"Seize her," Lei He ordered the enforcers.
The enforcers promptly encircled Ye Wanwan and made to capture her in one move.
"Let me see who'd dare!" Ye Wanwan shouted severely.
"What? You think someone like you can resist?" Meng Ke glanced at her.
"Who do you think you are?" Ye Wanwan's gaze landed on Meng Ke.
"What did you say…" A chilly glint flitted through Meng Ke's eyes.
However, Ye Wanwan ignored Meng Ke and turned to Lei He and the other higher-ups instead. She snorted and said, "You Scarlet Flames Academy higher-ups are seriously shameless."
All the higher-ups present were startled.
Ever since Scarlet Flames Academy was established, no one had dared to publicly insult the academy's higher-ups and elders aside from Worriless Nie. This woman was the second person to do so. Not only that, but she was also a mere D-rank mercenary!
"You deserve to be killed for your offense of disrespect!" Zhang Da yelled.
"Screw your offense of disrespect!" Ye Wanwan rolled her eyes. "You claiming that I defected is an act of slander and you're creating rumors. If I'm condemned by chance, you'd be committing homicide. Killing your own academy's mercenary is considered eliciting internal strife and betraying the academy! I'm asking you—which offense is greater?"
Before the higher-ups and elders could respond, Elder Gong turned to Ye Wanwan and said, "Wanwan, you're saying you didn't defect and were wronged?"
"That's right, Master." Ye Wanwan nodded.
"Hah, what a cosmic joke! You're saying you didn't defect? Do you have proof?" an old woman asked.
"Hah, what a cosmic joke! You're saying I defected? Do you have proof?" Ye Wanwan glanced at the old woman.
"You…" The old woman trembled with anger.
"My words are proof!" Zhang Da shouted.
"Really? Why don't you shoot into the heavens then? Even the headmaster isn't as tyrannical as a low-ranking instructor like you! It was clearly because I discovered you had shady dealings with a higher-up from Stars and Sun Academy! Is that why you wanted to frame me in retaliation?" Ye Wanwan snorted.
"Who's having shady dealings with Stars and Sun Academy?! Don't talk bullsh*t!" Zhang Da angrily glared at Ye Wanwan.
Stars and Sun Academy and Scarlet Flames Academy had always been archenemies. This kind of offense wasn't a joke.
"You! You have shady dealings with Stars and Sun Academy's higher-ups, so you wanted to silence me permanently," Ye Wanwan retorted aloofly.
"Do you have proof?!" Zhang Da questioned.
"My words are proof!" Ye Wanwan returned his original words to him.
"You little sharp-tongued b*stard!" Zhang Da was livid from rage.
"Oh, I wouldn't dare to be a little b*stard. I'm at least better than you, an old b*stard." Ye Wanwan was all smiles.
"Wanwan, if you have proof, then show everyone. With master here, you don't need to be afraid of anyone," Elder Gong said next to her.
Ye Wanwan immediately told the whole story to Elder Gong.
"Master, I finished the rank missions, so I didn't defect at all," Ye Wanwan added with a smile.
As soon as she said that, all the higher-ups, including Lei He and Elder Gong, all wore odd expressions.
A D-rank mercenary claimed she finished an rank mission?!
