At this time, Tang Yuan's momentum had dissipated, and there was silence in the patrol hall.
Shang Xia smiled nonchalantly and said, "All the surviving members of House B heard about this in the valley that day."
Seeing that Tang Yuan's face was about to turn into the color of pig's liver, Shang Xia continued: "Don't worry, supervisor, the students have already told all the students that matters of life and death should not be leaked at will. If there is really someone who is trying to confuse the public, the news will have been spread out long ago.
, won’t wait until now.”
Tang Yuan took a deep look at the young man in the hall, his cold eyes swept over everyone present like a vulture, and said coldly: "Tang will report it to Ji Shan. Before that, no one can do this."
The gate, let’s kill it together!”
Shang Xia did not think that the top management of Tongyou Academy was unaware of the news that Kou Chongxue was seriously injured.
Although Tang Yuan looked panicked just now, that was not necessarily because he was frightened by the news.
The greater possibility is that such fatal news was leaked!
Not only did younger generations like Shang Xia know about it, but what was even more frightening was that his source of information actually came from the gossip of Cangling martial arts cultivators.
what does that mean?
There is definitely a mole in Tongyou Academy!
Moreover, the mole's position in the academy must be high, otherwise it would be impossible for him to have access to such fatal information.
What’s even more frightening is that there is something wrong with Tongyou Academy, and even the entire Youzhou’s Qingtian White Jade Pillar, and the Purple Golden Beam that supports the sea. If Cangling Martial Cultivator in Siling Mountain doesn’t take the opportunity to cause trouble, he will be truly haunted.
.
You must know that Tongyou Peak is currently facing a severe situation.
But is this because Liu Jitang took people out privately, leaving Tongyou Peak defenseless and attracting the covetousness of Siling Mountain?
Or was it a deliberate siege because Siling Mountain received the news that Kou Chongxue was seriously injured?
There is a fundamental difference between the two.
Such a difference may directly lead to Tongyou Academy's serious misjudgment of the situation in the two battlefields.
For now, Tongyou Peak, under the auspices of Ji Wenlong, is obviously dealing with the first possibility.
But now Shang Xia told Tang Yuan that Cangling martial arts cultivator had already known the news that Kou Chongxue was seriously injured, so the nature of this conflict had completely changed.
All the countermeasures taken previously on Tongyou Peak may have fallen into Cangling Martial Cultivator's calculations.
This is what makes the patrol supervisor really panic.
Just after Tang Yuan left in a hurry, the patrol hall fell into an eerie silence.
But at this time, everyone's eyes were looking at Shang Xia from time to time.
Shang Xia sat down at the foot of Shang Quan. His eyes fell on the patrolling deacon opposite, and he cupped his hands and said, "May I ask the teacher what you call him?"
In Tongyou Academy, as long as they are not ordinary students, it is always right to call them "teacher".
The deacon smiled slightly unnaturally and said, "Sang Youqi, the deacon of a certain patrol hall."
"It turns out to be Teacher Sang. Nice to meet you!"
Shang Xia heard that there were three deacons in the patrol hall, but now only this one was present.
Considering that Uncle Quan told him that some of the elite patrolmen were transferred, could it be that the other two patrollers had already left Tongyou Peak with Liu Jitang?
Shang Xia nodded towards Deacon Sang, and then whispered to Shang Quan next to him: "Uncle Quan, what is the 'Rose Meeting'? Does it sound like a flower appreciation meeting?"
"Ahem", Yuan Zilu next to Shang Quan coughed twice.
Shang Quan looked at Yuan Zilu, then at Deacon Desang who was waiting opposite him, then glanced at the patrol captains behind him, and said with a smile: "Since it has been mentioned today, there is no need to hide it.
It’s necessary to hide it, they will all know about it in the future anyway.”
Shang Quan's words seemed more like he was speaking to the two Wuyijing deacons present.
Neither Yuan Zilu nor Sang Youqi said a word.
Shang Quan smiled and said: "You may be unfamiliar with the 'Rose Club', but when it comes to the 'Remnant of the Five Surnames', I think some of you must have heard of it, right?"
Among the several patrol captains, some of the older ones had obvious changes in their expressions.
"'The remnants of the Five Surnames'? Are they rebellious people from the Five Surnames family?" Shang Xia asked curiously.
Shang Quan opened his mouth, and when he was about to explain, his whole face suddenly became stiff.
A majestic and domineering aura came instantly, covering everyone in the lobby. Shang Xia felt that his whole body and his thoughts had stiffened.
"The 'remnants of the five surnames' are indeed rebellious people from extraordinary families, but among the five surnamed families in Youzhou, they only refer to one of them!"
Outside the patrol hall, a very tall and burly old man, with half black and half white hair neatly combed back, walked in like a dragon and a tiger with his hands behind his back.
There seemed to be a strange charm about him. The moment he walked in, almost everyone's attention was focused on him. Everyone's eyes moved as he moved, and they even ignored those who followed him.
A group of warriors behind him.
This is the helmsman of the Ji family, the head of the four major families in Tongyou City, the first deputy headmaster of Tongyou Academy, and the second master after Kou Chongxue recognized by the extraordinary warriors in Youzhou—Ji Wenlong!
After Ji Wenlong entered the lobby, he went straight to Tang Yuan's original seat, where a brand new chair had already been prepared.
