31. The Controller (II)
The more I thought about it, the more I found that something was wrong with the school, and the details that I had never cared about before slowly became unprecedentedly weird, and Zhang Longqian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
What kind of school am I in?
Is it really good to let Xiao Lu and Xiao Miao continue to stay in such a school?
Thinking about it unconsciously, she suddenly heard a slight sound, Zhang Longqian's thoughts were immediately pulled back, she grabbed the still flying Xiaoxue, and stopped suddenly.
"Beep?"
Xiaoxue didn't seem to hear the subtle sound, and looked at Zhang Longqian suspiciously.
"Xiaoxue, isn't Cangyan's breath just ahead?"
"Beep!"
Xiaoxue nodded.
"Very good, then I can do it myself, you stay in your pocket obediently, don't come out."
After speaking, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but stuff Xiaoxue into her coat pocket, and she looked at the deep darkness between the trees in front of her without blinking, and the expression on her face was very solemn.
There was an occasional slight sound in the gloomy forest, so it was certain that Cang Yan was still some distance away from here, but he must have already exchanged hands with something, but the deep woods seemed to be very calm, and there was no one fighting over there, and he couldn't imagine that the thing that could hold Cang Yan could only move so little.
However, although he looked calm, Zhang Longqian's vigilance was raised.
Dangerous.
Even if you can't see it, the movement is very small, but the aura that seems to tear everything apart is still revealed. Only a slight breath came over, and it did not spread around, as if it was unconsciously revealed in the battle with Cang Yan, but just like this, Zhang Longqian felt the pain of being cut all over his body, and it was hard to imagine how terrifying it would be when this breath was released without any scruples.
A word suddenly appeared in Zhang Longqian's mind.
Grade Difference.
It was like it was engraved in her soul, even if she didn't know much about it, she could be sure that it was an absolute rank difference with her, something she could never resist.
…… What the hell is that?
Feeling such a terrifying aura for the first time, Zhang Longqian's whole body stiffened.
Is it really good for me to be completely useless in the past?
No, it's not.
Clenched his fists, Zhang Longqian gritted his teeth and finally took a step.
What am I still confused about? You have to go, don't you?
The speed of progress became faster and faster, and finally, Zhang Longqian ran again. Soon, the branches and leaves that had been obstructing her vision disappeared abruptly, and a small clearing appeared in front of her, and two confronting figures appeared.
Cang Yan, and a man he didn't know.
The small clearing was no more than ten meters in circumference, but it was obviously not naturally formed, and there was a circle of fresh wood shards scattered around it, the thickest of which was no bigger than a thumb, all of which had been cut neatly by something sharp. But even if these tiny pieces of wood were piled up, they would not be able to grow as many trees as the clearing.
Although he only glanced at it, Zhang Longqian already knew where the remaining trees were.
Not a single weed was left on the ground, evenly covered with a layer of light brown powder like earth, which was also lifted by their movements when the two figures in the clearing moved, wafting in the air with the air current, and the smell of fresh plants spread.
The rest of the trees were all turned to powder.
Unable to imagine what kind of attack could turn all the trees in this clearing into powder in such a short period of time, Zhang Longqian's body stiffened with fear, but he couldn't take his eyes off the two figures.
Both of them were incredibly fast, and no one had time to use any large spells, only occasionally emitting a shallow light. Cangyan's golden flames didn't have a chance to gather, and the firelight that could be controlled was only normal red, but there were very few opportunities to use it, and the two of them were almost completely empty-handed, going back and forth so fast that they brought up phantoms, but they were almost silent.
The man who fought with Cang Yan obviously had a very small range of movements, every move was neat and not superfluous, and the control of his strength was also perfect, only when the occasional attack missed, he could not contain a little bit of strength, but that little bit of leakage of force would always be mixed with a terrifying aura to hit the trees on the periphery, and then completely smash the branches it touched - the subtle sound that Zhang Longqian heard came from this, and the light brown powder on the ground also came from this.
It's just hand-to-hand combat, it's just unintentional leakage, why can it reach such an unbelievable level? Is that man really human?
And Cang Yan, who has been unharmed until now, can he be called a "person" who can stalemate with that man?
Under the reflection of the occasional light of spells, the silent battle in front of him seemed to be happening in another world, making Zhang Longqian not know whether to speak out or not.
What if you are disturbed by her voice and cause Cang Yan to be distracted?
Now the two are obviously comparable, once Cang Yan is distracted, the result will definitely be "losing".
Thinking of this, Zhang Longqian frowned and closed his lips, not daring to make a sound.
But who is this man? Why did you fight with Cang Yan?
Wandering around the clearing where the trees were littered with debris, Zhang Longqian suddenly saw a little dark red on the ground, which was the bloodstain drawn around the magic circle. However, the bloodstains that were intertwined and extended by many patterns were broken in the clearing, and the patterns were obviously incomplete, and they were only about a meter away from connecting to form a circle that surrounded the circle.
I see.
His gaze moved back to the man again, and Zhang Longqian quickly sorted out the clues.
This man is probably the one they are looking for, the one who knows where the Yin and Yang Eyes are.
It was probably because Cang Yan bumped into him who was drawing a spell with human blood on the way to explore the magic circle, so he fought like this, so that the spells on the ground were only barely connected.
Nangong Piao said that these patterns painted with human blood are some spells that forcibly break some seals, although I don't know what is sealed here, but since the controller wants to release that thing, it must not be a harmless thing. Cang Yan should have also noticed this, and in order to prevent him from drawing the spell, he would immediately hand it over to the controller.
After understanding the current situation, Zhang Longqian frowned with some concern.
Too bad.
Although their goal was to find the controller, and they hoped to find him in the school forest, the timing of discovering him was too bad.
