"Who is this person?
Why didn't Immortal Xiao bring him along? "Professor Dou frowned and asked.
"Hmph, why should I bring him along?
So that you can silence him? "
Xiao Hua laughed coldly, "This person didn't say much, he only said that he saw someone enter the Seven Suns Temple in the dark, and he vaguely saw Wu Qian nearby!"
"You … you returned to kill Wu Qian just based on this?" Professor Dou was even more dissatisfied.
Xiao Hua laughed coldly again, "Do you think I'm that kind of person?
If that's the case, I should have searched Wu Qian's soul when I saw him! "
"Searched Wu Qian's soul?
You … you searched Wu Qian's soul? "Professor Dou's expression changed.
"That's right, if I didn't search Wu Qian's soul, how would I know that he knowingly broke the law and brought a few constables to the Seven Suns Temple?
If I didn't search Wu Qian's soul, how would I know that he broke the law and accepted Jiang Wenhao's bribe to give the West Conch Ridge to the Jiang Family?
If I didn't search Wu Qian's soul, how would I kill Wu Qian, Zhuo Hong, Wang Tingyue, Zhang Chang and Xu Hongxi?
Why didn't I kill the other constables at the Seven Suns Temple?
If I didn't search Wu Qian's soul, how would I dare to bring Master Dao Shan's corpse to the Bronze Pillar Academy? "
Xiao Hua's every word shook the surroundings. Every word caused the faces of the students to change. After he finished speaking, not to mention the hundreds of villagers who were stirred up, even the students looked as if they were about to die.
That's right, Xiao Hua was a Daoist disciple, and a weakling in the Hidden Immortal Continent. If he didn't have such solid evidence, how would he dare to provoke the Confucian Academy?
If he didn't know the filth within, how would he dare to bring Master Dao Shan's corpse to the Imperial Academy?
But if what Xiao Hua said was true, this would be a huge humiliation to the Bronze Pillar Imperial Academy. Not only would the academy be destroyed by Xiao Hua for nothing, but its countless years of reputation would also be destroyed.
"Sigh …" Professor Dou sighed and shook his head, "Immortal Xiao, you are too reckless. Even if Wu Qian and the rest are guilty, the Bronze Pillar Country's magistrate should be the judge. You have no right to disregard human life, you should report it to the government.
Especially, who knows if you searched Wu Qian's soul???
Who knows if you're telling the truth?
We don't have the testimony of Wu Qian and the others either.
You have no evidence, so how can this old man and the others say anything? "
"Haha, Bronze Pillar State Magistrate?
What a big government! "
Xiao Hua laughed heartily, "Not just the governor of the Copper Pillar State, even if it's the Copper Pillar State, even if it's the Yu Province, even if it's the entire Hidden Immortal Continent, none of them are worthy of this Xiao's report!!!"
"Hmm, perhaps you have the right to be arrogant!"
Professor Dou didn't mention the shortcomings of the Daoist sects. Instead, he explained, "However, the Seven Suns Temple is in my Bronze Pillar Nation. Wu Qian is also a subordinate of the Bronze Pillar Nation's magistrate. This matter has to go through the magistrate!"
"Dou Shan Jun ~" Xiao Hua sneered, "This Xiao thinks highly of you and has already given you face by telling you the cause of the matter, as well as the name of the real culprit. Why are you not going to arrest Jiang Wenhao, but are here to argue with this Xiao about Wu Qian's death?
Could it be that you want to arrest this Xiao and bring him to justice? "
"Jiang Wenhao is the descendant of a Confucian family in the Bronze Pillar Nation. He is also a well-known figure in the Imperial Academy. Even I have heard of him." Professor Dou replied plainly. "Therefore, you don't have to worry. The monk can run away, but the temple can't …"
At this point, Professor Dou grinned and mocked himself, "This Dou's words are blasphemous to the Buddhist sects. I hope that the eminent monks of the Buddhist sects will not take it to heart!"
"Wow …" Another group of women exclaimed. They were obviously very satisfied with Dou Shan Jun's modesty.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't pretend to be profound!" Xiao Hua was even more unhappy as he said coldly.
Professor Dou didn't mind and smiled, "What I mean is that Immortal Xiao doesn't have to worry about Jiang Wenhao escaping. Even if he escapes, there is still the Jiang Family.
If he really did such evil deeds, not to mention me, even the Imperial Academy will not let the Jiang Family off! "
"Good!"
Xiao Hua clapped his hands and praised, "Just based on what you said, I will temporarily let go of the Imperial Academy's teacher statue!"
Professor Dou's face turned slightly cold when he heard this. He said with conviction, "I will definitely give you an answer regarding Jiang Wenhao. But what about the Imperial Academy's gate?
How are you going to give me and the Imperial Academy an answer? "
"Is the Dean the Dean?" Xiao Hua suddenly asked.
Professor Dou was stunned and replied casually, "Of course not!"
"If you are not the dean, why should I give you an answer?" Xiao Hua laughed, "After the Jiang Wenhao incident, you can consider this matter again!"
"Hehe …" Professor Dou laughed coldly, "I would like to see how you are going to give the Imperial Academy an answer, how you are going to give the Confucian cultivators an answer!"
After he finished speaking, Dou Shan Jun raised his voice and asked, "Where is Jiang Wenhao?"
