"Is this not a joke, Senior Sister Biyao, are you kidding me?"
Lu Fan said repeatedly, his expression even more solemn.
"Of course I'm not joking!" Biyao patted her chest. "Your Senior Sister Biyao is no ordinary person. As the personal disciple of the Dean, this matter should be easy to resolve."
The Qingyun Sect disciples instantly showed joy. If Biyao could resolve this matter, they wouldn't have to worry too much, as it had caused quite a stir.
"How does Senior Sister Biyao plan to resolve it?"
Lu Fan asked, his expression becoming solemn.
"I'll go and say something. This old man wouldn't dare to trouble me." Biyao vowed confidently. After all, she was the Dean's personal disciple, and even in front of elders, her words carried some weight.
Just then, not far from the courtyard, the Seventh Elder, with Wan Hai, rushed in angrily, his expression full of displeasure.
Many people were watching from the surroundings, and some were even looking forward to what would happen next.
Biyao, who was about to go out, saw the Seventh Elder and quickly went to greet him: "Isn't this old man Seventh Elder? What brings you out for a stroll?"
"So it's Nephew-Disciple Biyao." The Seventh Elder smiled. "I'm not here for a stroll. Someone injured my disciple, and I will make him pay the price. Otherwise, he would really think I'm easy to bully."
Biyao was slightly taken aback and looked at Wan Hai. She hadn't expected Wan Hai's injuries to be so severe, even having one arm crippled.
The Seventh Elder was extremely protective of his disciples. Facing such an act, how could he let it go?
"Old man, this matter might have some hidden circumstances," Biyao said. "There must be a reason why this Wan Hai was beaten. You are an elder, you can't just act recklessly, can you!"
The Seventh Elder frowned. "What do you mean by that? I don't quite understand."
"What I mean is, this matter can be reported to the Enforcement Hall, and let the Hall handle this matter." Biyao chuckled. "After all, you are an elder, old man. How can you expose yourself like this? Wouldn't it be embarrassing for an elder!"
"It's too troublesome to ask the Enforcement Hall!" The Seventh Elder shook his head and prepared to step into the courtyard, but Biyao blocked him. "I just said, Elder Seventh, it's not good to fight here, or it will affect the academy's reputation. Most importantly, if Master finds out, he will probably be unhappy."
"Master, please don't listen to his nonsense. Senior Sister Biyao is in league with them."
Wan Hai quickly said, "It's precisely because they have Senior Sister Biyao backing them that they are so bold and don't take me seriously, directly crippling my arm!"
"So that's how it is!"
The Seventh Elder's expression turned cold. He looked sharply at Biyao: "Nephew-Disciple Biyao, what do you think about this matter?"
"What are you saying? This is all rumor and not to be trusted," Biyao said directly. "I'm saying this for your own good, Elder. If Elder insists on taking action, I can only go and invite Master to come and preside over justice. We are all students of Beihai Academy. If you can't win a fight, you have to ask an elder to intervene. What will become of Beihai Academy's reputation in the future?"
"You little girl, don't threaten me!" The Seventh Elder rolled his eyes. "I don't accept this threat. Moreover, that person injured my disciple, and how can I let it go? Even if the Dean were here, I would never compromise." Su Dan Novel Network
Wan Hai stood by the side, looking even more pleased. He knew very well that the Seventh Elder was famous for doting on his disciples. As long as the Seventh Elder took action, any matter could be accomplished.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade the Seventh Elder, Biyao frowned slightly: "Old man, you're not planning to get serious, are you? That person is my friend. If you do anything to him, I will be unhappy!"
"My disciple absolutely cannot be bullied for no reason!" The Seventh Elder said coldly. "You little girl, don't get involved."
The Seventh Elder waved his hand and walked directly towards Lu Fan's courtyard, disregarding everything else. He had come here today to get an explanation from Lu Fan, otherwise, Lu Fan and the others would likely face disaster.
"Master, it's this kid!" Wan Hai pointed at Lu Fan, with a commanding aura.
Lu Fan stood aside, appearing rather calm. "Elder, it was indeed I who made the move, but he provoked me first and beat up the Qingyun Sect Leader. If he hadn't been so reckless, I wouldn't have crippled his arm!"
"Then do you know he is my disciple?" the Seventh Elder asked coldly, with a powerful aura.
"I know!" Lu Fan nodded. "But this seems to have nothing to do with whose disciple he is. He initiated the matter, so my actions seem to be the most appropriate."
"Since you dare to do it, I admire you," the Seventh Elder nodded. "But since you've done something, you have to pay the price. This is also the rule of the cultivation world."
"You mean, Elder, you're going to protect your own?" Lu Fan chuckled. "To attack a disciple without distinguishing right from wrong, if this were to spread, wouldn't it ruin Beihai Academy's reputation!"
"You brat, you have a big mouth. You still dare to be so arrogant!"
The Seventh Elder's expression was cold. "Don't you have me in your eyes?"
"I respect those who respect me!" Lu Fan smiled faintly. "I hope the Elder can understand these words."
Biyao frowned at the side. Lu Fan's words might provoke the Seventh Elder. If that were the case, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Well said, 'I respect those who respect me'!" The Seventh Elder laughed heartily. "Today, I will see what kind of capabilities you have, kid, to dare to speak such arrogant words."
In the blink of an eye, the Seventh Elder formed an eagle's claw with his hand and lunged at Lu Fan, even grasping from a distance without any hesitation.
Lu Fan dodged. Facing an attack from a peak Spirit King, with his current strength, he had no way to resist. If he didn't dodge, there was only a dead end.
At that sudden moment, Biyao made a fierce move, charging towards the Seventh Elder with an unstoppable momentum. She couldn't just watch Lu Fan get into trouble, after all, Lu Fan had become a friend in her heart.
"Little girl, don't ruin my good deed!"
The Seventh Elder said coldly, "Otherwise, I'll deal with you too!"
"He is my friend, how can I stand by and watch you deal with him?" Biyao said directly. "I hope Elder can act calmly and give the matter a chance to buffer."
"Since I have come forward, I will never show mercy!" The Seventh Elder said coldly. "If you don't leave, don't blame me for not showing any regard for our relationship!"
"In that case, I will come and learn a few tricks from Elder!"
Biyao's expression was cold, and she moved forward with an unstoppable momentum. She wanted to see what abilities the Seventh Elder possessed.
