"For a period of time, we will conduct a thorough investigation into the past experiences of all candidates within Leyuan. As for Zhou Yuanjue, we will temporarily take him out of Leyuan to assist with our investigation.
"But rest assured, it is merely an investigation. If there are indeed no issues with him, we will soon let him return to Leyuan.
"We cannot overlook any suspicious dangers, nor will we wrongly accuse any genius with potential."
This made the Black Lotus Steward's heart sink straight to the bottom.
The Chairman spoke with grand rhetoric, but he knew that once Zhou Yuanjue was taken away, there would be far too much room for manipulation. Even if he managed to get out safely, he would inevitably be stripped of a layer of skin—and that was the best-case scenario.
