974: Stand in line and pit Muyun
"Captain, what is this?!" Liangcai Sword picked up a document from the ground curiously, and then clearly saw the information about Du Xingchen joining the Divine Hall!
Turning to look at Du Xingchen, his face held a look of disbelief.
Wen Xiucheng, Qing Youyu, and Sun Yingying, his three teammates, also saw the contents of this document, and each of them felt as if their worldview was about to collapse.
In response, Du Xingchen frowned.
Looking at the scattered documents on the ground, he then turned his gaze towards Moyun in front, who seemed to have already secured victory in one move, and spoke unhurriedly, "That's right, I am an undercover agent arranged by the Divine Hall."
"What?!"
"Whoa!"
The few teammates beside Du Xingchen widened their eyes, and the surrounding onlookers burst into exclamations.
Moyun's lips curved into a smile.
It was an expression of victory.
"But..." Just as everyone was showing their shock, Du Xingchen's tone shifted, causing everyone to hold their breath.
"I haven't done anything for the Divine Hall at all!"
After saying this seemingly unconvincing sentence, Du Xingchen took a deep breath, as if recalling some unpleasant past, "My Father was killed by people from the Divine Hall. I saw it clearly from under the bed at that time!"
"My hatred for the Divine Hall can only be repaid with the blood of the Divine Hall!"
"Tell me, in this situation, would I still work for the Divine Hall?!"
After saying this, a suppressed anger also surged onto Du Xingchen's face, anger towards the Divine Hall.
A brief silence also fell over the surroundings.
"Heh, you say your Father was killed by the Divine Hall just because you say so? I can come up with a hundred such fabricated excuses in a day!" Moyun sneered.
The onlookers nodded in agreement.
Things had reached this point, evidence had appeared, and Du Xingchen had admitted he was an undercover agent. Didn't work for the Divine Hall? Who would believe that?
"I believe Captain! If he says he didn't really work for the Divine Hall to harm us, then he really didn't!" Sun Yingying suddenly spoke out from the crowd.
After her voice fell, Liangcai Sword glanced at Du Xingchen, then clenched his fist slightly and stepped forward, "I also believe Captain."
At the same time as Liangcai Sword expressed his stance, Wen Xiucheng also recalled Du Xingchen's efforts for him these past few days, gritted his teeth, and without much hesitation, walked over to confront Moyun directly, "We know what kind of person Xingchen is better than you do!"
"Hopeless! You are simply hopeless!" Moyun looked at the scene before him, his face red with anger, and veins bulging on his forehead like earthworms, "The facts are right in front of you, and you actually don't believe what you see?!"
"That itself is not the truth!" Du Xingchen interrupted Moyun and turned to the Dean, who was leaning on a cane, "Dean, the people who killed my Father were from the Divine Hall, right? You told me that when you saved me back then!"
When this question was asked, Dean Eboer's old face stiffened.
However, when he answered, he nodded without much hesitation, "That's right, the ones who harmed your Father were people from the Divine Hall!"
Speaking of this, Eboer was also a little puzzled.
From this perspective, it was indeed impossible for Du Xingchen to be on the same side as the Divine Hall.
After all, his operation of impersonating the Divine Hall was seamless; this kid couldn't possibly have detected it.
And under his intentional and unintentional guidance over the years, Du Xingchen's hatred for the Divine Hall would only deepen, thus further eliminating the possibility of the other party working for the Divine Hall.
"Dean?!" Moyun, who was nearby, widened his eyes upon hearing the Dean's answer, feeling betrayed.
"He does know that his Father was killed by someone from the Divine Hall," Eboer said to Moyun.
This statement seemed like the truth, but in reality, it was also Eboer covering up his own crimes.
"Du Xingchen, since your Father was killed by the Divine Hall, there are many ways for you to take revenge. Why did you have to join the Divine Hall?!"
Moyun's anger soared from the Dean's betrayal, and with a relatively rational mind, he questioned him again.
"Because I discovered early on that there was a real Divine Hall undercover agent in our team!" As Du Xingchen spoke, his gaze fell upon Moyun.
He, who was originally on the defensive, directly reversed the roles of offense and defense with this sentence!
"In order to expose that undercover agent and prevent him from destroying the friendship between us, I took the risk of joining the Divine Hall to stop him."
"Another Divine Hall undercover agent?!" The crowd was in an uproar again.
Wen Xiucheng and the others nearby also looked at each other in surprise.
For a moment, the atmosphere of a spy thriller permeated this area.
Following Du Xingchen's words and his gaze, everyone's eyes unconsciously fell on Moyun!
"You mean, Moyun is the real Divine Hall undercover agent?" The white-haired Dean, leaning on his cane, asked in a hoarse voice.
"Dean," Du Xingchen looked at Eboer sincerely, "When we went to the Outer Domain this time, there were many changes and dangers along the way. I don't know if Moyun was the one who caused us danger, but we can be sure that after Moyun was driven away by us, we basically didn't experience any danger or changes!"
"Du Xingchen, stop slandering me! All of that was something you directed and acted yourself, and you're still pretending to be innocent and framing me here!" Moyun listened from the side, already somewhat exasperated.
"Xingchen is telling the truth!" Liangcai Sword said from the side, "After you left, our team not only had no danger, but even our Cultivation speed increased by who knows how many times!"
"When you were here, we went all the way to Jiangshan City, not only met a Saint Master blocking the way in the Jiaomang Mountain Range, but also almost made enemies with the guards of Jiangshan City, and even encountered an ambush by people from the Demon Hall!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Sun Yingying nodded repeatedly, "At that time, Moyun was right next to the people from the Demon Hall! I even heard the people from the Demon Hall trying to recruit him!"
These words made Moyun's face turn pale then red.
