When Yang Qingxuan was about to enter the carriage, he suddenly felt an extraordinary force pressing down from the sky.
This force was vague and traceless, as if it had merged with the power of the sky and the earth. It was everywhere and nowhere to hide.
He wasn't the only one. Everyone in the convoy felt the pressure. They all raised their heads in shock and looked forward.
Inside the carriage, Lu Jiangpeng, who had closed his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes with a dignified look.
Spark was the opposite. He was so happy that he couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Jiangpeng grabbed Spark and got out of the carriage.
In front of the carriage, a figure floated over. His hands were clasped behind his back, and his feet didn't touch the ground. He didn't move at all, just like a falling leaf. Soon, he arrived in front of them.
Jingjing's face changed. She screamed, "Dean!"
That man wore a gray robe with white hair and beard. He smiled and stroked his long beard, nodding to Jingjing.
Yang Qingxuan was also shocked. This old man was the Dean of the Haoran School, Ding Yuan.
Ding Yuan floated over, clasped his fists and smiled. "Elder Lu, long time no see."
Lu Jiangpeng harrumphed and said, "It's been a long time. It's a little awkward to meet you now."
Ding Yuan smiled embarrassedly. "Yeah, it's a little awkward. But no matter how awkward it is, I have to meet you."
Lu Jiangpeng said, "It's useless to meet you. You should go back."
Ding Yuan clasped his hands and smiled. "I hope Elder Lu can give me some face."
Lu Jiangpeng said coldly, "It's not that I don't want to give you face, but I don't know how to give you face."
Ding Yuan knew he was in the wrong. He said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Elder Lu. But the Vice Dean of the Haoran School and the future Monarch of the Duan Yang Country were taken to the Cangnan Country. If this matter is spread out, how can the Duan Yang Country and the Haoran School deal with it?"
Spark and Shangguan Haitang were ashamed. They lowered their heads and didn't say anything.
Lu Jiangpeng kept silent, as if he also felt it was serious.
Wei Zi Jin and the others were anxious. If Lu Jiangpeng wavered and Spark and Shangguan Haitang were released, the initiative in their hands would be gone.
"Haha, Dean, you're right."
Yang Qingxuan rode his white horse forward and sneered, "But … what does this have to do with us? It's your Duanyang Country and Haoran Academy who are embarrassed. Cangnan Country has no obligation to clean up your mess, let alone spoil you. "
Lu Jiangpeng nodded, "Qing Xuan is right."
Although his strength was tyrannical, he was not as tactful and experienced as Yang Qingxuan when it came to dealing with people.
"This little friend is …"
Ding Yuan looked at Yang Qingxuan in surprise.
Lu Jiangpeng said, "My student, Yang Qingxuan."
Ding Yuan revealed a look of surprise, and said, "Only sixteen years old, and already at the early stage of the Jade Bone Realm. The younger generation will truly surpass us in time."
Yang Qingxuan smiled and said, "Dean Ding, you're exaggerating. You're only a few decades old, but you're already a great master of the Origin Martial Arts Realm. Dean of Haoran Academy, that's the style of a senior."
Being praised by him, Ding Yuan felt awkward. His old face blushed, and he chuckled twice.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Dean Ding, if there's nothing else, please make way. We still have to hurry."
Ding Yuan said, "Little friend, you don't know. Since I've lowered my face to ask for your help, I must bring him back. Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed again."
Yang Qingxuan glared and waved his hand, saying, "Dean Ding, it's your problem if you're embarrassed. What does it have to do with us? As long as we don't embarrass ourselves, it's fine. Sir Dean, please make way. "
Ding Yuan only felt extremely sullen. He was the Dean, but he was being played by a student of Tiancong Academy. But he was the one asking for help, so he could not lose his temper. He could only say, "If I don't bring him back today, I won't go back."
Yang Qingxuan cupped his fists and said, "Dean Ding's conviction is firm. This junior is deeply moved. It's not good to force Sir Dean to make way." He raised his hand and said loudly, "We'll make way for Dean Ding. Everyone, take a detour."
"Take a detour, take a detour."
Shouts were heard one after another.
Lu Jiangpeng stood on the side. Seeing Ding Yuan's pale face, he couldn't help but laugh. He thought that Ding Yuan had stumbled.
Spark and Shangguan Haitang's faces were also ugly. Their faces were filled with hatred and murderous aura.
Finally, Ding Yuan couldn't hold it anymore. Anger rose on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Elder Lu, look at what this is!"
He raised his hand, which was holding an octagonal lantern.
That lantern was made of a dark green gauze canopy, which depicted all kinds of creatures. Among them, there was a vivid picture of a golden dragon soaring among the clouds. The top four corners depicted a dragon head holding a pearl, while the bottom four depicted a fire phoenix holding a spirit wood.
The tassels on the lantern swayed as the red candles in the center shone brightly.
Lu Jiangpeng's face changed. He exclaimed, "Octagonal Candle Dragon Lantern!"
The lantern's light wasn't very bright, but it shone on everyone's face. They could feel it.
Spark was also surprised. He was both happy and worried, but more than that, he was ashamed.
Ding Yuan nodded and sighed. "Since I don't care about my face, I don't care about anything else. I brought this Octagonal Candle Dragon Lantern with me."
Yang Qingxuan suddenly said, "Dean Ding, do you mean that you want to use this broken lantern to exchange for the hostages?"
Ding Yuan was bewildered. He was almost enraged. "Of course not! This lantern is the most precious treasure of our Haoran Academy. I brought it here to risk my life with you! If I can't bring the hostages back today, I won't have the face to return to the academy. I'll risk my life here! "
The lantern flickered, giving people a restless feeling.
Yang Qingxuan gave him a thumbs-up. "You're awesome. I'm convinced!"
Then, he took out a soldier's saber and placed it on Spark's neck. "You want to compete? I'll compete with you. Let's see who's more ruthless! If you want to risk your life, come. I'll chop off this old man's head first! "
Everyone was shocked. He actually called himself "I" in front of the dean of Haoran Academy and even threatened to kill the vice dean. Even the people of King Lu's Mansion were shocked.
Ding Yuan was stunned for a moment and said angrily, "If you dare to touch a hair of Spark …"
"Swish!"
Before he could finish his words, the saber in Yang Qingxuan's hand trembled. A line of blood appeared on Spark's neck, and blood flowed down the blade.
Ding Yuan was dumbfounded on the spot. Lu Jiangpeng and the others were also dumbfounded.
Yang Qingxuan looked scared and said, "You're ruthless. You can continue to be ruthless. I'm a timid person. I was just scared and my hand trembled. If you scare me again, I'll go crazy. At that time, it won't be as simple as shaking my hand. My body will run around and cut people. "
He looked at Spark's head and then at Shangguan Haitang's head.
Ding Yuan was completely dumbfounded. He wanted to scare Lu Jiangpeng, but he didn't expect that there was someone even more ruthless.
