Chapter 280 Counterattack
"Yu Zhengchu, don't speak to me in that tone."
Zhou Fuchen's face was gloomy, and Yu Zhengchu's tone at this time was as if he was interrogating a prisoner.
Even though the other party had a higher status than him, it still made him extremely unhappy.
"It's not my tone that's the problem now, it's that you have to think carefully about how to prove that you haven't been bribed."
Yu Zhengchu was unmoved and said coldly.
Normally he wouldn't be so suspicious, but a Bei Hongguang had appeared not long ago, so he couldn't help but be more vigilant.
"It's ridiculous, Yu Zhengchu, you are the vice president, and so am I. Don't think that you are the only master of the college. I have served Qixing College for twenty-three years, and I can learn from the sun and the moon sincerely."
Zhou Fuchen looked full of grief and anger, "I, Zhou Fuchen, swear here that if I am bribed by someone, I would rather be struck by thunder than die a good death."
After hearing this, the expressions of the senior officials of Yu Zheng Junior College softened slightly.
The doubts in the eyes of the onlookers around him also dissipated a lot.
In Lingwu Continent, oaths are taken very seriously, especially among warriors, who practice against nature and dare not swear randomly.
Zhou Fuchen dared to swear such a poisonous oath. It seemed that he was indeed not bribed.
"Brother Fushen, let me apologize to you first, but these are extraordinary times, and I hope you can understand."
Yu Zhengchu let out a long sigh, "There are indeed too many doubts about your behavior just now. It would be good for you to explain it clearly, wouldn't it?"
"Okay, since you said that, how about I explain it."
Zhou Fuchen said angrily, "The current situation, in my opinion, is just that we and the crusade alliance have too deep a misunderstanding. As long as the misunderstanding between the two parties is eliminated, all crises will also collapse."
"However, if Lin Mu had killed Bei Hongguang just now and wanted to kill Fang Li to see what he wanted, then it would not be a misunderstanding, but real hatred. After all, Bei Hongguang and Fang Li are not ordinary people. They are members of the Fang family. A highly valued talent.”
"So you stopped Lin Mu to prevent misunderstanding from turning into real hatred?"
The suspicion on Yu Zhengchu's face became lighter, "But you shouldn't attack Lin Mu secretly. If you hurt him, wouldn't it be painful for your loved ones and happy for your enemies?"
"I had shouted to him to stop beforehand, but he didn't listen, and that was the only way to make him stop."
Zhou Fuchen said confidently, "Besides, he wasn't injured, wasn't he? I acted in a measured way, I just stopped him."
Lin Mu felt the killing intent surge in his heart. Zhou Fuchen had clearly shown no mercy just now and wanted to kill him. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been killed.
It's better now. When the other party opens his mouth, it means that he has made a measured move.
However, no one else knows the truth.
With the previous poisonous oath and the explanation at this moment, most people no longer doubt Zhou Fusheng.
After all, Zhou Fuchen is indeed the vice president of Seven Star College and has been loyal to the college for more than 20 years. If his previous behavior had not been too suspicious, no one would have any doubts.
"Now that I've finished talking about my business, I have to talk about Lin Mu's evil deed."
Zhou Fuchen obviously caught everyone's psychology and didn't give up. "You think I'm suspicious, but I think he's ten thousand times more suspicious than me."
"Um?"
Yu Zhengchu said displeasedly, "Brother Fushen, what do you mean by this?"
"As I said just now, there is no irresolvable hatred between us and the Crusade Alliance. But if Lin Mu, the evildoer, kills Yun Hongguang or hurts Fang Li, then the misunderstanding will turn into a deep hatred."
Zhou Fuchen smiled solemnly, "Moreover, I called him to stop, but he turned a deaf ear. I think he clearly wanted to take the opportunity to provoke hatred between the two sides and deliberately put our Seven Star Academy in danger."
"Brother Fushen, you are exaggerating."
Another vice-president said, "I think Lin Mu is just a young and passionate man who acted impulsively. It's not like he betrayed the college."
If he were an ordinary student, Zhou Fushen would be punished if he wanted to.
But Lin Mu was different. He had amazing talent. Even the joint efforts of Fang Li and Yun Hongguang had been defeated just now. This kind of talent could not be discarded casually.
"Is it?"
Zhou Fuchen turned to look at Lin Mu sinisterly, "Then I would like to ask, in the past half month, the college has been in crisis and it is when it needs people, but you have been hiding. Why do you suddenly appear now?"
"Zhou Fushen, you are the vice president after all. Even if you want to slander me, can you use some clever means?"
Lin Mu is no longer what he used to be. He quickly controlled his anger and mocked softly, "Don't tell me. Dean Liu didn't tell you my whereabouts?"
"Yes, although Brother Nanshan is injured and is unable to come forward, he did tell us before that Lin Mu will practice with Lao Xing."
The master of Kaiyang courtyard interjected.
"I know about seclusion, but what kind of practice takes half a month? And it just happened to show up today, and then kill Bei Hongguang and Fang Li as soon as they show up?"
Zhou Fuchen said calmly, "What's more, Mr. Xing is seriously injured now and can't come out. In the past half month, have you been with him all the time? Isn't it just what you say?"
Hearing this, many people in Seven Star Academy looked dark.
Xing Lao was seriously injured, which deprived the academy of a powerful trump card. If not, the major forces would not have dared to attack Seven Star Academy easily.
Lin Mu's eyes turned cold. Now that the academy is fighting against the crusade alliance, it is the time when morale needs to be boosted.
Zhou Fushen said such words at this time, which shook the morale of the army and clearly had bad intentions.
Previously, Zhou Fuchen swore a poisonous oath, and even Lin Mu was shaken, almost believing that he was really doing the best for the college. At this moment, it was further confirmed that even if Fushen had not betrayed the academy this week, he probably had some interest in the crusade alliance.
"Zhou Fushen, do you also know that Mr. Xing was seriously injured?"
Thoughts were flashing in his mind, but Lin Mu remained calm and said in a cold voice, "Don't you know that Elder Xing's injury was caused by the crusade alliance that you said was just a misunderstanding with my Seven Star Academy?"
"The masters of the Qiao family and Nanping Villa teamed up to severely injure Mr. Xing, and now they have formed a crusade alliance, which has hurt countless teachers and students in our college. In your words, it is just a misunderstanding?"
"And I just made a counterattack and wanted to hurt the opponent's elite, so you stepped in to stop me. Zhou Fushen, you, the vice president of Seven Stars College, are really competent at your job."
"this……"
Many senior college officials couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
In fact, it's not that they don't know this truth. I'm afraid it's not a misunderstanding among the crusade alliance and Seven Stars Academy, but that the major forces in the crusade alliance have been planning for a long time.
It's just that this matter involves the survival of the college, so they can't help but take chances, but Lin Mu reveals it with just one word.
Yu Zhengchu also felt depressed. He had a very high status in the academy, second only to the dean.
But this status comes from his alchemy skills. His own strength and conspiracy methods are very average. When encountering this kind of thing, he is already helpless.
