Chapter 641

These words were spoken by that masked young man.

Everyone at the academy recognized him; he was the Guest Minister Elder Ye Xiu of their Divine Prefecture Academy, and also the husband of Instructor Ye.

"Is Elder Ye Xiu really that bold?" he said, speaking before the lord of Huangjin City without the slightest courtesy.

However, those who had personally seen Elder Ye Xiu battle the undead in the ancient battlefield ruins were far more composed.

After all, Elder Ye Xiu's strength seemed not inferior to that of the lord of Huangjin City.

"Who are you?" Nan Gong Chang narrowed his eyes.

"Lord Nan Gong, this is our academy's newly arrived Guest Minister Elder this year, Ye Xiu."

Li Daoyun introduced him solemnly.

Ye Xiu?

He is Ye Xiu?

Rumor has it that in the ancient battlefield ruins, Ye Xiu fought the undead for less than three hundred rounds single-handedly. It was precisely because Ye Xiu blocked the front that Ye Qingran got the chance to use the power of the Chaos Qing Lian Seed to repel the undead.

So he is Ye Xiu!

At such a young age, does he already possess the power to oppose the undead?

"Elder Ye Xiu, so young and accomplished, could you not be from the ancient Ye Clan of Beimingzhou?"

Nan Gong Chang suppressed the anger in his heart and asked slowly.

The Ye Clan is a very ancient family of Beimingzhou, passed down for many years, acting low-key; its disciples never appear in the Divine Prefecture Academy, making it quite mysterious.

Ye Xiu bears the surname Ye, and at his young age his strength is already astonishing; he instinctively thought of the Ye Clan.

When the people of the academy heard Nan Gong Chang say that, they all turned their gazes toward Fu Hanxiu.

Could it be that the mysterious Elder Ye Xiu truly comes from the Ye Clan?

"Lord Nan Gong, you're overpraising him too much."

Ye Qingran's voice came drifting over.

Only hearing her raise her eyebrows, she then said: 'His family is from Niu Shihua Village, Hechuan Town, Heihe Prefecture, Donglin Country in the Central Region. They are cattle herders. When I met him, he was herding cattle in the fields.'

The crowd: '......'

Elder Ye Xiu used to herd cattle?

The crowd sized up Fu Hanxiu from head to toe, unable to associate such a handsome, graceful man with a cattle herder.

He, a cattle herder?

Fu Hanxiu's mouth twitched.

Even he hadn't expected Ye Qingran to say that.

But upon second thought, this damned woman, could she be scolding him as a cowherd?

Fu Hanxiu gritted his teeth. This woman is definitely doing it on purpose! When I get back, I'll see how I deal with her!

The newly arrived little companions of the Heavenly Class: "???"

"Xiao Hu, is your father really a cattle herder?"

Mu Qianqian asked curiously.

Xiao Hu was choked by the question, showing a bewildered expression, and turned his head to look at Xiao Chen.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, 'We've never even been to the Summit of Contending for Deer; could it all be a lie?'

As Mother said, in this world there are no shortage of men of poor condition who, to win a woman's heart, package themselves as lofty and grand.

His father couldn't be such a man, could he?

The more Xiao Hu thought about it, the more he felt it was possible!

Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, and he had a full head of black lines.

Seeing Xiao Chen not speak, Xiao Hu couldn't hold back: 'Xiao Chen, honestly tell me, is our family really from Niu Shihua Village? Could our father really be a cattle herder?'

Xiao Chen: '......'

What the heck is this!

"What nonsense are you spouting?!" Xiao Chen was utterly speechless.

Is Xiao Hu stupid? Didn't he hear that Mother was joking?

Looks like he must quickly take Xiao Hu back to the Summit of Contending for Deer, lest he daydream all day.

Being disturbed by Ye Qingran like this, Nan Gong Chang also couldn't confirm Ye Xiu's true origins.

However, even if Ye Xiu truly is a descendant of the Ye Clan, what of it?

Would Huangjin City still fear a mere fallen ancient clan?

Besides, Huangjin City is no longer what it used to be; after joining forces strongly with Dan Valley, in the vast Beimingzhou, what power could still be a match for Huangjin City?

"Mother!"

Nan Gong Han held Shangguan Rong, crying out loudly; Shangguan Rong, whose heart had been torn apart, had already lost her breath.

Nan Gong Chang's heart clenched.

His beloved woman died, killed by his unfilial son.

"Father, Nangong Mo killed Mother; hurry and kill him!"

Nan Gong Han pointed at Nangong Mo, his eyes brimming with hatred.

Nangong Mo looked coldly at all of this.

He doesn't regret killing Shangguan Rong at all; he even feels that killing her like this was too lenient for her!

Back then, his mother endured nearly three months of torment; if she hadn't been unable to let go of this son, she would have already committed suicide.

Just thinking of the suffering his mother once endured, his heart grew ever colder and harder.

Shangguan Rong, you deserve to die!

"Don't rush!"

When Nan Gong Cang said these words, a faint glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He personally descended upon the Divine Prefecture Academy today, not to kill Nangong Mo, but he has a more important plan.

As long as his plan is fulfilled, Nangong Mo's life isn't even within a single thought of his, is it?

Nan Gong Han also didn't say anything else. Because he knew what would happen next. Compared to that major event, his mother's life obviously wasn't that important.

At that very moment, a powerful aura pressed down from the horizon not far away, causing everyone to feel immense pressure.

The people of the Academy also felt this terrifying aura, and in unison they turned their gazes westward.

They're here!

A sharp gleam flashed across Nan Gong Cang's eyes.

Ye Qingran slightly lifted her head, gazing in that direction, while the corner of her mouth curled up into a faint, almost imperceptible arc.

Good, everyone who was supposed to come has arrived.

In the blink of an eye, that aura had closed in.

"Dan Valley, Ling Tian!"

His resonant voice boomed like thunder, making people dizzy and their ears ring.

Upon hearing the content clearly, everyone was shaken again.

Dan Valley, Ling Tian!

Ling Tian is the Valley Master of Dan Valley, after all!

He actually descended upon the Divine Prefecture Academy!

Soon, the visitors appeared within sight.

The group numbered only about ten, not many, but terrifyingly, they all possessed extremely profound auras, obviously all being experts.

Especially the leader, his aura was overpowering, on par with the lord of Huangjin City and the headmaster of the Divine Prefecture Academy.

This person is none other than the Lord of Dan Valley, Ling Tian!
