Chapter 43: You should be more than enough! Second update

  "Zhuge Mingyue!" Wu Tianfeng instantly recognized Zhuge Mingyue, who had become a celebrity in the academy after that battle with the exchange student. It was only natural that he knew him.

  The wind leopard jumped up and down, and the people who were beating Xue Zihao were all knocked flying out, one by one lying on the ground moaning half dead.

  "Haozi, are you alright?!" Zhuge Mingyue stepped forward and helped Xue Zihao up, looking at him with concern. Xue Zihao's face was covered in wounds, his forehead also filled with fresh blood.

  "It's nothing, I've protected the vital spot." Xue Zi Hao spat out a mouthful of blood foam and shook his head.

  Zhuge Mingyue looked up at Wu Tianfeng, whose face was somewhat unsightly, and Pang Wuji, who was slightly surprised. His voice turned icy: "Pang Wuji, it seems your leg has recovered?" Pang Wuji's face instantly turned black as if water would drip out of it.

  "This matter has nothing to do with you, Zhuge Mingyue. You'd best not interfere." Wu Tianfeng stepped forward two steps, his face gloomy as he spoke to Zhuge Mingyue.

  "He is Wu Tianfeng." Xue Zihao said in a low voice.

  "Don't think that just because you're from the Zhuge family, I'll be afraid of you." Wu Tianfeng sneered, "I advise you to know your place and leave. Besides, do you really think your Wind Leopard is invincible?"

  "I never thought my hurricane was invincible, but with you here, it should be more than enough!" As Zhuge Mingyue finished speaking, Feng Bao suddenly leapt up and transformed into a residual shadow, charging straight at Wu Tianfeng.

  However, the hurricane did not knock down Wu Tianfeng. At the last moment, someone swung a giant sword to block the hurricane. The crisp sound of "Qiang" was the sound of the hurricane's sharp claws and weapons colliding.

  The hurricane flipped over in mid-air and landed steadily beside Zhuge Mingyue, letting out a low growl as it stared at the person who had suddenly appeared.

  Willow looks east?

  Zhuge Mingyue furrowed her brow as she looked at the person in front of her. The person in front of her was a teacher from Baiyu Academy, a Sky-level swordsman with impressive abilities and a good reputation, well-liked by the students.

  "Zhuge Mingyue, although you were the top student in your beginner class, it's not right to be so arrogant and violent in the academy, bullying your classmates." Liu Dongwang frowned and scolded Zhuge Mingyue, "Your actions are also too excessive. Is this what happens when you rely on your powerful magical pet, the Cloud Pattern Wind Leopard?" As he spoke, Liu Dongwang turned his head to look at the several students lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

  "Yes, Teacher Liu. Zhuge Mingyue's move was ruthless. If you hadn't arrived in time, we would have been in danger." Wu Tianfeng hastily interjected at this moment.

  Zhuge Mingyue looked at Liu Dongwang with a cold gaze, and she saw very clearly that Liu Dongwang's eyes were filled with disdain and disgust. As for Zhuge Mingyue's identity as an illegitimate daughter, some people were ashamed, some were disgusted, and some were surprised. This Liu Dongwang was obviously one of those who despised her status. So it wasn't surprising that he took Wu Tianfeng's side without asking about the circumstances.

  Xue Zihao was furious, wanting to say something, but Zhuge Mingyue lightly pinched his arm, stopping him. Everyone could see that Liu Dongwang was going to help Wu Tianfeng and the others, so saying anything more would be futile. Moreover, the opponent was a Sky Swordsmen, and facing him in a storm would not give them much of an advantage.

  "Teacher Liu, I remembered your 'teaching' today." Zhuge Mingyue revealed a brilliant smile, supporting Xue Zihao as they walked backwards, but before leaving, she gave Wu Tianfeng a faint glance.

  It was just a faint glance, but Wu Tianfeng felt a chill rising from the base of his neck. As for Pang Wujin, his gaze had not left Zhuge Mingyue's body since she appeared.

  Liu Dongwang shot a cold light from his eyes, seeing off Zhuge Mingyue and the others as they left. However, in his heart, he was secretly despising Zhuge Mingyue's identity. She was just an illegitimate daughter, yet she dared to speak so arrogantly. Did she even put him, her teacher, in her eyes?

  ……

  Zhuge Mingyue and Xue Zixiao walked back and forth for a while, when they met Wan Qichen and Ling Feiyang in a hurry. The parrot was flapping its wings above their heads, apparently leading them here. As soon as Wan Qichen saw the heavily injured Xue Zixiao, he became anxious and rushed over to support him, examining his wounds: "Haizi, are you okay? Are you okay? Where are you hurt? We'll go to the infirmary right now."

