Suspicions
"If I say no, then no. If you continue to be obstinate, I will … Who?"
How could Dongfang Zhi allow Lu Wei to do as she pleased?
With Lu Wei's Xiantian cultivation, she probably wouldn't even be able to enter Snow Domain Pavilion's main entrance, let alone save her parents.
However, before Dongfang Zhi could finish his sentence, he heard knocking on the door.
"Dean Dongfang, it's me, Yan Hui."
A familiar voice came from outside the door.
"What's the matter?"
Dongfang Zhi was a little puzzled.
He had already ordered that without his permission, no one was allowed to approach his residence.
Where did Yan Hui get the guts to actually dare to disobey him?
"Ning Yue is back." Outside the door, Yan Hui said respectfully, "He wants to see Lu Wei."
"He's back …"
Dongfang Zhi frowned and glanced at Lu Wei. Then, he said in a clear voice, "Let him in."
"Dean Dongfang, Ning Yue wants me to bring Lu Wei over," Yan Hui said while gritting his teeth.
"What?"
Dongfang Zhi's mouth was slightly agape. He couldn't believe what he had just heard.
Ning Yue had only left Danwu College for a short period of time, and he had already become so arrogant?
He had to kill Ning Yue's arrogance. Otherwise, he would only be cannon fodder in the Hundred Academy Tournament!
"Dean Dongfang, Ning Yue was' invited 'to the Dan Wu Pool by the Xuanming Elders the moment he entered Danwu College," Yan Hui hurriedly said, not daring to be negligent.
Recalling the scene back then, Yan Hui was also confused.
At that time, he was just about to leave Danwu College. Who would have thought that he would bump into Ning Yue at the entrance?
Just when he wanted to greet Ning Yue, the Xuanming Elders suddenly appeared. Without any explanation, they held Ning Yue on both sides, saying that they wanted to bring Ning Yue to the Dan Wu Pool.
Ning Yue tried his best to buy some time. He instructed him to invite Lu Wei to the Dan Wu Pool as he had something important to tell Lu Wei.
As a matter of fact, Yan Hui's own matters had also fallen behind, and he hurriedly ran to Dongfang Zhi's place.
"Dan Wu Pond again?"
Dongfang Zhi's heart tightened for no reason. Then, he said without batting an eyelid, "Lu Wei is here. Whether she wants to go to the Danwu Pool or not, it's not up to me."
Creak!
Dongfang Zhi opened the door and walked out. He said to Yan Hui, "Whether she's willing to go to the Dan Martial Pool with you or not, it's all up to you."
"Thank you, Dean Dongfang."
Yan Hui revealed a joyful expression and hurriedly entered the room.
"With Lu Wei's stubborn temper, I reckon … what?" Dongfang Zhi was almost certain that at this critical juncture, Lu Wei definitely wouldn't go and meet Ning Yue.
However, before Dongfang Zhi's voice faded, his mouth opened slightly, revealing a look of disbelief.
Because he saw that Lu Wei actually left the room with Yan Hui.
Furthermore, Lu Wei's expression seemed to be very anxious.
Until Yan Hui and Lu Wei disappeared from his sight, Dongfang Zhi still felt very confused.
Didn't Lu Wei know that after meeting Ning Yue, Ning Yue definitely wouldn't let her return to Snow Domain Pavilion?
"Yan Hui, Ning Yue really has a way to save my parents?"
On the way to the Dan Martial Pool, Lu Wei urged Yan Hui while asking, "You can't lie to me. You need to know the consequences of lying to me."
"When you see Ning Yue later, you'll naturally understand. Actually, I don't know much either."
Yan Hui felt a headache from Lu Wei's incessant questioning.
To put it bluntly, he was only a messenger. Ning Yue didn't tell him the specifics.
Yan Hui definitely didn't believe that Ning Yue had the ability to save Lu Wei's parents. His thoughts were similar to Dongfang Zhi's. He thought that Ning Yue called Lu Wei over to trap her and ensure that she wouldn't run around tomorrow.
Dongfang Zhi's residence wasn't too far from the Dan Martial Pool. Not long later, Yan Hui and Lu Wei stopped in front of a stone door.
"Little girl, stay."
In front of the stone door, Elder Xuan waved his hand at Yan Hui and said, "You can scram now."
"Eh …"
Yan Hui was a little embarrassed, but he still chose to leave tactfully.
After Yan Hui left, Elder Xuan stared at Lu Suan for a while and said with a frown, "You're at the Xiantian stage and your soul power is at the second grade. There's nothing special about you. Why does Ningyue value you so much?"
As he spoke, Elder Xuan shook his head. He grabbed Lu Wei's shoulder and dashed through the stone door.
"Senior, we … where are we going? Where's Ning Yue …? "
Elder Xuan's speed was very fast, causing Lu Wei to be unable to speak clearly.
"You'll know in a while."
Elder Xuan didn't slow down but increased his speed instead.
After a while, Elder Xuan stopped in front of a secret room.
"Old man Ming, where's Ning Yue?"
Looking at the familiar figure in front of the secret room, Elder Xuan asked doubtfully, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me here? Could it be that Ning Yue entered the secret room?"
"Just now, the Dean sent a message for Ning Yue to go in first." Elder Ming glanced at Lu Wei and said, "But the Dean personally instructed us to help Lu Wei increase her strength."
"He wants us to help her increase her strength?"
Elder Xuan couldn't believe his ears. Who was the Dean? He actually cared about a little girl at the Xiantian stage.
"Right, Ning Yue asked me to pass a message to you. He wants you to focus on increasing your strength. He'll explain everything to you tomorrow morning." Elder Ming seemed to have thought of something and continued.
"Let's go. We'll go to the Dan Pool to increase our soul power first!"
Elder Ming's tone was unquestionable. He directly left with Lu Wei.
As for Elder Xuan, although he was very doubtful, he didn't ask much. Instead, he followed closely behind Elder Ming and flew towards the Dan Pool.
"Ning Yue, you've done well. Not only did you find the real Martial Pool, you even obtained the golden box at the bottom of the pool."
In a secret room, an illusory figure floated in mid-air and spoke in a clear voice.
Below the illusory figure, Ning Yue's expression was devoid of joy or sorrow. He said indifferently, "Dean Wei, I have a question I'd like to ask you."
"Oh?" The illusory figure was Wei Zongtian. At this moment, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's hear it."
Ning Yue waved his sleeves and the golden box immediately appeared in his hand.
Waving the golden box in his hand, Ning Yue asked doubtfully, "Can you tell me what exactly is in this golden box?"
Looking at the golden box in Ning Yue's hand, Wei Zongtian's eyes revealed a fervent expression.
However, this fervent expression disappeared in a flash and was quickly concealed by him.
"Actually, even if you didn't ask, I would have told you."
Wei Zongtian took a deep breath and explained, "I once told you that Chu Tianming saved an injured Heaven Devouring Dog, which ultimately led to a fatal disaster."
"The item in the golden box is the remnant of that injured Heaven Devouring Dog!"
"Chu Tianming asked me to find the remnant of the Heaven Devouring Dog. I'm just an illusory body and can't leave the Dan Martial Pool. That's why I asked you to find the real Martial Pool."
"Dean Wei, you still haven't told me what exactly is in the golden box." Ning Yue waved the golden box in his hand again and said, "In my opinion, why don't we open it here?"
