A chilling scene could be reflected in the pupils of Confucius, Lu Xun, and everyone present.
Above the vast sea, fighter jets flew by, whistling and buzzing as they passed by, hovering several hundred meters above the Nanyue Academy.
Then!
Wow!
As if aimed with precision instruments, tiny bombs, each the size of a head, were dropped, exploding throughout the island.
The training room, armory, medicine room, side rooms, and other areas were all set ablaze by bombs, creating a dazzling yet cruel spectacle of death in just half a minute.
The screams of terror and panic echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
"ah!!!"
"What happened? What is that?! Master, Master, help me!"
"What is that thing in the sky? It's coming! Run! It's going to fire something like a grenade, but much more powerful. Could it be Zhou Cheng coming to kill us?"
"What is this, heavens..."
This happened so fast that the teacher's mind went blank on the spot, and he couldn't recover from the sound of the bombing for a long time.
He turned his head with a jolt and saw a scene of utter devastation. He saw the guards around Cheng Xianyi covered in blood from the explosion, and a dark bomb falling from the sky.
Then it crashed down at his feet.
In the split second his heart clenched and trembled, someone rushed over, pushed him down, and pinned him to the ground.
"Boom!!" Sound.
The Master heard a ringing in his ears as his white robe was blown apart, revealing a withered body covered in lines. He pushed away the blurry body covering him and discovered that it was the imposter Zhou Qianyan, who was spitting blood.
"Master, quick, run... It's Zhou Cheng, it must be Zhou Cheng attacking..."
"Nanyue Academy is the pinnacle of scholarship."
"It's a holy land, meant to protect the peace of the Central Plains, to do great things, to... Master, your face, your face... *splat*!" The imposter Zhou Qianyan collapsed to the ground, barely alive.
She stared wide-eyed at the teacher's terrifying face.
The lines etched on his face were so clear and terrifying.
The master touched his face, his eyes hardening. He kicked aside the bloodied student who had blocked his way, looking at the completely destroyed Nanyue Academy, witnessing centuries of hard work destroyed in a single day.
He unleashed a furious, impotent rage: "Ah!!! It's ruined, it's ruined! I was so close, so close to finding the reason, so close to succeeding! How could this happen? It's you!"
"Yes, it's me." Cheng Xianyi withdrew her gaze from the sky, a faint smile curving her lips. "Are you still wondering why you were only three years away from success?"
The Master was stunned.
Something taut in my mind snapped with a bang.
He glared fiercely at Cheng Xianyi, watching as she raised her hand and removed her veil. In that instant, a stunningly beautiful, familiar face that had haunted him appeared in his pupils.
The Master's hands trembled as he denied it: "This is impossible, this is impossible!!"
"How did you end up here...? What do you know? How much do you know about what happened back then?"
Back then, the Crown Princess of the Ning Dynasty, after that person died, devoted all her efforts to digging out all the traitors, tearing them to pieces, and dismembering them.
If he hadn't hidden himself so quickly, never revealing his true identity, and hadn't concealed himself on the island so early, he probably would have been caught by the Crown Princess long ago, even though she was already dead.
How could this be... how could I be here?
And it seems...
