Chapter 1190: Stalemate
The explosion successfully allowed Elder Hua Feng to notice Chu Liuyue’s presence.
The main thing was that the incident happened too quickly, and he was focused on calling for Elder Wan Zheng. As he was too anxious, he directly spoke when he saw the latter, not realizing that Chu Liuyue was still at the side.
The venue fell silent. Only the spreading burning smell indicated what had just happened.
Chu Liuyue looked at the extinguished cauldron in front of her with its inside and edges totally black. One more step… Even the pattern on it was about to be formed!
She gradually clenched her fists.
The atmosphere gradually became strange and nervous.
Elder Wan Zheng then realized that he seemed to have done something wrong as he opened his mouth and glanced at Elder Wan Zheng anxiously. “Um… Did I come at the wrong time…”
Elder Wan Zheng glanced at him deeply. Needless to say! This kid was about to succeed! I held it in the entire time and patiently waited without leaving, wanting to see Chu Yue successfully produce the ninth-grade pill! Great, everything is wasted!
“Um, Chu Yue—” Elder Hua Feng also felt rather embarra.s.sed. He was about to explain when he saw the young man turn over.
The young man’s handsome and gentle face had lost its usual smile and had more cold intent.
“Elder Hua Feng,” said that young man coldly.
Elder Hua Feng’s heart trembled for some reason, and he instinctively answered. “Yeah?”
“Did you say that Fangzhou is in a mess? Rong Xiu… Senior Brother Rong Xiu is being surrounded?
“Yeah! Hm? Why are you asking about this?” Elder Hua Feng originally thought that the young man was angry because his pill was destroyed and wanted to reason with him, but he didn’t think that the latter would ask about this, so he nodded without much thinking.
After saying it, he suddenly felt that it wasn’t good to let a student know about this. Thus, he added, “But don’t worry. We’ll be going over right away, so there won’t be much of a problem.”
As he spoke, he looked at Elder Wan Zheng.
Elder Wan Zheng sighed in his heart. “Chu Yue, go back first. We’ll settle the matter outside.”
Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes. If things could be settled that simply, Elder Hua Feng wouldn t be so nervous when he came and wouldn’t have said such words, They arejust saying these things to comfort me.
However, she didn’t show these thoughts as she acted as if she believed them and heaved a sigh of relief. ‘That’s good. I still thought… Actually, Mentor wanted to leave earlier, but he was delayed because I was producing the pill.”
She looked at Elder Wan Zheng. “Mentor, you should follow Elder Hua Feng and take a look!”
Elder Wan Zheng sighed. “Okay. It’s a pity about your pill today… You could’ve succeeded…”
Chu Liuyue then smiled. “I’ve already felt the barrier, so I’ll succeed sooner or later. You don’t have to worry, but… Your previous promise still counts, right?”
Seeing that Chu Liuyue’s att.i.tude was still decent and that she didn’t blame the world due to her failure, Elder Wan Zheng felt comforted. “Of course, it does! Besides, Elder Hua Feng has a part to play in this issue today. In the future, I’ll get him to give some points to you to make up for it!”
Elder Hua Feng didn’t know what this mentor-disciple duo was talking about, but it seemed like it was related to points. This wasn’t a big deal, so he immediately agreed. “That’s right! I’ll make it up to you when I come back!”
Chu Liuyue smiled with even deeper meaning as she respectfully bowed. “I won’t bother you anymore. Mentor, I’ll leave first.”
Elder Wan Zheng thought that she was about to go back and study the pill, so he directly agreed.
Thinking of the trouble outside that hadn’t been settled, the two elders quickly left.
Chu Liuyue was soon left alone on the mountain.
When the two elders’ figures disappeared, Chu Liuyue’s smile slowly disappeared. Her black gem-like eyes seemed to have ripples. Fangzhou City? People actually dare to chase them here and cause trouble for Ling Xiao Academy? The key is—what exactly is ‘that thing?’ As it is with RongXiu, Rong Xiu isn ‘t in an optimistic situation?
She turned around and walked down the mountain.
Fangzhou.
The varying parties of people fell into a stalemate.
Rong Xiu was standing in the middle, and the people from the Golden Wings Sect surrounded him completely.
The outer layer was Elder Shu Feng and the rest, including people from Ling Xiao Academy who gradually came over.
At this point, the number of people kept increasing.
Countless people were looking up from the city, and their hearts shook. Who would’ve thought they would see such a scene at Fangzhou, outside Ling Xiao Academy?
All of those people in the sky were legendary warriors from the G.o.d Residence Realm! Now, the focus of their fight was clearly Rong Xiu!
Elder Shu Feng and the rest had ugly expressions. This was because according to the previous plan, as long as they activated their Xuan formation, they would be able to forcefully create a transportation formation to go back to the academy directly. However, they didn’t expect these people to be so relentless and chase them all the way over here!
Jin Lei and the rest weren’t feeling any better. They originally wanted to quickly handle Rong Xiu when they reached Fangzhou to s.n.a.t.c.h the item back. Who would’ve known that Rong Xiu was extremely strong and delayed until this moment!?
Increasingly more people came out from Ling Xiao Academy, and they all gathered at this place.
If this continued, their situation would be increasingly worse! They had to handle it as soon as possible!
But both parties had their own fears and things holding them back, so they entered an awkward state.
Finally, Jin Lei held up the ax in his hands, and thunderous sounds could be heard from below his feet.
He went straight to Rong Xiu! “Everyone, go up! Settle him!”
