderous intent, no one believed he would kill Xiao Jinchen, only thinking it was a lesson.

"He killed Xiao Jinchen!"

A scholar reached out to wipe the blood splashed on his face, staring blankly at Xiao Jinchen's headless corpse.

"You have such great courage! You actually dared to commit violence in public and kill Young Master Xiao!"

Hua Wenze's face turned pale, and he took several steps back, leaping into the air and turning into a stream of light to flee toward the very back.

"Sigh! Killing Xiao Jinchen, even if he is a heaven-sent talent who condensed a book spirit at such a young age, there is only a dead end."

"What a pity for the book spirit!"

"Too impulsive!"

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, feeling sorry for Lu Fang. Condensing a book spirit meant a bright future, but killing Xiao Jinchen meant there was no future.

Crack!

Chen Ji broke free from the freezing, looking at Lu Fang, who was quietly wiping the blood off his face, and the head and headless corpse of Xiao Jinchen on the ground, his expression somewhat grave.

If he had killed Xiao Jinchen, it would be no big deal.

He was a lone person with a lowly life; at worst, he would just pay with his life.

"Brother Lu, you shouldn't have..."

Chen Ji paused; he was the least qualified to lecture Lu Fang.

"Someone wanted to put me to death in the academy; it is only natural for me to kill them back, and I have a clear conscience."

Lu Fang said sonorously.

Chen Ji sighed: "That is how it is said, and that is the logic. I don't think Brother Lu did anything wrong, but you should hurry and follow me to see Supervisor Liu to explain the situation, lest there be endless trouble!"

"The trouble has already arrived."

Lu Fang looked toward the back of the academy.

"Who killed Xiao Jinchen!"

A roar rang out.

Only to see a white-robed middle-aged man with hair standing on end in anger soaring into the air from the very back of the academy. With one step in the air, he had already arrived at the white stone plaza.

Upon seeing Xiao Jinchen's head and corpse, the white-robed middle-aged man scanned the students on the field with a ferocious face.

Everyone scanned by the middle-aged man's gaze did not dare to look him in the eye, except for one person—Lu Fang.

"It was you who killed my nephew."

The white-robed middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, like a poisonous snake staring at Lu Fang.

Without waiting for Lu Fang to answer, Hua Wenze, who had hurriedly returned, answered first: "Supervisor Xiao, it was he who killed Young Master Xiao Jinchen. Everyone here witnessed it with their own eyes."

The "Fifth Uncle" Xiao Jinchen shouted before he died was this white-robed middle-aged man. This person was called Xiao Xun, one of the two Supervisors of Wenyuan Academy.

"Mountain!"

Xiao Xun spat out a word.

A mountain peak several zhang high descended from the sky, smashing down toward Lu Fang.

Almost at the same time, after the golden mystic armor attached to Lu Fang's body, he narrowly dodged the falling mountain peak.

"You are a Supervisor of Wenyuan Academy, yet you want to kill without asking right or wrong. You have such great prestige!"

Lu Fang scolded.

Xiao Xun, who had wanted to suppress and kill Lu Fang directly, stopped his hand and laughed in extreme anger: "Truly ignorant of the height of heaven and earth. You killed my Xiao family member, yet you are still here arguing with fallacies."

"He wanted to kill me, what is wrong with me killing him back?"

Lu Fang asked with his head held high and chest out.

Xiao Xun sneered: "Jinchen wanting to kill you naturally has his reasons. You defied the Great Zhou law and killed my Xiao family member. Not only will you die, but your clansmen will also be implicated."

"You can try and see!"

Lu Fang's face darkened.

If his strength were enough, he would have killed Xiao Xun on the spot. He was full of twisted logic and even dared to threaten his family.

"You actually dare to speak to Supervisor Xiao like this!"

Hua Wenze pointed at Lu Fang and scolded, looking like a petty person who had succeeded and was gloating.

"Heaven is great, earth is great, but reason is the greatest. I don't care if you are a Xiao family member or a cat or dog. Asking me to stand still and let you kill me, and listening to your twisted logic without a sound—even if you talk until the sky breaks, it won't work."

Lu Fang said righteously.

"Well said!" Chen Ji, who had been silent, clapped and cheered, "Even if the sky falls today, I will stand with Brother Lu and hold it up."

"Noisy!" Xiao Xun waved his sleeves in anger, emitting a powerful pressure from his body, pressing Chen Ji to the ground, unable to even raise his head.

"Eh?"

A sound of doubt rang out.

Xiao Xun looked at Lu Fang, who was standing straight, somewhat surprised. He was at the Second Rank Master Realm, and the "momentum" he exerted actually had no effect on an Eighth Rank, First Stage scholar.

How is this possible!

"Kneel down for me!" Lu Fang took out a token from his waist, held it high, and shouted at Xiao Xun.

Thump!

Xiao Xun's knees bent and he knelt heavily on the ground, stirring up dust.

"This is..."

"Heavens, I must be dreaming!"

"What happened to Supervisor Xiao?"

Just as everyone was shocked, the token held by Lu Fang flickered with light, and a blurry phantom of an old man appeared.

Xiao Xun had almost no resistance, his whole face pressed tightly against the ground by the phantom's pressure.
