The group soon arrived at the south gate of the Xing Wu Academy.
"City Lord … Patriarch Fan, why are you here?" Seeing the two of them arrive uninvited, the Xing Wu Academy's disciples who were guarding the gate were naturally surprised.
"Quick, bring us to see your dean. We have something important to discuss!" The City Lord said in a deep voice.
"Follow me." A disciple immediately led the two of them in.
The other disciple quickly ran into the academy. He was naturally going to report to the dean of the Xing Wu Academy.
Soon, the two of them were brought into the main hall.
Not long after, Dean Teng quickly walked into the main hall.
"City Lord, Patriarch Fan, what's the matter?" Dean Teng asked as soon as he walked in. He knew that something big must have happened for the two of them to come at the same time.
"Dean Teng, the Lei Family was massacred. Everyone, including the Lei Family's patriarch, Lei Peng, was killed," Fan Shenglin said with a pained expression.
"What?" Dean Teng was immediately shocked when he heard Fan Shenglin's words.
After a moment of shock, he immediately said coldly, "Who is so daring to do such a thing in the Xing Wu City?"
"Dean, we don't know who did it for now, but we know that this matter is closely related to your academy's disciple, Lin Li. There's a high chance that it was done by the person behind Lin Li," the City Lord said.
"Lin Li?" Dean Teng was stunned for a moment before he remembered who it was.
Of course, he remembered Lin Long because of the incident during the trial. Otherwise, he wouldn't know who Lin Long was.
"It's him … The Lei Family's patriarch brought so many people here because of the death of one of his sons. His son's insanity is related to Lin Li, so Lin Li is very suspicious," the City Lord said immediately.
"Today, the Lei Family's people found out that Lin Li left the Xing Wu Academy and sent people to chase after him. Then, we found out that all the people from the Lei Family were killed. Then, Lei Peng and the others were killed. So, this matter is definitely related to Lin Li," Fan Shenglin said.
"However, do you have any evidence?" Dean Teng couldn't help but ask.
Fan Shenglin shook his head. "We don't have any evidence, but this is evidence. Of course, this shouldn't be done by Lin Li, but by someone related to him."
"So, we plan to capture Lin Li first, and then use him to lure out the people behind him. What do you think, Dean?" the castellan asked.
"Of course, if we find out that this matter has nothing to do with Lin Li, we will let him go immediately," Fan Shenglin added.
"Since that's the case, you can bring Lin Li there. However, I have to remind you that Lin Li is still a disciple of the Xing Wu Academy. Without concrete evidence, you can't use private punishment on him!" Dean Teng said with a serious expression.
The other party was right. Linlong was indeed closely related to this matter. In addition, Principal Teng felt that Linlong was just a nobody and would not affect the Xing Wu Academy at all. Therefore, he naturally agreed to the other party's request.
Seeing that Principal Teng had agreed, the City Lord's face immediately revealed a trace of joy. He immediately said, "Principal Teng, don't worry. We won't use private punishment on him."
Then, Principal Teng brought Fan Shenglin, the City Lord, and the others to the house where the male disciples of the Xing Wu Academy stayed.
Under the guidance of the old man who was in charge of this house, they walked straight to Linlong's room.
Not long after, they arrived outside Linlong's room.
"Lin Li, are you inside? The Dean is looking for you! "The old man knocked on Linlong's door.
Then, the door opened, revealing Linlong's figure.
Seeing that Linlong was really here, a smile appeared on Fan Shenglin's face.
Linlong looked around and saw Principal Teng, Fan Shenglin, and the others. He immediately said, "Dean, what's the matter?"
"The Lei Family's Patriarch, Lei Peng, and his family were just killed. The City Lord and Patriarch Fan suspect that this matter is related to you, so you should go with them … Don't worry, if there's nothing else, they won't make things difficult for you," Principal Teng said.
"That's good." Linlong nodded.
After saying that, Linlong walked out.
Linlong knew that if he didn't agree, he would definitely fight with these people in front of him. It was not wise to do that in the Xing Wu Academy, and even if he fought, he would be at a great disadvantage. Therefore, he might as well surrender.
Of course, even if he was caught, he was confident that he could escape, so he wasn't worried.
Seeing that Linlong agreed and walked out, the City Lord immediately signaled his two subordinates to walk forward.
After walking to Linlong's side, one of the two men said, "Lin Li, please cooperate and hand over the things on you."
Linlong handed over his Space Stone as instructed.
