Xia Bojian could be considered a wise man. From the beginning of his plan, he had already realized that the identities of Lu Ping and the others would be a barrier in front of the Institute's supervisory board. Therefore, he did not plan on using the supervisory board to deal with Lu Ping and the others.
Using the supervisory board's hand, he would target Chu Min and then use Chu Min to get rid of Yunchong.
This way, he could kill two birds with one stone and become the Dean. Wouldn't it be a simple matter to deal with these four little brats?
He completely did not expect that such a plan would be thwarted in such a way. The other party would actually … … act shamelessly.
The characteristics of Soul Severing were obvious and could be seen at a glance. This could not be denied no matter what. Xia Bojian had been careless for a moment. He did not expect that the other party would act shamelessly in relation to Chu Min and draw a clear line between them and Chu Min.
Xia Bojian carefully sensed Su Tang and Morin's current state. He could not detect any connection between them and Chu Min.
However, the supervisor of the Institute's supervisory board did not have this kind of patience. The other party's blatant and clumsy lies showed that he did not place them in his eyes at all. When had the supervisor of the Institute's supervisory board ever suffered such humiliation in the Academy? Not only was he beaten, but he was also played like an idiot?
"With just you guys, you can use Soul Severing?" Although the supervisor was angry, his point of view was still relatively accurate. Soul Severing was not only a cultivation method. Before it was used as a cultivation method, it was first and foremost a special ability. A special ability that could also be used in battle. Soul Severing was similar to the "Ecstasy Soul Lock" that Lu Ping had received. Soul Severing was also a custom-made ability. Moreover, its evaluation was not low, reaching up to the fifth level.
Soul Severing wasn't something that could be used whenever one wanted. There had to be a cultivator who had grasped this special ability. Just based on Lu Ping and the others, none of them had this kind of condition. To say that they had used Soul Severing to cultivate was absolutely unjustifiable.
"Uh, of course, this was also because of someone's guidance." Lu Ping said.
"Who is it?" the supervisor asked aggressively.
"Can't you say it?" Lu Ping said.
"Of course you don't have to say anything, but the Council will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. I'd like to see who's more stubborn, you or those three brats. "A hint of madness appeared in the supervisor's eyes. His threat was not empty. Using a forbidden technique to cultivate was not a trivial matter. He could use this opportunity to make a big fuss, and it wouldn't be a problem for him to cripple a few students. Even if these students weren't from the supervisory board of the Zhiling district, it was better to stick their noses into something as important as this. He would always be able to stand on the side of reason. The city lord of the Peak Gorge district couldn't really go to war with the authorities of the zhiling district over this issue, could he?
As for the goal that Xia Bojian wanted to achieve, it was secondary to him. However, Xia Bojian was extremely satisfied with the current situation. He was worried that the Commission would find it troublesome and hand the matter over to the Gorge District. However, when Lu Ping and the others came up to fight, and then lied, it was obvious that they had completely infuriated the academy's supervisory board. Even if Xia Bojian wished for the other party to stop, the other party might not even care.
This was even better than what Xia Bojian had expected. Since the Commission was so insistent on getting to the bottom of this, they would eventually find out about Chu Min. This was the truth, an unchangeable truth. The world wasn't so naive as to think that a lie like that would cover up the matter. These little brats were asking for trouble.
A faint smile floated onto Xia Bojian's face, one that said everything was within his grasp. At this moment, a gust of wind blew through the forest, bringing with it the fragrance of wine. Chu Min. She had suddenly appeared just like that.
Xia Bojian hurriedly spoke up before anyone else. This had been part of his plan to begin with.
"Chu Min, did you use Soul-Severing on them?!" Xia Bojian shouted.
It was a very simple and direct question. It seemed that Xia Bojian was a bit naive this time. Would he receive a satisfactory answer from such a direct question?
The Commission didn't look forward to it, but Yun Chong was already cursing inwardly.
Xia Bojian's direct question seemed to be wishful thinking, but it was actually a farsighted plan. He had completely grasped Chu Min's temperament. With Chu Min's temperament, when had she ever cared about the academy's rules? Would she be afraid of the threat of the Commission?
