Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 254 - 253: Two People, Three Months of Confinement

Chapter 254: Chapter 253: Two People, Three Months of Confinement

After arriving at the Mountain Sea Academy, Shen Ye had never been scolded like this before.

The reputation of being a prodigy, accomplished in both literature and martial arts.

In the years Shen Ye spent at the Mountain Sea Academy, there was never a chance to get scolded.

Vaguely, he still couldn’t accept it.

Even when he returned to his own courtyard, the scene of being scolded replayed in his mind.

"Whatever grievances or grudges exist within your Shen Family, outsiders like us cannot intervene.

The Mountain Sea Academy cannot intervene either.

If you want to take action against your family members, then don’t use the name of the Mountain Sea Academy.

This time, using the name of the Mountain Sea Academy to act is one thing.

Losing doesn’t matter, the Mountain Sea Academy can afford a single defeat.

But those sneaky tactics of yours truly tarnish your reputation as a prodigy."

When the Mountain Sea Dean said these words, his language was very severe.

In truth, there were some things he hadn’t explicitly stated.

Shen Ye’s master, Luo Zuchen, seemed fearless in the Capital City, but in reality, he found it difficult to progress further.

No one was willing to become close to him.

Forming a faction of his own was even more impossible.

If you don’t follow the rules and don’t adhere to moral principles, no one will cooperate with you in the future.

In front of Luo Zuchen, the Mountain Sea Dean did not point these out.

He could only hope that Shen Ye would understand this reasoning himself.

Don’t think that being arrogant and overbearing is something impressive, that everyone in the world will be intimidated, letting you have your way.

Before leaving, the Mountain Sea Dean even imposed a punishment on the master and disciple.

Luo Zuchen and Shen Ye were both confined for three months.

During these three months, they were to transcribe the Ritual Records of Great Wei a hundred times.

Even the always arrogant Luo Zuchen didn’t dare to act arrogantly in front of his dean.

He lowered his head obediently.

The master and disciple chose to be confined in Shen Ye’s courtyard.

At this moment, he had already summoned two clones to transcribe the Ritual Records for himself and Luo Zuchen.

Such a thick tome, who knows how long it will take to transcribe it a hundred times...

In the courtyard, the faces of Luo Zuchen and Shen Ye looked very unpleasant.

"The news just came in that Shen Han has already recovered. The injuries he suffered were minor."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye’s face darkened even more.

After all the effort, it turned out to have no impact on Shen Han.

Because of losing to him, Shen Han was even more valued by Tianyi Academy.

Even the reward from the academy’s competition, the Celestial Phoenix Stone, was gained by Shen Han...

Truly, he hadn’t gained any advantage at all.

"Ye’Er, although we, as master and disciple, had long considered striking first.

But judging from this competition, we have still underestimated him.

This Shen Han is truly a master at hiding his strength.

He obviously had the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm strength long ago, yet he has kept it hidden.

Even the people from Tianyi Academy were unaware."

Indeed, Shen Ye suffered a loss in this regard this time.

If he had known earlier that Shen Han was at the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm, Shen Ye might have improved his plan.

"Ye’Er, do you think that Shen Han might still be hiding his strength now?

Could he possibly have already reached the Fifth Grade?"

Luo Zuchen pondered as he asked, but when he said this, he himself found it hard to believe.

"Forget it, it’s not worth bothering about these uncertainties.

After the confinement ends, I’ll find an opportunity—- even if my foundation is destroyed, I, Luo Zuchen, will eliminate this scourge.

To save myself from future trouble."

Nineteen years old, Sixth Grade Fruit Realm.

With this level of strength, barring any major accidents, this talent and potential are almost certain to step into the Immortal Realm.

If he were to wait for Shen Han to enter the Immortal Realm and then seek revenge, Luo Zuchen would have no good days ahead.

The master and disciple sat in the room, with Luo Zuchen still thinking about Shen Han in his mind.

"Ye’Er, what do you know about your cousin Shen Han?"

Upon hearing Luo Zuchen’s question, Shen Ye could only shake his head.

"Back when he was in the Shen Mansion in Yun’an City, he was not remarkable, wouldn’t speak in front of others.

He wasn’t valued in the mansion either, and it seems we never even spoke to each other.

And at that time, he showed no sign of any talent."

Shen Ye frowned and recounted everything he knew to Luo Zuchen.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zuchen had more thoughts arise in his heart.

"Ye’Er, do you think Shen Han encountered some extraordinary encounter?

Otherwise, how could he have grown so quickly?"

The world is unpredictable, and many people have encounters.

But Luo Zuchen’s mention of an extraordinary encounter made Shen Ye involuntarily tilt his head.

"You must have seen it during the competition. With one move, Shen Han could summon hundreds of sword shadows.

I have gone through numerous records but have never seen such a cultivation technique.

There isn’t a Sword Dao Master this strong within Tianyi Academy.

The origin of Shen Han’s sword technique is questionable."

Luo Zuchen stopped for a moment, then continued speaking as he looked at Shen Ye.

"On the day of the competition, I saw with my own eyes that Shen Han clearly had countless wounds.

Even if the injuries weren’t severe, he shouldn’t have recovered so quickly.

This recovery ability rivals even mine."

Hearing this, Shen Ye seemed to grasp the implication behind Luo Zuchen’s words.

"Mr. Luo, are you suggesting that Shen Han also possesses a Spirit Bone?"

Luo Zuchen frowned, neither confirming nor denying.

"It’s hard to determine now, but this Shen Han is indeed somewhat peculiar.

In any case, I have long harbored murderous intent towards him.

That day during the academy’s grand competition, he even said those things in front of everyone.

Find an opportunity to deal with him, and the encounters on him will become Ye’Er’s chance."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye’s eyes slightly brightened.

It seemed to make sense; fortune and misfortune are always intertwined.

Perhaps Shen Han seemed troublesome, but in reality, he might be delivering opportunities to him.

The three months could be considered a closed-door cultivation period.

Once the three months are over, Luo Zuchen would settle this matter completely.

...

Four days after the academy competition ended.

Patriarch Shen didn’t know how many times this year he had returned to Yun’an City.

But if he didn’t return, he couldn’t contain his anxiety.

Leading a group of people, he arrived at the Shen Mansion at 5:00 PM.

"Where is Madam Shen!"

The first thing Shen Qingshan did upon returning home was to seek out Madam Shen.

Upon hearing his question, the servants in the mansion hurriedly replied timidly.

"Madam He has already communicated with Madam Shen, and she might return to the mansion tonight..."

"Alright, then I shall wait at the mansion’s entrance for Madam Shen to return."

That night, Madam Shen did not return to the mansion.

Patriarch Shen, Shen Qingshan, truly waited at the entrance all night.

Everyone around him could feel the anger emanating from him...

Until dawn, when the sun rose.

A luxurious carriage finally approached the Shen Mansion leisurely.

When the driver saw Shen Qingshan waiting at the gate, he didn’t dare move his hand holding the reins.
