When you are doing something that goes too well, you must be more alerted.
This is the lesson that Yan Chao has learnt over the past years.
Everything going too smooth always means that someone is fanning the fire behind.
Gao Ge is driving the car. Yan Chao stares at him with narrowed eyes, whose look is beaming with confusion and doubt.
He has a feeling that something is wrong but after thinking for a while, he can’t figure out what goes wrong.
Nevertheless, he is relieved soon.
After all, they are arriving in Dongzhou. When they reach Dongzhou, everything is settled. Even if there is something wrong, he doesn’t have to worry about it.
They come to a fork in the road when they are about to enter Dongzhou.
Yan Chao speaks.
“Take the left side.”
Gao Ge looks at him and asks in confusion, “This is not the direction to the downtown of Dongzhou!”
Actually, the relationship between Gao Ge and Yan Chao is quite subtle.They take advantage of each other.Gao Ge uses Yan Chao to help him enter the Heaven School.Yan Chao uses Gao Ge to consolidate his position in the Heaven School. If Gao Ge can heal the grandmaster, the credit will go to him and he will be promoted.This is rather obvious without much thinking.Finally, when they stop, Gao Ge realizes that he has got out of the maze array.Before them there is a grand gate and red wall of antique flavor that is about 2 or 3 meters high.At the gate there are seven or eight people standing sentry. They are dressed in the same way as the two leading men, who are wearing a white gown and appear quite clean.Steered by the two men, Gao Ge and Yan Chao enter the Heaven School without being examined. As Gao Ge looks afar, he sees row upon row of buildings and pavilions as well as h
Gao Ge finally understands.Regardless of others’ feeling about the Heaven School, at least the men of the Heaven School all feel good about themselves and regard their school as a decent and noble school.Why don’t these people think about the reason why the Heaven School has aroused the suspicion of the Dragon Court?Of course, Gao Ge won’t speak out his real thought. He only finds it quite funny.After a while, the old man puts the bottle aside and looks at Gao Ge from the height, saying, “Do you really have a way to heal our grandmaster?”“I am not sure about it.” Gao Ge says casually.In the hall, the old men, who give off an immense stress, all fly into a rage, greatly overwhelming Gao Ge like a flood at once. Gao Ge is shocked that there are so many capable men in such a second-class school, at least a few cultivators at the realm of Strength Protection. He has underestimated the Heaven School indee
A few students of the Heaven School wearing white clothes walk in, their face beaming with smiles. There are three boys and two girls, who look quite young.“I was wondering who was boasting. I didn’t expect it was you, Uncle Wangyue!” One of the men, with a jade pendant hanging at his waist, comes to Yan Chao and gives a pat on his shoulder, saying with a sneer.Upon the sight of these people, Yan Chao becomes sober instantly.In a rush he stands up and greets them with joined hands, saying with a forced smile, “Senior brothers and sisters, I am so sorry. I was a bit carried away for drinking too much with my friend…”The man suddenly kicks Yan Chao down, saying angrily, “Who are your seniors? Hum! If the sovereign and the honorable elders know about this, they will blame us for being impolite.”“Yes, you are right. It’s my bad…” Kicked down as he is, Yan Chao still gets up quickly with the unchanged smile.
“Shanyao, just come at me. Don’t get him involved…” Yan Chao is still vomiting blood while getting up.The dark boy frowns. He pulls over Shanyao, whispering, “Shanyao, forget about it. If you really beat him to death, we will be in trouble.”When people are angry, they won’t take the advice like that. After all, it sounds more like an incitement. Maybe that may work on mature people, but Shanyao is definitely not mature.He says furiously, “What do you mean? What if I kill this bastard today?”The dark boy says with a forced smile, “Shanyao, I didn’t mean that…” Actually, he doesn’t talk to Shanyao in such a manner at ordinary times but he knows that anything he says now is just adding fuel to fire. If the matter is really none of his business, he won’t care about it. However, if Yan Chao really dies here, the other four people including him will be regarded as accomplices of Shanyao.Therefore, the rest three people
The dark-skinned boy knows that it is not appropriate for him to say too much. After all, when they were at Yan Chao’s room, his action has made Shanyao a bit disgruntled.Shanzhu doesn’t care about that. She says in a low voice, “Isn’t this too over? Do we really have to kill them?”Shanzha looks at Shanzhu with a bit of jealousy and annoyance in her eyes.“Shanzhu, you are too innocent. For someone like Yan Chao, death is not to be regretted. Do you remember how arrogant he was when he just joined the Heaven School? How rudely did he treat us? Didn’t you see how he bullied the peers? Moreover, in order to join the School, he even betrayed his own family. Doesn’t such a person deserve to die?”“Yeah, exactly.” Shanyao also shows support for Shanzha, “Shanzhu, it’s none of your business. No need to worry about it.”Shanzhu wishes to speak but stops on a second thought.She really wants to ask these people.
Shanzha is quite frustrated.Through the window, she can see that Yan Chao is still alive.She is wondering why Gao Ge and Yan Chao don’t have supper.Since their plot cannot proceed, she can only leave, dejected and despondent.However, she is not aware that a man is following her.When she arrives at the designated place, Shanyao and another young student are waiting there, without the dark-skinned boy and Shanzhu.They have waited there for long. When they see that Shanzha comes back, they hasten to ask her.“How is it? Are the two bastards dead?”Shanzha shakes her head, “No.”Shanyao is shocked and confused, “How is it possible?”“I don’t know. Is it because the poison is not deadly enough?” Shanzha says in confusion.“It’s impossible!” The other young student says in a hurry, “I stole the poison from the pharmacy. It can even kill 50 ti
Yan Chao looks a bit flurried and almost falls down for not paying attention to the threshold when running into the room.“Oh my God! Oh my God!”Gao Ge looks at Yan Chao with a frown, saying unhappily, “Calm down and tell me what’s wrong.”Yan Chao says in a trembling voice, “Shanyao and his peers are dead!”“Oh.” Gao Ge feels that Yan Chao is such an idiot.Doesn’t he guess what Gao Ge went out for last night?What is the surprise of Shanyao and his peers’ death?“You did it?” Looking at the calm face of Gao Ge, Yan Chao is suddenly dumbfounded.Gao Ge darts a look at him and gets off bed to put on his shoes. He pours some cold water into the basin. Having washed his face with the water, Gao Ge feels quite refreshed.“Did you see that I did it?” Gao Ge wrings out the towel, uses it to wipe his face, and turns around to say to Yan Chao.Yan Chao shakes h
Faced with Gao Ge’s question, the factotum falls into silence and even becomes flurried.Shanzhu and the dark-skinned boy look each other in the eye. They both see the helplessness in each other’s eyes.Out of their expectation, Gao Ge’s confidence to deny the charge comes from that.Undoubtedly, Gao Ge is quite smart. He uses this way to disclose what happened yesterday, making him and Yan Chao the vulnerable ones. Now there is no adequate evidence to prove that they are the murderers. Even if there is, Daozhi may not just kill them directly. After all, it is not a deliberate murder but a homicide in self-defense.“Answer the question. What are you hesitating for?” Daozhi becomes furious at the silence of the factotum. He immediately realizes that the truth may not be as he has learned. Faced with the sovereign and other honorable elders, he feels a bit disgraced.The factotum has no other choice but to keep kowtowing
