The divine beast recognized its master, and the dragon girl, destined to kill him, went to the spiri

"Have you seen Qing Ye?"

"Qing Ye? No, didn't Qing Ye participate in the trial with you yesterday?"

"Yeah, but I came back first."

"Excuse me, have you seen Qingye?"

"No."

……

Jiang Xu looked flustered, especially with a vague sense of panic in his heart. This was a feeling he had never experienced before, especially since there was still no news from Ye Wanqing.

Jiang Yuyan noticed from a distance that something was wrong with Jiang Xu's expression. He quietly came up behind him and slapped him on the shoulder. "Hey, Jiang Xu, what are you doing?"

Jiang Xu was already in a panic, and now he was suddenly frightened by Jiang Yuyan. At this moment, he could no longer suppress the strangeness in his heart, "What are you doing? Don't you know that scaring people can kill them? I don't have time to talk to you here."

Jiang Yuyan's eyebrows jumped. Although she had scared Jiang Xu more than once, he didn't react much each time. But this time he was so fierce. "You, what's wrong with you?"

"My master is missing!"

Jiang Yuyan paused. "Qingye? Qingye is such a grown-up, how could she disappear for no reason? I remember you guys were training hard to prepare for the competition with the freshmen from Scarlet Cloud Academy. Qingye is so amazing, she must have been out doing trials and lost track of time."

Jiang Xu also hoped so, but his heart was becoming more and more panicked, especially since he could no longer sense Hai Li's breath!

You know, he and Hai Li are of the same bloodline as the mermaid royal family, and are very familiar with the scent of each other's mermaid tears. Ever since he sensed something was wrong, he began to try to contact Hai Li, but there was still no news.

No, I can't keep searching blindly like this.

At this time, the dean's inner room

"Prince Su, thank you for coming to help our Cang Qiong Academy in the field of alchemy."

Li Heng personally poured a cup of tea for Su Shaohuai with a gentle expression.

"Dean Li, you're too polite. Scarlet Cloud Academy is a newly established academy. No one knows what the students there are like, whether they're friends or foes. Cang Qiong Academy's freshman competition is a way to protect us all. Shao Huai will definitely give his full support."

"Shao Huai has something I'd like to ask Dean Li. Shao Huai and Qing Ye from your academy are old acquaintances. I wonder which area of the freshman trials your academy plans to have Qing Ye participate in?"

Li Heng stroked his beard and said, "Young friend Qingye has his own ideas and plans, which are still unknown at the moment."

Just as Su Shaohuai was about to say something else, a familiar but extremely panicked voice rang out.

"Dean, Dean, Dean!"

Li Heng frowned slightly. "What a hurry! Hey? Jiang Xu, why are you here with me if you're not cultivating now?"

Jiang Xu came hurriedly, his brows slightly furrowed, his expression filled with anxiety and worry. "Dean, I'm requesting that some of the idle disciples in the academy go out and look for Qing Ye. I can't contact Qing Ye anymore."

"what?!"

Su Shaohuai stood up suddenly, "What on earth is going on!"

……

other side

Ye Wanqing felt as if she had fallen into a very deep dream, but she vaguely remembered that when she completely closed her eyes, she only saw an unrecognizable figure that was filled with a pure and strange aura.

It hurts, it hurts.

Ye Wanqing felt as if the blood in her body was being restrained by a strange force, yet it also seemed to be gradually piercing deep into her soul.

"woke up?"

Ye Wanqing's eyes suddenly opened, and she subconsciously wanted to summon Ningyu, but Ningyu was motionless and trapped in a formation not far away.

Her whole body was trapped under a big tree by unknown vines. The sharp vines pierced into her blood vessels, as if absorbing something from the outside.

The tree that bound and imprisoned Ye Wanqing seemed to become more lush and bloody with each passing moment.

"Long time no see, Miss Ye."

Not far away, an old man in a black robe was seen walking slowly towards them, holding a scepter. He was completely black, and his face was covered in wrinkles and dark spots, making it impossible to tell what he looked like. Behind him was a man, who was obviously the man in black who had just chased Ye Wanqing for the Mermaid's Tears.

Ye Wanqing's expression remained unchanged. Not many people knew her identity and were her enemies. She looked at the newcomer and said with a certainty, "I have long heard of your great name, the ancestor of Xinghui Nation."

"Hahahahaha, you are truly amazing, girl. If you were a member of the Ji royal family, I would definitely train you to be the next ruler of the Xinghui Nation. What a pity."

Ji Qi, the ancestor of Xinghui Nation, suddenly flew in front of Ye Wanqing, placed the scepter in his hand against Ye Wanqing's chest, his expression filled with hatred and disgust.

"It's a shame you keep trying to ruin my plans, Ye Wanqing. There's a road to heaven but you refuse to take it, and there's no door to hell but you keep barging in. Do you think you can escape?"

Ye Wanqing lowered her eyes, hiding the unknown emotions in her eyes. Although the ancestor of Xinghui Country was very old, he still had not reached the spiritual realm where he could ascend. It can be seen that his talent and ability were average, but he actually possessed formations and secret treasures that could restrain his own natal artifact.

Even the giant tree that imprisoned him was no ordinary one. It was even a demonic tree that could absorb his blood. If it weren't for his own innate divine fire, which could suppress him to a certain extent, he would have been drained of his blood by the demonic tree long ago.

She also had to figure out who was the person who had knocked her unconscious, and the person who had just vaguely appeared in front of her was definitely not the ancestor of the Xinghui Kingdom, but someone else.

You know, ever since she signed the contract with Qianji, she has become immune to all kinds of poisons to a certain extent, but now something that can make her dizzy has appeared, and she must figure out the weirdness of it.

Who is the person behind this?
