As the eldest elder of the Zhang family, Zhang Mingshui's thoughts change very quickly.
In the Zhang family, he is almost the most trusted person by the patriarch Zhang Bao. Otherwise, Zhang Bao would not have let him come to Ziye City to investigate Zhang Feng's disappearance.
"I hope the person who killed Zhang Feng is not this Xia Yan." Zhang Mingshui murmured in a low voice in the room.
After thinking about it for a long time, he realized from the bottom of his heart that he did not want Xia Yan to be the one who killed Zhang Feng.
You know, Xia Yan is the disciple of Liu Yun, the dean of Ziye College. If Zhang Bao kills Xia Yan at all costs because of revenge, how can Liu Yun just let it go? This is not just because of being a disciple, but also because of his face.
question.
Think about Liu Yun, the dean of a first-class college, and his only disciple was killed in the end. If Liu Yun didn't do something, wouldn't he be laughed at?
Therefore, if Xia Yan dies, Liu Yun will be furious. He may even take direct revenge on the Zhang family. Liu Yun may not be able to destroy the Zhang family on his own, but the relationship behind Liu Yun...
Zhang Mingshui also knew very well that the involvement behind these big figures was very complicated, and they all had various networks of relationships in the Holy Land. How many powerful people have come out of Ziye Academy in these years? Zhang Mingshui didn't know at all. However, from Ziye Academy,
Among the strong people coming out of Ye Academy, there are definitely many strong people from the Ling Sect.
In the entire Dragon Continent, there are only three super colleges and eight first-class colleges.
On this road, more than half of the cultivators who can become spiritual masters and above are from these eleven colleges. The other half are from the less famous small colleges below or have finally cultivated through their own efforts.
Entering the realm of a spiritual master.
"call!"
Zhang Mingshui couldn't help but take a breath.
"Even the clan leader himself came from Ziye College. Speaking of which, Liu Yun was once his dean." Zhang Mingshui thought to himself.
It is impossible for those powerful people who came out of Purple Leaf Academy to completely lose contact with Purple Leaf Academy. Even if some people have no feelings for Purple Leaf Academy, there are definitely many people here who respect Liu Yun very much.
As long as Liu Yun makes a call, then these people are likely to come forward for Purple Leaf Academy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Mingshui's body trembled violently.
"Zhang Feng's mother is a young lady of the Xun family. But will the Xun family offend Liu Yun because of Zhang Feng?" Zhang Mingshui asked himself in his heart.
"Not necessarily!" Zhang Mingshui did not hesitate for a long time. After he asked himself, he immediately gave the answer.
Yes, the Xun family may not stand up for Zhang Feng. If Liu Yun makes up his mind to cause trouble for the Zhang family, then the Xun family will most likely only protect one Xun Yulian and abandon the entire Zhang family.
At that time, the Zhang family was called Tian Tianying!
"No, I have to be cautious about this matter. Let's wait until we have some clues in a few days before spreading the news to Jinyang City." Zhang Mingshui's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice.
"asshole."
In front of the Ziye Academy, several strong cultivators in black clothes and armed with weapons were gathered not far away, staring at the academy gate with sharp eyes.
Just now, they tried to enter the academy, but were stopped by the guards of Purple Leaf Academy.
If they don't have student ID cards, they are not students of Ziye Academy. Of course, the guards will not let them in.
There was no other way, these people could only quietly retreat to a distance and wait for the opportunity.
These people, following Zhang Mingshui's order, tried to enter Ziye College to investigate the students who had a good relationship with Xia Yan. But now they can't even enter the college, let alone investigate.
The guard captain yelled and cursed fiercely.
When he came out, he promised to find out, but now there is no progress at all.
"team leader!"
Suddenly, a guard with thick eyebrows and big eyes next to the captain called out.
"Huh?" The captain turned around and looked at the thick-browed guard.
"We can't enter the academy. It's better to go back early and inform the elders so that they can make up their minds." The guard frowned and said tentatively.
"Go back?" The guard captain's mouth trembled, his eyes flashed, and he immediately said decisively, "No!"
"The elder asked us to check on Xia Yan's friends. If we go back like this, he will definitely be angry." The guard captain looked very sure.
"That……"
The guard opened his mouth again, "Captain, I just watched for a while and found that some students were coming out. These students are all from Purple Leaf College. They must have seen that Xia Yan, and they should know something about Xia Yan. How about that?
, let’s follow the student who came out of the academy, and then look for an opportunity to ask.”
"Captain, let's pretend to be Xia Yan's family. Those students will definitely tell us what they know." Seeing the captain's eyes getting brighter, the guard couldn't help but continue proudly.
"Okay!" The captain clapped his hands.
"If we just do this, we will definitely find out something. As long as we can give an explanation to the elders, that will be fine!" The guard captain was at a loss just now. Now that he had a way to continue the investigation, he couldn't help but excitedly patted the bushy-browed guard on the shoulder.
