64: Chapter 62 Attitude

As Lin Yan and Zhang Lexuan landed back in the central area of the explosion, Teacher Zhou Yi's deranged voice suddenly echoed over from not far away.

"Hehehe... Teacher Fan Yu... Why aren't you speaking..."

"Didn't you say you wanted to protect me... Get up..."

"Get up... Let's go kill him together... Let's kill that little bastard together..."

Looking at this scene, Lin Yan's eyes were indifferent, without a single ripple.

Just reaping what one has sown!

However—even if she was crazy, she still had to die!

He certainly didn't have the bad habit of leaving loose ends!

Sensing that the Soul Power within his body had slowly recovered a little, Lin Yan raised his foot and was about to step forward to send Teacher Zhou Yi on her final journey, when unexpectedly, someone else was coming from the distant horizon.

Three streaks of light pierced through the sky at an extremely fast speed, and in the blink of an eye, they had already arrived close to Lin Yan and the other.

As the lights dispersed, three figures slowly emerged.

The leading person was dressed in a moon-white robe with an extraordinary demeanor, and he was none other than Principal Yan Shaozhe of the Shrek Martial Soul Department.

As for the other two who came with him, they were Vice Dean Qian Duoduo of the Soul Tool Department and Dean Xian Liner of the Soul Tool Department respectively.

Regarding the arrival of Principal Yan Shaozhe and the others, Lin Yan was not overly surprised.

After all, this forest was not far from Shrek City, and the heaven-shaking explosion roar and energy fluctuations just now naturally drew people to investigate.

The three people's gazes first swept across the devastated, charred battlefield, then passed over the half-charred corpse beside the huge deep pit as well as the demon-like deranged Teacher Zhou Yi, and finally fell upon Lin Yan and Zhang Lexuan.

"Lexuan, Lin Yan, what on earth is going on here?"

Principal Yan Shaozhe spoke first in a low voice, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Teacher Zhou Yi and that charred corpse with tightly locked brows.

Seeing this scene and sensing the lingering scorching aura around, although he already had some guesses, he still found it somewhat hard to believe.

Zhang Lexuan took a deep breath, stepped forward, and narrated the whole story from beginning to end.

From Teacher Zhou Yi hiring assassins to murder Lin Yan, to Lin Yan counter-killing the assassins and unearthing the mastermind, to Teacher Fan Yu shielding and protecting him with verbal threats, and finally Lin Yan making a move to slaughter him...

Throughout the entire process, she did not exaggerate or deliberately conceal anything, but merely objectively stated all the facts.

As Zhang Lexuan's voice fell, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

On the faces of Principal Yan Shaozhe and the other two, undisguised looks of shock all emerged.

Teacher Fan Yu, an eighth-rank Soul Engineer at the Spirit Douluo level... just died like this?

And he actually died in the hands of a Spirit Ancestor?!

Although it sounded like there were some factors of a sneak attack involved, this wasn't behaving like a Spirit Master at all!

A Spirit Ancestor blowing up a Spirit Douluo with a single strike... Even if the Sea God came, it couldn't be done!

Although it was hard to believe rationally, the vast expanse of scorched earth before them, that charred corpse, and the mad Teacher Zhou Yi on the side were all silently telling the truth of this matter.

Principal Yan Shaozhe's eyes flickered slightly. Although ripples surged in his heart—shock, joy, suspicion, and even a bit of... jealousy—there was uniquely no dissatisfaction.

"Heh! Teacher Fan Yu?!"

Allowing Teacher Zhou Yi to hire murderers and harm the academy's Genius, he deserved to die!

Anyway, Teacher Fan Yu was a person from the Soul Tool Department; since he died, he died, and his death was even quite timely.

In recent years, the Soul Tool Department had developed rapidly. Now that Teacher Fan Yu was dead, it was equivalent to the Soul Tool Department losing an arm. Let's see how they would compete with the Martial Soul Department in the future!

Although thinking this way in his heart, Principal Yan Shaozhe still revealed a timely look of sorrow on his face, sighing softly: "I never expected... that such a thing would happen."

"Teacher Zhou Yi and Teacher Fan Yu were already greatly at fault to begin with, and now they still refuse to repent, attempting to commit murder. Falling to this state today can also be considered bringing it upon themselves."

