Chapter 898: Public Execution 2
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“On the seventh day of the new year, you bumped into a disciple while walking.
You didn’t apologize and blamed your fellow disciple for not giving way to you. The disciple, Yang Jing, had the intention to report you, but you threatened him that you were someone I valued and asked him if he dared to disrespect me.
On the 11th of February, I ordered the four of you to find the Wei Yang Zi Grass. Jiang Wanlin, Fang Lan, and Wang Mingyue all went into the mountains to search for it for hours. You forced Bai Xiaofang to give you what she found. Under your coercion, Bai Xiaofang did not dare to become enemies with you and handed over her results to you. She herself was punished.
February 20th…
9th of March…”
Every time Su Xiaolu said something, Mu Feng’s face turned paler. He was surprised and panic appeared on his face. He could not imagine how Su Xiaolu knew everything he had done.
If she knew so early, why didn’t she say anything? Why?
Mu Feng was about to go crazy. What he had imagined did not happen. Before he could even open his mouth to refute, he was suffocated by Su Xiaolu’s announcement of his crimes. He did not even understand his initial crimes.
Su Xiaolu looked at Mu Feng in disdain and said coldly, “Mu Feng, did I slander you with everything I said? Do you admit to these?”
Mu Feng was extremely flustered. He was afraid and hateful. He did not know what he could do. The power and schemes he had learned did not tell him what to do in such a situation.
In the face of absolute terrifying power, these were useless. It only made people feel that it was an ugly joke.
In his panic, Mu Feng opened his mouth and stammered, unable to say anything. The sweat on his face had drenched his hair, and his pale face looked even more terrifying than a dead person.
Su Xiaolu looked at him with disgust. She did not hide her disgust for Mu Feng at all.
Mu Feng had yet to think of a way to deal with it. Those disciples that Su Xiaolu had mentioned already came to confirm it.
They were already oppressed. In addition, they were actually not old. They were angry but did not dare to say anything. Even if many fair rules of the academy were set up, they did not dare to complain and had scruples. But now that there was a chance, they did not hesitate to vent the grievances they had suppressed in their hearts.
Mu Feng knelt down weakly. His mind was blank. His only rationality made him understand that he was done for. Everything was done for.
This was a public execution. He did not even dare to refute because he had no grievances at all. The only thing he could do was admit it, beg for mercy, and let the matter pass.
“I, I confess. I was wrong. Teacher, please give me a chance to change. I took the wrong path on impulse. My family background is rich, and I’ve been an arrogant person since I was young. Even though there are rules in the academy, pride is engraved in my bones. With such a sense of superiority, I’m not the only one who will do such a thing. No matter what punishment it is, I’ll accept it. I’m not a saint or a sage. Who hasn’t made mistakes? To realize one’s mistake and be able to correct it is the greatest virtue!”
Mu Feng kowtowed heavily and said with tears streaming down his face. He understood too well that strength was very important. He had to stay. It didn’t matter if he didn’t have any Master in the future. Only by staying could he come into contact with more knowledge and become stronger.
“President Zhou, Teacher Su, please give me a chance to be an example for my future Brothers and Sisters. I’m only 15 years old. There might be many more of me in the future. It’s not scary for people to make mistakes. Everyone in the world will make mistakes. It’s a good thing as long as they know how to change.”
He was good at scheming. This was the only way he could think of after calming down. He could use it to incite the public’s sympathy, pretend to be a weak person, cry and beg for mercy, and say that he knew his mistake. For now, he was just a young man who had done something wrong and was repentant. He only needed a chance to change.
“You’re wrong. The greatest virtue of knowing one’s mistakes and changing are reserved for people who truly recognise their mistakes, not someone as hypocritical and treacherous as you. You’re engaged to Jiang Wanlin, and she treats you well. Her family also treats you well. However, what did you do? You wanted to harm her life just because Jiang Wanlin wanted to break off the engagement with you. It’s a huge joke if you say that you really know your mistake.”
Su Xiaolu mocked coldly, blocking Mu Feng’s way out again.
Mu Feng looked at Su Xiaolu in disbelief. He said in pain, “Teacher Su, I admit that I picked up Jiang Wanlin’s results and had the intention to take them for myself, but I definitely didn’t want to harm her. At that time, I only wanted to save her. It was just that the demon was causing trouble. I wanted to, but I was powerless. Teacher knew that it was dangerous, but you didn’t care about us. If you were there at that time, perhaps things wouldn’t have been like that. I took Jiang Wanlin’s results because I wanted to take Teacher as my master. Is it wrong for me to have a competitive heart? Let me ask all the Senior Brothers and Sisters present, who doesn’t want to take the strong as their master? The opportunity is fleeting. Who can guarantee that they won’t make a mistake?”
Mu Feng told half of the truth and half lied. His words were sincere and touching.
Some older teachers were already moved. They were all famous scholars in their own fields. Which of them didn’t have naughty descendants?
They were used to seeing big waves and schemes. They didn’t think it was a big mistake for Mu Feng to take advantage of the situation.
“You’re lying. You clearly want to kill Jiang Wanlin. With the runes given by the teacher, nothing would have happened. Fang Lan can save Jiang Wanlin by taking one rune. You took four of them, but you said that you’re exhausted.” Wang Mingyue mustered her courage and stood up.
Fang Lan also stood up and said, “I can testify that Wang Mingyue is right. At that time, I took out a rune and went into the water. I didn’t feel much resistance. If it was someone who was good at swimming, they could easily save two people.”
Mu Feng’s face was pale. He lowered his head and said, “I lied. I like Chen Lian. I’m actually not good at swimming. I know that none of you like Chen Lian. I was afraid that you wouldn’t save her, so I did that. I’m engaged to Jiang
Wanlin. I’m sorry to her. It’s only right for her to break off the engagement.
She’s no longer in my heart. I can’t watch my beloved die in front of me. I’ve let
Jiang Wanlin down. I can only repay it in my next life.”
Mu Feng had found the only way out, so how could he let it go? Half real and half fake explanations were the best.
Human nature had weaknesses. Everyone had selfishness in their hearts. He had found excuses for all the wrongs he had done.
He bullied his fellow disciples because he was too arrogant and took Jiang Wanlin’s results for himself. He wanted to win. He left Jiang Wanlin in the lurch because he loved Chen Lian. Everything was his selfishness. He had done something wrong, but if it were anyone else, they would inevitably do the same.
“That’s a good explanation, but is that really the case?”
Su Xiaolu said coldly with a mocking smile..
