Dark Academy.
This was not the first time Lu Ping had heard of this name. Every time someone mentioned it, they would express their deep hatred. But Lu Ping did not know what kind of crazy actions the Dark Academy had committed. Lu Ping did not care about this thing that he had never come into contact with before. Lu Ping did not think much of Bai Li's overbearing words. He only calmly reminded Bai Li, "You were the one who used Soul Severing."
Students who could recognize Soul Severing were usually from the Dark Academy. Then what about the one who used Soul Severing?
This logic was extremely simple, so simple that Bai Li was momentarily speechless.
He had not considered this simple logic at all. It was only because he was the head disciple of Mizar Peak of the North Style Academy, a high and mighty figure. Was it that rare for a powerhouse like him to know the Soul Severing ability? Did he have to associate it with the Dark Academy?
No one would think like that, but Lu Ping did, and he even pointed it out. He never had the concept of privileged people in his eyes.
"I know Soul Severing because I possess this ability." Bai Li said.
"I recognize Soul Severing because I know someone who possesses this ability." Lu Ping said.
Bai Li could not deny this possibility. Soul Severing was a fifth rank ability. Anyone who had reached the realm of linking up the three spirits would have the ability to use it. It was only forbidden to be used for training, but it was not a forbidden skill.
Bai Li stared at Lu Ping for a few seconds, finally prepared to give up on this topic. But he did not expect Lu Ping to question him instead.
"Can the North Style Academy be so irresponsible as to sever a student's spirit?"
Bai Li did not get angry from being questioned. Instead, he revealed a strange expression, "From your tone, could it be that you think Soul Severing can't be removed?"
"Is it not?" Lu Ping was startled. When Chu Min used Soul Severing to help them train, he formed this understanding. But now that he thought about it carefully, Chu Min did not seem to say that Soul Severing couldn't be removed … …
"Ridiculous." Bai Li said. He was not in the mood to teach Lu Ping such basic knowledge. He just found it harder and harder to understand this newcomer.
However, his curiosity towards Lu Ping was not the reason why he brought Lu Ping and Zi Mu away alone.
"Don't waste time. Tell me what happened when you were getting the medicine yesterday, "Bai Li said. As he spoke, he glanced at Zi Mu. Zi Mu, who had his Ming Soul severed by Zhan Soul, was initially in a state of panic. However, when he saw that Bai Li did not take any further action and was instead talking to Lu Ping, he suppressed his fear and maintained his composure. He was not stupid. He quickly realized that Bai Li didn't want him to hear their conversation, so he made this temporary arrangement.
Lu Ping also understood this point, so he was no longer worried about Zi Mu, and began to tell him what had happened the day before. Compared to the theft of the seven storehouses, this was a trivial matter. However, the whole incident had started from there, and Bai Li had only heard about it from Yan Ge. There was a detail that he was concerned about, and Lu Ping only said a few words before he reached this point.
"Wait a minute," Bai Li heard the crucial point and stopped him in time. Lu Ping stopped and looked at him.
"Why did you think of checking the medicine bags?" Bai Li asked.
Jin Qi had asked him this question after the lecture. Now that he was asked again, Lu Ping still gave the same answer.
"Because I was not sure if the medicine he prepared was the one on the prescription," Lu Ping said.
"You suspect Yan Ge?" Bai Li said.
"I'm just doing my duty," Lu Ping said.
Huo Ying asked him to get the medicine according to the prescription, so he wanted to check the medicine that Yan Ge prepared. Logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with what he did, but he was very serious. He was too serious, so serious that it was beyond what a normal person would do.
So in Lu Ping's eyes, this was his duty. But in other people's eyes, there must be something wrong with something abnormal.
Bai Li looked straight at Lu Ping, and after a few seconds, Lu Ping remained indifferent.
He should have called Chen Chu over. Bai Li realized that he could not see through Lu Ping's emotions and thoughts, and he thought to himself. But for now, he could only continue.
"Continue," Bai Li said.
So, Lu Ping went on with his story. He told them everything that had happened in front of him.
This time, Bai Li did not interrupt. He compared Yan Ge's and Lu Ping's narration in his heart, and did not find any conflict or suspicious points.
He nodded, and suddenly waved his left hand. A ray of light was drawn out of Zi Mu's body, and a shout, "Ah!", came out from Zi Mu's throat.
The Soul of Cry that Zi Mu was suffering from was removed, and Bai Li glanced at Lu Ping. Lu Ping scratched his head, and felt a little awkward.
In the end, Bai Li's hand turned, and the ray of light that was drawn out of Zi Mu's body flew straight towards Lu Ping.
Lu Ping knew his intention, and furthermore, he did not have the ability to dodge, so he did not move. The ray of light quickly entered Lu Ping's body. It did not hurt, nor did it itch. It just flowed around in Lu Ping's body, as if it was looking for something. But after a short while, this search came to an end.
"Tell me what happened yesterday when you got the medicine." Bai Li no longer cared about Lu Ping. He stared straight at Zi Mu, and started to ask the same question. In the end, before Zi Mu could speak, there was an extra sound from the side.
"Uh … should I leave for a while?" Lu Ping asked.
Both Zi Mu and Bai Li turned their heads at the same time, and they both had the same surprised expression. Regardless of whether it was a newbie or a top expert, they all felt the same at this moment.
"I don't have the power of a spirit, so I'm afraid the Soul Severing is useless against me," Lu Ping explained helplessly.
"Oh!" Zi Mu immediately understood. He had some knowledge, so even though he did not hear the conversation between Lu Ping and Bai Li, he could basically guess what type of ability it was. Seeing that the ability was ineffective against Lu Ping, he could not help but be surprised. But when he heard Lu Ping say the Soul Severing, he immediately understood.
But Bai Li's brows were tightly knitted together. His knowledge was naturally not as shallow as Zi Mu's. No power of a spirit? If he really did not have it, then it was called the Crippled Heavenly Bloodline. Otherwise, even if it was a normal person, it was just that they had not cultivated, so their power of a spirit was extremely weak, as if it did not exist.
Bai Li wanted to sever the Soul of Ming. Did Lu Ping have the Crippled Heavenly Bloodline of the Soul of Ming? Of course not!
Bai Li was not completely clueless about Lu Ping. That day when he was brought back to Mizar Peak by Guo Wu Shu, he had asked around. Although no one knew the specifics, Lu Ping's outstanding performance in the Soul of Ming had already been demonstrated. Regardless of whether it was good or bad, it was definitely not the Crippled Heavenly Bloodline of the Soul of Ming. Otherwise, Bai Li would not have used the Soul Severing to sever his Soul of Ming.
Furthermore, after Lu Ping had drawn the stars into his life, he had lost the power of a spirit. Bai Li also knew this, but he did not expect that the power of a spirit would not be as complete as the Crippled Heavenly Bloodline.
"What's with your power of a spirit?" Bai Li asked.
