"Is this the memory crystal he left behind?"
Janar walked to the mother star dragon and looked up at the pale blue crystals. They were vertically downward, like stalactites growing on the top of a cave.
"Maybe it's for you."
Janar's calmness time and time again made the mother star dragon speak frankly, and it was indeed the case. But she didn't think that a busy man like Gong Qingge would remember her at the end of his life.
The further away from her memory, the clearer Janaer saw it. That handsome man would not refuse any girl's invitation. Perhaps this was the reason why she could forget him and not think about him.
That memory was too long ago and has become blurred. Janaer almost forgot his face, but she just thought he was handsome, like a label attached to him that she could never tear off. Just like her own waiting at the end of the mountain road, it was also like a label, so that some seniors now are not used to seeing no one on the mountain road.
Once a label is put on, it is extremely difficult to get rid of it!
Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang looked at Jana'er. If they wanted to see the contents of the memory crystal, they had to get her consent. Jana'er chuckled a few times, making her look like Gong Qingge's wife. She didn't even know her position in his heart. This kind of thing couldn't be guessed, and she never did it.
"Just watch it. That's what we're here for today. And we should verify the truth of the rumors in the academy at that time."
"What rumors?"
Jana raised her hand and tried to activate it with her energy. The energy turned into mist and moved down from her palm, covering her face, but her voice could still be heard clearly.
"After he died, some teachers said that he was forced to do so in order to protect his companions, and thus became infected with the aura of the devil. However, most people said that he became an evil person in pursuit of power. Given his personality, the latter statement was more true, so the former was quickly suppressed. No one wanted to restore his heroic image because he killed two students and a teacher, and he was one of the thirteen people closest to the top of the mountain."
Xia Xiao raised his eyebrows. The thirteen people closest to the top of the mountain were at least at the Supreme Realm. This Gong Qingge, since he was able to kill him, was really terrifying. Could it be because of the five elements restraining each other, or because he was still on the ice field?
"You have all seen the teacher who died. It was the pot of garlic flowers."
In the white porcelain pot, there was a green seedling growing on the garlic. Xia Xiao had some impression of it. He had always thought that it was a very extraordinary spiritual medicine, but he didn't expect that it was a senior.
"That senior is Feng Xin Ba Xiang, a rare and wonderful flower in the world. He chased Gong Qingge from Gou Longbang Clan, but he didn't expect the latter, who was good at controlling ice, to escape into the ice field and use the power of magic and ice that is not good for wood to destroy him. If that senior hadn't been so advanced in Taoism, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to turn into a seed and return to the academy."
"What exactly is the magic path?"
Xia Xiao only had a rough idea of it, but it was not very deep. But regarding the knowledge in this area, the mother star dragon opened his mouth and spoke freely.
"Practitioners use the energy of heaven and earth to replenish themselves, and they emphasize hard work and comprehension. The devil uses the energy in the bodies of living beings to improve their strength, which means harming others to benefit oneself. Although the Great Wilderness is in chaos, the status of humans and wild beasts is extremely unequal, but it is not to the point where innocent people are killed without anyone caring. Especially for humans who put human rights above all else, they are very resistant to the devil."
"Senior Gong Qingge killed two of his fellow students to gain the strength to defeat that senior?"
Knowing that Xia Xiao had concerns, Ganar added.
"Just call him by his name!"
Xia Xiao nodded quickly, thinking that I also want to call her by her name, which is more convenient and not so difficult to pronounce, but it is inevitably awkward. Although the mother star dragon did not say it, there is respect for her in his eyes. Xia Xiao planned not to call her by her name or mention it, and just avoided it cleverly.
"It may be that the water element does not restrain the wood element. Even the ice in it cannot seriously injure the senior, even with the help of the environment."
"The devil is so powerful, fortunately it didn't grow stronger, otherwise this world would be in ruins."
"It's hard to say. We are in the light, and all we see is light. The creatures in the dark are always a mystery."
"Don't always try to boost others' morale. We have the vice-president, Shu Shuang's master the Pope, the hairy-chested president of the Adventurer's Guild, the old monk from Tanghua Temple, and the leader of Qingtian Sect. We are no worse than them."