When Xiao Hua mentioned Jiang Wenhao, there were already scholars in the Imperial Academy who sent out students to look for him.
Xiao Hua had already released his soul awareness and locked on to this person.
Just as Xiao Hua expected, when Jiang Wenhao heard that the Imperial Academy's gate was smashed and that Xiao Hua had brought Dao Shan's corpse to look for him, he panicked and ran out of the Imperial Academy in a hurry. However, he only left for a short while before he turned back. After he turned back, his expression was much calmer.
Obviously, it was as Professor Dou said. Even if Jiang Wenhao ran away, the Jiang Family of the Copper Pillar Nation would not be able to escape. Instead of panicking, it was better to face it calmly.
Xiao Hua saw how panicked Jiang Wenhao was and was already confident. Therefore, he was not worried that he would not be able to give the Confucian cultivators and the Imperial Academy an answer.
Not long after, Jiang Wenhao came in a hurry with a scholar. Looking at the handsome man whom he had already seen at the Academy last night, Xiao Hua despised him from the bottom of his heart, "What a waste of such a good appearance!"
That's right, this Jiang Wenhao was the scholar that Xiao Hua had seen before, the scholar that was proficient in Chiwen Zhong, the scholar that used a brush to add the finishing touches to the lotus lantern. Even at this moment, the two whiskers at the corners of the scholar's mouth were still slightly curled up. Those seemingly ordinary eyes were still deep and profound. Although flying in the air and standing next to Professor Dou somewhat obscured his elegance, it seemed that the two of them complemented each other, making them even brighter for a moment.
"Student greets Dean Dou!" Jiang Wenhao bowed to Dou Shan Jun and said respectfully.
Professor Dou smiled and waved his hand, "Stand up!
Do you know the reason why I asked you to come here today? "
"Yes, I have already heard about it!"
Jiang Wenhao nodded and looked at Xiao Hua, "This Taoist senior may have misunderstood. I have some dealings with Wu Qian from the government. However, because of family matters, it did not involve any personal relationship!
Furthermore, the Seven Suns Temple in Xiluo Ridge is a property of the Taoist sect. As a Confucian cultivator, how could I go there?
As for what Senior Xiao said about murdering Old Man Daoshan and occupying the property of Xiluo Ridge … that is even more false.
My Jiang family is also a Confucian family and is famous in the Bronze Pillar Country. How could I do such a thing? "
After saying that, Jiang Wenhao turned to Professor Dou and said, "Dean, Senior Xiao may have been too angry. This student doesn't dare to blame this senior.
As for what is right and wrong, I hope Dean can make the decision and clear my name! "
"Where were you last night?" Professor Dou asked directly.
"This …" Jiang Wenhao was terrified and hurriedly bowed, "I am in the wrong. Please punish me."
"Hmph?"
Professor Dou's face turned cold and said in a low voice, "If you have committed such a crime, how can I forgive you?"
Jiang Wenhao hurriedly smiled and said, "Even if you give me ten times the courage, I would not dare to do such a bad thing!
Last night, I … "
At this point, Jiang Wenhao clenched his teeth as if he was going to throw caution to the wind. He said in a low voice, "Last night, after I added the finishing touch to the lotus lantern, I … I went … to the Red Chamber with three to five friends."
"Red House?"
Professor Dou frowned and immediately understood. Although his face showed embarrassment, he was obviously relieved. He shouted, "Tell me, who did you go with?"
"Yes …" Jiang Wenhao's face was flushed red as he said a few names. Following Jiang Wenhao's voice, a few young students also flew into the air from within the academy, their faces abnormally red with embarrassment.
"Hmph …" Professor Dou snorted and said, "You all can leave. From today onwards, don't do your homework. Wait until this matter is over and I punish you!"
"Yes …" Jiang Wenhao and the others bowed and were about to leave.
Xiao Hua narrowed his eyes and coldly looked at Jiang Wenhao's performance. Only now did he open his mouth and said, "Wait!
Jiang Wenhao, let me ask you, do you know Kong Lifeng, Quan Chong, Ji Miao, and Liu Wujie? "
Jiang Wenhao, who was already about to leave, clearly trembled. But when he turned his head, his face was filled with surprise and bewilderment. He said to Xiao Hua, "Senior Xiao, this student naturally knows these four people!
They are the Martial Masters that I temporarily hired a few days ago for the Jiang Family's matter!
Furthermore, last night, the student had terminated his employment with them!
Oh, that's right, I also have the contract that was drawn up two months ago. If senior does not believe me, I can let the dean take a look! "
Jiang Wenhao emphasized the words "temporarily hired" and "terminated my employment" very clearly. Then, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Professor Dou.
Taking advantage of the time when Professor Dou opened the contract, Jiang Wenhao respectfully said to Xiao Hua, "Senior Xiao, Dao Shan's death and the tragedy at Seven Suns Monastery made me feel grief and indignation. However, even if the real culprits were Kong Lifeng, Quan Chong, Ji Miao, and Liu Wujie, it has nothing to do with me!
Oh, let's take a step back. Even if I didn't coincidentally terminate my contract with these four Martial Masters yesterday, it is still their own actions and has nothing to do with me.
If senior wants to find someone, you should find them! "
