"Okay, you have ambition. Do whatever you want with this matter. I, Dante, will take full responsibility."
Xuan Yi's eyes lit up and she shouted directly. Although Xuan Yi is a woman, her temper is no less fiery than a man's.
Not to mention that Mu Gu is a member of the Soul Palace. Now, because of Yao Chen, Xuan Yi's dislike for the Soul Palace is growing every day.
"Ahem!"
Xuan Kongzi coughed, interrupting Xuan Yi. He turned to Liu Xi and said:
"Originally, Dante and the Soul Palace were the highest powers. It's hard to let such a rumor that could easily provoke a war go unnoticed. However,
this time, the Soul Palace has gone beyond all bounds. They attacked and killed the participants before the Dan Conference, mercilessly exterminated the alchemists in the Dan Realm, and attempted to forcibly remove the seal in the Star Domain.
These villains, disregarding the lives of countless people in the Holy City of Dan, should be punished as an example to others. Therefore, we will simply stop the Soul Palace's intrusion."
Lu Xi understood and smiled meaningfully. As a top official in Dante, Xuan Kongzi should still have a legitimate reason for his actions.
In that case, let Mu Gu live for a few more minutes, do what he must, and be a happy ghost on his way to hell!
No, his soul has already left...
Liu Xi said:
"I understand. Mu Gu tried to break the seal, disregarding the lives of countless people in Shengdan City. He truly deserves to die!"
Cao Ying, Dan Chen, Song Qing, and Xiao Yan watched as the old man and the young man accused Mu Gu of crimes in a few words, their heads tingling with fear.
They wanted to kill Mu Gu even if he hadn't broken the seal yet, but the accusations had already been made. Mu Gu remained silent for a few seconds.
Xiao Yan, hiding behind Xuan Yi, thought of the overwhelming pressure he was facing, and gritted his teeth to suppress his dislike for Liu Xi.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Even if Liu Xi also harbored a grudge against me for stealing the fire, since he can fight the Soul Palace, he will have to pretend to be friendly first…"
In this state, even Tian Leizi nodded in agreement: "Yes, our Dantha is a neutral force after all, it is better not to allow gossip. But since the Soul Palace is unkind, do not blame us for being unfair."
Seeing that Liu Xi quickly understood everything, Xuan Kongzi stroked his beard and smiled contentedly, then held back his smile and said in a deep voice:
"The most important thing is that Mu Gu is also a veteran douzun. We do not need to mention him, but for you, it is still a serious problem.
If something is impossible, do not force things, just postpone them. I don't want you to lose your future potential just to kill Mu Gu."
A warm wave filled Liu Xi's heart. This feeling of care was still very pleasant.
"Don't worry, Master Xuan. Mu Gu is just a pile of dead bones in a grave. No matter what plans he makes for the Three Thousand Flames, he will not succeed…"
After all, the Three Thousand Flames belong to me. How could Mu Gu get hold of them? Liu Xi thought gloomily.
Everything that needed to be said has already been said. Now everything depends on Liu Xi's actions. The only person in the Star Field who can stop Mu Gu is Liu Xi… Xuan Kongzi thought as he handed out signal beads to everyone.
"Disperse! The Star Field will open tomorrow. Don't be late. I hope that one of you will gain the recognition of the Three Thousand Flames, and you won't have to worry so much in the future." "
I will definitely live up to Master Xuan's expectations!"
Liu Xi and the others left one after another. Xuan Yi left Xiao Yan behind, and it was unclear what would happen next.
After leaving the library,
Liu Xi turned around and left. Cao Ying had already started to giggle, and Dan Chen followed suit.
Seeing this, Song Qing's face, which had been beaming with a smile until now, suddenly fell. He opened his mouth, but was unable to speak.
Standing in the corner of the corridor, coldly watching Liu Xi, Cao Ying, Dan Chen, and Song Qing leave, he muttered to himself, "I was ignored, I'm an eighth-grade alchemist…"
Being in the eighth grade of alchemist was like an invisible gap, completely separating Song Qing from Liu Xi, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen.
At least, that was what Song Qing thought.
"The three thousand flames should be mine…"
Song Qing gritted his teeth, turned around, and walked away, in the opposite direction from Liu Xi and the others. His back looked quite empty.
Having suffered numerous failures in the Alchemist Congress, Song Qing knew the true gap between himself and Liu Xi, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen. Before reaching the eighth grade, even his harsh words would be laughed at.
"Master, do you know who this Xiao Yan's teacher is?!
When we were called, I was a little confused. Only when Xiao Yan said his master's name did I understand why he thought so highly of Xiao Yan!"
Cao Ying smiled, following Liu Xi's example. Her pretty face showed undisguised surprise and that feeling:
"If you can't guess, ask me and I'll tell you!" Yao Chen? Who could it be? He was once captured by the Soul Palace, leaving the Strange Fire to Xiao Yan. Without Yao Chen, Xiao Yan even changed his Fire Art… Liu Xi understood very well what was going on. "That was Senior Yao Chen, the winner of the previous Alchemy Competition. Like Mr. Liu Xi, he was once considered the best alchemist on the continent!" Unfortunately, he was killed in the Soul Palace, and now his soul has been captured. How vile! They always persecute us alchemists." Before Liu Xi could say anything, Dan Chen took the initiative to introduce him. His voice was full of admiration, but the object of that admiration was Liu Xi. It was obvious that after Liu Xi surpassed Dan Chen in alchemy at the alchemy competition, he immediately fell in love. Speaking of Yao Chen's fate, Dan Chen blushed slightly, as if sympathizing with him. She looked quite indignant. Seeing that her plan had failed, Cao Ying giggled and joked, "Sister Dan Chen is so boring. I was just about to ask you to guess!" Let me guess, does Sister Danchen have a lover, and he's right next to us, haha…" Danchen was delicate by nature. When Cao Ying provoked her, her face would become even redder, all the way to her tender ears, and her eyes would fill with mist. "I, I, I don't…" Liu Xi looked at Cao Ying speechlessly. This woman did this on purpose, it must have been on purpose. She immediately turned around and consoled Danchen: "Danchen, don't pay attention. Cao Ying was just joking. Don't take it to heart…" Then, perhaps because she was shy, Danchen didn't wait for Liu Xi to finish. She said, "Goodbye, sir," turned around and ran away. Liu Xi asked with annoyance, "Why are you bullying a little girl? Is it funny?" Cao Ying clicked her tongue and smiled, squinting like a fox who was always stealing chickens. "I'm just testing the waters, sir. If Dan Chen agrees, you'll get it right away. And you blame me!" Liu Xi chuckled, put his hands behind his back and quickened his pace toward his house. "I don't know you. You think one thing and say another. I don't like it." Cao Ying hurriedly caught up with Liu Xi and said, "Since you don't like it, can I tell you the truth?" It feels like I'm in love with you and I'm already weeding out the competition!"
