143: Public discussion

Demonic energy pierced the sky, and domains unfolded.

"Who stole the top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure!"

After Lu Yuan and Li Jinxue left, multiple Domain Realm Demon Kings rushed to the scene.

They smelled the aura of the top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure, but it was too late.

The moon tonight was big and full.

When Lu Yuan accurately guessed that Li Hesong's wife, son, and even grandson had all died unnatural deaths.

Li Jinxue was stunned!

"How do you know?" Li Jinxue asked, confused.

Although she and Lu Yuan were both from Tianhua City, they didn't know each other at all before entering Pengcheng University!

"Just a guess," Lu Yuan rubbed his brow.

A mess!

Like a ball of tangled thread with no discernible starting point!

First, the Principal has a deep-seated hatred for Lu Jingyuan, the God Emperor Realm Expert who awakened the Space and Time Attributes.

Including the Alliance Leaders, who also want Lu Jingyuan dead!

At the Hengsheng Headquarters, the heavily injured Principal, whose clothes were tattered, questioned Yi Jinsong, the former Chairman of Prosperous.

He was like a raging tiger demanding to know Lu Jingyuan's whereabouts.

This proves that Yi Jinsong is Lu Jingyuan's subordinate, and the mastermind behind colluding with the Demon and Monster Races and conspiring with the Great Shun Dynasty is Lu Jingyuan.

Now Li Jinxue is claiming that the Principal killed her grandfather, Li Hesong!

Furthermore, she suspects that Li Hesong's entire family was also killed by the Principal!

"What is the basis for your guess?" Li Jinxue vaguely felt that Lu Yuan knew something.

"The basis is that the Principal told Yi Jinsong, the former Chairman of Prosperous, 'Don't even dream that someone will help us resurrect our wives and children.'"

Li Jinxue didn't understand Lu Yuan's words.

How was Yi Jinsong involved again? The case of Prosperous had long been closed, and the organization no longer existed.

"In short, I personally witnessed Lao Qiyuan kill my grandfather; my eyes cannot deceive me!" Li Jinxue asserted.

*Pfft*—

A Divine Power Realm Raging Flame Rhino passed by and was instantly killed by Feng Shi.

At this point, they were less than a kilometer from the Supply Point, and Lu Yuan and Li Jinxue tacitly chose to walk.

The topic they were discussing was too explosive, involving Lao Qiyuan, who was once the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Sword Alliance and hailed as the God of War.

If their conversation were overheard and spread, it would inevitably cause an uproar in Huaxia!

Feng Shi obediently followed behind Lu Yuan, using its sharp beak to tear open the Raging Flame Rhino, take out its heart, and swallow it.

The heart was its favorite food.

Looking at Li Jinxue, who was voluntarily sharing her secret with him, Lu Yuan organized his thoughts.

"Two questions. First, why did you apply to Pengcheng University? The Principal is your enemy."

"Second, why tell me? You don't think I'll help you get revenge, do you?"

Li Jinxue was very beautiful, with a pure temperament and a face that gave off a 'first love' feeling.

This physique and appearance were extremely lethal to men of any age group.

Pengcheng University had a student forum, where a post called the Campus Belle Ranking List was permanently pinned.

Li Jinxue ranked second historically and topped the Freshman rankings.

This post had existed for decades, held significant weight, and indirectly confirmed Li Jinxue's beauty.

"I don't need you to help me get revenge; I just hope that after I die, someone will remember Lao Qiyuan's hypocritical face," Li Jinxue said seriously.

Although The Authorities defined her grandfather's death as a murder, they claimed the killer was someone else.

But Li Jinxue clearly saw Lao Qiyuan kill her grandfather with her own eyes!

"That's fine," Lu Yuan shrugged.

Although Li Jinxue helped him obtain the grand void thunder wood, he didn't let her suffer a loss either.

Seven Transcendent Realm demon crystals and Demonic Cores, plus the Practitioners' storage rings—the compensation given to Li Jinxue was already very generous.

Yuan Ruifeng was even from the top-tier Yuan Family; perhaps his storage ring contained a high-grade spirit tool.

"You go ahead," Lu Yuan looked toward the full moon.

