Chapter 73 Blue and White Club
An elderly man with a fair face and a beautiful beard stood on the top of a pavilion, looking down at the turbulent Tianlong River in the distance, with sails on the river and hundreds of boats vying for the current.
Across the river, there is the courtyard of Tianlong Imperial Capital, where the buildings are row upon row, looming in the river mist.
There was a hint of admiration on the elder's face. He turned around and looked at the ten newly built high platforms below. He said to himself: "In another month, there will be a fight between dragons and tigers here. I don't know who else will be lucky. Being able to be chosen by the Immortal Family..."
This person was at Tianlong Academy, the most famous Tianlong Academy in the Tianlong Empire, where tens of thousands of young geniuses from all over the country gathered.
He is none other than Dean Gu Quanru.
"Time flies so fast! It's been twenty years again!"
He seemed to still remember the group of talented young people who participated in the Immortal Attendance Competition twenty years ago. It was here that they started and finally entered the gate of the Immortal Family.
Now, those people will return to Tianlong and become the pillars of the empire.
And a new batch of young geniuses will embark on a journey again to pursue their dreams in life.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a woman in white hurried up. It was Li Xiaozhao, the president of the literary club.
"Dean!" Li Xiaozhao shouted, panting slightly.
"President Li, seeing that you look in a hurry, is there something urgent?"
"Exactly!"
"Say it."
"Our... literary club's classics have been stolen!" Li Xiaozhao had a strange look on his face.
"Stolen? Which one?"
"One...not one, but...all of them."
"All?! How could it be possible that with so many classics on the tenth floor, they were all stolen?!" Gu Quanru said in shock.
"Dean...I know you won't believe it no matter what I say. Why don't you go and see for yourself..."
Gu Quanru didn't even believe that someone would evacuate all the literature club's books, so he and Li Xiaozhao hurried to the literary club's pavilion.
As soon as I got downstairs, I heard noisy sounds. Many people gathered there, talking and getting angry.
Seeing the dean's arrival, people automatically moved out of the way.
Gu Quanru and Li Xiaozhao quickly entered a room on the first floor. They were stunned as soon as they entered. All the classics on the display cabinets were gone!
"Dean, every room is like this, and..."
"And what?!" Gu Quanru shouted.
"Moreover, someone left a poem in the big room on the tenth floor." Li Xiaozhao said.
"Walk!"
Gu Quanru angrily walked up to the tenth floor and broke into the big room.
The display cabinets were still empty, and a poem was written on the wall in front of them.
"Borrowing Books"
I left quietly,
As I come gently;
I borrow books gently,
I pray you don't wake up.
That red sun in the sky,
It’s my dream to borrow books;
The waves of Tianlong River,
Flowing in my heart.
words in classics,
growing in my mind;
In the ocean of thoughts,
I'm trying to find a sparkle!
(Visited at midnight and was delighted to see the book. I borrowed and returned some!)
"Is this... borrowing or returning?!"
Gu Quanru was a little stunned when he read this poem.
"Dean, I think this poem is really good!" Li Xiaozhao has read this poem countless times.
"You?! Even though all the books have been stolen, you still praise the poems he left?!"
"I..." Li Xiaozhao's face turned slightly red.
At this time, several more people rushed in from outside. Gu Quanru saw that they were all presidents of various branches in the college.
"Dean, it's bad! All the classics in our academy have been stolen!" Several people said in unison.
"How is this possible?! How can anyone move so many books? What's more, each club is protected by formations!"
Gu Quanru thought it was incredible.
The total number of books in so many societies is almost as high as a hill, and each society is protected by independent formations. These formations are so strong that it is almost impossible for warriors to enter without being discovered.
Suddenly, a figure flashed, and a middle-aged man with cheeks and swollen muscles came in, shouting loudly: "Dean, it's bad! All the classics of the Xuan Gong Society are gone! That Heaven-Level Xuan Technique "" "Tianlong Sword Technique" also..."
"It was stolen too?! Xu Rong, you guard the Xuan Gong Club and you don't even know that the classics have been stolen. Have you been drinking again..."
"Hey, Dean, I just went out last night and was not in the club." Xu Rong said harshly.
"Huh, I'm afraid you're still drunk even if you're here..." Gu Quanru said sarcastically.
"I...Oh!" Xu Rong was finally speechless.
Someone next to me said: "Dean, I discovered that the scrapyard at the back of our college was all emptied out last night!"
"What?!" Everyone was shocked.
Everyone immediately rushed to the scrapyard. Sure enough, all the scraps that Tianlong Academy had accumulated there for countless years were gone. A deep valley appeared in front of them, and it could not be seen to the side at a glance.
"Wow!"
Everyone exclaimed, and a chill ran through their bodies.
Gu Quanru sat down slumped and sighed: "Okay! I'm finally clean now..."
…
The space above the Tianlong Imperial Capital was extremely quiet, but in this quietness, there was an unknown secret. The jade owned by Li Yun was shuttled through the space.
"Master, what I said is right, Tianlong Academy is just a big fat sheep."
"That's true. The scraps alone are much more than the total we got before, and can produce a lot of land for me." Li Yun said with a smile.
Since Li Yun began to cultivate, his ability to control jade has greatly improved. He can hide in jade to control it without leaving the outside world, and his efficiency has been greatly increased.
