As soon as he said this, the whole hall fell into silence.
In fact, many people were not aware of this problem before, because their attention was focused on the venerable artifact.
At this time, they suddenly came back to their senses when they heard Elder Hua Feng asking questions.
-yes!
This is indeed an extremely important question!
The college's barrier has always been heavily guarded, especially today. After knowing that the people from the Golden Wing Sect were chasing Fangzhou, the college sent several elders to reinforce it, and on the other hand, strengthened the guarding of the barrier.
No one is allowed to enter or leave the barrier at will.
But Chu Yue came out inexplicably!
For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at Chu Liuyue!
Their eyes are different, but they are all full of suspicion and scrutiny.
The atmosphere was stagnant, as if even the surrounding air was condensed.
Elder Hua Feng stared at her closely.
"The elders on guard said that at that time, they did not notice any abnormal fluctuations."
You must know that all students in the college need to report for instructions when entering or leaving the barrier.
If they don't report it, the black jade tokens they carry will also issue a warning and leave evidence when they try to pass through the barrier.
But—Chu Yue didn’t!
It was as if he suddenly appeared outside the barrier, and he penetrated all the obstacles and rushed to Rong Xiu's side!
If it were a powerful person, all of this could be explained.
But he is only in the middle of the seventh level!
"Only the Xuanshi elders responsible for guarding the academy's barrier can open it without causing any disturbance. And you - how did you do it?"
A new student who has just entered the academy less than a month ago has such a method, how can he not make people suspicious!
Chu Liuyue's body tensed up, her eyes slightly lowered, looking at the ground in front of her, but her mind was spinning crazily.
When she was about to go out at first, she was only worried about Rong Xiu and didn't think much about it.
After she woke up just now, she knew that this matter would definitely be found out by the elders and interrogated carefully.
Part of the worry in her heart came from this.
How to explain this
Could it be said that she learned it from her own incomplete memory
That’s even more unclear!
She used to be a student of Lingxiao Academy, otherwise she wouldn't have those images in her mind.
However, she herself couldn't remember what happened at that time, so how could she explain it to these people
What's more, there are not many students who know how to open the barrier.
Her identity is even more suspicious.
There was deathly silence. You could hear a needle drop in the hall, and even your breathing became tense.
Even Elder Wan Zheng frowned tightly.
"Chu Yue, you... just tell me what you know about what is going on."
After all, he is his own student, so if he says he doesn't feel sorry for her or isn't partial to her, that would definitely be a lie.
Even now, the student looked suspicious, but he still wanted to believe him.
"As long as you say it, Master will believe you."
Chu Liuyue was stunned and raised her eyes.
Elder Wan Zheng sat on the chair, holding one hand on the armrest, and put the other hand in front of him, clenched into a fist.
You can see the tension and worry in his heart.
But the way he looked at her, although somewhat helpless, was more gentle and tolerant.
Chu Liuyue felt warm in her heart.
"Wan Zheng, whether you believe him or not is not the key now."
Elder Guanhe, who had been silent for a while, spoke again.
"I just said there is something wrong with this kid, you still don't believe me? If he is really just an ordinary mid-level seventh-level warrior and an ordinary student, how could he be able to do these things!"
"Wan Zheng, even if he is your apprentice, you still have to keep your eyes peeled!"
Elder Wan Zheng clenched his fists tighter, but just looked at Chu Liuyue.
Chu Liuyue understood that everyone was waiting for her explanation!
She took a deep breath and opened her lips slightly—
"I taught her."
Before she could say anything, Rong Xiu next to her spoke first.
Chu Liuyue raised her eyes in shock, only to see him standing with his hands behind his back, his expression calm and calm, and there was even a faint smile on his lips.
Rong Xiu's words immediately caused the silent hall to become noisy!
The elders looked at each other, obviously shocked by these words.
Elder Boyan's face, which had always been very calm, finally showed a hint of shock and disbelief.
"Rong Xiu, what did you say!? You said - you taught him!?"
Facing everyone's questioning gaze, Rong Xiu nodded calmly.
"good."
Wow—
Rong Xiu's answer was only two words, but it was like a bowl of cold water poured into a frying pan! It immediately caused an uproar!
"Rong Xiu, what do you mean by this?!"
Elder Guan He finally stood up uncontrollably and stared at the two of them closely.
Rong Xiu didn't seem to realize how much impact his words had on everyone present. He smiled slightly and said:
"I can open the academy barrier. All the elders should know this, right? I taught her, and she can naturally open it too. Is there any wonder in this?"
What's weird
Of course it’s weird everywhere!
Rong Xiu is the absolute leader in the academy. He was indeed able to open the barrier a few years ago, but the key to the problem is not this!
"Guan He, please sit down first and don't be so excited."
Elder Boyan raised his hand.
Elder Guan He could only sit down angrily and looked at the two of them deeply.
He wanted to see what else these two people could say!
"Rong Xiu."
After all, Elder Boyan is the most senior person here, so it is indeed most appropriate for him to ask.
"If you can open the barrier, that's your business. But the key is, why do you want to teach Chu Yue, what is your relationship? Also, when did you teach him?"
He paused.
"It's actually only been about a month since you came back to the academy this time. Not long after you arrived, you left with Elder Shufeng and others. Logically speaking, you and Chu Yue should have nothing to do with each other, right?"
Except for that day at the beginning of the month, the two people had met, and there seemed to be no chance to interact with each other at other times.
Unless these two people have known each other for a long time!
"Chu Yue. We are indeed old acquaintances."
Rong Xiu did not deny it and gave a vague answer.
Everyone was quiet for a moment.
Elder Boyan frowned:
"Why didn't you—"
Halfway through, he suddenly became speechless.
correct.
That day on the Donghuang Bell Tower, Rong Xiu seemed to have glanced at Chu Yue a few more times.
He didn't take it to heart at that time. After all, Chu Yue was accepted as a disciple by Elder Wan Zheng and was the focus of everyone's attention.
Rong Xiu took a closer look and found nothing wrong.
But now that I think about it, it turns out that they have known each other for a long time!
"I taught her this before she came to the academy. I thought it would take her a long time to learn it, but I didn't expect that she understood it so quickly."
With that said, Rong Xiu turned around and showed an appreciative smile to Chu Liuyue.
"well done."
She is indeed the woman he loves.
