Chapter 412

"Trash, you are of no use. Today, I will give the evil cultivators face. If you can't gather one hundred geniuses within half a month, then our cooperation will end here."

"I came here to complete my grand cause of destroying the human race. If you can't even handle this small matter, what use are you? Go and take action immediately."

"Now there is only one goal: geniuses. I need more geniuses. This plan of so many years must succeed. If you drop the ball on this matter, be careful, I will find someone in charge to deal with you. Do you hear me?"

Chen Ang quickly replied, "Yes, Lord Lan Mo. We will go back now and immediately think of a way to ensure the task is completed as soon as possible. We will definitely not let you down."

After pretending to have finished reporting the situation, the two left the camp and found a relatively hidden place. Chen Ang said first, "Wan Wan Wan Shitong, we are in trouble this time. I see that Lan Mo doesn't have any cultivation on him."

"There are only two possibilities: either he is a mortal, or he is a true expert. According to the current situation, it is very troublesome to solve this. The only thing we can do is find a way to bring in reinforcements."

"Go and call Master Xing Tian over. I believe Master Xing Tian can easily solve this. Acting Acting Dean Su Su Xian is not at Wuqu Academy, and Master Xing Tian has the highest combat ability. His peak Sovereign Realm cultivation should be able to easily resolve a disaster."

"Go ahead, I will keep an eye on things here. Even if they move the camp or something, I can follow closely. This matter is of great importance; you must not be careless. Act quickly."

"Boss, then you be careful. I will bring reinforcements immediately and return shortly. If there is danger, retreat immediately. Don't force it; staying alive is the most important thing."

After speaking, he left the place. Chen Ang also returned to the camp, knowing that the most dangerous place is the safest. Although there were many evil cultivators in the camp, there were very few people who could truly pose a danger to him.

Returning to the place where the geniuses were locked up, he looked at those controlled people and wanted to find a way to wake them up, but it was of no use. This person Lan Mo possessed very strong strength.

Through the previous conversation, he learned that he should be here to temporarily help the evil cultivators. It would be best to find a way to cut off the relationship between the evil cultivators and Lan Mo. Looking at the current situation, there is indeed a most suitable method, which is to kill these geniuses.

The evil cultivators would definitely not be able to complete it within half a month. If they couldn't reach the goal, they would definitely fall apart. But doing so would mean losing so many geniuses. There was a reason for this, but there would definitely be trouble in the end. Unless it was a last resort, he would definitely not do it.

On the other side, Wan Wan Wan Shitong rode as fast as he could back to Wuqu Academy. It wasn't far, and this time he tried his best and arrived very quickly. Seeing Xing Tian, he told him everything about this matter in detail.

Upon hearing this, Xing Tian was shocked, "I really didn't expect that after so many years, the evil cultivators would make a comeback. This time it is very dangerous, but fortunately, it was discovered in time. This is very gratifying."

"Let's go. Having not taken action for so many years, it's time to let others see my strength. You brat, you did well this time. With me here, don't worry, Chen Ang will not have any problems."

"As Chen Ang's master, whoever wants to kill my disciple must first pass through me. Back then, I was alone in the Sin Prison and could slaughter everyone. A few mere evil cultivators? It's not easy, it's as simple as killing chickens."

423: Rescuing the Geniuses

Chen Ang originally wanted to go to Lan Mo's room to find a way to lift the control, but unfortunately, his tracks were discovered. He wanted to escape but was caught. Just when he was about to be torn to pieces, Xing Tian and Wan Wan Wan Shitong arrived in time.

Looking at the expert in front of him, Lan Mo could not help but say, "Your Excellency, we seem to have no grudges, right? I have nothing else to do today, I just want this kid's life. Please do not interfere."

Xing Tian laughed, "This kid is my disciple. Saying that I shouldn't interfere in this matter is a bit inappropriate, right? If you want to kill Chen Ang, you must first pass through me. What is going on with these geniuses? There are several from Wuqu Academy. Aren't you afraid of attracting others' attention by doing this?"

Lan Mo said, "So that's how it is. I'd like to see what your strength is like. You have a big mouth."

After speaking, he began to continuously wake up those sleeping puppet geniuses. Those geniuses kept attacking Xing Tian, but there was no way. He had to find the breaking point.

Chen Ang reminded, "Master, knock Lan Mo unconscious. To catch the bandits, catch the leader first. Knock the puppeteer unconscious, and it will surely collapse on its own. These people are controlled, and each of them has a family behind them. Killing even one of them would not be good for Wuqu Academy."

Xing Tian began to attack Lan Mo from different directions, but unfortunately, he was blocked tightly by the controlled geniuses. He was very helpless and had to think of a way to change his thinking; he had to distract them.

He had to find a way to sacrifice something. He said to Wan Wan Wan Shitong, "Help me share the attention and create an opportunity. Just this one chance, absolutely do not be careless. There are many geniuses on your body, so pay attention to safety."

