"A backlash from the drug," Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed slightly. "It's a pity we didn't find out who the other accomplices were."

"Yes," Ye Hua shrugged, "What a pity."

It's a real shame, he was planning to include Dai Mubai and Yu Xiaogang as well!

[bite--]

[Mission "Killing One Stone, Four Birds" Completed!]

[Rewards being distributed...]

[The Chalice of Life has been stored in the Azure Jade Bracelet. Please check, Host.]

[Ma Hongjun is executed, Tang San is exposed, Salas pays with his Spirit Bone, Shi Nian and Huyan Zhen die, killing One Stone, Four Birds]

Ye Hua smiled slightly and accepted the reward.

Just then, a figure descended from the sky.

Flender lay beside a pool of blood, his face pale and desolate.

He had come to check on the situation after hearing about the incident.

But to my surprise, what I saw was my godson's corpse!

"Hongjun ..." Flender's voice trembled.

He sensed something was wrong when Ma Hongjun didn't come home at night half a month ago.

But they just assumed he was going to a brothel for pleasure and didn't think much of it.

Little did he know that he would commit such a grave mistake!

Although he was angry at his son's lack of ambition, they had been together for many years and had a deep bond.

Seeing this scene of blood and flesh scattered on the ground, how could I not have tears welling up in my eyes?

"Dean, please accept my condolences."

Ye Hua helped the swaying Flender up.

"Although Ma Hongjun has a crooked appearance, he doesn't have the ability to get his hands on those drugs."

"Teacher Ye, I heard you're involved in the investigation. Can you tell me who's behind it?"

Ye Hua fell silent upon hearing this.

The Ironclad Dragon stepped forward. "His name is Tang San."

Tang San?

Tang San!

What a Tang San!!!

Flender sensed the aura of the Ironclad Dragon; such a powerful being had no reason to lie to him!

"Bishop Salas," Ye Hua said with a half-smile, "the Spirit Hall has always been righteous, don't you think we should..."

Before Ye Hua could finish speaking, Salas was already on the verge of being roasted alive!

Tang San was identified by Ma Hongjun under intense interrogation in front of everyone.

If Tang San also lacks backbone and reveals his identity, then that would be hilarious!

That senior from the Long Night Alliance will definitely take him into custody the moment he gets the confession!

But he couldn't back down yet. He had acted with such righteous indignation when searching Ye Hua earlier; if he showed cowardice now, wouldn't he give himself away?

"Let's go!" Salas had no choice but to bite the bullet and proceed.

Ye Hua and Qian Renxue naturally went, Huo Wushuang Huo Wu, the siblings, followed along.

The Spirit Hall guards, the Crown Prince's bodyguards, and hundreds of onlookers formed a grand procession.

When Tang San saw so many people, he didn't seem surprised.

"Tang San," Flender's face darkened, "Ma Hongjun said you gave him drugs, is that true?"

Tang San blinked innocently, "What are you saying, Dean?"

"I mean," Flender's forehead veins throbbed, "That the drugs he said were used for crimes were given to him by you!"

"He's spouting nonsense!" Tang San exclaimed without hesitation. "How could I possibly have such a thing?"

"Really not?" Flender looked suspiciously at Tang San's crotch.

Tang San stepped aside, revealing the dormitory door.

At Qian Renxue's instruction, the Crown Prince Prince's Guard replaced the Spirit Hall's Guard in the search.

After a while, they came out and shook their heads.

No.

There were no medicines, powders, or any suspicious items whatsoever!

Tang San stood at the door, a smug look flashing in his eyes.

He had already given all the remaining medicine to Ma Hongjun.

The dormitory was spotless; no evidence could be found at all!

Flender searched the entire place himself, but found nothing.

Ye Hua was somewhat surprised; even being reborn after severing one's roots didn't tempt him?

As expected, the old ladyboy was quite something!

"Dean," Tang San took a deep breath, "I've said it before, I've been wronged."

Flender stared intently at him, remaining silent for a long time.

Finally, he slowly spoke, "From today onwards, you will no longer enjoy any resources from the Shrek Academy."

Tang San's eyes widened. "Dean! You have no evidence!"

