"So it's Little Nine." Jin Qi laughed.
Little Nine was not a person, but Chen Jiu's Divine Weapon. Little Nine was Chen Jiu's nickname for it. The real name of the Divine Weapon was Nine-by-Nine. It was a rare Divine Weapon that could absorb the effects of digesting items.
This Divine Weapon looked like a flute, but it was not a common bamboo flute. It was a bone flute. It was said to be made from the wing bones of a carrion-eating eagle. It could not be played like a normal flute because it had no holes. There were six holes, but they were more like six mouths waiting to be fed, as if they could jump up and bite at any time.
Jin Qi had always suspected that the reason his teacher had given this Divine Weapon the nickname of "Little Nine" was to dispel the sense of terror it felt. Anyway, Jin Qi had always kept a respectful distance from this strange Divine Weapon and would never feel close to it.
However, after knowing that what had just left was the Divine Weapon Nine-in-One, Jin Qi immediately understood how Chen Jiu had used it. He had used a "Tendon-Changing Pill" that could change the appearance of the Nine-in-One and a "Creation Pill" that could replenish blood and flesh.
Nine-by-Nine was so magical. After the effects of these two pills took effect, it changed from a bone flute to a human shape.
What left was just the Nine-by-Nine.
Luring the snake out of its hole, the snake had appeared. After being blocked by Chen Jiu, the ordinary face did not show any expression. There was no surprise or fear.
This was a death soldier, ready to die at any time. So they did not care about any difficulties or strong enemies. Obtaining information from such a person was undoubtedly a very troublesome thing, and Chen Jiu was a person who was afraid of trouble.
He raised his hand, and the power of four spirits flashed out like snakes, instantly wrapping around the man's arms and legs. Following that, four streams of blood splashed out, and the tendons of the man's hands and feet were twisted. At the same time, Chen Jiu flicked his finger again, and a line of water shot straight at the man's mouth.
The man did not open his mouth, but this line of water shot out and directly pierced a hole in his mouth. Blood and the line of water that Chen Jiu shot went into his mouth.
"I don't know if there is poison in your mouth, but it won't be useful now." Chen Jiu said.
The man had already fallen to the ground, in an extremely miserable state. Chen Jiu did not have the slightest bit of pity. He stood to the side and made way for Jin Qi behind him.
"My stupidest student can prove that I am a very impatient person." Chen Jiu said, "So, can you tell me something?"
The newcomer was not afraid of death. But that didn't mean he didn't feel pain. At this moment, he was lying on the ground, trembling. His face was filled with pain, but he still didn't say a word.
"Alright." Chen Jiu waited for a few seconds. Seeing that the other party did not speak, he shook his head regretfully. "We don't have much time to waste here." As he spoke, he waved his hand again. The other party was dead. In the end, Chen Jiu still gave him a quick death.
Seeing that the other party was already dead, Jin Qi remarked regretfully, "We can hand him over to Merak Peak to ask about him …"
"No need," Chen Jiu said. "Just find someone from the Imperial Gate Courtyard to verify his identity. This can only be possible because he snuck into the academy beforehand, and he hasn't invaded the boundary of Megrez Peak yet. "
After saying that, Chen Jiu looked in the direction where the Divine Weapon ran.
"Can you still walk?" he asked Jin Qi.
Jin Qi had just been stabbed again. This time, he really couldn't hold on any longer. He barely managed to prop up half his body and sat on the ground, leaning against the big tree behind him, smiling bitterly as he shook his head.
"How troublesome!" As Chen Jiu spoke, he went forward to pick up Jin Qi. Soul power flowed in slowly, nurturing Jin Qi's injuries. At the same time, he was still berating, "A dignified head disciple is being carried by someone else, how can he be a leader?"
Jin Qi smiled. His current appearance was indeed somewhat embarrassing, but he didn't care about it. As long as the academy was fine, everyone was fine. So what if he was a little more embarrassed?
It was just that …
Jin Qi thought of Fallen Star, thought of Li Yaotian, Wang Xin, and other fellow disciples who had sacrificed themselves, and couldn't help but feel a little sad. But everyone was sacrificing themselves wave after wave. Wasn't it all to protect the academy, to protect fellow disciples? Thinking of this, Jin Qi couldn't help but feel excited again. When he was at the Seven Elements Disaster Relief hub, he saw Chen Chu's betrayal and insidiousness, and was very disappointed. But at the same time, there was Li Yaotian and Huo Ying by his side. They were all protecting the people around them with all their might. Even if they had to sacrifice themselves, they wouldn't hesitate. With such a teacher and senior apprentice brother, the North Style Academy would definitely be fine, definitely not!
