Lin Tian did not hide anything. He simply nodded in response to Zhu Yi's question.

"Why?"
Zhu Yi asked.
"That bastard had a death wish!" Xin Chengyun said, "When Brother-in-law came to the Imperial City, a good friend spent a few days taming a Dragon Scale Colt as a gift for Brother-in-law. That Dragon Scale Colt was also very 'human'. When I wanted to ride it, it refused and only acknowledged Brother-in-law. But today, it was cruelly killed by that bastard …"
At that moment, Xin Chengyun briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
Zhu Yi was shocked and seemed a little angry. "How despicable!"
Old Servant Li stared at Lin Tian, slightly surprised.
"Little brother, you're really loyal to your friends to do so much for a mount. This old man admires you!"
Old Servant Li said.
Lin Tian shook his head. He did not want to say anything more about this matter. Sushu was his best friend. She had helped him a lot all this time. He had even entrusted his only sister to Sushu. However, he did not protect the gift Sushu gave him. This made him feel very sorry for Sushu.
Creak!
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and someone walked in angrily.
"Lin Tian!"
Two middle-aged men walked in. They were Han He and Liu Lan.
Both of them were furious. A few days ago, Lin Tian had killed the young master of the Leng family in front of everyone in the freshmen ranking competition. At that time, both of them saw Lin Tian's Dragon Mark Medallion and remembered Lin Tian's amazing talent and aptitude. Unexpectedly, only a few days later, Lin Tian had killed another person in the imperial courtyard.
Since the founding of the imperial courtyard, no one had ever been so bold!
Both of them walked into the room with ashen faces. However, in the next moment, both of them were slightly moved. Their eyes fell on Zhu Yi. "Ninth Prince?"
Zhu Yi nodded and bowed slightly. "Elder Han, Elder Liu."
Although Zhu Yi was a prince, the elders of the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard all had astonishing cultivation levels. Almost all of them were in the Sea of Consciousness Realm. Even emperors would have to show respect to experts of this level. It was also because of this that Han He and the others were qualified to say that even if Lin Tian had the Dragon Mark Medallion in the future, they would not forgive him.
Han He and Liu Lan cupped their hands in greeting.
Then, the two of them looked at Lin Tian with ashen faces. "Lin Tian, you are too bold!"
Staring at Lin Tian, both of them emitted a cold aura.
Lin Tian's aptitude was indeed astonishing. Sixteen years old, nine star talent, and a Level Three Formation Manipulation Master. He was definitely a super freakish genius. However, this freakish genius seemed to be a little too excessive. He completely disregarded the imperial courtyard's taboos as if they were nothing. (
)
"Elders, Lin Tian has a clear conscience regarding today's matter."
Lin Tian said solemnly.
Facing Han He and Liu Lan's cold gazes, Lin Tian appeared very calm.
Han He and Liu Lan were furious. "You dare to say that you have a clear conscience after killing your fellow disciple?!"
"Clear conscience!"
Lin Tian nodded.
Lin Tian's expression infuriated Han He and Liu Lan even more.
At this time, Zhu Yi took a step forward and said, "Elder Han, Elder Liu, when I came to the imperial courtyard just now, I heard many rumors. I also asked about the cause of this matter in detail. My friend did not do anything wrong in this matter."
"That's right! That bastard was the one who sought death! "
Xin Chengyun said.
Then, Xin Chengyun explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail.
Han He and Liu Lan frowned and looked at Lin Tian.
"Even if that's the case, you still shouldn't ruthlessly kill him. Although your Dragon Scale Horse possesses extraordinary significance, it is after all only a Monstrous Beast. To kill a fellow disciple for a Monstrous Beast, isn't it a bit too excessive?"
Liu Lan said in a low voice.
"Only a demonic beast?" Lin Tian looked at Liu Lan calmly. "If I may ask, Elder, if you were in Lin Tian's position, and the imperial courtyard happened to have no rule against killing fellow disciples, what would you do if the mount that your best friend spent so much effort and time to give you was cruelly killed?"
"I would kill that person!" Liu Lan said, "Unfortunately, your assumption is not valid. The imperial courtyard has always had such a rule."
Lin Tianyi smiled and said, "So, in the end, what you care about is not the killing of your fellow disciple, nor the cause of the matter. You only care about the rules."
"You …"
Liu Lan's expression darkened, and he did not look too good.
"The Dragon Scale Horse was a gift from my best friend. She has always helped me a lot. Now that the Dragon Scale Horse was cruelly killed, for the sake of the so-called rules, I should swallow the insult and do nothing? If that's really the case, how can I face my good friend in the future? Does the imperial courtyard want to nurture someone who would disregard friendship to protect himself? "
Lin Tian stared calmly at Liu Lan and Han He.
Han He and Liu Lan's expressions changed. They did not expect Lin Tian's words to be so sharp that they could not refute him.
On the side, Xin Chengyun stared at Lin Tian with wide eyes.
"As expected of my brother-in-law. He actually made the elders of the imperial courtyard speechless."
Xin Chengyun muttered in a low voice.
Han He and Liu Lan's faces were ashen. For a moment, they did not know what to say.