After receiving the Space Stone, the two men searched it carefully, and only after confirming that Linlong didn't have any Energy Pills on him or in his mouth were they relieved.
Because without the Energy Pill, Linlong was equivalent to an ordinary person, and he posed no threat to them.
After that, Fan Shenglin and the City Lord brought him out of the Xing Wu Academy.
Throughout the entire process, there were already many Xing Wu Academy disciples surrounding them. Therefore, the news of Linlong being taken away quickly spread throughout the Xing Wu Academy.
After all, Fan Shenglin and the City Lord had personally come to the Xing Wu Academy to arrest someone.
"Heavens, who has such an honor to actually make Patriarch Fan and the City Lord personally come to arrest someone?"
"It's that new disciple, Lin Li!"
"I've long felt that he was a troublemaker, and indeed … But, what did he do?"
"The Lei Family's Patriarch, Lei Peng, and his subordinates were just killed by someone. I suspect that it has something to do with him."
"It can't be. The Lei Family's Patriarch, Lei Peng, is a martial artist above the middle stage of level 3. How can Lin Li be so powerful?"
"It's definitely not him who has such strength. It must be the person behind him."
…
Zhao Yaxuan, who had just returned to her boudoir, quickly heard about this matter.
"What? Junior Brother Lin was arrested? Or did the City Lord and Patriarch Fan personally come to the academy to arrest him? "Zhao Yaxuan was naturally stunned when she heard this.
No, I have to think of a way to rescue Junior Brother Lin immediately. Otherwise, Fan Shenglin and the others will definitely kill him! This thought flashed through Zhao Yaxuan's mind.
After having that kind of relationship with Lin Long, she naturally knew some things about him. She knew about the grievances between Lin Long, the Fan Family, and the Lei Family.
Under such circumstances, she naturally felt that the Fan Family would not let go of such an opportunity. After all, Fan Shenglin's son might have been killed by Lin Long.
However, the Fan Family and the City Lord are too powerful. It is impossible for me to save Junior Brother Lin alone. Zhao Yaxuan's face turned gloomy when she thought about this.
I can only look for my master. After thinking for a while, she finally made up her mind.
After a while, she met her master.
Her master's name was Tao Qianqing. Like Guo Xiaoxiao's master, she was also a middle-aged beautiful woman. She was also an elder of Xing Wu Academy.
"Yaxuan, it's so late. Why are you looking for me?" Tao Qianqing was a little surprised.
"Master, disciple has a matter to ask for your help." Zhao Yaxuan gritted her teeth.
"Speak, what is it?" Tao Qianqing said.
"It's like this. Disciple has a close friend who was captured by the City Lord and the Fan Family. Disciple wants to save him, but disciple's strength is limited. After thinking about it, disciple can only look for master," Zhao Yaxuan said.
"What kind of close friend is worth doing this for? Could it be Ye Xiuwen? "Tao Qianqing frowned.
Although Ye Xiuwen was dead, the people of Xing Wu Academy had not found out.
"No, it's another disciple. His name is Lin Li." Zhao Yaxuan said.
"Lin Li? That new disciple? "Tao Qianqing was surprised again.
"Yes." Zhao Yaxuan nodded.
"As far as I know, Lin Li came from Fengan Village which is far away from here. You have no contact with Fengan Village at all. Why would he be related to you?" Tao Qianqing was puzzled.
She could not understand why Zhao Yaxuan would help Lin Long. After all, it was not a small matter to save someone from the hands of the City Lord and Fan Shenglin.
Even she did not dare to have such thoughts.
"Disciple …" Zhao Yaxuan did not know what to say.
"Yaxuan, don't bother with ordinary people. You have to know that if you want to save someone from the hands of the City Lord and Fan Shenglin, you have to take a huge risk," Tao Qianqing said.
Zhao Yaxuan knew that she had to tell the truth. She immediately said, "Master, disciple actually had a physical relationship with him. Disciple and he are cultivation partners."
"What … … You … … You're his cultivation partner?" Tao Qianqing was so shocked that he stood up from his chair.
"How is that possible? Isn't your cultivation partner Ye Xiuwen? Although he has not had any relationship with you because of certain matters … "Tao Qianqing stared at Zhao Yaxuan with wide eyes.
She could not understand why Zhao Yaxuan would give up Ye Xiuwen and choose Lin Long. Although Lin Long had caused a lot of trouble, he was only a rank one warrior. There was a world of difference between him and the talented Ye Xiuwen.
