"Master, I originally wanted to absorb the essence of a few more people and improve my cultivation. However, I was discovered and severely injured. Fortunately, the master tried to heal my wounds. Yun Li is very grateful."
"Don't act impulsively in the future."
The man in black's cloak covered half of his face. Su Yixin couldn't see clearly what he looked like, but from the sound of his voice, he seemed to be very young.
Su Yixin and Baili Xingcai were in a dilemma for a while.
I don’t know if I should show up at this meeting.
If they can beat him, of course everyone will be happy and capture these two to deal with each other. Although the ghost Yun Li is not convincing, at least the man in black can be regarded as half a person, so it is not just a ghost to fool things.
But I can't beat him.
It's not cost-effective for her and her cousin to stay here.
After five breaths, Su Yixin decided to withdraw.
The two of them carefully left the forest and returned to Songyang Academy with their swords.
Su Su, who had been silent all the way, suddenly emerged from the blood jade: "Yixin, I can feel that person's cultivation is higher than yours."
"Um?"
Su Yixin said in surprise: "You mean, the man in black might have discovered us?"
Su Su nodded.
Su Su had the strength of the Ghost King before. After being seriously injured by Su Yixin, he stayed in the blood jade to heal his injuries. His cultivation level has been restored to a certain extent. With the Ghost King's perception, he can never make mistakes.
"Besides, when the man in black heals the ghost, he will definitely find the soul-chasing talisman you planted."
"The man in black could find the soul-chasing talisman, but he didn't take any action. Why is this?" Baili is an expert, and he is puzzled.
For a moment, Su Yixin couldn't tell what the purpose of the man in black was!
They returned to the academy near dawn.
Not only Gu Qingjue and the others were sitting at the table, but Zhang Captou was also there.
"Yixin, are you okay?"
Gu Qingjue saw Su Yixin coming back and rushed over without saying a word.
He held Su Yixin's hand and carefully checked whether she was injured. After waiting for her for a day and a night, if Luo Wushang hadn't broken through the cultivation level in the Yunshan Secret Realm last time, and his perception of Su Yixin was strengthened, he would have known about it even though they were hundreds of kilometers apart. Whether the person was safe or not, he had already rushed out of the academy to find someone.
Last night, Gu Qingjue decided to go back to this school dormitory because he actually wanted to test his suspicions.
If Su Yixin was not here, Gu Qingjue would not let the three of them take this risk, but with Su Yixin and Xingcai's cousin here, safety was guaranteed, so he acted much bolder.
But all of this must be based on Su Yixin's safety.
They were only in the academy. Even if the person they lured out was extremely skilled, he would not be able to go on a killing spree in the academy opened by the imperial court.
But outside the academy, Su Yixin's safety is not guaranteed.
I want to tell Su Yixin not to do this next time, but there are many people here, so I will keep this sentence in my stomach.
Let's have a good talk with Su Yixin when we are two people together.
Su Yixin and Gu Qingjue have been together for more than half a year.
Except for the two who tested each other at the beginning, they were honest with each other later on.
She also knew that this time, she did not follow the initial instructions to take care of Qing Jue.
In order to find the person behind the ghost, he used the soul-chasing talisman without authorization and chased him so far in one go.
Thinking about it, I was really scared for a while.
Su Yixin told Gu Qingjue in detail what happened after chasing him out.
After listening to Su Yixin's description, Gu Qingjue found out the suspicious points in it very keenly.
"Didn't that ghost escape to Xixia territory?"
"No."
Su Yixin shook her head: "It's at the junction of Xixia and Song Dynasty. After waiting there for a day, the man in black showed up."
Baili Xingcai asked: "Is there any problem with this? It must be the fault of the Xixia people. Isn't it obvious?"
Su Yixin also felt that what happened this time was closely related to the Xixia people.
Gu Qingjue shook his head.
"If it was really the work of the Xixia people, why did it stop at the junction of the Song Dynasty and Xixia after it had fled so far?"
Gu Qingjue said this.
Li Duanyuan nodded in agreement: "Zi Yuan is right. If it really wants to get rid of your tracking, it would be safer to enter the Xixia Kingdom directly."
"You mean they are not Xixia people at all, but they made us mistakenly think that this thing was done by Xixia people?"
Su Yixin thought of what Su Su said and said, "I feel like the man in black knew that my cousin and I were nearby, but he didn't make any move, as if he wanted to let us go."
"Then it makes even less sense."
Captain Zhang said: "Since I discovered that you are following them, it would be safest to get rid of you."
"Captain Zhang, can you write me a copy of the list you selected yesterday?"
"no problem."
Agent Zhang directly took out the list: "You are originally assisting in handling the case, so you should take this list first."
Yesterday, Agent Zhang screened the list of students who had had quarrels with Shen Shaorong in the past three years since he came to Songyang Academy.
This list is just the opposite.
They are some students who have been very close to Shen Shaorong in the academy in the past three years.
As for this list, Gu Qingjue asked Agent Zhang to make it quickly.
Even now, Captain Zhang still doesn't understand why Gu Qingjue wants to investigate a student who is close to Shen Shaorong.
"Okay, everyone has been waiting here all night, let's go and rest first."
"Okay, I'm really sleepy."
Captain Zhang quickly stood up, stretched out, yawned and left the school building.
Li Duanyuan and others also yawned again and again.
He got up and went to his bed, pulled down the bed curtains and fell asleep.
Gu Qingjue took Su Yixin's hand and came to the courtyard.
Before Gu Qingjue could speak, Su Yixin readily admitted her mistake: "Brother Jue, I promise you, I won't do this again."
Looking at Su Yixin who raised three fingers.
Gu Qingjue sighed helplessly.
"I'm just worried about your safety, and I don't mean to blame you."
"I know."
Su Yixin pointed to the list in Gu Qingjue's hand and said, "Did you find something?"
Gu Qingjue nodded and took Su Yixin's hand to his dormitory.
Su Yixin noticed that the student dormitory was very quiet today, and she did not see other students coming in or out.
"Yesterday, Master Sun gave all the students a day off. Those who are close to the academy all went home on their own. Those who are far away are all protected by the academy's guards. This is also to protect the safety of the students."
Su Yixin nodded.
If only Shen Shaorong's murder had occurred, the situation would have been under control.
But last night, a ghost appeared in the academy with the intention of killing people.
No matter how much Sun Shanchang cares about the reputation of the academy, he cannot make fun of the lives of his students.
Entering Gu Qingjue's school, Su Yixin recognized at a glance which bed belonged to Gu Qingjue.
When Gu Qingjue gets up, he will make the bed neatly and fold the corner of the quilt covering it in half.
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, what exactly did you find?"
