Wind Picking Academy, Wind Gathering Field.
All the instructors and students of the college were gathered here. All around were spies from the city lord's palace and soldiers from the garrison, with their swords drawn and their swords drawn.
In the square, the flag with the emblem of the city lord's mansion was raised high. Under the banner, the lord of Xiafeng City, Wei Zhongduan, sat on a chair, with a tea table set up in front of him. A pot of boiling water was bubbling on the red-hot iron stove. On the tea table, a bowl of tea has been brewed. The color of the tea soup is so thick that it is a little turbid, and there is a bitter taste in the steaming heat.
Wei Zhong picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. It was extremely bitter and astringent. Such strong tea has long lost the fragrance that tea should have, but Wei Zhong likes to use such a taste to stimulate himself, or to punish himself.
The previous action was such a failure that most of his most trusted twelve family guards were lost. Such a setback has never happened since he took over as the lord of Xiafeng City.
Wei Zhong put down his tea bowl and glanced at the instructors and students of Zhaifeng Academy gathered in the square beside him.
"Are you all here?" Wei Zhong asked.
"Guo Youdao has not been found yet." Someone next to him immediately answered.
All the teachers and students of Fengfeng Academy, including Guo Ting and Li Xin who were injured by Wei Zhong before, as well as Mo Sen, who was captured and tried to be used as bait, were all taken to the Feng Gathering Field. Only Guo Youdao was nowhere to be seen. , no one in Zhaofeng Academy knows about it.
Wei Zhong nodded and stopped talking. His eyes passed along the boulevard, facing the main entrance of Zhaofeng Academy. A monk who can run away cannot run away from the temple. Wei Zhong believes that since those people have entered Xiafeng City, they will eventually come here.
"City Lord..." At this time, a guard came to him.
"Um?"
"Someone from Fengzhao Academy wants to negotiate with you," the guard said.
"Negotiation? Bring him here." While waiting like this, Wei Zhong didn't mind finding something to do to pass the time.
Tutor Luo Wei was quickly brought to Wei Zhong, who looked at the young tutor up and down.
Before this, he had never thought that there was anyone in Zhaofeng Academy that he needed to look at. He would maintain a certain amount of etiquette, that is, their dean Guo Youdao. A tribute to his status as one of the four major family members. Although this is becoming more and more doubtful; secondly, after all, he is the head of the same hospital. No matter how bad the Fengfeng College is, it is still one of the 432 colleges recorded on the Mainland College Rankings. It is always different from ordinary private institutions.
But now. The four students of Zhaofeng College caused him to suffer unprecedented setbacks. Under such circumstances, his attitude towards Zhaifeng College was no longer the same as before. He suspected that Fengfeng Academy had something to hide, so he did not hesitate to come and take charge of it himself. The young man in front of him seemed to have little strength. The anxiety and nervousness were clearly written on his face. He proposed to negotiate, and it seemed that he mustered up considerable courage. Wei Zhong took another sip of strong tea and said nothing, waiting for Luo Wei to speak.
Luo Weichong's soul-penetrating realm is only a second-level ability "clairvoyance". They are all at the bottom of the tutor team at Zhanfeng Academy, and they usually teach first-year basic courses. But now, it was him who stood up in the Wind-Zhaing Academy.
In the end what happened?
To be honest, the teachers and students of Zhaofeng Academy still know little about it. All I know is that Lu Ping's four students who went to participate in the Zhiling District Dianpo Conference got into some kind of trouble. No one explained to them exactly what it was.
But no matter what, it has nothing to do with them after all, right?
Luo Wei believed this. Only then did I have the courage to stand up and speak. No matter how domineering the City Lord's Mansion is, it still has to be reasonable, right? Luo Wei thinks so.
"I think we have been treated unfairly." Luo Wei said, "No matter what the reason is, I believe it has nothing to do with us here. We are tutors and students of the college, you can't treat us like this ."
Faculty mentors and students?
Luo Wei was right to the point.
The status of a college, even a low-ranking college like Zhaofeng College, is still a little bit aloof. Therefore, even though the City Lord's Mansion does not take Fengfeng Academy seriously, it is still quite cautious when it comes to matters of substance. Having copied everyone from Zhiefeng Academy, they certainly have the strength. But if it were done, it would definitely cause a sensation throughout the continent. The colleges that usually compete with each other on the most popular rankings will probably feel the same anger when faced with this kind of thing. This consequence, let alone Wei Zhong. Even the emperors of the Xuanjun Empire did not dare to bear it. After all, the academy was a subtle force. Not to mention that the four major colleges are completely outside the empire's rule.
Wei Zhong would never dare to do such a thing. But as far as the current situation was concerned, he didn't need to worry about it yet. So when Luo Wei talked about their identities, Wei Zhong just smiled: "So. You are still alive."
Strong!
Wei Zhong was not without scruples about academies, but Wei Zhong always maintained his strength in these two low-ranking academies in Xiafeng District. This answer leaves no doubt about it. Not taking any of their lives easily, in Wei Zhong's eyes, was already a sign of respect for their college.
Luo Wei opened his mouth. What else could he say about this?
"So, can you tell us what happened?"
Luo Wei could only ask them about the specific situation that they didn't know yet, so as to judge the situation. But how could Wei Zhong bother himself to explain this kind of problem? He was about to raise his hand to signal Luo Wei to be taken away when a man rushed in from the main entrance of Zhaofeng Academy and rushed straight towards the wind gathering field.
It is the color of the clothes of a secret agent of the City Lord's Mansion.
Wei Zhong recognized it at a glance. Was there anything new in such a hurry?
Wei Zhong ignored Luo Wei and waved his hand, indicating that the road was square. The spy rushed to Wei Zhong as quickly as possible. The nervous look on his face made Wei Zhong feel inexplicably panic. What bad news will it be this time?
"The target has invaded the City Lord's Mansion!" When the secret agent spoke, it was indeed the City Lord's Mansion that made everyone's expressions change. Even Luo Wei, who was still on the side, couldn't help but tremble when he heard the news.
He estimated that the target mentioned by the other party was Lu Ping and the others that the City Lord's Mansion had been targeting. He never expected these students to be so bold. The City Lord's Mansion has taken control of Fengfeng Academy, and a few of them actually dared to attack the City Lord's Mansion. This resistance is too strong, what is the difference between it and rebellion. Will Wei Zhong, the powerful city lord, show mercy in this situation because of their college status? As the ruling class, this is definitely the bottom line that they cannot tolerate!
But the secret agent's report was not finished yet. He looked at Wei Zhong's surprised and angry expression. In the end, he did not dare to hide anything. He could only bite the bullet and continue: "They... kidnapped the little city lord..."
