Chapter 125 Rarely Confused But soon, Chu Chengzhou completely restrained this trace of murderous intention.
The Wuhun Palace is powerful, but it is not something he can deal with right now. Salas is a senior member of the Wuhun Palace. Once he is killed, it will be tantamount to working with the Wuhun Palace. Even if he guesses that the assassin is from the Salas faction For the time being, he could only pretend that he didn't know.
Suddenly, Chu Chengzhou rolled his eyes and said: "Dai Mubai, we had some grudges before, and you are the prince of the Star Luo Empire, so you will definitely speak for the Star Luo Empire. Now Lord Salas is here, you Don’t throw dirty water on Wuhun Palace!”
Tonight's blame must be placed on one of the forces. Since he can't afford to offend the real culprit of the Spirit Hall, he can only blame it on the Star Luo Empire, which is destined to be hostile.
"Huh? Are you Prince Xingluo?"
Suddenly, Salas became energetic and interested.
This young man is the Prince of Xingluo, and he has a grudge against Chu Chengzhou? This is really great!
If the two have a grudge, then there is a motive for committing evil. He has the strength and the motive. Just before Cang Xiong died, he passed the blame to the Star Luo Empire. Otherwise, I will completely put this blame on the Star Luo Empire now. Already?
The Star Luo Empire is not a good thing. It is a stumbling block for the great Spirit Hall to unify the continent and bring peace to countless people on the continent. It is not impossible for such an evil force to assassinate the enemy's genius soul master. !
Furthermore, compared to the murderer coming from Wuhun Palace, Tiandou Empire and Qibao Glazed Sect would probably be more willing to see the murderer come from Star Luo Empire, right?
After all, a mere Chu Chengzhou is not worthy of the Heaven Dou Empire and Qibao Glazed Sect facing off against their powerful Wuhun Palace. As for the Star Luo Empire, the two empires are already hostile and have deep old grudges between them. Very well, even if you guess that Xing Luo didn't do this, it doesn't matter if he is blamed for it.
At this time, seeing Salas coming, the student dormitory building was in ruins, and several students died, Liu Erlong ignored his sadness and walked over.
"Dean Liu has come just in time. Do you know the identity of this person?"
Salas pointed at Dai Mubai and asked Liu Erlong.
"Your Excellency Salas, Mubai is the Prince of Xingluo, I know this.
However, he is just an ordinary prince of the Star Luo Empire, and he cannot command a Soul Douluo and two Soul Saints. I believe that the conspiracy of the Star Luo Empire this time has nothing to do with him! "
Liu Erlong said without hesitation.
Flanders had told him about Dai Mubai a long time ago. In Liu Erlong's view, Dai Mubai, the prince who gave up the competition for the throne of Xingluo, was not so capable of commanding such a powerful assassin. It is even more suspected that the assassin came from Wuhun Palace than from Star Luo Empire.
It's just that several of my students failed, and the student dormitory building was in ruins. For such a big loss, someone has to pay for it, right? Without strong evidence pointing the finger at Wuhun Palace, Wuhun Palace would definitely not compensate her for her losses. And before the assassin died, he pointed the finger at Star Luo Empire. There was no other way. The blame could only be placed on Xingluo Empire. The Luo Empire is here to carry it.
"Well, Dean Liu is right, everything is a conspiracy of the Star Luo Empire!"
Hearing this, Salas nodded with satisfaction.
Liu Erlong's words undoubtedly took Dai Mubai out, but Salas didn't care. He didn't take it seriously as a mere Star Luo prince, as long as the Star Luo Empire took the matter behind.
"Dean Liu, don't worry. It's the Soul Master Competition right now, and the Star Luo Empire dares to assassinate outstanding participating students. As a member of the competition organizing committee, I cannot sit idly by and watch. I will report this matter to His Majesty the Pope. , then Wuhun Palace will seek justice for Lan Ba Academy!"
Salas promised Liu Erlong with a serious face.
'Good guy!As expected of the Platinum Bishop of Wuhun Palace! '
Seeing Salas shouting to catch the thief, Chu Chengzhou's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
Sure enough, there are many eight-ring soul masters in Wuhun Temple. As an auxiliary soul master, Saras can stand out and become one of the four platinum bishops, and also serves as the master of Tiandou Temple. of.
