Chapter 31: The Master Behind

Zhan Xiaoyao nodded with some understanding: "I want to go out for a walk this New Year holiday. Let's talk. I'll go out for a walk. If I don't come back, don't worry about me. By the way, I'll give you your flame knife."

Zhan Xiaoyao's entrance flew straight toward the city.

When he was at the inn, Zhan Xiaoyao was very proud and spent 50 ordinary top-quality spirit stones in great pain to hire the fastest "Winged Beast" flying cavalry.

This winged beast looks like a horse but not a horse, with a pair of wide white wings, and is very handsome.

With a wave of his big wings, he pulled a luxurious carriage and flew into the air.

Cities and villages passed by, Zhan Xiaoyao couldn't help but look at the landform under his feet, but couldn't see anything clearly, and he could not find anything when he flew too high and could not find anything.

Two days later, Zhan Xiaoyao, who was meditating, woke up and a quite wide Grand Canyon appeared in front of his feet.

"This must be the Wanshe Canyon, the dividing line between the Central Region and the Southern Region."

The mountains appear in the distance when passing through the canyon, and the whole mountain is clear and green, which is obviously different from the peaks elsewhere.

“Emerald Mountains?”

Zhan Xiaoyao looked at the mountains curiously, but did not see any abnormalities.

Zhan Xiaoyao withdrew his gaze, entered a state of cultivation, and condensed the spiritual energy snatched from "Spiritual Eater".

Forcibly seize the spiritual energy that has been condensed in the body of the martial arts practitioner. Although it will increase one's own cultivation, it is necessary to refine the snatched spiritual energy as soon as possible, or you need to take the "Spiritual Transformation Pill" within three days.

Otherwise, the mind will be eroded by violence and murderous intent, and the spiritual energy without refining will be restless in the body. Without the harmony of the "Shuxin Dan", it will destroy people and be crazy.

A few days passed, and the flying carriage suddenly felt a sense of falling. The snatched spiritual energy had been completely refined. Zhan Xiaoyao then opened his eyes and a city had appeared in front of him.

The winged beast has already flew over the city and is flying towards an inn.

The winged beast's wide wings suddenly slapped its four hooves and landed lightly on the ground.

With a bang, the carriage stopped heavily on the ground.

A simple-dressed horsewoman immediately walked up to him.

"Here, this is the certificate of hiring a carriage, and I will return it to you."

"The guest official walks slowly, welcome to hire our carriage again."

"Inquiry about something from you? How can I get to the residence of Lord He Baichuan?"

The horseman hesitated for a moment and opened his mouth and said, "Which He Baichuan?"

"The Lord of the Broken Sword Hall?"

The horseman suddenly realized: "Oh, he, walk from this street to the end, turn right, walk straight through three streets, and you can see it."

The entire city is paved with gray stone slabs, with fewer pedestrians coming and going, far less prosperous than Zhenlongcheng.

The rows of homestays are unique in shape, with glazed tiles on the roofs and green moss on the walls everywhere.

It seems that He Baichuan is not very famous. Zhan Xiaoyao walked towards He Baichuan's residence, turned the corner of the street, and a relatively simple mansion appeared.

"He Zui"

The gate of the mansion was closed, and the two big words "He Zhai" were engraved on the plaque of the door. Zhan Xiaoyao observed for a while and found no abnormalities before turning around and leaving.

The night was dark, Zhan Xiaoyao was wearing a night-walking clothes and covering his head, and was running the "Still the Mind" to sneak towards the He Mansion.

Ye Xingyi was indeed good, and there was no sound in his actions, and the spiritual energy in Zhan Xiaoyao's body was also blocked.

On an eaves near He Mansion, Zhan Xiaoyao stopped and watched carefully.

The lights in the He Mansion were brightly lit, and the courtyards were hung with white elegy couplets and white tents. There were more than a dozen coffins in the courtyard, and dozens of people were kneeling on the ground in mourning clothes.

There is also a courtyard with a dark green light shining, which is covered by a small shielding formation, and it is impossible to see the specific description clearly.

The entire courtyard was very deep, and there were more than a dozen people kneeling in the lobby inside.

Zhan Xiaoyao swept gently and sneaked towards another eaves.

Suddenly, a slight sound of breaking through the air came. Zhan Xiaoyao quickly hid in the mansion, hiding in the shadow of the eaves, holding his breath and concentrating.

I saw a black figure floating on the eaves opposite, looking towards the He Mansion.

The black shadow had a slim and delicate figure. After waiting for a while, the figure sneaked towards the eaves of the lobby.

Zhan Xiaoyao quickly used the "Qiankun Stone" and spirit stone around He Mansion to arrange a medium-sized formation that shields the breath. After igniting it, he used the shadow of the eaves to sweep into the deepest courtyard.

There was a separate room next to the lobby. Zhan Xiaoyao's eyes narrowed. He Jiangshan knelt on the ground in white clothes, talking to a middle-aged man with a sinister and gloomy face.

"Dad, it was Zhan Xiaoyao who bullied people too much. I was so angry that I sent the news to my uncle. That kid was a waste before. His cultivation level soared in a few months. The child suffered a lot. He was an orphan, and no one cared about his death. The day before yesterday, I received a message from my uncle and let him go near the gate of the academy. But I met Zhan Xiaoyao who returned. When I went out to check, the uncle and the disciples of the Broken Sword Hall had already encountered an unexpected problem. I didn't know that this would happen."

