Ling Ling raised her eyebrows.
Heh, it seems like the relationship between these young men is quite complicated!
Actually, Lingling had already looked up some simple information just now.
This Takaqiaofeng was not the most outstanding person in the national training hall. The Wangyue Seven Fields' performance was even better than him.
Initially, the Wangyue Seven Fields had a great chance of becoming a member of the national team. However, it seemed like the Wangyue Clan had managed to suppress the news due to the serious moral issues that the Wangyue Seven Fields had faced. As a result, the Wangyue Seven Fields had lost the chance to become a member of the national team.
Since the Wangyue Seven Fields had lost the chance to become a member of the national team, Takaqiaofeng was the chosen candidate.
Ling Ling was eager to know if the Wangyue Seven Fields had done something out of line because he could not control his thoughts, or if Takaqiaofeng had done something that forced the Wangyue Seven Fields to lose the chance to become a member of the national team!
For a moment, Ling Ling sensed a palace intrigue from them.
As for what exactly had happened to the Wangyue Clan, Mo Fan would have to ask the people of the Wangyue Clan when he woke up. Lingling would not know the details, either.
Takaqiaofeng, Yong Shan, and Mochizuki Seven Fields should have had a very close relationship in the past. They could be considered as the Iron Triangle, but because of the recent events, things had become a little bad. Ling Ling also wanted to know if this was due to the influence of the Red Magic Magnetic Field, revealing everyone's dark side, or if there was a hidden danger in their relationship.
"Qi Ye, don't you think you've crossed the line? Do you really think I should apologize to you after what happened to you?" Takaqiaofeng was infuriated. He did not expect Qi Ye to say something like that.
Qi Ye turned around and glanced at Takaqiaofeng. He harrumphed coldly and left the dining hall.
Many people were in the dining hall. The two were quite loud, too. Everyone was looking at Takaqiaofeng and Qi Ye.
After a while, people began to lower their heads and discuss. Gao Qiaofeng also realized the awkward atmosphere, but considering that Ling Ling was still eating, he could only bite the bullet and sit there.
"I'm really sorry for letting you see such an embarrassing argument. Actually, we've always had a good relationship. We studied together, trained together, and played together. Qi Ye lost his qualification because of that incident, so he's in a terrible mood. It's normal for him to blame others for the situation. I shouldn't have said something like that," Gao Qiaofeng sighed, looking like he was reflecting on himself.
"Yeah, the two of them are always arguing with one another, but I bet that Qi Ye will come to see Gao Qiaofeng off on the day he leaves for the national team. What's there to argue about? It doesn't matter which one of you is on the national team. You are both bringing honor to us!" said Yong Shan with a smile.
"Yongshan, how is your uncle recently? Does he still suffer from insomnia?" Gao Qiaofeng asked.
"Sigh, don't even mention it. He always screams like he just saw a ghost at night. We even asked a Psychic Magician to take a look at him. The Psychic Magician confirmed that he's suffering from a psychological problem," said Yongshan.
"Yongshan's uncle is the guard of the East Guardian Tower," Gao Qiaofeng whispered to Ling Ling.
Ling Ling nodded.
The East Guardian Tower was the place where the Red Devils were born. It was basically a prison for criminals who had committed serious crimes. They all possessed powerful magic, or some strange evil arts!
Yongshan's uncle was on sick leave. His condition was no different than being possessed by a vengeful spirit. However, the Necromancer and the Light Magician had inspected him. They did not find any sign of a vengeful spirit wandering around. They had also considered the possibility of a Curse, but it was not a Curse, either.
In the end, they confirmed that it was a psychological problem. He could only rely on himself to deal with the situation. The Psychic Magician could only comfort him, so he could have a good night's sleep one day.
Ling Ling asked for more details. Since Yongshan's uncle was the guard of the East Guardian Tower, he had the highest chance of coming into contact with the aura of the Red Devils. He was also the easiest person to be affected by the magnetic field of the Red Devils.
"Basically, there was a leader of the evil arts in the East Guardian Tower. The leader was able to spread his evil arts in the East Guardian Tower, convincing the other prisoners to become his followers. The Master of the East Guardian Tower was unaware of the existence of the evil arts in the beginning. However, when the evil arts were strong enough to threaten the magic formation of the East Guardian Tower, the Master of the East Guardian Tower immediately made the decision to execute all the prisoners who might be part of the evil arts."
"As a matter of fact, there weren't as many members of the evil arts as the Master of the East Guardian Tower thought. Many people were killed by accident because of the Master of the East Guardian Tower's panic. My uncle actually killed a prisoner by accident."
"Initially, the prisoners locked up in the East Guardian Tower were more important than the prisoners on death row. Even if he accidentally killed one of them, he would only feel a little guilty."
"Who would have thought that in less than three days, the prisoner who was accidentally killed by my uncle would be proven innocent and be framed? Not only was he innocent, he had done a great deed, but he died in the East Guardian Tower. Many people demanded an explanation from the East Guardian Tower, but the Master of the East Guardian Tower didn't dare to tell them that he had failed in his duty and caused the evil arts to grow stronger, nor did he dare to expose the fact that he had accidentally killed a lot of prisoners due to his fear of the evil arts. Therefore, he disguised the innocent prisoner as a suicide and carelessly sent him away. "
Yong Shan was a chatterbox. He was never good at hiding his thoughts. He easily revealed the past of the East Guardian Tower, and it severely affected the reputation of the East Guardian Tower.
Ling Ling listened attentively. He had a rough idea why Yong Shan's uncle was being haunted by demons recently.
The moonless night was approaching. The entire Shuangshou Pavilion seemed to be shrouded in a strange aura. The pain that they could not talk to anyone about, the crimes that happened in the corners that no one cared about, the screams and cries of despair, they seemed to have gathered into a terrifying aura, gradually affecting those who were feeling guilty and hiding their secrets …
It was very likely to be a sign that the Red Demon Yiqiu was about to return!
…
"I'll take a look around myself. You don't have to accompany me since you still have training in the afternoon," Ling Ling said to Gao Qiaofeng.
"Let a soldier go with you," said Gao Qiaofeng worriedly.
"It's fine."
"Alright, I'll see you at dinner, alright?" asked Gao Qiaofeng.
"Mm."
Ling Ling went to the top of the West Guardian Pavilion. It was a sturdy fortress built with huge rocks. Most of the soldiers were stationed there.
Following the invasion of the sea monsters, the military fortress of the West Guardian Pavilion was being expanded. The number of soldiers kept increasing, too. Ling Ling had obtained a pass, so he went around the military area of the West Guardian Pavilion and went to the suspension bridge.
