Chapter 562: Chapter 17 It Seems Quite Reasonable to Me_2

```

"That's right," he said.

"Hasn't anyone looked for him?"

"Dean Jing Hongchen personally issued an order. Wang Shaojie studied with me in seclusion for a month. Isn't that normal? You have to understand, when a Soul Master is engrossed in researching soul tools, it's quite common not to see them for three to five months," Jing explained.

Qin Xiao was momentarily stunned by the response.

So, Dean Jing Hongchen was involved too?

Wang Shaojie became even more anxious, "Teacher, Qin Xiao is back now, can you let me go this time?"

"Why should I let you go? What does his return have to do with you?"

Xuan Ziwen frowned.

"How can it not be related? Doesn't this prove that I didn't harm him?"

Wang Shaojie argued desperately.

But who was listening to him?

Ju Zi couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Qin, what exactly happened after you told me to leave that day?"

"Why couldn't we find you? Where have you been all this time?"

Ju Zi was voicing the questions that everyone had.

Qin Xiao did not immediately answer, but instead glanced at Wang Shaojie.

He thought to himself: Kid, you're in for it today.

He had decided to throw all the dirty water on Wang Shaojie's hands.

After all, the guy was already half-dead.

It wouldn't matter if he trampled on him some more.

After taking a deep breath, he slowly began, "Well, it's a long story...

After I rescued you, I sensed a powerful presence lying in ambush before we parted ways, so I had you leave first."

"As it turned out, my hunch was correct, and I was the target of that Soul Emperor-level expert."

"Left with no choice, I had to flee."

"The journey was exceedingly arduous. I fled from Mingdu to the far northern lands before I had a chance to catch my breath and slay that Soul Emperor. Then, after some time to recover, I finally set out on the road back..."

Qin Xiao spun the tale with skill.

He perfectly explained why he had gone to the far northern lands.

However.

After listening to Qin Xiao, Wang Shaojie was completely dumbfounded.

What kind of nonsense was this guy spouting?

I only sent a Soul Emperor to help that idiot Zimu; when did I ever send someone to kill Qin Xiao?

He was utterly bewildered.

He was thoroughly confused. The story Qin Xiao was telling didn't match the script he had received.

Wuuu wuuu wuuu.

As Ju Zi listened to Qin Xiao, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Images involuntarily came to her mind: a ragged young man, covered in wounds, fleeing across the ground.

Behind him, a Soul Emperor-level expert persisted in the chase.

And the young man was in constant danger of losing his life.

But he refused to give up.

Clenching his teeth.

If he fell, he would get back up and keep running forward.

If he bled, he wouldn't even glance at his wounds, just kept moving forward.

"Uncle Qin, you've suffered so much..."

The far northern lands, how remote they are.

Who knows how much suffering Qin Xiao endured?

Do any family members understand?

While Xuan Ziwen glared furiously at Wang Shaojie, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"Teacher, I do have something to say... I really didn't send anyone else to kill Qin Xiao..."

Wang Shaojie argued with all his might, "And think about it, does what Qin Xiao say even make sense?

He's just a Soul Master, not even a Grand Soul Master. What chance does he have to escape a Soul Emperor-level expert's pursuit?

And even more outrageous, he claims to have killed the Soul Emperor who was after him?

Do you really believe that? Even the novels circulated within our empire wouldn't dare to write something like that."

He felt that Qin Xiao's words were full of holes.

Ju Zi and the others must have been predisposed to believe Qin Xiao's story without thinking.

But he was clear-headed.

He had to point out the flaws in Qin Xiao's story.

At the same time, he grew even more resentful towards Qin Xiao.

Damn it.

You're trying to pin this on me, aren't you?

That's too much.

Lucky for me, I'm not a pushover either.

If you want to play mind games with me, you'll have to wait a few more years.

He was inwardly smug.

In his view, Qin Xiao had messed up. Not every accusation could be easily thrown his way.

However.

What shocked him happened next.

After he had finished speaking, neither Xuan Ziwen nor Ju Zi showed any sign of outrage at having been deceived.

Instead, they nodded solemnly.

