124: This is a misunderstanding

Time passed bit by bit.

The scene appeared somewhat strange.

On Shen Xi's side, after helping Liu Piaoling recover from his injuries, the Two People were still laughing and talking.

However, on Xu Zhongtian's side, he was screaming in agony, like a pig being slaughtered.

One side was Heaven, the other Hell, a stark contrast.

Soon, one hour was about to pass.

Xu Zhongtian's life was also coming to an end.

Just then, an angry roar rang out.

"Who dares to act so presumptuously in Zhu Feng City!"

Accompanied by the angry roar, an old man with a gloomy Face appeared before Shen Xi and the Two People.

Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, Liu Piaoling was startled and quickly bowed: "Vice-Dean!"

The person who arrived was one of the Vice-Deans of the Senate.

"Liu Piaoling, get out of my sight. This has nothing to do with you. These two scoundrels dared to lay a murderous hand on a person from the Senate and must pay the price."

The Vice-Dean glanced at Xu Zhongtian, who had already died, and said furiously.

He didn't care who was right or wrong in this matter, or who initiated it.

He only knew that Xu Zhongtian was a person from the Senate.

These two scoundrels in front of him had killed Xu Zhongtian.

If Liu Piaoling hadn't also been from the Senate, the Vice-Dean wouldn't have let him off either.

"Vice-Dean, this matter was Xu Zhongtian's own doing, it was he..."

Liu Piaoling intended to explain what happened.

But before he could finish, the Vice-Dean interrupted him: "If Xu Zhongtian made a mistake, our Senate will punish him ourselves. It's not up to these two to act. What are they!"

Helping relatives, not reason.

The Vice-Dean perfectly illustrated this saying.

As he spoke, he released the Qi of the Later Heaven Transformation Realm.

This fellow is very troublesome!

Shen Xi and Liu Yiyi exchanged glances, understanding each other's thoughts.

Although the Vice-Dean was only in the Houtian Huajin Realm, his combat power was definitely far more than that.

Even if he couldn't compare to the Xiantian Realm, he was only a step away.

The Vice-Dean could be called a Half-step Xiantian.

With this kind of combat power, Shen Xi and Liu Yiyi were not his opponents.

"What a Senate Vice-Dean, condemning us without asking any questions."

Shen Xi scoffed.

"He's just a mere Senate Vice-Dean, yet he dares to target me?"

Liu Yiyi was even more arrogant.

"Hmph! You two don't even look at your own status, yet you dare to talk back to this old man? Let me tell you plainly, even if you were killed by Xu Zhongtian, you would deserve it. Who told you to be insignificant ants? Even if you are Geniuses, so what? You're not even fit to carry shoes for a Senator of the Senate!"

The Vice-Dean's attitude was very clear.

What he cared about was not strength at all.

No matter how astonishing Shen Xi and Liu Yiyi's performance was, being able to kill Xu Zhongtian at an age under twenty, the Vice-Dean didn't take it to heart.

He only cared about status and position.

Xu Zhongtian was a Senator, so he was high and mighty.

Shen Xi and the Two People were just ordinary people, so even if they were killed, they deserved it.

And for the Two People to dare to kill Xu Zhongtian in return, that was rebellion!

"Haha, so you're saying you won't let this go and will definitely demand an explanation for Xu Zhongtian?"

Shen Xi was angered to laughter. This was the first time he had directly felt the so-called nobility's contempt for ordinary people.

"That's right, blame yourselves for being ants!"

The Vice-Dean made a move to strike.

"If you're not afraid of Zhu Feng City's wrath, then go ahead and attack me."

Hearing this, the Vice-Dean stopped his movements.

Zhu Feng City?

What does this have to do with Zhu Feng City?

The next second, Shen Xi pulled out a token from his embrace: "I am an Honorary cadre of Zhu Feng City. If you attack me, you are declaring war on Zhu Feng City!"

"Didn't you keep saying that I was an ant and had no right to attack Xu Zhongtian?"

"I'd like to ask you, does an Honorary cadre have the right?"

"I also want to ask you, an Honorary cadre from Zhu Feng City came to the Twenty-eighth City and was actually attacked by a Senator from the Twenty-eighth City. Is this the hospitality of the Twenty-eighth City?"

Every word was like an invisible dagger, stabbing into the Vice-Dean's heart.

The Vice-Dean dared not act.

Even with his status, he dared not bear the charge of instigating a battle between two cities.

And his rhetoric was even more of a joke.

Earlier, he claimed that Shen Xi was an ant, had no right to attack Xu Zhongtian, and even if he died, it would be in vain.

But Shen Xi, with a flick of his hand, revealed himself as an Honorary cadre. This status was not lower than a Senator, so how could he still say he had no right?

The Vice-Dean became hesitant.

If he continued to get entangled in this issue, it would only make the situation more serious.

If Shen Xi were just an ordinary person, he could kill him as he pleased.

But the other party was an Honorary cadre of Zhu Feng City, and the nature of the matter was completely different.

That's right!

Although this matter was caused by Shen Xi, it was not he who killed Xu Zhongtian, but that woman.

The Vice-Dean quickly reacted and aimed his spearhead at Liu Yiyi: "You killed Xu Zhongtian, you must pay a blood debt!"

Liu Yiyi smiled coldly: "Then you can go ahead and attack me, but before you do, you must be prepared to pay the price."

"Haha, what price do I need to pay for killing an ant!" The Vice-Dean laughed wildly, as if he wanted to reclaim all the Face he had lost on Shen Xi.

But the next second, he couldn't laugh anymore.

On the contrary, his expression turned to fear.

He saw a ring appear in Liu Yiyi's hand.

The Materials of the ring were ordinary, but the trace of Qi it contained was awe-inspiring.

In the Vice-Dean's eyes, that Qi seemed to materialize, turning into a special mark.

"You, you are..."

The Vice-Dean instantly discerned Liu Yiyi's identity.

This mark could only be possessed by people from that power.

This girl in front of him actually came from that power?

Realizing this, the Vice-Dean's unease far exceeded that of learning Shen Xi was an Honorary cadre.

No, this was no longer unease, but fear!

"Come on! Kill me! I'm looking forward to you killing me!"

Liu Yiyi provoked.

But how could the Vice-Dean dare?

If he really attacked Liu Yiyi, even if she only lost a single strand of hair, let alone him, even all the nobles of the entire Twenty-eighth City would Face utter disaster.

"This, this is a misunderstanding."

The Vice-Dean said with a difficult bitter smile.

If, upon learning Shen Xi's identity, he thought of ignoring Shen Xi to downplay the matter and resolve it, then upon learning Liu Yiyi's identity, his first reaction was to beg for mercy, and he absolutely had to appease the anger of this young lady.

"Don't! I still prefer your arrogant and domineering appearance from before. That was no misunderstanding."

Liu Yiyi insisted.

She had never been bullied like this before. Today, first encountering the Xu family, father and son, and then the Vice-Dean, had already made her furious.