"Thank you, Lord Salas!"
Although he felt disgusted, Liu Erlong still thanked him.
With Wuhun Palace as a guarantee, the matter of asking Star Luo Empire to compensate for the loss is basically stable. Otherwise, Lan Ba Academy itself and Tiandou Empire would be sure that it would be done regardless of whether Xing Luo did it or not. Will be ignored directly.
Not long after, a luxurious carriage drove into Lanba Academy, escorted by dozens of Tiandou Royal Knights.
The royal representative appointed by Emperor Xueye, Prince Xue Qinghe, arrived.
"Brother Xian, I heard that you were assassinated by an assassin from the Star Luo Empire. Is it serious?"
Qian Renxue, the 'good big brother' whom I just met today, asked with concern on his face.
"Brother Xue, thanks to the dean and the others who fought hard to hold off the assassin tonight, and because the royal guest arrived in time, I was not injured. Unfortunately, several classmates were killed, and the dormitory building of the college also collapsed."
Chu Chengzhou shook his head sadly.
The sadness on his face was not fake. After all, they were all students in the same academy. Although they didn't have much friendship on weekdays, he really felt a little sorry that he lost his life because of himself.
"Hmph~, this Xingluo Empire is getting more and more wanton! They even dare to come to Tiandou City to commit murder, and even assassinate the wise brother.
Don’t worry, dear brother, my father is very dissatisfied with this bad behavior, and the empire will seek justice for you and Lanba Academy! "
Qian Renxue said with relief.
Although this matter was most likely done by her own Spirit Hall, after all, she knew a little bit about Salas's character, but she was the young master of the Spirit Hall, and she couldn't stand with her butt crooked. Naturally, the blame had to go to the Star Luo Empire. Button on the head.
"Thank you, Brother Qinghe!"
Chu Chengzhou's face was full of gratitude, but in his heart he wanted to let this little girl kneel down and sing "conquer" from now on.
Maybe this matter has nothing to do with Qian Renxue, and is mostly Salas's own decision, but who makes her the young master of Wuhun Hall?It would be unreasonable not to ask Qian Renxue to collect some interest.
Later, Qian Renxue approached Liu Erlong, expressed concern and condolences to Lanba College on behalf of the royal family, and promised to seek justice for Lanba College.
More than an hour later, after understanding what happened and the loss of Lanba Academy, Salas and Qian Renxue left Lanba Academy without staying long.
"Here, boy Chu, this is your trophy."
After both parties left the academy, Flanders handed Chu Chengzhou a right arm soul bone glowing with blue light.
Seeing this right arm soul bone, Chu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows.
"This was caused by the Ice Bird Soul Saint you killed."
Flender explained.
"Dean Flanders, give this soul bone to Dean Erlong. The loss to our college tonight is not small."
After thinking about it, Chu Chengzhou shook his head.
This ice attribute right arm soul bone looked to be less than [-] years old, and it only had the right forearm, so it was not in complete condition, so he couldn't look down on it.
Soul bones that were less than ten thousand years old would not be of much help to him after being refined.
Although he could upgrade the soul bones while on AFK, he would not have to worry about the problem of low AFK soul bones in the future, but useless soul bones with uncertain effects of soul bone skills were not worth wasting his precious AFK slots.
After upgrading the soul ring, he failed to notice an increase in soul power, so he must have done the same thing when upgrading the soul bone.
It can be said that even if he has a plug-in, the basic age of the soul bone is also very important. After all, older soul bones contain more energy, and the soul power will increase even more after refining.
Unless the soul bone skill is very effective, instead of upgrading such useless soul bones, it is better to wait until the future becomes stronger and go to the sea to hunt ferocious sea soul beasts to collect a set of top-quality soul bones.
On the mainland, 10-year-old soul beasts and even ferocious beasts are rare, but it is different in the vast sea.
It is said that the Star Dou Forest is a paradise for soul beasts, but in Chu Chengzhou's view, the living space is larger, and the sea is where few soul masters go to hunt.
After all, even the Star Dou Forest only covers an area about the same size as the Balak Kingdom, and the vast sea area is much larger than the entire Douluo Continent.
