Chapter 15: Draw Ruin Upon Oneself
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Several teachers and some students rushed into the dorm immediately. Yunxiao strode after Feng Buping into the living room, sitting in a chair with a cheery look on his face as he looked at Lan Fei coldly.
A few minutes later, Lan Fei seemed to be having a hard time sitting still. He clearly saw a few students go into the bedroom, but they all came out with empty hands.
‘What a pig!’ He scolded Meng Kun in his heart for hiding the things so deeply. “Meng Kun, why don’t you help with the search?”
Meng Kun nodded and walked a few circles in the living room pretentiously before heading to the bedroom. Feng Buping’s cold gaze followed the former as he said, “If anyone dares to plant the evidence and frame an innocent student, I’ll immediately expel him!”
“I’ll go and have a look too!” Ruxue said with an angry face as she followed after Meng Kun. She had concluded that this was a scheme. So, if Meng Kun really found something, she could stop him in time.
Wang Feng smiled coldly and said, “Why don’t we all go in and have a look since we don’t trust each other?” He stepped out and followed closely behind the princess, immediately killing off her plan.
“Since you all are so interested in my bedroom, let’s go in and have a look together.” Yunxiao stood up and strode toward his bedroom. Immediately, more than a dozen people rushed over, all heading for the bedroom.
By this time, Meng Kun had already entered the room and turned the blankets a few times. His face instantly turned white as a sheet! He realized in a flash why Yunxiao looked as if he had nothing to fear. The undergarment and underpants he had hidden were all gone!
Just then, Lan Fei came into the room and sneered, “Meng Kun, scour the room and don’t miss a spot.”
Bathed in a cold sweat and trembling, Meng Kun walked over to Lan Fei and whispered in his ear.
“What!” Lan Fei’s face fell, and his furious growl instantly startled everyone. Under his almost cannibal gaze, Meng Kun’s legs trembled violently.
“Meng Kun, why are you standing there? I thought your master asked you to scour the room, didn’t he?” Yunxiao sneered.
Wang Feng finally found that something was not right. His eyes flashed with a glimmer of disappointment as he said coldly, “This is a small bedroom. I don’t think there’s anything here. It seems that Li Yunxiao should be innocent. The thief must be someone else.”
Feng Buping gave him a cold glance and then stared at Yunxiao thoughtfully.
Ruxue breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt annoyed at the same time. ‘Apparently, he knew that it was a scheme long ago, and had been ready for this, and yet he made me worry for the whole time!” she thought angrily.
Seeing that the plan had failed, Wang Feng had no mood to stay any longer. “Since Li Yunxiao is innocent, let’s all leave now,” he said lightly.
“You’re leaving just like that?”
After shouting out loudly, Yunxiao sneered, “Teacher Wang said that the thief must be someone else. Don’t you want to catch him?”
Taken aback, Wang Feng said coldly, “The campus is too large, and there are no witnesses or evidence. It will be very difficult to catch the thief now. The academy will handle this matter.”
With a cold smile on his face, Yunxiao said, “Who said there is no witness? I thought Meng Kun said he saw the thief? Could he be lying then? In that case, I have the reason to doubt that this dog’s master, Lan Fei, is the mastermind behind all this!”
Lan Fei was already fuming. “Li Yunxiao, don’t you sling mud at me!”
Yunxiao’s face grew stern as he said coldly, “The facts have cleared me of suspicion. Now it’s your turn to give me an answer.”
“What do you want?” Lan Fei growled.
“Very simple!” Yunxiao sneered, “To prove your innocence, I want to search your dorm as well! Of course, it’s not that I suspect you, Young Master Fei who has nothing to hide. But, I just can’t swallow this without doing anything.”
“Hmph! Since I said I’d give you an answer, I’ll naturally honor my word. Search all you want!” Lan Fei said with a righteous air. “But Li Yunxiao, I’m not done with you!”
The single dormitories of the dignitaries’ children were all in the same area, so the crowd took almost no time to arrive at Lan Fei’s dormitory.
Lan Fei pushed open the door confidently and said in a cold voice, “Search as you like, but don’t destroy my things. I am afraid you poor things can’t afford them!”
Yunxiao smiled faintly and waved. At the gesture, Chen Zhen and Han Bai immediately rushed into the room. Wang Feng’s face gradually grew unsightly as if he had sensed something wrong.
Sure enough, Han Bai and Chen Zhen soon carried a wooden chest out of the room. “Young Master Yun, we can’t open this chest!”
Lan Fei frowned and said coldly, “This is a chest I use to store my clothes in. Only my key can open it.”
He took out a golden key from his ring and inserted it into the lock. The chest opened with a creak. Everyone was struck dumb as soon as they saw the contents within!
Wang Feng’s pupils constricted, and he felt his head go blank. ‘There’s indeed a plot! He’s finished!’
Anyhow, the person who had a completely blank mind right now was Lan Fei. His eyes grew as large as copper bells as he muttered, “How’s this possible! No, I didn’t do this! This is a slander…Li Yunxiao, you’re framing me!” He growled madly.
“Framing you?” Yunxiao smiled faintly. “You said that this is your personal chest just now, and it can’t be opened without your key.”
