Chapter 70 Members of the Trial Committee
Chapter 70 Members of the Trial Committee
Mu Bai was sitting next to Su Ming, who had been resting with his eyes closed, but was awakened by the woman's shouts. After observing for a while and listening to the woman curse a few times, Mu Bai understood what the reason was.
He looked at Su Ming without saying a word, watching what he was about to do. If it were the old Mu Bai, he wouldn't even need to say a word to be scolded into being stupid by this mother and daughter, but now Mu Bai's mentality had improved a lot, and he would only use his fists to teach this lady a lesson.
Mu Bai now realizes that Mo Fan's fist-based teaching method actually makes a lot of sense.
What can you do when some people are unreasonable? The only way is to use force, the simplest and quickest method.
Su Ming also planned to do this. He and this woman would not have any contact in the future, so why bother explaining? She might not even listen.
Su Ming's eyes changed; his black pupils turned silver as he quietly gazed at the woman.
The woman felt a chill run down her spine upon seeing this, realizing that this was a magician warning her that he would use magic if she caused trouble again.
So what if she's a mage? She's been talking for so long. If she backs down just because she sees the other person is a mage, how can she ever live with herself again? Besides, mages can't act recklessly towards ordinary people, or the Inquisition will come looking for her.
Just as the woman was about to speak, Su Ming activated his magic, which was merely a low-level spatial magic.
More than enough to deal with an ordinary person.
Under the influence of the magic, the woman was unable to utter a single word; her entire body was stiff, as if a thousand-pound weight was pressing down on her.
He couldn't even move his eyes, and a look of terror appeared deep in his pupils.
The woman, who had been so arrogant just moments before, suddenly fell silent and stood motionless in the spot, surrounded by silvery-white dust.
Anyone with a modicum of common sense would know that this was a magician, and that he had already used magic to immobilize the woman. Since the other party was a magician, those who had been denouncing Su Ming immediately shut their mouths, sat up straight, and stared ahead, afraid that Su Ming would also strike them.
The little girl continued to cry, so Su Ming cast another spell on her. The little girl stopped crying instantly and froze in place, motionless.
Perfect, this is much quieter.
Instead of wasting time on trivial matters, this is the fastest and most effortless way.
Su Ming couldn't be bothered to argue with her; there was no benefit to it whatsoever.
Seeing this, the flight attendant wanted Su Ming to take the woman back, as it wasn't appropriate for her to be standing in the aisle like that.
She had already tried, but couldn't move. Just as she was about to speak to Su Ming, he interrupted her.
Su Ming didn't speak, but just looked at the flight attendant, the meaning of which was self-evident: don't bother me.
Since even the great magician said so, what could the flight attendant do but leave?
Wu Ku glanced at Su Ming and said with a smile, "You still need to change the way you handle things in the future. The opinions of the people are very important, and those in important positions need the support of the people."
"If I were to take up a high-ranking position, do you really think she would support me?" Su Ming retorted.
"Even if we don't get support, we can't get hatred. The will of the people has a greater influence than we imagine," Wu Ku said.
"So you're acting like some kind of Bodhisattva Wu in the ancient capital, all for the sake of public support?" Su Ming asked again.
"no."
Wu Ku shook his head: "I don't need the support of the people. Only you need that stuff. I will never need it. I only do things according to my own heart."
Su Ming shrugged, offering no rebuttal.
After the woman was subdued, she became much quieter, and everyone else sat up straight as well.
Su Ming, this mage, has a rather bad temper, and I'm afraid of accidentally offending him.
The flight attendant arrived after leaving, and there were still two people there.
One was the chief flight attendant, and the other was neither a flight attendant nor a police officer.
He was dressed in ordinary casual clothes, sitting there with his eyes closed, resting.
He opened his eyes after the flight attendant came in, and seeing the troubled look on her face, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"There's been a bit of a situation outside. Two people are getting into a fight, one of whom is a magician. He used magic to make another lady stand in the aisle and can't move," the flight attendant said after organizing her thoughts.
"A magician?" Shen Juan frowned. He knew of a few spells that could make ordinary people stand still, the most likely being spatial magic. Although mental magic could also make others think they were trapped in a mental world to achieve the same effect, it could not keep them completely still.
It might be possible on flat ground, but it's very difficult to do on an airplane.
A space-based magician?
Shen Juan's heart grew heavy. This was no ordinary matter. Spatial elemental abilities were mostly awakened at the high level, and controlling a person required mid-level mental power.
Initial-level mental power can be controlled, but not used at will.
This makes things very complicated.
A mid-level mage with at least a spatial magic ability.
Shen Juan stood up. "I'll go see what's going on."
Shen Juan is a member of the Tribunal. He has an important mission to hand over to Helan Mountain, but he doesn't know the specifics. He will be received when he arrives.
Because he was traveling in the name of the court, he received considerable courtesy and was free to do so on the plane.
As members of the Inquisition, they could not stand idly by when they learned that a magician was attacking an ordinary person.
He entered the economy class and immediately spotted the woman standing in the aisle.
He walked over, examined it carefully, and confirmed that it was spatial magic.
People around looked over when they saw someone coming. A few of us noticed that Shen Juan's aura was unusual, and he was likely a magician. We couldn't help but secretly point at Su Ming's side.
Shen Juan also realized that Su Ming, who was resting with his eyes closed, was the space magician.
Shen Juan was about to speak when Liu Qi stood up, placed his hand on Shen Juan, and said, "Brother, don't disturb my boss, he needs to rest."
Su Ming, who was about to open his eyes and get up, did not get up after hearing Liu Qi's words, but quietly leaned back in his seat.
Shen Juan frowned. He hadn't even sensed Liu Qi approaching him. He wouldn't have noticed if Liu Qi hadn't spoken.
You have to understand that he started as a sound-based mage, with an incredibly keen sense of his surroundings. For someone to be completely oblivious to him, this person... is no ordinary person. He's probably at the same level as him, or even higher.
One airplane and two highly skilled magicians?
Shen Juan didn't disturb Su Ming, but looked at Liu Qi and pointed at the woman who was restrained, saying, "I am a member of the Tribunal. You need to explain what's going on with this woman. It's easy for accidents to happen if someone stands in the aisle while the plane is in motion."
"It's alright, my boss has her restrained. She's much more stable now than when she was sitting in her seat, so there's no chance of anything going wrong," Liu Qi said.
"That won't do either. Let her go back to her seat," Shen Juan said firmly, frowning.
"Then there's nothing I can do. You'll have to talk to the boss." Liu Qi shrugged, indicating that he was also helpless.
