Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1020: You Are Qualified to Be My Arch-Enemy!

“Don’t worry, this sickness won’t cause death. It would at most feel a little unbearable and you would become disfigured.”

Sun Mo explained.

“Becoming disfigured is nothing serious?”

The great teachers were anxious. This was especially so for those great teachers whose looks were below average. They felt even more panic after hearing this.

(If I become uglier than before, how can I still meet people?)

“Wait a minute, you were able to know how these pustules form so quickly. This means that you have discovered that this would happen earlier?”

Liu Xu questioned.

One couldn’t help but admit that this fellow’s brains were very good.

Also, he had noticed that Sun Mo’s action earlier was extremely fast. He even had the time to pull the little maid along with him.

(How good would it be if you pulled me along? I’m someone who would remember this favor and repay you for it. What can the little maid give you? At most, she can warm your bed and you might even find her to be too skinny for your liking? I really can’t understand!)

Swish~

Everyone turned their gazes over and they were filled with unhappiness.

They were waiting for an explanation.

Sun Mo had inspected Zhou Wenbin and also understood his condition. This meant that he might very well have guessed that such a situation might occur. But why didn’t he say it earlier?

(Everyone can understand if you say you hate the Zhou Clan and want to teach them a lesson, not wanting to cure the sickness fully. But why must you implicate so many innocent people?)

“Listen to my explanation first.”

Sun Mo indicated for everyone to calm down.

“Since I’ve agreed to Teacher Zhou’s request, I will naturally do my best to save Zhou Wenbin. Honestly speaking, right at the very start, I didn’t discover these pustules. Only after I ascertained that the charcoal basin method works and Wenbin’s condition improved did I discover this might happen. These pustules also have no known names yet. They grow in damp areas on the roots of plants and belong to a certain fern species. They won’t cause any mortal danger to the human body but will trigger itchiness and piercing pain. When these pustules come in contact with warm water and blood, they will explode. So, the more you guys scratch, the more serious the damage will be.”

Sun Mo explained.

This knowledge naturally came from those encyclopedias.

“I also don’t want to scratch.”

The great teachers felt very helpless.

The pustules were too itchy and the people here wanted nothing more than to scratch their facial skin off.

“Next is the main point.” Sun Mo continued. “If the culprit wants to harm people from the Zhou Clan, he could simply use the fungi. Why is there a need for him to take an extra step and ‘plant’ these pustules in Zhou Wenbin’s face?

“Let me add another sentence, when these pustules come in contact with warm water, their growth speed will increase several times and they will mature rapidly.”

Everyone frowned and couldn’t understand. “Why?”

Only Liang Hongda, who was used to scheming, reacted very quickly.

“He means that the culprit wants to prank someone?”

The vice sect lord looked at Sun Mo and was suddenly enlightened about the other party’s target. “Actually, it wasn’t Zhou Wenbin. The culprit’s target was Sun Mo!”

“Sun Mo?”

Zhou Xingtong’s expression sank. If Sun Mo was causing his beloved grandson to suffer for no reason at all, he would definitely get him to return this debt.

“Sect Lord Liang, please don’t swindle me!”

Sun Mo chortled. “It might also be because the number of people Zhou Clan has offended is too much. The enemy might simply hate Zhou Wenbin because he’s from the Zhou Clan and they want to teach him a lesson. Besides, if that person really is targeting me, why doesn’t he simply act against my students?”

This reason was quite logical.

However, Liang Hongda still felt that the former reason was the truth.

Firstly, there was a crack in the relationship between Sun Mo and the Zhou Clan. The Zhou Clan was at their wit’s end and could only seek him out for help. There was also an 80 to 90% chance that Sun Mo would reject them.

By doing so, this action would offend the Zhou Clan’s people to the maximum.

However, the Zhou Clan would be reluctant to let a genius that was rarely seen in a hundred years perish just like that. They would surely seek Sun Mo out again and again until he agreed to help.