```

"Do we believe huh?"

"Uncle Qin slaying a Soul Emperor, what's there to doubt about this?"

"In my opinion, this is as normal as it gets."

Both of them had come to understand Qin Xiao's combat strength directly or indirectly.

One could say, they also grasped the lethality of the sniper rifle.

Without sufficient preparation on the enemy's part, isn't killing a Soul Emperor straightforward?

Even, forget a Soul Emperor level expert, if a Soul Sage level expert is caught off guard, they'd still be done for.

After being stunned for a moment, Wang Shaojie looked somewhat manic, "Crazy, you all are really crazy!

Even if he is a Grand Soul Master, he can't just slay a Soul Emperor!

Such a thing has never happened in our Sun-Moon Empire. Even in Soul Land, has there ever been such an occurrence? And you still nod along!

This is truly unbelievable.

Are you mocking me for lacking knowledge?

Wait, I get it, you're in cahoots with Qin Xiao, ganging up to dupe me, aren't you?"

Wang Shaojie suddenly had an epiphany.

These guys really wanted to put him in a deadly situation.

It's as if they're trying to claim that the mud in his crotch isn't feces even when it's clearly not so.

"Heh, Wang Shaojie, one must be responsible.

The eyes of the masses are keen; your little schemes have long been seen through.

Does it disappoint you that I didn't get killed?"

Qin Xiao looked at Wang Shaojie and chuckled.

He was genuinely happy.

After all, given his current status, taking out Wang Shaojie would be a bit troublesome.

Moreover.

In the Sun-Moon Empire, he hadn't acquired everything he wanted yet, and couldn't leave.

But Wang Shaojie couldn't stay.

Fortunately, there was Xuan Ziwen. His teacher's identity, status, and strength were among the very top in the Sun-Moon Empire, so what was the problem with getting rid of a wastrel relative?

Who could object?

Definitely no one.

"Qin Xiao?"

I hear he's already returned?"

Just then, a voice came from outside the lab door.

Subsequently, a somewhat disheveled figure barged in.

It was none other than Dean Jing Hongchen of the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Academy.

After entering the lab, he looked around with wide eyes.

It didn't take much effort for him to find Qin Xiao.

Suddenly, he let out a sigh of relief.

It's good that there's no trouble.

He had rushed over without stopping as soon as the academy's gatekeeper informed him of Qin Xiao's return.

Now, seeing him, he was quite satisfied.

No missing arms or broken legs, at least he was in one piece.

"Where did you go, kiddo? You actually know how to come back!"

Although Jing Hongchen's words sounded a bit reproachful, they were laced with deep concern.

After all, Qin Xiao was the successor he valued highly.

He can't afford any mistakes.

"Dean, you can't blame Uncle for this. It was all Wang Shaojie's mischief behind the scenes, Uncle was only risking his own safety to... to save me,"

Ju Zi boldly interjected, speaking up for Qin Xiao.

"Oh, what's the whole story? Tell me about it."

Jing Hongchen raised his eyebrow, curious to know the ins and outs of the matter.

"Uncle must be tired after just coming back. I heard everything clearly when Uncle was talking about it, so let me tell you what happened..."

Ju Zi considerately stepped forward.

Jing Hongchen nodded slightly, "No problem."

Subsequently, Ju Zi began narrating the previous conversation with Qin Xiao, "Here's what happened..."

Squeak, squeak.

A moment later, Jing Hongchen's fists were clenched tightly, and seeing Wang Shaojie, his eyes gleamed ferociously, "Boy, do you have anything to say for yourself?"

"Dean, I'm wronged..."

"Please think carefully, does what they say make sense? A Soul Master killing a Soul Emperor, is that reasonable? Even in my wildest dreams, I wouldn't dream of such a thing. "

Wang Shaojie wailed, "Ju Zi and the others are deceived by Qin Xiao, you should be able to perceive the truth and make a fair judgment, right?"