  "I'm fine, just a flesh wound." Xue Zihao shook his head, "Mingyue arrived just in time."

  "Who is it? Who on earth is it?" Wan Xi Chen almost jumped up.

  "It's Wu Tianfeng and Pang Wujie." Zhuge Mingyue said calmly, "Today, Liu Dongwang helped them out, next time we'll settle the score with them again."

  "Wu Tianfeng and Pang Wuji are together?" Wan Xichen's face suddenly turned ugly.

  "Fatty, what's going on?" Xue Zihao looked at Wan Qi Chen's face and knew that things weren't that simple.

  "Let's go, we'll talk after we get to the infirmary." Wan Xi Chen supported Xue Zi Hao as they walked towards the school gate.

  After bandaging Xue Zihao at the medical institution, upon hearing the doctor confirm that all of Xue Zihao's injuries were external, Wan Qichen finally felt slightly more at ease.

  "The Wu family has been too arrogant lately." Wan Xi Chen clenched his fists tightly, "It's time to teach them a lesson. This time it's clearly aimed at me."

  "It's probably not that simple." Ling Fei Yang said calmly after a moment of contemplation.

  "After a slight silence, Wan Xi Chen slowly said: 'Yes, I also suspect that it's not that simple. Don't worry, I'll handle it quickly.'"

  "Be careful, Fatty. You and Háo Zi should both carry some medicine with you at all times. Háo Zi, from now on, it's best if you always have some medicine on hand. If you can't win a fight, just run away. There's no shame in retreating to live another day. You can always find an opportunity to get revenge later."

  "Ah, I was careless today." Xue Zihao nodded.

  "Let's go, we'll send Hǎozi back home first." Zhūgě Míngyuè stood up.

  ……

  At night, Zhuge Mingyue lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze. Ling Feiyang carried his treasure sword and quietly left the city to continue learning from that old man.

  All of this, Zhuge Mingyue was completely unaware of.

  The next morning, as soon as they arrived at school, they heard a shocking piece of news.

  Liu Dongwang is dead!

  Last night, Liu Dongwang was killed at home, and his house was turned upside down.

  Zhuge Mingyue and Ling Feiyang exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes. Liu Dongwang was a Sky-level swordsman with considerable strength and no known grudges against anyone. His home had been ransacked, but was the motive really wealth? Yet, ordinary thieves wouldn't have such abilities. Liu Dongwang was just an ordinary teacher without significant family assets, so why would robbers target him? All of this raised many suspicions!

  The whole day, the college was discussing this matter.

  Zhuge Mingyue had mixed feelings in her heart. Yesterday, Liu Dongwang's partial help made her angry, and she was preparing to settle accounts after autumn. But unexpectedly, Liu Dongwang actually died last night.

  Who could have done it?

  Meditation, recitation, meditation, recitation... A day's study passed in this dry and dull repetition. When school was over, Wan Xizhen had already finished class early and was waiting at the door.

  "Let's go eat together. Then we'll bring some food to watch the hamsters." Wan Qi Chen revealed a heartfelt smile as soon as he saw Zhuge Mingyue.

  Three people walked and chatted along the way, and naturally they also talked about Liu Dongwang's affairs. After discussing it, they also felt that there were many suspicious points. As they spoke, they arrived at the wine building.

  As soon as they entered the wine house, there were people in the hall discussing Liu Dongwang's affairs. Originally, Zhuge Mingyue didn't pay attention to it, but after hearing what a few people said, her heart skipped a beat, and Wan Qichen found a corner in the hall to sit down and eat.

  "You've heard, right? A teacher at Byakuga Academy was murdered."

  "I heard that the teacher is Liu Dongwang, he's really powerful."

  "Yes, but according to my brother's friend's uncle's sister-in-law's son, there were not many wounds on the body, and the fatal wound was a knife cut on the throat. The other party was too brutal."

  "I heard it was Luo Xiao's doing? That B-list fugitive."

  "It's very likely. Luo Xiao hasn't been caught yet, last time he said he escaped to our Cang Feng City, and then there was no news of him. Do you think he is still hiding in our Cang Feng City?"

  "What's the point of Na Luo Xiang killing Liu Dongwang? And they even rummaged through the house, making a mess. Does Liu Dongwang have any money?"

  "That's not necessarily true, maybe they have some treasures hidden at home that we don't know about."

  "After all, we're poor people, no need to worry about these things."

  "Whatever, let's just drink."

  ……

  Zhuge Mingyue and Wan Qi Chen exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and speculation in each other's eyes.

  The people who are after Luo Xiao have arrived, they must be looking for that treasure map!

  Digression

  Said it before, here comes another round, hmm, it's coming!

  Will there be an update tomorrow? Do you guys want 2 or not 2? Haha
