âForget it, I know what you have been planning are all these years. Now, I donât care. Canglan Academy will not compete with you for a little bit of fame. You can do whatever you want. These hypocritical words are unnecessary. Baili Hongzhuang wonât hand over the antidote, and that is our decision.â
Looking at Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxiâs hypocritical faces again, Huan Chuyou didnât even have the want to deal with them.
That was all there was to say.
Baili Hongzhuang had already made up her mind, no matter how much the royal family wanted to salvage the situation, she would not waver.
Last time when Chu Jiyou came with the two other people, he made a special effort to understand Baili Hongzhuangâs thoughts. After learning that Baili Hongzhuangâs decision was so firm, he understood.
As for Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxi, he had no relationship with them anymore, and he was not willing to pay too much attention to them either.
Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxi were stunned, they didnât expect Huan Chuyou to speak so bluntly.
In this way, the two of them didnât know what to say at all. Huan Chuyou had completely closed off all possible room for maneuver.
âElder Huan, what youâre saying disregards all the friendship and emotions weâve built up over the years.â
Jian Qingqiuâs face looked a bit unpleasant. He never expected Huan Chuyouâs attitude would be so resolute.
However, listening to Jian Qingqiuâs words, Huan Chuyouâs face remained unchanged. âFrom your actions over the years, our past relationship has long disappeared.â
âElder Huan, youâve gone too far!â
Cang Hongxi couldnât help but frown. All three of them had prestigious identities, and given the current status of the Canglan Academy, Huan Chuyou should have been more polite to them.
Huan Chuyou sneered. Cang Hongxi hadnât figured out the true situation yet.
There was no reason to even pretending him at this point.
âIâve gone too far, so what? Havenât you done many excessive things over the years? The principals of the academies throughout history have always aimed to develop cultivators, but you have attached yourselves to the royal family for your own fame. Perhaps now you have great fame, but one day, when your power is completely usurped by the royal family, and you become their puppet, I will be happy to see it. Now, you may leave.â
Huan Chuyou stood up, his face, which had always been kind and soft, was already full of indifference at now. Their paths had diverged.
Although they are both principals of academies, they had very different ideas, and there was no point in continuing to maintain that hypocritical friendship. Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxiâs faces were livid. This was simply a blatant slap in the face from Huan Chuoyou!
If they hadnât seen it with their own eyes, they would have found it hard to believe that Huan Chuyou, who usually had a gentle and kind expression, could say such words.
However, Jian Qingqiuâs heart couldnât help but feel heavy. Huan Chuyouâs words were tantamount to smashing a stone in his heart again.
As Huan Chuyou said, the involvement of the royal familyâs power was truly terrifying. Nowadays, the royal familyâs influence at Lingyin Academy was less than that of the principal himself.
Perhaps, in the future, Lingyin Academy will become an academy completely owned by the Qingxiao Kingdomâs royal family, but by the time he realized it, it would be too late.
âHuan Chuyou has really gone too far!â said Cang Hongxi with a displeased expression on his face. He had already swallowed his price by coming here today, but Huan Chuyou was still rude.
