Chapter 224: Smackdown

Ye Xuan looked at Zheng Kaixuan, surprised, “One thousand spirit stones, how dare you ask for that? Aren’t you afraid we’ll just use force?”

Zheng Kaixuan looked at Ye Xuan smugly, “Use force? What do you awakening users do? Protect us ordinary people! If you dare to snatch my phone, forcibly delete the videos on my phone, I guarantee I’ll make a big fuss about it, and you won’t have peace! I, Zheng Kaixuan, am not easy to bully!”

Lin Xu suddenly smiled, “You’re right, we definitely won’t snatch your phone.”

With a smug look, Zheng Kaixuan said to Ye Xuan, “See that? Learn more from your Dean Lin. When it’s time to bow your head, bow your head. Don’t be impulsive. The road is long, learn more about being a decent person.”

As Zheng Kaixuan spoke, he reached out and patted Ye Xuan’s shoulder, as if teaching him a lesson.

At that moment, Lin Xu also said, “You’re right. In the next life, learn more about being a decent person.”

Zheng Kaixuan’s face changed, about to say something, but Lin Xu had already slapped him.

Under immense force, Zheng Kaixuan’s head directly spun 360 degrees on his neck, completing a full circle.

His neck was already broken, his head drooping softly forward, eyes wide open, looking at Lin Xu, seemingly not understanding how he had died.

Zheng Kaixuan’s friend was instantly pale with fear. He went madly fleeing, shouting, “Help, murder, help!”

Su Mengli raised her hand, and a burst of red lotus fire shot out, landing on Zheng Kaixuan’s friend. In an instant, his body ignited, and a few seconds later, turned into ashes and disappeared.

Meanwhile, Zheng Kaixuan’s body fell with a thud to the ground, his eyes still wide open.

Lin Xu looked at this scene and said, “Did I keep my word? I didn’t snatch your phone or delete its contents, right?”

Ye Xuan laughed, “Dean Lin, is this the method you taught us to handle situations? Weren’t you just saying we should endure?”

Lin Xu shrugged, “Haven’t you noticed? I’ve been enduring for a long time. If I didn’t, I would have killed him as soon as I got off the car! But I endured, wanted to see what demands he would make. He asked for one hundred spirit stones per person, and I endured that too! You know, I only earned two hundred spirit stones for taking the blame for you back then. I was prepared to endure the pain and give them two hundred spirit stones! Unfortunately, they still pushed it further. My video segment was priced at one thousand spirit stones, even more ruthless than me! What could I do? I, Lin Xu, as the Dean of the Awakening Academy, endured and endured again. I am the Dean of the Academy, not a ninja turtle. If I killed them, is there a problem?”

Ye Xuan had a look of sudden realization, “I understand now, Dean Lin, you usually have a fierce appearance, but today in front of this guy, you deliberately showed kindness to continuously provoke his limits, so you would have enough reason to kill him, right?”

Lin Xu had a look of a wise teacher, “Exactly, that’s what I meant. Of course, there’s one more thing. These kinds of things must be done privately, not in front of too many people, otherwise, there will be problems. You and Mengli, in the future, when you encounter such problems with many people, hide and find a way to identify a few ringleaders’ identities, then quietly get rid of them. We awakening users are here to protect the common people, but we are also part of the public. Faced with these provocateurs who go too far and disrupt unity, is it wrong to protect ourselves by getting rid of them? Absolutely not, right?”

After Lin Xu finished speaking, he took out his phone and made a call to the Awakening Organization, “Notify the students on the bus that Zheng Kaixuan and his friend are suspected of colluding with the Heavenly Sacred Sect. We have concrete evidence, so they were executed on the spot. Let them know not to inquire about anything related to Zheng Kaixuan in the future, nor disclose anything to anyone, otherwise, they will be considered remnants of the Heavenly Sacred Sect and dealt with accordingly!”

“I understand, Dean Lin.”

The awakening user hung up the phone, then said to the students on the bus, “Everyone, quiet down. I have an announcement to make. Zheng Kaixuan and his friend were found to be colluding with the Heavenly Sacred Sect, they are remnants of the Heavenly Sacred Sect, and have been executed on the spot. No one is allowed to inquire about anything related to Zheng Kaixuan, and do not disclose any information about him, otherwise, you will be considered remnants of the Heavenly Sacred Sect.”

The students on the bus, upon hearing this, had their faces changed drastically. A female classmate of Zheng Kaixuan said, “How is that possible? How could Zheng Kaixuan be involved with the Heavenly Sacred Sect? Is there a conspiracy here?”

The awakening user, upon hearing this, said, “It seems like you are very familiar with Zheng Kaixuan? Are you also colluding with the Heavenly Sacred Sect? What’s your name? You don’t need to get off the bus later, just come back with us for investigation!”

The girl was frightened, her face pale, she hurriedly said, “No, no, I’m not familiar with Zheng Kaixuan at all. This guy is always mysterious, he must be related to the Heavenly Sacred Sect, it’s good that he’s dead!”

“Exactly, he must have a problem. Maybe it was planned by Zheng Kaixuan that we were kidnapped. He deserved to die!”

“Know people by their faces, not their hearts. This guy is a jerk. Fortunately, the Awakening Organization is wise and decisive, discovering this scum in time, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!”

For a moment, the students on the bus harshly condemned Zheng Kaixuan and his friend, praising the Awakening Organization as unparalleled and exceptional.

On the other hand, after Su Mengli burned Zheng Kaixuan’s body, she also prepared to leave.

At that moment, the remnant soul of the Empress said to Su Mengli, “Mengli, there’s something you need to tell Lin Xu, to prevent it in advance and reduce casualties.”

“What is it?”

The Empress sighed, “In my parallel world, similar incidents occurred. Of course, the timing and specific circumstances were different, but the consequences were the same. Some people deliberately incited conflicts between awakening users and ordinary people.”

“And then?”

The Empress continued, “Several major cities, some elite white-collar workers, and professionals believed that awakening users were spending their taxpayers’ money but couldn’t protect them with their lives. They were very angry, organizing several large-scale protests. At that time, the awakening users were also furious, many awakening organizations went on strike, and awakening users from the academies also stayed indoors. During the protests, there was an attack by mutated beasts, resulting in countless casualties among the protesters. Within a day, the total number of casualties reached millions, with severe injuries. You have the ability to prevent such incidents from happening!”

Su Mengli asked, “But why should I prevent it?”

The Empress replied,
