Gu Chen felt happy when he heard this, but on the surface he answered calmly.
"It's nothing. It's just that since I came to Zhenwu Academy, I have often heard about the reputation of Demon King Sun Jinming, so I am a little curious."
Shi Jian didn't have any doubts when he heard this and nodded. "Sun Jinming is indeed remarkable. He is a recognized genius of the Nanling Demon Clan."
"I heard that this person has a hot temper and is very bellicose. Is that true?"
Gu Chen seemed to ask casually.
"Indeed."
A strange look appeared on Shi Jian's face, "The last time I met him, he actually wanted to compete with me. Later, he knew that I had not yet entered the king's realm, so he gave up."
Gu Chen was silent. In this case, Zhu Yilun was not making random speculations about the Demon King. If Sun Jinming met Jiang Yige, a Taoist disciple of the Heavenly Court, he might actually take the initiative to stir up trouble.
"Brother Chen, is there something on your mind?"
Shi Jian saw that Gu Chen was worried and asked.
Gu Chen came back to his senses and shook his head. "No, I was just thinking about when I would be able to have the grace of the Demon King."
"This kind of thing cannot be rushed. In terms of age, the Demon King is much older than us. When we reach his age, we may not be without his achievements. Brother Chen, don't belittle yourself."
Shi Jian said this not only to Gu Chen, but also to himself.
As a member of the holy bloodline of the Stone Clan, he is confident that his talent will never be worse than that of Sun Jinming.
"Brother Shi is right."
Gu Chen smiled.
The two had a great conversation, and Shi Jian didn't leave until midnight. Gu Chen felt that he had gained a lot.
The next day, Gu Chen stayed in the library building to work while consciously collecting information about Sun Jinming.
People came and went in the library, and he got to know some people. From their mouths, he learned more about Sun Jinming.
"Sun Jinming has a withdrawn personality. Not to mention attending gatherings organized by humans, he sometimes ignores gatherings organized by monsters."
"It is indeed doubtful that such a person suddenly attended a party at Qingfeng Xiaozhu three months ago."
Gu Chen discovered that Zhu Yilun and what he reported were almost true. Jiang Yige's disappearance seemed to point more and more towards the demon king.
However, he was full of doubts in his heart, and he always felt that things were not that simple.
Just two days later, when he was thinking about finding an opportunity to get in touch with the Demon King, a shocking news came.
"Ye Qingshuang was attacked by someone, and now her life is in danger!"
"Really or not, how could this happen? She is a key student of our college!"
"It's absolutely true. It is said that Vice President Qi was alarmed. The college sent many teachers to track down the murderer. Unfortunately, the incident happened outside the college and no clues were found!"
Many students who came to the library were talking about it. When Gu Chen heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Everything was fine, how could Ye Qingshuang be attacked by someone?
Is someone seeking revenge, or is there something fishy going on?
A flash of inspiration flashed in Gu Chen's mind, and he vaguely understood.
He left the library building almost immediately. There were some things that could only be determined after seeing Ye Qingshuang's situation.
Zhenwu Academy is very big, and Gu Chen didn't know where Ye Qingshuang was placed, so he had no choice but to find Mu Ziyu.
"I didn't expect you to come right away as soon as something happened to Qingshuang. That's fine, I was planning to interrogate you."
When Mu Ziyu saw Gu Chen, there was vague hostility in her beautiful eyes.
"How is she doing now? Can I see her?"
Gu Chen said calmly.
"Don't worry, answer me a few questions first."
Mu Ziyu was completely interrogating a prisoner at this moment, carefully questioning where Gu Chen was and what he was doing when Ye Qingshuang's accident happened.
She knows Qingshuang very well. She usually has a noble character and may have offended many people, but this has never happened to her.
After the incident, she and many teachers in the college immediately conducted an investigation and investigated the students who might be the murderers, including Ling Xiaoxiao.
It turned out that none of them were possible, so Mu Ziyu immediately thought of Gu Chen.
Although Gu Chen was introduced by junior sister Lan Chu, she was not familiar with him at all.
When he first came to the academy, an outstanding student was attacked and almost died, which really made people suspicious.
In addition, Gu Chen had become close to Ye Qingshuang in the past few days, so she naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Gu Chen understood what Mu Ziyu was thinking and said everything truthfully.
Because he stayed in the library building all the time, Teacher Xu Fang and many students could testify, so he was quickly freed from suspicion.
"You have no problem for the time being, but my investigation into you will not end immediately."
Mu Ziyu couldn't find the reason for Gu Chen, and was a little unwilling.
"Miss Mu, can you let me meet Ye Qingshuang now?"
Gu Chen said.
"What's the good news? Qingshuang is unconscious now. My master said that her soul has been damaged. Although she has taken the best elixirs from the academy, she will not wake up for a few days."
"Besides, men and women are not intimate, so in what capacity do you want to see her?"
She had doubts in her eyes. Last time, Hui Chen and Ye Qingshuang had distanced themselves from each other, but she had never believed it in her heart. This time, Gu Chen came as soon as something happened to Qing Shuang, which made her even more convinced that their relationship was unusual.
"If Miss Mu allows me to meet her, maybe I can find out the murderer."
Gu Chen's words were astonishing.
"Are you serious?"
Mu Ziyu's face immediately straightened up. Even though she despised this man who had two things to do, she still knew which was more important.
Ye Qingshuang was seriously injured, and she felt very distressed when she saw such a bad thing. So far, there is no clue at all about such a bad thing, and the teachers in the college have already been as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
Gu Chen nodded seriously.
"Okay, let me take you to see her."
Mu Ziyu thought for a while and gritted his teeth.
After a while, Gu Chen was taken to a secluded courtyard in the college and saw the seriously injured Ye Qingshuang in a room.
Her injuries were even more horrifying than the rumors said. Her whole body was covered in bandages and there was a faint trace of blood.
Her face was extremely pale, her eyes were closed tightly, and she was mumbling something from time to time.
Gu Chen stepped forward and looked down at her without saying a word.
"Did you see any clues?"
Seeing that Gu Chen didn't even fart, Mu Ziyu asked quickly.
"What is she reading?"
Gu Chen listened intently, but Ye Qingshuang's words were unclear and unclear as he was unconscious.
"Master said that her soul is damaged, which may lead to nightmares. She should be talking in her sleep."
"In the dream, she might have told who the murderer was, but didn't you listen carefully?"
Gu Chen turned around.
"I listened carefully, but the words he spoke were all intermittent. Sometimes he said "Master, Master, Master." It must be that the memories appeared in the dream."
Mu Ziyu sighed, "Qingshuang is also a pitiful person. I heard Master said that her entire sect was wiped out."
"She has no background in the academy and is helpless, but she has always kept herself clean and worked a hundred times harder than others. But even so, there are still rumors that slander her. Now, it's good that there are still people who want her life."
