Two days later, teachers and students returned to the college, but they lost the excitement and joy they had when they went there.
This riot of monsters in the Wanling Mountains caused many casualties. They felt lucky to be able to come back alive, not to mention the others.
The news spread quickly in the imperial capital, causing huge waves!
…
Taoliyuan.
Several elders and teachers gathered together, and the atmosphere in the hall was very depressing.
After a while, Mr. Sun sighed.
"Uncle Master is in seclusion these days. When he comes out, I will report the matter and accept the punishment."
Everyone looked at each other and spoke to comfort each other.
"Mr. Sun, this incident is indeed an accident. I can't blame you..."
"Yes, the Wanling Mountains have been very peaceful for decades. We have not gone hunting for monsters once or twice. How could we have thought that this time - Mr. Sun, if you hadn't ordered the retreat in time, our casualties would have been even greater. , you don’t have to blame yourself anymore.”
Mr. Sun waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to say any more.
"Wrong is wrong. Today's mess must be cleaned up. Has the casualty list been released?"
Wen Yan immediately said:
"It's been sorted out. Regardless of minor injuries, fifty-seven people were seriously injured, and... fourteen people died."
Mr. Sun slowly clenched his hand.
"Why are there so many? Didn't you say eight people before?"
"Yes, there were indeed ten people who died at first. Later... the bodies of the two missing people were found by Ye Qing under a cliff somewhere."
"Where are the other two?"
Wen Yan carefully looked at Mr. Sun's expression and lowered his voice.
"...The remaining two are Chu Liuyue and Gu Mingzhu."
The mountain collapsed and the two of them were swallowed into the black vortex of the black-winged sky-swallowing python. How could they survive
Therefore, the two of them are also included in the death list.
Hearing the names of these two people, Mr. Sun was startled and was silent for a while.
"Their families will be notified of the news. In addition, our college is fully responsible for this incident and will do our best to compensate and other matters."
"yes."
…
Gu family.
Snapped!
A crisp slap broke the silence in the room.
Gu Mingfeng turned his head away after being hit, and his face quickly became red and swollen.
"How did you take care of your sister!? Why did she die when so many people were fine!? Gu Mingfeng, tell me clearly today! Otherwise, don't leave this house!"
Gu Wenhui, the head of the Gu family, was so angry that he slapped Gu Mingfeng again as if it was not enough, he slapped him again.
There were clear slap marks on Gu Mingfeng's face.
He looked at Gu Wenhui expressionlessly, just glanced at him, and then lowered his eyes.
This is what he calls his father. In his eyes and heart, there is only Gu Mingzhu.
And he was just an eyesore.
"She and I are not on the same team, and I don't know how she died."
"How dare you lie!"
Gu Wenhui was so angry that he kicked Gu Mingfeng in the heart and shouted angrily:
"Her black crystal of the black formation was used, but she didn't survive! Who else knows that she has this thing on her, besides you!? You usually hate her, but this time you robbed her. What killed her! How could I, Gu Wenhui, give birth to something worse than a beast like you!"
There was a numb pain in his chest, and Gu Mingfeng's pure color turned a little white.
Gu Wenhui used all his strength in this kick. If it weren't for the fact that he was a Xuan Master and his physical strength was not so strong, this kick might have killed Gu Mingfeng.
"I don't know how she died."
Gu Mingfeng repeated mechanically and indifferently.
"Besides, even Mr. Sun couldn't save her. Does father think that a black crystal of the black formation can save her?"
Gu Wenhui laughed angrily.
"Okay, okay! Now you still talk back! Your wings are stiff! Why aren't you the one who died!"
Why wasn't you the one who died
Gu Mingfeng's eyelids twitched fiercely, and for a moment, he felt that somewhere in his heart had completely collapsed.
Ha... I should have seen it clearly.
Who is he? He was just a despicable existence that was regarded as a stain by Gu Wenhui. Now, this so-called father even wanted to exchange his life for Gu Mingzhu's life.
Why!
Is it just because his biological mother came from a humble background, just because he is the product of Gu Wenhui's drunkenness
Gu Mingfeng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up slowly.
There was no expression on his feminine face, but his whole body was so cold that it penetrated his body.
When Gu Wenhui saw him like this, he felt even more angry:
"Get out of here! There will be no one like you in the Gu family from now on!"
Gu Mingfeng raised his head:
"Since you kicked me out, I must obey. From now on, I will not take another step into the Gu family, so as not to disturb your eyes."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Gu Wenhui slapped the table to pieces.
…
When Chu Ning received the news, he happened to be discussing important matters with Emperor Jiawen in the palace.
This matter involved too much, so Tianlu College sent someone to report the matter early in the morning.
After hearing this, Chu Ning felt like he was struck by lightning, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Seeing him like this, Emperor Jiawen only let out a long sigh, and then let him go back to rest for a few days.
Chu Ning didn't know how she walked out of the palace, or where she went.
All the surrounding scenes seemed to fade away, and he was the only one left walking alone between heaven and earth.
He had never felt that his steps were so heavy. Every step he took made him extremely tired and even painful.
But he didn't dare to stop, for fear that once he stopped, the despair and pain would completely submerge him.
"Hey-how are you walking!"
As he was walking in a daze on the street, someone passed by quickly and bumped into him.
The man spoke with a disgusted look on his face, but when he saw Ning's clothes clearly, he immediately realized that he had offended a big shot, so he quickly shut up and left.
When I left, I was still talking to the people next to me.
"...Yes! Who would have thought that Tianlu College would suffer so many casualties this time! I heard that more than a dozen people died!"
"What a pity! Those are rare talents!"
"Hey, they said that Chu Liuyue, who just passed the exam some time ago, seems to have died? She was a genius among geniuses!"
"So what? I'm dead, but I have no chance to live again..."
Chu Ning forced herself to stand up, lowered her head and walked forward.
There was a person standing in front of him.
He raised his head slowly, and it took him a while to recognize the person in front of him.
Chu Yan.
With curiosity and compassion on his face, he said word by word:
"Brother, I heard that Chu Liuyue died? Oh, what will you do if you are alone in the future?"
