917: Demon Palace drugged the giant rhino, the giant rhino recalled
"Wen Xiucheng, what nonsense are you talking about?" Moyun's brows furrowed, and his eyes flickered after hearing this.
He didn't expect that Wen Xiucheng would directly speak his inner thoughts!
That's right, when he saw Du Xingchen rush into the team of exotic beast breeders, the reason Moyun asked him to intercept the two Five-Star Soul Card Masters was indeed to make Du Xingchen suffer a bit.
He had always remembered the grudge from when Du Xingchen was unwilling to help him fuse Soul Cards in the Tianmu Great Forest!
Asking Du Xingchen to intercept two Five-Star Soul Card Masters, the consequences were naturally expected.
Any normal person would know that no matter how tough a Tank-type Soul Card Master is, they couldn't stop two Five-Star Soul Card Masters.
Originally, Moyun thought that when Du Xingchen was seriously injured later, and only he had healing medicine, he would completely bind Du Xingchen as his loyal subordinate by helping him heal, using the favor of healing.
As for Du Xingchen being injured due to his command, in Moyun's opinion, this was a topic that could be easily dismissed.
After all, Du Xingchen himself was just an outsider in the team; it was completely normal for him to get injured.
No one would care at all.
However, something completely unexpected was happening at this moment!
Wen Xiucheng singled out this matter, refusing to let it go, while also directly stating that he deliberately harmed Du Xingchen!
This matter was clearly just me, Moyun, unilaterally targeting Du Xingchen. Wen Xiucheng, what do you mean by suddenly jumping out?
Didn't you also dislike Du Xingchen?!
In fact, Captain Wen Xiucheng wasn't sticking up for Du Xingchen at all; he was thinking from his own perspective.
In his mind, Moyun deliberately harmed Du Xingchen, but the ultimate goal was still to frame him, the person with the Dragon God Bloodline, through Du Xingchen!
This guy is gradually disintegrating the team he manages, breaking up his team, making him lose the qualification to participate in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination, thereby blocking his Opportunity to appear before the Divine Hall as a Genius and make the Demon Hall too wary to act!
At this moment, Wen Xiucheng's internal thought was that if Moyun dared to act against Du Xingchen today, he would dare to act against Qing Youyu tomorrow, and he would act against him the day after tomorrow!
Originally, it was just Moyun's unilateral revenge against Du Xingchen, but with the previous buildup and Du Xingchen's performance and cooperation in getting injured, the matter was magnified several times and was considered by Wen Xiucheng to be targeting him!
It was precisely because of this that Wen Xiucheng shouted so fiercely.
"Get out of my team!" Wen Xiucheng didn't say much, but shouted at Moyun with a serious and cold tone.
"Are you crazy?!" Moyun didn't expect this guy would want to kick him out just because he targeted Du Xingchen!
"Enough!" The Giant Rhino roared again.
His thick brows scanned between Wen Xiucheng and Moyun.
He didn't understand why these two were arguing like this, even to the point of wanting to kick someone out of the team.
This team was the only team from Yunyong Academy participating in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination.
And it was the only hope.
The Giant Rhino certainly wouldn't watch the team suddenly announce its disbandment.
Therefore, he directly spoke up, preventing the subsequent development of the situation.
"You two calm down for a while." The Giant Rhino said, patting Wen Xiucheng's shoulder: "Come with me for a moment. We haven't talked for a few days, and your temper is even more explosive than mine?"
As he finished speaking, the Giant Rhino walked towards the carriage at the very front of the convoy.
Wen Xiucheng took a deep look at Moyun and followed the Giant Rhino into the carriage.
The rain curtain still hadn't stopped.
After a moment of silence, Wang Lie stepped forward on behalf of the convoy: "Hahaha, everyone, let's get back in the carriages. The weather is getting dark and cold. It's warmer in the carriages."
"We still have to travel tonight. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it will take quite a while to reach the Outer Domain."
Amidst the careful urging, Wang Lie couldn't help but look at the carriage where the Giant Rhino was located.
Only now did he realize how terrifying a powerhouse was among the people he was leading on this trip!
"Xiao Lie." Suddenly, a hoarse voice appeared in Wang Lie's ear.
Hearing the familiar words, the Middle-aged man immediately turned his head to look at the White-Haired Old Man among the convoy's crowd.
"Master, what's wrong?" Wang Lie respectfully stepped forward.
After he arrived, the three-eyed Old Man sitting on the exotic beast's back waved his hand and created a soundproof barrier: "Xiao Lie, do we have better food in our convoy?"
"Food? Master, are you not finding the recent food to your liking? I'll get you something better."
"Hmm, get something good, but it's not for me." The Old Man said, indicating the carriage at the front of the convoy: "It's for that Grand Sage Master Senior."
After speaking, the White-Haired Old Man, whose face was covered in age spots, took out a small porcelain bottle from his body: "Inside here are some tonics I've collected. Remember to add them to that Senior's food."
