Ning Meng and Shi Yu were overjoyed, and even Steel-Blood King Ning Bugui was amazed that Lin Xun was so lucky to have such treatment from the principal of Qinglu Academy.

The influential figures who had previously targeted Lin Xun stood rooted to the spot as if a thorn had been pierced into their backs, and their faces were glum.

None of them would have thought that Lin Xun would attract the attention of the principal. They, even more, didn’t think that the principal would expel Zhao Zhanye without any hesitation.

He wanted to show that he was taking Lin Xun’s side.

“Since all of you are here, I’m also curious about what Lin Xun did wrong to make you all come to my Qinglu Academy to punish him?” The principal spoke again, making the atmosphere even heavier.

Finally, an influential figure summoned the courage, took a deep breath, and said aloud,

“Principal, that kid once forced the Marquis of Rising Sky to kneel in public, and he insulted the dignity of the imperial family. How can such a serious crime be tolerated?”

“That kid has killed a member of my Zuo Clan and imprisoned Zuo Yang, a descendant of the Zuo Clan. He has to be seriously punished!” Zuo Fuguang said solemnly.

“He has also slaughtered many clansmen of my Qin Clan.”

“He forced Qi Yu, the direct descendant of the Qi Clan, on his knees the other day. He is arrogant and has committed countless evil deeds.”

“That kid is so audacious. He will become a great trouble if he isn’t taught a lesson.”

Many people spoke aloud, all of whom were from the Qin Clan, Qi Clan, Zuo Clan and other high clans. They refused to give up.

Everyone trembled inwardly upon hearing the accusations. Those influential figures each represented a monstrous clan!

The principal scanned the crowd as he asked. “Audacious? Are you talking about Lin Xun, or are you talking about yourself?” Wherever his gaze passed, no one dared to face him directly.

Someone gritted his teeth and asked, “Elder, you…”

“It’s very simple, since you keep saying that you want to settle accounts, why don’t we put an end to everything today and see who is the audacious one?!”

The principal spoke indifferently, but it was full of majesty. It sent everyone’s blood pulsing around their bodies, their spirit shaking, and their eardrums vibrating.

It fell utterly silent.

The principal possessed immeasurable strength, so even the great emperor wouldn’t dare to offend him easily. Who would dare challenge the principal?

“Since you believe that Lin Xun is innocent in those matters, then there is nothing for us to say! We will take our leave now!” Zuo Fuguang said indifferently, his voice containing a hint of anger.

“Hmph!” The principal snorted coldly, making Zuo Fuguang freeze on the spot. He didn’t dare to move an inch.

“Let me ask you one more question. What did Lin Xun do wrong? As long as you can give a reasonable reason, I will not interfere in this matter and let your Zuo Clan deal with Lin Xun!” the principal stated indifferently.

Zuo Fuguang’s countenance changed silently. He gritted his teeth and said, “He killed people of my Zuo Clan! Many people present know about this. Now, Zuo Yang is still imprisoned on the Lin Clan’s Mind Cleansing Peak. Did he do nothing wrong?”

“How dare you?!” the principal reprimanded. “If the Zuo and Qin Clans hadn’t invaded Mind Cleansing Peak, how would such a thing happen? You brought everything upon yourselves!”

Lin Xun realized that the principal already knew everything!

He felt a little touched because he realized that the old man had been paying attention to him.

Zuo Fuguang’s expression changed and just as he was about to say something, the principal waved dismissively. “Go, don’t make me pay your Zuo Clan a visit!”

His warning was like a bolt of lightning. Zuo Fuguang’s face blanched as he finally realized that the principal was determined to do everything to protect Lin Xun.

Zuo Fuguang turned around without a word and left.

He was the high and mighty Marquis of the Hundred Battles. He had fought on the battlefield for years and had slaughtered countless great enemies, but, facing the principal, he didn’t dare to say anything and left.

“I also have nothing to say here. Farewell.” Qin Baoji turned around and left with an overcast face.

Although Lin Xun was unwilling to let Zuo Fuguang and Qin Baoji leave so easily, he also knew that the principal wouldn’t deal with the two for him.

The remaining influential figures kept quiet, and no one mentioned their grudge against Lin Xun anymore.

“I heard that Lin Xun once had a grudge with the Hua Clan. I would like to resolve it. I wonder if there is room for negotiation?” The principal cast a glance at an influential figure of the Hua Clan.

It was a bearded middle-aged man called Hua Qingchi. He immediately said aloud, “Principal, there was indeed a little conflict, but it’s just a petty fight amongst the younger generation. Since the principal has spoken, we can leave the matter behind us.”

He was neither humble nor arrogant, but wisely expressed the Hua Family’s stance. They didn’t want to anger the principal because of Lin Xun.

“What do you think?” the principal asked Lin Xun.

