Chapter 1531: Director
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No matter what, Elder Bo Yan was also an important existence in the academy. When the director wasn’t around these few years, he was always the one handling the matters in the academy, no matter big or small.
Even if he didn’t have any credit, his hard work should still be considered. Besides, before this, he had always fulfilled his responsibilities.
It was really overboard for Yi Wenzhuo to harshly reprimand him without asking anything.
As though he had long expected this scene, Elder Bo Yan looked calm. He politely bowed and said calmly, “We’re all happy that the vice-director is back. I’m useless and can’t do this properly. I’ve disappointed you.”
Even though he said this, his expression wasn’t humble at all as if he didn’t panic or wasn’t anxious because of Yi Wenzhuo’s scolding.
!!
“But don’t worry. We’ve already stabilized the situation, and we’re trying our best to solve the matter. We definitely won’t allow the matter to blow up.”
Yi Wenzhuo hated this expression of Bo Yan’s the most. He is just an extremely normal elder in the academy, yet he looks as if his status is even more distinguished than mine—the vice-director.
“That’s easier said than done.” Yi Wenzhuo coldly snorted. “All these years, Million Wine Mountain has never been like this. Why did this suddenly happen now?!”
With a cold expression, he took a step forward and went close to Elder Bo Yan. “It would be fine if it’s other people. Bo Yan, you should know how serious this matter is, right?!”
Elder Bo Yan looked down slightly, and his att.i.tude was the same. “I naturally know, so I didn’t dare to take this lightly or s.h.i.+rk my responsibility. After this matter ends, you can punish me as you wish.”
The meaning behind Bo Yan’s words was that everyone was busy solving the problem and that it wasn’t the time to point fingers.
Yi Wenzhuo was upset by his reb.u.t.tal. “What else do you have to say? The coldness in the fountain has leaked outside. The situation is urgent, and we must immediately activate the ‘Heaven-Locking Formation!’ Seal up Million Wine Mountain!”
Everyone was shocked when he said this.
Shock even flashed across Jun Jiuqing’s eyes.
“You mustn’t do this!” Hearing this, Elder Bo Yan finally had a change in expression. “Yue’er is still in the fountain. Once the formation is activated, she will definitely be suppressed within!”
The Heaven-Locking formation was a top Xuan formation, and it had a very strong ability to kill or harm people! By then, she wouldn’t be able to come out!
“What time is it now? How can we care about this?!” Yi Wenzhuo seemed very frustrated. “Bo Yan, be clear! Is a student more important, or the entire Ling Xiao Academy!”
“Before I came, I already understood everything that happened in Ling Xiao Academy. Shangguan Yue is the girl from back then… She still knows how to cause trouble as usual! She caused so much trouble in the past, but the director protected her, and we couldn’t do anything about it. However… she has made a huge mistake this time!”
As Yi Wenzhuo spoke, he pointed at Million Wine Mountain. “Without me saying, you should also know how her red-tailed phoenix broke through to become a red-gold heavenly phoenix, right?! She has now gone in out of guilt. Why are you still hesitating? If she has made a mistake, she should accept the punishment!”
Elder Bo Yan clenched his teeth and tried his best to calm himself down. “Vice-director, we’re not sure if Yue’er’s red-gold heavenly phoenix really has something to do with the fountain. How can you come to this conclusion so casually? Besides, even if it’s really so, there are still other solutions! After all, she’s a student in the academy, Senior Shangguan’s descendant, and the Sky-Cloud Empire’s princess consort. How can you treat her life so lightly?!”
“You haven’t been in the academy these few years and don’t understand many things—”
“I wouldn’t dare to say anything else, but if the director was here, he would definitely agree with me!” Yi Wenzhuo suddenly sneered. “Bo Yan, who do you think caused the director to disappear?”
