The dean of the Alchemy Academy was stunned and laughed: "He is bluffing you. Does this old cunning guy really think that I have accomplished nothing over the years?" As he spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he sneered: "Those Most of the alchemy masters who had ambitions for the Burning Heaven Furnace were killed by me. The rest are now kept in the Alchemy Academy by me."
Mu Qingge paused and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
It seemed that after she returned to Linchuan, she was going to have a heart-to-heart talk with Old Man Baili.
"It seems that he tricked you here." The dean of Alchemy Academy smiled.
Mu Qingge's expression said everything, and his tone was naturally affirmative.
Mu Qingge doesn't want to say more about Bailiteng now. What she cared about was the ambitious people the dean said. However, the way he hesitated to speak made her very unhappy.
Who is it that even he wants to avoid
"Ancestor!" Suddenly, the dean stood up and looked out the door in surprise.
Mu Qingge turned her eyes and saw a small figure walking in against the light.
When she walked out of the light range and came closer, her girlish appearance was revealed.
"Forsythia." Mu Qingge murmured.
She still couldn't name this non-human ancestor who looked like a girl, so she called her by her name. She was surprised, not expecting Forsythia to come.
Apparently, she was not the only one surprised.
"Have you finished talking?" Forsythia's face was tense and her eyes were a bit old-fashioned. She put her hands behind her back and walked naturally to the dean's seat and sat down.
The dean, on the other hand, stepped aside respectfully and said humbly: "Yes."
Mu Qingge looked at this scene and remembered what the dean had said before, and couldn't help but wonder, what is the relationship between his master and Forsythia
Why is Forsythia so reluctant to part with it
Lover? Uh... Mu Qingge never wanted to think of Forsythia's appearance. However, Forsythia is not a human being, so it is naturally impossible for her to be the daughter of the dean and master, unless his master is not a human being either.
Now that the father-daughter relationship has been ruled out, only the most unlikely possibilities remain.
Otherwise, how to explain what Forsythia has done over the years
"Okay, now that everything is clear, let me say something." Forsythia suddenly said.
Unexpectedly, her words actually caused the dean of the Alchemy Academy to change his expression.
Forsythia looked at Mu Qingge and said to her in a commanding tone: "Take me away."
Um
Mu Qingge suspected that there was something wrong with her hearing, so she looked at her in surprise, and then at the dean who was worried at the side. "What did you say?"
"I said, I want you to take me away." Forsythia said again.
This time, Mu Qingge heard clearly.
The dean immediately stood in front of Forsythia, kneeling on his knees regardless of his identity, and stopped him: "Ancestor, you can't!"
Forsythia said calmly: "What can't be done? The Burning Sky Furnace has returned. I can hide in it and no one will find me."
The dean was very anxious after hearing this, and said to Forsythia: "No. The Burning Heaven Furnace has been exposed, and maybe they have targeted it. If you follow, won't you automatically send it to your door?"
"If that's the case, I have to go with her. The Burning Heaven Furnace belongs to him, so how can it fall into the hands of those hawks and dogs?" Forsythia insisted.
"But..." the dean said anxiously.
Forsythia interrupted him and said to him: "Only I can unlock the seal of the Burning Sky Furnace and use it to its maximum power. I can protect her by following her."
"No!" The dean objected. He said to Forsythia: "Ancestor, you know it in your heart. To unlock the seal of Burning Sky Furnace, you need to consume a lot of strength, and the seal of Burning Sky Furnace cannot be unlocked in a short time. If you really encounter It’s too late to get on top of those people.”
"I hid in the Burning Heaven Furnace. She put away the Burning Heaven Furnace and they couldn't find it." After Forsythia fell silent, she added.
The dean still shook his head, "Even so, you can't take risks, otherwise I won't be able to explain to the master."
Forsythia gritted her teeth and her expression became ferocious. She shouted to the dean: "The Burning Sky Furnace is back. Only by following it can I possibly find his whereabouts."
"Ancestor!" The dean's voice also became louder.
His sudden drink made Forsythia quiet down.
Mu Qingge sat aside, unable to interrupt. For Forsythia wanting to leave with her, she naturally refused, but there was no chance for her to speak.