How could Lin Xun not know what was good for him? He said aloud, “It was indeed just a little conflict. I had no intention of being hostile to the Hua Clan from the start.”

“Good.” The principal nodded and looked at Hua Qingchi. “Go back and tell the elders of your clan that they are welcome to come to the academy to discuss scriptures with me when they are free.”

Hua Qingchi’s face lit up. The elders of the Hua Clan would be delighted when they learned about the principal’s invitation.

Many people became envious. Lin Xun is so lucky. How can a young man like him receive the protection and favor of the principal of Qinglu Academy?

“That guy is so lucky…” Ning Meng also exclaimed.

“If you can cast a rune armament that can survive a lightning tribulation at the age of sixteen, you will also enjoy such treatments,” remarked Shi Yu.

“Then never mind. I’m not that abnormal.” Ning Meng shook his head.

The principal continued as he glanced at an influential figure of the Song Clan, “Did Lin Xun have a conflict with some juniors of the Song Clan?”

The influential figure of the Song Clan immediately said with a smile, “Elder, it's just a little argument amongst the younger generation. It’s nothing.”

Strictly speaking, Lin Xun had defeated both Song Zhe and Song Chonghe. They were in the wrong, so the Song Clan couldn’t pursue the matter further. Otherwise, they would lose face.

“Since that’s the case, why don’t you turn the hostility into friendship?” The principal glanced at Lin Xun.

“Whatever you say.” Lin Xun nodded.

He didn’t have any deep-seated hatred for the Song or Hua families, so it would be best if the conflict could be resolved.

Everyone marveled again. The principal had helped Lin Xun clear obstacles the moment he appeared. That alone showed how much importance he attached to Lin Xun.

Moreover, who else would dare to offend Lin Xun after they saw his relationship with the principal?

“Elder, I hope you understand, but my Chi Family has deep-seated hatred for the kid that can’t be resolved, so I will take my leave,” an influential figure of the Chi Family stated his stance before the principal could say anything, surprising many people.

Only a powerful high clan like the Chi Clan would dare to say that.

The principal didn’t seem the least annoyed. “Since that’s the case, good luck.”

Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief. In truth, he didn’t plan on working things out with the Chi Family. After all, the Chi Family had ambushed and attacked him multiple times before he arrived at the Forbidden City. It was impossible to melt the deep grudge like ice!

“My Qi Family has the same stance as the Chi Family, but my Qi Family will not bully a junior. I will leave the conflicts between the younger generation for them to settle themselves,” stated an influential figure of the Qi Family.

The principal nodded. “Good.”

Lin Xun thought of Qi Yu, whom he forced to his knees, and couldn’t help but smile to himself. He wasn’t the least bit afraid if the matter was left to the younger generation to settle amongst themselves.

So far, Zhao Zhanye had been expelled, the Zuo Clan and the Qin Clan had swallowed their anger and left, and the grudge between the Hua Clan and the Song Clan and Lin Xun had been put behind them. The Chi Clan had stated that they wouldn’t leave the matter at that, and the Qi Clan had made a decision to let the younger generation settle the matter amongst themselves.

The principal had helped Lin Xun resolve many problems with just a few words. He also helped Lin Xun see clearly who the real hostile forces were.

”You don’t need to look at me. I can’t make any decisions on behalf of the imperial family. I’m just here to join in the fun,” Sea Subdue King Zhao Jiuxiao stated out loud when he noticed the principal’s gaze.

He had always wanted to be a spectator.

But then, he changed his tone, “Of course, I am personally very happy to see the growth of a young rune grandmaster.”

Everyone was taken aback. Even if Lin Xun couldn’t receive the understanding of everyone in the imperial family, he had won the favor and recognition of Sea Subdue King Zhao Jiuxiao!

Chu Shanhe was extremely bitter. He felt uncomfortable and uneasy standing there. He wanted to leave and disappear because all his allies had either collapsed or been suppressed by the principal.

At that moment, Chu Shanhe inadvertently noticed Lin Xun casting a glance at him and the corners of the youth’s lips had curved in a cold smile.

Chu Shanhe’s heart sank. He had a bad premonition.

Lin Xun said solemnly, “Elder, there is something that I want to ask you to get justice for me.”

“What’s the matter?” asked the principal.

Lin Xun glanced at Chu Shanhe. The older man’s face had become visibly paler, and his body had stiffened. Chu Shanhe’s hair stood on end as he knew what Lin Xun wanted to do.

“While I was casting a rune armament, I noticed that the Azure Sky Furnace had been tampered with, and it almost caused me to fail at crafting my rune armament. I hope Elder will investigate this matter and find the culprit. Please help me get justice!”

Chu Shanhe’s head buzzed and his soul almost left his body as if lightning had struck him. As expected, he’d been exposed…
