An Chengli glanced at An Zhe. ""Is the noodles good?""

An Chou embarra.s.sedly ate the noodles. After being silent for a while, he nodded seriously and said, ""Not good.""

An Chengli was stunned for a moment. Then, he took the chopsticks from An Ying's hands, picked them up and tasted them. Then he frowned. ""As expected, they are not tasty … But the King has actually finished his meal. It seems that he is still enjoying his meal …""

An Zeng gave him a thumbs up. ""It's really good for you.""

An Chengli asked, ""How did you know I cooked the noodles?""

""You didn't cook the noodles. What do you ask if it tastes good?""

An Chengli sighed, ""I really am an idiot.""

An Zhan looked outside, ""Persuade the King, do not let Nie Qing be your personal bodyguard.""

""I think something is wrong with Nie Qing.""

An Chengli said, ""Why didn't you say it yourself?""

An Zhan replied, ""I've already said it. Your Majesty thinks that I'm jealous of Nie Qing for being the leader of the guards.""

An Chengli nodded, ""I will pay attention, but …""

He turned around and looked outside. Seeing that Mu Changyan hadn't come back yet, he continued, ""Your Majesty is sometimes like a child.

He stubbornly believed that his judgment was correct. You also know that if a king does not have confidence in himself and thinks that his judgment is wrong, then it is obviously not a good thing.

So sometimes it's better to be tactful.

Nie Qing, this guard commander, is definitely going to do it. I advise the king to tell Nie Qing not to stay close to him for the time being. ""

An Zeng thought for a moment. ""You said that it would be better to be the Vice-Princ.i.p.al of the Martial Arts Academy and the personal bodyguard of the King?""

An Chengli said, ""Of course to be the personal bodyguard of the King.""

An Xuan said, ""Alright, I'll go and become the Vice Princ.i.p.al of the Martial Arts Academy.""

An Chengli sighed, ""You really aren't an honest person.""

""I will leave first and avenge the king on my behalf.""

I'm not joking, nor am I jealous of Nie Qing. Something could really go wrong with him.

""The easiest way is to let Zhuge Liuyun have a look. With Zhuge Liuyun's medical skills, it's impossible for him not to see it.""

An Chengli asked, ""Why did you show it to Zhuge Liuyun?""

""What do you think is happening to Nie Qing?""

An Chao nodded. ""What tricks do you have that you can't use?""

He left the Heavenly Imperial Palace. ""The martial arts world is still better than the temple hall.""

An Chengli looked at the departing figure of An Zaiyue and muttered to himself, ""Even if the martial arts world is good, but the temple is high?""

After An Zaihai returned to the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, Gu Zhaoyong and Madman Qu were given the responsibility of arranging the newbies, arranging the new territories they had taken, and announcing the rules and regulations.

After that, he brought Qu Liuxi, Gu Qianye and Du Leisurely to the Martial Arts Academy.

The Martial Arts Academy didn't seem to have changed at all, but the depression made one's heart feel as if winter had pa.s.sed.

Not long ago, the place had been bustling with people. Now, only the shadows of a few people accompanied them as they walked through the huge courtyard.

He walked to the innermost library of the Martial Arts Academy and saw Song Qiao Sheng standing there in a daze.

""h.e.l.lo, Mr. Song.""

An Zeng shouted.

Song Qiao looked at An Zaiyue and smiled awkwardly. ""Vice headmaster, how do you do?""

It was funny to think that An Zizhi had not adapted himself to this new ident.i.ty.

Song Qiao counted on his fingers. ""First grade uncle, by the date of your birthday next year, you might even be a third-grade official.""

""It sounds like a compliment.""

Song Qiao sighed, ""Will I have to call you Vice Princ.i.p.al every day I see you in the future?""

An Zhan leaned over and said in a low voice, ""You're still alright? If Dean Chang and Dean Huo saw me, that would be embarra.s.sing.""

