Chapter 17: Verbal Sword
The second stage of the Longteng Academy's exam is finally coming to an end, the top 100 rankings above the purple curtain have no longer changed, Long Yan firmly occupies the top position, Wan Xiaofeng follows, Jiang Yi's points have not increased in the slightest since he disappeared into the void and fled, the ranking has dropped to fourth, and the third place was unexpectedly won by Gao Zhan.
In terms of the forces of the Northern Hades Mansion, there are less than 20 people who have squeezed into the top 100, and the rest have been eliminated. Seeing that the hopes of the children to enter the Longteng Courtyard were disappointed, the close families of the Northern Hell Mansion could no longer control their resentment, and they all asked the patriarchs of the four major families for explanations.
At this moment, Jiang Chen, the Marquis of the Northern Underworld, suddenly appeared in the stands, and the coercion of the Lower Three Realms and the Intermediate Gathering Yuan Realm faintly emanating from his body immediately made these families honestly return to their respective seats.
As soon as Long Dong saw Jiang Chen appear, he immediately complained: "What are you doing, the second dean is about to arrive, how do you let me explain? This is still secondary, in case that kid catches any tricks, don't talk about you, even I can't eat and walk around! This time I will be miserable by you." ”
Jiang Chen smiled slightly when he heard this: "The inspection reassures your lord, even if that kid wins the first place, he will still be unable to escape death after he comes out, and he will not cause trouble to you and the second dean." ”
"What? This is not a joke, that kid has already been approved by Lord Dragon Soul, you can't come openly, otherwise you and I will be doomed. "Longdong urgent.
"Don't worry, my lord, I'm afraid the dragon soul won't be able to protect him this time, please sit down and wait for the show to begin." Jiang Chen continued to smile, and at the same time passed on what he said to Long Dong, and the expression on Long Dong's face immediately relaxed.
As the purple armor guard issued the command of "the hour is coming", a cloud of white light shone on the North Hell Square, and the candidates in the second-stage examination circle were all teleported back, and everyone's attention on the viewing platform was immediately attracted to it, but what followed was one after another exclamations and gasps.
But in the middle of the square, four people were lying on the ground, three were staring at the side, one was facing each other with a gloomy face, and the rest of the people were all scattered and whispered from afar.
Lying on the ground were four of the five tyrants of the Northern Underworld, and in addition to Long Yan and Wan Xiaofeng, there was one more Gao Zhan. It was Jiang Yi who confronted them.
It turned out that as soon as the transmitted white light disappeared, Long Yan and Wan Xiaofeng immediately controlled the four tyrants who were still in a sealed state, Jiang Yi tried to snatch it, but was slowed down by Gao Zhan, who happened to pass by, and finally failed to save the four tyrants, but because of the support of the Northern Hell Marquis behind him at this time, he also raised his courage to put on a decisive posture.
Jiang Chen giggled and walked to the front of the viewing platform and said loudly: "The Red Fire Camp listens to the order and takes down Long Yan who is of different races and disrupts the exam!"
The soldiers of the Red Fire Battalion around the square roared forward, pushed away Wan Xiaofeng and Gao Zhan, controlled Long Yan's hands with upside down, and sealed Zhihai and Dantian at the same time, so that he could not speak, and then carried the four tyrants away and sent them back to the patriarchs of the four major families for treatment.
Long Yan came out of the examination room, originally planning to hold the four tyrants hostage to fight against the Northern Hades Mansion, and take the opportunity to throw out the evidence he had, as long as he attracted the attention of the inspection envoys, even if he couldn't bring down the North Hades Mansion, he could basically ensure his own safety.
It's just that he didn't expect that the inspection envoy had been bought by Jiang Chen, and let Jiang Chen do whatever he wanted, and Jiang Chen didn't want to give him any chance to speak at all, and even risked the fall of the four tyrants to turn his face immediately.
