"Say it if you want to!"
The white-bearded old man urged again, "You won't be able to escape today. Instead of wasting time here, why don't you face it head-on! "
As for the current situation, he could still see it quite clearly.
He knew that Xu Yan would not be able to escape today no matter what.
After all, so many people were watching him and Qin Yi had already said that he would find out the truth of the matter.
He could tell that Qin Yi was trying his best to restrain himself.
If he was really an impatient person, like him, he would not give the other party the chance to delay for such a long time when he encountered such a situation. He would immediately make a move and use all kinds of methods to make the other party spill the secret.
Qin Yi had already given him enough face by not making a move yet.
However, giving him face now did not mean that he would always give him face.
If Xu Yan still didn't have the slightest intention to speak up, then it was inevitable that she would suffer a lot.
The white-bearded old man was furious. His disciple should not be so stupid as to not know this.
Now that he knew that there was no point in delaying, why should he continue to delay?
Moreover, he had raised Xu Yan since she was young.
All along, Xu Yan had been showing a very sensible side in front of him.
Moreover, he felt that Xu Yan should have been taught by him long ago and would admit her mistake at a time like this.
However, he did not expect Xu Yan to not do as he had imagined.
Even now, he was still stammering and looked like he was trying to delay for time.
Of course, what made him the most angry was the matter itself.
If he had a glimmer of hope in his heart that his disciple would not be such a person, then now, the other party's behavior had mercilessly extinguished the last bit of hope in his heart.
To be honest, if he did not have a guilty conscience, he should be holding his head high and telling everyone that he did not do anything wrong.
The more he stammered, the more it showed that he was indeed hiding a secret in his heart like what Qin Yi had guessed.
Moreover, it was a secret that could not be told to anyone outside.
The more he tried to hide it, the more it showed how wrong he was this time.
He had taught her for so many years, and she had once become his pride, making him feel that she would definitely become a dragon among men in the future. But now, she had actually committed an unspeakable mistake behind his back. This matter pained him, but it also made him feel angry and disappointed.
Fortunately, although Xu Yan had done something wrong, she still listened to her master's words.
After the white-bearded old man said these words one after another, he finally nodded and began to admit, "That's right, I did it!"
Although he had already expected it, after hearing Xu Yan admit it herself, the white-bearded elder still felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
He couldn't imagine that his obedient disciple would actually be the instigator of such a vile thing.
If Xu Yan was just an accomplice who followed everyone, then this matter could be called a misunderstanding. After all, when there were so many people, it was inevitable for people to have a herd mentality.
Moreover, during this period of time, Qin Yi's actions had indeed made people feel very uncomfortable. Doing such a thing was at most a small mistake, and it could naturally be corrected after a little correction.
But now, his disciple had turned into the main culprit, which exceeded his expectations and made him feel even more disappointed.
The disciple that he had trained for so many years had done something unimaginable, so it was impossible to say that he was not disappointed.
"Can you tell me why you thought of doing this?"
Qin Yi's attitude was as cold as usual. It was obvious that he was better at controlling his emotions than the white-bearded elder in dealing with this matter.
"Let me put it another way …" Seeing that Xu Yan didn't answer, Qin Yi said again, "Did you do this because someone instructed you, or was it your own idea from the beginning?"
Although Qin Yi had long known that there must be someone else behind this matter, he didn't want to say this directly now.
He knew that at Xu Yan's age, although she didn't have much experience, she was at the age where it was very easy to get hot-blooded. At this age, as long as there was a little dissatisfaction, it was very easy to be instigated and do extremely dangerous things.
However, from the white-bearded elder's attitude toward Xu Yan, he didn't seem to be the type who liked to cause trouble.
From this angle, Xu Yan's nature shouldn't be considered particularly bad. Therefore, the possibility of her being instigated was very high.
Qin Yi could even conclude that there must be someone else behind this matter.
Even if it wasn't the clone of the Godly King, it must be someone sent by the Godly King.
"Indeed, someone said something to me."
At this time, Xu Yan was honest and directly said what was on his mind. After all, he had already started the conversation, so it wasn't that difficult for him to say what was going to happen next.
"I don't know this person. I only remember that he was an old man. "
As soon as the words "old man" were uttered, Qin Yi immediately became nervous.
This was because, in his memory, there was no other unfamiliar old man who would stir up trouble other than the Godly King.
"What did he say to you?"
Qin Yi did not delay at all and asked directly.
"He said that I originally had the chance to become the academy's most outstanding disciple, but once Qin Yi appeared, no one continued to pay attention to me."
One had to admit that although he didn't know if this old man was the Godly King, he was indeed very good at capturing people's inner weaknesses.
His words easily amplified the dissatisfaction in Xu Yan's heart.
"Then, he told me that if I want to continue to shine in the academy and contribute to the academy, I should chase Qin Yi away. Now is the perfect opportunity. As long as I cause trouble, everyone will know that Qin Yi is a vile person. When that time comes, the academy won't have a place for Qin Yi. "
As expected, this matter had been instigated by someone from the beginning to the end.
As for Xu Yan, it could be said that it was a coincidence, but at the same time, it could also be said that she was inevitably used as a chess piece.
If it was a coincidence, it was because there were too many people like her in the academy.
If it was a certainty, it was because Xu Yan, who had such thoughts, would definitely be used to participate in this matter!
