Many gazes landed on Ba Li Yan, who was lying on his back in the snow.
Where am I? What am I doing?
Ba Li Yan straightened his body and looked around. It was empty, causing him to be a little stunned.
In his haze, he felt as though a figure had appeared in front of him and said something to him, but he couldn't remember anything.
What was going on? Ba Li Yan looked down and saw the frozen kettle on the ground.
Oh, the kettle fell here. He bent down again, and this time, the frozen kettle didn't obstruct him at all. He easily picked it up.
Ba Li Yan turned around and walked towards the gathering place of the Canyon Peak Academy. There was a stove, a fire, boiling water, and cooking. This was what the Canyon Peak Academy, which was at the bottom of the rankings, assigned to them in such a large gathering. But Ba Li Yan was still their dean. The moment he walked over, someone immediately came to greet him.
"Dean." Someone took the kettle from him, while the others looked at him with curiosity and anticipation.
"What's wrong?" Ba Li Yan was puzzled.
"What did you talk about with Black Tortoise's dean?" someone asked.
"Black Tortoise's dean?" Ba Li Yan was stunned.
"That's right, you guys seemed to be chatting happily just now."
"I … talked to Black Tortoise's dean?" Ba Li Yan continued to stare blankly.
Everyone looked at each other.
"What's wrong?" someone asked cautiously.
"I …" Ba Li Yan looked back. The snow was thick, and many people's figures were blurry. However, one of them attracted Ba Li Yan's attention for no reason. In that instant, the conversation with Black Tortoise Qiansu, as well as the identity of Black Tortoise Qiansu, appeared in his mind.
Crack!
The kettle that had been taken away shattered at this moment, giving everyone a fright.
"What happened?" Ba Li Yan asked.
"This … I don't know." The Canyon Peak Academy disciple, who only had a kettle left, didn't know what to do.
"Alright, go back to your work." Ba Li Yan waved his hand.
No one said anything else and dispersed. Ba Liyan turned his head again and looked at the blurry figures. This time, he did not have the same feeling as before.
Although Ba Li Yan's cultivation level was not outstanding and the academy he ran was not good, he was still the dean of one of the four hundred academies on the continent. His knowledge was far more outstanding than most people.
He thought about the conversation he had with the Black Tortoise, and then thought about the temporary amnesia.
This should be a hint to him to pretend that nothing had happened, otherwise … Ba Liyan looked down at the broken pieces of the kettle on the ground.
Was this how he would end up?
Ba Li Yan was terrified. He didn't know what was at stake in the conversation between the two of them, but since it was a hint from such an important person, he could only obey.
But … what if it was just a prank? Ba Li Yan suddenly thought of this. After all, back when he represented Zhenfeng College, he had competed with Canyon Peak Academy. Although there was no deep hatred between them, it was not a pleasant experience. After so many years, it was harmless to use such a small trick to prank the other party as revenge.
However, after thinking about it, Ba Li Yan immediately wanted to slap himself.
What prank? That was the dean of the Black Tortoise Academy. Did he think he was a wild child from Zhenfeng College? It was disrespectful to have such a thought.
With this thought, Ba Li Yan once again looked respectfully at the figures. He didn't know if Qian Su understood his attitude, so he obediently continued to boil water.
Ba Li Yan didn't know that after thinking so much, Qian Su had long stopped paying attention to him. Not long after disappearing from Ba Li Yan's sight, she received a message from Xu Chuan. They had successfully locked onto the whereabouts of the Divine Martial Seal.
"Good." Qian Su's response was concise. She only confirmed that she had received the message and didn't need to give any instructions.
She took out a piece of paper from her bosom. This was the information Black Tortoise Academy had collected for Lu Ping. When Qian Su first received it, she noticed the words "Zhenfeng College" at first glance. To be honest, she was quite shocked. Old Guo was really good at training disciples. After her, there was actually such a fierce person.