Such decisiveness and viciousness completely disrupted Long Yan's plan, if it weren't for Wan Xiaofeng's desperate efforts to make him not resist, Long Yan would really fight to the death, and in the face of the powerful Northern Underworld Mansion, the result of the fight can be imagined, there is only a dead end.
Jiang Chen saw that Long Yan was restrained, licked his lips with satisfaction and said loudly: "Everyone, there was some accident in this exam, the initiator has been captured, after discussing with the inspection envoy, it was decided that Long Yan would be executed immediately, and the collaborators Wan Xiaofeng and Gao Zhan would deprive them of the test results, and the points would be returned to the original owner, and the admission list would be announced later according to the new ranking, and the Red Fire Camp would implement it." ”
To Jiang Chen's surprise, after his decision was announced, it immediately aroused the criticism of all the candidates in the square, and the square sounded one after another The call of the Northern Hades Mansion to manipulate the exam and eliminate dissidents sounded one after another, asking the North Hades Marquis Mansion to publicize Long Yan's detailed criminal evidence, and some people even shouted that the North Hades Marquis Mansion was the culprit of the traffic alien race, and asked the inspection to make the adults investigate.
Jiang Chen scoffed at these calls, in his opinion, these people were all grass on the wall, and they would all eventually submit to his authority. After snorting coldly, Jiang Chen no longer paid attention to the commotion and discussion in the square, raised his hand to call the patriarchs of the four major families and the five tyrants of the Northern Underworld, and began to discuss the ranking of the final list together with Longdong.
Seeing that Jiang Chen did not have the slightest intention of changing the order, the sergeant of the Red Fire Battalion pushed Long Yan and walked to the side of the Purple Thunder Ding, preparing to carry out the execution order. Long Yan looked at Wan Xiaofeng in a hurry, but seeing Wan Xiaofeng's light face, his heart immediately settled down, for this brother, Long Yan had an inexplicable trust from the beginning, and there was also reason to believe that the Wan family would not sit idly by.
Thinking of the Wan family, Long Yan's heart shook violently, Wan Yuan Pavilion is an existence beyond the national level, if they meddle in this matter, the situation is very likely to be reversed, and at that time, I am afraid that the Northern Hades Mansion will really be finished.
Just as the sergeant of the Red Fire Battalion was about to make a move, suddenly there was a long roar like a dragon's groan in the void, and everyone in the audience was dizzy. With a "and slow", two purple-robed people appeared in the void and fell towards the viewing platform.
One of these two people is white-faced and slightly chubby, with a smile on his face, and the other is golden-faced and clear-skinned, and he does not smile. When Longdong saw it, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face and bowed down and said, "Subordinate Longdong welcomes the two deans to the North Underworld City. Jiang Chen and the patriarchs of the other families also hurriedly bowed down to greet each other.
The white-faced, slightly chubby purple-robed man waved his hand and smiled at the Marquis of the Northern Underworld: "Excuse me, the dean and I are here to hear that there are two peerless geniuses in the Northern Underworld City, but when I first arrived, I saw that you were going to destroy one, and I couldn't bear to stop it for a while, I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to give him a chance to plead his case, if there is no big mistake, don't pursue it, after all, peerless geniuses are rare, how about it?"
Jiang Chen, the Marquis of the Northern Underworld, had already learned from Longdong's knowledge at this time that this white-faced and slightly chubby purple-robed man Long You was the second dean of Longteng Academy who appreciated Jiang Yi very much, and the golden-faced purple-robed man was Long Dehai, the dean of Longteng Academy, but he came for Long Yan.