Zhan Xiaoyao clenched his gums and found out that He Jiangshan was calling the person who attacked him outside the academy.

The middle-aged man looked sad and angry and ruthless: "I sent you to the martial arts Academy to learn martial arts. You are so good that you can cause trouble for me. Your uncle died, and I will break your leg today." He raised his hand and wanted to slash it down with a palm.

He Jiangshan cried, with aggrieved face, hurriedly avoiding, and shouted loudly: "Dad, what's wrong with the child? It's just a big fuss among the students. Who knew that the evil star would actually have accomplices."

The middle-aged man sighed: "Your uncle is a martial artist after all. Those students in the academy will never be his opponent. Something happened so close to the academy. From the traces left, there were at least one martial artist and two mages. Your uncle is extremely cautious in his behavior and will never be so rash, nor is it the enemy's actions. No matter how good your student is in his class, how could he silence them in such a short time? He must have a helper."

The middle-aged man continued, "Shan'er, who do you think is the most likely Wushuo in the academy?"

"Dad, there is no mage in our academy. Xie Feiyan, the one with the highest magic cultivation, is impossible for uncle to provoke the girl from the Xie family. There are nearly a hundred martial arts sects, but it is not clear whether it hides the magic attainments."

The middle-aged man's cheek muscles kept trembling: "It's impossible for my He family to swallow his anger so much. Investigate, you must check the reason. Zhan Xiaoyao? Martial Arts Academy? Humph, I'm going to ask clearly."

The middle-aged man continued, "By the way, since Zhan Xiaoyao was a waste before, why could he survive? Why could his cultivation soar? What cultivation is now? Have you checked it?"

"Zhan Xiaoyao was originally a student who respected his teachers and was diligent and studious, but had extremely poor qualifications. He was born with a 'rotten wood' body and had not practiced until the first level before awakening.

He is still an orphan, and people bully him and beat him every day, and the entire college doesn't care about it.

One day, a man in black found me and Xie Kaiyuan and gave us 50 ordinary top-quality spirit stones to find fault and beat the waste to death.

We were very serious at that time. According to common sense, we should have been seriously injured and killed, but unexpectedly, a few days later, the guy improved completely, and when he woke up, he became completely different and caused trouble everywhere.

Dad, although he was useless before, he has not only humiliated the top students in their class in public, but also cut the wrists of dozens of middle-grade students who bullied the academy. In public, he also injured me, Xie Kaiyuan, and Zhang Xieyi, one by one.

Dad, I was at the eighth level of the Second Spirit Pearl at that time, just a punch with him. My whole arm was injured, but he had nothing to do, so I was even more confused."

He Baichuan looked solemn: "That's strangely tight. Perhaps he met some master, got conditioned by his master or took the elixir against the sky."

He Jiangshan continued to cry and said, "And, the proud daughter of our college, Xie Huaicheng, Xie Feiyan, the second lady of the Xie family in Xie Huaicheng, the second level of the Three Spirit Pearls. That kid flirted with her in public in class. Wang Zhiyong, the eldest son of Wang Huaiyuan, was repaired by him in public. That arrogant boy was dead. I just contacted the uncle to please the Wang family, helping Wang Da Shao exaggerate his anger, and also win over the relationship between our two families."

He Baichuan's eyes narrowed: "What you said is true?"

Zhan Xiaoyao cursed in his heart: I am already pretending to be like him, and I’m still adding fuel to the fire.

He Jiangshan's eyes froze: "Really, many students have seen it with their own eyes. Also, Lan Tingqian, the martial arts scholar in the college, said that he did not respect his teachers and wanted to punish him and fired him. He made a fuss in the dormitory of the Lan Wu Sect. That time, he heard that the dean had come forward and specially approved it. That kid would not have to attend classes. Not long after, the Lan Wu Sect disappeared."

Zhan Xiaoyao was suddenly shocked. It seemed that someone had released the news about the dean, and it might be Lan Ting Qian.

He Baichuan opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise: "The dean of the college? What is his name? What is his cultivation level? He actually protected a student in front of the Wushu Sect. I'm afraid this kid is not simple. You said that the Lan Wushu Sect is missing, but is it really? He saw the corpse?"

"The dean is very mysterious. I have never seen it before. I don't know much about my cultivation. I only know that the martial arts sect and the great martial arts masters in the management are very afraid of him. There was no news about the Lanting money, and suddenly disappeared, and the academy did not give any explanation."

He Baichuan said suspiciously: "It seems that the water in your college is very deep, that kid is not simple, interesting. It seems that I wronged you, maybe it's the secret of the college dean or his confidant in private."

He Jiangshan said in confusion: "Dad, since that kid's injury improved, he has become completely different from his personal life. He is really weird and tight."

He Baichuan was angry: "Don't let your mother's farts go, you don't study hard, and you can't beat others all day long, so you will blow them into a god. Humph, do you think I don't know what you did in the academy? A once useless man, even if he takes the elixir against the sky and forcefully opens his spiritual veins, how powerful can he be? Maybe he will be his cultivation at a huge cost, and he will die sooner or later."

He Jiangshan said rudely: "Dad, if you scold my mother, isn't my mother yours?"

He Baichuan was furious: "Kneel down for me."
