Chapter 413 The Complacency of Chu Shanhe

How is the situation? Chu Shanhe quickly asked as he walked up to the fifth floor.

Deputy Head, the kid cant escape the calamity! whispered the attendant beside him, looking excited.

Oh? Do you have specific details? Chu Shanhes face was alight with joy.

The kid had been repairing the Sword of Apocalypse for the first three days, but he seemed to have encountered a setback on the fourth. He was sitting dispirited and dull on the ground, but he suddenly snapped awake today!

The attendant reported, Unfortunately, I couldnt enter the fifth floor of the Refinement Tower and could only observe from the outside.

Chu Shanhe began to hyperventilate, and his heart quivered with excitement. He inhaled deeply, trying to calm himself and asked, Where is the Sword of Apocalypse now?

It broke! The attendant smiled smugly.

It broke? Even though Chu Shanhe had exclaimed in shock, he had already guessed the outcome.

Are you sure? Chu Shanhe asked cautiously, confirming whether it was true.

I can guarantee with my life that the sword has broken into nine pieces. They have been lying there for two days and havent been repaired.

Good! Good! Very good! Chu Shanhe could no longer contain his excitement and joy.

It finally happened. When I see Lin Xun, I cant wait to see his depressed and terrified face!

Deputy Head, do you want to inform the imperial family? asked the attendant.

Chu Shanhe resisted the impulse to do so and said, Lets wait and see first, and then make a decision.

As they were speaking, Chu Shanhe led the group of instructors and students to the fifth floor of the Refinement Tower in a mighty manner.

The tremendous hall was utterly silent.

Chu Shanhes eyes lit up. As the attendant said, Lin Xun is sitting motionless like hes meditating.

Has that kid really given up?

He swept his eyes around the hall and noticed the sword broken into nine parts on the desk beside him. Each piece was enveloped in violet qi.

Its really broken.

His eyes grew even brighter.

The four experienced rune grandmasters seemed to be investigating something near the desk. Their brows were scrunched up as they stared at the broken sword, unaware that Chu Shanhe had come with a group of instructors and students.

The

The Sword of Apocalypse is broken?

Doesnt this mean that Little Instructor Lin has failed?

Heavens! How could that be? The Sword of Apocalypse has been destroyed. The imperial family wont forgive Little Instructor Lin! How would the empress forgive the person who broke her precious treasure?

Its over. Little Instructor Lin has gotten himself into serious trouble!

The instructors and students cried out in panic, their expressions dramatically changing.

Shen Tuo also turned ashen-faced. He thought that Lin Xun might be able to create a miracle since he had confidently accepted the proposal.

However, the realitywas too cruel!

The students of Class 9C looked even more glum, and their hearts felt extremely heavy. They admired and respected Lin Xun. How could they accept the fact that he walked into a hopeless situation because of a trap?

Chu Shanhe cleared his throat with a cough and said aloud, Everyone, you win some and you lose some. Theres no need to be so surprised. Its just a pity we didnt see the remarkable ability of Little Instructor Lin.

Many people reddened with anger. Even some instructors and students who were uninvolved in the incident felt that Chu Shanhe had gone too far.

Chu Shanhe had carefully planned the scheme, yet he was making sarcastic remarks. He was clearly satisfied that he got revenge.

Deputy Head Chu, the Sword of Apocalypse is already badly damaged and has no hope of being repaired. Its only a matter of time before it is destroyed, Shen Tuo explained. Thisthis matter cant be blamed on Lin Xun.

Yes, many rune grandmasters in the Forbidden City also couldnt do anything. Its understandable that Little Instructor Lin failed.

Other instructors and students echoed his words.

Chu Shanhe had never imagined that someone would oppose him at such a time.

His face darkened. If Little Instructor Lin knew he couldnt do it, then why didnt he refuse earlier? Since he made a promise, he has to take responsibility for his failure.

After a pause, he sighed, I actually dont want to see Little Instructor Lin fail, but the Sword of Apocalypse is very important. The consequences of it being destroyed are serious.

Many people couldnt help but curse inwardly when they saw Chu Shanhe cry crocodile tears.

That old man wants to kill Lin Xun and not leave him any chance of surviving!

Deputy Head Chu

Shen Tuo was about to say something when Chu Shanhe dismissed him with a wave of his hand. Okay, the sword is already broken, theres no point making excuses anymore. Now, we have to report the matter to the imperial family as soon as possible and hopefully, they understand.

So ruthless!

