Quickly, it was Ji Chaoyun’s flip to take the stage.

His present apparel was a disciple uniform which was straightforward to maneuver in; it had slender sleeves and a cinched waist that displayed his skinny and slender determine. He slowly walked up the White Jade Platform, Jin Ting doing the identical on the opposite aspect.

Lastly standing reverse one another, they bowed in greeting when the golden gong on the platform rang. The second the third gong fell, the 2 instantly drew their swords!

Baizhang Territory’s strikes had been conceited and highly effective. They’d all the time used pressure to win, and targeted on rapidly ending their battles. Although Jin Ting’s roots weren’t the most effective, as soon as he took the lead towards an opponent with low non secular energy like Ji Chaoyun, it could be a simple win.

Jin Ting’s thrust was as easy and blunt as might be, and his uncooked sword intent flared in the direction of Ji Chaoyun.

Unexpectedly, within the face of such a fierce transfer, Ji Chaoyun didn’t retreat. He walked in the direction of the shrewd and fierce sword, his lips slowly curving right into a assured arc.

“What the— Ji Chaoyun’s so highly effective now that he can counterattack that transfer?”

“I assumed it could be straightforward for Jin shixiong to beat him, however now it appears the 2 are clearly evenly matched.”

“What evenly matched? Don’t you see that Ji Chaoyun got here right here ready? Jin shixiong is being suppressed to demise. It’s not good to go on like this.”

“Hey, Jin shixiong is actually unfortunate. If he loses this duel, he’ll have to attend one other 12 months to be promoted.”

There was loads of dialogue beneath the White Jade Platform. Feng Qi stood behind the gang, a smug smile on his lips.

How might the particular person he personally taught lose?

He stared on the skinny and slender determine on the White Jade platform, and out of the blue remembered the scene when he’d first met this particular person three months in the past.

It was additionally right here that the seemingly weak younger man, counting on his very good swordsmanship and martial arts method, defeated two Heaven-rank disciples and attracted his gaze.

Feng Qi nonetheless remembered the way in which Ji Chaoyun had checked out him when he’d first seen him. These clear eyes of his had been now not calm, the shock and unhappiness in his eyes virtually overflowing.

Doubtless seeing him as that particular person ba?

It was simply that he hadn’t understood the turbulent feelings in Ji Chaoyun’s eyes. At the moment… what had he been enthusiastic about?

——He desires to struggle this little dragon.

He wished to know the true power of somebody who might defeat each Music Zhifei and Jiang Cheng with out exerting all of their power.

He wished to know the way a lot energy this lovely and virtually seductive little demon dragon possessed.

Feng Qi subconsciously touched the gold chain in between his wrists. For the primary time, the inconsiderate Second Highness Feng felt a bit regretful.

It should’ve been painful in the beginning.

How might he have executed it?

If it had been now… he would’ve simply stood there and let him stab each swords in the direction of him.

Feng Qi was nonetheless in a daze when he out of the blue heard the disciples round him speaking. “Aren’t they preventing a bit too fiercely? Killing to win the match?”

Feng Qi was startled and seemed up on the platform.

Ji Chaoyun’s swordsmanship grew to become swifter with each second that handed, and his strikes had been ruthless, forcing Jin Ting to retreat step-by-step, virtually unstoppable.

Within the enviornment competitors, it was stipulated that leaving a deadly wound on the opponent’s physique would imply victory. In spite of everything, the competitors was not usually like a life-and-death confrontation. Often, so long as one aspect utterly broke by means of all of the defenses of the opposite and spilled sufficient blood, the winner and loser may very well be decided.

However now, although Ji Chaoyun had clearly defeated Jin Ting, the 2 nonetheless hadn’t stopped.

Feng Qi assessed the scenario for a second, frowning tightly.

The issue didn’t lay with Jin Ting, however with Ji Chaoyun.

Ji Chaoyun didn’t cease, each transfer of his destined to kill. Jin Ting didn’t dare to cease!

“Ji Chaoyun, what are you doing?!” On the stage, Jin Ting’s pitiful determine lastly couldn’t assist shouting loudly as he dodged the opposite’s assaults.

What answered him was an oncoming sword. Between the shadow of the sword, Jin Ting clearly noticed a sinister, murderous gentle flashing in Ji Chaoyun’s eyes.

He was startled, and his protection couldn’t assist however decelerate by half a second.

Ji Chaoyun’s strikes had been cruel, and Jin Ting’s absentmindedness virtually grew to become a deadly mistake. He watched the sharp fringe of the sword method his neck, and earlier than he even had time to shut his eyes, he was out of the blue roughly pushed again.

Stab!——

From the platform got here the sound of a sword piercing flesh. Jin Ting fell to the bottom, and when he seemed up, a slender determine stood in entrance of him, the blade of a sword piercing by means of his shoulder.

This misfortune occurred in a short time. Steady exclamations arose from the viewers, as if they wished to hurry on stage.

“Don’t come right here!” Feng Qi shouted loudly. His garments had been stained purple with blood, which dripped down the blade of the sword.