"So what if there's no evidence?" Flender said coldly. "A dying man's words are often wise."

"Hongjun wouldn't have pinned the crime on you for no reason!"

Tang San's lips moved as if he wanted to refute, but Flender raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Get out! You're not welcome here!"

Tang San stood frozen in place, trembling all over.

He looked at Qian Renxue, "Your Highness..."

Qian Renxue sighed, "Tang San, even I can't help you."

"And let's stop the subsidies from now on."

Helping Tang San was originally a casual move, but now it seems that this person is vicious and difficult to control, and also has a grudge against Ye Hua, so the investment and returns have long become negatively correlated.

Tang San was struck dumb!

Having lost Shrek's resources and the Crown Prince's Residence's subsidies, how will he forge Hidden Weapon?

"You... you..."

Tang San was filled with grief and indignation, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"By what right do you decide my life or death based on the words of a dead man?!"

"Why are you treating me like this!"

"Why?!"

His roar echoed through the dormitory, but no one answered him.

Flender turned his face away, Qian Renxue remained silent, and only Salas breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tang San," Salas said sternly, "Given the serious suspicion surrounding you, this bishop has decided to temporarily imprison you in the Spirit Hall's solitary confinement room!"

Do you have any objections?

Solitary confinement?

Tang San instantly sensed danger.

This is a plan to place him under house arrest and then silence him once the heat dies down!

"Since there are no objections, tie him up."

Salas waved his hand, and his men rushed forward and pinned him down.

Tang San cried out anxiously, "No! There's no evidence! I won't accept this!"

Salas rolled his eyes. "I don't care if you submit or not."

The only way to stop the damage and prevent the situation from escalating is to kill you.

As for using the suspicion of this matter to threaten Ye Hua? Salas decided to back down!

With the Long Night Alliance involved, such a mysterious and powerful organization, he dared not go against their lead.

They didn't even accuse Ye Hua, but you're the one who did. Are you some kind of big shot than the Long Night Alliance?

"No!"

"Mmm!"

Tang San tried to resist, but the captain of the guard skillfully pulled off his sock and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Vomit--"

A burning sensation spread through his throat, almost causing Tang San to faint.

He tried to struggle, and then, the rope binding him actually broke.

Before Tang San could react, his body was thrown straight forward.

Duang!

A headbutt against a table corner resulted in a bloody head injury!

"Hmph," Salas sneered, "I'll teach you to resist!"

But then, Tang San staggered backward, feeling dizzy, and stepped on the rope that was dragging on the ground.

My foot slipped, my body leaned back, and the back of my head slammed against the floor!

With a loud bang, he saw stars and foamed at the mouth!

Salas's taunt stuck in his throat.

"I..."

Tang San groggily got up, only to trip over a table leg.

His wrist lunged at the scrap of Hidden Weapon beside him, his wrist testing the hardness of the iron sheet!

Splatter! Blood splattered on the white wall.

Salas:...

Flender:...

Everyone:...

Then, Tang San hurriedly got up, looked for tissues to cover his wound, but stumbled and crashed into the glass window.

"Oh no! He's trying to escape!" someone exclaimed.

Tang San smashed through the glass with a crack and jumped from the fifth floor.

Thump.

The voice was muffled.

Headbutt on the ground!

Now no one doubted that Tang San had run away.

No one dared to go up and arrest him.

That's incredible luck!

"No! He got up!"

"What is he doing? He's going to scale the eaves and run! He's going to run away!"

Everyone was shocked and crowded around the small window to watch.

Salas was also surprised by Tang San's tenacity, "How is it?"

"Well, Your Excellency, we don't need to worry about him running away."

"Why?"

He fell from the treetop, his neck wrestling with the vines.

"Oh, that's fine then. Take him to the solitary confinement room."

Watching the Spirit Hall guards leave, Ye Hua, half-disdainful and half-panicked, helped Tang San, who looked like he was under a dark cloud, up. He then withdrew his gaze.

Salas won't let Tang San get away with it. He's being kind by not killing him to silence him.

Qian Renxue stopped looking at him and turned to Ye Hua instead.

"This is gratifying, but it's a pity it delayed your important business."

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have arrived earlier and stopped Salas right away!"
