Qingming transformed into a dragon, raised his head, and carried Su Qing into the sky.
Shan Heng narrowed his eyes, stared at Qingming's back, quickly transformed, and followed.
Su Qing stared at Elder Huo Mu, and suddenly a streak of white appeared beside her. She turned her head curiously and met a pair of cold eyes, a pair of straight ears, sparkling white fur, and a pair of wings.
Wow! Su Qing rubbed her eyes and widened them again. This... She knew that Shan Heng was a spiritual beast, Tengu, but she didn't know that his original form was so beautiful. Her current appearance surprised her greatly. This... She really wanted to touch his wings.
Shan Heng felt a little embarrassed by Su Qing's direct gaze.
Flapping his wings, he took a step back.
He knew that his beast form aroused the curiosity of orcs, but no orc had ever been so straightforward as Su Qing. He saw the desire in her eyes. Shan Heng's eyes flashed slightly, and he almost bumped into a tree without paying attention.
Su Qing swung out her vines and pulled him, and he awkwardly met Su Qing's smiling eyes.
"Be careful."
Shan Heng blinked, his ears trembled, and nodded.
"Thank you!"
Su Qing shook his head.
"I should be the one to say thank you. You helped me find my child. I can't thank you enough."
Shan Heng was about to speak when Qing Ming suddenly possessed him and rushed into the forest.
Su Qing's expression changed when he saw his sixth senior brother lying on the ground.
She jumped down using the vines.
Qingming landed on the ground and turned into a human form, following closely behind Su Qing.
Shan Heng looked at Su Qing who had landed and hurried to follow.
Taoist Master Huomu looked at Lao Liu lying on the ground and reached out to take his pulse.
His brows were tightly furrowed.
"He was poisoned by the Soul Gu."
Elder Huomu’s words further confirmed what Su Qing said.
"Master, can you solve it?"
Elder Huomu nodded, took out a sharp knife, and with a flash of cold light, a blood mark appeared on the wrist of the sixth senior brother.
Elder Huomu took out a porcelain bottle, and a strange fragrance drifted in the air.
There seemed to be something wriggling in the blood vessels on Sixth Senior Brother’s exposed arm, and it was obviously a worm.
Su Qing took a step back in disgust, and Qing Ming put his arm around her shoulders and patted her on the back.
"Don't look."
Su Qing nodded and looked away.
Qing Ming hugged the person tighter in his arms and watched the worm come out of the blood vessel. A ball of fire came out from Elder Huomu's fingertips and burned the worm to death.
"It's okay, open your eyes!"
Su Qing opened his eyes and saw Elder Huomu helping his sixth senior brother treat his wounds.
"Master, is Sixth Brother okay?"
Elder Huomu nodded and kicked.
There was none of the gentleness that comes from bandaging a wound.
"stand up!"
Elder Huomu shouted angrily, and the Sixth Senior Brother woke up slowly.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Elder Huomu had a dark face.
"Where did you take Su Qing's child?"
Sixth Senior Brother’s expression changed.
"It wasn't me, it was Elder Sanshi. He gave me something to drink and my body went out of control. I didn't mean to do that."
He looked at Su Qing with a guilty look on his face.
"Junior sister, this is all my fault, please punish me!"
It was all his fault for being too careless. He didn't expect that someone would take advantage of him.
Su Qing shook his head.
Sixth Senior Brother was also used by Sanshi, so what was he wrong about?
"Sixth Brother, you can testify for me. I want my child back."
Sixth Brother nodded.
"Sanshi, get out here!"
Elder Huomu also became angry and rushed into Sanshi's territory, deciding to ask him what he wanted to do.
The disciples of Elder Sanshi looked at each other and raised their hands to face Elder Huomu.
"Elder Huomu, our master is in seclusion. He has instructed that no one can disturb him."
Su Qing was anxious. Sanshi was in seclusion. Was he hurting the children?
"You ask Elder Sanshi to come out and return the child to us!"
Su Qing anxiously swung the whip, and the two disciples at the door of Elder Sanshi saw Su Qing taking action.
They all drew their weapons.
Elder Huomu stepped forward.
He looked at the two of them dangerously with a glare.
"I am here today, let's see who dares to hurt my disciple."
Sanshi's two disciples looked at each other and dared not say a word.
Elder Huomu threw them over and kicked the door open.
There was no sign of Sanshi in the room; he had disappeared.
Elder Huomu's face turned red with anger.
"Look for him. You must dig three feet into the ground to find him."
Elder Huomu was angry. His apprentice was plotted against time and time again by the student elders in the academy. They really thought that he, Huomu, was just a decoration.
He was angry, he was really angry.
Su Qing also knew that if Sanshi was not found, the children would be in greater danger.
She had to use the system.
[He is in the room, just sprinkle some powder and he will come out.]
Su Qing didn't understand, but a handful of powder appeared in her hand, and she stood at the door and sprinkled it into the house.
White flour scattered, and Sanshi was standing on the empty ground, holding three little ones in his arms.
"Give me back my child."
When Su saw the kids, he rushed over to grab them like crazy. Sanshi sneered, his eyes full of madness.
"They have forbidden techniques from the academy, and I am also trying to ensure the safety of all students in the academy. You are so excited, is there something fishy going on?"
Sanshi waved his hand and Su Qing was knocked away. Qingming's face changed, he jumped out and hugged him.
Su Qing wanted to go up a thousand, but was stopped by Qing Ming.
"Sanshi, that's Su Qing's child, give it back to her. The bullshit forbidden technique you mentioned is just a rumor, it can't be taken seriously."
Elder Huomu was no match for Sanshi and could only persuade him.
Sanshi didn't listen to him at all.
She hugged the three children tightly and refused to let go.
The few people were in a stalemate, and the commotion here attracted the elders and students of the academy.
When everyone saw the child in Elder Sanshi's arms, their eyes flashed with speculation. Thinking of the legends in the academy, they all believed that the previous rumors were correct and Su Qing was really using the child to practice forbidden techniques.
Su Qing's face turned grim when he heard these people's discussions. Suddenly, an angry voice sounded.
"Don't be fooled by him. Elder Sanshi and several elders in the academy are not good people. They harmed students with high skills just to obtain higher skills."
Everyone turned around and saw an orc in a disheveled state walking out. Some familiar people were shocked when they saw him.
"This isn't Jian Ming. Isn't he a traitor? How could he come back after being expelled from the academy?"
Jian Ming's eyes were cold as he stared at Sanshi's slightly surprised expression and laughed wildly.
"You thought I was dead, didn't you? I can't die willingly until I have cleared my name."
Jianming took something out of his bag and showed it to everyone.
"This is the secret of the correspondence between Sanshi and the elders. I discovered their activities and was thrown out of the academy by them. Today I will show everyone their ugly faces."
All the students came forward and saw the handwriting on the parchment. They looked up at Sanshi in surprise.
They never expected that the elder they respected was such a despicable person.