Now, it would be best for the dean to persuade her to give up her thoughts.
The dean said with a complicated expression: "The Burning Heaven Furnace has recognized its master again, which means that the connection between it and the Master has been severed. Ancestor, you know this clearly in your heart, so why should you deceive yourself? Stay, Only then can I protect you!"
Forsythia looked up at the sky and suddenly murmured: "At the beginning, he set up this formation just to protect me. As a result, he left, but trapped me in it. This is not a place to protect me, just The place where I am imprisoned.”
Formation!
'This Alchemy Academy is actually a formation! Mu Qingge's eyes narrowed slightly, and she was shocked inside.
"Hide the sky and cover the breath." Forsythia said eight words, which made Mu Qingge understand more about this formation, or the function of the Alchemy Academy.
The dean looked at Forsythia in shock. He was shocked that Forsythia actually told such a secret in front of Mu Qingge.
But, what can he do after everything has been said
"That's all, if you want to lock me up, then keep me locked up. However, I won't bother to see you in the future, so don't bother me." After Forsythia finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside.
She suddenly became so talkative, which surprised the dean.
But, in his heart, no matter what, as long as Forsythia gave up the idea of leaving.
Mu Qingge felt relieved when she heard that Forsythia changed her mind.
Suddenly, Forsythia stood in front of her, tilting her head slightly, "You promised to accompany me when you leave. Now, just follow me."
Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows. She still had some things she hadn't asked the dean clearly, so naturally she didn't want to leave now. However, looking at the dean's expression at this moment, it seemed that he no longer wanted to talk, and Forsythia was waiting aside. If she refuses, will she change her mind and insist on leaving with her
After thinking about it, Mu Qingge decided to comfort Forsythia first.
She stood up and followed Forsythia back to her splendid residence. There was no one else inside. After the two entered, the door closed automatically.
Forsythia turned to look at Mu Qingge and asked her: "Take out the Burning Heaven Furnace, I want to take a look."
Mu Qingge was stunned. She didn't expect Forsythia to make this request.
After thinking about it, she waved her hand, and the Burning Heaven Furnace landed in the open space between the two of them.
Seeing Burning Heaven Furnace again, Forsythia's eyes showed excitement, mixed with a hint of inexplicable sadness. She walked to the Burning Sky Furnace, stretched out her hand and gently stroked it back and forth. Her movements were extremely gentle and full of nostalgia.
"You go ahead and let me stay with Burning Sky Furnace all night, and you can come back to retrieve it tomorrow." Forsythia said.
Mu Qingge frowned slightly, she always felt something was wrong.
However, she couldn't tell why it was wrong. Forsythia's temperament is hard to predict. After thinking about it, Mu Qingge nodded and left.
After leaving Forsythia's yard, Mu Qingge went to find Mei Zizhong and Zhao Nanxing.
Originally, she wanted to leave in a few days, but now it seems that the sooner she leaves, the better. Therefore, she planned to leave early tomorrow morning after saying goodbye to a few people.
As for Ji Yaohua, Yingze, Ji Pianpian and Yao Xinghai.
Today, Yingze and Yao Xinghai had a fight in the Danquan Forest behind the Alchemy Academy. I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get back in two or three days, so she was too lazy to wait any longer.
Anyway, she had mentioned her departure during the dinner yesterday, so it was considered an early farewell.
After chatting with his best friend all night, Mu Qingge meditated and rested for a while at dawn before walking towards Forsythia's yard. Entering the splendid courtyard, she did not find Forsythia suspensa.
The Burning Sky Furnace is still peacefully where she left it yesterday. Mu Qingge slowed down and walked to the edge of the burning furnace. Her fingertips fell on the edge of the furnace. She thought and walked slowly around.
The Burning Sky Furnace was empty and there was no one around.
She also didn't feel any other aura present in it.
"Forsythia, forsythia?" Mu Qingge stood beside the burning furnace and shouted.
However, the yard was empty and no one responded.
She frowned and walked towards the room, "Forsythia..." She continued to shout, but there was no response.
