Chen Chu looked at Shen Wuyin, his eyes twinkling. Those familiar with him knew that he was using his special ability "Profound Insight". This could allow him to sense many details that others couldn't.
"Don't worry." Shen Wuyin was looked at like this by Chen Chu, but he still calmly said, "I will definitely not do anything out of line."
The look in Chen Chu's eyes became meaningful. Because he knew that these words should be heard in reverse.
The meaning of "definitely not do anything out of line" was that they still had to do it.
I knew it would be like this. Chen Chu sighed in his heart.
He didn't know Shen Wuyin, but it wasn't like he hadn't interacted with students from State Protector Academy before. Otherwise, he wouldn't have reminded Lu Ping before.
Entering North Style Academy didn't mean that he would immediately abandon his previous identity and consider himself a member of the North Style Academy.
The world wasn't that simple, and neither were people's hearts.
North Style Academy, the academy that stood at the peak of the continent, was just a place to gild gold in many people's eyes. What they truly pursued had nothing to do with North Style Academy.
So tired.
Chen Chu always felt tired from these huge and complicated intentions and relationships.
That was why he didn't open his doors to accept disciples, and didn't establish his own faction. This wasn't entirely because he was a substitute for the former head disciple Huo Ying after he was sick. It was also because he had no interest in the management and competition of factions.
But most people didn't think so. Academies had always been an important faction that influenced the situation of the continent, especially the four great academies.
Thinking until here, Chen Chu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Then he looked at Lu Ping and calmly pointed at the people from State Protector Academy.
"Continue to be careful of them." He said to Lu Ping.
"Alright." Lu Ping nodded.
"Everyone, farewell." He nodded to everyone.
What he could do was only this much.
Because even though he hated factions and conflicts, he was still a member of a faction. He just didn't open the door himself. He was still the most important person on Alioth Peak other than Li Yaotian. He was the head disciple of Alioth Peak.
Chen Chu left.
Zhuo Qing and the others helped Yu Ran up. Although he was not dead, he was still very weak.
Zhuo Qing and the others had panicked when they were warned by Chen Chu, but they hadn't expected Shen Wuyin to be so calm and unyielding. At this moment, they could not help but look at him. Wait for his order.
"Let's go!" Shen Wuyin only called for them to leave. It was as if he didn't see Lu Ping as a person in his eyes.
Lu Ping didn't pay any attention to this. Without these troubles, he couldn't have asked for more. After letting out a long sigh, He returned to the courtyard with Zi Mu and Ying Xiao.
Huo Ying was still lying on the bamboo chair, while Sun Yingsheng stood beside her. When Chen Chu came in and called Huo Ying 'Eldest Senior Brother', everyone jumped in fright. Only Sun Yingsheng didn't look surprised at all. Clearly, he already knew about this.
Lu Ping and the rest naturally had a lot of questions to ask, but this time, it was Ying Xiao who casually stepped forward and spoke first.
"Eh? That guy called you Senior Brother, what's going on? You're about to be expelled, how can you still be his Senior Brother? Which academy are you from? "Ying Xiao shouted.
He didn't think that Huo Ying was from Alioth Peak, he only thought that he had an old relationship with Chen Chu, and that they were fellow disciples from the previous academy.
"Who's always quarreling!" But this time, Huo Ying and Sun Yingsheng didn't even speak. From the room to the right of Lu Ping's room, an angry shout came from it.
Ying Xiao was a loud voice. Ever since he came, the voices in the five courtyards had increased by quite a bit. And this fourth person of the five courtyards, according to Sun Yingsheng's words, had reversed day and night. He liked to sleep during the day and move at night, so he paid attention to the quietness of the day.
And this, was finally broken by Ying Xiao.
"It's me." Ying Xiao was still loudly answering.
"Come in." The person in the room said.
"Good!" Ying Xiao took big strides and walked to the room. He pushed the door open and entered.
Lu Ping and Zi Mu looked at each other. They looked at Huo Ying, who was still sleeping; they looked at Sun Yingsheng, who was also unmoved.
Very quickly, the sound of fighting came from the room. It went on for about ten seconds.
A naked person opened the door, raised his arm, and Ying Xiao was thrown out, rolling on the ground a few times. Lu Ping looked, Ying Xiao was actually tied up like a rice dumpling, and his mouth was stuffed with a piece of ragged cloth.
"Don't quarrel anymore." The person said. Before Lu Ping and Zi Mu could see his face clearly, the door was slammed again with a "bang".
After Ying Xiao rolled on the ground a few times, he finally propped himself up, and sat there in a daze.
But the rope that was tied up on his body was just an ordinary hemp rope, which was obviously not enough to restrain a cultivator. Ying Xiao was in the realm of the Three Spirits Linked.
Before Lu Ping and Zi Mu walked to his side, he had already used strength in his arms to break the hemp rope on his body, stood up, and took out the ragged cloth in his mouth.
He looked at Lu Ping and Zi Mu with a swollen face, and stretched out his hand to scratch his head. When he touched his wound, he only frowned slightly.
"What is this place again?" He asked Lu Ping and Zi Mu.
"Northern Mountain New Courtyard, Fifth Courtyard." Lu Ping answered.
"I know, but when I came, the introduction was not like this." Ying Xiao spoke slowly at this time, and his tone was very low. Obviously, the ten seconds in the room just now had left a deep impression on him.
"That was under normal circumstances." Zi Mu said.
"What about now?" Ying Xiao said.
"The current residents all moved in voluntarily, so it does not conform to the normal situation." Zi Mu said.
"Like me?" Ying Xiao said.
"His face is already swollen, and he still said others are like you?" Zi Mu thought in his heart, but did not say it out, and just nodded.
"This is really …" Ying Xiao scratched his head, and did not know what to say.
"If we were you, we would not waste time like this." At this time, Sun Yingsheng suddenly spoke to the three.
"The normal setting of the Fifth Courtyard is not a joke." He said.
"Understood." Lu Ping nodded.
But Zi Mu revealed a distressed expression.
After going through such a chaotic morning and afternoon, and receiving a large amount of new information, he almost forgot about this point.
But in reality? After so much had happened, their situation had not changed at all.
Twenty-five days, he and Lu Ping only had twenty-five days to fight for the opportunity to stay in the North Style Academy. But what could he do in these twenty-five days? If twenty-five days could let him break through the cocoon and be reborn, then why was he unable to make a breakthrough after so many years?
Relying on himself would not change anything. Even if he could pass the North Style Academy's newcomer's trial, he did not rely on himself. He was very clear about this point.
But now, Lu Ping's situation was even worse than his, even if Lu Ping appeared very calm.
Zi Mu's gaze finally fell on Sun Yingsheng and Huo Ying.
"You … … can you help us?" He hesitated, and finally opened his mouth, because this was the last chance in his heart.
Sun Yingsheng smiled.
"Helping you, maybe we can." He said, and then forgot to look at Lu Ping, "But helping him … …"
Sun Yingsheng shook his head, and then looked at Huo Ying.
Huo Ying, who had his eyes closed as if he was asleep, unexpectedly knew everything. Sun Yingsheng looked at him, and he immediately opened his mouth.
"What custom-made items do you have?" He asked.
