Ultimate Scheming System

The Heaven Palace Academy’s courtyard was located in the middle of a group of mountains, floating atop the clouds.

As far as the eye could see, it seemed like an auspicious land surrounded by countless mountains, and these mountains resembled stars clustered around the moon and looking up at it. However, the ancestral tomb’s mountain was an exception, as it was unusually high. This mountain wasn’t beneath the Heaven Palace Academy like the others. It seemed as if the academy leaned against it.

Xu Que’s group left the ancestral tomb and soared up into the sky. They flew toward the Heaven Palace Academy up in the clouds.

The Heaven Palace Academy was faintly discernible among the clouds and mist, and many archaic buildings could be seen there, as well as all the Heaven Palace Academy’s disciples who wore white clothes. Those disciples steered their magical weapons and flew through the air with their clothes fluttering in the wind. They seemed like true celestials!

The arrival of Xu Que’s group attracted the attention of the disciples guarding the mountain.

“Stop, this is a strategic location of the Heaven Palace Academy’s back mountain. Stop quickly,” someone shouted sharply.

“Why the h*ll should we stop? Open your eyes wide and have a clear look at us. The Heaven Palace Academy’s Deputy Dean, Xu Que’s father, has arrived, so why don’t you ask all the disciples to assemble here and greet him?” Buttface put both his paws on his waist and shouted imposingly. His sonorous voice reverberated everywhere!

The Heaven Palace Academy’s disciples in the vicinity were taken aback for a moment, before a raucous noise arose among them.

“F*ck! That dog has come once again.”

“There is Xu Que’s father, they have all come over.”

“Ha, ha, the underworld has no gate, yet you have still intruded into it. Our Heaven Palace Academy has put out an arrest warrant for you, yet you still dared to walk right into our trap. Why don’t you quickly surrender?”

Many people came out of the Heaven Palace Academy and shouted at Xu Que’s group that was still up in the air. They were ready to attack at any moment!

According to Xu Que’s former conduct, if he faced such a situation he would first fight to put those people down, before revealing his status to show off.

But since a large number of the Heaven Palace Academy’s members revealed their hostility to Xu Que, Xu Que could clearly detect that the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels had started getting restless, and they really wanted to rush out to fight. Xu Que was scared by this situation!

“Stop, stop, stop! D*mn it! Two ancestors, please don’t come out! I have only a little amount of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, and it isn’t enough for you to play around as you want.”

Xu Que quickly used a Magic Art to seal the Firestorm Wheels. Even though Xu Que was aware that such a Magic Art was useless against the two souls, it could still stall them for a moment. So in that moment he quickly took out the badge given to him by Li Qinghe and raised it high.

“You are so presumptuous! I am the Heaven Palace Academy’s new Deputy Dean. You have already seen my Dean Badge, so why don’t you quickly kneel down,” Xu Que shouted in a deep voice, while a great imposing manner emanated from him, and swept the surroundings. It rivaled the Heavenly Might’s descent!

Upon witnessing such a badge, the large crowd of the Heaven Palace Academy’s disciples was dumbfounded, and they found this matter hard to believe.

“Deputy Dean’s badge?”

“Oh, my God, is it genuine?”

“The Dean’s personal imprint is on it, and its aura is compatible with this old man. It’s obvious that it’s the Dean who issued it. No one could falsify such a matter.”

“What…what is happening?”

“Didn’t we put out an arrest order for him previously? Why did he become our Deputy Dean in such a short while?”

All the disciples wore startled looks and regarded each other with dismay. They were dumbfounded and couldn’t make sense of the current situation.

But they restrained their killing intent, and that was why the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels calmed down once again.

At this moment, Xu Que heaved a sigh of relief and spoke coldly, “You should listen to me clearly. From this day onward, I am the Deputy Dean. Once Dean Lin comes back, he will surely explain everything clearly to you. But if someone doesn’t believe it and disrespects his superior, he will be killed.”

Xu Que’s voice reverberated everywhere and fell upon everyone’s ears. It was as deafening as the rumble of divine thunder.

The numerous Heaven Palace Academy disciples all wore startled looks.

