Chapter 2814 - 2818: Vice Dean Cloud Cheats

"Me! Me! How is this possible!"

Yun Lan simply couldn’t believe this kind of thing was actually true.

However, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ’s expression looked even uglier, as if something else had also been affected by this sudden change, causing a flaw to appear in one of his plans, which made him extremely displeased.

He suddenly struck, kicking Yun Lan. Yun Lan was kicked on the spot until he spat blood, collapsing to the ground and staring at Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ in terror.

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ kept attacking, beating Yun Lan until he was almost half-dead before the First Elder of the Sect and the others pretended to step in and persuade him to stop.

"Sect Master, Yun Lan slandering you is a grave crime, but now he’s already half-dead. Shouldn’t you forgive him?"

The First Elder of the Sect came forward and said.

"Yes, Sect Master, we hope you can be merciful. Yun Lan is, after all, our Demon Dragon Sect’s number one genius, second only to Chen Cangxiong."

An Elder also stepped out and said.

This move of Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ’s was played beautifully. By taking the initiative to attack Yun Lan, he could naturally control the severity. Although Yun Lan was still miserable, he wouldn’t die.

He could also win most of the upper echelon’s sympathy.

Although Chen Buyi very much wanted to kill Yun Lan on the spot, at this moment he had no way to do so.

He was, after all, the Sect Master, not like Ling Xiao who could act as he pleased.

"Where’s the Fire Dragon Brew?"

Chen Buyi looked at Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ and asked.

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ casually took out a jar of Fire Dragon Brew from his Storage Ring and tossed it to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao caught it, chuckled, and said, "Vice Dean Cloud, you exhausted every trick today to shield that Yun Lan, yet you still couldn’t stop that piece of trash from courting death himself.

It’d be better if you disciplined him more strictly, otherwise problems will keep popping up."

"Hmph!"

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ snorted coldly. At this point he already hated Ling Xiao to the bone, but with Chen Buyi and Xiao Mu Yu both present, even if he wanted to kill Ling Xiao, he simply had no chance.

"Alright, since this matter is over, next, Mu Qinɡ, take out the Magic Crystal Stones you obtained."

Chen Buyi looked at Mu Qinɡ and said.

Although he hadn’t managed to kill Yun Lan, in that state Yun Lan would need at least one or two months of rest to recover.

In such a long time, Ling Xiao’s strength would probably have already surpassed him.

And he’d also gotten his hands on the Fire Dragon Brew that Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ had always been reluctant to bring out. This whole affair was actually quite a good bargain.

So there was no need to keep dwelling on it.

Mu Qinɡ hesitated for a moment, then finally only took out four hundred Magic Crystal Stones.

Because earlier she’d heard Ling Xiao say he had five hundred Magic Crystal Stones, she didn’t want to cause trouble for Ling Xiao.

She’d just treat it as repaying Ling Xiao’s life-saving grace.

"Because of Yun Lan’s attack, I didn’t have much time to search for Magic Crystal Stones, and then later the Magic Sea Beast Emperor appeared, so I had even less time. In total I only managed to get this much."

Mu Qinɡ explained.

"That’s already very good. So far, you’ve obtained the most Magic Crystal Stones."

Chen Buyi said with a smile.

"Ling Xiao, you’re the last one. Take out your Magic Crystal Stones and let everyone have a look."

After Mu Qinɡ stepped down, Ling Xiao then looked toward Lingxiao.

"Hold it!"

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ suddenly said, "Sect Master, Yun Lan may have committed a capital crime, but he did participate in the trial. We can’t just exclude him, can we?"

"With such heavy crimes on him, what right does he have to be in the trial rankings?"

Chen Buyi said coldly.

"Master, since they want to be ranked, just give him the opportunity, otherwise people might be unconvinced.

Since I intend to take first place, I’m going to make everyone submit wholeheartedly!"

Ling Xiao knew that if Chen Buyi and Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ kept bickering like this, they’d waste all their time on it.

Might as well yield a little here; after all, Yun Lan could not possibly have obtained more Magic Crystal Stones than he had.

"Fine, since you’ve said so, as your master I can let them have this much. Yun Lan, take out your Magic Crystal Stones!"

Chen Buyi shouted sternly.

Yun Lan himself could no longer move.

Originally, even so, they could have just sent any Disciple over to take Yun Lan’s Storage Ring and pull out the Magic Crystal Stones.

Unexpectedly, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ actually went himself to take the Storage Ring.

"Not good, that old bastard’s going to cheat!"

In that instant, Ling Xiao felt something was wrong.

His Tai Chi Eye captured something others couldn’t see.

The moment Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ’s hand reached into the Storage Ring Space, he stuffed a lot of things inside.

"Old dog! Truly shameless!"

Ling Xiao gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly.

At this moment, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ had already taken out the items from the Storage Ring.

"Wow! As expected of Senior Brother Yun Lan, the number one on the rankings. My god, there are actually a thousand Magic Crystal Stones, and ten Magic Sea King Crystals!

Too incredible! This is definitely first place, he’s already broken his own previous record."

"Yeah, no wonder Vice Dean Cloud insisted on having Senior Brother Yun Lan show his results."

"Heh, in that case, even if that Ling Xiao beat Senior Sister Mu Qinɡ, he still can’t beat Senior Brother Yun Lan. At most he’ll get third place."

As these discussions rang out, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ turned back to glance at Ling Xiao, his brows filled with disdain and a cold sneer.

The meaning was obvious: "Weren’t you acting arrogant? Let’s see you keep it up now."

He wanted to see shock and despair on Ling Xiao’s face.

But to his surprise, although there was some astonishment on Ling Xiao’s face, there was absolutely no despair. Instead, there was even more disdain and ridicule.

"Heh, Vice Dean Cloud truly has some brilliant tricks."

Ling Xiao suddenly let out a cold laugh and said.

"What do you mean by that?"

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ said coldly. He was sure that every movement he’d just made was absolutely unnoticed by anyone.

"What I mean, Vice Dean Cloud should be very clear in his own heart. You just stuffed the Magic Crystal Stones and Magic Sea King Crystals you obtained in the Devil Sea Secret Realm into Yun Lan’s Storage Ring. Did you really think you could fool everyone like that?"

Ling Xiao said with disdain.

Hearing this, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ’s brows furrowed tightly. He truly hadn’t expected his actions to be noticed.

"How dare you! You actually dare to slander this Deputy Sect Master!"

Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ roared, terrifying pressure sweeping toward Ling Xiao.

"What’s wrong? Flying into a rage from embarrassment?"

Ling Xiao mocked.

"Hmph, Ling Xiao, you’d better have evidence for what you just said. Otherwise, you’re spewing venomous lies!

Yun Lan’s fate will be your fate!

Slandering the Deputy Sect Master and slandering the Sect Master carry almost the same crime."

The First Elder of the Sect snorted coldly.

"That’s right, he must have gotten fewer Magic Crystal Stones than Senior Brother Yun Lan, so that’s why he’s doing this."

Voices of doubt also rose from the crowd.

"Ling Xiao, you’d better reveal your results quickly instead of making random accusations here."

An Elder also spoke.

Because no one believed Ling Xiao’s results could surpass this record.

"Random accusations? Heh, let’s set this aside for now and talk about it later!

No matter what despicable tricks Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ uses, they’re all in vain.

Because in your heart, you still underestimate me far too much. I’ll show you right now what a true Young Sect Master is! What a true number one looks like!"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly and touched his own Storage Ring.
