Chapter 2603: Chapter 2606: Nothing Hurts More Than a Dead Heart

Seeing the crowd of enraged people, Ouyang Song was baffled. What was happening? He was being shouted at to get out by students from a primary academy?

”Dear students, please go back and continue your cultivation. We will handle this matter!”

Jian Cangqiong took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and spoke loudly.

”Chancellor, why is he here? Is he here to persuade Senior Jiang to return?”

A student loudly inquired, and the crowd of students fell silent, staring intently at Jian Cangqiong.

Jian Cangqiong turned to look at Ouyang Song, his eyes clearly meaning: you answer them yourself.

”This...”

Ouyang Song hesitated for a moment, forcing a smile: ”Dear students, we will consider this proposal, definitely consider it.”

”What proposal? It’s your duty to do this!”

”Exactly, it’s your duty!”

”Bastard, if you’re not here to ask Senior Jiang back, what are you doing here? Get lost!”

”Get lost!”

The students shouted intensively in anger.

Ouyang Song’s face turned ugly, but his eyes were filled with helplessness, looking at Jian Cangqiong for help.

He was at a loss. He had never encountered such a situation. As one of the eight Great Elders of Changling Academy’s outer division, any primary academy would treat him as an honored guest. But here...

Sigh!

Jian Cangqiong sighed, just about to say something, when a puzzled voice sounded.

”What happened?”

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two figures flickered and appeared before everyone.

”Meet the Little Princess!”

Jian Cangqiong was stunned for a moment, hurriedly bowing to the newcomers with Ouyang Song.

It was Cheng Huang’er and Elder Feng, a pair of an elder and a young one.

”What’s going on here?”

Cheng Huang’er looked at the furious students, then at Ouyang Song, revealing a knowing look: ”You all know that Meng Changde of Changling Academy’s main branch used Elixirs to hire an assassin to kill Jiang Chen before the competition?”

”What?”

Jian Cangqiong was shocked, looking incredulously at Cheng Huang’er.

”What?”

”That shameless bastard even wants to hire an assassin to kill Senior Jiang?”

”Bastard! Changling Academy’s scum!”

”Ouyang Song, get out of the academy!”

”Scum, get out!”

The students and instructors were instantly furious, cursing once more.

Buzz buzz buzz!

A burst of aura shot straight to the sky, with hundreds of students and instructors erupting with Great Dao Divine Light, making the whole Southern Maniac Mountain colorful.

Swoosh swoosh!

Two figures suddenly appeared in the sky, two Late Integration Realm auras soaring up.

Tong Hai coldly looked at Ouyang Song, saying in a deep voice: ”Elder Ouyang, Changlin Academy does not welcome people from Changling Academy, please leave immediately!”

”Leave!”

Tong He yelled.

Zzzzzap!

Lightning converged above Ouyang Song’s head, seemingly ready to strike down.

Ouyang Song’s face changed completely, ignoring the students’ reactions, clasping his fist to Cheng Huang’er urgently: ”Little Princess, what is going on here?”

Cheng Huang’er looked confusedly at the students, then at Ouyang Song, feeling like she might have said something wrong.

However, she didn’t think much of it; after all, she was just stating the facts: ”During the abandoned plains incident, Lin Guanghui hid among the crowd and tried to assassinate Jiang Chen’s friends during the battles. After the fight, Jiang Chen, in fury, slayed Lin Guanghui. Meng Changde, knowing his disciple was killed, wanted to punish Jiang Chen, but Elder Jiu intervened at the time.”

”After returning to the academy, Meng Changde and Meng Youyuan approached the Taiyuan Chancellor to get Jiang Chen on the academy’s bounty list, but when Elder Zhu and Elder Jiu’s apprentice teacher happened to go to see the Taiyuan Chancellor, they overheard and the four of them started fighting. Meng Youyuan was seriously injured, and Meng Changde’s Dao Seed was shattered by Hu Yiqiu!”

”The Dao Seed shattered!?”

Ouyang Song exclaimed in surprise. A Unity Realm stage expert having their Dao Seed shattered, at worst, would regress to the Void Refinement realm and never reach the Unity Realm again, and at worst, it could mean total ruin or even death.

Cheng Huang’er frowned, giving Ouyang Song a strange look, and said: ”This matter was quite a scandal back then, you didn’t know?”

”I returned to the academy and was in seclusion to stabilize my realm. I just came out and heard about another attack on Changlin Academy, and people from the academy had set up a formation using pseudo-dao treasures to repel the enemy, so I was sent to fill the Dao treasure’s power.”

Ouyang Song said with a bitter face, internally seething, dammit, no wonder everyone is pushing this off, a bunch of bastards!

”After the battle, Elder Zhu was summoned by Zhao Zun, Elder Jiu went into seclusion, Meng Youyuan into seclusion to heal, and Meng Changde to heal. Recently, Meng Changde came out of seclusion, took some Elixirs, and left the academy. We received information that Meng Changde hired several desperados with Elixirs to assassinate Jiang Chen, so Elder Zhu and I came to check.”

Cheng Huang’er continued explaining.

Ouyang Song’s face turned grim and he gritted his teeth: ”And where is Meng Changde?”

”He disappeared!”

Cheng Huang’er’s face also turned unpleasant: ”Not only did Meng Changde disappear, when our people found out and went to Changling Academy to question Meng Youyuan, he wasn’t found there; it turns out he wasn’t in seclusion and had also disappeared!”

”Disappeared? Does this mean they’re hiding, planning to kill Jiang Chen?”

Jian Cangqiong’s face was livid with anger, saying with boiling murderous intent: ”Great job Meng Youyuan, great job Meng Changde, great job Changling Academy’s Vice Chancellor, great job Changling Academy’s Elixir Branch Chancellor, just great!”

The students quietly watched Cheng Huang’er and the others. Gradually, some people left, dispersed, even Zhang Qian and others on alert left, knowing Cheng Huang’er’s arrival surely meant releasing Jiang Chen - protection was no longer necessary.

”This... they...”

Ouyang Song looked puzzledly at the leaving students, then turned to Jian Cangqiong.

”Alas! There’s no greater sorrow than a heart’s death. The students are angry, rebuking, and cursing, all without complete disappointment towards Changling Academy. But now, they don’t have any attachment left, they’ve lost hope completely. From today onward, Changlin Academy will not have a single student going to Changling Academy. Even if Jiang Chen urges them to, they might at most just verbally agree.”

Jian Cangqiong spoke indifferently, with a look of disappointment in his eyes.

Swoosh swoosh!

Two golden figures appeared beside Jian Cangqiong.

”My respects to the two seniors.”

Jian Cangqiong bowed to Jin Ang and the other person.

”From now on, Changlin Academy students entering the Abandoned Plains will be accompanied by members of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan.”

Jin Ang spoke solemnly.

”Not just us, out of the eight chieftains of the Abandoned Plains... now seven, among whom are Lu Xian, the Grand Marshal of Wind-Thunder Valley, and Yan Li, the second Marshal, who share life-and-death bonds with Jiang Chen. The elite team of Wind-Thunder Valley owes Jiang Chen several lives, and the entire settlements of the Abandoned Plains owe Jiang Chen a debt of gratitude.”

Jin Ming continued, with a gentle smile: ”Entering the Abandoned Plains and calling out to be Jiang Chen’s classmate, basically nobody dares provoke them, because these people are either Jiang Chen’s friends or they’ve been too afraid after being killed by Jiang Chen!”
