Heavenly Treasure Pavilion: Look, Huang Zhan's Grinning So Hard His Front Teeth Are Showing

Xiao Ye's words made Xiang Ge pause for a moment, and then he looked at Xiao Ye.

Then, Xiang Ge chuckled softly.

"Why would I target someone like you, a mere junior?"

At this moment, everyone's attention turned to Xiao Ye again.

Looking at Xiao Ye's composed expression, many people were filled with mixed emotions.

"As expected of someone who could obtain the Saint Emperor's inheritance, such composure is truly rare. Even when facing a powerful figure like the Xiang Clan Chief, who holds a high position, he showed no fear whatsoever. Even from this distance, I felt a little afraid to look directly at him."

"Without such a mindset, one would likely be unable to accomplish such a thing. The legacy of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor has been here for countless years; it is truly unique."

"Speaking of which, Senior Lu also had a junior who was just as composed when facing Xiang Ge. I wonder where he is now. Could he still be staying in the main courtyard?"

While each party has its own thoughts...

Xiang Ge suddenly changed the subject, looking at Xiao Ye:

"But since you've put it that way, I certainly can't let you down."

As he spoke, he glanced at where Shen Wenxi was and said:

"Regarding the engagement, this one aspect alone cannot confirm anything."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Zhan said:

"Let me think. Who was it that specifically inquired about the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor? Dean Meng, what did they say back then?"

After saying that, Huang Zhan looked at Meng Yu.

This immediately reminded everyone of their earlier inquiry.

For a moment, the atmosphere became even more awkward.

"The Xiang Clan's handling of this matter this time was truly substandard."

At the location of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, some powerful figures secretly shook their heads.

"Indeed." The person beside him nodded slightly.

"Unfair accusations ultimately fail to consider the significance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor's inheritance. The people below aren't fools. Even if there's unfairness in handling the Saint Emperor's inheritance, it won't have much of an impact. Everyone knows how difficult it is; it can't be achieved with external help."

"Now it's quite obvious again, and it seems even he himself didn't expect things to turn out this way."

The person who spoke first nodded slightly, glanced at Huang Zhan, and said:

"Huang Zhan must know something; look, he's grinning so hard his front teeth are showing."

"This..." A bystander looked in the direction of the gaze, paused, and then said:

"The Huang Clan and the Xiang Clan have had conflicts for many years, and this time they're probably going to be thrilled by the Huang Zhan."

While they were talking, Meng Yu had already finished his exchange with Huang Zhan.

In short, being able to take away the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor means that points cannot be used as a reference, so there is no problem with the marriage agreement.

Xiang Ge reacted, but not strongly, and continued:

"That's what they say, but how can you prove that he really obtained the inheritance of the Myriad Laws Saint Emperor?"

After a pause, Xiang Ge chuckled softly:

"Back then, there was a senior actor who was exceptionally skilled at acting, even fooling everyone."

The implication is self-evident.

At this moment, the voice of Zhou Lineage family patriarch rang out from where the Zhou Lineage was located:

"I think it's too early to draw a conclusion on this matter. We should follow the rules. Right now, we're only considering the aspects of comprehension; the assessment of strength hasn't even begun."

As his voice faded, other leaders of various factions spoke up.

Xiang Ge's gaze lingered casually on Xia Hai, yet it held a meaningful look.

Gurgle.

Xia Hai swallowed hard.

He saw the deeper meaning in Xiang Ge's face. "You should judge for yourself."

I'm afraid that if I don't speak up and support this matter according to the rules, the Xiang Clan will start to act against the Xia Clan.

After hesitating for a third of a breath, Xia Hai took a deep breath and followed suit:

"The Academy enjoys a renowned reputation throughout the land, and its actions are generally trusted. Since there is controversy surrounding this matter, I think we should proceed according to the rules."

For a time, voices supporting following the rules were heard everywhere.

From the Academy's perspective, Duan Bo and the others all looked towards Meng Yu.

They had been mostly in seclusion and were unaware of these things.

Meng Yu relayed the general situation to him via telepathy.

Duan Bo glanced at Xiang Ge, his brows furrowing slightly.

The Xiang Clan's current actions are truly aggressive. Back when the Xiang Clan was not so powerful, the Academy had provided them with considerable assistance.

However, human nature is complex, just as there are all kinds of birds in a large forest.

There's no need to pay too much attention to this.

The most important thing right now is Kong Mu's attitude.

Duan Bo looked at Xiao Ye: "If you are unwilling, no one can force you to do it, not even the Xiang Clan."

Thank you, senior.

Xiao Ye thanked him and then said:

"But I feel that we cannot back down on this matter. Since there are doubts, we should try to dispel them. Besides, there are many people around us right now, and perhaps I can take this opportunity to bring some glory to the Academy."

Xiao Ye was naturally willing.

He inquired with the system and learned that the mission to showcase his talents was not yet complete.

Moreover, the task of rebellion has not yet been carried out.

The Xiang Clan is currently dissatisfied with something and is actively targeting us, which presents a perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, so we will not waste it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have proactively pointed the finger at me in the first place.

Duan Bo glanced at Xiang Li, then looked back at Xiao Ye and said:

"The Academy will respect your decision, but you must be very careful."

As the voice faded, Duan Bo's aura subsided, enveloping the two of them. Then, he raised his hand and pointed a finger at Xiao Ye's brow.

Swish, swish, swish.

A powerful soul force surged into Xiao Ye's sea of consciousness, constructing a powerful soul-level defense within it.

One should always be wary of others.

In the crowd.

Lu Changzhi flashed to the vicinity.

With a somewhat surprised expression on his face, he looked at everyone and gently shook his head:

"It's earlier than expected? Luckily, my nap time is short today, otherwise I would have missed it."

Looking around, Lu Changzhi telepathically called out to Sun Yi, inquiring about the situation.

"This Xiang Ge is so slow at getting things done."

Having learned what had happened, Lu Changzhi transmitted his thoughts to Huang Zhan.

The main thing is to prevent the other party from stopping Xiao Ye.

Looking at all the players on the field, Xiang Li is clearly the most suitable.

He was famous and belonged to the Xiang Clan.

Although this opportunity did not offer him any particular advantage, considering that he had previously torn his own cushion, he was now using his own name to provide a foothold for his disciple.

Is it reasonable? Absolutely.

Lu Yuan also came out and handed a recording stone to Lu Changzhi, saying at the same time:

You have a good eye for people.

Lu Changzhi glanced at the contents of the recording stone, then gently shook his head:

"You're really not as good as the one who had an old lady to persuade her."

Although Lu Changzhi didn't approve of Xiang Li's approach to things, he was quite satisfied with what Xiang Li had done.

Now that we can do or say something, we'll have a legitimate reason to act, right?

At this moment, Meng Yu spoke up on the field:

"Since there is already a dispute regarding the marriage agreement, let's proceed according to the established rules."

"All license holders who have completed the enlightenment stage may participate in a contest of strength to determine the final marriage contract. Those who choose not to participate will be considered to have forfeited the points earned in this stage."