"Third son, you have a pretty good brain!" the guard captain said with a smile.
"Thank you very much for the compliment, Captain." The guard also held his fists and said with a smile.
Two hours later!
Four guards from the Zhang family gathered in a corner again. They had just followed three students from Purple Leaf Academy and got a lot of information about Xia Yan.
Knowing that Xia Yan was very powerful, they had already gone to Ziyue City to participate in this first-class college exchange meeting. They also found out that Xia Yan did have a lot of grudges with Zhang Feng. They even had conflicts in the college.
It attracted many people to watch.
When they were in the academy, the relationship between Xia Yan and Zhang Feng was very bad. Many students knew that this was no secret.
The most important news is that Xia Yan has several good friends in the college. The first is a person named Liu Kai, the second is named Zhou Landand, and the other is Xia Yan's sister named Xia Zixin, but
I don't know why he died later.
When asking these questions, the guards were very polite and pretended to be Xia Yan's family members. The students who came out of the academy saw that the guards were very respectful, so they had no doubts and told them what they knew.
So they all said it.
Moreover, Xia Yan is extremely famous in the academy, and most ordinary students admire Xia Yan.
Because Xia Yan was able to enter the special academy just after entering the academy, many people admired Xia Yan.
These guards do not dare to attack these students of Purple Leaf Academy. Even the guard captain of the Zhang family is only at the peak of acquired strength. The students who came out of Purple Leaf Academy, even if they are relatively weak, almost all have reached the peak level.
Acquired peak strength. Moreover, after training in the academy, these students' fighting skills are much better than before.
It can be said that except for those mercenaries who often go on missions, it is difficult for ordinary acquired peak experts to be opponents of these students. Family guards like these are worse in comparison.
"Let's go back and report to the elders to see what to do next." The guard captain waved his hand, and the four of them walked quickly in the direction they came from.
Zhang Mingshu narrowed his eyes again after listening to what several people said.
"Purple Leaf Academy, ordinary people cannot enter. However, now that I know the names of Liu Kai and Zhou Lande, I can ask the guards of the academy to inform them and then trick them out. In this way..."
Zhang Mingshui thought for a moment and then came up with an idea.
"Let's go to Ziye College." Zhang Mingshui said.
This time, they came to Ziye College and said they were looking for Liu Kai and Zhou Lande, students from the college. The college guards had the responsibility to inform these two people.
Liu Kai and Zhou Lande were both in the college. They heard that someone was looking for them at the gate of the college, so they both came to the college gate with some confusion.
However, the people they saw in front of the door were all unknown to them.
"Who are you? Why are you looking for us?" Liu Kai looked at Zhang, Zhang Mingshui and others and asked.
Zhang Mingshui watched the two people walking in, and secretly thought that these two people should be Zhou Lande and Liu Kai. At this time, when Liu Kai spoke, he was already sure.
At that moment, Zhang Mingshui sighed deeply and said, "Are you students Zhou Landand and Liu Kai?"
"yes!"
Liu Kai and Zhou Lande nodded.
"Then..." Zhang Mingshui turned his eyes, his face solemn, "Do you know Xia Zixin and Xia Yan?"
Zhang Mingshui knew that Xia Yan's sister Xia Zixin was dead. Since these two people knew Xia Yan, they should also know Xia Zixin and must know that Xia Zixin was dead. He said this just because he wanted to deceive the two of them and then see
Depend on which method to take.
"Um?"
Liu Kai and Zhou Lande looked at each other.
These people asked Brother Xia Yan and Xia Zixin if they were from the Xia family?
Thinking that he might be a member of the Xia family, Liu Kai was much more polite. Although he had been to the Xia family, there were so many Xia family members, so of course it was impossible for him to know them all. It was normal that he had never met the person in front of him.
"You mean Brother Xia Yan?" Liu Kai's voice changed, but his attitude was very respectful, "Then you are?"
"We are members of the Xia family, because of Xia Zixin's matter..."
Just now, the guard captain also told Zhang Mingshui about Xia Zixin's death.
"So, I would like to ask you two to tell us what happened at that time. I don't know, is it convenient for you two? If possible, please also ask you to go to a nearby restaurant with us." Zhang Mingshui said sincerely.
"Of course you can, but..." Liu Kai frowned, "I don't know the specific situation, and Brother Xia Yan didn't tell me too much."
At that time, Xia Yan was holding Xia Zixin who was seriously injured, and Liu Kai saw it in person. At that time, Xia Yan said that Xia Zixin could still be saved, but Xia Zixin died three days later. Therefore, Liu Kai was in a state of confusion for a few days, and he only recovered recently.
Zhou Lande, on the other hand, was even more unaware of this matter. However, since the Xia family came here and wanted them to talk about it, he certainly would not refuse.