Of course, the reason why Chu Chengzhou didn't want this soul bone was not only because he didn't like it, but also because he was embarrassed to ask for it.
The target of the assassin was himself. Not only did several classmates die, but a dormitory building in the college collapsed. However, in the end, he made a fortune, which was a bit unreasonable.
"That's good too."
After some hesitation, Flanders nodded.
Who suffered the greatest loss from what happened tonight, apart from the students who died, was Liu Erlong, the dean of the college, who suffered the greatest loss.
If this soul bone is sold, it will be enough to make up for the financial losses of the college, or even far exceed it.
What was turned into ruins was just an ordinary dormitory building, not a mimicry training ground that cost a lot of money to build. The price of a thousand-year soul bone far exceeded the cost of a dormitory building.
After collecting the bodies of the deceased students, Liu Erlong and others counted the number of students, confirmed the list of the deceased students, and then directed everyone to set up tents on the playground.
The student dormitory building collapsed, and most of the students had no place to sleep, so they had to make do with tents.
It is worth mentioning that Ma Hongjun and Oscar were very enthusiastic when helping students who had no dormitory to sleep in to set up tents, and were even more motivated than the students who needed tents.
Why are these two young men so enthusiastic?
It's the middle of the night now, and all the students were sleeping before!The incident happened suddenly. When they evacuated the dormitory building, most of the students were disheveled, including many female students who ran out of the dormitory building in a hurry and were only wearing close-fitting clothes.
After all, there are only a few students who have storage soul guides. Naturally, the two young men enthusiastically helped the young, beautiful, and graceful female students.
There is strength in numbers. After solving the students' accommodation problem, everyone living in the teacher's dormitory went back to their homes and looked for their mothers. After all, there was a competition tomorrow.
"Eh? Xiao Wu, why don't you go back to sleep?"
At the door of the dormitory, Chu Chengzhou, who was about to go in to rest, asked in surprise as he looked at Xiao Wu who was following closely behind him.
"Go in!"
Xiao Wu did not answer Chu Chengzhou's question, pointed to the door of Chu Chengzhou's dormitory, and said coldly.
Seeing this, Chu Chengzhou immediately had a bad premonition.
Bracing himself and opening the door, Chu Chengzhou pulled Xiao Wu into the dormitory.
"Boom-"
The door slammed shut.
"Uh, Xiao Wu, what do you want to do?"
Looking at Xiao Wu with a bad expression, Chu Chengzhou asked weakly.
"Hmph~! Leniency will be given if you confess, strict if you resist. Mr. Chu, please tell me honestly, why were you with Rongrong before?"
With her left hand on her waist and her right hand pointing at Chu Chengzhou, Xiao Wu asked unceremoniously.
Previously, Xiao Wu did not ask in front of other people to save Chu Chengzhou and her little sisters, but now that there were only two of them, Xiao Wu was not polite.
Sure enough, the bad premonition came true! "Xiao Wu, do you believe me when I say that Rongrong and I are innocent?"
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Chengzhou argued.
"Innocent? I believe you, you idiot! Tell me, when did you and Rongrong get along?"
Chu Chengzhou: "."
"Don't talk, right? Okay, let me guess, did you go behind my back when we were in Shrek Academy? No wonder when I saw Rongrong running back to the house with a red face, did you follow me? What is she doing in the illusion?"
At this moment, Xiao Wu's mouth was like a machine gun, spewing out facts one after another that Chu Chengzhou could not quibble with.
As early as the beginning, Xiao Wu noticed that there was something fishy between the two of them, but she checked and found that her little sister Ning Rongrong was still a pure girl, so she gave up the idea.
But after seeing Chu Chengzhou and Ning Rongrong together, she didn't think so.
You know, her dormitory is closer to Chu Chengzhou's dormitory than Ning Rongrong's.
After noticing the movement outside, she immediately put on her clothes and ran out.
Ning Rongrong's reaction speed was definitely not as fast as hers, but she was there a lot earlier. Needless to say, the two of them must have been together kind of shameful deeds did this lonely man and woman do in the middle of the night? As for the little sister Ning Rongrong, she is still a pure girl?It was not like she had never experienced Chu Chengzhou's fantasy.
