Chapter 142: The Seal God Palace's Impatience
Zhao Shanhe spoke solemnly, "This... I am powerless. As for the Heart-Testing Path, it must be taken. Moreover, it doesn't necessarily mean that something bad will happen. Walking the Heart-Testing Path has immense benefits for the divine soul. You all should understand this."
Meng He Jun's anger surged, "Only those who can endure it will reap the benefits. If one cannot endure it, they'll come out as an idiot. Are you not aware of this? So many people have taken the Heart-Testing Path, how many of them have endured it?"
Zhao Shanhe's face turned ashen, and he said coldly, "I am merely following orders. You should know that Fang Che is a spy within the Unified Heart Sect. With his current achievements, his talents, and the potential arrangements for the future, once he grows, we will suffer a significant loss!"
Gao Qingyu scoffed, "What about the others? What about the other students? Should they also walk the Heart-Testing Path?"
"There's no such requirement from above." Zhao Shanhe spoke indifferently.
"Then let's make a request."
Gao Qingyu's tone was sarcastic, "Our White Cloud Academy has forty-two thousand students. Let's have them all walk the Heart-Testing Path. If the intensity inside is increased by one level, and they all become idiots, I, as the Headmaster, can step down and retire!"
"Gao Qingyu, you're being unreasonable!"
"Who's being unreasonable here?" Meng Chizheng's anger rose, "Our students, you want to arrest them, you want them to walk the Heart-Testing Path, and you have no evidence. Who's being unreasonable here?!"
"Do we still need evidence if we walk the Heart-Testing Path?"
Zhao Shanhe humphed, "There's no need for further discussion. Today, regardless of anything, Fang Che must walk the Heart-Testing Path!"
"Hmph..."
Meng He Jun sat down in anger.
Looking at Fang Che, there was a deep sense of regret in his eyes.
Zhao Shanhe said, "If there are no objections, I will take this person away."
He stood up as he spoke.
"If there are no objections... do our opinions even matter?"
Gao Qingyu mocked, "Zhao Shanhe is truly fair and just. He even asks if we have any objections! I'll tell you now, we do have objections, and they are significant!"
Zhao Shanhe's face remained ashen, "Your objections are overruled!"
"Damn it!"
Gao Qingyu cursed and turned to spit, "Then go ask for yourself!"
Zhao Shanhe waved his hand, "Take him away!"
Meng He Jun and the others stood up simultaneously, "Sir..."
After a moment of thought, seeing Zhao Shanhe's resolute attitude, everyone knew that this matter was irreversible. Instantly, they all felt a sense of helplessness in their hearts.
Meng He Jun spoke softly, "Please show mercy, and I beg you to show mercy. The intensity of the Heart-Testing Path..."
"I know. The lowest is the General Rank."
Gao Qingyu said, "I want to witness the intensity!"
"Not allowed! No one can watch the Heart-Testing Path!"
Zhao Shanhe turned around, not wanting to prolong the argument, and said, "If nothing happens, before midnight, I will bring the person back to you."
"..." Meng He Jun sighed.
Li Changkong also looked worried, "Sir, please reconsider."
Zhao Shanhe nodded.
Xiang Xinghe approached Fang Che, his steps heavy.
There was regret in his eyes.
After taking a few steps, he hesitated, then suddenly turned back and transmitted his voice to Zhao Shanhe, "Sir... do we really need to walk the Heart-Testing Path? This... it's too cruel."
Zhao Shanhe furrowed his brows, "What are you hesitating about? Are you planning to disobey orders?"
His voice was stern.
Xiang Xinghe sighed.
Li Changkong spoke up, "Can I accompany Sir Zhao? When Fang Che comes out, I'll bring him back."
"No need." Zhao Shanhe replied indifferently, "Just find a quiet room in the Martial Academy. If Instructor Li is worried about the student, he can wait at the entrance."
"Alright."
Li Changkong's voice was heavy, "Then I'll wait at the entrance."
"That's fine too."
Zhao Shanhe left with his hands behind his back.
Xiang Xinghe sighed and said to Fang Che, "Will you come with me, or should I take you by force?"
Fang Che stubbornly replied, "I'll go by myself!"
But in his heart, he was thinking about the Heart-Testing Path.
With his divine soul now ten times stronger than a few days ago, he should... be able to get through it, right?
There shouldn't be a problem.
But why was this matter being handled so severely, with such a grand display of force?
As Fang Che was taken away, Li Changkong followed.
Meng He Jun and Gao Qingyu both had dark expressions.
Their hearts felt heavy.
Meng Chizheng sighed, looking up at the sky, "What a waste of a genius. He should have achieved great things."
Shaking his head, he walked out with a heavy heart.
Lu Jiaoshan also sighed.
The other vice headmasters all had displeased expressions. After all, this matter was an internal affair of the White Cloud Martial Academy, and although Zhao Shanhe and the others held high positions, they had overstepped their boundaries.
Huang Yifan sighed, patted his buttocks, and stood up, "Is there anything else? I'm going to drink."
"All you know is drinking!" Meng He Jun's anger rose, "The reputation of the entire White Cloud Martial Academy is at stake, and you, as a vice headmaster, want to go and celebrate with drinks?"
Huang Yifan shrugged, "Can we even stop them?"
"..."
Huang Yifan left with a swagger.
Gao Qingyu was so angry that his beard trembled, pointing at Huang Yifan's departing figure, "Look at him, look at him... what kind of quality is that!"
...
"You just stand there and watch!!!"
The Library.