Watching Li Jinxue enter the Supply Point, Lu Yuan injected spiritual power into Silence.

"Are you there?"

"What's up, Brother Yuan."

Han Junchen's voice came through, followed by a reprimand from nearby.

"A Gold Attribute Practitioner using a sword this badly—aren't you ashamed? Why did I even take you as a disciple!"

"Lu Yuan has already cultivated to Law Realm Six-Star, and you're still in the Divine Power Realm. If you can't beat him in cultivation level, you should at least win against him in close combat!"

It wasn't just Han Junchen; Lu Yuan also heard the Principal's voice.

"Does the Principal have a small sword-shaped birthmark on his left arm?" Lu Yuan asked directly.

Han Junchen was Lao Qiyuan's personal disciple.

Judging by the noise, Lao Qiyuan seemed to be teaching Han Junchen a Sword Technique, speaking with a tone of disappointment.

"I don't know!" Han Junchen replied.

He wasn't crazy; why would he observe Lao Qiyuan's body when he had nothing better to do?

"Teacher, why don't you take off your clothes?"

To help Lu Yuan resolve his confusion, Han Junchen spoke bluntly.

Lao Qiyuan: "???

Lu Yuan: "..."

*Crackling sounds*—

"Ouch, damn it, stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"

"Brother Yuan, talk later! Teacher refuses to take off his clothes, I need to think of another way!"

"Has he been pretending to be stupid for so long that his brain is malfunctioning?" Lu Yuan was speechless.

He needed to know if Li Jinxue was lying, and the best proof was whether the Principal had a small sword birthmark on his left arm.

Relying on Han Junchen was out of the question; he would have to figure out a solution himself later.

Just as he walked into the Supply Point, Lu Yuan saw Li Jinxue distributing demon crystals to her teammates.

"Brother Yuan!" Xu Ruicheng waved.

"Mm."

Lu Yuan sat down on a stool and ordered a few more dishes.

"Captain, where did you get so many Transcendent Realm demon crystals and Demonic Cores!" Xu Ruicheng exclaimed excitedly.

Their team had an excellent relationship, which was related to Li Jinxue being the Captain.

Every time they hunted fierce beasts in the No Mans Land, Li Jinxue would perfectly allocate resources, ensuring no team member felt dissatisfied.

"I picked them up," Li Jinxue glanced at Lu Yuan and said.

"Where did you pick them up? I want to pick some up too."

"You actually believe that?"

Another team member was speechless.

The Supply Point was bustling with activity, and everyone was discussing the top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure.

These Practitioners didn't know it was the grand void thunder wood; they only knew that a top-grade heaven and earth spirit treasure was nearby.

As they chatted, someone changed the subject.

"Have you heard? The Great Shun Dynasty is the reason Huaxia's probability of awakening a profession has increased!"

"Seriously? Where did you hear that?"

By now, the Great Shun Dynasty was no longer a secret, and when this topic came up, Xu Ruicheng joined the discussion.

"Brother Yuan, you've been named the Martial Champion by the Emperor of the Great Shun Dynasty, and the Emperor is willing to marry his daughter to you!"

Xu Ruicheng said excitedly.

Lu Yuan: "???

He had been in the No Mans Land for over a week—had that much happened?

"Hehe, not just one princess, they want you to marry two princesses!" Xu Ruicheng repeated, then mimicked an ancient TV drama by shouting, "Greetings, Imperial Son-in-Law!"

"You're very humorous."

Lu Yuan looked at Xu Ruicheng.

"I'm alright. I'm the team's famous happy pill."

"If I become the Imperial Son-in-Law, how about you become an Eunuch?"

Xu Ruicheng, who was giggling a second ago, had his smile freeze the next.

Meanwhile, the smiles transferred to the faces of Li Jinxue and the other team members.

From Li Jinxue, Lu Yuan learned that in just seven days, a public opinion storm had swept across Huaxia!

Simply put, the narrative claimed that the Emperor of the Great Shun Dynasty's slumber was for the country and the people, as he had increased the probability of Practitioners awakening on this land by several times.

This public opinion spread like a plague, triggering a national discussion!
