788 Evidence
Liu Feng scowled. “He is the mole. Look! I’ve already seen all the messages hidden in his phone. They held chat records from ten years ago,” he snapped. “If you don’t believe me, then you can take a look for yourself.”
Who knew that their information had been leaked for the last ten years?
If it weren’t for the fact that the Inner Pavilion had installed a block device on their phones, then he probably wouldn’t have taken the risk to go over the wall like this.
Just the thought about this was enough to make him clench his jaw.
“What is going on? Explain yourself!”
Elder Cai felt as if his entire world was falling apart this very minute. His entire body felt like it was just about to collapse, and his face was extremely pale.
His movements were slow and steady as he tore the cloth from his mouth. Cai Cheng immediately exploded into a coughing fit.
He tore off the cloth in Cai Cheng’s mouth and looked at him with pleading eyes. The tears in his eyes looked like they were about to fall in the next second.
“Please, tell me!”
Elder Cai looked as if he was about to choke on his own cries. Enduring the pain in his heart, he clenched his fists. “Tell me the truth!”
“I bet you didn’t expect it, huh?”
Cai Cheng had the nerve to smirk at him. Deep hatred flashed in his eyes as his cool gaze bored into the old man. “Oh, screw you, old man. Do you really think I’ll be loyal to someone like you?”
Everyone present in the room froze.
It really was him!
“But…”
“How could it be Cai Cheng? He’s been keeping him by his side for years!”
“Heavens, I don’t understand. Is this how you pay your teacher back?”
“That bastard!”
“You truly can’t judge a book by its cover, huh? How could it be him? Elder Cai is going to be devastated.”
“A traitor could never be forgiven.”
The crowd discussed even more animatedly, glancing at one another.
It was due to traitors like him that their Cabinet had resorted to his. All of them were continuously attacked and ambushed, resulting in many fruitless investigations. They all gritted their teeth.
They just didn’t know who the person was.
Until now, it was from someone they never expected.
“You’re good to me?”
Cai Cheng snorted. Hearing all the talk around him, he felt his heart tremble in his chest. Tears slowly trailed down his cheeks. “I’ve been in the cabinet for more than ten years, and not once have you taught me anything! You treated me like a servant, asking me to do all these kinds of chores for you. You never really thought me as anything but your dog!”
“It’s fine if you never wanted to put me on track to become an Elder, but I didn’t expect that you’d scorn my brother away too! You don’t think I’ve heard how you had asked the Elder to perform a stricter assessment on my brother? Is this the good treatment that you so proudly state?”
“Let’s be real, I’m nothing more than a servant to you!”
Elder Cai froze.
Was this how his disciple had thought of him?
He had always kept the young man by his side because he wanted to teach him personally. All his effort and knowledge, he made sure to share them with him.
The young man had an affinity for the arts. That was no doubt.
However, Cai Cheng had always been insincere when it came to improvement. He had a record of taking shortcuts, even if it meant limiting his learning.
Elder Cai, seeing these shortcomings, wanted to keep him by his side—to polish him further. He wanted to make sure that he didn’t fall on the wrong path.
He never treated him like a servant!
As for his brother, there were rumors that his brother was a bully. Not only that, but his qualifications were less than ordinary.
If he joined the Association, then they’d only be subjecting themselves to more gossip.
Elder Cai trembled. “It can’t be…”
He had always thought of him with every decision he made, but this was what his nephew truly thought of him! How could this be?
Cai Cheng raised his eyebrows in pride.
“The Green Cloud Pavilion has always treated me like their own. As long as I share all this information, I’ll become an Elder in no time! Only then would I have the resources to create my own Sect. Don’t you understand? I’ve always said that you’ll regret treating me like this, old man!”
His mouth twitched.
