278 Chapter 277 Revealed

"Patriarch, we are there."

While jumping off the carriage, the coachman respectfully reminded, putting down the special stepping platform, then bowed, bent, and waited in silence.

"Hmm." Ning Fengzhi lightly responded, opening the carriage door and stepping out, behind him, Ning Rongrong and Sword Douluo followed one after the other.

Just as their feet landed, not far away, Xue Qinghe approached in large strides, bowing slightly and saluting, "Greetings, Master, greetings, Elder Chen." After saying that, he turned his head to look at Ning Rongrong, who was now on Ning Fengzhi's side, and smiled, "Little sister, it's been a long time."

"Greetings, Brother Qinghe." Ning Rongrong politely bowed back.

Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly, "Alright, Qinghe, there's no need to be formal, let's go up together."

"Yes." Xue Qinghe nodded and followed on the other side of Ning Fengzhi, walking towards the gate of Skywalker Academy.

As they walked, on one side, Ning Rongrong looked back at the carriages that kept arriving at the bottom of the steps, and lowered her voice as she inquired, "Brother Qinghe, do you know what exactly happened? Why would the Skywalker Academy suddenly send out invitations to gather so many forces to come?"

"Little Sister, I don't know about this matter either." Xue Qinghe shook his head slightly, "Father and I also received the invitation out of the blue yesterday, and the person who came did not state the purpose of this gathering, so I'm also in a hurry for today's trip."

Ning Rongrong was instantly somewhat puzzled at those words, her brows furrowing slightly, "That's odd."

Ning Fengzhi's face remained warm as he smiled, "Since we came, we should be able to find out exactly what the reason is, so you'll find out later."

"Hmm." Ning Rongrong nodded, and her expression eased.

Not long after, several people walked through the gates, and after presenting their invitations, they were led by a special person to a front seat on the side of the plaza.

About two-quarters of an hour later, the VIP seats on both sides of the square were all seated, and as far as the eye could see, all the forces of Heaven Dou City could be seen, including the Bishop of the Martial Spirit Hall, Salas, who was seated in the first place directly opposite, as well as the senior management of each of the Senior Spirit Master Academies within Heaven Dou City's sub-region.

In the centre of the square, there were a neatly arranged crowd of instructors and students from the Skywalker Academy, and at the forefront were Shui Chaozong, Bai Xue, and other senior executives.

Ta-ta-ta, while the crowd was discussing, a group of people slowly walked out of the gate of the towering building directly in front of the square.

At the lead was a handsome young man with dark grey hair, wearing grey armour with emerald gemstones embedded in his chest, revealing a hint of evil in his dark grey pupils.

On the side of the young man was Lin Manshan, who was wearing black leather armour and a mask.

Then on the two sides, were Yang Wudi and Niu Gao who were following the pace closely on the left and right.

'This young man, is Dugu Bo?' Looking at the appearance of the youth at the lead, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but be surprised as amazement flashed through his eyes, from the standing position, it could be seen that the line was led by a grey-haired youth, which was enough to reflect the status, coupled with those few similar facial features.

He had to suspect that the identity of the person leading the group was none other than Dugu Bo.

'But, how did Dugu Bo become so young?' Inwardly, he was instantly puzzled.

The ones who were equally puzzled were Ning Rongrong and Sword Douluo, who were sitting next to him, and even the many students of the Skywalker Academy looked confused.

"Who is this handsome guy? Why is he standing at the very front?" A female student voiced a low inquiry.

Then they saw Lin Manshan and his group walk up to the front of the steps and stand, and the lead figure, Dugu Bo, seemed to be able to see what the crowd was thinking and spoke with a straight face, "No need to be sceptical, this throne is the dean of this Skywalker Academy, Dugu Bo."

"!!! This is the dean?" The crowd of students under the stage first revealed shocked and incredulous expressions, the other power guests around them also suddenly erupted in the clamour, their gazes looking up and down, "How did Dugu Bo become so young?"

Their minds were full of questions.   

They all knew about Dugu Bo's closed-door retreat announcement some time ago, but even with the spirit power breakthrough, the change wouldn't be this big, would it?

"I've invited all of you here today only to announce something." Dugu Bo's voice came again.