What made him even more disheartened was that these two teammates who usually supported him were now completely siding with Du Xingchen!
"There's one more thing," Du Xingchen looked at the papers on the ground, "These documents about me joining the Divine Hall should be confidential files within the Divine Hall, after all, they are about an undercover agent."
"However, Moyun was able to obtain them..."
After speaking, Du Xingchen looked at the Son of Destiny in front, "Moyun, can you tell me how you obtained these?"
This sentence instantly opened up everyone's train of thought.
"Moyun, are you perhaps the real Divine Hall undercover agent?! It must be! Only people from the Divine Hall could obtain those documents about Xingchen!" Wen Xiucheng first asked, and before he finished speaking, it turned into an affirmative statement.
"Nonsense! I have nothing to do with the Divine Hall, someone else gave this to me!" How could Moyun bear such a fabricated name? He immediately retorted, his ragged breathing indicating his agitated anger.
He clearly had the key evidence to prove that Du Xingchen was an undercover agent, so why did this evidence turn into something that would punish him?!
"Someone else gave it to you? The only one who could give you this document would be a high-level member of the Divine Hall. So you have such a close relationship with the high-level members of the Divine Hall. You say you have nothing to do with the Divine Hall... Who would believe that?" Du Xingchen seized that crucial point, held on tightly, and directly tore open a huge gap!
"I..." Moyun was speechless for a moment.
In fact, from the moment he obtained that undercover document about Du Xingchen, he had already speculated about the power the Goddess was in.
At this moment, he really couldn't refute it.
He had never imagined that things would develop to this point.
Originally, all of this should have ended the moment Du Xingchen admitted he was an undercover agent!
However, the reality was that the trump card document he produced, while revealing the other party's undercover identity, had absolutely no effect!
Those teammates, one by one, still stood firmly and blindly by Du Xingchen's side!
These people were simply unwilling to think carefully about the loopholes in Du Xingchen's words. Instead, they stood united against him, standing by Du Xingchen's side!
They didn't look at the evidence at all, only at Du Xingchen!
"Moyun wouldn't be that kind of person, I know him." Dean Eboer was silent for a while, and finally made this statement, completely setting the tone.
Du Xingchen was not surprised by this answer, but the people around him expressed their inability to understand.
"Since that's the case, Dean, you choose," Du Xingchen looked at Eboer, "Either Moyun gets out, or I get out."
Facing this question, Eboer smiled and shook his head.
Between Du Xingchen and Moyun, he already had an answer.
How could a bottom-ranked Student like Du Xingchen, who could be replaced at any time, compare to a Student like Moyun, who could grow into a Captain?
Just as Eboer was about to point at Du Xingchen and tell him to leave, he suddenly saw Wen Xiucheng standing next to Du Xingchen step forward, "Dean, if you drive Xingchen away, I won't stay either."
"Me too, where Captain is, I am." Liangcai Sword stood on the other side.
And Qing Youyu and Sun Yingying, in silence, also stepped forward one after another, expressing their stance.
Looking at the scene where one option suddenly turned into five people, Eboer's eyelids twitched.
"How lively, is Yunyong Academy holding a big meeting today?" Suddenly, a sweet voice emerged from behind the crowd, interrupting the increasingly stifling atmosphere.
Many people turned their heads to look, and their hearts trembled slightly.
"It's the Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family!"
"It's actually the Royal Family's Heaven's Chosen! Why are they here at our Academy?!"
As they spoke, the students and onlookers on the periphery moved back, creating a space.
"Qingxie Dasheng, it's fortunate to meet you." Dean Eboer saw the arrivals, let out a sigh of relief, and walked forward with a gentle tone.
"Yunyu Dasheng, I've long admired you." Miao Gouer glanced at Eboer, then looked towards Du Xingchen and said, "We're here to find this Child, I hope we're not disturbing you?"
"Hehehe, no disturbance, no disturbance." Eboer waved his hands repeatedly. Although he didn't know why the other party was looking for Du Xingchen and the others, judging by the situation, it shouldn't be anything serious.
"Du Xingchen? Is that your name?" Miao Gouer, the leader, slowly opened her red lips and spoke to Du Xingchen.
"Senior, are you here to get that reward for your Students?" Du Xingchen was neither servile nor overbearing, and directly got to the point.
They had only been back at the Academy for such a short time, and these people had already appeared.
They must have been waiting here early on.
"Are you ready?" Miao Gouer smiled and nodded, asking Du Xingchen at the same time.
The gains from the Jiaolong Valley should have been received early on.
But due to Jiangshan, that newly promoted Supreme guy in Jiangshan City, she could only bring her Students to Yunyong Academy to get the items according to the agreement.
Waiting for so many days had also worn down their patience considerably.
Fortunately, seeing how this young Child proactively brought up the matter now, he seemed to understand the rules.
"I'm ready, but the person in charge of finances in our team is not cooperating." As Du Xingchen nodded, he looked at Moyun.
"Hmm? What do you mean? You're not going back on your word, are you?" In the Royal Family Heaven's Chosen team, the Huang Fa Nü member questioned with a cold tone.
"Of course we won't go back on our word. You have the Royal Family backing you, how could we dare to deceive and offend you in such a matter." Du Xingchen emphasized his trustworthiness, and after seeing that these people's emotions had calmed down, he explained again, "Simply put, all the good things we got from the God's Inheritance are on one of our teammates. We originally agreed to have that teammate hand over the items to you, but that teammate is unwilling."
"Unwilling?" Miao Gouer sneered, "I'm afraid it's not you who instructed him to refuse, is it?"
"Senior, you've wronged me, there's absolutely no such thing!"
"Then tell me, which teammate is carrying all your gains?"
"Him!" Du Xingchen pointed at Moyun, whose left eyelid was twitching.