He spent a whole night last night to completely evacuate Tianlong Academy. Those protective formations could not block the jade stone from entering and exiting at will.
I was so excited that I left a little poem, indicating that I had to return the borrowed books, so that Tianlong Academy would not be too anxious.
It was the last darkness before dawn. He controlled the jade stone and returned to Zhongzhihou Mansion by a familiar route.
Just as he was about to enter the mansion, he suddenly stopped.
"Xiao Xing, what does that person hiding in the big tree outside the house want to do?!"
Li Yun's spiritual sense has become much sharper. Now the range of his sensing is expanded than before, reaching more than one hundred meters. Within this range, his sensing is extremely clear.
"This man... was dressed in night clothes, with a long sword in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the door of the house... Could it be that he wanted to kill someone?!" Xiaoxing analyzed.
"Yes, the sword in his hand is a real murderous sword." Li Yun's eyes flashed.
"He ran to the big tree outside Zhongzhihou's mansion, staring at the door of the mansion to kill someone. Could it be that his target was...you?!" Xiaoxing said in shock.
"Who else could it be if it wasn't me?! It's a pity that he doesn't understand me at all." Li Yun said.
"Why didn't he enter the house to find you, instead hiding in the tree?" Xiaoxing asked curiously.
"Hee hee, why did you forget that we have a large formation to protect the mansion? He must have come to perform the mission at night, but was blocked and had to hide there to wait for an unexpected opportunity."
"Hey, I'm really confused. Master, do you want to arrest him for interrogation?" Xiaoxing said.
"No need, these kind of people are all dead soldiers, and usually they can't ask anything."
"What should we do?"
Li Yun looked into the distance, where a ray of morning light was peeking out, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid he is leaving."
Sure enough, after a while, the killer seemed to have made up his mind, jumped up, left the tree, and flew into the distance.
"Hehe, I want to see who wants to kill me?"
Li Yun controlled the jade stone and quietly followed the killer.
I saw that this killer was very familiar with the terrain. He climbed over eaves and walls, turned left and right, crossed many streets, and finally slipped into a small alley. He passed through several courtyards, opened a secret door, and entered an underground passage.
After walking hurriedly in the dark passage for a while, an underground palace appeared in front of me.
"Your Majesty, my subordinate No. 3 failed to find the target." The killer entered the palace and said respectfully.
"Oh?! Is the information provided by the customer wrong?" said a voice that sounded like it came from hell.
"The target should be inside the mansion, but the information does not indicate that the Zhongzhihou Mansion has a palace-protecting formation." Killer No. 3 said.
"Protect the Mansion Formation?!"
"Yes. My subordinates tried a variety of methods, but still could not avoid the large formation covering the entire mansion and enter the mansion. They could only wait for the opportunity outside the mansion. However, it was already dawn and the target never appeared, so they had to come back first to resume their lives. .”
"Um...Okay, you go and rest first."
"Yes! I am resigning."
The killer retreats.
"There is actually a palace-protecting formation?! Li Yun, Li Yun, what other secrets do you have?" the voice murmured to himself.
…
"Blue and White Club?!"
Li Yun checked this underground palace and found that this was actually the headquarters of the famous killer organization Blue and White Society and Tianlong Empire.
This reminded him of what Li Wei had told him about eleven years ago, when a killer from the Blue and White Society disguised himself as Li Wei's butler and carried out an assassination.
"I didn't expect that the Blue and White Club would actually interact with both my father and my son." Li Yun sighed.
"Master, destroy the Blue and White Society! How dare they offend us repeatedly!" Xiaoxing said angrily.
"The Blue and White Society collects money to do things. The key is to find out who commissioned them to kill."
"Just check their account books and you will know." Xiaoxing said.
"That's right, just take their warehouse by the way." Li Yun said with a smile.
"That's how it should be."
Li Yun rummaged around in the underground palace, and finally he discovered the location of the account books and warehouse. However, the employer who hired the murderer was someone he never expected.
"The person who paid for the murder turned out to be His Highness Long Wen?!" Li Yun said in astonishment.
"Master, you have treated his serious injuries, but he actually hires someone to kill you?! This kind of person really deserves to die!"
"Hmph! The problem is that he not only wants to kill me, but also wants to kill all the top 100 talented young people in the Grand Palace and the Three Princes' Palace. Even Yang Qian is in his plan!"
"This man is absolutely crazy!"
"No! Maybe those talented young people have been killed by the killers of the Blue and White Club!" Li Yun said in shock.
"Master, it's possible! Judging from the situation of the killer just now, they were dispatched last night. It seems that everyone who can succeed has already succeeded. Fortunately, everyone in Tingchao District came to Zhongzhihou Mansion and escaped. A calamity.”
"This... don't worry. The young people in Tingchao District were not originally included in His Highness the Fifth Prince's plan, and their ranking was not high. Unfortunately, those talented young people who were previously ranked high were too late to rescue."
Li Yun's face turned red and he sighed: "In order to fight for the crown prince's position, he actually became so heartbroken and crazy!"
After taking away all the items from the Blue and White Club's warehouse, Li Yun quietly returned to the residence of Marquis Zhongzhi.
I checked the situation in the house and found that everything was normal, so I felt relieved.