He cried.

He really cried.

Being falsely accused was just too damn grievous.

Ju Zi and Xuan Ziwen could be let off.

They were typical of favoring kin over justice.

But as the Dean of the academy, Jing Hongchen should be more rational, right?

He should adhere to principles of fairness, openness, and justice.

After a moment's reflection, Jing Hongchen nodded slowly, "I think, a Soul Master killing a Soul Emperor, that's quite reasonable?"


Chapter 563: Chapter 18 You Are All Acting Me_1

How could such an outrageous incident ever make sense?

Wang Shaojie was dumbstruck, already at a loss for words.

He now had this feeling that the whole world was making a fool of him.

Everyone present was an Oscar-winning actor.

"Wang Shaojie, do you know? I actually don't hate you, in fact, I'm pretty grateful to you."

Suddenly, Qin Xiao's words captured Wang Shaojie's attention.

He looked over and saw Qin Xiao looking back at him with absolute sincerity.

"You must be mocking me, right?"

The more sincere Qin Xiao was, the more Wang Shaojie felt slapped in the face.

This was just too much.

Yet Qin Xiao helplessly spread his hands, "I truly am thankful to you..."

As soon as he said this, there was quite a reaction.

"Qin Xiao, what's wrong with you? Have you been traumatized?"

Jing Hongchen furrowed his brows.

Xuan Ziwen's face was filled with tension, "Brother Qin, why would you say such a thing?"

"Uncle Master, you haven't hurt your brain, have you?"

Ju Zi was also very anxious, with tears swirling in her eyes, "It's all my fault, if it weren't for saving me, Uncle Master wouldn't have become mentally impaired..."

Qin Xiao: "..."

What on earth are they talking about?

His original intent was to provoke Wang Shaojie, but instead he was treated as though he had suffered a head injury and a decline in intelligence.

"I really am not sick..."

He explained feebly as a sudden burst of soul power fluctuations erupted from his body.

However.

What he activated wasn't his Spiritual Eyes Martial Soul, but his second Martial Soul, the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion.

The temperature in the laboratory plummeted suddenly.

Hiss...

Ju Zi couldn't help but take a sharp breath.

With her level of cultivation, she already felt cold.

Even between breaths, you could see the white mist clearly.

Wang Shaojie's teeth were chattering and he trembled from the cold.

"Is this the power of your Martial Soul?

No, that's not right.

You have a spiritual attribute Martial Soul, how could you also have an elemental attribute?"

Jing Hongchen couldn't help but furrow his brow.

"It's not the Spiritual Eyes Martial Soul, Brother Qin's Martial Soul isn't like this..."

Xuan Ziwen knew more about Qin Xiao than Jing Hongchen did.

Having seen Qin Xiao use his Martial Soul before, he immediately realized that this kind of change definitely wasn't something the Spiritual Eyes Martial Soul could cause.

"Could it be..."

However.

Before he could finish his sentence.

Qin Xiao had already given the answer with his actions.

The Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion Martial Soul instantly merged with him.

His entire being underwent a tremendous transformation.

"This is..."

Everyone watched Qin Xiao in shock, speechless with astonishment.

"As you can see..."

Feeling the surge of power from the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion, a satisfied smile appeared on Qin Xiao's face, "This is why I have to thank Wang Shaojie.

It was him who sent people to assassinate me, encouraged me, and in a crisis of life and death, my body's potential was stimulated, awakening the second Martial Soul inside me..."

Could it really work like that?

Everyone was stunned.

But that didn't include Wang Shaojie.

At that moment, he was nearly on the verge of collapse.

For heaven's sake, encouraged you.

I never sent anyone to kill you, alright?

Your awakening of the Twin Martial Souls has nothing to do with me.

But these were thoughts he could only entertain in his mind.

After all, speaking out would attract no listeners, only rebukes, which is quite unpleasant to endure.

