Chapter 205: Chapter 118: Zhou Celestial People_3

A few minutes later.

Yan Yan’s voice rang out.

“The first analysis results are in place.”

…

Cold Plum City’s Central Hospital.

In the special ward, An Ning lay in the healing pod, her breathing steadying, and her complexion taking on a hint of redness.

Outside the ward.

Lu Jinfeng stood against the wall, accompanied by a few Patrol Team members around him.

At this moment.

In an instant, Lu Jinfeng clearly sensed that everything around him fell silent, and the hospital tiles beneath his feet turned into a sea surface, with a male figure standing ahead, his back facing him.

It was a male figure clad in specially made combat attire, standing with his hands behind his back, his hands wrapped with black combat bandages.

Seeing this scene, Lu Jinfeng was not alarmed; instead, he felt a bit delighted: “Teacher Zhou.”

The visitor turned around.

He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a mustache, appearing to be middle-aged.

The leading teacher of this mission from Time Law Academy.

Zhou Celestial Being!

He bore the name Celestial Being.

Because he really was a Martial Arts Family in the Celestial Human Realm!

This Zhou Celestial Being was quite special; it is said that in past years, after breaking through Innate, he renamed himself “Zhou Xiantian.”

Afterward, he changed his name with every realm advancement—Grandmaster Zhou, Saint Zhou Wu, until he became Zhou Celestial Being!

Receiving Lu Jinfeng’s gaze, Zhou Celestial Being’s voice was deep: “After the task concludes, as the leading mentor, I will evaluate you all.”

“As of now.”

“I will give you zero marks.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinfeng’s expression darkened, but he quickly responded: “Teacher Zhou, Hu Fei he…”

“He’s fine, but severely injured, unable to move for the time being.”

“Your three-member team is down to just you who can execute the mission.”

Hearing this, Lu Jinfeng’s face grew even darker, and he bowed his head: “We’ve shamed the Academy.”

“Whether it’s shameful or not, it doesn’t matter.”

Zhou Celestial Being’s tone was calm: “I only hope that through this incident, you all can learn a lesson.”

“I understand.”

Lu Jinfeng’s tone lowered further: “If we had gone directly to the Patrol Bureau, none of this would have happened.”

“It seems you do not understand.”

Zhou Celestial Being shook his head, not withholding his words as the mentor: “If the three of you had turned back immediately to notify the Patrol Bureau when An Ning first sensed something was amiss, I would have given you the highest marks.”

“But you did not.”

“In fact, investigating further wasn’t the issue, but your mistake was in never considering if you’d have the ability to deal with unexpected changes.”

“Having the desire to take action isn’t wrong.”

“But doing so without the adequate ability to bear the consequences is where the problem lies.”

Having said this, he waved his hand.

“Your mission is to assist the Patrol Bureau in investigating and clearing the Evil God stronghold.”

“Now, only you remain from the three-member team.”

“Go to the Patrol Bureau.”

“You’re here to execute a mission, not for a vacation.”

In the next instant.

Lu Jinfeng’s figure disappeared from there.

The familiar surroundings of the hospital returned. Through the window, Lu Jinfeng looked at the resting An Ning inside, then began conversing with the Patrol Team members beside him.

At the same time.

Zhou Celestial Being stood in place, the sea beneath his feet surging with waves, as if standing within a peculiar space.

Just at this moment… A hint of ink color entered this area.

The ink colored figure traced a humanoid shape, armored and armed with a blade—it was Gu Huang!

Gu Huang’s expression was calm, looking at Zhou Celestial Being: “As a team mentor, actively participating in the Academy mission isn’t in line with the rules, is it?”

“There’s no other way.”

Zhou Celestial Being sighed lightly: “The students under my charge are too disappointing. It should have been an opportunity for merit, yet it turned out like this. I really couldn’t bear it. Anyway, our Time Law already lost enough face this time, this wouldn’t make it any worse.”

“Whether to act or not, it ended up being the worst outcome.”

“But Wuyuan Academy…”

His tone shifted, looking at Gu Huang: “Qin Jin.”

He named him, expressing admiration: “Where does such a promising talent come from? Truly astonishing, really.”

“This Academy mission, it seems Wuyuan is destined to claim the top prize.”

“What a pity…”

He gazed at Gu Huang: “I thought I could fight alongside [Ink Blade] this time, witnessing [Ink Blade]’s first move after breaking through to the Celestial Human Realm.”

“Now looking at it, it’s unlikely to happen.”

“There’s nothing to pity.”

Gu Huang’s voice was cool, standing there with her blade.

“The setup of the Evil God Sect has not taken effect, which is a good thing.”

Her figure turned back into ink color, disappearing from the spot, leaving only one last sentence behind.

“If you really want to see me make a move, Zhou Celestial Being, you can come and be the opponent after the event concludes.”

The ink color faded away.

Zhou Celestial Being stood in place.

“Ink Blade · Gu Huang.”

“Tsk tsk.”

“Young and indeed formidable.”

In the low murmurs, he also disappeared from the spot.

Time Law, Martial Abyss, the leading teachers this time were all Celestial Beings!

This was due to the nature of the mission.

There is no trivial Evil God incident.

With traces of the Evil God Sect detected in Cold Plum City, reported up, the three major academies set this location as the academy mission site, how could they only send students?

Involving Evil God-related incidents, there is no negligence. The Academy indeed uses this opportunity to train students, but at the same time, on an implicit level, extensive preparations were made on all fronts to ensure no accidents occurred.

…

In the sky, the Star Shuttle sped by.

Upon arriving at a certain area in Cold Plum City, the Star Shuttle slowly descended, landing on the ground.

This place was far from the explosion site, it was nighttime, still calm, with no abnormalities visible.

Qin Jin nodded in acknowledgement to Yan Yan, stepped off the Star Shuttle, set foot on the ground, and proceeded alone towards the first suspicious location identified in the Patrol Bureau’s analysis results.

On the way forward.

He restrained his aura and concealed his whereabouts.

Meanwhile, within the Spirit Ruins, a singular Wind Spiritual Power surged out, surrounding him, forming a hidden barrier around his body.

In his Spiritual Perception, at this moment, he had approximately transformed into a gust of wind.
