Chapter 981: Chapter 979: Reversing the Real Culprit (Part 5) Chapter 981: Chapter 979: Reversing the Real Culprit (Part 5) Demigod?
Upon realizing what Veron had said, apart from a select few characters in the room, everyone else gasped collectively, as if the air pressure itself had lightened.
This member of the Punishment Department is a demigod? Isn’t that overly elite!
Where did Heaven’s Commencement Institute find such a fierce person?
And had it actually been a complete secret before, or was it intentionally hidden, or were even the people from Heaven’s Commencement Institute uninformed?
Suddenly, all eyes converged on Cass.
Surprisingly, the latter showed not the slightest hint of surprise, smiling enigmatically as if everything was under his control.
Was it indeed intentionally kept a secret?
The audience instantly speculated.
If this guy really was a demigod, then the scenario Veron had described just now would undoubtedly seem all too natural.
The difference between a demigod and Fourth Phase may seem like just a step, but the gap is often unimaginably vast.
Even someone as talented as Ian, when faced with such an assailant, would find it hard to be fortunate.
“How could this be!”
It was clear, this information had a significant impact on Ni Huayuan.
Although only shocked, his disbelieving cry was overly fitting, making him sound like a villain whose plot had just failed.
In contrast, Li Weixuan was much calmer.
Due to the certain concealing effect of the Emissary’s Mask, not all the demigods present had noticed Fu Qian’s abnormality; for example, Professor Yang, who had been relatively active, hadn’t.
Although he hadn’t made that step yet, during the Ruan Shuo incident, Li Weixuan had interacted with Fu Qian before he became a demigod.
So, the moment Fu Qian entered, he sensed a change in him, now merely confirming one of his guesses.
“Don’t believe it? You could try challenging him later.”
Veron, who had recently done something similar, coldly snickered, seeming quite eager to witness such a scene.
“Although I don’t understand why Professor Fu would hide his strength, it’s clear you’ve picked the wrong scapegoat.”
“I really didn’t…”
Ni Huayuan, coming back from his disbelief, realized his main issue at the moment and began denying it frantically.
“Everyone at the Divine Ashes Institute knows that language is the least reliable thing.”
Old Master Veron no longer wished to waste words, slowly raising a hand.
The next instant, this hand visibly withered at a visible rate.
Publicly activating his Mythical Form, this individual was indeed harsh!
Was the previous medicine perhaps a bit too strong? After all, the old master was also of age.
During Fu Qian’s introspection, the audience area was already in chaos.
Although they were elites of the Academy, most were not demigods and couldn’t just ignore this.
Some, quick to react, had realized something was amiss from Veron’s tone, and had already taken measures to isolate their senses.
Those slightly slower reacted, influenced by the event, triggered various artifacts involuntarily, creating a spectacular scene.
Meanwhile, the original subject of the public trial was in a corner marveling at how the event was worth the price of admission, his relaxed demeanor reaffirming the claims of his demigod status.
“Are you really a demigod?”
Lanaia, who had quietly approached, asked out of reflex.
As the head of the Punishment Department, she had significantly more combat experience and was more resistant to such effects.
However, she soon realized the question was unnecessary and, thinking a bit, pointed at Veron.
“Did you cause this?”
Knowing well what sort of posture this Old Master usually assumed, she knew he was one of the most radical on the Divine Ashes Institute’s side.
Even previously, Cass had taken action because he was directly at odds with him.
It couldn’t possibly have changed so fast in just one day!
“Don’t talk nonsense, Professor Veron is stern and impartial, sworn to uncover the truth. How could you describe it so vilely?”
“Unfortunately, what responded to her was Fu Qian’s righteousness and sternness.”
…
“It’s impossible to believe, but since the other party stubbornly denied it, Lanaia was obviously helpless.”
“Enough!”
Seeing that the situation was about to become uncontrollable in an instant, Li Weixuan finally stepped forward to intervene.
“Everything will definitely be investigated, but you don’t have the authority to do this now.”
As if to reinforce his words, the demi-goddess from the Swordsmanship Department stood up at the same time, wielding an invisible sharp blade, and casually slashed through the air.
Ding!
Although there were no weapons, a sound of metal clashing rang out, and an invisible ripple swept across the entire room, causing almost everyone to shudder.
The chaos caused by directly looking at the Mythical Form was also instantly suppressed.
Even Old Master Veron, under the impact, seemed much calmer.
Looking down at her own hands, the demi-goddess seemed to realize something was amiss and dissipated her Mythical Form in an instant.
“Continue.”
The demi-goddess who had intimidated the whole room withdrew her hand, signaled Li Weixuan with a nod, and sat back down without saying more.
Impressive!
The presence of that sword strike would make most aspiring youths aspire to it after seeing it.
After lamenting the gap in stature once again, the excitement that had just peaked was extinguished, and Fu Qian had no objections.
As a member of the Punishment Department, our duty is to legally restrain evil.
Helping Old Master Veron argue, was only to clear the truth through debate.
Watching the excitement was just a small side benefit.
“Professor Viron, from what I heard just now, did you go to see Professor Fu earlier?”
After our demi-goddess stabilized the situation, Li Weixuan regained control and looked thoughtfully at the troublemaker.
Demi-gods can be a bit temperamental, but Viron’s behavior was still too unusual.
“Yes, earlier today.”
Frowning, Viron admitted his prior misconduct.
“Professor Fu, is that so?”
Instead of asking what he did, Li Weixuan went straight to Fu Qian for confirmation.
“Yes, I discussed some rather serious issues with Professor Viron.”
Fu Qian did not deny it, but of course, he was equally vague.
“Such as?”
However, there was someone unwilling to grasp the leadership’s intent, as Professor Yang from Viron’s faculty directly pressed on.
Regardless of the outcome, today’s events had already disgraced the Divine Ashes Institute, and his mood was very poor.
For instance…
Fu Qian was not intimidated and after a slight pause, he asked,
“How many years for mass lewdness?”
…
With Viron’s precedent, Professor Yang held back from slamming the table.
“I understand.”
Without giving him a chance to cause further trouble, Li Weixuan promptly ended the question.
“Additionally, Professor Fu, could you explain why you joined the Academy while concealing your abilities?”

This critical and provocative question, Li Weixuan finally asked.
At this moment, the audience was invigorated, their eyes bright.
“Of course, I can explain. In fact, this accusation is completely unfounded.”
Fu Qian remained completely unflustered.
“When I joined the Academy, I wasn’t a demi-god yet; I only ascended recently.”
