Wei Tianqi's heart was cold.
He had spared no effort, but the opponent in his eyes did not even look at him. Even when he stood in front of him, he did not recognize him. This kind of humiliation made him feel like a knife was being twisted in his heart. He wanted to throw himself at him and risk his life.
But this kind of impulse was quickly suppressed. From the moment he saw his father's corpse on the lonely peak behind Zhenfeng College, he was no longer the arrogant hedonistic youth of the past.
If risking his life was useful, would he still need to suffer so much?
Something like life was worthless in the face of absolute power. The so-called risking his life was just to die in peace.
Wei Tianqi did not want this. He had been influenced since he was young. In Xiabong Castellan, in the Wei family, the most important word was efficiency.
Everything had to be efficient.
Only the result, not the process.
Even if he had to risk his life, he had to complete the task. If it did not succeed, risking his life was just nonsense.
So right now, Lu Ping not recognizing him was actually a good thing.
If he did not recognize him, then he would be an insignificant passerby. Wouldn't his chances of survival be higher?
At the foot of the wall, Wei Tianqi slowly panted. He stared at the expression on Lu Ping's face. Seeing that he was still at a loss, he no longer felt that he was being looked down upon or humiliated. Instead, he began to rejoice.
But he still believed that Lu Ping had come to kill him. He was not sure if Lu Ping would remember something, so he did not expect that things would end like this. He paid attention to Lu Ping's expression and slowly stood up. While his body was still half bent, he suddenly swept to the side and turned around, entering the small house that he had rushed out of.
Without the slightest hesitation, he crawled towards the window on the cliff and directly jumped out, falling straight down the cliff.
In midair, he turned around and looked at the window above. Although it would be more advantageous for him if no one chased him, he still had a little hope in his heart. He hoped that Lu Ping would take him seriously and at least chase him to the window to take a look.
Here it comes!
A figure suddenly appeared from the window. Wei Tianqi hurriedly prepared himself, but soon, he saw clearly that the person looking down from the window was not Lu Ping, but the girl standing with him. Soon, her face became blurred in the wind and snow.
"He ran away." Leng Qing walked out of the house and said to Lu Ping.
"Oh." Lu Ping said.
"You still don't remember who it is?" Leng Qing asked Lu Ping.
"You don't know his name either?" Lu Ping asked the three.
"He also just arrived here today. Only Master Lu knows about it." The three of them said.
Lu Ping scratched his head. Unfortunately, Lu Zheng had been killed by him.
The sudden interlude did not disrupt Lu Ping's rhythm. He clearly did not take it to heart. Many of the youths who were released from the cells were still looking at him, but some had already begun to move out. Lu Ping did not intend to stay here any longer, so he followed the crowd and headed out. When those who were still watching saw him move, they finally began to move out.
The youths who had been imprisoned here were not good at communicating. They looked at Lu Ping anxiously. Even though they had doubts in their hearts, they did not know what to say.
The group quickly returned to the underground hall that Lu Ping and the others had walked through. The two who were instantly knocked down by Lu Ping were still lying there. Lu Ping pointed in the direction of the entrance and said, "Over there." Then he turned his gaze to the other two passageways.
"Are there only the five of you here?" Leng Qing asked the other three.
"Of course not." The three immediately answered. They were now abnormally obedient to Leng Qing.
Perhaps it was the noise brought by the crowd that finally attracted attention. From the two passageways on the right and center of the hall, people ran out in a hurry. When they saw the scene in front of them, they turned pale with fright. When they looked around, they saw the three of them and immediately questioned them.
"What's going on?"
"What's going on?"
The people who ran out from the two sides asked one after another. Before the three of them could answer, two of them had already collapsed. Lu Ping's attack was much faster than the three of them could answer.
"Are there still people locked up on these two sides?" Lu Ping asked.
"No." The three of them said with certainty.
"Where do these two sides lead to?" Leng Qing asked.
"This is the laboratory." One of them pointed to the center and said.
"This is the information office." Another pointed to the right passageway and said.
"Information office?" Leng Qing's eyes suddenly lit up. She was not as pure as Lu Ping. After discovering this place, she wanted to know as much as possible what these people were doing and what their goals were. The information office must have all kinds of records of these people and these things. It was undoubtedly the best place to satisfy her curiosity and find out the truth.
"You want to go?" Lu Ping saw Leng Qing's eagerness to go.
"What about you?" Leng Qing asked Lu Ping.
"I won't go. You take care of yourself." Lu Ping said.
"Hmph." Leng Qing sneered and walked to the right passageway without looking back. This place was obviously one of the most important of the four paths. But because of its importance, the defense here was tight on the outside but loose on the inside. The defense interception should have been completed long ago outside the cave. In the depths, there was no defense system, so Leng Qing was not worried at all.
Lu Ping watched her figure disappear into the passage on the right. Then he followed the crowd and moved toward the exit. The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do. But seeing that Lu Ping did not call out to them. The three of them stood motionless. In the end, they broke away from the crowd and were left hanging in the underground hall.
On the left was the empty prison cell. On the right was the important information office where someone had broken in. Beside them were their four fallen companions. The three of them looked at each other for a while and finally decided to do something. They first went to check if the four were dead or alive.
Of the four, two were dead and the other two were still breathing. This distribution of life and death was very casual. It showed that the attacker did not care — he just wanted to avoid trouble. As for the target's life and death, he did not care.
What should they do?
The three of them had this kind of exchange. Logically, they were not restrained at this time. They should quickly send out the information and then organize people to find the girl who had broken into the information office. But Lu Ping's strength had become their greatest fear. Whether Lu Ping was here or not, this influence could not be erased. That was the Six Spirits Connected. So what if they sent out the information? Who could stop him? Who could stop him from doing things? Lu Chenfeng?
They knew that a Lu Chenfeng had come to the valley, the famous Five Spirits Connected. But … so what? Now that the Six Spirits Connected were connected, even if all six strong people came. Based on the most common situation of the Four Spirits Connected beating the Three Spirits Connected, if all six people came together, they would just be beaten up as a group, right?
So … they had to be tactful …
"Aiya, I'm so dizzy …" One of them suddenly cried out. His eyes were full of treachery. After shouting, he suddenly fell down, his breath like gossamer.
"Oh, oh, oh …" Another person immediately understood and fell down as well.
"Help me a bit!" The last one was anxious. This kind of disguise also required a special ability. The other two knew it, but he didn't!
"So troublesome!" The second person had not completely fainted. At this time, he got up and poked the last person a few times.
"I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy …" The two of them cried out together and fell to the ground. The three of them knocked themselves out together.
In the passage to the outside.
Since Lu Ping was on the same side as everyone, it was just as he had said: If he could help them, he would help them. He walked to the very front and stopped everyone when they were about to reach the exit.
"I'll go take a look first," he said.
Everyone nodded silently. They could already see the light at the entrance. For them, that was a rare luxury. It was light and freedom that they did not even dare to think about.
And now, Lu Ping walked at the very front. His figure quickly entered that light. Everyone held their breath and stared, as if that figure would disappear if they did not pay attention.
Fortunately, this did not happen.
