Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 146 Be honest with each other
The students of Bailu Academy were somewhat touched when they saw Yun Zhiqiu's body.

Although Yun Zhiqiu was not a top genius, he was certainly extraordinary to be able to enter the Bailu Academy. Moreover, he was born in the Yun family of Yunmeng City and was also at the foundation-building stage. However, he was killed here by Huang Xiong's hammer because of a momentary thought.

Huang Xiong's fighting power became stronger again. Yun Zhiqiu lost the initiative and had no chance at all until his death.

Huang Xiong glanced at Yun Zhiqiu's body with contempt, which was full of disdain. Such a villain deserved to die, and he felt nothing in his heart.

Back in the academy, Huang Xiong bowed to Mr. Lu and said, "I was impulsive, please punish me, sir."

Huang Xiong would not have any resentment if he was punished for this.

"Yun Zhiqiu is no longer a student of Bailu Academy. The academy has no business in the grudges between you two." The old man responded indifferently. What he said to Li Fan before actually meant that he had tacitly agreed that Li Fan could kill him.

After the old man finished speaking, he looked in another direction.

Xiao Qiang frowned. Seeing Yun Zhiqiu's death, she felt a little uneasy. The academy was a holy place for cultivation in Jiangzhou. She didn't expect that the academy teacher would condone such a thing to happen.

"You were not a student of the academy before, so the academy rules naturally cannot restrict you. However, do you need to give an explanation for what the Huangji Sect did?" said the old man.

This matter is obviously not over yet.

Yun Zhiqiu revealed Li Fan's identity with ulterior motives, which could not be simply explained away as "unintentional".

However, as a force that spreads news, the intentions of the Huangji Sect are extremely sinister.

What is their purpose?

"This matter has nothing to do with the Huangji Sect." Xiao Qiang still denied.

"Whether you admit it or not is irrelevant. Let your father come to the academy." The old man said to Xiao Qiang, "Although the Huangji Sect has no connection with the academy, and the academy cannot restrict the Huangji Sect, but since the Huangji Sect is the sect of Yunmeng City, even if the White Deer Academy is for Yunmeng City, it needs an explanation from the Huangji Sect. Is the Huangji Sect colluding with the demons?"

"How can you say that, sir?" Xiao Qiang's face changed slightly.

If the label of colluding with demons is attached to the Huangji Sect, the Huangji Sect will be in trouble.

"Why do you say that? You know the reason. I believe that all the human practitioners in Yunmeng City also know the reason. I won't make things difficult for you. Go back and tell your father and ask him to give an explanation." The old man continued. Xiao Qiang wanted to say something, but saw the old man waving his hand.

"Go." He said no more and turned away.

This matter has been decided and there is no room for negotiation.

Xiao Qiang looked embarrassed. She looked at the old man's back, then glanced in the direction of Li Fan, and finally turned around and walked out of Bailu Academy.

Many practitioners had gathered outside at this time. They also heard the conversation in the academy. When they saw Xiao Qiang walk out, many of them pointed at him.

"Huangji Sect is the top sect in Yunmeng City. We didn't see them during the battle against the demons that day. I didn't expect that they were so sinister behind the scenes to frame Young Master Yang."

"The Huangji Sect has sinister intentions. I don't know why Xiao Qiang came to the academy. We really need the White Deer Academy to find out and give Young Master Yang an explanation."

Everyone was talking about it, and these voices were particularly harsh in Xiao Qiang's ears. She quickened her pace and left, but this matter would probably spread throughout Yunmeng City soon, and the reputation of the Huangji Sect would be ruined.

Bailu Academy is so cruel for Yang Qingshan?

Yang Qingshan was not even a student of the academy. Before the news spread, Yang Qingshan did not live in Bailu Academy and had no connection with the academy.

It was only after the news spread that the academy invited Yang Qingshan to join.

Therefore, when Huangji Sect spread the news, it did not take the academy into consideration.

Even the students of Bailu Academy looked at Yang Qingshan with some envy.

The academy treats him very well.

Even students in the academy have never received such treatment.

How could it have ever happened that Bailu Academy would stand up for an outsider in the name of Bailu Academy?
Is it because of the battle with the demon?

Li Fan bowed to the old man who was leaving and said, "Thank you, sir."

"I will naturally do what I promised you." The old man did not turn around and responded calmly: "You fought for Yunmeng City, but the people in the city betrayed you. Some things have to be done by someone. If they don't do it, Yunmeng City will have no rules."

Yunmeng City is a city of practitioners. Over the years, many practitioners have guarded this city and resisted demons until the current balanced situation was achieved.

But if such a thing is allowed to happen, then this city will have no meaning to exist.

So, this isn't just for Li Fan.

Li Fan watched the old man leave, then turned around and returned to the yard. Lu Yuan, Huang Xiong and others followed him.

I only heard Lu Yuan whisper: "Why don't you join the academy as well?"

Li Fan looked at her, only to hear Lu Yuan say with a smile: "It's just a name. The academy is a place for learning, not a sect. Look at the academy, what difference does it make whether you enter or not? It's better to let the academy act with a legitimate reason."

