Chapter 260 I am an Undercover

The Autonomous Assembly gathers the disciples of the Rose for the monthly meeting every month, but usually only representatives from each branch school attend to propose some work-related suggestions on behalf of their respective schools. However, there are only a few dozen people in total.

However, at this moment, the square outside the Autonomous Assembly is already packed with people, with numerous disciples of the Rose Holy Sanctuary gathered here, numbering no less than a thousand.

There's no help for it; this is a requirement from the Academic Affairs Department. According to the announcement, not only is this a monthly meeting of the Autonomous Assembly, but it is also to commend Wang Feng for his bravery in saving Princess Xue Zhiyu during his academic exchange trip to Ice Spirit Kingdom, showcasing the fine qualities of the people of the Rose.

In short, it's using the monthly meeting as a pretext to praise Wang Feng.

Therefore, not only the disciples of the Holy Sanctuary have to attend, but also the mentors of the Rose and media outlets like the Light of the Holy Sanctuary.

Li Sitan, Luo Yan, and Famal are all present, sitting in the front row as acting deans of their respective branch schools. Some might not understand, but the mentors know that the real intention is not what it seems.

"Does Karida really have the confidence to pull this off?" Famal was somewhat surprised. He had heard the rumors, but he was unwilling to believe that Wang Feng was a spy for the Nine Gods.

"Who knows, but I don't believe it!" Luo Yan said indifferently.

Speaking of Wang Feng, this kid is truly exceptional. Not only does he possess an unprecedented talent for forging, but more importantly, he has a heart!

He went to Ice Spirit Kingdom and didn't forget to bring back some local specialties for me when he returned. It doesn't matter if they're expensive or not; the thought counts!

"It would be so much simpler if it were as you say, but our belief alone won't do," Famal said, turning to look at Li Sitan with some concern: "Li Sitan, you know more about this. Tell us, what's really going on?"

"I'm not entirely sure either," Li Sitan shook his head: "I've heard that the Lonlo who has been active in the Holy City recently is actually the former Luo Lan. I feel this might be related to him."

"You're not telling us anything new." Famal said somewhat discontentedly: "Among the three of us, you are the closest to Wang Feng. Has he mentioned anything to you? What do you think? Give us the inside scoop!"

"I indeed don't know much about the situation," Li Sitan smiled slightly, without any hesitation: "But I know my junior brother Wang Feng. He's a good kid, and there's no way he could be a spy. Luo Lan once had a grudge against Wang Feng. I think this is just a ploy by the enemy to sow discord. Haven't the Nine Gods used this trick before?"

Luo Yan and Famal exchanged glances, then looked at Li Sitan. All three of them laughed helplessly.

The rumors outside were detailed and vivid, but with their extensive knowledge, the three of them could still discern some truth from falsehood; after all, some things weren't baseless.

But so what?

Li Sitan's thoughts actually mirrored theirs. Wang Feng was someone they had chosen, and no matter what, the three would do everything in their power to protect him.

As they chatted casually, the surroundings gradually grew quiet. Karida briefly spoke a few words before yielding the stage to today's protagonist, Wang Feng.

At this moment, Old Wang was already on the stage, delivering an impassioned speech.

He began with why he went to Ice Spirit, explaining that it was due to an invitation from Lady Xue Zhiyu to exchange and study runes, as well as to seek inspiration for breaking through the constraints of runes. However, fate took a twist when they encountered the Ice Bee siege, and how he heroically saved the princess, earning great merit. Upon returning to Rose, he found that the once peaceful Autonomous Council had been thrown into chaos by some unknown riffraff...

The audience below was now silent, all listening intently to Old Wang's voice.

Damos sat in the center of the front row, a smile on his face.

Karida's grand commendation event clearly indicated her desperation, trying to deny Wang Feng's status as a spy and resist to the bitter end.

Unfortunately, all of this was meaningless. Good news kept coming from the council, and with his assistance, the investigation team had gathered substantial evidence. It was likely that the verdict would be reached within the next two or three days. Based on the current situation, there was no way Wang Feng and Karida could clear their names.

This was nothing more than a farce, and it was about time to put an end to it. Was he really going to let this boy ramble on forever?

He glanced at a mentor sitting beside him, who immediately understood. It was time to deliver the final blow.

On the stage, Old Wang was tediously recounting various accusations against Lin Yuxiang, while someone in the audience stood up: "This is nothing but a farce, I can't bear to listen any longer!"

It was a disciple of the Martial Dao Courtyard, Hols. His voice, infused with soul power, was loud and clear, instantly drowning out Wang Feng's words on stage. He sternly said, "Wang Feng! How dare you, a spy of the Nine Gods, stand here on the podium of our Rose Holy Sanctuary, putting on a righteous facade to claim credit and rewards? This is utterly absurd! It is a disgrace to our Rose, and everyone should rise up to punish you!"

The crowd fell silent, and many who had nearly drifted off to sleep were now suddenly alert.

Wang Feng being a spy was currently just a rumor. People gossiped about it behind his back, but no one would dare to bring it up in public. However, Horus bluntly said it out loud, and in front of all the Rose people and even the Light of the Holy Sanctuary.

This immediately caused a stir, with the entire venue erupting into a buzz of whispers.

Old Wang also chuckled. Damn, he had been rambling on stage for so long, nearly drying his throat, waiting for someone like this to come forward and cause trouble.

This was the main event of the day. In fact, even if Horus hadn't stepped forward, Old Wang had already arranged for a "plant" to create such an incident at any moment, now saving Fantasy and Mo Tong some trouble.

"Quiet, quiet!" Old Wang smiled and pressed his hands down toward the noisy crowd: "Everyone, don't rush. The one who spoke just now, don't let him run away, keep an eye on him!"

Horus sneered: "What kind of trash dares to spout nonsense, keep an eye on me? What do you mean..."

His words abruptly stopped because at that moment, he felt the chill of Ice Spirit on his back, as if a ghostly shadow had already stood behind him, making his hair stand on end.

Old Wang ignored him, and the entire venue continued to murmur, like a pot boiling over. Hei Wu Kai and others were present, and at this moment, they were all a bit worried. The crowd was agitated, and this was something that couldn't be suppressed. If Wang Feng used his usual tricks here, it would only make things more complicated.

"Damn, Wang Feng may be a scoundrel, but he can't possibly be a member of the Nine Gods. That bastard, let me go over and beat him up!" Mo Tong shouted.

Longmoer gave him a cold glance, "Sit down!"

Lucky Heaven showed no expression, while Yin Fu was a bit anxious but helpless. This kind of situation wasn't something that could be solved with fists. The reason Hei Wu Kai didn't want to get involved in these matters was that he understood that often, strength was useless, and absolute power had to reach the level of the Supreme Saint.

"Wang Feng should have a way out," Hei Wu Kai said. Others might not have a solution, but if anyone did, it would be Wang Feng.

Wang Feng waved his hand, signaling everyone to quiet down, "Today's meeting, everything before was just an appetizer. There is a crucial matter I need to discuss with everyone."

As he paused, everyone's eyes were on Wang Feng, and the air seemed to freeze.

"I, Wang Feng, am a mole for the Nine Gods, Dandelion!"