She, who loved Zhao Yaxuan, naturally did not want Zhao Yaxuan to make such a choice.
"Master, you know that disciple has an innate intuition about cultivation partners. Disciple feels that Junior Brother Lin is the one, so I chose Junior Brother Lin." Zhao Yaxuan raised her head and looked at Tao Qianqing.
Tao Qianqing frowned and said to Zhao Yaxuan, "Let me see your Chastity Cinnabar."
Zhao Yaxuan immediately took off her clothes.
Seeing that Zhao Yaxuan's Chastity Cinnabar had disappeared, Tao Qianqing could not help but sigh, "Forget it, forget it."
"Master, please save Junior Brother Lin. If you don't save him, Junior Brother Lin will definitely be killed or crippled by Fan Shenglin." Zhao Yaxuan knelt down and hugged Tao Qianqing's leg.
Tao Qianqing shook her head, "Yaxuan, even if I want to save him, I am powerless. The Fan Family and the City Lord's forces are simply colossal to me."
Hearing Tao Qianqing's words, Zhao Yaxuan immediately had a look of disappointment on her face. She then stood up and said, "Since that's the case, disciple will go by myself."
"No," Tao Qianqing said directly.
In her opinion, if Zhao Yaxuan went, it would be no different from courting death.
Zhao Yaxuan paid no attention to him and continued to walk towards the exit. Tao Qianqing couldn't help shaking her head. Her figure flashed and blocked Zhao Yaxuan's path. After that, she slapped her palm towards Zhao Yaxuan.
Zhao Yaxuan did not expect her master to make a move and immediately fell to the ground.
After retrieving all of Zhao Yaxuan's belongings, Tao Qianqing carried Zhao Yaxuan to her bed.
"Yaxuan, Master is doing this for your own good." Looking at Zhao Yaxuan on the bed, Tao Qianqing sighed.
At this moment, in another room, a female disciple was also talking to a middle-aged beauty.
That female disciple was none other than Guo Xiaoxiao, and the middle-aged beauty in front of her was her master, Yao Xue.
"Master, Junior Brother Lin has been captured by the Fan Family and the City Lord. I hope that you can save him," said Guo Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao, what relationship does that Lin Li have with you? Is he worth your master taking such a huge risk?" Yao Xue asked curiously.
Knowing that Yao Xue would definitely not help her if she didn't tell her, Guo Xiaoxiao said, "Master, actually, the one who had a physical relationship with me was not Xie Cheng, but Junior Brother Lin Li."
"What?" Yao Xue jumped up from her chair in shock after hearing Guo Xiaoxiao's words.
After calming down, Yao Xue hurriedly asked, "What exactly happened?"
"This is what happened. That day when I went out with Xie Cheng, Xie Cheng secretly poisoned me with the Ten Fragrances Ecstasy. After being poisoned, I felt weak all over, and my consciousness became blurry. However, when I woke up, I realized that the one who had a physical relationship with me was not Xie Cheng, but Junior Brother Lin Li," said Guo Xiaoxiao.
"Could it be that Lin Li killed Xie Cheng?" Yao Xue couldn't help but ask.
"That I don't know. Because I was too ashamed and resentful, I forgot to ask what happened and left in the end." Guo Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"Since you had a physical relationship with Lin Li because of the Ten Fragrances Ecstasy, and not because of your own will, why do you still want to save him?" Yao Xue couldn't help but ask after hearing Guo Xiaoxiao's words.
"This …" Guo Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment before she said, "I also don't know. After all … I just don't want anything to happen to him now … As long as Master saves him, I will definitely forget about him."
"Is that so? Then I'm sorry, Master can't help you." Yao Xue shook her head.
"Master!" Seeing that Yao Xue rejected her, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but anxiously call out.
"Xiaoxiao, the Fan Family and the City Lord's Mansion are powerful. How can your master deal with them?" Yao Xue couldn't help but sigh.
"Master, since that's the case, then he is fated to face this calamity … Master, I'll take my leave." Guo Xiaoxiao said as she walked out.
Yao Xue, who was worried, followed her out. When she saw that Guo Xiaoxiao had returned to her residence and didn't come out for a long time, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, she walked back. She didn't know that Guo Xiaoxiao's door was already open when she walked back.
"Master, you don't know that my Spiritual Force has become stronger recently." Guo Xiaoxiao muttered to herself as she walked out of the Xing Wu Academy.
Since Yao Xue didn't agree, she could only go by herself.
