Chapter 40: A Conspiracy in the Dark

Time goes back to two months after Qing Wu and Ziling retreated. When Yunxi passed by the Demon Forest, a man in black rushed through, obviously very familiar with this road, avoiding a territory with a high-level demon beast and heading towards Luocheng, the capital of Biluo Country.

The gorgeous mansion is full of red silk, and life is boiling at this moment, with sheng flutes bursting, gongs and drums roaring, and a piece of joy and peace.

"Prime Minister Qiu, congratulations, you are the father-in-law who has become the second prince!" A middle-aged man with a big belly and a round face had a flattering look on his face, and he looked as if he was the one who married his daughter to the prince today.

"Haha, thank you so much. The person who was congratulated looked like he was in his sixties, and the gloom that inadvertently slipped through a pair of eyes on his seemingly elegant and gentle face made him pass by and see this scene, Zhuge Wuheng frowned slightly.

Speaking of which, a lot of things have happened in the city recently, such as the waste lady of the Zhuge family who broke through the body of waste materials and can cultivate, and for example, there were students who were only eight or nine years old in Yunnuo Academy, and for example, students of Yunnuo Academy disappeared in the academy for no reason. Zhuge Wuheng is very concerned about the last thing, after all, his baby daughter and Xiao Qingwu are in it, and there is an old man at home who spoils those two who can't do it, urging himself every day to bring the two of them home. But he didn't even see the faces of those two guys, and the cultivation tower was not allowed to enter, so he could not show that he was under a lot of pressure. Later, after thinking about it, he decisively changed direction and decided to find the murderer behind the scenes. So now when he saw a person with little kind eyes, the suspicion in his heart rose slowly.

Qiu Hesheng seemed to sense the gaze from Zhuge Wuheng, nodded slightly and smiled: "The head of the Zhuge family can come, it is really brilliant. Zhuge Wuheng took over his father's appointment a few months ago and became the new head of the Zhuge family.

"Where, there is a royal daughter-in-law in your mansion's feng shui treasure, but she is stronger than my girl. Zhuge Wuheng quickly showed a formulaic smile, obviously he had practiced to the point of being handy, Qiu Hesheng heard this, and there was a gloom in his eyes, who doesn't know that your daughter has now entered Yunnuo Academy, and she will be weaker than my daughter who can't get in after three years of exams, hum. Thinking about it, the expression on his face was modest, and he said: "Miss Zhuge has now entered Yunnuo Academy, which is comparable to my family Ying'er." "The royal family wants to marry your daughter, but you agree!

Zhuge Wuheng smiled modestly when he heard this, but he was very proud in his heart, but because of his words, the doubt in his heart gradually forgot.

・・・・・・

The night is deep, and the stars seem to be obscured by thick clouds, which makes people feel heavy to watch. The vermilion gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was like a blood-red mouth that wanted to devour a qiē.

The faint candle flame in the study jumped up and down, with a hint of weirdness.

"Dad, Ying'er married into the royal family, and we have completed the first step of the plan. Qiu Hesheng's voice lost the gentleness of the day, and sounded cold.

"Well, the best in the royal family is the crown prince Baili Qianmo, but it's a pity that this person is deep in mind and can't be used by us. A hoarse voice came from the mouth of the old man on the throne.

"The biggest advantage of Baili Qianran is that he is stupid, and it is convenient for such a person to control him. Qiu Hesheng evoked a mocking smile, as if to comfort the old man.

"That's right. Come in. The old man glanced out the window, frowned, and said, "But the hall master has a new order?"

"Yes, the person who sent it back these days finally found the news about Biling Pill in the memory of a student. This is a message from the Lord of the Temple. The man in black said and handed over a letter.

The old man took the letter, read it, put it on the candle flame, and watched it turn into ashes little by little: "Shangguan Qingwu, Zhuge Ziling・・・・・・" The hoarse voice exuded endless coldness in the dark night.

Qing Wu, who was retreating in the cultivation tower, suddenly felt a trace of palpitations, and his eyes opened suddenly, and his red eyes were moving, but they turned black again in an instant. Frowning slightly, he got up and went to the fifth floor to find Ziling.

The two of them hadn't left here since they had been advancing for a few months, so they didn't know anything about what was happening in the academy, and they didn't know that Zhuge Wuheng had come to look for them. I didn't see Helian Can's four of them all the way, and for some reason, Qing Wu's heart tightened and he was uneasy.

"Qingwu, what's wrong?" Ziling asked when she saw that her face was not very good.

"Ziling, I have a gut feeling that a few of them are in danger. Without hesitation, Qing Wu said what she thought from the bottom of her heart.

"Then let's get out of here. "Ziling clearly knows how accurate his captain's intuition is, and he was able to survive so many dangers without danger, and the captain's intuition contributed a lot.

"Yes. Without further ado, the two of them quickly walked out of the cultivation tower.

There were not many students on the road, showing a sense of gloom, what happened?

"Hello senior, I've been in retreat lately, I wonder if something happened at school?" Ziling asked with a light smile on the corner of her mouth to stop a student.

"Oh, it's a school girl", the boy who was stopped was in a hurry, but when he saw the beautiful purple bell, his footsteps stopped unconsciously, and then said: "Recently, more than a dozen students in the school have disappeared, you should either go back to the dormitory area or go to the cultivation tower now, it's too dangerous outside." ”

"Are all the missing students in the academy?" Yunxi asked.

"It should be, but there's no way to know for sure when you're out on a mission. ”

In other words, everything that has been determined is in the academy. Qing Wu's cold voice carried a hint of chill, those guys went out to practice a month ago・・・・・・

Ziling obviously thought of it too, and the two glanced at each other, and then walked quickly to the mission hall.

"Mentor, we would like to check on the assignment in dormitory 63 of the Spirit Academy. Ziling said to the instructor on duty, taking out her wooden card.

The tutor on duty was originally drowsy and lying on his stomach, because of the disappearance of the past few days, most of the students were protected by the academy tutor in the dormitory area and the cultivation tower, and almost no one would come here, hearing the girl's voice, and then hearing that it was the person from the sixty-third of the Spirit Academy, he suddenly woke up. This is the school's much-buzzing genius dormitory!

"Okay, I'll look it up. It was to go to the Fog Spirit Mountain to find the Fog Shadow Fruit. ”

"Thank you. Hearing this, the two of them frowned even deeper, the Fog Shadow Fruit is a kind of spirit fruit unique to the Fog Spirit Mountain, and the Fog Spirit Mountain is not far from the academy, a maximum of three days away, and if they take the Spirit Fruit, it should not be too much of a problem to defeat an eighth-order Blood Shadow Spirit Cat with their strength, so it is possible that they have not come back for more than half a month?

"Let's go. Qing Wu said in a deep voice.

"Yes. ”
