In order to protect himself, the youth spilled everything he knew.
Long before the day of the Spirit Hunt, Yin Yan had sought them out. This group of them were all senior disciples from the Weapon Spirit and Beast Spirit faculties. Although their individual powers were not considered top notch, but their Ring Spirits were rather unique. Just like the youth who had possessed a Weapon Spirit at the very beginning. If not for Fei Yan's intervention, he would have been able to control Fan Jin's movements at the first instance, allowing the others to succeed in the shortest time possible.
Yin Yan had used his status as a disciple of the Spirit Healer faculty to promise them countless benefits, and hinted to them that if they managed to get rid of Fan Jin, their positions in the Zephyr Academy would be more secure.
"Everyone knows that Yin Yan and Senior Apprentice Sister Ning have an extremely good relationship. Senior Apprentice Sister Ning is the daughter of the Vice Headmaster, so Yin Yan's intentions are also Senior Apprentice Sister Ning's intentions. We … we were blinded by greed. I beg Senior Apprentice Brother Fan to show mercy and spare me this time. The youth pleaded in tears. If not for Ning Xin's support, they would not have agreed to Yin Yan's request so easily.
Fan Jin was the Headmaster's adopted son!
"Ning Xin ….. How could it be ….. How could it be him?" When Fan Jin heard Ning Xin's name, the blood drained from his face. He took a step back in shock, unable to accept the youth's words.
Jun Xie glanced at Fan Jin and asked the youth: "Besides you guys, is there anyone else?"
The youth quickly shook his head and said: "No! No one else! Yin Yan told us that he will think of a way to force you to join the Spirit Hunt with Senior Fan. With a burden like you by Senior Fan's side ….. it will be easier for us to make our move. "The youth glanced at Jun Xie and said timidly.
"What?" Fan Jin's eyes widened as he stared at the youth.
If it was said that Jun Xie's participation in the Spirit Hunt had been Yin Yan's objective, then wouldn't those people who had gone to the little bamboo grove to hurl insults at Jun Xie earlier have all been arranged by Yin Yan?
A thought suddenly surfaced in Fan Jin's mind. He covered his face with his hands, cold sweat dripping down his face.
If it was said that the rumours and slanders against Jun Xie had only appeared because he had brought Jun Xie along, and those people were targeting Jun Xie just to suppress him …..
Then, wouldn't that mean, the one who had been dragged down all this time, was not him! He was the one who had dragged Jun Xie down!
This thought caused Fan Jin's feet to tremble, and he almost lost his footing.
Fan Jin could not say another word. Jun Wu Xie asked the youth a few more questions and after ascertaining that she would not be able to get any more information out of him, she gave Qiao Chu a meaningful look.
Before the youth could even beg for mercy, Qiao Chu had already snapped his neck.
Seeing the man fall limply onto the ground, Fan Jin's eyes were filled with a complicated mix of emotions. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Jun Xie. "Little Xie, you knew all along that this was a trap?"
Jun Wu Xie nodded in acknowledgment.
"From the moment the injured youth appeared, you already knew?" Fan Jin stared at Jun Xie.
"It's impossible for a seventeen or eighteen year old disciple to appear in a branch." That injured disciple's acting skills were still passable, but with his age, he did not look like he would be able to join the branch division. Moreover, a disciple from the branch division had been able to identify Fan Jin as a human with just a single glance. That was just illogical.
