"Tell me, what do you know now?" Wen Gecheng said.
"Me?" Lu Ping stared blankly for a moment before shaking his head. "I don't understand what you mean."
"For example, why did you come to the North Style Academy?" Wen Gecheng said.
"Because I was wanted by the Black Army Empire, the dean said that only the Four Great Academies could serve as a shelter." Lu Ping said.
"That's for sure. You little rascals are really bold. " Wen Gecheng said with a smile. It was obvious that he had a good understanding of what Lu Ping and the others had done. However, he didn't agree and continued to ask, "Apart from that?"
"Apart from that?" Lu Ping shook his head blankly.
"No way!" This time it was Wen Gecheng's turn to be stunned. He who claimed to be omniscient realized that the matter this time wasn't as he thought. He glanced at Guo Wushu beside him, and Guo Wushu was also looking at him. After the two of them looked at each other, Guo Wushu said, "Regarding the North Style Academy, what did Guo Youdao say to you?"
"Nothing much." Lu Ping answered.
This answer caused Wen Gecheng and Guo Wushu to look at each other again. This time, Guo Wushu's gaze was more focused on Wen Gecheng, while Wen Gecheng began to avoid Guo Wushu's gaze after looking at each other. His expression was somewhat awkward.
"Aha … … So that's how it is." He laughed. It was rare for Wen Gecheng to be embarrassed because he made a mistake, but this wasn't the first time in front of Lu Ping.
"That … …" He said, and then thought. In the end, he didn't say anything else. He had already entered a state of complete speechlessness. Even though he had thousands of words in his heart, facing Guo Youdao's arrangement, he actually didn't know how to say these words in front of Lu Ping.
"What?" Lu Ping saw that he wanted to say something, but he asked instead.
"This is the arrangement that you racked your brains for?" Guo Wushu suddenly said this, not to Wen Gecheng, and not to Lu Ping, but to Guo Youdao. His sharp gaze swept over Lu Ping. There was sadness and disappointment in his eyes. Feeling indignant, he ignored the two of them and turned around to leave, just like how he had left Lu Ping behind. But this time … Wen Gecheng was one more person left behind. This time, he did not even leave a word behind.
"Ahem …" Wen Gecheng coughed, intending to adjust the current atmosphere. He was no longer as excited as before.
"What's going on?" Lu Ping asked.
"Where should I start …" Wen Gecheng scratched his head.
"Who was that?" Lu Ping asked.
"One of the seven academicians of the North Style Academy, Mizar Star's Guo Wushu. His identity is known to the whole world." Wen Gecheng said. "But what the world doesn't know is that beside the Mizar Star, there is an Auxiliary Star, just like the Big Dipper in the sky."
"Dean …" Lu Ping said in a low voice. When he heard the name of the Mizar Star, his heart skipped a beat. He immediately understood why Chen Jiu from the Megrez Star would unconsciously think of a certain person when he heard the name Guo Youdao. Guo Wushu, Guo Wudao. When these two names came together, it was easy for people to associate them. Now, it seemed that this association was reasonable.
"That's right." Wen Gecheng nodded and continued. "Your dean, Guo Youdao, is this Auxiliary Star. At the same time, he is also the elder brother of Mizar Star's Guo Wushu. I think there are very few people who know about this. I discovered it by accident. You should know the reason."
Lu Ping nodded. Wen Gecheng's Microscopic Seamless could identify a person's bloodline. He could tell at a glance that Siffin was from the Yan family. Then, after meeting Guo Wushu and Guo Youdao, he would naturally discover that these two people had the same bloodline.
"Yes … As for President Guo leaving the North Style Academy, he traveled around. In the end, he went to the Canyon Peak District to set up Zhenfeng College. I originally thought that you already knew about it. This is also the reason why I am waiting for you here. But now, it seems that you don't know about it. If that's the case … "Wen Gecheng hesitated. But his gaze was clearly waiting for Lu Ping's reaction.
"I want to know." Lu Ping said without hesitation.
"I don't think you have the same curiosity as me!" Wen Gecheng smiled. He was obviously very satisfied with Lu Ping's reaction.
"I don't." Lu Ping admitted this point. He wanted to know, not because he was curious. He wanted to know more about the dean. Even though the dean was no longer here.
"Alright then!" Wen Gecheng really didn't feel conflicted. He was about to open his mouth to explain, but a ray of flowing light suddenly flew to the peak. Like a sharp blade, it actually slashed towards Wen Gecheng.
"Ouch!" Wen Gecheng cried out in shock, and hurriedly dodged to the side. That ray of light slashed down, leaving a deep mark on the hard mountain rock of the peak. It wasn't hard to imagine that if Wen Gecheng didn't dodge in time, he would undoubtedly be split into two halves.
"Unrelated people don't need to know." The ray of light actually carried the sound transmission of the soul of Ming. Guo Wushu's cold voice came out at the same time the ray of light shattered, warning Wen Gecheng.
Wen Gecheng's face was ashen. He was indeed a little scared. This attack, it was obvious that Guo Wushu had left some leeway. Otherwise, Wen Gecheng wouldn't have had the chance to dodge. His Microscopic Seamless was indeed magical, and could often be used to predict the enemy's moves in battle. But the realm of Connected Two Spirits was a great weakness. Facing the attack of a top expert like Guo Wushu, even if he could predict the enemy's moves, he had no way to deal with it. It was like Lu Ping's Listening Soul against Qin Qi's flowing light.
"This Guo Wushu … … is much harder to deal with than his brother … …" Wen Gecheng shrunk his neck. He still dared to comment on Guo Wushu, but Guo Wushu stopped him from saying a word.
"Live well!" Wen Gecheng patted Lu Ping's shoulder. "This is probably President Guo's greatest hope for you."
Was that so?
Lu Ping smiled bitterly.
Live well, this was clearly his and Su Tang's greatest wish. The Dean's so-called expectations were nothing more than obeying his wishes. He did not forget what Guo Youdao had said to him in Zhiling City. He had more hopes for Lu Ping. But in the end, he completely respected Lu Ping's own wishes, and did not let him carry Guo Youdao's true hopes.
And this might have been what Wen Gecheng had originally wanted to say, but he had been interrupted by Guo Wushu. In the past, he had refused the dean's expectations, but now that he wanted to try to fulfill the dean's expectations, the other would not give him the chance.
"I want to know," Lu Ping said again, not to Wen Gecheng, but to the direction the flowing light was coming from.
The flowing light flew up again, even sharper than before. This time, it was heading for Lu Ping.
"Dodge!" Wen Gecheng shouted. This light was so fast that he could not deal with it.
Lu Ping did not move. He faced the light with his head up, very calm. He wanted to know with all his heart.
That light did not hold back, and actually struck down fiercely, passing through his body.
Lu Ping still did not move, and Wen Gecheng did not make a fuss this time. After all, he was someone who had the Seamless Microscope. At the last moment, he found that the light had changed. It became just light, and did not have any physical damage.
Lu Ping still looked in that direction. There was silence. Wen Gecheng began to look forward to it. After a while, the light did not come again. Instead, Ming Zhimo said something.
"Get down the mountain."
"Sigh." Wen Gecheng's hopes were dashed, and he sighed.
"Didn't I say? Much harder to deal with than his brother, "he said.
