Seeing the mysterious man in the mountain ghost mask leave, Fu Baosong muttered, "He seems to know me."
The old dean sighed and picked up the two Dao techniques left on the chair. "He said his name is Zhang Linchuan. Do you remember him?"
Fu Baosong thought for a moment and said, "When Maplewood City was still around, there was a senior brother in Maplewood City who used lightning techniques called Zhang Linchuan. In the end, he lost to Senior Brother Lin Zhengren. "
The dean glanced at his disciple. He was actually very clear about Lin Zhengren's attitude towards Fu Baosong. He also knew that Fu Baosong had never gotten along with the Lin family. However, Fu Baosong would never say anything about these people behind their backs. He would always address Lin Zhengren as his senior brother. This child never lacked the courage to face the dark side head-on, but he never had the ruthlessness to backstab others.
It was precisely these details that made him choose to pass down his life's work to Fu Baosong and not Lin Zhengren, who was stronger and more talented.
These thoughts only flashed through his mind. The dean of Wangjiang City's Dao Academy said, "That's impossible. I know Zhengren's strength very well. Even the current Zhengren is far from being as strong as this person just now. Moreover, the entire Maplewood City has sunk into the Netherworld and not a single blade of grass grows. How could Zhang Linchuan survive? "
Thinking of Maplewood City that had turned into a ghost town overnight, Fu Baosong felt sorrowful and casually speculated, "Maybe it's an alias. Maybe it's just the same name."
"I hope it's just the same name." The dean sighed with an emotion that Fu Baosong did not understand. Then, he placed the two books in his hands in Fu Baosong's hands. "Take it and study it carefully."
Fu Baosong looked up at him. "Teacher, this …"
The dean patted his shoulder and stopped him from rejecting. "My talent is limited. This is the end of my life. You have a better future and are more worthy of these Dao techniques. Use the fastest time to master them. This way, the Rotten Wood Technique won't be handed over for nothing. This is an order. "
Fu Baosong had been stubborn since he was young. When faced with some things, even the dean of Wangjiang City's Dao Academy might not be able to persuade him.
However, he would definitely listen to the dean's orders, no matter how unwilling he was.
Fu Baosong held the two daoist techniques tightly in his hands. "Baosong will work hard."
The dean nodded in relief and said, "Now, go and ring the courtyard bell and ask for help from the experts in the entire Wangjiang City."
"Teacher." Fu Baosong hesitated for a moment. "It's too late to ask for help now. Moreover, if that person is enraged, he'll … "
"Of course it's too late to ask for help now. However, we must spread the news that the Rotten Wood Formula has been stolen. Otherwise, if that person does something evil in the future and exposes the Rotten Wood Method, then you and I will not be able to escape responsibility no matter what. "
Ol 'Amos said, "Besides, if we ask for help now, we won't be able to do anything to that person. From the way he does things, he's someone with a bottom line. He won't return to the Dao Academy for revenge. "
Fu Baosong understood the teacher's concerns and nodded. "I'll go now."
The dean added from behind him, "If the City Lord and the others come over later, you have to remember. I was the one who gave him the Rotten Wood Formula. This is my unique dao technique, and I have the right to make the choice. "
"But in fact …"
"This is the truth!" The dean interrupted him very sternly. "This is also an order."
Allowing an unfamiliar cultivator to snatch away their unique Dao technique was a matter of great importance. If the dean himself handed over his own dao technique for the safety of the students of the Dao Academy, no one would be able to criticize him.
However, if Fu Baosong handed over his dao technique, it was very likely that others would say that he was afraid of death, and it would be detrimental to his future development in the imperial court.
The old dean was taking the blame for himself and shielding his disciple from the storm. After considering all aspects, even his own son would not be more than this.
Fu Baosong gritted his teeth and went in the end.
The bell of the Chengdao Academy rang nine times in a row, immediately alarming all the experts in the Wangjiang City region.
The Chengdao Academy was the most important place in the entire city region. If anything happened, none of them would be able to escape responsibility.
The City Lord of Wangjiang City, who was at the Inner Mansion Realm, arrived in a flash. The Enforcer of Wangjiang City, who was at the peak of the Soaring Dragon Realm, also arrived later.
Fortunately, the Dao Academy of Wangjiang City did not suffer any substantial losses. It was just that the dean was forced to seize a unique dao technique.
As for the villain who barged into the Chengdao Academy at night, after asking about his approximate strength, the City Lord of Wangjiang City had already decided on a plan to deal with this matter.
The pursuit had to be carried out. It involved the reputation of the city, but the execution would definitely be loud and small. After all, the other party was at least at the Inner Mansion Realm. Not many people in the entire Wangjiang City region could deal with him. And as the City Lord, he couldn't just drop everything and personally pursue that criminal.
In any case, the Chengdao Academy did not suffer any substantial losses, and the Chengdao Academy did not have a strong desire to pursue the matter.
In a few words, the City Lord, the dean of the Chengdao Academy, and the Enforcer of the Arrest Department, the three highest echelons of the city region had already reached a tacit understanding and made arrangements.
They issued a warrant, strengthened the night patrols, and sent a few teams of cultivators to put on a show. That was all.
…
…
Jiang Wang left the Dao Academy of Wangjiang City. He did not feel too happy about completing his goal.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Jiang Yan's voice sounded in the Heavenly Palace. "Coercion, temptation, coercion … I thought that I was the only one who could do these things."
"Mock me if you want." Jiang Wang was unmoved. "I must take back what the Zhuang State owes me."
"You're willing to do anything for this?"
Jiang Wang did not answer his question directly, but said, "I didn't lie to them just now. If they still refuse to give it to me when the time is up, I will give up."
"You still feel guilty." Jiang Yan laughed. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have explained it to me."
"If only that dean was an evil person. That way, no matter how you torture him, even if you destroy his will, you don't have to feel guilty."
"I have a secret technique that can trigger the evil thoughts in people's hearts. Wait until the subject has done something evil, then you can deal with him, and your conscience will be at ease. How about it? Do you want to learn it? "
"You clearly have more choices and can become stronger faster. Why are you binding yourself?"
"What standards are you holding yourself to? Who cares? "
"Don't you feel tired living like this?"
"Why don't you let go of yourself …"
"Stronger, easier, and more free …"
Jiang Yan was especially active tonight and chattered non-stop.
The guilt he felt when facing Fu Baosong became a temporary loophole in Jiang Wang's heart.
Jiang Yan was keenly aware of this and tried to expand the gap in his mental defenses.
During the entire process, he did not use any secret techniques. He only used words to control his emotions.
This was because the use of any secret technique at this moment was equivalent to a direct declaration of war. He was not willing to start a soul battle with Jiang Wang now.
However, Jiang Wang remained silent.
Instead, his eyes became calmer and calmer as he walked silently in Wangjiang City in the night.
At this moment, the nine bells of Wangjiang City's Dao Academy rang for help.
