Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 262
Chapter 262 The Truth Was Revealed
Everyone’s eyes fell on Ya’er, watching her return to her original location, all of them wanting to know the result.
“Big brother, come here!”
Ya’er held Ye Feng’s arm and pulled him aside.
“Ya’er, did something happen?”
Ye Feng asked in a low voice.
“Yes. Someone grabbed the cub from the depths of the Hengduan Mountain Range and brought it to the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. Only then did the cub get angry.”
It turned out that someone had grabbed the cub back from the depths of the Hengduan Mountain Range, which was why he angrily grabbed the cub and followed the scent.
Ya’er told Ye Feng all the information she had exchanged with the Earth Tiger.
“The Earth Tiger usually lives in the deepest part of the Hengduan Mountain Range. Who can enter the deepest part? Even the Earth Martial Realm is unable to do so, right?”
Ye Feng frowned slightly, feeling that this was a conspiracy.
“I also asked earlier. The Earth-grabbing Tiger said that it was hunting at that time. It saw a black shadow flash by and discovered that its cub had disappeared. Following the scent, it discovered that the cub was in the Heavenly Spiritual Academy.”
Ya’er continued.
“Mm, you go appease the Earth Tiger first. I’ll go find the cub.”
After Ye Feng understood the situation, his first task was to find the cub. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left this place so easily.
The headmaster and the others walked over. Seeing Ye Feng frown, they knew that the matter was definitely not that simple. Why did the Earth Tiger suddenly attack the Heavenly Spiritual Academy?
Ye Feng recounted what Ya’er had just said, and Shi Zhongtian frowned slightly. Especially when it came to the black shadow, who exactly was it?
“Arrange for anyone in the academy to bring their cubs back from the Hengduan Mountain Range.”
The headmaster instructed the six or seven mentors behind him.
“Yes, Hall Master!”
The Earth Tiger was no longer attacking, and the six or seven instructors hurriedly went to investigate.
Two hours later, six or seven instructors appeared at the same time, bringing along three inner sect disciples. One of the female instructors was carrying a newly born Earth Snatching Tiger in her arms.
Seeing his own child, the distant Earth Tiger let out another roar, wanting to rush over, but Ya’er comforted him.
Ye Feng took the cub and held it in his arms. He walked towards the Earth Tiger and quickly walked to Ya’er’s side.
Ya’er, tell him that the cub has been returned to him. I hope that he will leave this place immediately. From now on, he will not step into the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. Otherwise … Ye Feng stretched out his fist and a dark force burst forth. A huge pit appeared on the ground, causing the eyes of the Earth Scratching Tiger to shrink when he saw it.
Ya’er conveyed Ye Feng’s intentions to the Earth Tiger. The latter nodded humanely and understood Ya’er’s intentions. She also looked at Ye Feng with fear in her eyes. She took the cub and turned to walk towards the depths of the Hengduan Mountain Range.
A storm had ended just like that. If it wasn’t for Ye Feng’s arrival, the Heavenly Spiritual Academy would probably have been completely destroyed by now.
“Everyone disperse!”
The Hall Master greeted, and the surrounding disciples dispersed and began to clean up the battlefield. Meanwhile, Ye Feng was led to the main hall of the front hall by the Hall Master. This was the place where the Hall Master usually discussed matters. Six or seven mentors brought three inner sect disciples into the hall together.
“How did you get the cubs of the Earth Tiger!”
After taking his seat, the Hall Master asked the three disciples with a wave of dignity.
The three of them were ordinary disciples. Normally, it was hard to even see the face of the Hall Master. Today, they were suddenly caught. They were scared to the point that their legs were shaking. They were as calm as cicadas. They didn’t dare to breathe. The Hall Master scolded them and almost sat down on their buttocks.
“Courtyard … Courtyard Master, it’s like this. The three of us went out to train yesterday and met a cub lying on the roadside. We saw that it was a cub and brought it back. We didn’t expect it to be the cub that caught the Earth Tiger.”
The three of them also knew the seriousness of the matter and didn’t dare to conceal anything. They told the truth about the news they had obtained from the Hengduan Mountain Range that they had captured the cub of the Earth Tiger.
Everyone’s brows furrowed when they heard this. It was obvious that someone had deliberately placed the cub of the Earth Tiger where they passed and brought it back to the academy. They were trying to lure the cub to suddenly attack the academy. Everything seemed to be deliberately controlled by someone.
“There’s nothing else for you guys. Let’s go down!”
The Hall Master waved his hand and could not find any useful information from the three of them. It was just that they were being used by others. The key was to find out who this black figure was and go deeper into the Hengduan Mountain Range.
“Ye Feng, it’s fortunate that you arrived in time this time. Otherwise, it would be really unimaginable. Even if the academy could be preserved, it would still be a mess. There would even be countless deaths and injuries.”
The Hall Master said to Ye Feng with gratitude.
“Courtyard Master, you’re too courteous. This is what disciples should do!”
Ye Feng said very politely. Since they met, Ye Feng naturally could not stand idly by.
“I feel that this matter is strange. Once everything is arranged, I will return to the inner courtyard and report it truthfully. I hope that the inner courtyard will take some actions to prevent the same thing from happening again.”
At this time, the Academy Master had told everyone that Ye Feng was on the same level as him.
‘”Hall Master, do you think it was done by people from Daluo College or Guiyun Castle? Last time, all of the disciples of Heavenly Phenomenon Valley were annihilated. As a result, not a single disciple was selected to enter the inner courtyard at the end of last year. He probably harbors a grudge against us. Now, he wants to take revenge on our Heavenly Spiritual Academy.”
