Chapter 40
Emperor Taian’s murderous intent, Bai Li Dongjun enters the academy, and is cruelly mocked by Jun Yu

This farce, at last, came to an end.

The three major forces, having gone to intercept Jun Yu, were utterly defeated.

The news reached the imperial palace, causing the Emperor of Taian to be greatly shaken.

Jun Yu was just the senior disciple of the academy.

His master, Li Changsheng, hadn’t even made a move.

Yet he had dealt with all the forces sent out.

Emperor Taian was beyond furious.

He couldn't imagine.

If Li Changsheng had a change of heart, who could restrain him?

“This is outrageous, unbearable!”

Seeing the Emperor of Taian filled with anger, even smashing his teacup.

Grand Supervisor Zhuo Qing hastily stepped forward to appease him.

At the same time, he cautiously probed the Emperor’s intentions and put forward a shocking idea.

That was, to invite Li Changsheng and Jun Yu to the palace.

And then he would take the opportunity to kill them.

“Are you saying, to take action against Li Changsheng?”

Even though he was quite angry, Emperor Taian still gasped in shock.

After all, that was Li Changsheng, the number one swordsman in the world.

The only Sword Immortal in the world.

Not to mention, he also had an invincible senior disciple.

Let’s not talk about the other disciples.

How would things be salvaged after this?

His foolish son, Xiao Ruofeng, probably wouldn’t agree either!

Besides.

Jun Yu is already so powerful.

The people from Anhe and Yingzong, plus Zhuo Qing’s favorite disciple, couldn't handle him.

Can you actually kill Li Changsheng?

“Your Majesty, don’t forget we also have the National Master!”

Zhuo Qing suggested confidently.

It wasn’t that he was crazy.

But it was necessary for Emperor Taian to truly go crazy.

If he didn’t take action against Li Changsheng, how could the court situation become chaotic?

Zhuo Qing looked at Emperor Taian, who was full of melancholy, and how he wished that this time, His Majesty would make a blunder.

“Do as you say? The imperial family’s authority cannot be violated! Even if Li Changsheng refuses to come, Jun Yu must be captured!”

Emperor Taian, finally made up his mind.

This would be the worst decision he made in his life.

***

Inside the quiet inn.

Yue Yao had been waiting for Jun Yu to come back, standing by the window and not going to sleep.

Perhaps because she was too bored, the heavy drowsiness finally couldn’t resist.

She dozed off.

But she didn’t know when, her shoulder was gently pulled, and she was lifted up.

“You’ve been waiting for a long time? Just go to sleep, why bother waiting!”

Yue Yao rubbed her eyes and saw it was Jun Yu, only then did she show a smile.

“You’re back! I was so worried about you!”

“Everything is over, be at ease!”

Jun Yu sent her to where she should be, but he quietly dropped the curtain, preparing to have a little chat.

Yue Yao clasped his arm even tighter, refusing to let go for a moment.

“Tomorrow, I’ll join the academy, should we stop here?”

After all, she was disguised as a man to take the exam.

Although she passed the assessment successfully, she was a little worried, what if her identity was discovered?

After all, Master Li of the academy wasn’t easy to fool.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make arrangements, there’ll be no problems.”

Jun Yu had already thought it over, he would tell Master Liu Yue.

Then, Yue Yao would be under Master Liu Yue's tutelage, avoiding too much contact with Li Changsheng.

“Wait, wouldn’t that make me your junior disciple, the difference in seniority is too much!”

Yue Yao initially didn’t think much of it, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

Now, she’s directly become Jun Yu’s junior.

Did you do it on purpose?

“What, you’re not happy about being my junior disciple! Are you asking for a beating!”

Jun Yu was also impolite.

At a crucial moment, one had to know who was the head of the family.

Poor Yue Yao could only say she was wrong.

“Alright, let’s stop joking. Tomorrow, I have to participate in the academy’s initiation ceremony, so I’ll get some rest.”

“There’s no joking! Just letting you know about the academy’s rules, be careful, my master and fellow disciples might give you a hard time.”

Jun Yu started to give Yue Yao a sneak peek.

Tomorrow’s initiation ceremony, there’s more fun to come!

Don’t believe me? Just wait and see?

***

The next day.

The academy’s initiation ceremony.

All the disciples, gathered together.

Everyone had changed into the academy's Confucian robes and had been waiting there early.

Of course.

Their senior brother, still hadn't appeared.

The master, also didn’t know where he was hiding?

However.

Lei Mengsha and the others were still holding back a mischievous grin, waiting to see the good show.

All the official disciples who had joined knew how unreliable Old Li Changsheng was.

He would put a basin of water on the door, deliberately making fun of each new disciple, enjoying watching them make a fool of themselves.

Almost from Lei Mengsha onwards, it became a regular program of the academy.

Without exception.

As for today.

They didn’t know if Little Bai Li could escape the ordeal.

Yue Yao, however, because Jun Yu had instructed her, had directly joined Master Liu Yue’s faction.

She had escaped this ordeal.

At this moment, all the senior brothers were looking forward to seeing Bai Li Dongjun come in and be drenched with cold water, how pathetic he would look.

Unfortunately.

When the door was pushed open.

This Bai Li Dongjun, was actually cunning enough to dodge.

Watching the wooden basin land, the water splashed all over the ground.

He even proudly said that he was once the little overlord of Qian Dong City.

This kind of prank, he had played it all before.

Aren't you guys so old-fashioned?

Seeing Bai Li Dongjun escape the ordeal.

Lei Mengsha and the others were also slapping their foreheads.

Damn, how come they didn’t think this guy was so cunning.

It was a failure!

A bunch of people who wanted to watch the show, ended up watching him show off, so they were unhappy.

Lei Mengsha even said directly, is there anyone who can take care of this guy, and suppress his arrogance?

“Hehe, then you’re all thinking too much!”

Bai Li Dongjun, proud and smug, was about to step over the place with water, and walk straight in.

Who would have thought, just as he stepped into the academy’s grounds.

Out of thin air, another basin of water, was poured over him.

He was directly drenched like a drowned rat.

This change, was truly unexpected.

Lei Mengsha and the few others were stunned at first.

At the beginning, they couldn’t figure out where the second basin of water came from.

Then they understood.

This must be the senior brother's doing!

“Haha, didn’t you expect it?”

“You can dodge the master’s prank, but you can’t dodge the senior brother’s!”

“It’s hilarious…”

Lei Mengsha couldn’t hold back, and started to mock.

Only Luo Xuan coughed, signaling him not to lose his composure.

And Bai Li Dongjun, who had been tricked, was speechless.

What’s going on?

You guys are playing tricks, right!

Who’s so shameless?

On the roof.

Li Changsheng, who was originally a little disappointed, was lamenting his miscalculation.

“Damn, I forgot this kid, like me, is no good!”

Unfortunately, the next second.

His eldest disciple's assist, was delivered.

“Master, you’re old! Things like disciplining the academy, I’ll take care of it!”

At some point.

Jun Yu had appeared beside him, sitting on the roof of the academy, just like him, unrestrained.

“Who told you to come up here, so disrespectful!”

Li Changsheng deliberately put on a stern face, reprimanding him.

“I learned from you! Ever since I came to the academy, haven’t you been like this?”

Jun Yu was logical, leaving him speechless!