Later on in the Merry Forest, she saw this Lu Ping with her own eyes. To Zhenfeng College, they were fellow students. However, from the standpoint of Black Tortoise Academy, this person had killed three of the seven constellations of Black Tortoise. Among them, Wall Constellation was her teacher at Black Tortoise Academy, so they made an exception to take him in and nurture him carefully. If it wasn't for the support of the high and mighty Wall Constellation, even if Qian Su's strength was convincing, it wouldn't be so easy for her to become the leader of Black Tortoise Academy in such a short time. Moreover, the Divine Martial Seal, Black Tortoise Academy's ultimate treasure, was also seized by Lu Ping. Their relationship with Black Tortoise Academy was already a dead end.
"What a troublesome brat …" Qian Su sighed inwardly. She strode towards the direction of North Style Academy's camp. However, she didn't look for North Style Academy's Dean Xu Mai. Instead, she walked towards the foot of the icy peak, towards the North Style Academy's group who were studying the custom-made equipment.
"Dean Qian Su?" Seeing this important person's arrival, Huo Ying was a little puzzled. However, she still had no choice but to stand up and welcome him.
"Go about your business." Qian Su waved her hand at the other Alioth Peak disciples who were looking at her. However, when her gaze swept past one of them, she suddenly stopped. She was greatly shocked.
"Realm of Perception?" Qian Su was astonished. It would be difficult for someone who hadn't even reached the Connecting realm to pass the North Style Academy's newcomer training. Not to mention appearing in this kind of elite gathering operation.
"I'm almost at the Connecting realm …" Zi Mu lowered his head and said with a red face.
"Then I have to congratulate you." Qian Su said.
Relying on the "Crane Among Chickens" Realm of Perception, Zi Mu received the Black Tortoise Dean's cordial greeting. However, no one would envy this treatment. Everyone looked on coldly. Even the Black Tortoise Dean and the Alioth Peak disciples didn't conceal their hostility. On the contrary, they were very dissatisfied with Zi Mu's yes-man attitude. A few of them even glared at Zi Mu.
"No need for the Dean to worry." Zi Mu immediately straightened his back and replied to the Black Tortoise Dean loudly with the Realm of Perception. Immediately, he attracted a lot of praising gazes.
"I'm very curious about what makes him so outstanding that he brought the Realm of Perception here." Qian Su said and looked at Huo Ying.
"Could it be that the Dean specially came for this?" Huo Ying avoided answering.
"What about Lu Ping?" Qian Su suddenly changed the question.
This jump was abrupt and illogical. Everyone was stunned. Huo Ying also hesitated for a moment before saying: "I don't understand why the Dean suddenly asked me this? How would I know? "
"Then let me change the question. Is Lu Ping a member of the Big Dipper?" Qian Su said.
"Of course he is." Huo Ying answered as expected. However, due to the strictness he had developed under Li Yaotian's teachings, he immediately added: "For the Big Dipper."
"Hehe." Qian Su seemed to have heard the hidden meaning behind his words. She laughed and then said: "I have an idea now."
"What?" Huo Ying was puzzled. He didn't know what Qian Su was trying to sell.
"Lu Ping and my Black Tortoise have a deep hatred. I'm sure everyone knows about this." Qian Su said.
In response to her was a cold snort. There was even a "serves you right."
"No matter how tyrannical Lu Ping's strength is, my Black Tortoise has no way out of this matter." Qian Su acted as if she didn't hear it and continued.
"So?" Huo Ying asked.
"So I have an idea." Qian Su said.
Everyone gritted their teeth and tried very hard to hold back the words "Hurry up and fart."
"That day." Qian Su's gaze swept across everyone again. "The Big Dipper once said that we will temporarily deposit the forty-three heads. In the future, we will get them all back. Out of these forty-three heads, my Black Tortoise has taken twelve. Please let go of these twelve Black Tortoise heads and take them all as compensation for Lu Ping. Everyone will live in peace. How about it? "
