"I am the Demon King?" Gao Han closed the door of the villa and heard Zhongli Tingzhou's voice.
Gao Han asked back: "Do you think you are?"
Zhongli Tingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, and just when Gao Han thought he would say something, he changed the subject himself, "The Ten Ghosts of Genshan are the ten most powerful people in Genshan. Zangshan Ding is the sixth, and outsiders call them the Six Ghosts. The Big Ghost is the most powerful person in Genshan, and that is Shi Huo, the boss of Genshan."
"Well, aren't you curious about the things you can't remember? Maybe you really are the devil?" Gao Han asked meaningfully.
"I can't be the devil." Zhongli Tingzhou remained calm and composed like an immortal.
"Oh? Why are you so sure?" Gao Han smiled.
"The devil's method of killing is different from mine. The methods and means of cultivation cannot be disguised." Zhongli Tingzhou looked calm.
Gao Han looked at his fairy-like profile and nodded slowly: "That's true."
I have even convinced myself, so why should I be afraid of others finding out?
Gao Han went back to his room with a smile on his face.
"Where are you going?" Zhongli Tingzhou stared at him as he walked towards the room next to his, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Go back to my room." Gao Han turned around and saw his surprised face, and said with a smile: "I forgot that you lost your memory again. We are living together now, and you begged me to move in."
The implication is, don't think about chasing people away.
Zhongli Tingzhou put away the surprise on his face and said indifferently: "Well, I understand."
"Don't you want to say something?" Gao Han wanted to know what he was thinking now.
"There's nothing to say. We're dating, so it's normal for us to live together." Zhongli Tingzhou calmly accepted their relationship.
Gao Han was surprised. "You even know this. I thought you were like a fairy living in the heavenly palace and knew nothing."
"What did you say?" Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly clenched the magic weapon in his hand, his eyes flashing coldly.
"It was a slip of the tongue." Gao Han explained calmly.
Zhongli Tingzhou stared at him intently, as if trying to confirm whether he had really made a slip of the tongue.
I looked for a long time but couldn't figure out anything, so I had no choice but to give up.
In terms of facial paralysis, Gao Han was not really afraid of losing to him. Thinking of this, he went back to his room to practice.
…
"Father, the results are out. The people of Genshan have confirmed that Zhongli Tingzhou is not the Demon King." Yuan Shuzhi received the news and told Yuan Zhengshan immediately.
"Those people in Genshan can't find out what's going on?" Yuan Zhengshan's eyes reflected cold light.
Yuan Shuzhi lowered his head and said, "Yu Weiping personally checked it, and finally Zang Shanding came out to test it. Zang Shanding has broken through to the second level."
"This has not been able to bring out his true strength. It seems that Zhongli Tingzhou's strength is also between the second and third ranks. Zhongli Zheng has raised a good grandson. If he inherits the Zhongli family in the future, the Zhongli family will probably reach a higher level." Yuan Zhengshan closed his eyes slightly, his serious face still a little gloomy.
As long as the Zhongli family is around, the Yuan family will never be able to stand higher.
"Father……"
As Yuan Shuzhi opened his mouth, Yuan Zhengshan reached out to stop him, "Have you found out who is behind this? The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"We haven't found out yet, but judging by the means, it seems to be the work of the Demon Spirit," Yuan Shuzhi said seriously, "Most of the demon cultivators killed by the Demon King were the Demon Spirit's men. Now that they know that the Demon King is Zhongli Tingzhou, they will probably take revenge."
"No," Yuan Zhengshan narrowed his eyes slightly, "There must be other reasons."
"How did father know?" Yuan Shuzhi asked hurriedly.
"If Zhongli Tingzhou is the Demon King, even if he is exposed by Genshan, what can he do? The Zhongli family and the military will protect him and will not be able to injure him. If he is targeted by the two families, it will not be worth it."
"So father suspects that the evil spirit has other purposes. What could that be?" Yuan Shuzhi raised his head.
"Go check it out. This is an unexpected gain. If we can use it well, we can reap the benefits and buy some time for the Yuan family."
"I'll do it right away."
…
The news that Zhongli Tingzhou was not the Demon King was expected by many people, because this method was too low-level. In the limits of their thinking, Zhongli Tingzhou would never do something that would expose himself.
Unlike those big families and powerful forces, this caused an uproar on the Internet.
"Where are those people who said Zhongli Tingzhou is the Demon King?"
"Come out and let me slap you in the face."
"I want to know where are those people who were at the gate of Penglai University asking the school leaders for redress."
"What connection do they have with each other? It is a fact that their relatives died."
"At that time, there was clearly no evidence to prove that Zhongli Tingzhou was the Demon King, but these people's goal was so clear. In their hearts, they had already determined that he was the Demon King. Why? They even called reporters over. This is worth pondering."
"Zhongli Tingzhou's family is powerful. If he doesn't admit his mistake, how can the common people fight him? They must be prepared."
"Penglai University has always been famous for its fairness. How can you tell it won't work even without trying it?"
"Anyway, I think there must be a conspiracy against Zhongli Tingzhou."
"Oh, there's no smoke without fire."
"Wu Ni Mei, I'm a student from Penglai. From my impression, Senior Zhongli never takes the initiative to target others, nor does he look down on others. He is just aloof, but he is still a very nice person."