When he sat down with his boss, everyone in the lobby woke up from the suffocating state just now.
Then Shang Xia and others noticed that there were many warriors walking in behind Ji Wenlong, and among these people, not even Tang Yuan was at the front.
Everyone in the seats hurriedly stood up and gave up their seats.
At this time, Shang Quan and Shang Xia's eyes had fallen on an old man in his fifties with a short beard walking on the far right among the three people in front.
"Uncle Ke!"
"Fifth Grandpa!"
Shang Quan and Shang Xia greeted the old man in low voices.
The old man just nodded and took the first seat on Ji Wenlong's right side.
Seeing this, Shang Quan and Shang Xia quickly stood behind the old man.
The rest of the people also sat down one after another, but Shang Xia looked at the seats of everyone present thoughtfully.
Suddenly, Shang Xia suddenly felt gazes falling on him from all directions, like needle pricks.
At this time, no one in the patrol hall was full of momentum, and no one suppressed him with martial arts will. However, Shang Xia felt an invisible pressure shrouding him. Compared with Tang Yuan's previous momentum, it was even more oppressive.
It made him tremble.
At this time, Shang Ke, who was sitting in front of Shang Xia, suddenly waved his palm in front of him and said calmly: "Children are curious and reckless, please don't make things difficult for children."
Shang Xia suddenly felt that the invisible pressure dissipated, as if it had been dispersed by Shang Ke's waving palm just now, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
At this time, Shang Kewei turned around and scolded: "You have alerted so many people. What are you waiting for? Why don't you tell everything you know? If you dare to hide anything, even the merchants will not be able to protect you.
!”
Shang Xia quickly said "yes" and then recounted the conversation he heard between the two Fengyan tribe warriors in the valley.
Even though everyone had heard a rough idea from Tang Yuan before, they were already prepared for this. However, after hearing Shang Xia's personal account of the incident, the patrol hall still fell into an unspeakable silence.
After a long time, a somewhat unconfident laugh came, and a middle-aged man sitting across from Shang Ke said: "Those two Cangling martial arts cultivators can be easily attacked and killed by Shang Xian's nephew, they are just ordinary people."
They are just low-level martial arts cultivators. Moreover, you can tell by their names that they are not the 'Yan' surname representing the pure blood of the Fengyan tribe. How can they know the real inside story? Maybe..."
"Okay, stop saying these self-deceiving words!"
Ji Wenlong, who was at the head, interrupted the speaker's words mercilessly, making the middle-aged man look embarrassed.
Shang Quan whispered next to him: "That person just now was Ji Min, a martial arts master stationed at Tongyou Peak by the Ji family."
Shang Xia nodded slightly, and then heard someone ask cautiously: "Chief Ji Shan, Chief Kou Shan... is he really injured?"
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Ji Wenlong, who was at the head.
This is what everyone really cares about.
Shang Quan took the opportunity to continue whispering in Shang Xia's ear: "The one who just spoke is Zhao Yang, the deacon of the Tibetan Scripture Cave."
Shang Xia nodded and said, "I just met him before."
As the true core figure of Tongyou City, if anyone truly knows Kou Chongxue's true situation, it must be Ji Wenlong.
Ji Wenlong's expression was so calm that it was impossible to see through what he was thinking. He even said with a hint of indifference: "You don't need to know about this!"
In the lobby, everyone has different expressions on their faces.
At this time, Ji Wenlong's eyes fell on the fourth person on the left and said, "What news is there from the Department of World Affairs? When will Qian Sitong come back?"
"Li Zengyu, the deacon of the Department of World Affairs, and Qian Sitong are his supervisors."
After Shang Quan finished speaking, he paused and added: "Qian Sitong left with Liu Jitang."
Shang Xia nodded. Although he didn't know the person, he had heard of the name Qian Sitong, one of the four directors of the Department of World Affairs.
Faced with Ji Wenlong's inquiry, Li Zengyu, the deacon of the World Affairs Department, seemed a little nervous. He stood up and said, "Apart from the news about martial law in Tongyou City, there is nothing unusual. Manager Qian... I can't get in touch with you."
Ji Wenlong raised his head and glanced at everyone, and said: "Let's talk about it. Since we are all gathered together today, let's just tell everyone what they know. Now... it is no longer the time to hide it."
After a brief silence, a rather capable-looking middle-aged man sitting in the third seat from the left stood up and said, "Then Yuan is making some excuses. Please tell me if I'm wrong."
After saying that, the middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said: "First, let's talk about the situation we are facing now."
"If it is true as Shang Xia said just now that Kou Shanchang is seriously injured and Yueji will join forces with the Cangling martial arts cultivator in Siling Mountain, then our situation at this time may be extremely dangerous."
"First of all, Chief Kou Shan is seriously injured. Facing the threat that the Rose Society may attack at any time, Tongyou City has no time to take care of itself. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get reinforcements from the academy in the future."
"Secondly, Deputy Mountain Chief Liu left and took away nearly half of the martial arts masters in Tongyou Peak, leaving the defense of Tongyou Peak greatly empty. Although Chief Ji arrived in time to take charge, once Siling Mountain attacks with all its strength,
, and we can’t get reinforcements from the college..."
Having said this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
