Chapter 1167 - 1167 Hanged to a Tree
1167 Hanged to a Tree
While Xue Fanxin and the others were enjoying delicious food, the other new students of the Five Elements Academy were all hungry. Some people were not only hungry, but they also had quite a few injuries and were in extreme pain.
They had no choice. The freshmen’s canteen had suddenly collapsed. The academy had already done an emergency treatment, but it was impossible to resolve the freshmen’s food problem for a while, so they could only starve for a night.
To cultivators, no matter how low-level a cultivator was, it was not a problem to starve for a meal or two.
As for the reason why the freshman canteen had suddenly collapsed, it was because Master Wanyan had an accident when she was cooking the spirit dishes. The spirit dishes exploded, blowing up the entire canteen.
Furthermore, Master Wanyan was lying on the bed with heavy injuries. She would probably not be able to get out of bed and cook for a month.
“That’s just an ordinary spirit herb. I’ve done it hundreds of times in the past. How could it explode? Someone must have harmed me. Someone wanted to harm me!” Master Wanyan was still shouting as she lay on the bed. The anger in her heart was extremely intense, and she wished she could immediately pull out the person who had harmed her and tear them apart.
However, she really did not know who was harming her. The explosion of the spirit dish she was cooking was a fact. Many people had seen it with their own eyes, so she had no way to explain it.
Feng Xiyu had also heard about the sudden collapse of the freshman canteen, but his heart was filled with doubts. With Master Wanyan’s culinary skills, even if anything happened in the spirit dishes, it was impossible for it to cause such a huge explosion.
He and Master Wanyan were considered friends. Now that such a huge thing had happened to his friend, he should visit her and understand this matter.
He had a feeling that the explosion of the spirit dish was not that simple.
Feng Xiyu prepared some small gifts and went to where Master Wanyan lived. Unexpectedly, three black-clothed people suddenly appeared on the way and covered him with a black cloth. Then, they beat him up and punched and kicked him. Furthermore, they specially hit his face.
“Ah…”
“Who are you?”
“Let go of me…”
No matter how Feng Xiyu struggled and screamed, it was useless. He was still beaten until he could not tell north from south. He had tried to resist, but he realized that he could not. He was beaten for a long time, and his consciousness slowly became blurry. In the end, he fainted.
After knocking Feng Xiyu out, the three black-clothed people stopped. Then, they gestured and communicated. They cut Feng Xiyu’s clothes into pieces and hung him on a tree.
One of the black-clothed people had a little sympathy and could not bear to look at Feng Xiyu hanging from the tree. He shook his head helplessly and sighed, having no intention of saving him.
This Feng Xiyu had offended someone he shouldn’t have offended. His outcome was destined to not be good. Furthermore, he was not worthy of sympathy, so there was no need to save him.
After the three black-clothed people hung Feng Xiyu on the tree, they gestured and left as quickly as possible, instantly disappearing without a trace. After reaching a hidden corner, they took off their black clothes.
“With our ability, do we really need to wear the Spirit Hiding Garment to teach Feng Xiyu a lesson?” Chuge said unhappily.
Muyu, on the other hand, said seriously and cautiously, “Just in case, it’s best to be careful. The Five Elements Academy is a place with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It’s hard to guarantee that no one will discover what we did. When wearing the Spirit Hiding Garment, even if we’re discovered, it won’t be a big deal.”
“Forget it, forget it. Anyway, it’s good as long as we can complete the mission given by the Nether King. Do you think the Nether King will be satisfied by how Feng Xiyu was beaten up?”
“I don’t know if the Nether King will be satisfied, but I know the Consort will like it.”
When Chuge and Muyu were conversing, Manqiu did not say a word and had a troubled expression.
Muyu saw through his thoughts and advised him. “Manqiu, Feng Xiyu’s outcome is destined to not be good, so you have to be mentally prepared. If you really can’t bear to do it, then you can return to the Nine Nether Holy Land. Chuge and I can do the things here.”
“There’s no need. I can do it. Actually, Feng Xiyu and I are no longer friends. That matter back then has long ended our friendship. We can’t stay here for long. Let’s go.” Manqiu put away his messy emotions and didn’t think too much about it. He turned around and left.
No matter what his relationship with Feng Xiyu was in the past, he no longer had anything to do with him.