At this moment, Zhu Yi took a step forward and said, "Elder Han, Elder Liu, this matter really isn't my friend's fault. Moreover, my friend is right. The imperial courtyard isn't meant to nurture people who disregard their relationships for the sake of rules. Elders, please give Zhu Yi face and forgive my friend once more, alright?"
Zhu Yi was very polite to Han He and Liu Lan.
Han He and Liu Lan stared at Lin Tian with unsightly expressions. After a long while, they looked at each other and could not help but sigh. Liu Lan said, "Since there's a reason for this matter and the Ninth Prince has pleaded for leniency, we'll let this matter go."
Han He looked at Lin Tian and said, "Young man, we admit that your words are very reasonable. People who disregard friendship for the sake of rules are indeed not the elites that the imperial courtyard wants to nurture. However, the Imperial Courtyard is filled with competition, and this rule was set up for the sake of restraining the extreme competition of the various disciples. Just think about it, if disciples could kill each other for the sake of competition or other matters, then wouldn't the Imperial Courtyard fall into complete chaos? Therefore, you must remember not to violate this rule in the future. If you violate it again, no matter how outstanding your talent is, we'll mercilessly attack you! "
Han He stared at Lin Tian with a solemn expression.
"Thank you, Elder." Lin Tian Wei bowed slightly and said, "This disciple can guarantee that I won't take the initiative to cause trouble. However, if someone comes looking for someone, I can't guarantee that I won't violate the rules. At the very least, this disciple will definitely kill Leng Feng! As for him, he'll definitely think of a way to kill me. "
"You!"
Han He pointed at Lin Tian angrily. On the other hand, Liu Lan could not help but smile wryly.
Liu Lan patted Han He's shoulder and said to Lin Tiandao, "You'll have to deal with the matter between you and the Leng family."
Han He looked at Liu Lan and sighed in the end.
In fact, after the freshmen ranking battle, Han He and Liu Lan had investigated in detail. Leng Feng had indeed mobilized the power of his family to assassinate Lin Tian during the freshmen assessment. This matter had already violated the imperial courtyard's rules. Moreover, Lin Tian was telling the truth. Lin Tiansha had killed Leng Yitong, and the Leng family would definitely not let Lin Tian go. The two of them could not stop the entire Leng family, so what right and reason did they have to stop Lin Tian?
"Thank you for your understanding, Elder Liu."
Lin Tian bowed.
Liu Lan nodded and looked at Zhu Yi, saying, "Ninth Prince, do you need us to make some arrangements for your cultivation in the imperial courtyard?"
Liu Lan and Han He's cultivation were shocking, and even the members of the imperial family had to show respect to them. However, the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard was established by the Northern Flame Country, so the two of them still had to show respect to the princes of the imperial family.
"There's no need to trouble the two elders. In fact, I'm only here to cultivate occasionally."
Zhu Yi said.
"Alright, if there's anything you need, just say it."
Liu Lan said.
With that, Liu Lan and Han He took one last look at Lin Tian before walking out.
Lin Tian did not dare to be careless and personally saw the two of them out.
At this time, the outer courtyard residential area was already crowded with people. The two elders of the imperial courtyard came to the outer courtyard residential area, and they even brought along a dozen of the imperial courtyard's enforcement deacons. These people naturally knew the purpose of the two elders' visit. They were here because of Lin Tiansha's death and Xia Wu's death. Therefore, everyone was waiting to see how the matter would be handled.
"They're out!"
"Eh? Why wasn't Lin Tian taken away? "
"Why did the two elders leave just like that?"
"The enforcement deacons also left. Aren't they going to pursue Lin Tian's crime?"
"This …"
Seeing Han He and Liu Lan leave Lin Tian's residence, all the onlookers widened their eyes.
Xia Wu's body had already been taken away by the imperial courtyard's deacons. At this moment, all the onlookers were staring at Han He and Liu Lan leaving the outer courtyard residential area.
After seeing Han He and Liu Lan leave, Lin Tian walked back into the house and closed the door.
"It's finally over!"
Xin Chengyun sighed. He was actually very nervous when facing the two elders of the imperial courtyard just now.
Lin Tian looked at Zhu Yi and said, "Thank you, Ninth Prince, for pleading on my behalf just now."
Zhu Yi shook his head and said, "You're welcome. Moreover, I didn't do anything. The most important thing is that you're in the right. If not for that, even if I'm a prince, Liu Lan and Han He wouldn't have to give me face."
Xin Chengyun rolled his eyes, "Brother-in-law, there's still me! I also spoke up for you. "
"Didn't you say that we're family and there's no need to thank me?"
Lin Tian teased.
"That's true. I forgot about that." Xin Chengyun's eyes lit up, then he chuckled and said, "I knew that you and my sister were having an affair. You were too embarrassed to admit it, but now you've exposed it!"
Lin Tian, "…"
Was this guy really Xin Yao's biological brother? He actually dared to say that his sister was having an affair with someone else without any hesitation.
Somewhat speechless, Lin Tian looked at Zhu Yi and asked, "By the way, Ninth Prince, are you going to stay in the imperial courtyard or just cultivate here?"
"Yes, I'm only here to cultivate occasionally. I won't be staying here."
Zhu Yi smiled.
Lin Tian nodded. This was more or less what he had guessed. After all, Xin Chengyun was not staying in the imperial courtyard.
