Qin Tian was running wildly through the forest, the sounds of pursuit intermittently coming from behind.

No matter how he escaped, it seemed he could never shake off the city guards chasing him.

He knew well that by now the southern camp should have already been alerted, and perhaps they had already dispatched light cavalry to swiftly chase after him!

”No time left, I must shake them off!”

Qin Tian gritted his teeth, deciding to exert all his True Qi to accelerate.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Suddenly, a figure dashed out from the side!

Qin Tian was startled and quickly channeled his True Qi to prepare for battle!

”Go quickly!”

The person stood about ten meters behind Qin Tian, lowered his voice to shout.

”Not an enemy?”

Qin Tian turned back to look. In the dark night of the forest, he could only see a vague shadow, and asked in surprise, ”Who are you? Why are you helping me?”

”No time to explain, just go!”

The person didn’t use their real voice but transmitted the words using True Qi!

Qin Tian vaguely saw that this person was wearing a mask, making it impossible to see their appearance.

At this moment, with this person suddenly coming to help, Qin Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed his curiosity, and said, ”Thank you for the help! Take care!”

After speaking, Qin Tian didn’t say much more, turned in a different direction, and ran towards the valley on the side.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Not three minutes after Qin Tian left, a violent sound of True Qi collision erupted from the forest behind him!

Without a doubt, that person and the city guards must have started fighting.

Thinking that this person voluntarily helped, they should have a well-devised plan.

So Qin Tian didn’t concern himself further, and without hesitation, quickly left.

...

After a night of storming, by dawn, Qin Tian was sitting quietly in front of a grave.

Behind him was a tombstone he had erected for Cao Taiji.

He went to buy a coffin and a stone stele, burying Cao Taiji at the foot of Wuming Mountain.

”Master, I will do as I say, and will surely avenge you!”

”As for that Ice Emperor... humph, regardless of whether I can succeed or not, from now on, I will spend my life striving to kill him!”

Qin Tian gazed into the distance, changed out of last night’s disguise, and put on the student attire of East Han Academy, slowly heading back there.

”Who was that person last night, really?”

”Why did they suddenly appear in that place to help me?”

”They knew I was Long Yin, yet they still helped me. Could they also be Long Yin?”

On the way, Qin Tian was puzzled over the mysterious person’s assistance last night.

Could it be that they were an old friend of Cao Taiji’s from Long Yin?

However, if they were an old friend of Cao Taiji’s, why, after meeting with Cao Taiji, was he caught by the City Lord Mansion, while that person was not?

Connecting the dots with Cao Taiji’s incident, Qin Tian couldn’t make sense of it no matter how hard he thought.

Now, in East Capital City, he felt truly on his own.

Amid the Soul Suppressing Hall, City Lord Mansion, military, Demon Clan spies, and Dragon Clan spies... Qin Tian, as a Long Yin estranged from the organization, felt somewhat helpless.

But, fearless, he embarked on a new journey carrying the mission of revenge!

...

”Qin Tian, where have you been these past two days? You missed classes, you know the teacher called roll?”

”Yes, it was terrifying. Do you know that last night a Long Yin person attacked the South City Gate, but luckily the military discovered them. Tsk tsk, Long Yin folks are really audacious nowadays, daring to show up openly as the top enemy of Wang Chao, and even attack the South City Gate, incredible!”

When Qin Tian returned to the dormitory, Wang Tinghu and Wang Haoran eagerly surrounded him.

”I went out to practice and lost track of time. Is everything okay?”

In the two days, the difference between when he left and now was like he was a completely different person.

Now, he needed to endure, needed to keep a low profile.

”No worries, we just received a temporary notice for a grade-level assembly, the teachers have some announcements.” Wang Haoran said with a grin, ”Qin Tian, I’m treating you to dinner tonight, haha, I broke through to the Peak of Primordial Pill!”

”Congratulations, sure.”

Qin Tian smiled faintly.

After lunch, all freshmen gathered for a meeting in the East Han Hall.

Standing on the stage at the front of the hall was the head teacher managing the first-year freshmen of East Han Academy, the chief instructor Yan Zhongjie.

Beside him, apart from the four class teachers, stood the deputy chief instructor Xu Junwei and Wu Jinming.

At this moment, Wu Jinming wore a furious expression on his face.

”Is everyone here?”

Yan Zhongjie’s expression wasn’t too pleasant. After tallying the numbers, he spoke loudly, ”Today, I’ve gathered you here to remind you all to prioritize your personal safety when you leave East Han Academy. Recently, assassins and killers from Long Yin, the Demon Clan, and the Dragon Clan have been frequently appearing in East Capital City, and all East Han Academy students could become their targets.”

”Students from our first-year Dragon Tiger Class, Ye Fan, and second-year student Zhang Yu, have been missing for two days now. Does anyone have any information on them?”

Yan Zhongjie looked at the students below the stage, each of whom shook their heads.

Wu Jinming said, ”If anyone has any information, please report it. Whether they’ve gone on a mission or gone out for training, we have no record. Fellow students, Ye Fan and Zhang Yu are students that East Han Academy is particularly focused on nurturing. As their classmates, if you know anything, do not hide it.”

Wu Jinming spoke earnestly, and it seemed he had a premonition that something ominous had happened to Ye Fan.

However, the students below the stage continued to shake their heads.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zhongjie quietly said to Wu Jinming, ”Teacher Wu, the guards at the East Han Academy saw the two of them leaving together two days ago and haven’t returned by today, and they hadn’t registered a mission either. I’m afraid... there’s little hope left.”

Wu Jinming gritted his teeth, ”If something indeed happened, Spiritual Mountain Academy will suffer a severe blow this time!”

He sighed heavily, but there was nothing he could do.

Ye Fan and Zhang Yu both came from Spiritual Mountain Academy, and this time, losing two people in the East Han Academy faction from Spiritual Mountain Academy was painful for Wu Jinming.

At this moment, Qin Tian, standing below the stage, wasn’t focused on Yan Zhongjie or Wu Jinming. Instead, his gaze was locked onto Xu Junwei, who stood silently aside!

This teacher, who appeared very stern and spoke little, and was extremely low-key, seemed familiar from the side to Qin Tian!

”Hiss... Could it be him? How is his build so similar to the person who helped me last night in the forest?!”

Although he hadn’t seen the person’s face clearly last night, he noticed their build, and comparing it to Xu Junwei now, there was almost no difference!

The more he looked, the more similar they appeared. Qin Tian frowned and murmured, ”Could it really be him? He wore a mask last night, meaning I must know him. Moreover, he used True Qi Transmission, suggesting that I’ve heard his voice and he was afraid I’d recognize him by it!”