If the imperial family learns about the incident, there will be no wiggle room.

Attendants.

Chu Shanhe issued an order before everyone could respond, Inform the imperial family that Little Instructor Lin has failed to repair the Sword of Apocalypse and destroyed it in the process. Just report the truth.

Yes, an attendant rushed over and received the order.

Everyone felt chilled to the bone.

However, Chu Shanhe smiled faintly, suppressing his excitement. Everyone, dont worry. I believe the imperial family will deal with the incident appropriately.

Although Chu Shanhe acted indifferently, everyone knew he was in high spirits and complacent with the situation!

Who said I failed?

Lin Xun suddenly rose to his feet and swept a glance over them.

It had only been seven days, but Lin Xun had lost a lot of weight on his face. His face was unshaven and overcast with weariness.

Repairing the Sword of Apocalypse had taken a toll on him.

Everyone couldnt bear to look at Lin Xun, thinking that he only spoke out because he couldnt accept his failure.

Little Instructor Lin, no one wants to see the Sword of Apocalypse destroyed. Dont be too upset. Chu Shanhe pretended to be sympathetic.

Lin Xun smiled. Deputy Head Chu, thank you for your concern, butdid you actually see me fail?

His words sounded very rude like he was venting his frustration.

Little Instructor Lin, I know youre in a bad mood but I hope you watch what you say and dont talk nonsense!

Watch what I say? Fine.

Lin Xun chuckled. Deputy Head Chu, do you know Chu Haidong? You two are indeed from the same family.

What does that mean?

Many people were taken aback by Lin Xuns remarks at first, but then it dawned on them. After all the youth in front of them had proven that Chu Haidong was a stupid idiot.

Lin Xun was implying that Chu Shanhe was also a stupid idiot.

So vicious!

However, upon careful thought, it was understandable that Lin Xun was furious. After all, Chu Shanhe had pushed him into such a deep pit.

Chu Shanhes face turned dark and unpleasant and his eyes flashed coldly. He glowered at Lin Xun and said through gritted teeth, Little Instructor Lin, what do you mean by that?

The atmosphere suddenly turned tense.

Lin Xun said with a smile, What do I mean? Deputy Head Chu, you should know very well. But you have made a mistake, I have successfully repaired the Sword of Apocalypse three days ago. Why did you say I failed?

The audience was stunned. The instructors and students looked perplexed at the Sword of Apocalypse that had been broken into nine parts on the table.

Chu Shanhe burst into laughter and shook his head. Little Instructor Lin, I think you are talking gibberish because youre upset. The sword has been broken to such a state. How can you claim that its been repaired?

He burst out laughing again, feeling indescribably complacent and pleased that he had beaten Lin Xun.

Deputy Head Chuyou shouldnt laugh, the four experienced rune grandmasters came over to him and reminded him in a whisper. Their expressions were filled with pity.

Correct, it was pity!

They were not pitying Lin Xun but instead Chu Shanhe!

Everyone felt that some unexpected change had happened.

Chu Shanhe frowned and asked coldly, What do you all mean? Did I do something wrong just now

His voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes bulged wide open. He froze to the spot like lightning had struck him.

Lin Xun made a grabbing motion in the air, and clouds of sacred violet light rushed up from the table afar. They were from the nine parts of the Sword of Apocalypse.

The nine sword fragments seemed to possess spiritual nature. Amidst a unique and rhythmic clang and rumble, beautiful violet glory flowers bloomed from them one after another.

The nine violet glory flowers swayed in the air, producing a dazzling divine light and transforming into a three-foot-long sword. The sword exuded an ancient, majestic, and sacred aura!

It floated in the air while violet qi spiraled around its body, causing the surrounding air to collapse inch by inch and forming a current of turbulent air. A wailing-like whistle filled the hall.

Many instructors and students exclaimed. They felt a stinging pain in their eyes, their hearts throbbed, and they dared not to look directly at the brilliance of the sword!

Some students trembled, their hair standing on end and their faces turning deathly pale.

The

The Sword of Apocalypse has been restored to its original state!

Moreover, its aura alone is completely different from seven days ago. It has become more sacred, majestic, and terrifying!

Its as if it has gained a new soul and life!

Everyone gasped in astonishment while Lin Xun grinned at Chu Shanhe. Deputy Head Chu, your expression is exactly the same as Chu Haidongs when he was at the Rune Master Association headquarters. You two are like a carbon copy of each other. No wonder are both from the same clan!