Maybe the body of the little sister is still pure for the time being, but the soul must have taken the shape of someone long ago! The house was stolen, which made Xiao Wu very angry.
"This is it."
Opening his mouth, Chu Chengzhou didn't know how to argue.
"Hmph~, tell me, what are you going to do?"
With a cold snort, Xiao Wu shouted sharply.
'what to do?Of course we do it together! '
But Chu Chengzhou didn't dare to say this to his face.
Suddenly, Chu Chengzhou had an idea and used his unique illusion skills to pull Xiao Wu's consciousness into the illusion.
When you are happy, you can also forget unpleasant things.
At first, the angry Xiao Wu was quite resistant, but after a while, she selectively forgot these unpleasant things and immersed herself in happiness.
In the fantasy world, Chu Chengzhou, who was having fun with Xiao Wu, suddenly heard a knock on the door in reality.
After his spiritual power was released, Chu Chengzhou discovered that it was already dawn without realizing it, and Ning Rongrong was knocking on the door.
Immediately, Chu Chengzhou took Xiao Wu out of the illusion.
"Senior Chu, Dean Erlong saw that you were not here and asked me to call you. We have a competition in the morning!"
Ning Rongrong shouted through the door.
"Got it, here we come!"
Chu Chengzhou replied
"Rongrong?"
Hearing the voice of her little sister outside the door, Xiao Wu couldn't help but feel a taste of it. She wrinkled her face, took Chu Chengzhou's arm and took a bite.
"Sigh~"
Suddenly, Chu Chengzhou took a breath of air, having made a negligible contribution to climate warming across the continent.
"Xiao Wu, I love you, can we let go first?"
Chu Chengzhou made a quibble.
"Hmph~, you big radish! Are you saying in your heart that you also love Rongrong right now?"
Xiao Wu let go of Chu Chengzhou's arm and said politely.
"Ahem, that's it. Well, Xiao Wu, you are the eldest sister, so you must take the lead."
Chu Chengzhou said earnestly.
"Go to hell you!"
Xiao Wu was furious and immediately punched Chu Chengzhou's left eye socket with a right hook.
"Bam—"
"what--"
Hearing the crashes and screams coming from the dormitory, Ning Rongrong outside the door was a little confused.
On the second floor of the college cafeteria, Liu Erlong and others and the Lanba Academy team were eating breakfast.
Last night, Cang Xiong blew himself up and destroyed the student dormitory building. Fortunately, the college cafeteria was not affected. Otherwise, the students of Lanba College would not only have no place to sleep, but also a place to eat.
"Eh? Boss Chu, what's wrong with your eyes?"
While chewing a big meat bun with gusto, Ma Hongjun suddenly noticed that Chu Chengzhou's left eye was quite swollen, and asked in surprise.
"I accidentally fell it~"
Putting down the half-drinking bowl of fragrant meat porridge, Chu Chengzhou glanced at Xiao Wu who was as if nothing had happened, and Ning Rongrong who was secretly covering her mouth and snickering, Chu Chengzhou said expressionlessly.
"Accidentally dropped?"
Ma Hongjun was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Oscar next to him.
How could your eyes be so swollen by accident?Are you afraid that you were beaten? ! Otherwise, with Xiao Qing here, this minor injury would be fixed in a matter of minutes?
"What, do you have an opinion?"
Chu Chengzhou glanced at Ma Hongjun.
"Uh, no, no~"
Ma Hongjun quickly waved his hand.
Even if you have an opinion, you have to hold it in!I am a little three-ring soul master, but I can't afford to offend you, an assistant who can shoot soul saints.
"Xiao Wu, why do you want to hit Senior Chu?"
Zhu Zhuqing asked Xiao Wu in a low voice.
The only one who dared to hit Chu Chengzhou and didn't dare to treat his own injuries after being beaten was definitely Xiao Wu, his girlfriend.
"Ask him yourself! Rongrong, be serious, why are you laughing? I haven't settled the score with you yet!"
Seeing the little sister Ning Rongrong covering her mouth and having fun, Xiao Wu was furious.
