Rebirth Of An 8000 Years Old Mage - 27 Imprisoned
The bodies of the five-mages were discovered by other disciples that went hunting in the forest, the scene was a total massacre and some even fell sick from seeing it. It was quickly reported to the elders and an extensive investigation was launched to search for the murderer.
The next day in Thunderbolt Academy, Qian Ching intruded into Xiao Yang’s classroom during a lecture still taking place.
“Chen Xiao Yang! Payback my brother!” Qian Ching roared as he rushed toward Xiao Yang with a C-Class elemental sword drawn.
“Stop! How dare you break into my classroom and attack my student?!” The teacher shouted as she wields her Vine Elemental power.
Vines suddenly grew beneath Qian Ching and quickly restraining him, the teacher’s elemental power was A-Class so Qian Ching had no chance of breaking it or escaping.
“Teacher Lan! Chen Xiao Yang killed my brother Qian Lee, he must die!” Qian Ching exclaimed.
“Shut up! My classroom is not the courthouse if you have a problem then report it to the Disciplinary Hall.” Teacher Lan glared at them.
Teacher Lan took out her communication stone and requested them to send someone from the Disciplinary Hall over here to deal with the situation. Her eyes looked as if she was going to kill somebody.
Not long after the Disciplinary Hall sent one of its elders to the scene, the elder took the two outside, leaving the students and Teacher Lan in the classroom. The students wanted to gossip but with Teacher Lan there, no dare to muster a single word.
The elder was a middle-aged man who wore a rugged-looking shirt that exposed his muscles on his arms. With his arms crossed, he stared at the two with an intimidating face.
“Say, why did you break into the classroom?” The elder asked in a deep voice.
Qian Ching who was still infuriated pointed at Xiao Yang and shouted, “He killed my little brother.”
The elder then asked, “What is your proof?”
“He is the illegitimate son of our Qian Family and he had always had the thought of killing the entire family, so it must have been him.” Qian Ching then continued by saying, “I heard from my little brother that Xiao Yang has an S-Class mage backing him. He must have asked him to murder my brother!”
“An S-Class?” The elder asked.
“That’s right, you could ask the two mages that went to DongHe City during the Youth Tournament to represent Thunderbolt Academy.” Qian Ching replied he then thought to himself, “The Disciplinary Hall will not let go any lead relating to the murder case.”
“Elder, as long as we capture Xiao Yang, that S-Class will eventually show up to help him.” Qian Ching smirked.
“Ha-ha!” Xiao Yang suddenly burst out laughing.
“Xiao Yang what are you laughing at? Are you trying to disrespect the elder?!” Qian Ching asked pointing his finger at him.
“Qian Ching, do you really think that your words can easily fool the elder?” Xiao Yang waved his hand.
Qian Ching shouted, “What do you mean?!”
Xiao Yang grinned and replied, “First of all, why in the world would an S-Class be helping me to dirty his hand? and secondly, do you this think an S-Class mage is able to get past the security of Thunderbolt Academy?”
The arrays that are set up at the Thunderbolt Forest are SS-Class arrays, even an SS-Class mage would struggle to break through it so let alone an S-Class mage. The only way to get past the array is with an authentication badge, such as an outer-disciple student badge, the badge can only be used by the person itself and once used the name of the mage is automatically recorded down.
What’s more, the section that Qian Lee’s group went in was the Student-Exclusive Zone, outsiders are prohibited to enter so the only possible S-Class mages are the elders of the academy itself.
“Mhm… You are not wrong, an S-Class mage would never be able to break through the array.” The elder spoke as he strode his moustache.
“We have no record of any elders go into that section of the forest during that time, nor was there any other mages that are B-Class or above.” The elder explained.
Xiao Yang looked at Qian Ching and asked, “Qian Ching, you can’t possibly think that I have the ability to kill four B-Class mages and a D-Class mage at the same time right?”
At the time of the discovery, rumours had already spread throughout the entire Thunderbolt City so it wasn’t weird for Xiao Yang to know the victims’ classes.
“Tch, who knows what kind of trap you tricked them into.”
“Alright, since there is no solid evidence that suggests Xiao Yang be related to the murder case, I hereby declare this case to be clos…” Before the elder got to finish his declaration, Xiao Yang suddenly shouted, “Wait!”
“Chen Xiao Yang do you have something that you wanted to say?” The elder continued to glare at him. If it was others then they would have inevitably been trembling by now, however, the person was none other than the reincarnated Grandmaster Chen.
“Yes, I do actually.”
“Then please speak”
Xiao Yang took a deep breath then shouted, “I, Chen Xiao Yang would like to accuse Qian Ching of causing unnecessary disruption to the class, and attempted assault of a junior student.”
“Mhm, indeed I almost forgot about that.” The elder then turned his gaze toward Qian Ching and asked, “Qian Ching how do you plead?”
Qian Ching face turned pale and he started to slightly tremble, “What…? No elder, I was trying to gain justice for my little brother.”
The elder angrily stated, “Qian Ching, I hereby sentence you to three-months in Thundermare Prison.”
“What? No, you should be sentencing him, he is the culprit behind those murderers.” Qian Ching shouted as he was being dragged away.
‘Are the two genius of the Qian family really this dumb?’ Xiao Yang thought as he shocked his head.