It was only when one of her feet landed on the steps that Forsythia's voice came from the closed room: "Go away, don't disturb my sleep."
This tone...
Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows.
She didn't care about Forsythia's tone, as long as she was sure that Forsythia was in the room.
Forsythia's reaction also made her a little worried that the female devil would sneak into the Burning Furnace and leave with her.
After confirming that it was Forsythia's voice, Mu Qingge was worried and asked again: "Then I will take the Burning Sky Furnace and leave."
"Let's go, don't bother me."
Forsythia's voice came again.
At this moment, Mu Qingge felt completely relieved, retracted her stepped foot, turned around and walked back to the Burning Heaven Furnace.
She raised her hand and put the Burning Sky Furnace into the space, then strode out.
She has already said hello to everyone she should say hello to.
Therefore, when she left this time, she did not waste any more time and walked directly to the outside of the Alchemy Academy.
She didn't ask Mei Zizhong and the others to see her off because it wasn't necessary. Mu Qingge walked outside the Alchemy Academy, released Xiao Cai, and jumped on its back. Xiao Cai flapped its wings and flew towards Qingchang Mansion.
She was going to Qingchang Mansion to take the teleportation array to Yingu City, and then teleport to Xipucheng in Beizhou. Follow the route you came from, return to Xizhou, return to the Sang family, and resurrect Mulian City.
Xiao Cai flew quickly through the air, like a colorful lightning bolt.
Mu Qingge sat cross-legged on its back, her hair dancing gently. Xiaocai had blocked the strong wind for him, leaving only some gentle breeze.
'According to Xiaocai's speed, we will arrive at Qingchang Mansion in a while. 'Mu Qingge silently calculated in her heart.
More than half an hour later, she landed in Qingchang Mansion.
However, I got some bad news.
Because of the previous Alchemy Conference, too many people entered Dongzhou, causing the teleportation array to be seriously damaged and in need of repair. The time for repair is not certain.
This news made Mu Qingge make a quick decision and immediately released Xiao Cai and rushed directly to Yingu City.
This journey, even at Xiao Cai's speed, would take several days.
However, it is better than waiting endlessly in Qingchang Mansion to repair the teleportation array.
On this day, Mu Qingge has been riding Xiaocai in the air for the third day. According to the distance, she is already close to half of Yingu City. With half the distance left, she can reach Yingu City.
After being on the road for days, Mu Qingge felt a little sorry for Xiaocai.
She patted the feather crown on Xiao Cai's head and asked, "Xiao Cai, are you tired?"
Xiaocai whistled, as if to tell her that she wasn't tired.
Mu Qingge smiled slightly. Suddenly, the smile on her face froze and her eyes became sharp.
In front of her, many flying beasts were approaching quickly, and they were all full of people. Mu Qingge turned around suddenly and looked behind her. Not far behind her, there was also a group of flying beasts chasing her, and they were also full of people.
She narrowed her eyes. Flying beasts were rare in the medieval world. She had been flying for several days and had not seen many of them. Now, hundreds of them came at once, and there were people standing on top.
If he said that these people's purpose was not her, I'm afraid he wouldn't believe it himself.
There are pursuers behind and obstacles ahead.
Mu Qingge's eyes sharpened and she ordered Xiao Cai: "Go around."
Xiao Cai let out a loud cry, turned her direction, and flew away from the gap between the two sides. It seems that it also knows that there are bad guys chasing it, so it speeds up even more.
Behind it, two groups of people gathered, adjusted their direction, and continued to chase Mu Qingge.
'Who is coming after her? Could it be that it’s for the Burning Heaven Furnace! Mu Qingge's eyes flashed with a cold light, and his lips pressed into a tight line.
After the detour, the direction has shifted.
Xiaocai took Mu Qingge and rushed into the thick fog. Mu Qingge squinted his eyes and looked at the ground. He only saw uneven and weird caves on the ground, stretching all over the ground.
And these fogs emerge from certain caves.
This is... Jiuquan Cave!
Mu Qingge's eyes flashed and she ordered Xiao Cai: "Xiao Cai, get down!"
Xiaocai swooped down, and behind it, the flying beasts also swooped down and entered the thick white mist...