A mentor stood up. Ye Feng also recognized him. When he escorted him to the inner courtyard, one of them was this mentor.
“It’s highly possible that our academy doesn’t have any hostile forces in the Open Source Kingdom. Other than these two, even if they are two, with their strength, it’s impossible for them to go deep into the Hengduan Mountain Range.”
Another mentor analyzed.
“Do you think it’s possible that someone from the inner court of the Grand Allheaven is behind this and entered the depths of the Hengduan Mountain Range?”
A new mentor who had just arrived in the Open Source Kingdom said slowly.
“We can’t rule out this possibility. Anyway, we need to make all preparations to prevent the two families from jumping over the wall and the same thing from happening again.”
The Hall Master nodded, not ruling out this possibility.
Everyone exchanged words and guessed at each other. They couldn’t guess exactly, but there would always be a day when things would come to light.
“Ye Feng, how long will you be able to stay here this time? Look at the current state of the academy, it’s impossible for you to perform any welcoming ceremony.”
The Hall Master changed the topic and said helplessly to Ye Feng.
Logically speaking, Ye Feng was returning home after all, Ye Feng had walked out from this place. Now that he had returned from his studies, the outer court also had a lot of face. Especially since Ye Feng had won the inner court competition, the outer court had obtained a large amount of resources from the Open Source Foreign Court. He even sent a few powerful mentors to help the outer court.
“Hall Master is too courteous. This disciple has only returned for a brief stay. He still has to leave later and hurry back to the inner courtyard!”
Ye Feng stood up and said. The outer courtyard had been damaged by the Earth Tiger and needed a period of time to repair. Ye Feng could not afford to waste too much time.
“Alright, I won’t waste too much time on you. I hope that you can cultivate properly in the future and come back to take a look when you have time.”
The Hall Master still hoped that Ye Feng would not forget the outer court. After all, the higher Ye Feng flew, the higher the outer court would rise in the future. Even the Ye Feng Clan would be the same.
“I will!”
After a brief chat, Ye Feng offered his resignation and intended to leave the outer courtyard. In a few days, it would be the day of opening the illusion. Ye Feng could not delay any longer.
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Ye Feng slowly left the Heavenly Spiritual Outer Court and flew towards the Heavenly Spiritual Inner Court and the Black Yan Mountain Range.
“Big brother, where are you going? According to the map, you are heading deeper into the Hengduan Mountains.”
Ye Feng flew with Ya’er for an hour, but he actually took a turn and flew towards the depths of the Hengduan Mountains.
“I’m afraid that Lil ‘Tiger hasn’t left yet. Let’s go check it out. Perhaps we can find some clues.”
Ye Feng said indifferently, intending to find out exactly who was framing the Heavenly Spiritual Academy.
“Oh, that’s why you didn’t kill the Earth Tiger, right?”
Ya’er seemed to understand why Ye Feng did not kill the Earth Grabbing Tiger. With Ye Feng’s strength, killing an Earth Martial Realm Earth Grabbing Tiger was as simple as eating and drinking water. Why did he not kill it? So it was quietly following him.
After flying for half an hour, Ye Feng quickly left the periphery of the Hengduan Mountain Range and flew deeper. He did not discover the aura left behind by the Earth Tiger. He estimated that he had already returned to the depths of the Hengduan Mountain Range. Ye Feng was relieved to prevent it from returning again.
The two of them dived down from the sky and entered the dense forest. The ancient trees in the surroundings were three days tall. Some of them were about a hundred zhang tall. Some of them were even about a thousand zhang tall. They covered the sky and covered the sun. All kinds of vines sealed the road. There were no roads. Ye Feng could only take out a knife and cut off some thorns that blocked the road, opening a path alive.
“Big brother, I’m a little scared!”
The surroundings were quiet, and even the light was blocked by the giant tree. The ground was very wet. There were also some reptiles crawling past their feet. The light was very dim. No wonder Ya’er was afraid. If a normal person came in, she would feel her heart beating faster.
“It’s fine. Follow closely behind me. This is where the aura of the Earth Tiger disappeared.”
Ye Feng followed the aura of the Earth-grabbing Tiger, hoping to find some clues, such as whether there were any traces left behind by the black shadow near the den of the Earth-grabbing Tiger.
Ya’er tightly grabbed onto Ye Feng’s clothes, not leaving at all. She felt a chilly and strange cold wind blowing past them. The plants around her let out rope sounds, and even some plants let out sharp howls, which were extremely ear-piercing.
The deeper they walked, the deeper they got into the thorns. Ye Feng could only wipe them out on a large scale, leaving behind a path. After all, Ye Feng was a human, not a demonic beast. He could shuttle under the thorns. Even if he was scratched, with the demonic beast’s physique, these thorns could not harm the demonic beasts at all.
Ye Feng could do the same, but the clothes on his body would definitely not be able to resist. Once the thorns were cut open, Ye Feng could only advance naked.
“Boom!”
Just as the two of them were advancing carefully, a loud rumble came from the front. It was as if something huge had fallen to the ground, making a dull sound.
“Let’s go, let’s go take a look!”
Ye Feng suddenly accelerated and quickly rushed forward.
Ya’er could only use her movement technique and float in midair, wandering between the gaps of the giant trees, quickly following behind.
In just a few dozen breaths of time, Ye Feng saw a huge open space in front of him. On the ground lay a huge body. It was …
