Chapter 259: Hand over the strange fire?
"terrible."
On the seventh floor of the tower, Lin Mu's face turned pale and he was still frightened.
The moment before leaving the sealed door, he clearly sensed a terrifying spiritual storm coming from there.
If he were a little slower, the power of the soul that entered the seal would definitely collapse again.
Although a burst of soul power would not endanger his life, successive soul collapses would still cause damage to his soul.
"I must get that artifact and the origin of the black turtle."
Soon, Lin Mu's mind returned to firmness, "But before I deal with that mysterious man next time, I must know something about him."
"I have also read a lot of books in the college library. There is no record of the origin of the Seven Star Tower or its owner. This mysterious man has never mentioned it."
"If we want to find clues, it seems we can only go to Xing Lao. Xing Lao has lived for nearly a thousand years. Regarding those ancient deeds, it is best to ask him."
Full of doubts, and with the serious injuries on his body, it was not advisable to delay for too long, Lin Mu stopped delaying, got up and walked towards the tower level above.
But as soon as he left the tower door, Lin Mu had to stop.
"Lin Mu, you are so arrogant. You actually made us wait outside for three days."
The senior officials of the college, headed by Yu Zhengchu, were standing at the door, and Zhou Fuden was the one who spoke.
They really waited for three days and did not dare to relax. The strange fire in Lin Mu was really important and could not be careless.
Lin Mu frowned slightly, then unfolded his brows and saluted everyone: "Students have met all the deans."
After that, he looked at Zhou Fuden and sneered: "Vice President Zhou, I have been in the tower for the past three days and know nothing about things outside. Judging from what you mean, am I the one who asked you to wait? "
"you……"
Zhou Fuchen's words were stagnant for a moment, and then his face was full of anger, "What is your attitude? Do you have any moral character of respecting teachers?"
"Before you say this, you have to ask yourself whether you are a bit of a teacher."
Lin Mu has already demonstrated his talent and strength. Even the vice-dean can't do anything to him easily. Naturally, he is not afraid of Zhou's ups and downs.
"Asshole, look at this, this kind of person is worthy of being a student."
Zhou Fuchen shouted sharply.
It's a pity that not only Lin Mu doesn't care about him, but the heads of the houses present also don't have the heart to listen to what he has to say.
"Okay, Brother Fushen, don't forget the main purpose of our trip, and don't get hung up on these side issues."
The master of Tianxuan Academy waved his hand, looked at Lin Mu, and said with a smile, "Lin Mu, how was your gain from entering the tower this time?"
"Okay."
Lin Mu said coldly.
He had actually guessed the purpose of these people.
Now the biggest secret and most valuable thing he has exposed to the world is nothing more than strange fire.
"It doesn't matter if you fail."
Master Tianxuan chuckled, "After all, it's a miracle that you can break into the fifth floor. If you fail this time, you will still have time to break through in the future."
"The master of the hospital said so. It seems that Lin Mu really failed."
"There's no need to guess, just look at Lin Mu's injuries."
"I told you before that the sixth floor is so easy to break into. His ability to enter the fifth floor and gain a glimpse of the mysteries is a tribute to his ancestors."
"You can't blame Lin Mu. The difficulty above the fifth level is very difficult for people to predict. Lin Mu's failure was expected."
"Even if he stays on the fifth floor, he is still enough to stand out among the heroes in the academy. After all, besides him, Bei Suye, who has the highest number of towers, has only reached the fourth floor."
The onlookers present also started talking.
At this time, Lin Mu was in a mess and covered in blood, and everyone thought he had failed.
Lin Mu was noncommittal about this. Although he had broken into the seventh floor and even saw the eighth floor that the world didn't know about, there was no need to explain this to others.
"I just finished breaking through the tower. I am seriously injured and need to go back for recuperation. If you, the deans, have nothing else to do, the students will leave."
Immediately, he cupped his hands and turned around to leave.
"Stop."
Zhou Fuchen's cold shout sounded, "You can leave if you want, but you have to hand over the strange fire first."
Lin Mu stopped and narrowed his eyes: "Hand over the strange fire?"
"good."
Zhou Fuchen looked at Lin Mu with a hint of pride, "The news that you are carrying the strange fire has been released. Considering your lack of strength, the college is willing to help you keep it temporarily. When you have the strength to protect the strange fire in the future, we will keep the strange fire for you." The fire is returned to you.”
He felt that Lin Mu would definitely succumb to the pressure from the senior leaders of the academy.
Lin Mu's expression did not change, and he glanced at the senior leaders of the academy: "Do you, the academy masters and elders, think so too?"
"What Dean Zhou said is indeed reasonable."
"Lin Mu, although your talent is amazing, you are still young after all. Don't lose your life because of strange fire."
"If you give the strange fire to the academy, you can also make some contributions to the academy..."
All the senior officials spoke one after another. Except for Yu Zhengchu and Liu Nanshan who had not yet expressed their stance, they all agreed with Zhou Fushen's words and asked Lin Mu to hand over the strange fire.
If Lin Mu gives the strange fire to the academy, they will all benefit, so why not do it.
"What if I don't want to hand it over?"
Lin Mu said calmly.
The senior executives were stunned when they heard this. They really didn't expect Lin Mu to answer like this.
"If I don't want to hand it over, does the college have to steal the alien fire?"
Lin Mu continued to ask.
"Lin Mu, don't misunderstand me."
Yu Zhengchu quickly waved his hand and said, "After all, the strange fire is your personal property. If you are unwilling to hand it over, the college will naturally not be able to take it away. However, the college still recommends that you do not hold the strange fire personally, as it is very dangerous."
Now in full public view, with countless students watching, how could he dare to say that the college wanted to steal the alien fire?
Once that happens, the top management of the college will lose their prestige, and the students will all be in danger.
Moreover, once the reputation spread that even students' private treasures were taken by force, Seven Star Academy would not be far away from being disbanded.
"That's good."
Lin Mu withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "I am capable of guarding the strange fire myself, so I won't bother you all."
"Of course, if anyone is still unwilling and wants to snatch it away, I welcome it at any time."
After that, he ignored the reactions of the senior officials of the academy, shook his sleeves, turned around and walked towards Qixingyuan.
Looking at Lin Mu's back, the senior leaders of the colleges all looked at each other in confusion.
"so cool."
"This is simply treating the top leaders of the college as if they were nothing."
"He is worthy of being the most popular person in our Seven Stars Academy right now. His courage is unparalleled by anyone."
"If anyone is still unwilling and wants to snatch it away, I welcome it at any time. These words are clearly meant for the senior leaders of the college. They are so domineering."
Lin Mu's demeanor made all the students around him envious.
That free and plain back figure also became domineering in the eyes of everyone.
The students were amazed and envious, and the college senior officials were furious.
"Look, I said he was disrespectful and there was nothing wrong with him at all."
Zhou Fushen's face turned blue.