“You…” Lan Fei was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
“So, it was you! You animal!” Looking at her pure white underwear half-exposed in the chest, Ruxue kicked Lan Fei in anger and embarrassment. “You sick freak! I’ll have the dean expel you!”
“Expel! Expel!”
Almost all the girls cried out in fury, and soon, the boys joined them as well. For a moment, the cries of ‘Expel!’ rang throughout the whole campus.
Chen Zhen casually rummaged through the contents in the chest and suddenly said in surprise, “Eh? Why is there half a box of soap in the chest besides the girls’ underwear?”
“Hehe! You never heard about the rumors?” Han Bai sneered. “It is said that besides being a psychopath, Lan Fei likes to throw soaps in the bathroom when boys are showering, forcing his lackeys to pick them up.”
“Eww! This is disgusting!”
Many guys turned pale, and could not help bending down and begin to vomit. Meanwhile, some male students beside Lan Fei hurriedly jumped away in fear, leaving an empty space around him in the blink of an eye.
Lan Fei was so mad that he felt his head reeling. He pointed a trembling finger at Yunxiao, but the pent-up anger in his chest stopped him from uttering a single word.
Yunxiao said in a loud and righteous voice, “Everyone, things have now become clear. Not only did Lan Fei steal girls’ undergarments and underpants, but he also forced male students to pick up soaps in the bathroom. He deserves to die! But, every nation has its own laws, and every family has its own rules. Although we are angry and wish we could hack him to pieces, the teachers of the academy are here. Let Teacher Feng and Teacher Wang handle the matter fairly!”
“We want justice!” Chen Zhen shouted immediately, and the whole campus soon rang with the cries of ‘We want justice!’.
Feng Buping gave Yunxiao a look of surprise. He did not expect that this kid, who had achieved nothing and could not practice martial arts, would have such a scheming mind. “Rest assured, everybody!” He said in a deep voice, “I’ll report this to the dean at once. When we have decided how to handle this matter, I’ll give you a satisfactory explanation!”
“Don’t worry, sisters!” Ruxue said angrily, “If the academy decides that this perverted animal can stay, we’ll go and see the dean ourselves! Otherwise, I’ll bring the matter to my father! In any case, I’m irreconcilable with this sick freak!”
“Yes! Irreconcilable!” Some girls who had their undergarments and underpants stolen echoed in shame and fury.
Lan Fei was really in a panic now. He hurriedly grabbed Wang Feng’s arm and said, “Save me, uncle! Save me!”
“Hmph!” Wang Feng shook off his hand and said coldly, “To wash a pig is to waste both water and soap!” He parted the crowd and ditched Lan Fei behind as he strode away. Under the current circumstances, he was powerless to do anything. Moreover, if he continued to stay, he might even drag himself into the troubled waters.
“Ah!” Lan Fei collapsed on the ground under all the accusing gazes.
Soon afterward, the academy’s decision was out. The evidence of Lan Fei’s theft of the girls’ underwear was conclusive, and the management of the academy unanimously agreed to expel him and never admit him again!
…
“Young Master Yun! Young Master Yun!”
Early in the morning, Han Bai rushed to Yunxiao’s dorm. “I’ve two news, one good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear?”
Yunxiao looked relaxed. “The good news must be that Lan Fei has been expelled. What about the bad news?”
Han Bai gave him a thumbs-up and praised, “Your foresight is indeed amazing! The bad news is that the chief examiner of this year’s annual assessment is Lan Fei’s uncle, Wang Feng! We’re finished! None of us can pass the assessment!”
Yunxiao sneered, “Finished what? If he’s so ignorant, I’ll make him scram together with Lan Fei!”
Han Bai was instantly astounded. “You’re truly savage, Young Master Yun! But, you better not act recklessly. Wang Feng is, after all, a teacher, not like Lan Fei who was just a student.”
“Hmph! I don’t care who he is…a five-eyed cock or a three-legged feline. What is Lan Xuan doing recently?” Yunxiao suddenly asked.
“Lan Xuan?” Han Bai’s expression changed as he said bleakly, “You have actually reminded me! Lan Xuan has sent word that he will avenge his brother. We’re in real trouble now!”
“Oh?” Yunxiao chuckled, his eyes focused slightly. “That’s great!”
He had been thinking about Lan Xuan’s five-colored divine air stone all the time. After sending Han Bai off, he carried his heavy sword and headed toward the gravity chamber.
…
At the time Lan Fei was expelled from the academy, an intense examination was taking place on the fourth floor of the Alchemists’ Tower.
Luo Yunshang stared at a giant tomahawk floating in the air with a serious expression. Under the refinement of the flame, it had been calcined to a red color. Waves of scalding heat emanated from it, spreading out in all directions.
Standing in the middle of the room, Yunshang was soaking wet from the heat, but the few men sitting around her seemed unaffected as they watched the transformation of the weapon intently. The heat waves rippled in the air, but they all stopped when they were several feet from the men, as if blocked by an invisible force.
Suddenly, Yunshang spread her fingers and sprinkled out a cloud of golden dust, which fell around the tomahawk like stars and filled the air with a sizzling noise. The color of the weapon turned brighter as soon as it touched the golden dust, but it seemed unstable, making a series of rumbling sounds.
The temperature of the entire room rose to another level. There was a surprise in the eyes of the men in the surroundings while a few of them began to whisper to each other.
