Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

been others to witness it, he could’ve just killed them all too!

Third Prince and the other members of the imperial family were very concerned about this matter.
Only after Jun Hanlin had performed several humiliating acts did he finally manage to convince them that the rumor wasn’t true.
But he knew that they definitely wouldn’t let their guard down as easily as before, making his future plans much more difficult.

“Master, Shen Yaoguang has been remaining within the Shen Clan’s premises as of late and hasn’t come out…”

“Think you’ll be fine hiding behind the Shen Clan?” Jun Hanlin harrumphed coldly before turning to speak to the man kneeling on the ground, “The Shen Clan is too flagrant.”

‘Shen Yaoguang, since you think the Shen Clan is your strongest backing, then I’ll show you how I’ll rip it out from the roots!’

The kneeling man paused for a bit before saluting.
“Your subordinate understands.”

……

Though Jun Hanlin plotted to destroy the Shen Clan in secret, Shi Sheng hadn’t placed him on her mind at all as she continued to wander around the academy every day.
Perhaps she was too bored, for she began picking fights at the slightest provocation.

This wasn’t an ideal situation for Shi Sheng’s teacher, Ye Tiannan.

It was really quite an experience, having to go to the punishment hall to bail someone out every day.

“Yaoguang ah, can you tone it down a bit and gimme some peace?” Hobo Uncle pleaded sincerely.
“A group of mad men are coming over in a few days, so we gotta lay low!”

“Mad men? What mad men?” Shi Sheng ignored the first half of Ye Tiannan’s words.

“Ever heard of Nine Silences Hall? What am I saying? Even a three-year old would know! Of course you’d know!”

Shi Sheng, “…” ‘Wasn’t that the name of villain-sama’s organisation?’

Even if someone was unaware as to who were the rulers of the Nine Provinces, it was impossible that they hadn’t heard of Bu Jingyun.

“Nine Silences Hall is sending people to the academy in a few days.
Though it’s supposed to be a ‘friendly competition’, they’re really here to kill people.
You lay low for a bit these few days, else that old fogey Zhong Shiyi’s going to play dirty.
I can’t save you then!”

Ever since Nine Silences Hall had become famous, they’d have a friendly competition with Nine Provinces Academy every three years.

At first, it really had been a friendly competition.
But once Nine Silences Hall became more powerful, it had turned into a one-sided beating on the Nine Provinces Academy.

It had eventually evolved into something akin to a tri-annual ‘excursion’ for Nine Silences Hall, where they reaped countless ‘kills’ and collected beauties.

Even if Nine Provinces Academy wasn’t delighted by this fact, they could only keep quiet.
After all, they couldn’t exactly blame the other party for their own people being too weak, could they? Unwilling to admit defeat? Haha, do you want to be crushed?

Shi Sheng attempted to recall what happened in the original setting. ‘Oh right, there was some event like this.
Though I seem to recall that this time, they suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the FL.’

That was also when the seeds of enmity between the female lead and Nine Silences Hall had been sown.

“Is Bu Jingyun coming?”

“Him? That lunatic hasn’t stepped out of Nine Silences Hall in over a century! He won’t show up.
The one who’ll show up will probably be the Sentinel of Nine Silences Hall… Anyways, they’re all a bunch of lunatics who’ve been raised by a nutjob.
None of them are pushovers, mind.”

‘A bunch of lunatics raised by a nutjob… Ye Tiannan, those words will result in you getting mobbed by that group of loonies!’

“Yaoguang, listen to me! The cultivators from Nine Silences Hall aren’t good to provoke.
You just be a quiet beauty these few days, ‘kay?”

Shi Sheng, “…” ‘Well isn’t this Hobo Uncle a hip dude? I only had to utter the phrase in front of him once, and now he’s using it like he’s been using it his whole life!’

Shi Sheng gleaned plenty of information out of Ye Tiannan that hadn’t been in the setting she’d received.

Bu Jingyun became famous at the age of 25, and a century had already passed since then.

Once cultivators managed to reach the Spirit Monarch stage, their lifespans increased, so the average lifespan of the people of the Nine Provinces was around 200.
100… was a bit old.

And Bu Jingyun was a zealous recluse who refused to take a single step out of Nine Silences Hall unless trouble came knocking at his doorstep.
