The next day.
An eye-popping news quickly spread throughout Chixiao Academy.
"Did you hear about it? Elder Chu Yun of the Medicine Hall revealed to the Discipline Hall that Ling Fenggu and others poisoned Lu Lan! He also said that the mastermind behind it was Wu Tianming!"
"How is it possible? How could Senior Brother Ling and Senior Brother Wu be that kind of people?"
"I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard that Senior Brother Wu is already at the Discipline Hall...yes or no, the results will be out soon."
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go to the Discipline Hall!"
When the news spread extremely hotly in the academy, in the Discipline Hall.
Lu Lan and Wu Tianming stood on the left and right sides of the center of the Discipline Hall.
Ling Feng, Gu and the others knelt in front of them.
The three elders of the Discipline Hall sat directly opposite them, responsible for determining the authenticity of this incident.
Just when one of the elders was about to interrogate Ling Feng, Gu and the others, Peng Gu suddenly broke in from outside the Discipline Hall.
When he saw Ling Fenggu kneeling on the ground, he rushed over anxiously, but was stopped by the guard on the side.
"Elder Lu! My disciple was wronged! There is no way he would poison someone!"
He pointed at Lu Lan and roared: "He is definitely framing my disciple! You should put him in the dungeon!"
Hearing this, Lu Lan sneered and said:
"Old guy, you slandered others in front of the three discipline elders. Do you also want to accompany your apprentice into the dungeon?"
Peng Gu stared at Lu Lan, as if he wanted to kill someone: "This matter has absolutely nothing to do with my disciple! It's impossible for him to poison and kill someone!"
"Haha, I didn't expect that an old guy like you would trust your apprentice so much... Unfortunately, your apprentice still let you down after all."
Lu Lan turned to look at Wu Tianming and sneered:
"Your good apprentice has now become someone else's lackey. He is no longer the Ling Fenggu you originally knew."
Upon hearing this, Wu Tianming, who had been silent from the beginning, raised his eyes and glanced sideways at Lu Lan, and said coldly:
"I said, I have nothing to do with them, and I have no idea what they are going to do."
Wu Tianming was not worried at all that he would be exposed.
Because he knew very well that with the power of the Wu family behind him, if Ling Feng and Gu and the others dared to expose the relationship between them, the three of them would immediately suffer disaster!
So he didn't think Ling Feng, Gu and the others had the guts to accuse him of being the mastermind behind the scenes.
"There's no need to be so hasty to clear up the relationship. We'll soon find out whether it's you or not."
Lu Lan chuckled lightly, turned to look at Elder Lu, and bowed: "Now Elder Lu can question the three of them."
Elder Lu nodded and asked directly:
"Ling Fenggu, the three of you poisoned Lu Lan with the intention of killing him. Is this true or false? You must tell the truth and not lie!"
Ling Feng, Gu and the others hesitated for a moment, then all said, "Yes."
"What! This, how is this possible?!"
Hearing Ling Fenggu's admission, Peng Gu felt as if the world was spinning before his eyes and he almost fell to the ground.
He couldn't believe that his proudest disciple would actually do such a thing!
Elder Lu's expression also became gloomy.
Because Lin Zhu is his apprentice!
Soon, Elder Lu suppressed his emotions and asked again: "Did someone instruct you to poison Lu Lan? If so, was it Wu Tianming behind you?"
At this time, Lin Zhu and Lu Youquan did not dare to say anything at all, and they all turned to look at Ling Fenggu.
Ling Fenggu trembled all over.
He could feel that behind him, two eyes that looked like they could kill fell on him, making him sweat for a while and his whole body was trembling.
His lips trembled for a long time, and suddenly he remembered the torture Lu Lan inflicted on him last night.
Finally, he became cruel and gritted his teeth and said:
"Yes! It's Wu Tianming!"
"He was the one who ordered us to poison Lu Lan!"
Upon hearing Ling Feng's identification in court, Wu Tianming's face instantly turned livid.
If this wasn't the Discipline Hall, Wu Tianming would definitely kill Ling Fenggu on the spot!
He suppressed the anger in his heart and his voice was extremely cold:
"Ling Fenggu! Do you know what you are talking about?"
"You'd better tell the 'truth' instead of falsely accusing me."
"Otherwise, I will definitely make your life worse than death!"
"Are you threatening him?"
Lu Lan sneered: "It seems that you are the mastermind behind this."
"Shut up!"
Wu Tianming stared at Lu Lan: "What on earth did you do! Let them frame me like this!"
"Whether it's a frame-up or not, you know it yourself."
Lu Lan sneered, turned to look at Elder Lu, and said:
"Elder Lu, can we proceed with the punishment now?"
Elder Lu frowned, feeling a little tangled in his heart.
Poisoning someone to kill someone would definitely lead to him being locked up in a dungeon forever.
Fortunately, Ling Feng, Gu and the other two people didn't have any backgrounds, so he didn't need to worry too much.
He doesn't only have Lin Zhu as his disciple, so he can completely abandon him.
Only Wu Tianming...
He is the young master of the Wu family!
How to deal with him is the most troublesome question.
After a long time, the three discipline elders issued an ultimatum together.
Ling Feng and Gu were deprived of their status as academy disciples and imprisoned in the dungeon forever.
Although Wu Tianming was the main conspirator, he was not directly involved in the matter from beginning to end, so he was only imprisoned in the dungeon for seven days as punishment.
Due to the Wu family's momentum, this was the best way they could think of.
Even so, Wu Tianming's face was as dark as coal.
He knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion and he could not escape.
He stared at Lu Lan and said in a cold voice:
"Lu Lan...I remember you. When I come out, you will definitely die!"
"Ha," Lu Lan sneered, "I'll wait."
Soon, Wu Tianming and Ling Fenggu were all taken away.
Elder Lu glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice:
"The verdict of this incident has been announced to everyone in the academy, but the disciples of the academy must be strictly prohibited from spreading the news outside the academy."
"If there is any violation, the penalty will be three hundred rods and one month of confinement!"
Once this incident spreads throughout Baitao City, it will definitely make the Wu family lose face.
Once the Wu family gets angry, even their Chixiao Academy will have to stay away.
Seeing Ling Fenggu being taken away, Peng Gu cast a sinister look at Lu Lan's back and walked out with heavy steps.
The news that Wu Tianming had entered the dungeon spread quickly to every corner of Chixiao Academy like a prairie fire.
Although the entire academy is discussing this matter, no one dares to spread the news due to the orders from the Discipline Hall.
However, they all knew that this news could never be hidden from the Wu family.
Once they learn about this, the Wu family will definitely be extremely angry!
By then, Lu Lan will definitely not survive long!
