CHAPTER 620: CHAPTER 215: PRINCE, DIRECT SOUL SEARCH! (6K)_4

After speaking, he pointed his finger at Zhou Qing, who was still fully focused on repairing, and his anger became even more intense.

Lin Daochen did not rush to refute, he just quietly looked at him, then turned his gaze to the scholarly Su Lishan, as if waiting for his response.

Su Lishan gritted his teeth at this moment and said with difficulty, "Wu is correct, and we have also evaluated and checked it. Now, in just three days, the entire array has been made precarious by you."

"Now that the array is on the verge of collapse, you must take primary responsibility."

After hearing this, Lin Daochen suddenly burst into laughter, with a hint of mockery and disdain in the laughter.

Then, he looked at the two of them and said coldly, "I, Lin Daochen, have quite the ability, haven’t I? I’ve only been here for two days and I’m about to destroy the entire Four-Color Array. Even I am a bit impressed with myself."

He paused, looked at the two of them, and continued, "Everyone is here, so I have a question for you two masters: If you found out that I was operating improperly, why didn’t you come to stop me?"

Wu Tiangang immediately replied without a second thought, "By the time we discovered it, it was already too late. You are, after all, a third-level array master, so we gave you some face and could only call the Prince to preside over justice."

Lin Daochen’s lips curled up into a sarcastic smile, "Oh, that’s how it is. You two have indeed thought it through thoroughly."

Seeing Lin Daochen’s contemptuous look, Xuanyuan Shuo gradually calmed down, his brows furrowed tightly, and his gaze wandered back and forth among the people, seemingly pondering something.

Seeing this, Lin Daochen seized the opportunity to press further, "I admit that at the beginning, I did damage two spirit patterns here, causing the array to become unstable. So I hurried to ask you two for help and advice, but why did neither of you want to come?"

"We are..."

"Isn’t that because you trust me?" Lin Daochen interrupted directly, his tone full of sarcasm.

Their faces froze instantly.

Lin Daochen snorted coldly, "I thought the array in the core area was already in critical condition, and you didn’t dare to touch it casually."

Upon hearing Lin Daochen’s words, a trace of panic flashed in their eyes, but they quickly forced themselves to act calm.

Wu Tiangang stepped forward again, angrily roaring, "Nonsense! The core array has already been mostly repaired by us. Given that you just arrived, we originally assigned you the simplest task to let you get familiar with it first, but we didn’t expect you to be so careless."

Su Lishan echoed, "We have the Imaging Stone as a record, and now your student is right there, which can’t possibly be falsified, right?"

Looking at their aggressive demeanor, Lin Daochen only felt it was so pathetic.

Are these really the two masters he had always revered?

To protect their own reputation, they twist the truth and frame others, which truly chills his heart.

At this moment, he looked at them calmly and said, "Is reputation really that important to you two?"

Obviously, Lin Daochen’s words struck a nerve, and the panic in their eyes became more apparent.

Wu Tiangang quickly pretended to be calm and said, "I don’t know what you’re talking about, but now, the barrier of our empire has been compromised by you three..."

"You better stop talking, thinking your loud voice is justified!" Lin Daochen interrupted Wu Tiangang again, making him furious, his face turning even redder.

My earlier question was giving you another chance.

It’s clear that you are still stubbornly clinging to your mistakes.

Lin Daochen took a deep breath and slowly said, "To be honest, you are actually too anxious. If you waited until the array completely collapsed to hold me accountable, I would have no objections, or even waited another day until the entire array was completely repaired, you would still get your credit."

"Completely repaired?" Su Lishan, who was already feeling guilty from the questioning, grasped the key point and shouted, "The entire array is beyond recovery, how can it be repaired in a day? By you? Or by your student?"

Seeing the ridicule and doubt on Su Lishan’s face, Lin Daochen no longer wanted to argue with them, finding it purely a waste of breath.

He then turned to Xuanyuan Shuo and said, "Prince, whether the array was damaged by me or not, it is actually quite simple to check—just Soul Search!"

As soon as these words came out, Su Lishan and Wu Tiangang’s faces changed drastically.
