Chapter 231: Protecting One's Own
"Therefore, I have never truly betrayed any member of your squad."
Yun Fusang then looked at Xu Li, narrowing her eyes: "As the team leader, you failed to discipline your team members and instead accused me of being ungrateful."
"My original intention was to hand over the surveillance crystal to the elders privately, but you insisted on making it public. So don't blame me for severing all ties!"
"I hope the two elders can handle this matter fairly for me!"
Yun Fusang bowed to the Second Elder and the Third Elder, his eyes filled with fearlessness.
The Third Elder nodded and said solemnly, "I will definitely handle this for you, you can rest assured."
Upon seeing this, Xu Li's expression suddenly changed.
The Third Elder is known throughout the academy for his impartiality and integrity. Now that Yun Fusang has released the surveillance crystal, the evidence is irrefutable, and he will certainly not let them off easily!
It's over... His academic career, his training squad, it's all over!
Yun Fusang presented the monitoring crystal to the Third Elder with both hands, and then looked at the Second Elder: "In addition, I hope that the Second Elder can apologize to Ye Fei."
The second elder frowned, his face displeased: "Why should I apologize?"
"Ye Fei used her spiritual energy to suppress Xu Li just now because Xu Li attacked me," Yun Fusang stated calmly. "If it weren't for Ye Fei, Xu Li would probably have already pulled me away, and no one knows what would have happened afterward."
"Second Elder, you attacked without understanding the situation and used your aura to harm Ye Fei. If Li hadn't blocked your aura for Ye Fei, you should know better than me what the consequences would have been."
Yun Fusang's words were anything but polite, which enraged the Second Elder to the point of utter fury!
There was no explicit accusation in the words, but every word spoken was accusatory!
This is outrageous...it really is outrageous!
Even a few students dared to criticize him in front of so many people and demand an apology!
How can he possibly save face like this!
"What's all the commotion about?"
A clear, melodious female voice rang out, and the Seventh Elder, dressed in a bright red robe, slowly walked towards them.
The Second Elder gritted his teeth. Why did that seventh brother's wife have to join in the fun too?!
The Seventh Elder glanced at the Second Elder with a cool expression. Before the Second Elder could reply, he looked around at the students and said with a smile, "There are many people here today, so I'll just say it directly—Xiao Li is my disciple, and Xiao Fei'er is my adopted sister. No matter who it is, disrespecting them is disrespecting me, the Seventh Elder."
"I've always been protective of my own, and I'll definitely protect my own children. If anyone dares to go around me and bully Xiao Li and Xiao Fei'er, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
The Seventh Elder spoke the last sentence while staring at the Second Elder.
Silent smoke rose from the scene, and even the breeze seemed incredibly cold at that moment.
The second elder clenched his fist, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.
As arrogant as the Second Elder is, there's no way he'd apologize. He'd never lower himself to apologize to a little girl like her!
The Third Elder stared at the Second Elder's departing figure, narrowed his eyes, and then swept his gaze sharply over the surrounding students: "So you don't need to cultivate anymore? Disperse!"
The students quickly dispersed in a swarm.
The Third Elder sighed silently, turning his gaze to the Seventh Elder. For the first time, he saw a hint of helplessness on the stern face of the elder: "Seventh Elder, you and the Second Elder..."
