If an average person met with this situation, they would have already panicked by now.
But the extremely composed Helian Wei Wei simply smiled, neither conceited nor rash.
This allowed the anxious old man to be placated.
He believed that his disciple absolutely would not be so ign.o.ble.
That poisonous bee must have appeared because of another reason.
What’s laughable was that those colleagues of his, themselves teachers who instructed others, unexpectedly, because his disciple came from the Inferior Compound, also made slanderous accusations against her!
As if she’d perceived the old man’s wrath, Wei Wei’s lips curved into a smile. Ah, it looked like her own master still had a lot of confidence in her.
No matter what, she couldn’t let this old man down, could she?
“Everyone said this poisonous bee had been released by me. Why not tell us who raised this poisonous bee?”
Wei Wei, who hadn’t opened her mouth all along, started talking, her tone was so cold, it was difficult for people to ignore.
Staying out of sight in a dark place, Baili Jia Jue raised his eyebrows a bit balefully and gazed in Wei Wei’s direction, his eyes were filled with contemplation.
Everybody was having trouble understanding. Let’s forget that she didn’t say anything to exonerate herself. Why would she even ask something so meaningless?
Yet, the instant Wei Wei uttered those words, the one who was the chief culprit thoroughly became numb all over!
It couldn’t be!
That s.l.u.t couldn’t possibly know of that method!
“Since everybody can’t figure out who it was, then let me tell everyone.” Wei Wei’s figure suddenly moved, the leaf in her hand danced along with the wind and like a kind of a knife, it flew over to Helian Mei’s sleeve.
Only a swish swish sound from cloth was heard!
An embroidered flower with jade dropped to the ground with a ‘pah’ sound!
That embroidered flower was very small. If it weren’t for the special color, it’d be very difficult to discover.
Helian Mei’s face thoroughly drained of color.
She wanted to stand up and continue to make a scene as a way to s.h.i.+ft everyone’s attention.
But how could Wei Wei allow it!
She was already a step ahead as she picked up the embroidered flower and leisurely played with it. Her voice was neither rushed nor slow, “I think the teachers present have seen much and have extensive knowledge, so should all know what this thing is. Blood jade is a necessity for raising poisonous bees, because only when it is present do the poisonous bees peacefully calm down and not target people. Third Sister, your poisonous bee was raised by you. How did it come about that you pinned it on me?”
“Oldest Sister!” Helian Jiao Er knew the situation was bad once she saw the blood jade and hurriedly wanted to engage in sophistry.
Wei Wei cut her short with a cold smile, “You as well! You and Third Sister are so close that you’re indivisible. You knew early on that the poisonous bee was raised by her, yet you still took part in framing me this way, wanting the Princ.i.p.al to expel me! I’d like to turn around and ask the two of you, you two say again and again that I bully you, yet why do you insist on joining hands to lead me down a path of death?”
Once the sound of her voice dropped, the truth of the matter also already came out as well!
The compound suddenly contained a bit of an uproar. Everybody’s eyes, one after another, looked over at Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er.
“No, it wasn’t raised by me! Second Sister, hurry and tell everyone that poisonous bee wasn’t raised by me. Hurry up and say it!” Helian Mei’s still sluggish body once again trembled uncontrollably. She grabbed Helian Jiao Er’s hand and didn’t stop shaking it, wanting her to open her mouth and speak.
However, the current Helian Jiao Er certainly couldn’t even protect herself. How could she help defend Helian Mei.
This move of Wei Wei’s had simply caused her to be seen as a malicious girl in front of everybody.
It’s not like that, it shouldn’t be like that!
“No…..”
Helian Jiao Er had just started to open her mouth when Tusu Feng’s eyes coldly looked over. Things had already progressed to this point, yet she still dared to try to rationalize.
“White Academy has consistently refused to accept students of low moral character. In regards to Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er, they are expelled to leave down the mountain and will not be able to enter the academy forever!”
Such an ice cold voice made everyone involuntarily shocked numb, the previously gentle and kindly Princ.i.p.al obviously had become angry!
