C504 Frost on Snow
Shan Changkong Vice President was shocked.
Damn it!
Damn bastard!
In fact, Shan Changkong already knew that Wu Ming was inside the City Lord's Mansion Hall, eavesdropping on their conversation.
Reaching Wu Ming's level that was a few meters away, listening in on other people's conversation was actually not difficult at all.
However, Shan Changkong didn't expect Wu Ming to be so … Despicable!
At such a time, when the world was about to be settled, he stood up with a 'righteous spirit'. It was truly too despicable.
Although he was secretly angry at Wu Ming's actions, Shan Changkong still forcefully suppressed his anger, forced a smile and said: "Duke Ming is right. Wu Qicai is the son of Duke Ming, so of course he wouldn't lie to me. I was too brazen just now."
"Ha ha!"
At this time, that clear and bright laughter suddenly sounded out again. A figure slowly walked out from the hall of City Lord's Mansion.
This figure was none other than Duke Ming.
At this moment, Duke Ming was wearing embroidered and beautiful clothes, and he was tall and sturdy, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His aura was extremely tyrannical as he walked into the courtyard.
When Duke Ming appeared in the courtyard, the entire atmosphere of the courtyard immediately became somewhat oppressive. At this time, those disciples who had just participated in Freshman Trial s all focused their gazes on Duke Ming.
Duke Ming had been guarding the Hundred Thousand Mountain, for a few years now. In these few years, Lanqing Empire and the Red Lotus Empire were peaceful and there were almost no wars occurring.
As for the ferocious Demonic Beast and magical beasts in the Hundred Thousand Mountain,, they had not caused any damage to the region around the Lanqing Empire either.
Because of this, even though Duke Ming's surname was Wang, he was still respected by everyone.
Under the crowd's gaze, Duke Ming quickly walked in front of Shan Changkong and said with a smile: "Just Vice President, the conflict between Danwu Academy and children, indeed shouldn't be targeted. Don't you think so? "
Threats!
This was an undisguised threat!
Shan Changkong was well aware that Wu Ming's words just now were a warning to him to give up on pursuing the matter of Shangguan Lan's death.
This place was, after all, City Lord's Mansion, so no one would dare to go against Duke Ming.
At this moment, Shan Changkong's expression was extremely ugly. He had never been humiliated like this before, nor had he ever been humiliated like this.
This Wu Ming is so hateful.
However, at this moment, he could only endure it and force out a smile. He replied: "Duke Ming is right, this debt is recorded down by the Danwu Academy. After the Freshman Trial is done, they will look for the Sword King Pavilion to calculate."
"Thank you, Vice President, for thinking so highly of me!" My Sword King Pavilion, I will patiently wait for my Danwu Academy to settle the score. "
Elder Bai Qing chuckled and said.
Then, Elder Bai Qing retracted his aura. He turned around and looked at Su Ling behind him. He could not help but berate him, "This is all your doing."
"Elder Bai Qing, this is all my fault. If someone else wanted to kill me, how could I not retaliate?"
Su Ling immediately wanted to cry, but no tears came out as he said with a wry smile.
"Humph!"
Elder Bai Qing turned his head and snorted coldly. He was unwilling to part with Su Ling's anger!
But now, he had to purposely get angry and act like he was showing off to the First Prince and that pitiful Shan Changkong and Vice President.
"Su Ling, don't think that once Shangguan Lan dies, you will definitely get first place in the Freshman Trial. "Ninth Prince and Princess Fuling aren't weak either. They can't be underestimated."
The corner of Elder Bai Qing's mouth formed a smile, and said: "Pavilion Master has very high requirements of you, if you can't get first place in the Freshman Trial this time, when we return to Sword King Pavilion, you can wait for Pavilion Master to take care of you!"
Shan Changkong and Vice President, who were standing on the side, almost vomited blood.
Bai Qing, the heck!
Shangguan Lan's death caused Shan Changkong and Vice President to feel aggrieved.
But now, Elder Bai Qing was telling him that Shangguan Lan had died. This was undoubtedly rubbing salt into the wound at the bottom of Shan Changkong's heart, causing him to suffer even more.
At this moment, Shan Changkong and Vice President truly wanted to cry, but no tears came out.
"Duke Ming, I still have things to do, so I'll head back first."
Shan Changkong had an extremely ugly expression on his face. It was as if the words were stuck in his throat. He stared at Wu Ming for a long time as he spoke.
"Hehe, Dan Vice President, don't you want to leave now? Don't you want to see the outcome of the Freshman Trial? You must know that this time, the first prize of the Freshman Trial is a precious Sky-Rank Treasure Weapon. Although Shangguan Lan was killed, this does not mean that the other disciples of Danwu Academy did not get the chance to obtain first place. "
Duke Ming immediately chuckled. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Shan Changkong, who had a serious expression, and said.
The snow was getting heavier!
This was completely adding frost to the snow, adding insult to injury.
Originally, Shan Changkong felt quite uncomfortable inside.
After all, the person who died was Shangguan Lan, the second son of Shangguan Family, and also the younger brother of Shangguan Mie.
After the Freshman Trial finished, Shan Changkong would return to Danwu Academy. It was inevitable for him to blame himself for resigning, and he might even suffer from fierce retaliation from Shangguan Family.
But now, Duke Ming shut his mouth, saying that Shangguan Lan had been killed.
This made Shan Changkong extremely upset, but he dared not to say anything.
Thinking up to here, Shan Changkong felt as if he had something stuck in his throat, and his expression turned even more unsightly. He stared at Duke Ming and laughed bitterly: "Then I will wait until the Freshman Trial's results are announced before I leave!"
No one knew how upset Shan Changkong was at the moment. His whole face was pale and he didn't even want to talk anymore.
Of course, compared to Shan Changkong's current discomfort, the noble First Prince also suffered greatly from the bottom of his heart.
Eunuch Jin was among those who died!
One must know that the First Prince's closest eunuch was Eunuch Jin, and he even regarded Eunuch Jin as his trusted aide.
But now, Eunuch Jin had actually been killed by Su Ling. In order to get rid of the main culprit, the First Prince had even given Eunuch Jin the title of betrayer.
Eunuch Jin would probably die with regrets.
The First Prince's body was extremely stiff, and his expression was extremely ugly. He was stunned on the spot, his biggest hope right now was to wait until Ninth Prince and Princess Fuling returned, then he would be able to obtain good results among the Freshman Trial s. He would then ruthlessly slap Su Ling's face, and help him win back some face.
At this moment, with the passage of time, a smear of red in the evening dyed this half of the sky.
This part of the sky looked like a light blue silk. Now that it was dyed red, it looked very pretty.
The fiery red sun gradually descended towards the western horizon. The fiery color of the sky blotted out the sky, and the entire City Lord's Mansion became extremely beautiful.1
Su Ling was bathing in the afterglow of the setting sun with a few faint smiles on his face. Wang Huan, who was beside Su Ling, also had a relaxed expression on his face.
As for Wu Qicai, he stood beside Wu Ming.
At this moment, the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion seemed to be extremely quiet.
But at this moment, a shout broke the silence.
"Brother, sister Poria Cocos, and I are back."
Ninth Prince, Lee Han, and Princess Fuling who wore a fiery red dress walked in from outside the City Lord's Mansion.
Just as he entered the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, Ninth Prince's gaze fell upon Su Ling's body. He was instantly incomparably shocked, and felt extremely horrified in his heart as he said in astonishment: "Big Brother Su, aren't you dead?"