COUGH! COUGH! “Elder…Deputy Dean Xu? According to the Heaven Palace Academy’s rules, if someone disrespects his superiors, he would just have to suffer ten strikes of a Lightning Rod and sit in meditation while facing the wall for two years. His crime isn’t so grave that he deserves capital punishment,” a disciple shouted.

“Presumptuous! You still dare to talk back?”

Xu Que’s eyes swept the region and looked at that disciple. He said in a deep voice, “From this day onward, the academy’s rules are changed. If one disrespects his superiors, he will be killed. You already disrespected me a while ago, but since I have just assumed the Deputy Dean position, I will give you another chance. But next time, you will be punished severely.”

“Understood!” Upon hearing Xu Que’s words, the disciple’s face turned pale, and he quickly knelt on the ground.

When the other people witnessed this, they frowned, but some of them still knelt down and saluted Xu Que.

At this moment, everyone believed clearly that Xu Que’s status as Deputy Dean was genuine. After all, no one could counterfeit the badge because it had the Dean’s newly carved imprint that was compatible with Xu Que’s aura. This demonstrated that the Dean had issued the badge, because if he hadn’t, the imprint wouldn’t be compatible with Xu Que’s aura.

Such factors were enough to demonstrate that Xu Que’s status as Deputy Dean was genuine, and no one here dared to question him.

But there were still a group of young disciples who stood expressionlessly, before they turned around slowly and left.

It could be easily discerned that those people were prideful, and they were surely some great factions’ descendants. They wouldn’t easily kneel to other people. This was especially the case since Xu Que, through the use of the Disguise Puppet, had the appearance of a sickly old man at the Half-Celestial Stage, even though Xu Que’s true cultivation level had reached the Earth Celestial Medium Stage.

This was also the reason why many Heaven Palace Academy disciples were confused. Many thoughts and questions were going through their heads. “What was going on with the Dean? Why had he suddenly assigned another Deputy Dean, and why to a criminal wanted by the Heaven Palace Academy?”

“Didn’t it seem as if they had just insulted and disgraced themselves?”

“Hold on, this matter is too fishy. Could it be that Elder Xu is really a Celestial King?” Someone spoke with surprise.

After all, rumors had spread that Xu Que’s father was a Celestial King or some such being at a higher stage, while Elder Xu had stated that he had destroyed the Heaven Palace Sect. However, once the Heaven Palace Academy had exposed Xu Que’s lies, the crowd suspected that probably all the information about his power was also fake.

Now this old man had currently become the Heaven Palace Academy’s Deputy Dean, and the Heaven Palace Academy disciples realized that something was weird about this affair. This was why they had become more solemn and serious!

It seemed from the current situation that this old man was likely a Celestial King, or a being at a higher stage. If this hadn’t been the case, the Dean wouldn’t have invited him to assume the Deputy Dean position. Moreover, this old man had suddenly emerged from the back mountain.

“What are you looking at? D*mn! In the past, I have said that I would come back one day. Now, I have come back, and some people will suffer a miserable fate.”

At this moment, Buttface glared at the numerous disciples and sneered coldly.

Duan Jiude’s eyes flickered with a cold glint, and he said in a deep voice, “I will state several names, and everyone mentioned by me had better come to see me today, or else… He, he, the consequences will be dreadful”

After Duan Jiude spoke, he uttered several strange names.

Xu Que was taken aback. Buttface and Duan Jiude seldom acted in this manner, and it seemed as if they had indeed been bullied too much by the Heaven Palace Academy despite Jiang Hongyan’s protection. It seemed as if they didn’t have Jiang Hongyan, those two guys would have suffered an even more miserable fate.

“I also have to point out some names. Bao Jiang, Zhang Liyun, Li Huan. Come over here. If you don’t do so, I will destroy even your homes,” Buttface roared loudly to give vent to his anger.

At this moment, the disciples all descended into silence. Some of them wore expressionless looks because this affair wasn’t related to them, and some of them looked frightened and restless, while there were still others who took joy in their comrades’ misfortunes.

F*ck!

Xu Que was even more startled, and he spoke with surprise, “Buttface, how did they bully you in the past? Why are you so angry?”

“Humph, when I mention this matter, I can’t help but get angry and have the desire to kill people. F*ck! Do you know how outrageous they were?”

Buttface wore an angry look and pointed at the people below him as he spoke, “They have bullied an honest and good person.”