While Jin Qi was being carried by Chen Jiu to investigate the obstruction that prevented him from sending messages, Huo Ying had already led a group of Yuheng disciples down the mountain.
"Senior apprentice brother, we haven't been able to contact him. The voice transmission seems to have been cut off by some means. "
Zhao Jin, who was following Huo Ying, said to Huo Ying. He couldn't contact Chen Chu previously. Later, when he found out that there was something wrong with Chen Chu, he naturally wanted to inform the other disciples. In the end, the message was like a stone sinking into the ocean, and there was no response after it was sent out.
If their ultimate goal was to destroy the Seven Elements Disaster Relief, they had already succeeded. Whether their identities were exposed or not was no longer important. But they still had to send messages. Didn't this mean that they still wanted to use the convenience of their identities to do something?
Calm down!
Don't lose your rationality because of revenge.
Teacher didn't just want to protect him. Yuheng Peak should be protecting the entire North Style Academy, and every fellow disciple in the academy.
Huo Ying kept reminding himself. He looked very calm and collected on the surface, but his mind was in a mess. He couldn't concentrate and think.
"Senior apprentice brother … …" Seeing that Huo Ying seemed to be distracted, Zhao Jin called out again.
Li Yaotian sacrificed himself, and Chen Chu rebelled. Yuheng Peak was like a group of dragons without a leader. Fortunately, Huo Ying appeared in time. Everyone naturally treated Huo Ying as their leader again.
At this moment, the Seven Star Order was released again, pointing in the direction of the Seven Star Tower in the Seven Star Valley.
Seven Star Tower?
Those distinguished guests who came to watch the Seven Star Trial were kept in the Seven Star Tower for protection. Among these people … …
A name immediately jumped into Huo Ying's mind.
Yan Ming, the first prince of the Green Peak Empire, Yan Ming, the first successor of the strongest empire in the continent.
And the one who set up the North Style Academy with Chen Chu was coincidentally Yan Ge. He was the famous second prince of the Green Peak Empire, the one who caused the whole court to talk about getting rid of the elder and replacing the younger. Although Yan Ge was quickly sent to the North Style Academy, these voices gradually died down. But what about Yan Ge himself? Was he willing? Did he have the ambition to fight for the throne?
Huo Ying was no stranger to Yan Ge. After all, he was once the first disciple of Yuheng Peak, and Yan Ge was a disciple of the same sect with a special identity and exceptional talent. In Huo Ying's interactions with Yan Ge, he never felt that Yan Ge was unperturbed. He seemed to be very easy-going.
However, even Chen Chu was wrong about him. What was so strange about Yan Ge being wrong about him?
As someone of the royal bloodline, it was completely reasonable for him to have this kind of ambition.
"Go to the Seven Star Tower." Huo Ying immediately said.
He had no interest in the fight for the throne. Yan Ming was also not someone from the North Style Academy. Although his death in the North Style Academy would attract some trouble, Huo Ying was still not very concerned about his safety.
He just didn't want Yan Ge and Chen Chu to have their way so easily. His intuition told him that the purpose of this scheme should not be so simple. If it was just for Yan Ming, destroying the Seven Elements Relief Great Order and attracting the attention of the three great academies was too much of a fuss. If it was just for Yan Ming, there would definitely be a better opportunity than him coming to the North Style Academy to watch the trial.
Yan Ming was only a part of their plan, a part that went with the flow.
There must be another purpose.
As Huo Ying thought of this, he quickly led the people of Yuheng Sect towards the Seven Star Valley.
And at this time, Yan Ge had already entered the Seven Star Tower and climbed up to the second highest floor. Looking at his big brother Yan Ming who was welcoming him with open arms, he smiled in a somewhat reserved manner.
Outside the Seven Star Tower, Chen Chu, who had lost an arm, stood in front of Principal Xu Mai with a face full of grief.
"It was Jin Qi. He colluded with some people from Yuheng Peak and the former first disciple, Huo Ying, to destroy the Seven Elements Relief Great Order. Teacher did it to protect me … …"
