The foot of Tianquan Peak.
Lu Ping and Zimu had just reached the bottom of the mountain, when two people suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain, wearing black clothes and covering their faces, and stopped them at the intersection of the mountain.
"Both of you, please stay." The two of them wore the iconic attire of Kaiyang Peak's dark warriors, but one of them still raised a waist badge in his hand and gestured to the two of them. "Kaiyang" on the front and "Dark Assistant" on the back. A waist badge with these words engraved on it is the true identity symbol of a Kaiyang Peak dark user.
"What's the matter?" Lu Ping stopped and asked, paying attention to the left and right and behind him, but he was on guard first.
"Senior Brother Bai still has a few questions to ask you two." The other party replied, his words were quite polite.
"Senior Brother Bai?" Lu Ping had no idea about this title and didn't realize who it was.
"That's Senior Brother Bai Li." Zi Mu said quickly.
"Oh." The thin figure appeared in Lu Ping's mind.
"Wait?" he asked Zimu.
"Of course." Zi Mu wiped his sweat. Listening to Lu Ping's words, can we still refuse the request of the first disciple of Kaiyang Peak? Of course, he didn't know that Lu Ping had rejected the request of the Xiafeng City Lord as a matter of course. There was no contradiction and he refused just because of simple unwillingness.
"Okay." Lu Ping respected Zi Mu's opinion and decided to wait for Bai Li to save his face. The two of them immediately stood on the side of the road. The two dark warriors from Kaiyang Peak stood by quietly and did not come to talk to them.
Zi Mu felt a little uneasy, not knowing what would happen if Bai Li found the two of them again. There were two Dark Walkers here, and it was not convenient for him to talk to Lu Ping, so he just waited.
Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long, Bai Li's figure soon appeared on the mountain road. He's not tall, but he's quick on his feet. Without using the power of soul, he walked to the two of them in a short time, and then nodded to the two dark walkers. The two men bowed slightly and disappeared into nowhere.
Bai Li stared at the two of them, more at Lu Ping. There was no emotion or anger on his face.
"You are suspicious." Bai Li said suddenly.
"Why is it suspicious?" Lu Ping's expression was calm.
"You have unknown origins and unknown strength. You caused great trouble in the Xuanjun Empire and then fled to Beidou College. I think escaping the pursuit from the Xuanjun Empire is the main reason why you are here, right?" Bai Li said, He actually already knew quite a bit about Lu Ping. Beidou Academy is famous all over the world, so it naturally has an effective intelligence system. But the origin of Lu Ping. Starting from Fengfeng Academy, he searched through many channels but could not get any information before that.
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded.
"..." Bai Li didn't expect Lu Ping to admit it simply, and for a moment he didn't know what to say next. After a long pause, he spoke calmly.
"Normally Beidou College will not reject students for such reasons, but this does not mean that the college will definitely reject the Xuanjun Empire's negotiations and hand you over." Bai Li said.
"Oh? Didn't you say that the four major colleges are not afraid of the Xuanjun Empire?" Lu Ping was confused.
"Who said it was fear? I said negotiation! Do you understand negotiation? It means the Xuanjun Empire's request to the academy." Lu Ping understood his meaning in this way, which made Bai Li, who was usually calm and cold, a little jumpy and blushed. Neck and Lu Ping argued.
"Did the Xuanjun Empire request it?" Lu Ping asked.
"..." Bai Li was speechless again. In fact, he knew very well that unless it was particularly urgent, the Xuanjun Empire would probably not make such a request. The status of the four major academies is indeed transcendent, but the three major empires that rule this land are not simple either. They will show enough courtesy and respect to the four major colleges, but they will not humiliate themselves and lose their face.
So in this matter, the Xuanjun Empire made a request to the four major colleges? That's too humbling. Make a request? That's too strong, and neither right nor left is appropriate. So Bai Li used the word "negotiation" before, but after Lu Ping misunderstood it, he still yelled "request" when explaining. It can be seen that at least in Bai Li's mind, the attitude on the surface is one thing, but in his heart, he puts the academy above the empire. I really mind that others think Beidou Academy is afraid of the three empires.
"In this case, will I be fine?" Lu Ping said.
"I said before, I don't deny the possibility of negotiation." Bai Li glared at him and said, but after saying that, he knew that this threat was of no use. Lu Ping would run to Beidou College to take refuge, so he must have calculated the stakes. The Xuanjun Empire was in a dilemma over this matter. But Beidou Academy is actually a bit tough. With the three great empires, they hope for harmony and common prosperity and do not want such contradictions. But if you don't accept it, wouldn't it show that you have some scruples about the Xuanjun Empire? Bai Li's jumping attitude already showed that this was unacceptable to Beidou College.
In this case, wouldn't it mean that Beidou Academy helped this kid shoulder this thunder? mean! Bai Li was thinking this, but he didn't know that Lu Ping had no idea how subtle and complicated the relationship was. If Guo Youdao heard his thoughts, he could answer him responsibly: That's exactly what he meant.
Guo Youdao...
Bai Li was also thinking of this name at this time.
This was Lu Ping's recommender that he found, so he also knew that this arrangement was probably planned by this person. But later, when he got to know this person, he learned part of the deeds of Zhaifeng Academy, but he could not find any of this person's roots in Beidou Academy. But those who have the qualification to be recommended by Beidou Academy must have a good background in Beidou Academy.
Guo Youdao, this name is very similar to the name of his teacher Guo Wushu. Thinking about Guo Wushu's special attention to Lu Ping, he was not unaware of something. It was just that it was inconvenient for him to ask the teacher, because regarding Lu Ping, this was a topic that Guo Wushu had rejected him. If he went to ask again, it would reveal that he was secretly investigating things that Guo Wushu asked him to ignore. Although he now had a very legitimate reason, he still didn't want to alarm his teacher until it was necessary.
"Is there anything else?" Lu Ping asked, not knowing that Bai Li was thinking a lot at this time. Seeing that he didn't speak for a while, he asked.
"I said, you are suspicious." Bai Li said.
"Can I deny it?" Lu Ping said.
"Explain clearly your origins and your problems." Bai Li said.
"Then I'm still suspicious." Lu Ping said.
"I will keep an eye on you." Bai Li said coldly.
Lu Ping smiled bitterly: "Why is it like this again? Fortunately, I'm used to it."
"What's the meaning?"
"When I was at Fengfeng Academy, the captain of our discipline team had been staring at me for three years since I was a freshman. Now, it's your turn." Lu Ping said.
Bai Li almost died of anger.
This guy actually compares himself, the first disciple of Kaiyang Peak who leads the famous Dark Walkers of Beidou Academy, with some bullshit captain of the discipline team in their mountain village academy?
If he hadn't been concerned about the teacher's special attention to Lu Ping, he would have wanted to give Lu Ping a good look right away.
Thinking about it, Bai Li suddenly raised his finger, and the two dark warriors who had just disappeared appeared again.
"Take him away from me." Bai Li stretched out his hand.
"I'll go, Brother Bai, did you point to the wrong person?" Zimu blurted out in shock. It was obvious that Bai Li had been arguing with Lu Ping, but why did the finger of blame suddenly point to him in the end? There was simply nowhere to express the injustice in Zimu's heart. (To be continued.)
