Guo Youdao died in front of Lu Ping.
He was a careful elder, patiently guiding Lu Ping even before his death.
He had always had high hopes for Lu Ping, but in the end, he hadn't mentioned his hopes, nor had he talked about taking revenge. He hadn't mentioned the Zhaifeng Academy or his goal of surpassing the four great universities. Even if he knew very well that as long as he said it, Lu Ping would definitely agree and work hard to achieve it.
He did not say anything. He did not let his death become a shackle for Lu Ping. He just said that he wanted to protect something important and that he should do whatever he wanted. This was Lu Ping's original intention, and it had always been his simple and sincere wish. Guo Youdao followed Lu Ping's wishes and did not want him to bear too much burden.
At the same time, he was like a willful teenager, raising his right hand and proudly saying that he could defeat the City Lord of Canyon Peak District with one hand.
But at this moment, he still revealed a little expectation for Lu Ping.
"If you have enough strength, then it's a different story."
That was his expectation. What would a Heavenly Awakened with all six spirits be like when he had all his strength? Guo Youdao couldn't help but look forward to this scene, so he naturally revealed a yearning expression. If he could defeat the City Lord of Canyon Peak with one hand, then what about a Heavenly Awakened with all six spirits?
But after saying that, he had already left. He had left completely.
His body suddenly disintegrated.
Lu Ping said that he was broken, but in the end, he was even worse than Lu Ping said. He was so thin that he could not be touched, like a speck of dust, and eventually drifted with the wind in the Canyon Peak Mountain Range.
The Eclipse Purloin was a special ability that could deceive the world. No one understood it except for Guo Youdao himself. He left the last use of it to himself. His death was not very elegant, but it was very clean, so clean that there was nothing left, so clean that it did not leave the slightest trace in front of Lu Ping. What he had left for Lu Ping was just memories. They weren't many, but they were deeply memorable.
"Where did these two kids come from?"
Amidst the snowstorm, Su Tang had already fallen asleep on his back. And he could collapse at any time. He hoped that it would be Lu Ping who was in front of him, and he even wanted to use it as a name. At that moment, Guo Youdao appeared in front of him. Calling to him. The road after that was not only smooth, but also warm.
Lu Ping recalled the first time they met and recalled his three years of life in Zhenfeng College. However, he knew nothing about this dean who had saved him and Su Tang from the boundless snowfield.
What kind of background did he have?
How did he manage to cultivate an ability like Eclipse Purloin?
How did he become the Bandit, one of the Six Great Experts, with only the Four Spirits Connected?
How did he come from all four academies at the same time?
Why would he want to establish an academy to surpass the Big Four?
He didn't know. Not even Lu Ping knew. When he wanted to know, he didn't have the chance anymore.
The academy founded by Guo Youdao was named Wind Picking. At this time, he went with the wind.
Lu Ping raised his head and faced the wind.
When he was still very young, he had tears. He vaguely remembered that it was accompanied by pain, flying out uncontrollably, and then. There was no then. So he felt that this thing was really inexplicable and didn't know what it meant. Later, after the number of times of pain, this thing no longer came.
But at this time, he found that this inexplicable thing came back. He didn't want it to come, but it came out of his eyes uncontrollably and chased out with the wind.
"Farewell, dean."
Facing the wind, Lu Ping silently said in his heart and turned around. He went around the hillside to the other side of the lonely peak.
His body was still in some pain, but it was not unbearable. The injuries all over his body were actually just some cuts and bruises on the flesh. Although Guo Youdao's method did not completely resolve the impact of the fall. But it was handled very well. Lu Ping's injuries this time were actually much lighter than when he fell from the Soul Point Platform. His strength was gradually recovering, and these flesh injuries were not a big deal. He moved faster and faster, but he did not lose his caution.
He knew that the danger was far from over, or rather. It would not pass at all.
He did not understand this at first, but after listening to everyone's analysis, he had a certain understanding.