"Aren't Twin Martial Souls born at the time of the awakening of one's Martial Soul?"

Ju Zi tilted her head, pondering for a moment before asking with confusion.

Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen exchanged glances, their eyes equally filled with shock and bewilderment.

Clearly, they had never encountered the kind of event that Qin Xiao was describing.

It wasn't just a matter of having never seen such a thing.

They had never even heard of it, nor was it recorded in any ancient texts.

However,

Qin Xiao observed everyone's expressions and was not surprised by them.

In fact, he had expected this all along.

He immediately offered the explanation he had prepared, "To be honest, I was just as surprised when this happened.

But Soul Land is so vast; unexpected events are bound to occur.

Consider the situation many years ago, who would have thought that someone with a Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul could become a god?

So, theory is theory, practice is practice, and the two must not be conflated. We can only find the truth through practical experience..."

Since the event had already occurred, Qin Xiao believed that even if he didn't explain and simply admitted his ignorance, there wouldn't be any major issues.

He trusted that Jing Hongchen and Xuan Ziwen, among others, would come up with suitable explanations for themselves.

If they really couldn't explain it, then there was always metaphysics to fall back on.

An accident could account for everything, without any problem.

Quite some time passed.

Jing Hongchen couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Who would have thought that you, young man, would have such fortune? It's truly unimaginable..."

"Looking back on my life, I've been through countless wars, both big and small, some even clutching at my life, but never have I had such fortune as you..."

"Moreover, I can sense that your Martial Soul is definitely extraordinary, quite possibly superior to many top-tier Martial Souls..."

"Who would have thought Wang Shaojie would be so conducive..."

Jing Hongchen hesitated, with more to say?

He felt that the fewer people who knew about the quality of Qin Xiao's Martial Soul, the better.

The more outstanding Qin Xiao was, the more he needed to be concealed.

This was the best way to protect him.

Shouting from the rooftops about a peerless genius appearing in our academy would be courting death.

But at this moment, Qin Xiao's status in his heart had invisibly risen by many degrees.

Previously, Qin Xiao had exhibited exceptional talent on the path of soul tools, and both he and Xuan Ziwen thought that Qin Xiao would surely become a Level 9 Soul Guidance Master.

Even,

touching the threshold of the legendary Rank Ten Spirit Guidance Master was not impossible.

Qin Xiao had a great chance of becoming a pillar of the Sun-Moon Empire.

But now it was different.

The emergence of Twin Martial Souls meant that Qin Xiao had extraordinary talent not only in the way of soul guidance masters.

On the path of a Soul Master, he was also exceptional.

Even if he did not pursue the path of soul guidance masters in the future, he would still become an unparalleled existence in Soul Land.

A Title Douluo of Level 99 was within reach.

Even if one were to take a step back, becoming a Titled Douluo above level 96 and coupled with a powerful soul tool would still be extremely extraordinary.

"Principal, should we now carefully consider how to deal with Wang Shaojie?"

At that moment, Xuan Ziwen, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up.

His gaze toward Wang Shaojie was incomparably cold.

Despite Qin Xiao saying he should thank Wang Shaojie,

if you take that seriously, you've already lost.

Now he was contemplating how to ensure Wang Shaojie would forever remain silent.

"This fellow..."

Jing Hongchen also gave Wang Shaojie a glance, somewhat frustratedly saying to Qin Xiao, "Now I understand why you revealed your Twin Martial Souls in front of me. Tell me the truth, are you trying to use me to get rid of Wang Shaojie?"

After all, Wang Shaojie was of royal kin, and Jing Hongchen would have to explain to the royal household if he executed him outright.

It would be somewhat troublesome.

So, initially, he did not want Wang Shaojie's life.

Simply crippling him and throwing him out of the academy would suffice.

He believed that a disabled person would be disregarded by everyone, and a comeback would be impossible—posing no threat to Qin Xiao.

But now,

with the revelation of Qin Xiao's Twin Martial Souls, everything was different.

Wang Shaojie knew too much.
