Chapter 592: A Scene of Blooming Fireworks

Ye Guan was confused.

Just then, the Left Bishop and the Right Bishop suddenly appeared in front of the old man in luxurious robes.

The Left Bishop frowned slightly, looking displeased, as he asked, "Wang Lan, what are you doing here?"

There was no way they wouldn't recognize Wang Lan. He used to be from the Divine Academy, after all, but he was only an Inner Courtyard student.

Wang Lan looked at the bishops and spoke calmly, "Bishops, I am not here to target the academy. I'm here to make sure that an enemy of my Wang Clan will not be able to escape. I hope you can forgive me for the offense."

The Left Bishop was slightly puzzled. "An enemy of the Wang Clan?"

Wang Lan pointed at Ye Guan and said, "Yes. I'm talking about him."

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop's faces darkened.

Ye Guan!

The Left Bishop said in a low voice, "Wang Lan, what do you mean?"

Wang Lan glared coldly at Ye Guan before explaining, "He killed my grandson, Wang Yun, for no reason and fled. His methods were cruel and horrifying. If it weren't for the fact that the Wang Clan had the means to revive my grandson, my grandson would have died unjustly."

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop frowned.

The Right Bishop looked at Ye Guan and said, "Tell us your side of the story."

Of course, he had to listen to Ye Guan's side of the story as well. People were selfish and would often speak in their own favor and embellish their stories for their own gain.

Ye Guan stared alternatingly between Wang Lan and Wang Yun.

Then, he smiled at Wang Yun and asked, "Why do you think I killed you? Don't you have any idea why?"

Wang Yun's face soured. He couldn't reveal the truth. After all, he had started everything to show off, but he had ended up dying after underestimating Ye Guan's strength.

"How dare you!" Wang Lan roared, and a terrifying aura surged toward Ye Guan.

Ye Guan's gaze turned cold.

The man in the white robe frowned as well.

Meanwhile, Plain-Skirt Destiny was already imagining a scene of blooming fireworks

"Stop!" the Right Bishop yelled. He waved his sleeve, and a powerful energy shattered Wang Lan's aura. Wang Lan glared at the Right Bishop, displeased by the latter's intervention.

The Right Bishop glared back at Wang Lan and said, "Wang Lan, you are in the Divine Academy; this isn't the backyard of your Wang Clan."

The Left Bishop also looked at Wang Lan with a hint of disapproval.

They hadn't decided to take on Ye Guan's side. They simply felt that Wang Lan was going overboard. This was the Divine Academy; if they let Wang Lan attack Ye Guan without intervening, everyone would say that the Divine Academy was afraid of the Wang Clan.

Reputation was oftentimes more important than lives, after all.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere between the elders was getting a bit tense.

Wang Lan took a deep breath. "It seems that I've lost my composure."

In the end, he had chosen to compromise. After all, his target was just Ye Guan rather than the entire Divine Academy. Antagonizing the entire Divine Academy in the process of killing a mere Ye Guan was not worth it at all.

The Right Bishop gave Wang Lan a cold look before turning to Ye Guan. "Go on."

Ye Guan smiled and then explained the situation truthfully. He did not exaggerate or embellish. Since everyone here was an experienced individual, they could naturally discern what was true and what was false.

Everyone's expressions turned grim at Ye Guan's remark.

What an arrogant and overbearing spoiled brat! He went too far!

Everyone cast disdainful gazes at Wang Yun.

Wang Yun's face soured.

The Right Bishop looked at Wang Lan and laughed mockingly. "Trying to kill someone arbitrarily? Your Wang Clan is truly domineering!"

Wang Lan's face darkened. In truth, he wasn't aware of what had happened as well. He knew his grandson wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but he hadn't expected his grandson to be foolish to such an extent.

Okay, you wanted to kill him, but why did you not come up with a decent reason to do so? Wang Lan thought. However, he had no choice but to stand on his grandson's side.

Wang Lan looked at Ye Guan and said, "Even if there was a misunderstanding between the two of you, you shouldn't have killed him right away. It seems you don't regard my Wang Clan highly."

Ye Guan frowned and asked, "You called that a misunderstanding? Your grandson wanted to kill me, and it's just a misunderstanding in your eyes?"

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop frowned. When did this old man become so shameless?

Wang Lan ignored Ye Guan and looked at the two bishops, asking, "Bishops, how do you feel about this matter?"

Ye Guan's stance on this matter wasn't important. What mattered was the Divine Academy's stance. The Divine Academy just had to show the green light, and Ye Guan was nothing more than just a slightly larger ant to the Wang Clan.

As descendants of a god, the Wang Clan had a reason behind their confidence to deal with just about anyone.

The Left Bishop and the Right Bishop frowned. Clearly, Wang Lan wasn't going to back out. The Right Bishop spoke frankly, "Wang Lan, this is your grandson's fault. What does it have to do with Ye Guan? Are you saying that he should have allowed himself to die at your grandson's hands? Does that even make sense?"

Wang Lan's expression turned cold. "So the Divine Academy is going to take Ye Guan's side."

The Right Bishop's expression became fierce. "Are you threatening me?"

Seeing that both parties were becoming increasingly tense, the Left Bishop quickly interjected, "Wang Lan, in my opinion, let's just call it quits. After all, your grandson is still alive, so there's no real loss here. Can't we just let bygones be bygones?"

Wang Lan's face darkened. "So my grandson's death should just be forgotten?"

The Right Bishop said, "Wang Lan, you're a highly respected figure. Can't you distinguish right from wrong at all? Your grandson targeted Ye Guan for no reason. If you were in his shoes, wouldn't you resist as well?"

Wang Lan retorted coldly, "My grandson wanted to kill him, but did he succeed? At most, it was just attempted murder, but Ye Guan killed my grandson. Can't my Wang Clan avenge one of our own?"

The Right Bishop frowned. He wanted to reprimand Wang Lan again, but he noticed something amiss.

The Right Bishop looked down at Ye Guan, and something clicked in his head. It seemed that when Wang Lan discovered that Ye Guan was a student of the Divine Academy, he became afraid that Ye Guan would grow up and harm the Wang Clan in the future.

Wang Lan was just trying to eliminate a future threat.

The Right Bishop's expression soured at the realization.

The Left Bishop also came to the same conclusion as the Right Bishop. After a moment of thought, he said, "Wang Lan, I understand that you are trying to resolve the karma between your Wang Clan and Ye Guan, but there are many ways to go about this. It doesn't have to end in murder. Do you understand what I mean?"

Karma was easy to resolve; the Wang Clan just had to compromise. Then, they could offer some rewards and reconcile with Ye Guan. It would resolve the karma between them and create goodwill as well. Why resort to murder?

Wang Lan's face darkened. He understood what the Left Bishop was trying to say, but to compromise with Ye Guan? Was Ye Guan worthy of it?

The Wang Clan were descendants of a god. Why would they yield to a mere mortal? He couldn't afford to lose face, and neither could the Wang Clan afford to do so.

Wang Lan glanced at the Left Bishop and the Right Bishop before saying, "While he's within the Divine Academy, we will respect the Divine Academy's authority and not make any moves against him. However, we will not hesitate to make a move against him the moment he's no longer within the Divine Academy's territory."

Then, Wang Lan turned around to leave with Wang Yun.

"Wait." Ye Guan called out just then.

Wang Lan turned to look at him and said, "It's too late to beg for mercy..."

Ye Guan's figure trembled, and he reappeared outside the Divine Academy in the blink of an eye. He stared calmly at Wang Lan and said, "I'm outside now."