"That's right. They are all above the Tao. If there is a strong person like them in the dark, they will definitely be able to sense it."
Facing Ganar's rebuttal, the mother star dragon agreed. Just as he finished speaking, a crisp cracking sound came from above his head. When the three looked up, the crystals growing in the cave had turned into gravel, floating in the air, and finally turned into a narwhal, swimming in the cave with an extremely sad cry.
The cave was only five meters high, not very big, but the narwhal swimming in it seemed to be in a vast ocean. It stirred the air in the cave, attracting Xia Xiao's attention.
This is a lone narwhal, with an attitude that seems to be isolated from the world. When its fins flutter, it stirs up a gust of wind of memories, making Janaer feel as if she saw a porcelain jar buried underground, which contained a note from long ago, recording many old events. She hadn't opened it for a long time, but with just one glance, she recalled all the things she thought she had forgotten, and those names she thought she would never use again.
"Are you Jun Hai?"
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"Is it really you?"
The mother star dragon was even more excited than Ganar and seemed a little abnormal.
"It's me, you're finally here."
"What happened? You don't look possessed at all."
"That old bastard is telling lies!"
Jun Hai's voice no longer had the previous grievance, and was trembling slightly with anger. What he wanted to tell was something that everyone in the academy was confused and curious about.
"I don't know what the outside world is saying, but I'm sure we were deceived by that old guy. We weren't possessed by demons at all. He is the real demon."
"That old guy killed a student from the academy, then turned around and falsely accused the master, and started to hunt us, deliberately driving us to the ice field. The master guessed his intention, and went to the ice field and tried his best. With the help of the terrain, I retained a trace of sanity and deceived the old guy. As for his serious injury, it was all an act."
No one could accept the sudden reversal. Xia Xiao scratched his head, feeling a little confused, but Jun Hai kept talking, as if he was running out of time and was too angry. He wanted to confess everything to the world in order to clear his name.
"That old guy is an undercover agent of the Demonic Path in the academy. He wanted to subvert the academy secretly, but he was exposed in front of the master, so he came up with this idea. With his identity and power, it is easy for him to do this. Moreover, if he forces my master and I to the ice field, we will be farther away from the academy. Even if the vice-president has great magical powers, it will be difficult for him to sense us. After killing the master, he severely injured himself and left a seed. He bought misery so that he could continue to take root in the academy."
"How is he going to subvert the academy?"
The mother star dragon's face was extremely cold. She didn't expect this old guy to be so insidious. However, there were many loopholes in Jun Hai's words. Xia Xiao observed very carefully, but there were still a few questions hidden in his heart.
First, if Gong Qingge and Jun Hai were not possessed by demons, how did they retain the memory crystal? Only the living can perform such a thing. Could it be that the old man paid attention to details and wanted to play the play more exquisitely, or pretended that Gong Qingge used the power of the magic way, so he left him with a breath?
Xia Xiao felt that both were possible. If he wanted to highlight the magic path, this method was the best. Moreover, if he was injured, everyone would only pay attention to his contribution to the academy!
Second, since Gong Qingge was still alive, why didn't he call the academy after Suantouhua died? The latter could cut off the connection when he was alive, but it turned into a seed and flew back to the academy, so he could also ask for help. Could it be that Gong Qingge was dead, but tore up the spiritual contract before his death, allowing the contracted beast with stronger vitality, that is, Junhai, to survive? And it was seriously injured, leaving only the memory crystal, but this was also the third question that Xia Xiao was most curious about.
Since Garlic Flower was an undercover agent placed by the Demonic Path in the academy, it must have companions. If it had companions, why didn't it find Gong Qingge and Jun Hai during this period of time and completely eliminate them? This is unacceptable.
Everything was half true and half false, making it hard to believe, but Xia Xiao knew one thing, that is, the place they were in was not under the ice, but inside the Junhai. It was already buried in the ice, with only its horn proudly pointing to the sky, like the last stubbornness, like a lighthouse calling for ships. But under the confusing truth, it also seemed to seduce the students of the college, making them come and go to disrupt the college.
"I don't know. This is beyond my ken. But I have some words that the master left for you."
Xia Xiao listened very seriously and tilted his ear.
