"here we go again!"
On the top of Tianquan Peak, the five people who had been sitting in the woods on the west side of the star observatory, who had been silent and extremely focused, suddenly heard someone shouting in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The other four people immediately straightened themselves up after hearing this, and their expressions became more serious.
"One, two, three... pay attention, there are many!" The voice that spoke before suddenly turned from calm to panic while counting the number of life stars it sensed. Because this time, the fate stars that were about to fall came one after another, and there were as many as four in an instant.
"There's more!" Another person shouted, and the number of falling stars didn't stop there, followed closely by five, six...
In the starry sky directly above the tree stump, six life stars flashed one after another, flickering brightly and dimly. The expressions of the five people also kept changing with the brightness of the life star, sometimes ferocious, sometimes relaxed.
"If there are two more at the same stage, we won't be able to control it." The person who spoke before finally looked at Yan Ge and said through gritted teeth.
Yan Ge nodded but said nothing.
The six life stars, together with the two that he controlled before, also flickered. But gradually, the eight destiny stars settled down one after another. They remained dim and stable on the starry sky. The five people sitting around were only slightly relieved, but they did not dare to relax at all. It is the most difficult to control the life star at the moment when the star falls. But after this difficulty is over, it is not once and for all. They need to continue to use their powers and consume their soul power to control the fate of the stars.
Eight stars, compared to two stars, of course the burden is much greater. Unfortunately, the six newly added destiny stars do not yet have the goals they were originally waiting for. After these six stars, how many more will there be? After all, the destiny-reversing custom formed by the five of them cannot completely control the starfall of the Big Dipper destiny chart. They have their limits. Originally, their mission was to ensure that the secret assassination would not be exposed due to falling stars. All they needed to control were the life stars of a few key figures. But now, before the main leader's life star has fallen, eight people have died in Tianji Peak. Is this still considered an assassination? This is simply a firefight.
At this point, would Beidou Academy still be unconscious?
The development of the assassination of Sun Shuizhao was completely beyond Yan Ge's expectations. But he didn't panic. It is impossible for such a huge plan to be foolproof in every aspect, so the most brilliant thing about his plan is that he has already made adjustments to deal with every accident in every link.
"If you can't hold on for too long, just make the moment when the stars fall as spectacular as possible." He left these words to the few people who were controlling the star chart at the observatory and left.
Tianji Peak.
On the mountain road blocked by scattered trees, six bodies fell in a pool of blood. Two of the eleven people from the two colleges of Xuanwu and Yue were slightly injured.
They couldn't give Tianji Peak's disciples any chance to send any message. So they tried their best as soon as they took action. No one among the eleven people was left behind, and they launched a surprise attack on the six Tianji Peak disciples who came to investigate with thunderous momentum. Six people were captured in an instant, at the cost of only minor injuries to two.
This result was enough for them; however, the situation was completely unmanageable. The six fallen bodies were hastily thrown into the forest beside the mountain road.
what's next?
All looked at each other.
"Qin Yue must have chased in that direction." Mu Hong pointed to the direction where the mountain forest was pushed down.
"No matter how fast we are, we can't beat him." Wu Kai said.
"So just leave it to him." Mu Hong said.
"Then let's..." Wu Kai said, looking at the mountain road in front of him.
Going up the mountain road may not be the shortest, but it is always the best way. For practitioners, the easier the road is, the faster they can go.
Further confirmation of the target's escape direction made them certain that Lu Ping and the others were going to Lucundang. The chase in the mountains and forests was left to Qin Yue, so they might as well rush along the mountain road quickly. Exposure is a foregone conclusion, and it is difficult to conceal one's whereabouts. They don't particularly care anymore.
"That's it." Mu Hong nodded.
Both sides agreed, and a group of eleven people immediately advanced along the mountain road towards Lucundang at high speed.
Lucundang is located in the middle of Tianji Peak. It is not as distinctive and unique as Tianshu Tower, Qishatang and other places. It looks like a large house with several entrances and exits.
After all, compared to the Seven Kills Hall, which only seven disciples are eligible to enter a year, the Lucundang Hall is in charge of the most basic and daily business of Beidou Academy. There are people from various peaks and colleges coming and going here every day. It can be said that it is the busiest department among the seven peaks with their respective responsibilities.
In such a busy and trivial organization, setting up a particularly complex entry and exit review will undoubtedly greatly affect efficiency. Therefore, Lucuntang has always been loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Its precautions start from the courtyard gate and gradually strengthen towards the depths of the courtyard. When we arrived at the vault where a large amount of money was stored, no one was allowed in or out.
The Seven Stars Examination was held, and all the members of the academy were intensively involved in this matter, which gave Lucundang a rare moment of leisure. In addition to the necessary guards, other students who maintain daily management operations have also gone to participate in the Seven Stars Association.
Old Watou sat at the entrance of Lucundang. He just stood there in a daze.
Those who can guard here are of course Tianji Peak's disciples, but Lao Watou looks like a concierge often seen in the market.
Old Watou himself also knew that he was getting old.
Even if cultivators can live longer than ordinary people, they will always have a destination. He entered Beidou Academy at the age of twenty-two and entered Tianji Peak at the age of twenty-seven. He also competed with his peers in the Seven Stars Examination. He also traveled across the mainland carrying the name of Beidou Academy and was respected by others.
But that was all in the past, a long, long time ago.
Now, he is old.
The glory he had has long passed. Thinking about the little fame he gained in the mainland, it has long been forgotten by people, and the brothers who shared life and death with him have also passed away one after another.
So now, he is just an old man.
Every day at sunrise, the gate of Lucundang is opened, and at night, he rests in the small concierge next to the gate. Qixing will try? He stopped participating many years ago. His life as a cultivator seemed to him to be over long ago. He had experienced great storms, and nothing would make him anxious or surprised anymore. He was now waiting for his death. That day, I was waiting for my fate to fall in the Beidou Mountains.
He no longer cared much about anything else. Including the previous noise coming from the bottom of the mountain, six disciples of Tianji Peak Lucundang immediately ran to investigate, but Lao Watou didn't even guess for a second what happened. He quietly watched the group of six people leave, and continued to sit here quietly, looking at the sky and the clouds.
Until he heard heavy footsteps coming more and more clearly from the direction of the hillside.
Lao Watou squinted his eyes and looked towards the hillside. He saw a young man, carrying one person on each side, running towards this side panting. Not far behind him, there seemed to be a light approaching him rapidly. (To be continued.)