Immediately afterwards, they saw Dugu Bo flip his hand, and several image retention stones appeared in his hand and gradually rose into the sky.

Not long after, more than ten meters above the square, a single image flashed up in a neat arrangement, and the faces of the crowd changed drastically.

"Eight Spider Spear, Clear Sky Hammer, this is Tang San?!" Although his appearance had changed drastically, his spirit bone and martial soul couldn't be faked, and the crowd still recognized the main character in the images at first, and the more they looked, the more they felt their scalps numb. Especially after hearing what Tang San murmured in a low voice after devouring a spirit beast and complaining that devouring spirit beasts wasn't as fast as devouring evil spirit masters in the Killing City.

Although they hadn't heard of the Killing City, they could understand the word spirit master.

Then they carefully compared the mouth shape, and the guess in their mind was instantly confirmed, there was no mistake, what Tang San mentioned was truly about devouring spirit masters.

'Tang San has actually been to the Killing City, no wonder there's been no news of him these past few years. Moreover, he actually cultivated in there by devouring spirit masters.' Even Ning Fengzhi couldn't hide the shock in his eyes at this moment.

Although he didn't know through what means Dugu Bo had tracked and recorded all of this with an image-retaining stone, there was no doubt that Tang San devouring spirit beasts and spirit masters to cultivate had become a fact.

Devouring spirit beasts is fine, devouring spirit masters will certainly get him labelled as an evil spirit master, and anyone who stains their hand in this muddy water to refute it will be unlucky.

'I should have realized this at the beginning' He glanced at Lin Manshan, a trace of remorse could not help but rise in his heart.

Between his thoughts, the picture continued, under Tang San's active search, one spirit beast after another fell, and Ning Fengzhi's face was also becoming more and more gloomy. Beside him, Ning Rongrong, who hadn't yet ventured out into the continent, also looked more and more pale.

Regarding Tang San's cruel killing methods, inwardly, she felt nothing but shivers and was even slightly nauseated.

'I didn't expect Tang San to become an evil spirit master, such a good talent, but it was wasted.' On the other side, Sword Douluo also could not help but feel a little saddened. Eager for quick success, this mentality is bound to have a defect, it is not a good thing for the spirit master to chase the peak of the realm so hastily.

In the middle of the lamentation, the picture in the air suddenly switched, and two giant spirit beasts appeared.

'This is! Hundred thousand-year-old spirit beasts; and it's still a Titan Giant Ape and a Sky Azure Bull Python.' His expression suddenly changed.

At the same time, the crowd in the venue erupted in an uproar.

"Tang San actually intersected with a hundred thousand-year-old spirit beasts? This is clearly a rush to death!" As their eyes stared, the scene continued, Tang San and Xiao Wu embraced each other, and then the two of them walked hand in hand to a vacant lot not far away to talk. Xiao Wu's 100,000-year-old spirit beast identity was also revealed as the conversation went on.

'Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year-old spirit beast!' Ning Rongrong instantly covered her lips with her small hands, with an incredulous expression.

In a moment, her expression abruptly changed, 'The Clear Sky Clan is finished.' This thought suddenly rose in her mind.

Within the screen, Tang San was talking to Xiao Wu about his own experiences when he was in Clear Sky Clan. For one year, Tang San stayed in the Clear Sky Clan for an entire year. This showed that the Clear Sky Clan had already re-accepted Tang San into the clan. Even more, the Clear Sky Clan might know everything about Tang San. Including devouring spirit masters and spirit beasts for the sake of cultivation, as well as his interactions with the 100,000-year-old spirit beasts.

From this, thinking deeper, the Clear Sky Clan had already cooperated with the Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts. After all, Tang San was born to a hundred thousand-year-old spirit beast, and there was a bloodline connection linking them together.

The truth may not be exactly like this, but it doesn't prevent people from thinking so. And this, this was already enough to push the Clear Sky Clan into the depths of an abyss. Secretly training evil spirit masters and colluding with the spirit beast clan, no matter which one of these presented, it would be a capital offence.

"This," Beside her, Ning Fengzhi's face also suddenly changed, Dugu Bo's thoughts, he understood. And right at this moment, Dugu Bo's voice was heard once again.