At this moment, Huo Tang still walked over with a cold expression. As he walked, he said, ""Even if you're the princ.i.p.al, you're still my disciple.""

An Zhan felt somewhat embarra.s.sed.

""Come with me.""

""Okay,"" Huo Tang said expressionlessly and then turned to leave.

An Zizheng signaled for Skinny Du and the others to find something to do, then followed Hutang inside.

After circling around the bookstore, he stopped at the entrance of his small courtyard and turned around to look at An Zhe, ""There's something I need you to investigate. Nie Qing came back yesterday and went up to the third floor. I wasn't there.""

I discovered that he took away the purple-rank cultivation technique, but he was still there.

""Logically speaking, there's no reason for him to make a copy.""

""Are you sure, sir?""

""Mm."" Huo Tang nodded, ""I wrote a little less paper.""

An Xuan slightly frowned, ""Nie Qing might have been controlled by someone.""

""That person is back?!""

""Who?""

After a moment of silence, Huo Tang said, ""There's something you should know as well. After all, you're also the Vice Dean of the Martial Arts Academy, although you don't live up to your name.""

Many years ago, the Martial Arts Academy had encountered a disaster.

At that time, there were people with unknown origins attacking the Martial Arts Academy at night. At that time, almost all of the instructors who stayed behind at the Martial Arts Academy were killed in battle.

Fortunately, the old Headmaster had returned in time and was forced to retreat after a fierce battle with the a.s.sailants.

""However, the old princ.i.p.al was seriously injured and died the next day.""

""At that time, no one knew who was attacking, but the techniques that that person used were extremely strange, and there were countless magical equipment.

The next night, the man came again.

Coincidentally, at that time, Taoist Qian Yuan of Empyrean Terminus Palace came to send him off. Daoist Yuan fought a fierce battle with that person and used the Dao Sect's Jinglian Heart Technique to control the thirty-six cycles to trap that person within the library.

However, that person seemed to have vanished into thin air and never appeared again.

However, Daoist Yuan was convinced that that person was still trapped in the library.

After that, the Martial Arts Academy started sending people to guard the library. This is already the second generation. ""

An Zhan asked, ""Who is Taoist Qian Yuan?""

""Daoist Qian Yuan is the person who captured the stone spirit when the a.s.sa.s.sins of the Tian Ji Palace attempted to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King of Yan.""

However, he had already pa.s.sed away for many years, and that was only the illusion he left behind in the formation.

""In addition, the Supreme Dao Palace was founded by Daoist Qian Yuan … The two Taoists who were killed by the High Lake in the Heavenly Temple, even Daoist Qian Yuan's disciple, the Second Sect Master of the Supreme Dao Palace, and his junior brother, were also twin brothers.""

""Is that the devil?""

""I don't know.""

An Zhe thought for a moment and said, ""Nie Qing shouldn't have been controlled by that demon, it should be someone else. I suspect that it's someone from the empress dowager's side.""

""If there really is a demon in this world, then the empress dowager is one.""

She looked around and said, ""You're the only one who can investigate Nie Qing.""

Song Cangsheng wanted to keep a firm watch on the library. Although he didn't know if that person would return, he still had his responsibilities.

Dean Chang and I are going to travel more in Empyrean Terminus Palace, so we will probably leave the matters in the martial field to you.

That violet rank cultivation method …

""It allows one to reconstruct one's fleshly body.""

An Xuan said, ""Then you must pay more attention to Nie Qing. He is also in Heavenly Temple.""

""Go. If Nie Qing comes back, you can talk to him. Perhaps you'll find something.""

An Zhan nodded, ""I'll be taking my leave then.""

""You can go up to the third floor. The purple rank cultivation technique book is still there.""

An Zaiyue thought for a while and then shook his head, ""Cultivation techniques, even if they are purple, are still external items.""

Huo Tang was stunned for a moment and then started to think.