People on the Internet are arguing all the time.
…
After Gao Han's cultivation, the public opinion online had changed and he was no longer a threat to Zhongli Tingzhou.
In the evening, Zhongli Tingzhou received a call from the military.
"I understand. If they want to investigate, let them investigate." Zhongli Tingzhou hung up the phone expressionlessly.
"What's wrong?" Gao Han vaguely heard a few words but couldn't hear them clearly.
"The victim's family members brought reporters to the gate of the military headquarters to make a scene." Zhongli Tingzhou was brief and to the point, with a face as cold as ice.
"Why are you going to the military headquarters to cause trouble?"
"They want the military to help them catch the demon king."
Gao Han frowned, "Shouldn't this kind of thing be the responsibility of the military?"
Zhongli Tingzhou's face was as cold as ice. "The people behind this just haven't given up yet. They just want to force the military to intervene."
"What good will it do to force the military to confront them?"
"They haven't given up the idea that I'm the Demon King. If they find out in the end, they will be caught in a dilemma. This will be a handle against the military. But they are taking it for granted. I can never be the Demon King. In the end, it will be a futile effort. There's no need to pay any more attention to it." Zhongli Tingzhou obviously had no interest in this matter and was about to leave after he finished speaking.
"Where are we going?" Gao Han asked subconsciously.
Zhongli Tingzhou didn't even turn his head and said, "Practice. In a few days, I will leave Penglai to gain experience."
"That's good. There's no point staying in Penglai all the time. Remember to report your whereabouts after you go out."
Zhongli Tingzhou opened his mouth and said, "I have done this before?"
Gao Han lied expressionlessly, "Yeah."
The confusion on Zhongli Tingzhou's face flashed away, and in the end he said nothing, as if he agreed.
As soon as he left, Gao Han laughed out loud. Zhongli in white was really easy to fool. Shaking his head, he also went out.
The harvest of this trip to the disaster area was very rich. In addition to his own harvest, Zhongli Tingzhou gave him all his harvest, as if he believed that he would be able to refine better magical instruments. All he collected were high-level refining materials, so in the short term, he would no longer lack high-level materials.
Three days later, Zhongli Tingzhou went out for training and his return date was uncertain.
Gao Han made an appointment with Lin Ying, and the two of them went straight into the school's training room.
The two-person battle that the first-year students were looking forward to lasted seven or eight rounds every day without anyone knowing.
Ten days or half a month passed like this.
In the training room, Lin Ying was knocked out for the umpteenth time.
"No, no." Lin Ying waved his hands, looking depressed.
At the beginning when Gao Han called him to the training room, he was very excited, thinking that he could finally fight with him. He also wanted to know who was stronger between him and Gao Han.
He hasn't won a single fight in these days. Except for the first draw, he lost every time after that.
Lin Ying was also a person who refused to accept the consequences. He didn’t believe it at first, then suffered a series of defeats, and now he finally recognized the fact.
The gap between him and Gao Han is getting bigger and bigger.
"What do you usually eat? How come you have improved so quickly?" Lin Ying was very depressed.
Before going to the disaster area, his cultivation was one and a half levels higher than Gao Han's. After returning from the disaster area, Gao Han's cultivation was the same as his.
But this made him even more helpless, because the time it took for him to lose to Gao Han was getting shorter and shorter.
"You are too weak." Gao Han shook his head.
Lin Ying: “…”
The student who was once number one in the grade was said to be too weak by the student who came later and became number one in the grade. Who is to blame?
After returning home, Lin Ying, who never complained, couldn't help but complain to his brother.
"Brother, you are already very good, but the competition between people also needs to be based on the target. For example, if an ordinary senior student is compared with Sima Yi, there is definitely no comparison. Sima Yi is more powerful, right? But what about comparing Sima Yi with Zhongli Tingzhou?"
"Brother, you don't have to say anything more. No brother would hit his younger brother like you do." Lin Ying said speechlessly.
Lin Yun shrugged. "I don't want to discourage you, but you have to face reality. Anyway, I have already recognized it. Don't compare yourself with Gao Han. I have a feeling that he is a very special person."
"Is it your sixth sense again?" Lin Ying asked.
Lin Yun nodded, "Almost."
Lin Ying asked again: "I see. Don't go out recently. The teacher told me that the Black Wolf's people are still looking for you."
Lin Yun waved his hand, "Don't worry, I'm so afraid of death, how could I take the initiative to go out and suffer? I hope the dean can let me live in Penglai University. This is the university I have always dreamed of. I must enjoy it well."
Lin Ying felt sad when she heard this, "Brother..."
"Stop." Lin Yun stopped him in time, looked at him pitifully and said, "Stop talking about chicken soup for the soul, I'm about to vomit after drinking it."
Lin Ying: “…”
Lin Ying refused to go to the training room with Gao Han again, so Gao Han did not go to find him. The breakthrough he made in the disaster area had already been consolidated.
The strength of the fourth-level upper level is at the peak, and the next level is the third level. Breaking through too quickly will lead to an unstable foundation, which will do more harm than good, so he is not in a hurry.
After leaving the training room, he went to the dormitory. Before opening the door and going in, he suddenly paused.