"Haha, leave it to me. These are all small problems."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong had broken through to the Spirit Realm, and his strength was much stronger than before. The Nine Nether Underworld Flame had been continuously evolved by the Phoenix, and its strength had increased significantly. The two cooperated to instantly attract the attention of most of the puppet geniuses.

Taking advantage of a moment of inattention, Xing Tian successfully got behind Lan Mo and directly knocked him unconscious. The puppet geniuses all lost their ability to act and stood there blankly.

After checking that everything was fine, Xing Tian asked, "Tell me, you brat, how should this person be handled? Should I kill him or keep him? One word decides it. No matter who is behind this person, Wuqu Academy is not afraid."

Seeing the dazed geniuses, Chen Ang analyzed, "Master, my opinion is to first find a way to wake these geniuses up, because Lan Mo's control is still in a state of confusion, so we cannot act rashly."

"We must find a way to get him to tell us the method of puppet control. What I am not sure about is whether these geniuses will definitely wake up after Lan Mo dies. The most stable method is to let Lan Mo say it himself."

"But doing so is indeed difficult. Lan Mo refuses to say the control method no matter what. If we drag it out, and wait for the evil cultivators to come to the rescue, the few of us will not be enough. We must make a quick decision."

"Haha, isn't that simple? Just disguise as an evil cultivator and trick him into saying it. If he doesn't want to say it on the way, just kill him. He must have utility value; if he has no value, he dies directly."

"Good idea, why didn't I think of that?"

The few followed the plan, entered the room where Lan Mo was held before the dead of night, and rescued him. Looking at the few people in front of him, he asked, "Who sent you?"

The few had long since disguised themselves, changing their appearance and voices, so they were basically unrecognizable. Chen Ang said, "Lord Evil King heard that Mr. Lan Mo is in a crisis, so he sent us to rescue Mr. Lan Mo. Wuqu Academy and the evil cultivators have a grudge; we both have a common enemy to deal with."

He said vigilantly, "Take out evidence to prove you are evil cultivators. If there is enough evidence, I will leave with you."

Chen Ang had long been prepared and took out the prepared token, saying, "This is the token. Take a look; there should be no problem."

This token was taken from another evil cultivator. After confirming there was no problem, Lan Mo was temporarily relieved and said, "Okay, let's go quickly. That old guy's strength is very strong; we can't beat him at all. We must contact the Evil King as soon as possible."

Chen Ang asked temptingly, "What about these geniuses? Will they wake up and break the control?"

"It's fine. No matter what, they will be under my control. As long as they are still in the world for one day, don't even think about living well."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong, disguised as a black-robed man, could not help but laugh, "Your meaning is, as long as they are alive, they will always be under control, but if they die, will they recover?"

Lan Mo nodded seriously, "Of course. It is controlled by mental power itself. As long as the mental power is still there, then there is no problem."

"Haha, then I'm sorry, Mr. Lan Mo. Now you can die in peace."

After speaking, a blade ended the puppeteer's life. Those controlled geniuses all returned to their normal appearance. Looking at the strange surroundings, they all looked very confused.

Xing Tian walked up to the geniuses and said, "I am Xing Tian of Wuqu Academy. You can follow me to Wuqu Academy first. Each family will have someone specifically to pick you up."

"Do not act rashly. Your bodies have just recovered. Wuqu Academy will give you a reasonable explanation for what happened. I hope you can cooperate with our actions."

The geniuses did not know what was going on and were all dazed. They had all been caught inadvertently. Now that the control had just been lifted, some had not reacted yet.

Seeing that they were not listening, Xing Tian released his peak Sovereign Realm aura and shouted, "Follow me back to Wuqu Academy, do you hear me?"

He brought these geniuses back to Wuqu Academy. Afterward, he let the major families come to pick up their people. This incident resolved the crisis brought by the evil cultivators and made Wuqu Academy's reputation soar.

Originally, Wuqu Academy had been affected by the departure of the previous Acting Acting Dean's avatar. After this rescue operation, the major families felt grateful to Wuqu Academy and were willing to send their geniuses over. It was a profitable business, a win-win situation.

This incident was not easy for the evil cultivators. The Evil King said, "How did you handle things? You couldn't even protect a Lan Mo. Do you know that we paid a huge price to the Demon Dragon Pavilion to invite Lan Mo?"

"What should we do? Tell me what should be done to reduce the losses."

"Lord, complaining after the fact is useless. We should find a way to get the people from the Demon Dragon Pavilion to send more manpower to deal with Wuqu Academy, right?"

"I heard that Lan Mo was the son of an important figure in the Demon Dragon Pavilion. If we tell them about this, what will the Demon Dragon Pavilion do? They will definitely take action."

"This incident has exposed the evil cultivators to the public eye again. We must find a way to divert attention. The conflict between the Demon Dragon Pavilion and Wuqu Academy is an opportunity to slowly develop our strength."

"Haha, you kid are still smart. I will consider it carefully. You all go down first. Remember, do not disclose today's events to others."