Thanks to Sister Xiaowu for treating you as a good sister, but you ended up stealing someone behind my back? "My dear Xiao Wu, we are good sisters for life. Here, my sister respects you!"
Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue and handed her glass of milk to Xiao Wu's mouth with an obedient expression.
"Hmph~, I'll take care of you when I have time!"
With a cold snort, Xiao Wu glared at her little sisters.
"Good sister, don't do it~, it was my sister who was wrong, I'll give you a squeeze on your shoulders."
With that said, Ning Rongrong stood up, came behind Xiao Wu, and pinched her shoulders with great kindness.
Xiao Wu: "."
There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief!
Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhuqing was thoughtful.
After breakfast, the group headed to the Great Soul Fighting Arena.
Before entering, Chu Chengzhou saw Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin standing at the entrance of the Great Soul Fighting Arena.
"Father, Grandpa Jian!"
Seeing her father and Grandpa Jian, Ning Rongrong quickly ran up happily.
"Girl, were you scared last night?"
Chen Xin rubbed his little cotton-padded jacket's head.
"Hmm, the assassins of the Star Luo Empire are so abominable!"
As soon as this was mentioned, Ning Rongrong felt itchy with hatred.
"As long as you're okay, Dean Liu, the competition is about to start. You go in first. Boy Chu, come with me."
Ning Fengzhi said to the crowd.
Last night, assassins attacked Lanba Academy at night. The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect was not far from Tiandou City. Ning Fengzhi naturally knew it. After all, the guards he arranged for Xiao Mianjiao outside the academy were not just the two six-year-olds. Ring Soul Emperor.
Ning Fengzhi was anxious as soon as he received the news. After all, he only had such a daughter.
Just when he was about to go to Lanba Academy with Chen Xin, another guard came to report that the assassin had been eliminated. After Ning Rongrong and Chu Chengzhou, the target of the assassin's assassination, were both safe and sound, he felt relieved.
That is to say, it was getting late last night, and both of them were safe and sound, otherwise he would have rushed to Lanba Academy last night.
Nodding, Liu Erlong led everyone into the Great Soul Fighting Arena.
Chu Chengzhou, on the other hand, followed Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin to a teahouse not far from the Great Soul Fighting Arena.
After asking for a private room, Ning Fengzhi dismissed the waiter and signaled Chen Xin to set up a soul barrier in the private room to ensure that no fourth person could hear their conversation. Then he said: "Brother Chu , what do you think of what happened last night?"
"It's just that some people don't like me. To be precise, they don't like me who is close to the Qibao Glazed Sect. They want to kill me secretly."
Chu Chengzhou said with a calm expression.
"Then who do you think is behind this?"
Nodding slightly, Ning Fengzhi continued to ask.
"Salas of Tiandou Temple."
"Oh? Isn't it the Star Luo Empire?"
Ning Fengzhi raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.
Of course, he was not surprised that the assassin was not from the Star Luo Empire, but Chu Chengzhou was able to realize that the assassin was from the Spirit Hall.
Chu Chengzhou said directly: "I once had issues with a Soul Douluo from the Xingluo royal family and the eldest prince Davis, and I didn't deal with Dai Mubai, but if they wanted to send someone to attack me, they would have done it long ago. coming.
In addition, Dai Mubai knew my level of strength, but the three assassins did not and had no defense against me.
It just so happened that I showed some strength in the competition arena yesterday morning, and I was assassinated in the evening, which basically eliminated the Star Luo Empire.
After excluding the Star Luo Empire, only the Wuhun Palace is left. With such a tight time limit, the mastermind behind this can only be Salas. "
"That's right, it seems like you have some brains!"
Ning Fengzhi nodded in satisfaction.
He came to Chu Chengzhou this time just to remind him that the real culprit was probably not the Star Luo Empire, but the Wuhun Palace, but he didn't expect that the young man's head was pretty good, and he could think without his reminding.
"What a pity~, the murderer can only be the Star Luo Empire!"
Chu Chengzhou sighed.
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi became even more satisfied.
Not only is the young man talented, but he is also so clear-headed. He is indeed his chosen future son-in-law! Putting aside everything else, Ning Fengzhi wouldn't have to worry about Chu Chengzhou being tricked in the future.
