Qiu Zeyu wrapped his arms around Shan Jingfei and said sympathetically, “You’re such a kind girl! After what they did to you, you’re still trying to cover for them. They don’t deserve you!

“How evil are they? How could they do this to you?!”

Qiu Zeyu genuinely felt sorry for her.

What he didn’t know was how much his words disgusted Feng Wu and the others.

Shan Jingfei cried even louder.

Qiu Zeyu felt even more sympathetic. Seeing that Shan Jingfei wouldn’t name anyone, he turned to Cui Ping and Wu Qing.

“Speak!” Qiu Zeyu glared at them. “I’m going to make you pay for what you did to my baby!”

Wu Qing snorted. “Qiu Zeyu, just because you’re a member of the second-seeded team doesn’t mean you can deal out justice. We have rules!”

Cui Ping chimed in, “There’s justice in this world, and evil people will get what they deserve! If I were you, I would take a closer look at the woman in your arms!”

Qiu Zeyu had expected them to drop to their knees and beg for his forgiveness, but he couldn’t be any more wrong.

Feeling the girl tremble in his arms, Qiu Zeyu patted her on the back and said softly, “Don’t be afraid. I’ll right the wrong for you. I won’t let anyone harm you.”

After that, he looked at Cui Ping and Wu Qing again.

The next second, he took action.

He reached for Cui Ping’s throat.

Cui Ping was terrified.

He was much weaker than Qiu Zeyu and didn’t have the skill to dodge the attack.

It happened quicker than words could describe!

Mr. Duan stepped in. “We don’t have time for this! Stop it, all of you!”

Qiu Zeyu didn’t want to stop. “Mr. Yang, if I don’t punish them now, I can’t promise what I’ll do to them later.”

Mr. Duan frowned. Was Qiu Zeyu threatening him?

Cui Ping smirked. “Shan Jingfei almost got Ye Hongxue and Lin Juncheng killed. There! I said it!”

“No, I didn’t!”

Of course, Shan Jingfei wasn’t going to admit it in front of so many people. She denied it right away.

But everyone heard what Cui Ping said.

Mr. Duan frowned. “We’ll talk about it later. Don’t block that door. It’s the entrance to the Secret Essence Mine. Who knows when the wind will come back?”

Gongsun Mu nodded as well. “Go back to the school! We’ll deal with it later!”

While everyone was heading back, Feng Wu noticed an old man heading into the mine.

“Hey!”

Feng Wu stopped him. “Are you out of your mind? Don’t you know how dangerous it is inside? You can’t go in on your own! There are 80,000 tunnels and countless Spirit Stone Worms inside!”

Elder Mei gave her a strange look.

So did the others.

He was Elder Mei!

He was a prominent figure of the empire and a Level 8 formation master! How could a student talk to him that way?

Zuo Qingluan was secretly pleased to see Feng Wu make a fool of herself. She thought that Feng Wu was about to die.