Hearing Long You's words to defend Long Yan, Jiang Chen couldn't help but be surprised, but just now Long Dong told him to fully cooperate with the second dean and not hesitate, although he didn't know what medicine was sold in the second dean's gourd, Jiang Chen still decided to obey the order first.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face: "Since the second dean has spoken, Xiaohou will obey the order." Then he turned around and said in a cold voice to the audience: "Long Yan, the second dean of the Venerable Longteng Academy instructed that you will be given a chance to defend yourself now, remember, you only have one time, and you will talk about it after thinking about it." ”
Long Yan shook his arm that was cut a little sorely by the sergeant of the Red Fire Battalion, stared at Jiang Chen with a hostile gaze, stepped forward and was just about to speak, when Wan Xiaofeng's voice suddenly came from the sea of knowledge: "Big brother, I received a summons from my father just now, and my family decided to use today's opportunity to have a showdown with the Northern Hell Mansion, and the elder in charge of the Dragon Pavilion has arrived." ”
"In addition, what I want to tell the eldest brother is that the dean of the Longteng Academy also serves as the chief inspector of the Longtian country, and has the right to dispose of any princes below the emperor, and the father and the dean have a good relationship, and they have learned that he is coming for the eldest brother, and the eldest brother can only boldly say, today is the day of the eldest brother's revenge, and it is also the time when your grandfather is wronged. ”
Long Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he instantly made up his mind to fully expose all kinds of evil deeds in the Northern Underworld Mansion. The result of today's favorable situation, Long Yan already felt that he had a great relationship with Wan Xiaofeng, but it was too late to think about it.
After hurriedly throwing a grateful glance at Wan Xiaofeng, Long Yan lowered his head and took a few deep breaths, the resentment and anger that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time could no longer be suppressed, and he raised his head sharply and said loudly: "Lord Dean, Long Yan, the preparatory student of Longteng Academy, gave evidence that Jiang Chen, the Marquis of the Northern Underworld, and the forces of the Hou Mansion colluded with the Shura clan, betrayed the interests of the country, framed the loyalty, bribed the envoys, and manipulated the exams. ”
As soon as these words came out, the entire North Hell Square was silent in an instant, and everyone looked at the viewing platform in unison. On the viewing platform, except for the two deans, whose faces did not change, the patriarchs of the Northern Hell Marquis Mansion and Long Dong were all stunned like clay wood sculptures, and no one thought that Long Yan did not defend himself, but pointed the finger at the Northern Hades.
Jiang Chen sneered and said: "Long Yan, the second dean gave you the opportunity to speak, so that you can whitewash yourself about this exam, not for you to slander Ben Hou, so to divert your attention, in addition to making you guilty, there is no benefit, if you continue to confuse the public, Ben Hou will be punished desperately, and he will also kill you immediately, where to go, you think clearly." ”
Long Yan gave Jiang Chen a contemptuous gaze, and continued to say: "Okay, then as you wish, let's talk about today's exam first, who is the alien race and disrupting the exam." ”
"What I want to ask is, who opened the convenient door for the young island master of Zini Island and the Shura Seven Demons to sneak into the exam? Who did it do with the magic circle and the examination equipment and wanted to cure me to death?"
"Who instructed the cronies and disciples of the Hou Mansion to form two camps, wantonly extort property and eliminate dissent, and vainly try to occupy all the places in the Dragon Teng Academy? I'm afraid that except for you, the Northern Hell Mansion, the four major families, and the Five Tyrants of the Northern Hell Mansion, no one has this energy, right?"
"What nonsense, who can testify to what you are saying, and who has seen it with their own eyes? As for the questions you have said, I have sufficient evidence to prove that you have done it. Jiang Yi was instructed by Jiang Chen, and Yu Longyan's words jumped out and retorted.