This battle was not a personal grudge. What the other party could not tolerate was that Lu Ping and the others had broken the rules and ignored them, the ruling forces.
From Lu Ping pushing Wei Tianqi away, from Lu Ping rejecting the invitation of City Lord Wei Zhong.
The conflict had already taken root at that time. To these people, this kind of thing was no different from killing their people. It was nothing more than killing more intensely, and the killer was more capable, so they would pay more attention to it, and retaliate with more strength.
Lu Ping had always insisted, because he had right and wrong in his heart, and he looked at right and wrong first.
Those people also insisted, because they had rules. They looked at the rules first, and made a choice between right and wrong in their hearts.
In this regard, the two elders, Chu Min was extremely disdainful, and Guo Youdao did not think much of it. As for Lu Ping and the others breaking the bottomless rules so stubbornly, the two of them did not say anything. Chu Min even fought with them, and Guo Youdao was just a little more cunning.
They also did not compromise, because they knew that there was something above the rules of these people.
Strong and weak.
Their rules came from the strong and weak, and what they obeyed was ultimately only the strong and the weak.
What Lu Ping saw at this moment was the best proof. The peak that had been split in half was in front of him.
Guo Youdao said that someone was coming, but he did not say who it was. But seeing the scene of the lonely peak being cut in half, Lu Ping could already guess who it was.
The scene of Guo Youdao appearing as a bandit twice was still vivid in Lu Ping's mind. This time, a true peerless expert with five spirits connected appeared. Lu Ping felt that he could guess what those people looked like.
So, Siffin should be safe, right?
That was the only thing Lu Ping cared about. That was the first thing he thought of.
He quickly went around the lonely peak. The slope on the east side of the lonely peak was indeed as Guo Youdao had said, much higher than the west side, and it was covered with trees.
Lu Ping went into the forest and activated the perception of the Soul Listening. He clearly remembered the direction in which Su Tang had been blasted from the peak. After looking up at the lonely peak, he identified the direction and walked in that direction.
Under the perception of the Soul Listening, the Soul Crying was operating at full force, and even ordinary hearing was greatly improved. Before Lu Ping could feel the power of the soul, there were voices coming from the forest in front of him.
In the direction that Lu Ping estimated that Su Tang had fallen, there were figures moving. They were all in the uniforms of the City Lord's Mansion's secret agents and garrison soldiers. There were quite a number of people.
According to Lu Ping's usual style, he would have rushed up at this time, but Guo Youdao's warning before his death was still in his ears. Lu Ping did not rush up rashly, and quickly hid behind a tree. He concentrated and listened to the voice coming from the hillside.
"What's going on, falling from such a high mountain, how can she still be alive and well!" A surprised voice asked.
"No … it's not that …" He replied breathlessly. It was obvious that he was heavily injured.
"Someone saved her." The half-dead voice continued.
"Who is it?" This question was filled with nervousness and unease. They already knew that a peerless expert who could split the lonely peak in front of them had come here, and it seemed that he was not on good terms with them.
"No … I don't know …" The half-dead voice said.
It was usually not good news that there was more than one opponent, but now that they heard such an answer, everyone let out a sigh of relief. Lu Ping could even hear it from the hillside.
If it was not one person, then it was naturally not that peerless expert, and naturally, it was not as scary.
"Where did he escape to after he was rescued?" The voice that had been very nervous and uneasy just a moment ago suddenly became arrogant again.
"No … I don't know." The half-dead voice replied.
"Trash! What's the use of you! Bring her back. Damn it, we didn't catch a single one, what are you all doing? "The voice continued to curse." Search everywhere. "
"Yes." The people scattered and searched. Lu Ping hurriedly left that place.
Not a single one was caught.
The last information that the person revealed was undoubtedly good news for Lu Ping, the others had taken good care of him. But who saved Su Tang? Lu Ping avoided the searching secret agents and soldiers in the forest, and circled back to the place where those guys had gathered. Lu Ping hoped to find some clues from there, but in the end, he found nothing.
