Elder Zhou Min attempts to expel Mu Ru Yue and her friends from the academy, fabricating a new rule to justify her actions. Just as she issues the expulsion order, the Dean, Lin Ruo Yu, intervenes and confronts Zhou Min. Another disciple, Huang Yu, accuses Mu Ru Yue's servant of seducing men, but is immediately silenced by the arrival of Ye Wu Chen, who offers to kill Huang Yu for Mu Ru Yue. Lin Ruo Yu reveals her true identity and challenges Zhou Min's authority, just as Elder Rong arrives.

'Dean?'

Zhou Min's smile faltered as she stared blankly at Elder Rong, who stood before Lin Ruo Yu. "Elder Rong, what did you just say?" she inquired, her voice laced with disbelief.

'How could this rustic-looking individual be the revered Dean?'

Lin Ruo Yu's brow furrowed slightly. A flicker of light danced in her eyes as she questioned, "Elder Rong, are you an elder of God Academy? If I hadn't left the rear mountain, I might still be unaware of the current state of God Academy..."

Elder Rong's gaze swept over Zhou Min, who had already turned ashen from shock upon hearing Lin Ruo Yu's words. He frowned, his eyes sharp.

"Elder Rong..."

Zhou Min looked at Elder Rong, her complexion deathly pale. She opened her mouth to speak, but words failed her.

"Hmph!"

Elder Rong let out a cold snort. "Dean, do not be troubled. I will certainly handle this matter appropriately!"

Boom!

The sound struck their ears like thunder, stunning the gathered crowd into silence.

If they had misheard the first time, how could they mistake it the second?

Instantly, a collective gasp rippled through the crowd; disbelief etched on every face.

"Did you say you wished to expel me from God Academy?"

Lin Ruo Yu smirked, a cold glint in her eyes. "I wish to see how you intend to chase me out of this academy!" she challenged, her gaze like ice.

Bang!

Zhou Min staggered back several steps, collapsing onto the ground. Regret was the only emotion visible on her face.

"Dean... She is the Dean..."

Huang Yu hastily covered her mouth, stifling a cry, but her body trembled, her face drained of all color.

Yet, the greatest shock was reserved for Xiao Yu.

'I had suspected Lin Ruo Yu was no ordinary village woman from the start. But to think she is the Dean...'

'Her status far surpasses that of my Master.'

Xiao Yu bit her lip, resentment simmering within her. Her tightly clenched fists trembled.

"This round of competition will be overseen by Lu Zhen! Someone drag Zhou Min and Xiao Yu away. As for their fate, the elder council shall decide!"

Xiao Yu stumbled, nearly falling. She knew her doom was sealed.

Lu Zhen would be the judge for the subsequent trials. Despite the commotion, the newcomers' examination concluded amidst the stunned silence.

Yi Lian and Li Sha had, as expected, passed the exam, securing their advancement to the next level.

Night descended.

The night was remarkably still.

Within a secluded courtyard of the academy, Zhou Min paced anxiously. She knew that once the elders concluded their discussion, her end was certain.

However, with Elder Rong standing guard, escape seemed an impossible feat.

"Master."

Xiao Yu bit her lip gently, tears welling in her eyes. "Will we die?" she asked, her voice heavy with despair.

Zhou Min's heart clenched at the helplessness in Xiao Yu's tone. Suppressing her own trembling, she offered a strained smile. "Don't worry, everything will be alright. Even with what we've done, the punishment will likely be minor. Elder Rong won't kill us..."

"Mas..."

As Xiao Yu turned to speak, she abruptly halted. Her pupils widened in terror, as if she had witnessed something horrific.

"What is it?"

Zhou Min frowned, puzzled by Xiao Yu's reaction. Following Xiao Yu's line of sight, a silhouette cloaked in purple caught her eye under the cloak of night.

Chapter 1234 - Ye Wu Chen's Fury Part 2

The purple robes billowed gently in the night wind.

The man stood like an Asura of the night. The intricate pattern of the Devil Snare on his face lent him an even more imposing aura beneath the moonlight.

"Wh-why are you here?"

Xiao Yu, visibly frightened, scrambled behind Zhou Min, her eyes fixed dreadfully on the approaching figure.

'I don't know why, but the power emanating from him instills a sense of unease...'

The man strode in from the darkness, a tempest brewing around him and spreading throughout the desolate courtyard.

"Xiao Yu."

Zhou Min placed a comforting hand on Xiao Yu's arm. She then turned her cold gaze to Ye Wu Chen. "Why have you come here?"

A faint smirk played on the man's lips.

His voice, a chilling melody both sinister and captivating, replied, "I have come to kill you all."

Zhou Min stared, then burst into laughter. "Do you truly think you stand a chance against me? Brat, you overestimate your own strength!"

Swish!

Zhou Min ascended into the air, her imposing aura directed towards Ye Wu Chen after uttering those words.

Ye Wu Chen slowly lifted his head, his gaze fixed with a sinister coldness upon Zhou Min, who was rapidly advancing. A magnificent aura erupted from his body, coalescing into a black hurricane that manifested before him…

"God Emperor?"

Zhou Min halted her charge, her eyes widening in shock. "How can you be a God Emperor? I distinctly recall you being only at the God-king Mid realm during the test. Why have you reached the God Emperor realm?"

Ye Wu Chen let out a chuckle.

That smile was of a caliber that could alter the very heavens and earth.

However, the two individuals before him were not in the least bit awed by his smile. It merely imparted to them a chilling, glacial sensation…

"It is merely a temporary facade. If I do not wish for others to perceive my true might, then no one shall know!"

Zhou Min gasped.

'This man has been concealing his true strength!'

"Why would you do such a thing?"

'If it were any other talented individual, they would be eager to broadcast their achievements to the entire world at such a young age. But this man… he chose to mask his power instead!'

'What is the reason behind this decision?'

Ye Wu Chen advanced progressively, his oppressive presence inching closer to Zhou Min. "My entire being is willing to conceal all of my brilliance when I am by her side. Do you comprehend the reason now?"

At that precise moment, Zhou Min's heart trembled.

His meaning was starkly clear.

'It is because of Mu Ru Yue that he willingly suppresses his radiance, choosing to appear less exceptional…'

"Haha!"

Suddenly, Zhou Min erupted into frantic laughter, her tone dripping with mockery. "So what if you possess the might of a God Emperor? You will still be no match for me! Since you are bent on seeking death, this Elder shall oblige your wish!"

Boom!

Zhou Min unleashed her full grandeur, swiftly charging towards Ye Wu Chen…

Yet, just as she neared Ye Wu Chen, the man's already formidable aura intensified further; his might surged directly towards the heavens…

Bang!

Zhou Min was propelled back several steps, landing heavily on the ground. She raised her head to gaze at the man's handsome and captivating face, utterly dumbfounded.

"What secret technique did you employ? Such a technique must surely have adverse side effects. Is it truly worth using it to extinguish my life?"

Zhou Min finally shrieked, her voice laced with immeasurable terror…

"In my estimation, it is entirely worthwhile as long as it allows me to take your life…"

The man smirked, slowly raising his hand. A black sword materialized in his grasp in an instant. With a sinister, icy gaze, he brought his sword down upon Zhou Min…

"Master!"

Xiao Yu's complexion turned deathly pale from sheer terror, and she cried out loudly.