"Alright."

Li Fan felt that Lu Yuan's words made a lot of sense. There was actually no difference whether to enter or not.

What else can he do when the academy treats him like this?
Lu Yuan chuckled when she saw Li Fan agreed. Li Fan is the Lishan Sword Master, and in the future he might even take charge of Lishan and become the new generation of Lishan Sword Master.

If one day, the world knew that the Master of Lishan Sword had practiced in Bailu Academy, then it would be a good thing for Bailu Academy.

When Li Fan returned to the courtyard, he saw Qu Qingfeng sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.

"Sir." Li Fan came and sat down opposite Qu Qingfeng. "I had some guesses before, and with the help of this incident, we can find out whether there are other forces behind the Huangji Sect." Qu Qingfeng looked up and handed Li Fan a cup of tea.

Li Fan nodded, it turned out that the academy had this intention.

If he really has a court background, then I'm afraid it will be exposed.

Moreover, this incident has a very bad impact on the reputation of the Huangji Sect. It will not be easy for the Huangji Sect to continue to gain a foothold in Yunmeng City in the future.

"Sir, if there really is a background, I'm a little worried." Li Fan said.

If he has a background in the imperial court, will he use his power to suppress the academy?
"The White Deer Academy has existed in Yunmeng City for hundreds of years. It does not care about external affairs, does not seek fame or fortune, and only teaches and imparts knowledge. Even if you want to accuse the White Deer Academy of a crime, you don't know where to start." Qu Qingfeng said: "If you really force your way into the White Deer Academy..."

Qu Qingfeng smiled and shook his head.

Reputation is sometimes very useful. In Yunmeng City, Bailu Academy is a holy place.

Bailu Academy is different from Lishan. Lishan is hidden from the world, while Bailu Academy is open to the world.

Moreover, before taking action against Li Shan, the imperial court still charged Li Shan with the crime of colluding with demons.

You can't accuse Bailu Academy of the same crime again, right?
Even if I wanted to give it, I wouldn't know where to start.

Li Fan nodded, and felt more at ease.

"Sir, if I kill Yun Zhiqiu, will it have any impact on the academy?" Huang Xiong asked.

Huang Xiong killed Yun Zhiqiu because Yun Zhiqiu deserved to die and he would not think he was wrong.

However, the academy is a holy place, and he does not want its reputation to be affected.

"A gentleman repays evil with kindness. How can he repay kindness?" Qu Qingfeng said with a smile. Huang Xiong didn't quite understand, but when he saw the gentleman's expression, he understood that the gentleman did not mean to blame him.

"Sir, I would like to enter Bailu Academy. Would the academy be willing to accept me?" Li Fan looked at Qu Qingfeng and asked.

Qu Qingfeng looked up at him, smiled and nodded: "Of course."

"But, if we get into trouble, I'm worried that it will affect the academy." Li Fan was a little worried.

"Even if you don't enter the academy, will the academy abandon you?" Qu Qingfeng asked, "What's the difference?"

Li Fan was filled with emotion and was speechless.

"I know you are worried about your identity. It's okay. I have already guessed where you are from." Qu Qingfeng said with a smile.

Li Fan looked at him and was not too surprised.

It's normal to guess.

Lu Yuan looked at Qu Qingfeng with some surprise.

It turns out that the gentleman already knew it.

Huang Xiong and Ji Xue on the side were stunned and looked at Li Fan in surprise. So, Li Fan had an extraordinary origin?

Yes, how could such a talented swordsman have no background?

They should have thought of that too.

"I can guess it, and I'm afraid that those who are interested can also guess it a little." Qu Qingfeng said: "In this case, there is no need to think about it."

"Okay." Li Fan nodded.

Qu Qingfeng looked up at Ji Xue and Huang Xiong and said, "Don't tell outsiders about what happened here."

"Disciple understands." Ji Xue bowed.

"Don't worry, sir." Huang Xiong nodded seriously.

Qu Qingfeng had some idea of ​​the two men's personalities and was not worried. Moreover, they had also seen what happened to Yun Zhiqiu, so why would they worry about it?

Moreover, Ji Xue admires him and Huang Xiong respects him, so it is impossible for them to be like Yun Zhiqiu.

"If I want to enter the academy, do I need to do anything?" Li Fan asked.

"No need, the academy will release the news to the public, and that's all." Qu Qingfeng: "All those red tapes will be omitted."

"Okay." Li Fan nodded.

Not long after, the news that Yang Qingshan became a student of the academy spread in the academy, and then spread outward to Yunmeng City.

At the same time, what happened outside the academy also quickly spread throughout Yunmeng City.

For a time, countless people were discussing this matter.

However, this seemed to be expected. The academy would naturally protect a gifted person like Yang Qingshan, so it was reasonable for him to become a student of the academy.

As for Yun Zhiqiu, this person revealed Yang Qingshan's identity, so now he is dead, and I'm afraid the Yun family won't dare to say anything more.

As for the Huangji Sect, Bailu Academy is waiting for their explanation, and the people of Yunmeng City also want to see what explanation the Huangji Sect will give.