424: The Evil King's Conspiracy

The Evil King took out a crystal ball he had prepared in advance. After lighting it up, an image of a black-robed man appeared on the opposite side. Through the crystal ball, he said, "Tell me why Lan Mo died. We have been cooperating with the evil cultivators for so long, and there has never been any mistake. Can you tell me the reason for this incident?"

The Evil Lord explained, "This matter is the negligence of the evil cultivators. Originally, there was no problem, but someone tipped them off, and a peak Sovereign Realm expert appeared. Lan Mo's strength was formidable, but it was of no use."

"After being caught, he should have been interrogated under torture. Having no value, he was killed by the people of Wuqu Academy. The compensation that should be given this time will be made up for. It is the evil cultivators who are sorry to the Demon Dragon Pavilion."

"Haha, do you think this matter can be solved so easily? Rest assured, those few people from Wuqu Academy won't live long. Lan Mo came here to train, and the big shot behind him has eyes and ears everywhere. Even I am somewhat wary."

"This time, Wuqu Academy has encountered a true expert. Having lurked in the Fallen World for so long, it is time to let others know what the strength of destruction is."

The Evil King was very shocked. He had been cooperating with the Demon Dragon Pavilion for a very long time and knew what kind of people they were. The manager behind the crystal ball was considered the person in charge of a region.

How powerful must the person he fears be? If this is really the case, then the plan must be reconsidered. Life and death are determined by fate; wealth and honor are in the hands of heaven. This time, Wuqu Academy has encountered trouble.

The Demon Dragon Pavilion's strength is not simple. Back when the evil cultivators were being hunted down by the major families, it was the Demon Dragon Pavilion that took action to save them and provided help to continuously expand. The growth of the evil cultivators has a lot to do with the Demon Dragon Pavilion.

He did not expect that the death of a Lan Mo could exchange for so much information. It was very worth it. It's just that he didn't know whether it could really threaten Wuqu Academy; he would have to wait and see.

After returning to Wuqu Academy, after a short rest, he was pulled into the conference room by Xing Tian. Sitting in this conference room were dozens of Sovereign Realm experts, both large and small.

These were the teachers after the merger of the two academies, managing all the affairs of the entire Wuqu Academy at present. Xing Tian said, "Acting Acting Dean Su Su Xian said that during his absence, I will serve as the acting Acting Acting Dean. This evil cultivator incident has caused a major impact. I want to hear everyone's opinions. Let's pool our wisdom; we must have an accurate answer."

One of the teachers said, "According to the current situation, the evil cultivators have very great ambitions. This time, it was a coincidence that we stumbled upon their operation."

"But for the evil cultivators, none of those hidden core personnel appeared, which is the biggest problem. I feel they are brewing a huge conspiracy."

"My suggestion is to find a way to get the major families to unite again and conduct an operation to see if we can unearth more evil cultivators."

Another teacher said somewhat unconvinced, "Acting Acting Acting Dean, I disagree with this view. Think about how much time and resources it takes to search for evil cultivators on a large scale every time."

"If we mobilize the major families to act, what if someone makes trouble and causes an impact? We must start from the overall situation."

Xing Tian was dizzy from everyone's talk. At this time, he asked, "Disciple, do you have any views?"

Chen Ang said, "Teachers, seniors, please don't argue. According to the current situation, generally speaking, we have a certain advantage. This time, we successfully shattered the evil cultivators' goal and gained the trust of the major families."

"It plays a vital role for the reorganized Wuqu Academy. My opinion is that we should focus on gathering intelligence. The number of evil cultivators is not large. After several rounds of encirclement and suppression, what remains are some core backbones."

"If they want to develop ordinary evil cultivators, they must find the disciples and family members of the major families. If we can observe carefully and screen earnestly, we will definitely have gains."

"We can stipulate that in the future, students of Wuqu Academy must be protected by special teachers when they go out. There must never be any situation of acting alone."

"If they are in groups, it will be difficult for the evil cultivators to take action. We should find a way to reach a connection with the Monster Forest. Although we have a hostile relationship with the monsters of the Monster Forest, having intelligence on the monsters can be a great help."

"Using all united forces to solve this crisis is the most important method at present. What do you think?"

Xing Tian was dizzy, but after his disciple said that, he also reacted and said, "I think what Chen Ang said makes a lot of sense. Okay, let's leave it at that for now. We will discuss other matters later."

"Teachers, sorry for the trouble these few days. Please carefully inspect the Monster Forest. The purpose this time is very simple: we must find a way to kill the evil cultivators lurking in the Monster Forest."

"Don't do anything else. There must still be evil cultivators in the Monster Forest. Keeping them is of no use. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xing Tian originally had very high prestige among the teachers. Since he had said this, there was no other way. The teachers immediately took action and carried out a cleanup of the Monster Forest.

Currently, apart from the Monster Forest, they would find ways to get the major families to contribute their strength. At this time, they had a certain influence on the major families, and they were very willing to help.

After several days of continuous efforts, after resolving the threat in the Monster Forest, things temporarily settled down. Although they didn't catch the core personnel, at least they ensured the safety of the students practicing in the Monster Forest.
