"Oh? You're also studying alchemy with Mr. Mo Jun. What a coincidence! I also studied with him back then. Aren't Mr. Mo Jun's classes very interesting?"

Jiang Liujing said "hmm".

"But his final exams here are really weird. When I came to class, he actually asked me to build a coffin that fit his wife's body shape and ensured that the body would not decay. I've never met anyone who loves his wife as much as he does. If his wife hadn't passed away, he definitely wouldn't have taught us so hard."

"why?"

"Because if his wife was still around, he would definitely just be busy with her." Taiqi laughed and raised an eyebrow at Jiang Liujing. "I can see that you've never been in a relationship. When the person you love most is around, it's hard not to focus on her."

Jiang Liujing said: "I really haven't talked about it."

"That's right." Taichi clapped his hands and said happily, "I always say that I'm good at judging people."

Jiang Liujing closed his eyes. He didn't expect that this person had such a cold body temperature, but was actually a chatterbox who could talk to himself for more than ten minutes without stopping.

Several people were rushing towards a water source.

According to the information provided by the elf girl Wulier, the "Source of Life" is indeed located in the Canglong Mountains, but its location has been moving and changing, and it usually appears near a water source.

Among the six of them, only Jiang Liujing was of the water element, and he unhesitatingly took on the responsibility of sensing the water source and guiding the direction.

Just now, he sensed the existence of a small lake nearby, so he led everyone in that direction.

However, when they were halfway there, they suddenly heard a faint chirping sound in their ears.

The voice contained a lot of information, and people could immediately hear the weakness of the owner of the voice and the fear he felt when facing the outside world.

"It's the cub of a fantasy beast." Mo Ya had been to the fantasy beast garden quite often recently, so he recognized it immediately.

He frowned and speculated, "Is there a mercenary group hunting cubs?" He looked at Jiang Liujing and asked for his opinion, "Should we go over and take a look?"

Jiang Liujing said calmly, "This is the shortest route to the water source. If you don't go here, you'll have to go around it."

"Let's go. I don't want to waste time going around in circles." Andway shrugged and took the lead to stride forward.

He swept the golden spear in his hand, and in a few strokes, all the branches and leaves blocking the way were cut off, opening up a bright path for the people behind.

The scene ahead was suddenly exposed to everyone's sight.

In an open space formed by the intersection of several trees, a very young mythical beast cub was rolling around in the grass in a panic.

Its body was covered with wounds, and every time it rolled, a large amount of blood oozed out of the wounds. Its snow-white fur had completely turned into a dirty color mixed with gray-brown and dark red.

As it rolled, the stone hit the wound, tearing it deeper, but it didn't dare to stop at all. Because if it stopped for a moment, the weapon behind it would mercilessly pierce its body.

That's how it got those wounds.

"Woo——"

Although it tried hard to escape, the terrifying blade caught up with it and left another deep scar on the little beast's bruised body.

Bright red blood splattered everywhere, white bones were exposed in the air, and the phantom beast cub let out a shrill scream, followed by the cheers, whistles and laughter of the people watching, which were as amused as thunder.

Jiang Liujing paused as he was about to take a step forward.

He raised his eyes and looked forward, seeing a dozen young students wearing the same uniform, playing with various weapons in their hands, all stained with scarlet blood.

Noticing the approach of others, the students' laughter subsided a little.

One of them stepped forward and lifted the dying mythical beast cub from the ground, staring at them unfriendlyly: "What are you doing?"

Andewei, who was walking in front, sneered: "What? This Canglong Mountain Range is yours? And you don't allow people to pass by?"

"Also," he said, his gaze fixed on the phantom beast cub, which was breathing more than it was breathing, and his tone suddenly turned cold, "Intentionally abusing the weak is something only a tasteless piece of trash would do."

Andway never despises people who bully the weak.

The students in front of him were obviously deliberately abusing the phantom beast cub, and they happened to step on his minefield.

More than ten students opposite were angered by his words.

"Ha, we caught the fantasy beast, we can do whatever we want with it, it's none of your business?" The young man holding the fantasy beast cub also sneered.

As if on purpose, he lifted the phantom beast cub into the air, allowing everyone present to clearly see every detail of the wound on its body.

The phantom beast cub regained some consciousness from its coma, opened its eyes and mouth with difficulty, but before it could make a sound, it felt a strong force on its neck.

With a crisp "crack", its body fell down limply.

Andway's face suddenly turned as dark as ink, and his expression showed that a storm was about to come.

The young man waved the now-dead cub in his hand mockingly, saying, "Who told it not to comply with the contract? If you make the wrong choice, you have to bear the consequences."

"You can kill it directly, but you don't have to use this tricky method." Andway said in a deep voice.

"It's just the survival of the fittest, the survival of the fittest. We're stronger than it, so we can kill it however we want. Blame it for being too weak. But you guys are students, right? Which school did you come from? How can you be so kindhearted? You even care about the life and death of a fantasy beast?"

He sneered and looked at the group of people, trying to find their identification marks.

When he saw Jiang Liujing among the few people, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then more greed surged.

"Oh, and brought a beauty..."

"Roar--!!!"

The trees were shaken by the sudden terrifying roar, and a large number of golden leaves fell down, making a rustling sound.

Everyone was shocked, and then they saw a huge figure rushing out from the depths of the woods, violently destroying all the trees along the way, and the target was clearly heading straight here!

As the distance shortened, everyone could see that her hair stood up like steel needles, her eyes were filled with dense red bloodshot, and her aura was obviously in a state of extreme anger.

This is an adult fantasy beast. Judging from the color of its fur, it is most likely the mother of the killed fantasy beast cub.

When its eyes caught the tragically dead cub and it realized the death of its child, the roar from the phantom beast's mouth instantly became filled with grief and anger, and the roar was so loud that it hurt people's eardrums.

The young men's faces turned pale, and the leader turned around and angrily questioned the others, "Didn't you say you had led them away? How come they came here so quickly?"
