Two days passed in the blink of an eye. The North Style Academy continued to be shrouded in a tense atmosphere. No one from the Northern Mountains New Courtyard had the qualifications to intervene in such a big matter. But even in this area, there would be students from different peaks and academies passing by hurriedly from time to time. Even the mysterious Mizar Peak Enforcer had been seen by the students from the Northern Mountains New Courtyard who were at the bottom of the North Style Academy.
Seeing the newcomers from the same batch, even the outstanding Lin Tianbiao could only discuss this matter with everyone, Zi Mu could not help but feel proud in his heart. He, together with Lu Ping, had obtained the trust of Chen Jiu, the Megrez Star. He was the person who had the important role in this matter!
Thinking of this, Zi Mu felt glad for his decision. He was glad that he had grasped the opportunity at the crucial moment.
In two days, the hand-drawn map of the Cloud Clamped Valley had almost been worn out by him. Zi Mu had done the right thing. The image ability that Chen Jiu had left in his and Lu Ping's minds had a time limit. Not long after Zi Mu had drawn the map, both disappeared. Fortunately, the map had been drawn and the appearance of the "Trustworthy" herb had been memorized.
In the early morning of the third day, Zi Mu tossed and turned on his bed, unable to sleep. He and Lu Ping had agreed to take action two days later. Now it was already two days later, but they had not agreed on the specific time to take action.
It would be easier to avoid detection at night than during the day, right?
That was what Zi Mu thought. After tossing and turning on his bed, he finally could not bear it anymore. He got up and dressed neatly. He tiptoed to open the door and wanted to find Lu Ping. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a pair of bright eyes staring at him from the pitch black courtyard.
Oh no!
Zi Mu realized that he had been careless. He had actually forgotten about this night owl in the fifth courtyard. During the day, he would always hide in his room and sleep. In the dead of the night, he would start busying himself with something. Until now, Lu Ping and Zi Mu had only seen this person on the day when Ying Xiao came. To be able to deal with Ying Xiao so easily, this person's strength was evident. Later on, he heard from the other three that this person was called Han Li. Because of his eccentricity, he stayed in the fifth courtyard. Also because of this eccentricity, he was not familiar with the other three. After all, there were very few opportunities for them to meet each other.
Right now, Zi Mu wanted to look for Lu Ping to carry out his plan. In the end, he bumped into Lu Ping and his heartbeat quickened. At this time, he would look for Lu Ping or immediately retreat to his room. It was inevitable that people would be suspicious. Zi Mu was rather quick-witted. He tried his best to walk out of the room calmly. Looking at the shining eyes, he did not care if the other party could see them clearly. He squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm going to pee."
As he said this, he walked in the direction of the toilet. Unexpectedly, the figure in the middle of the courtyard said, "Your heart is beating very fast."
Tong tong tong …
Zi Mu's heartbeat immediately quickened. He knew that this person was an almighty expert in the aspect of the soul of sound. At this distance, he could even hear his own heartbeat clearly. It was rumored that at this level, one could even hear the movement of joints, the contraction of muscles, and the flow of blood to determine the target's movements. The ability was called "Guanyin Listening", and it was an enhancement type. It was the super enhancement of the hearing ability. As for Lu Ping's "Soul Listening". Being able to hear the movement of soul power was actually not an enhancement of hearing. This was because soul power itself did not have a true sense of sound. Soul Listening used sound to transform it into information. It was a manifestation of perception. "Soul Listening" was in fact more in line with the characteristics of perception type abilities.
Regarding his heartbeat, Zi Mu had no way of controlling it or explaining it. He could only act nonchalantly and say, "Is that so?" and quickly slipped into the toilet. When he thought of how strong the other party's hearing was, he could only do his best to pee.
Then he returned to the courtyard. He saw that Han Li was still in the courtyard. His figure moved slowly in the darkness, as if he was doing some kind of cultivation. Zi Mu did not dare to look any longer and quickly returned to his own room. When he thought of how it would be difficult to move quietly at night without being detected because of Han Li's presence, he could not help but feel anxious. He wanted to find Lu Ping to discuss it, but he was afraid that Han Li would overthink. He did not even dare to lean over the window to peek at Han Li's movements. The other party was so powerful, who knew whether or not he would notice that something was wrong?
After tossing and turning for an entire night, at daybreak, Zi Mu heard the sound of the door next door. Han Li seemed to have returned to his own room. Then, he heard the sound of the door next door. It seemed that Lu Ping had walked out of his room.
Dang dang dang.
Then, someone knocked on Zi Mu's door.
"Coming." Zi Mu got up and went to open the door. Lu Ping stood outside. When he saw Zi Mu's dispirited state, he frowned slightly.
"Did not sleep well?" Lu Ping asked.
"Yes." Zi Mu replied. Actually, not only did he not sleep well, he practically did not sleep at all!
But immediately after, he pulled Lu Ping far away. Han Li, who was next door, had also just returned to his room. He might not have fallen asleep yet. That fellow's hearing was so terrifying. If he wanted to, he could easily hear the conversation between him and Lu Ping.
Lu Ping was a little confused, but he cooperated with Zi Mu and was dragged out of the courtyard. Zi Mu turned his head to take a look. He still felt uneasy and dragged Lu Ping further away. When he turned his head to take a look, his expression relaxed slightly.
"What is it?" Lu Ping asked.
"That Han Li's soul cry is especially powerful. He might be able to hear our conversation." Zi Mu said.
"So it's like that." Lu Ping nodded his head.
"What do we do now? That fellow doesn't even sleep at night. If we want to take action at night, it will be hard to avoid his eyes and ears. "Zi Mu said.
"Then we can only take action during the day." Lu Ping was rather straightforward.
"During the day … … Wouldn't it be easy to be noticed during the day?" Zi Mu said.
"Actually, with North Style Academy's current state, it might not be a good choice to take action at night." Lu Ping said.
Zi Mu thought for a moment and felt that it was somewhat reasonable.
"Then let's go during the day and pretend that nothing happened." Zi Mu suggested.
Lu Ping nodded his head.
"Now?" Zi Mu asked.
"We still have to wait." Lu Ping said.
"Why?"
"You haven't eaten breakfast and haven't fed the rabbit. Also … …" Lu Ping glanced at Zi Mu, "Have you washed your face?"
"I … …" Zi Mu was a little speechless. The two of them were going to do something big! It might even be a big matter that could rescue the entire North Style Academy from a crisis. At this time, would he still care about these trivial matters?
However, Lu Ping's tone was rather serious, serious to the point that Zi Mu couldn't refuse.
"Alright, I'll go wash my face." Zi Mu compromised and returned to the courtyard to wash up. When he went to find Lu Ping, Lu Ping was hugging his rabbit and waiting for him. Zi Mu had no choice but to carry his rabbit and follow Lu Ping to the dining hall.
Everything was the same as usual. After eating breakfast and feeding the rabbit, on the way back, Zi Mu had an epiphany.
"That's right! We have to act as usual so that we won't be noticed by others. So you already thought of this. "Zi Mu sighed with emotion.
"You're thinking too much." Lu Ping glanced at Zi Mu and disapprovingly said. After returning to the fifth courtyard and settling down the rabbit, he went to find Zi Mu. However, he also remembered that Han Liming's soul was astonishing and could possibly hear the two of them. He only silently gave Zi Mu a meaningful glance.
This time, they were really going to take action.
Zi Mu's heartbeat sped up again.