However he simply frowned barely. Elevating his hand, he held the weapon tightly earlier than Ji Chaoyun might draw it again. He seemed on the pair of demonic eyes in entrance of him, and softly mentioned, “Settle down. Ji Chaoyun, are you able to hear me?”

The glazed vertical pupils in Ji Chaoyun’s eyes had utterly pale. Listening to this voice, he froze.

What am I doing?

I… I stabbed him?

“Feng… Feng Qi…” Ji Chaoyun’s eyes regained a bit readability.

He had no thought why issues had turned out this fashion.

Whereas he’d competed with Jin Ting, as his non secular energy progressively depleted, not solely did his power not weaken, however one other extra highly effective and reckless pressure was born inside his physique.

The facility was like a prairie hearth, immediately igniting the demon energy he had been suppressing for a very long time. It additionally made his rationality uncontrolled.

Ji Chaoyun was solely aware for a short time earlier than he was devoured as soon as extra by the clamouring killing intent inside him.

He out of the blue pulled out the sword and stabbed Feng Qi once more.

“Chaoyun!” Feng Qi turned to keep away from the assault, however earlier than he might make a transfer, a ray of non secular energy flew from a distance and immediately hit the again of Ji Chaoyun’s head.

The stream of non secular power on Ji Chaoyun’s sword dissipated. The second his physique relaxedd, he fell. Feng Qi subconsciously caught him, seemed up, and didn’t know when Immortal Lord Kai Yang had come to White Jade Platform, his eyes surprisingly chilly.

“Hongmeng Academy has by no means had something like this occur since its institution. Ji Chaoyun have to be severely punished!”

“The matter has not been investigated clearly, why ought to Kai Yang-jun rush to judgement?”

“Investigation? Now that the proof is conclusive, what else ought to be investigated?!”

Feng Qi occurred to be outdoors the Council Corridor. Listening to these phrases, he paused barely then stepped inside.

Within the Council Corridor, all seven immortals of the academy had been gathered collectively, a uncommon incidence; it precipitated the environment to be significantly sombre. Feng Qi’s expression didn’t flicker, and he bowed to the gang. “Greetings to all of the Immortal Elders.”

Tianshu sat on the head of the desk with a critical expression. “How is your harm?”

Feng Qi had turned into a clear disciple gown. The wound beneath was bandaged, however his expression was regular, virtually as if he was not injured in any respect. “It’s only a pores and skin harm, there’s no difficulty.”

Tianshu nodded and questioned, “You reside with Ji Chaoyun. Have you learnt what’s been incorrect with him lately?”

Feng Qi discretely frowned. “This disciple doesn’t know what Immortal Elder means. This disciple has been with Ji Chaoyun daily. He concentrates on practising swordsmanship frequently, which is not any totally different from earlier than.”

As quickly as he mentioned this, Kai Yang – who was beside him – snorted coldly, noncommittally.

Feng Qi pretended to not hear him, and requested, “Ji Chaoyun, is he…”

Tianshu: “The Immortal Physician has already handled him. Earlier than the second stage, he took some type of secret drugs to advertise non secular energy. Maybe the dose was too massive, which precipitated his non secular energy to go uncontrolled.”

Feng Qi was startled, his face altering out of the blue. “Unimaginable, he would by no means—”

“How are you aware he wouldn’t?” Kai Yang out of the blue stood up and mentioned coldly, “Earlier than he gained the primary place within the secret realm, I heard somebody secretly speaking about him utilizing some tips within the evaluation. It’s simply that after I rewatched the sunshine mirrors within the Supervisory Examination Corridor and located no issues, I let him go. Fascinated with it now, he may need already began taking these secret medicines since earlier than the key realm examination!”

Kai Yang turned to face Tianshu and mentioned sternly, “Tianshu-jun, Hongmeng Academy has by no means shielded anybody who cheated for private acquire. This time, he have to be severely punished!”

Feng Qi’s eyes flickered barely, however his ideas rapidly calmed down.

Ji Chaoyun would by no means cheat. The place did the key drugs come from, and who wished to hurt him?

“Kai Yang-jun, relax. Let’s focus on it first,” Yao Guang-jun mentioned. “To me, it’s higher to attend for Chaoyun to get up and ask once more. Chaoyun doesn’t seem to be somebody who might do such a factor. What if he was actually framed? Our Hongmeng Academy can’t incorrect individuals like this.”

“May it’s that while you ask, he’ll inform the reality?” Kai Yang-jun mentioned. “He takes secret drugs, loses management of his non secular energy, and hurts his fellow disciple within the enviornment. All these collectively are usually not sufficient to show his crime? Nonetheless not sufficient proof?”

“Not sufficient.” Feng Qi stood up straight and mentioned calmly, “You don’t have any proof to show that he took the drugs himself.”

“You—”

Feng Qi bowed to Tianshu and mentioned, “The key drugs difficulty is certainly not that straightforward. This disciple is keen to vouch for Ji Chaoyun, requesting to completely examine the matter and show his innocence.”

“You’re defending Ji Chaoyun, and also you even need to do an intensive investigation your self. Why?”

Feng Qi: “If Kai Yang-jun doesn’t belief me, he can ship the disciples of the Supervisory Examination Corridor to analyze.”