No. With her temper, she wouldn't be afraid to admit what she had done. Whether it was good or bad, no matter what the result would be, she would definitely have the courage to bear it.
Xia Bojian had grasped this point, so he asked directly. As long as Chu Min answered with a "yes" indifferently, this matter would be easily concluded. It was that simple.
"I've said it before. It was our own choice. It had nothing to do with Teacher Chu Min." However, it was Lu Ping who quickly answered Xia Bojian. He repeated what he had said seriously, and his tone became more and more determined. But Xia Bojian didn't care. Chu Min, do you think she needs your protection? Sending you flying with a kick is probably what she will do next.
As a result, to Xia Bojian's surprise, Chu Min didn't kick Lu Ping away, nor did she speak immediately. Instead, she looked at Lu Ping in surprise.
This guy actually wants to protect me?
Of course, Chu Min didn't think she needed any protection. Just as Xia Bojian thought, if someone asked about this kind of thing, she would decisively admit it and wouldn't take it seriously.
But Chu Min had seen Lu Ping's firmness and determination when protecting Su Tang. At this time, he used this firmness and determination on Chu Min seriously.
Although Chu Min felt that it was unnecessary, she couldn't refuse this firmness and determination.
"Chu Min, is it like this?" Xia Bojian spoke with an expression of victory.
"Uh …" Chu Min, who had always been straightforward, actually hesitated at this moment. Finally, she smiled and said, "Let's say so!"
Let's say so!
What kind of stupid answer is this? On the surface, she agreed with Lu Ping, but there was some reluctance and awkwardness hidden in her words.
However, this was Chu Min's answer.
She accepted Lu Ping's protection, but she was reluctant and awkward about it. Therefore, her words immediately revealed it. Chu Min was still Chu Min, and she was still so straightforward.
Xia Bojian was stunned, and so was Yunchong. For those who knew a little about Chu Min, this answer was so unbelievable that they almost thought they had heard it wrong. Yunchong even used his telepathic swallow to secretly send a message to Chu Min. "Really?"
After hearing Chu Min's answer, Lu Ping took two steps forward and shielded Chu Min behind him. His intention of protecting her was even more obvious.
"Is that so?" The inspector sneered. He clearly didn't know how different Chu Min's behavior was. In his view, the answer "let's say so" was just as arrogant, just as savage, and just as brazen as "the air is good."
"Although you say this, I still have to use my status as an inspector of the Zhiling district's Board of Overseers to suspect you of using 'Soul Decapitation' to assist a student's cultivation. Please come back with us to assist in our investigation." The inspector flashed his badge in front of Chu Min once again. He knew that Chu Min was far stronger than those brats, but no matter how strong, she was still a tutor of Amaterasu College. She had to submit in front of the Academy Supervisory Board.
But Yunchong was already sighing inwardly and shaking his head.
He was easy to bully as the dean, but Chu Min … what use did you think it would be if you flashed your status as an inspector? Even if you were the chairman of the Academy Supervisory Board, it wouldn't be of any use!
"Oh? Soul Cutter? "Chu Min responded.
"Your suspicions are reasonable. I can barely use the Soul Severing Sword, but whether or not it can be used for cultivation needs to be investigated." As soon as he finished speaking, the wind blew.
A gust of wind.
The inspector's feet left the ground as his cloak flapped in the wind. His hair and even his eyebrows danced wildly in the wind. His mouth, nose, and ears were all twisted.
"What … do … you … want … to … do …?" In the strong wind, it was already extremely difficult for him to speak with his crooked and trembling mouth. His hands and feet were frozen in midair by the wind and he couldn't move at all.
"I've come to help you investigate my Soul Cutter. I hope you will cooperate. Don't resist carelessly. Otherwise, it won't be good if I don't know what I'm doing." As Chu Min spoke, she raised her right hand in the air. A ball of light and shadow slowly appeared on her right hand.
Soul Cutter wasn't just an ability for cultivation. When it was first created, it was an exceedingly cruel method of battle. Those who were struck by it would live a life worse than death.