Why didn’t the culprit use Sun Mo’s personal students as targets?

Because the audience would be too few!

How would things be like now where the Zhou Clan had invited so many high star-ranking great teachers to be the ‘audience’?

If Sun Mo lost face in this setting, his reputation would surely be tarnished within a few days. His fame would drop greatly as this matter spread throughout the great teacher world.

Also, if he failed to treat Zhou Wenbin despite the Zhou Clan spending a huge price, the Zhou Clan would surely take revenge.

“Who have you recently offended?”

Zhou Xingtong wasn’t foolish and had also thought of all of these.

“You!”

Sun Mo’s words were concise and comprehensive.

Zhou Xingtong almost coughed up blood from his anger.

“Alright, the main question now is how should we treat this?”

Liu Xu stared at Sun Mo with pleading in his eyes.

“I’ve said that this sickness won’t kill. It’s just a prank from that culprit.”

Sun Mo shrugged.

He naturally could treat this. But after seeing that Zhou Xingtong was also suffering, he didn’t feel like caring about this.

(There is no solution to it. Who told you not to contribute any favorable impression points earlier when you apologized to me?! This means that you aren’t sincere!)

“Teacher Sun, help everyone out, please?”

A great teacher complained tearfully.

“Don’t you guys want to know the identity of the culprit?”

Sun Mo’s words immediately caused everyone in the room to quieten down. After that, killing intent started to permeate the area.

(No matter who the culprit is, he has to die!)

“Do you know?”

Liang Hongda’s tone of voice was cold.

“We have to continue to analyze!”

Sun Mo’s gaze swept through all the great teachers here. “By analyzing from the perspectives of personality, someone who could pull a prank on all the high star-ranking great teachers would surely be an arrogant, brazen, confident, and egotistical person. Someone like this would surely be at the scene personally so he could admire the embarrassing straits of the other major characters due to his prank.

“Because the joy that comes from spectating in the shadows is simply too weak.”

Everyone was stunned and then stared around at their surroundings.

“You are saying…”

Liang Hongda stared at the great teachers in the room. “Is that fellow among us?”

These great teachers were all invited by Zhou Xingtong. Although they were very famous, they were not mutually acquainted with each other.

Hua~

The atmosphere of the room immediately became tense.

“No one is allowed to leave. We will find people to identify each of us here.”

Liu Xu roared.

The intellect of these major characters would surely not be weak. They instantly thought of an idea to find out who the culprit was.

“There’s no need for so much trouble. Since this detail was discovered by Teacher Sun, he would surely have the answer.”

Liang Hongda trusted Sun Mo’s intellect.

“I wonder what is the name of this teacher?”

Sun Mo looked at Liu Xu.

Swish~

The gazes of everyone turned over. Some of the bad-tempered ones even prepared to unleash their ultimate attacks.

“Sun Mo, don’t speak recklessly. The culprit isn’t me!”

All of Liu Xu’s fine hair immediately stood up due to fright.

If he was attacked by everyone right now, he would die for sure.

“Liu Xu, are you a dark great teacher?”

Liang Hongda questioned.

“In Yan Province, I have a high status and enjoy great authority. Why would I be crazy and become a dark great teacher?”

Liu Xu grew anxious. “Sun Mo, please don’t deduce things in such a nonsensical method.”

However, no one bothered with Liu Xu’s explanation.

Sun Mo was a rising superstar with outstanding intellect. In that case, his deduction would surely not be incorrect. Moreover, everyone knew that some great teachers had identities in both the Saint Gate and the Dark Dawn.

“Sun Mo!”

Liu Xu was about to cry from anxiety. He wanted nothing more than to kill Sun Mo now, but he didn’t dare to act. If he did so, his actions would prove that Sun Mo was correct.

If not, why would he seek to kill Sun Mo?

“Haha, I apologize. I was only curious about your name. I didn’t say that you are the culprit.”