Long Yan laughed angrily when he heard this: "I know that you want to jump out, okay, then please tell me about your so-called sufficient evidence, and let all the candidates see how you are trustworthy and refer to the deer as a horse." ”
Jiang Yi sneered a few times, turned around and bowed to the two deans of Longteng Academy, and said: "Lord Dean, this Long Yan is the righteous grandson of the former city lord Jiang Sheng, Jiang Sheng colluded with the Shura clansmen, so that the previous battle of Zini Island failed, and it is not difficult to install a few Shura clan masters to assist Long Yan in the exam. ”
"I and some righteous candidates found out in the second stage of the exam, and we were about to find an opportunity to get rid of the Shura people, but Long Yan found out and first encouraged other candidates to join forces against us, so that we suffered heavy losses. ”
"When the five of us finally found the Shura people and were about to kill them all, Long Yan and that Wan Xiaofeng suddenly appeared in a sneak attack, not only seriously injuring us and others, but also taking away the bodies and belongings of the Shura people, intending to destroy the evidence. ”
"As for who extorted the property, just search Long Yan's body to see whose property everyone is extorted!"
Jiang Yi ended his speech with a beautiful rhetorical question, and bowed to the two deans again.
The silent square was in a commotion again, and some candidates who did not know the truth, secretly instigated by the children of the close forces of the Northern Underworld Mansion, began to believe what Jiang Yi said, and more and more people turned their suspicious eyes to Long Yan, and the situation began to develop in a direction unfavorable to Long Yan.
After hearing this, the second dean Long You put away his smile and asked Long Yan solemnly: "Is this really the case? I can't imagine that a peerless genius can do such a despicable thing, this is too disappointing, how can you let me protect you again? The dean was originally very optimistic about you, where did you put the dean? Alas......"
Long Yan just wanted to explain, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the second dean Long You: "You don't have to explain anything, according to what Jiang Yi said, if physical evidence is found on you, then no one will be able to save you." ”
Jiang Chen saw the second dean say this, and suddenly realized that the second dean was hiding a knife in his smile, and he was protecting Long Yan, but in fact, he wanted to sit on the evidence and put it to death, and at the same time, he also blocked the dean's mouth, and it seemed that he was thinking about the dean.
Glancing at the dean, seeing that Long Dehai was expressionless and noncommittal, Jiang Chen put his heart at ease, and single-handedly designated Long Yan to order: "The Red Fire Camp searches for him, and the one named Wan Xiaofeng, search together, if you dare to resist, kill him on the spot!"
As soon as the words fell, an old voice sounded: "I think who dares to touch my children of the Wan family? ”
Jiang Chen followed the prestige, but when he saw an old man in gray robes who was as thin as a skeleton appear in front of Long Yan and Wan Xiaofeng, he lightly knocked all the Red Fire Battalion sergeants who surrounded him to search his body to the ground, and then clasped his hands to his chest and looked up at the sky silently.
Wanyuan Pavilion, Jiang Chen is very familiar with it, over the years, he has been under the secret order of the Shura clan, and has been looking for trouble with it, wanting to squeeze this well-informed institution out of the Northern Underworld City, in case it collects unfavorable news from the Northern Underworld Mansion, but the background of this Wanyuan Pavilion is really strong, Jiang Chenming's dark means have been exhausted, and they have failed to achieve their goals, and they have suffered a lot of secret losses on several occasions.
Today, this Wan Xiaofeng is actually a child of the Wan family, which makes Jiang Chen's head big for a while, but the tough posture has been put on, and he must not lose his momentum, otherwise there is the possibility of abandoning his previous efforts, plus now that he has made a breakthrough in cultivation, he also has the capital to fight against Wanyuan Pavilion, and it is a big deal to tear the face and fight a big battle.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen didn't hesitate, and shouted: "Who are you, dare to pretend to be the person of Wanyuan Pavilion, Wanyuan Pavilion doesn't ask the world to know everything, have you lived enough?"
"Who am I, you don't deserve to ask!" The thin old man replied casually and shouted to the sky: "Zilong, you old thing, seeing them bully my juniors, they only care about the excitement, it's too unbelievable!"
Everyone also looked to the sky with the eyes of the thin old man, but when they saw the ripples in the void flashing, an old man in a purple robe walked out with a smile. All the candidates who took the second-stage exam in the square exclaimed in unison when they saw it: Purple Thunder Dragon Soul!