The old man grabbed Huang Yi Fan by the collar, his eyes red with rage. "Why didn't you stop him?"
Huang Yi Fan was stunned. He never expected the old man's reaction to be so intense. "How could I have stopped him?"
"What the hell is going on up there! This is outrageous!"
The old man's anger erupted like thunder. "Instead of capturing those demon brats, they come to make life difficult for a good kid! This is sheer madness, a bunch of beasts! I can't stand this, I'm going to find Gao Qingyu!"
He turned and strode towards the door.
Huang Yi Fan hurriedly held him back.
With his cultivation depleted, the old man had no chance of breaking free. He struggled fiercely, his anger reaching a boiling point. "Let go of me! I'm going to find Gao Qingyu, dammit! Fang Che has done so much and accomplished so much. His greatest achievement is right here with me, and there hasn't been a single gesture of appreciation. Now he's being taken to walk the Heart-Testing Path. I swear, I'm going to curse his ancestors!"
"A bunch of useless things!"
"Just because someone does good deeds, they deserve to be treated like this?"
The old man's eyes were bloodshot. "Let go of me! Either kill me or let me go, or I'll struggle to death! I don't want to live anymore!"
"I became a useless old man for you all, and now that a child treats me well, you can't stand it and want to kill him."
"I'm just a useless old man, no one cares about me. I'm wasting food alive and wasting land dead. I'm not in your way anymore, so I'll just die! That way, you won't feel like you owe me anything, damn it!"
The old man exploded.
Huang Yi Fan dared not use too much force, afraid of hurting him. For a moment, they struggled in a tangled mess.
"Finding Gao Qingyu won't help. He also wanted to stop him but couldn't!"
"Then I'll go find Zhao Shanhe."
The old man struggled, clearly fighting with all his might.
In the end, Huang Yi Fan's strength prevailed, and he lifted the old man, sitting him on the edge of the bed and pressing down on his shoulders with his hands. Lowering his voice, he said, "Don't you realize that many of Fang Che's actions are suspicious? He really seems like a traitor."
The old man cursed, "I see you, Huang Yi Fan, as a traitor! Damn it, you're a demon from the Demon Sect with your shifty eyes and sneaky looks!"
As he spoke, he spat a mouthful of saliva onto Huang Yi Fan's face and continued cursing, "Let go of me, or I'll bash my head against the wall and die!"
Huang Yi Fan's face was covered in embarrassment.
Wiping his face on his shoulder, he said, "Listen to me. If you don't trust me, do you trust Lord Nine?"
"Lord Nine?"
The old man's confusion grew. "Did Lord Nine say Fang Che is from the Demon Sect?"
"Hey, listen to me. This matter is top secret."
Huang Yi Fan had no choice but to hold the old man down. "I'll transmit my thoughts, and you listen. I'll tell you everything from the beginning to the end, and then I'll report it to Lord Nine. I'll tell you what Lord Nine said and everything."
Huang Yi Fan transmitted his thoughts, sharing the entire situation with the old man.
The old man's expression gradually calmed down.
Looking at Huang Yi Fan's anxious face, the old man paused to think, then said, "Did Lord Nine really say that?"
"Of course!"
"I still don't believe it!"
"Regardless, he shouldn't have been taken to walk the Heart-Testing Path."
The old man's emotions had calmed down, but he was still somewhat agitated.
His eyes filled with confusion, growing more intense by the moment.
"I'd rather die than believe that such a good kid is a Demon Sect spy!"
"That's your business. I didn't believe it at first, either."
Huang Yi Fan said, "I used my divine thought to pressure this kid into unconsciousness, and I still didn't see anything... If it weren't for Lord Nine forbidding me from thinking that way, I'd probably still believe he's a good kid."
The old man asked, "You once used your divine thought to pressure him into unconsciousness?"
Huang Yi Fan comforted him, "Yes, so you don't need to worry. His divine thought isn't weak. If he truly returns from the Heart-Testing Path, I won't be surprised. If that's the case, it might even be a blessing in disguise."
The old man humphed, "Nonsense! Lord Nine forbids you from thinking that way... Hmm? Lord Nine forbids you from thinking that way?"
He suddenly paused, deep in thought.
When did Lord Nine forbid someone from thinking a certain way? Why would Lord Nine do such a thing?
Turning to look at Huang Yi Fan, he thought, This old fellow can't keep a secret.
Then, as if understanding something, a flash of joy passed through his eyes, followed by a burst of anger, "Anyway, this kid treats me well! I don't care if he's from the Demon Sect or the Righteous Sect."
Huang Yi Fan exclaimed, "How can you not distinguish right from wrong?"
"I can't even kill a mouse now. What's the point of me distinguishing right from wrong?"
"You're right. Whether you distinguish right from wrong or not, it doesn't matter." Huang Yi Fan muttered.
"Get out of here!"
The old man's anger surged again.
He pushed Huang Yi Fan out of the room.
Alone in the room, he closed the door and windows, sitting in the darkness and pondering at his desk.
After a long while, he sighed softly, "Kid, I hope you're okay."
...
Meanwhile, at the Seal God Palace.
They received a message from a high-ranking spy in the White Cloud Academy.
"The Night Demon is suspected of being from the Demon Sect? Someone reported it to the Southeast Headquarters? Lord Zhao Shanhe is coming for an inspection? Is it because of the Su Clan incident in Green Wave City? Is it related to Su Yue? He's been taken to walk the Heart-Testing Path?"
The Seal God Palace was stunned. Suddenly, a wave of rage surged within them!