Actually, there was nothing to do in the Martial Arts Academy. After cultivating for half a day with Skinny Du and the others, An Zeng prepared to go to the library to talk to Song Qiao Sheng.

He still had too many questions about the devil.

When he walked out of the library, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

In broad daylight, why did the shadow of a person appear on the window of the bookstore?

Song Qiao was standing at the door.

""Be careful!""

An Zeng shouted, and the bronze bell instantly flew out, smas.h.i.+ng towards the shadow on the window.

With a flash, the shadow disappeared. After losing its target, the bronze bell hovered in mid-air, seemingly at a loss.

At this moment, a chill ran down An Zhe's spine.

With a thought, four scales of holy fish flew out from the Blood Pearl bracelet and formed a wall in front of An Zeng.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAA!

A huge impact landed on the scales of the holy fish, and An Zhe couldn't help but retreat backwards. His two feet drew two trails on the ground.

The scales of the holy fish split a line, and Anjou looked out through it.

On the opposite side was the grinning Ding Shengxia.

The corner of An Zhe's mouth twitched. It was a cold killing intent.

""The ghost will not disperse.""

He straightened, and the bronze bell flew back to float beside him.

Ding Shengxia was holding a very, very long halberd in her hand, while he wore a fiery red armor. It was impossible to tell what material it was made of.

However, there were many complicated runes flickering on it. It seemed that it was of a high rank.

However, Ding Shengxia should have magic equipment on her, so she couldn't easily determine what grade it belonged to.

""You're right, I'm a persistent ghost.""

Ding Shengxia sneered, ""If I don't kill you every day, I won't be at peace for a single day.""

""I will pester you, at the ends of the earth, and not rest until I die.""

""Then die.""

He pointed forward, and the bronze bell rang.

Ding Shengxia thrust the ancient halberd in his hand upwards, causing a black bolt of lightning to shoot out.

The bronze bell in the sky suddenly stopped. The bell started to spin, and a series of sound waves rippled down from the bell, like a enlarged bell.

The black lightning was blocked by the sound waves. Although it was not broken, it was still very difficult to advance forward.

After the bell blocked the black lightning, the sound wave coiled out two dotted lines of ripples and rushed towards Ding Shengxia.

Ding Shengxia sneered, ""Do you think the same thing can hurt me twice?""

He ignored the sound wave and rushed towards An Zhe.

The sound wave coiled around Ding Shengxia's body. The red armor on Ding Shengxia's body flashed with a bright light, and the sound wave was actually attracted by an invisible force.

Two sound waves were directed to the back of Ding Shengxia and exploded amidst the flowers and trees.

He did not know how many flowers and plants were sent flying, the soil and broken branches and leaves flying everywhere.

Ding Shengxia laughed out loud and said, ""I have a superior magical equipment on me. You can't hurt me.""

The ancient halberd in his hands stabbed forwards, piercing into the scales of the Sacred Fish.

The ancient halberd actually contained a strange type of power, it was as though it could break through the scales of this holy fish at any moment.

The scales of the Sacred Fish were originally the strongest defensive magical equipment in the world. However, they were not complete, so it was difficult for them to display their greatest might.

The power of the ancient halberd was like water, pus.h.i.+ng its way through the gaps in the scales of the holy fish.

An Zhe frowned. Ding Shengxia seemed to have gotten stronger.

What kind of method was this to allow a person's strength to increase by leaps and bounds in such a short period of time?

At this moment, Chang Huan and Huotang also hurried over.

An Zaiyue didn't have the time to say anything else. He pointed at the bookstore and said, ""Hurry up, Mr. Song might not be able to hold him off by himself.""

Chang Huan and Hutang's expressions changed as they rushed into the library.

Ding Shengxia glanced at the bookstore and then grinned. ""You are really arrogant to actually let your helpers leave … Alright, we will settle our debt to each other in the end. You should pay back the debt of my family.""

An Zhan took a deep breath. ""Not all of them, just one more for you."""