“High quality… High quality!” Kai Yang-jun sneered. “I’ll see how lengthy you dare to behave recklessly! Didn’t you say you wished to vouch for him? Whether it is came upon that he certainly did so, what’s going to you do?”

Feng Qi stared into the opposite’s eyes, and phrase by phrase, he firmly declared, “I’m keen to comply with him, have my cultivation abolished and be expelled from the academy.”

In an empty darkish room, Ji Chaoyun curled up within the nook, not but awake.

His wrists had been in a pair of shackles, one finish extending to the wall. These chains might each restrain his non secular energy and restrict his actions, however the identical couldn’t be mentioned in regards to the surging demon energy in his physique.

Ji Chaoyun solely felt that his complete physique was cold and hot. The rampant non secular energy couldn’t be vented, and therefore, it become a bone-piercing ache that swept by means of all of him. He tried his finest to curve up his arms and toes, urgent his brow towards the chilly tough floor.

It felt so dangerous.

May somebody assist him…

At this second, the door of the darkish room was pushed open, and a determine got here in.

Feng Qi rapidly walked to Ji Chaoyun’s aspect and picked him up, inflicting the chains to collide towards one another. Feng Qi’s eyes darkened. “Who requested you to chain him, unlock it for me!”

The 2 disciples who’d adopted Feng Qi hurriedly stepped ahead, and rushed to untie the shackles on Ji Chaoyun’s wrists. “Your, Your Highness, this was an order from Immortal Elder Kai Yang. It’s none of our Principle Corridor enterprise, so don’t—”

Feng Qi ignored them.

He took off his gown, wrapped an arm beneath Ji Chaoyun’s shoulders and the opposite beneath his knees, then strode out of the cell.

The collection of actions had been clean like water, extraordinarily pure, and unexpectedly quick. A second handed, and solely the 2 disciples had been left inside.They checked out one another blankly.

The teleportation circle lit up on the darkish mountain street. Feng Qi stepped out of the circle with Ji Chaoyun in his arms.

“Maintain on a bit longer, we’re virtually there.” Ji Chaoyun’s physique grew to become hotter and warmer; Feng Qi lowered his head and whispered in his ear, strolling ahead alongside the mountain street.

In only a quick distance, Ji Chaoyun had modified again to his half-demon look.

He leaned towards Feng Qi’s arms, his lengthy silver hair scattered behind him, and a pair of dragon horns on his brow, glowing with a gentle halo beneath the moonlight.

His physique was so uncomfortable, and beneath the torture of the rampant non secular energy, he couldn’t even realise that there was one other extra turbulent and virtually uncontainable upsurge inside him, which was making a speedy comeback.

A candy clogging scent emanated from him uncontrollably. Feng Qi’s footsteps froze, and his respiration grew to become chaotic. “Ji, Ji Chaoyun, restrain your scent.”

Ji Chaoyun couldn’t hear what he was saying in any respect, and even when he’d clearly heard, such an act was not possible.

The key drugs that got here from who-knew-where stimulated not solely the demon energy that was nonetheless suppressed in his physique, but in addition the warmth that had been forcibly suppressed by his cultivation for a whole lot of years.

Each dragon and phoenix had been immortal beasts. Like different beasts, throughout their warmth interval, their our bodies would unconsciously launch a specifically inducing scent, which was sufficient to stimulate different beasts to fall into warmth collectively.

The gate of the disciple courtyard was kicked open, inflicting the koi within the lotus pond to scatter away.

Feng Qi’s eyes stayed targeted. Holding Ji Chaoyun, he strode in the direction of the bamboo forest behind the home. The forest was misty with water vapour. Feng Qi put Ji Chaoyun by the pool and bent over to assist him unbutton his garments, solely to seek out that his arms had been shaking uncontrollably.

With Feng Qi’s present cultivation, he was not simply influenced by others.

However immediately, he was injured and weakened. Along with that, the particular person in entrance of him was Ji Chaoyun…

Feng Qi’s eyes had been purple, and he compelled himself to relax. His voice was hoarse and shaky. “Chaoyun, you may’t go on like this anymore. Can you alter again to your authentic type?”

Ji Chaoyun lastly opened his eyes.

These glass-like vertical pupils stared at him blankly, as in the event that they didn’t perceive what he was speaking about.

Feng Qi was unable to bear it the extra he checked out him. Some type of innate intuition was consuming away at his sanity little by little.

He out of the blue acquired up, turned his head and walked away.

“Don’t go…”

Feng Qi took one other step.

He turned his head. Ji Chaoyun was sitting by the pool, his purple eyes beneath the moonlight full of mist.

Within the steaming water, these misplaced eyes gave the impression to be Feng Qi, as if unable to see anything. He made a low-pitched, helpless cry, born from his indescribable ache and need. “Assist me…Assist…”

“Feng Qi…”

With a roar in Feng Qi’s thoughts, the string of motive was lastly and totally damaged.

He rotated and walked to the pool, grabbed Ji Chaoyun’s gown and pulled him up, lowered his head, and kissed him fiercely.