His tone sounded quite regretful, but the perfunctoriness in the depths of his eyes could not fool someone with a discerning eye.

Vice Dean Qian Duoduo on the side, as his "old friend" who understood him best, saw Principal Yan Shaozhe's posture and instantly understood his thoughts, his expression instantly becoming somewhat ugly.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back down.

Heartbroken?

Of course heartbroken!

That was an eighth-rank Soul Engineer! There were only three in all of Shrek!

But...

Vice Dean Qian Duoduo's gaze involuntarily fell upon Lin Yan.

Thinking of his age, thinking of his talent and strength, and thinking of his equally monstrous talent on spirit tools.

In the end, he still sighed dejectedly, smiling bitterly as he followed Principal Yan Shaozhe's words: "Sigh... Teacher Fan Yu, you brought this upon yourself... Asking for it..."

However, right at this moment, Dean Xian Liner on the side didn't know which nerve was misfiring, as she frowned and questioned: "Even if Teacher Fan Yu and Teacher Zhou Yi did something wrong, no matter what, they are still teachers of Shrek."

"According to the academy's rules, they should rightfully be handed over to the academy for disposal—Lin Yan, how could you kill someone on your own authority?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene instantly stiffened.

Principal Yan Shaozhe and Vice Dean Qian Duoduo subconsciously looked toward Dean Xian Liner, their eyes unconsciously carrying a bit of speechlessness.

What kind of act was this again? Could she use her brain when speaking?

What time was it already, and she was still saying such words?

Leaving aside the fact that this matter was originally Teacher Zhou Yi and Teacher Fan Yu courting death themselves, just speaking of Lin Yan's talent, what "academy rules" were you talking about now?

Were you afraid that his sense of belonging to the academy was too strong, is that it?

Upon hearing Dean Xian Liner's words, Teacher Zhou Yi, who was still deranged and muttering, seemed as if she had suddenly grasped a lifesaving straw!

She abruptly raised her head, her scattered hair sticking to her blood-stained face, her gaze frantic and paranoid.

"Dean Xian! Dean Xian, you must uphold justice for me!!"

Teacher Zhou Yi stumbled and crawled toward Dean Xian Liner's direction, her voice sharp and piercing, "It's Lin Yan! He killed Teacher Fan Yu! He even wants to kill me!"

"Hurry and execute him! Quickly execute this little bastard! Avenge Teacher Fan Yu!!"

While crying and shouting, she reached out toward Dean Xian Liner's direction, looking completely like a mad demon.

Seeing this, Dean Xian Liner frowned, the look of disgust on her face not hidden in the slightest.

And just as she wanted to open her mouth—

"Hum—!"

A vast, domineering, and terrifying pressure suddenly erupted from Lin Yan's body, surging toward Teacher Zhou Yi.

"Shut up!"

In an instant, Teacher Zhou Yi's voice came to an abrupt halt!

She was like being choked by an invisible giant hand, her mouth wide open, yet she couldn't emit a single sound!

Not only that, but her legs also went soft, and with a "thud," she knelt on the ground once more, trembling all over, not even daring to raise her head—that was fear and submission originating from the Soul!

Upon seeing this scene, in the hearts of Principal Yan Shaozhe and the other two, monstrous waves instantly surged up once again!

This aura...

This feeling...

Why is it so similar to...

Principal Yan Shaozhe abruptly raised his head, staring fixedly at Lin Yan, and cried out in shock: "Reign Over the World?!!"

"Is this really... Elder Mu's Reign Over the World?!"

Obtaining Principal Yan Shaozhe's confirmation, Vice Dean Qian Duoduo's small eyes instantly widened into circles.

Lin Yan... when did he learn Reign Over the World?!

Dean Xian Liner also wore a look of astonishment, her eyes staring fixedly at Lin Yan, a tempest raging in her heart.

The three of them looked at each other, both seeing deep shock and doubt in each other's eyes.

Elder Mu... Teacher... did he take another Personal Disciple?

That's not right... If he really took a Personal Disciple, how could they not have heard any news at all?

For a time, countless thoughts flashed through the minds of the three people.

As for Lin Yan, it was as if he hadn't seen their reactions at all.

Slowly withdrawing the pressure of Emperor Descends Upon the World, he looked indifferently at Dean Xian Liner, his voice calm, yet carrying an unquestionable sharpness.