"For such a great figure, even I, as your Master, need to cling to him. We must not miss this Opportunity."
"Tonics?" Hearing the Old Man's instructions, Wang Lie looked at the porcelain bottle in the other party's hand a couple more times.
After reaching out and taking it, he sniffed it at the Old Man's signal.
A strong medicinal fragrance made Wang Lie feel lightheaded and somewhat intoxicated.
"This is a great tonic! Master, aren't we keeping it for ourselves?" Quickly sealing the lid tightly, Wang Lie said with some reluctance.
"Heh heh, no wonder you're still at this small Realm at your age."
"If we don't give up something, how can we get close to that Grand Sage Master?"
"If we can't establish a connection with that Grand Sage Master, how can we advance further?"
"The opportunities in this world are not just these heavenly materials and earthly treasures; a network of connections is another manifestation of Opportunity."
After the Old Man finished speaking, Wang Lie nodded in thought: "Master is right, Tu'er was short-sighted."
"Alright, go do it." The White-Haired Old Man waved his hand: "Remember, after adding the tonic to the food, we shouldn't proactively mention the tonic."
"We need that powerhouse to discover our good intentions himself."
"Yes, Master!"
Wang Lie left with the 'tonic', and a sinister look appeared in the eyes of the Old Man sitting on the exotic beast's back.
To make the plan go more smoothly, he would set a trap for the Giant Rhino in advance, so that the plan could be executed better later.
...
It was already The Black Night.
Under the rainy night.
The convoy set off again.
The pattering rain fully displayed the silence of the forest.
Before long, the convoy arrived at the place where the Old Man in Yellow Robe had died earlier.
In the area where he died, several items were scattered.
A warm and jade-like exotic beast bone plate, a strangely shaped flute, and a bottle of poison that the Old Man in Yellow Robe had refined himself.
Of course, this Saint Master actually had many other things on him.
However, most of the others had already turned into dust and debris, scattered in some inconspicuous places.
The Giant Rhino's previous attack was simply too terrifying, and many items were destroyed along with him.
After the three items were collected, they fell into the Giant Rhino's hands.
Originally, the Giant Rhino didn't want these things.
In his opinion, it was best to give these things he didn't care about to the students of the academy, letting them digest them one by one and turn them into their respective combat power.
But after witnessing the conflict between Wen Xiucheng and Moyun.
The Giant Rhino thought it was better not to give these things to this group of students for the time being.
Otherwise, the distribution of the items might become the fuse for the complete deterioration of their relationship.
"Tell me, why do you have this attitude towards Moyun? This is not like your usual self."
The Giant Rhino sat in the carriage and asked Wen Xiucheng.
He had let the other party calm down for a while before starting to ask.
"Moyun wants to harm me!" Wen Xiucheng clenched his fists, his voice suppressed as he spoke through gritted teeth.
"He wants to harm you?" The Giant Rhino couldn't understand: "Didn't you two get along quite well before? You even told the other team members that if you couldn't command during team combat for some reason, everyone could listen to Moyun's command."
"Haven't you always been partners who could entrust your backs to each other?"
The Giant Rhino's thought at this moment was, of course, to try his best to mediate the relationship between the two.
Even if one party had made a mistake, he would try to help them reconcile within his capabilities.
After all, the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination was approaching, and conflicts within the team at this time could be fatal!
"Teacher, do you know my true identity?" Wen Xiucheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
When these words came out, the Giant Rhino looked puzzled: "Why do I need to know your identity? It's enough that you are my Student."
"Actually, ever since I was little, I have always been pursued by the Demon Hall. It was only in the past few years that I escaped to the Mountain Forest Kingdom and came to our academy that I finally settled down." Wen Xiucheng exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Regarding my identity, I have always been hiding it, but Moyun actually investigated my identity and origin in secret!"
"This guy infiltrated our team with ulterior motives!"
"I even suspect that he is a spy planted by the Demon Hall!"
"Are you thinking too much?" The Giant Rhino frowned and denied.
"I have the Dragon God Bloodline, and I am the Prince of the Eternal Night Kingdom. Moyun was secretly investigating this point." Wen Xiucheng added this brief sentence at the end.
This was his biggest secret.
However, since the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination was approaching, there was nothing to hide from Teacher Giant Rhino now.
Because of this sentence, the Giant Rhino suddenly paused.
He fell into a moment of held breath and surprise.
The first thing the Giant Rhino thought of was not about Moyun.
His mind at this moment suddenly leaped back to a task that Eboer, who was now the Principal, had given him many years ago.
"The Great Demon Envoy of the Demon Hall is now urgently in need of a pure divine lineage. You are to deliver this message to the Demon Hall."
With Eboer's command, the Giant Rhino, who was still in the Saint Master stage at the time and didn't know the meaning of this task, took the letter written by Eboer himself and went to the Demon Hall.
And then...
The Eternal Night Kingdom was annihilated by the Demon Hall!
