"Teacher, I'm not convinced, you lied to me!"
"The school motto textbook also says: 'Keep your promises, and be resolute in your actions. A person without trustworthiness is not to be trusted!' Teachers cannot lie to people!"
"We are not convinced by Teacher Dong!"
"What Bibi Dong can do, we can also do. We are all Teacher's wives!"
Ring, ring, ring~
In front of the academy, the students had also come to their senses by this time.
Senior Sister Ning Rongrong broke the rules, wildly shaking her Peach blossom bell.
Clear and noisy bell sounds spread out.
Rebellion, it was a rebellion.
More than ten female students united, kneeling in front of the academy, impeaching the position of Teacher's wife.
Wang Sheng and Xiao Chenyu, who had rushed over to investigate the situation upon hearing the Peach blossom bell, exchanged glances. The academy was indeed not peaceful.
Senior Sister Rongrong was too fierce; she even dared to shake the Peach blossom bell indiscriminately.
Seeing this scene, the two were so scared that they dared not approach, tiptoeing backward, running into the Peach blossom forest outside. The two started punching each other. At this moment, only by fighting until they were physically and mentally exhausted could they forget everything.
Inside the academy, Teacher Su, who had just disciplined Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong, heard the frequent ringing of the Peach blossom bell and slowly walked out.
The figure in red looked unhurried, calm and composed, not anxious because of it.
He walked to the steps in front of the academy, looked calmly at the Disciples below. Among them, standing at the very front was Senior Sister Ning Rongrong. Su Ran was neither angry nor annoyed, he just asked:
"Where did Teacher break his promise, and where did he lie to you?"
Ning Rongrong gave up, and said faintly:
"Teacher, do you still remember what you promised me when we were in Slaughter City?"
"You said that as long as Rongrong grew up and matured, you would accept Rongrong's admiration. Rongrong has always wanted to work hard to become stronger, to stand on her own, to become an excellent student, to stand out, and to successfully graduate."
"But Teacher, you secretly got together with Teacher Dong. What is this if not deception? You hurt this Disciple's heart!"
Ning Rongrong was indeed very hurt. She originally thought that she and Teacher were 'childhood sweethearts,' the future golden vajra turret Teacher's wife.
She never expected that she was actually the clown. Who could stand this?
When Ning Rongrong brought this up, Shui Bing'er, Shui Yueer, as well as Dugu Yan and Meng Yiran, only then realized that there was such a thing. They immediately felt unfair and couldn't help but speak out:
"Teacher, you not only lied to Senior Sister Rongrong, but you only lied to Senior Sister Rongrong! That's too much!"
We also want to be lied to by Teacher, at least it would make us happy and give us a stronger belief to strive for.
Su Ran smiled faintly and said:
"Rongrong, if Teacher remembers correctly, what Teacher taught you at that time was that when you mature, when you graduate from the academy, then you will truly grow up, no longer a simple student, but possessing an equal height and personality as Teacher."
"Not only Rongrong, but other students are the same. In the academy, abide by school rules and listen to school mottos, but after graduating from the academy, you will be a truly independent individual, no longer a learning student, but a friend and partner of the academy."
Su Ran looked at all the students, his heart calm and hands steady. Although his age was not much older than these students, in Su Ran's eyes, these girls were still immature children.
"Teacher, you're being unreasonable, you... you!"
Ning Rongrong stomped her foot in frustration, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I'm sorry everyone, Senior Sister Rongrong, actually... it's all my fault. Teacher is only in this situation because he helped me."
A pretty girl with a scorpion tail braid, holding a bluish-white little rabbit, walked to the front and bowed deeply to Ning Rongrong and the other students and Teacher:
"Junior Sisters must have noticed during this time that I almost never leave this little rabbit. Perhaps everyone thought it was my pet, but actually... she is my mother."
Xiao Wu bit her lip. At this moment, she had to stand out to help Teacher out of this predicament.
Hearing this, all the students looked at each other, already a bit confused:
"Senior Sister Xiao Wu, what exactly is going on?"
"How can this little rabbit be Senior Sister Xiao Wu's mother?"
The Junior Sisters in the academy were not aware of Xiao Wu's identity and were all somewhat puzzled.
Only Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and a few other 'veteran' students' expressions changed, and they listened carefully to Xiao Wu's words.
"That's right, my true identity is a 100,000-year Spirit Beast."
"Thanks to Teacher's kindness, I got the same opportunity as everyone else to stay in the academy and learn fist techniques and Cultivation Technique from Teacher, changing my Physique. This opportunity is very rare."
"But no one knows that my original intention for coming to the Human World was to get stronger and avenge my mother. Many years ago, my mother was hunted by a human powerhouse and absorbed to become her spirit ring."
"And this human powerhouse is Bibi Dong..."
Subsequently, Xiao Wu truthfully revealed the reason for the incident, as well as her guess: Teacher was trying to resolve the grudge between her and Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong, and persuaded Bibi Dong to offer her 100,000-year spirit ring and Spirit Bone, to gain a glimmer of hope for her mother's resurrection.
Perhaps... it could only be that incident, when Teacher and Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong were alone for a long time, something unexpected might have happened, leading to an inseparable connection between Teacher and Bibi Dong.
After listening, all the students present fell silent, not knowing what to say.
It seemed they couldn't blame anyone.
Teacher stood up for his Disciple, and this incident was not intentional; rather, his good intentions led to his own detriment.
Senior Sister Xiao Wu was for her mother; familial love is one of the most precious existences in the World.
And as for Bibi Dong, they had no right to accuse her. Her willingness to offer the 100,000-year spirit ring and Spirit Bone she had already absorbed was precious to any Spirit Master. If an outsider had made such a demand of them, they would have to ask themselves—they might not have been able to do it either.
The wind was so silent.
Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, rubbed the little rabbit in Xiao Wu's arms, and comforted her:
"Xiao Wu, I'm sorry, we didn't realize there was such a story behind this. You don't need to apologize, we have no right to blame you."
"I'm sorry, Teacher, I... I wronged you. I thought you were openly misleading Rongrong while secretly getting close to Teacher Dong... I'm sorry!"
Ning Rongrong also apologized to Teacher in shame.
Although they all had some complaints about Bibi Dong and were unconvinced by Teacher's intimacy with Bibi Dong, they learned more than just Cultivation Technique and fist techniques at the academy; they also learned principles. They were not unreasonable people who lacked human understanding.
However, even if it was an unexpected matter, we won't give up on Teacher so easily!
A hint of unyielding spirit appeared in the eyes of Ning Rongrong, Shui Yueer, and the other students:
I am a girl determined to become Teacher's golden vajra turret (spraying little dolphin)!
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will be Teacher's loyal pursuers!
Bibi Dong, don't be complacent! We will launch an even fiercer offensive!