Sun Mo shrugged.

“Teacher Sun, please stop joking.”

Liang Hongda was speechless. He knew that Sun Mo was using this chance to get back at Liu Xu for his rude questioning earlier.

(Speaking of which, are you not too narrow-minded?)

“Alright, let’s get back to the main topic.” Sun Mo stared at the short-haired teacher. “There, this man is the person you all are looking for!”

“Teacher Yan?”

Everyone frowned.

“It can’t be, right? Isn’t he Teacher Zhou’s good friend?”

Divine Doctor Feng was astonished.

“This is the so-called ‘the dimness under the light’.”

Sun Mo explained. “Usually, Teacher Zhou would surely be able to tell the difference. But in such a situation, all his attention was on his grandson. How would he have the time and presence of mind to pay attention to other people?”

The gazes of everyone landed on this great teacher with the surname ‘Yan’, waiting for his explanation.

But contrary to their expectations, his first sentence stunned everyone.

“How did you discover me?”

Swish~

Everyone immediately adopted attacking postures. However, they didn’t attack carelessly.

Sun Mo was actually correct. This fellow was so egotistical and actually admitted to this directly without bothering to argue and explain.

(He is so calm, could it be that he has some trump cards?)

(At such a time, those who attacked first would definitely become cannon fodders. Moreover, this place was Zhou Xintong’s territory, he should be the one to probe instead!)

One couldn’t help but say that great teachers also understand the principle of ‘a wise man looks after his own hide’. Their minds spun rapidly.

“Actually, at the very beginning, I didn’t discover the existence of the pustules. But someone like me is innately cautious. Moreover, I was acting before so many great teachers and wouldn’t it be very embarrassing if I made a mistake? Hence, I did the inspection very seriously and finally managed to discover the existence of the pustules.

“Also, the special characteristics of these pustules had me wondering why the enemy would do this and prank us? I then suspected that the culprit might be among us and what’s left is simply observation. It’s too bad that you let the cat out of the bag.

“When Zhou Wenbin screamed and everyone crowded around to express their concern, your steps were the slowest. Clearly, you intentionally wanted to lag behind as you were afraid you might get splashed with the eruption too.

“Also, you were the first person to ask a question while hinting at the stench. However, you were very smart and only said the opening part, without adding any further sentences. This is because you knew that the others would surely chip in to express their concern for Zhou Wenbin and clearly bring up the topic of showering.”

“But I want to add another sentence too. Your patience is too weak. Before the spores erupted, your lips had already curled into a smile when you saw everyone gathering before the bed.”

Sun Mo was curious. “Who are you exactly?”

Pak! Pak! Pak!

The short-haired great teacher applauded as he laughed loudly.

“Fascinating! Truly fascinating! As expected of a great teacher I admire! Actually, I regarded Zhou Wenbin very highly and wished to accept him as my personal student. However, he actually rejected me. Hence, I could only make good use of rubbish and arranged this situation to test myself against Teacher Sun!”

The short-haired great teacher stared at Sun Mo.

“Not bad. Your performance was perfect and didn’t disappoint me. You are qualified to be my arch-enemy.”

So this did have a connection with Sun Mo.

The major characters here were all depressed. Liang Hongda was actually correct.

However, Sun Mo was really outstanding!

Observation, knowledge reserves, calmness, deduction prowess, on-the-spot reactions—all of his qualities were extremely strong.

If it wasn’t for Sun Mo, everyone would have completely lost face and be embarrassed before this dark great teacher.

Hence, all of them contributed a total of over 10,000 favorable impression points.

“Why are you guys still in a daze? Capture him!”

Zhou Xingtong roared and lunged toward the short-haired great teacher.

Liang Hongda also acted.

BOOM!

Spirit pressure gushed forth, so intense that it felt hard to breathe.

Sun Mo hurriedly retreated. He naturally didn’t wish to get involved.
