School flower's personal master

Chapter 12699

Xia Qinghou was overjoyed: "Thank you, Brother Yuan!"

They couldn't wait to enter the Heavenly Pillar.

The rest of the group could only feel resentful.

Yuan Chu reassured them, "You don't need to worry. I said the Beast God Academy wouldn't treat you unfairly, and it certainly won't. Just be patient."

Only then did everyone feel relieved.

Yuan Chu turned to Lin Yi: "Brother Lin, do you still think I orchestrated this whole thing?"

Lin Yi gestured for him to continue: "Brother Yuan, please continue."

"We're brothers, and if you don't push me, I really don't want you to embarrass yourself like this."

Yuan Chu sighed, but his eyes held a smug mockery: "The Heavenly Dao Pillar is connected to the Beast God Academy, and the area it covers is no longer within the Heavenly Prefecture. According to your logic, Marquis Xia Qing should be punished by the Heavenly Dao now."

"Excuse me, what happened to the promised divine punishment?"

Everyone watched with bated breath, including Xia Qinghou himself, who was also feeling uneasy.

Although Yuan Chu had given his assurances many times, he also believed that the Beast God Academy was more than capable of handling this minor matter.

However, I still have some concerns.

A few breaths passed, and nothing happened.

Xia Qinghou was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed: "Did you see that? There was no punishment at all!"

Yuan Chu smiled faintly and said, "I told you long ago that the Heavenly Dao will not allow a contract of unilateral exploitation to be established. The so-called Heavenly Dao contract is nothing more than someone leaving a backdoor in the secret technique you cultivate."

"Those low-level control methods are nothing compared to the Beast God Academy."

"Brother Lin, would you like to offer your comments?"

All eyes in the room were focused on Lin Yi.

In contrast, Yuan Chu already appeared to be in the posture of a victor.

No matter how much he had just suffered a setback, at this moment, everything was back to normal.

More and more students in Tianwu Hall began to waver.

Even the bigwigs from all sides of Tianjun looked at Lin Yi with more disappointment in their eyes.

There's no other reason than that the scene before them has already confirmed Yuan Chu's accusations: Tianwu Hall is indeed using underhanded and unorthodox methods to manipulate its students.

This method is far too crude!

It's not that these students can't be controlled; there are always benefits and costs, which isn't a big deal in itself. But the fact that the methods used are so low-level only proves that Lin Yi, the Lord of Tianjun, is also not up to par.

This is the more crucial issue.

Why would a lowly ruler of Tianjun make them believe that he can lead them, the big shots of Tianjun, to a life of luxury and even greater heights?

A wider range of people's hearts began to waver quietly.

Yuan Chu took in the whole scene and couldn't help but feel smug.

Undermining the Heavenly Martial Hall was merely one of his tactics.

His ultimate goal was to undermine Lin Yi's rule over Tianjun, create rifts between Lin Yi and various factions in Tianjun, alienate them, and pave the way for the Beast God Academy to formally intervene in Tianjun!

Lin Yi remained silent, only looking up at the sky.

This performance, in the eyes of others, was tantamount to admitting defeat, and it only made him lose points even more.

Yuan Chu's lips curled into a smile: "Brother Lin, don't you want to say anything more? If you don't want to speak, I can say it for you—"

His words stopped abruptly.

Because the sky has changed.

The once clear sky was suddenly covered with dense golden characters.

The words intertwined like chains, slowly rotating, exuding a vast, ancient, and unquestionable majesty.

A Covenant with Heaven!

Everyone was stunned, including Yuan Chu.

Xia Qinghou, inside the Heavenly Pillar, also raised his head, and then his face instantly turned deathly pale.

A portion of the golden text lit up.

[Having received this secret technique, one must not leave Tianjun. If this agreement is broken, any increase in cultivation will be revoked by the Heavenly Dao.]

Xia Qinghou's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Do not--"

He had barely uttered a single word when his body froze.

An invisible force descended from the sky and landed on him.

He could clearly feel that all his recent insights into the Three Styles of the Ephemeral Flower, whether it was the so-called castrated version taught by Tianwu Hall or the improved version given to him by Yuan Chu from the Beast God Academy, had been completely erased.

Not only that, but the Dharma power that forms the foundation of his being also began to recede like the tide.

Xia Qinghou's face was immediately filled with terror.

If it were simply the loss of the three forms of the Ephemeral Flower, he would still feel heartache, but it wouldn't be completely unacceptable.

After all, it's not difficult to learn stronger Dharma Aspect Secret Techniques once you join the Beast God Academy.

But if even his Dharma power is eliminated, that would be the death of him!

"No! This isn't fair!"

Xia Qinghou shouted in despair.

Unfortunately, he was not facing people, but the will of Heaven.

No one present believed that the Way of Heaven was truly unjust. If you insist that the Way of Heaven is unjust, it only means that you are standing on the opposite side of the Way of Heaven.

Lin Yi explained slowly, "The Dharma Aspect Secret Technique cannot exist independently. From the moment you begin to cultivate it, it has been deeply bound to your Dharma Aspect power. If you remove the Dharma Aspect Secret Technique, you will naturally remove the Dharma Aspect power as well."

Xia Qinghou was stunned, watching helplessly as his Dharma power was completely drained away, and he collapsed on the spot.

The scene was deathly silent.

Everyone was stunned by this divine judgment.

The students of Tianwu Hall standing behind Yuan Chu all had fear written all over their faces.

They can't escape the same fate as Xia Qinghou!

At this moment, Yuan Chu's face had turned from green to white, and then from white to black.

He stared intently at the golden characters in the sky, his face filled with suspicion and uncertainty. He suddenly looked at Lin Yi and asked, "Did you do this?"

Lin Yi calmly met his gaze: "Heaven's justice is impartial; I have never hidden anything."

"impossible!"

Yuan Chu gritted his teeth: "You couldn't have done nothing!"

He was certainly aware of the existence of the Heavenly Contract. His previous claim that Lin Yi had left a backdoor in the secret technique to control the students was nothing more than a mutual accusation.

His confidence stemmed not from any real ability to defy the Heavenly Contract.

Rather, he did not violate the Heavenly Contract at all!

The so-called Heavenly Pillar, which appears to originate from the Beast God Academy, actually does not lead to the outside world at all. Instead, it connects to a secret realm that he meticulously arranged.

The coordinates are still within Tianjun.

From any perspective, his move was flawless.

Anyway, no one present could go to the Beast God Academy to verify it. As for Xia Qinghou, he could be killed casually after being teleported to the secret realm.

It's just a waste of resources and discarded items.

Everything was planned perfectly; who would have thought this would happen!

Lin Yi looked at him with a half-smile: "Brother Yuan, tell me, what exactly did I do?"

"..."

Yuan Chu was speechless.

Even if he had figured it out, he wouldn't reveal it to the public and expose his own shortcomings.

Lin Yi said meaningfully, "Brother Yuan, now is not the time to worry about others. You should worry about yourself first."

Yuan Chu was taken aback: "What do you mean?" (End of Chapter)
