Capítulo 82: Day 21-24-Exposure Part 2
.
The Camp-
.
The rebels that did attack were on the ground in severed pieces or just burned to crisps. The students did ok under the orders of Liang Yu and Liang Jian. Linlin keeping the others in control well. The memories helping the two shine. Those who needed to die maneuvered well enough into the crossfire.
"Everything is taken care of here, just need to wait to leave." Ye Xinge dropped the ice sculpture for all to see. Thinking he should have left the clothes on the body. 'An Xueyun will jus thave to testify it was him and so will Xia Yuning.'
"Just froze him huh?" Xia Yuning thought it odd as she caught her breath. "That tattoo looks familiar. Do you know what it is?"
"Of course I do." Ye Xinghe taunted. He wagged his finger at the two that glowed with qi. "Your sperm donor knows it, as well as yours." He gave a smile to An Xueyun and Xia Yuning. "But they are not that great of people to talk to. But assholes from what I know."
*Woom!* Qi circled around Ye Xinghe. He forgot about the Life Heart Spirit Jade that Lin Hong had on his person. The fresh revitalizing power was more than enough to push his Dragon Martial Arts. The Flame Vortex churning away pleasantly.
"I am all a tingle." Frost Air circled around his body pleasantly.
Three robed figures landed. Some were impressed, others just grinned knowingly. They were meant to be intimidating but could be killed if ganged up on. If no one lived, who would report back they died by the students?
"Nice clothes, about as stupid as the clothing you wore before." Ye Xinghe chuckled under his breath. Xia Yuning glaring as she could tell those close to him and Liang Yu did not take those who arrived seriously at all. "The face-covering looks really nice. Brings back a bad memory."
"Princess, it is well you are ok." The only one with a hat said. Eyes surveying the area but not impressed overall. Arrogance can get you killed. Especially when you thought everyone present was not worth your notice. "Do you know where the ring leader is located?"
"Right there." Xia Yuning pointed at the ice sculpture of Lin Hong. Several others nodding it was true.
"He is a member of the Divine Sea Pavillion and the chief infiltrator of the students that sought to kill members of Nobles and Aristocrats." Liang Yu said cooly. The three Divine Guardians visibly tremored at the information. "The Academy will of course confirm everything later, but for now we should be safe."
"If they were involved, then odds are more students could be involved." One of the guards said. "We should detain the lot of them."
Making a move was the dumbest thing he could do. Every student raised their weapons and displayed a technique ready to fight back. They did not trust the members of the North Lord's Mansion as well as not trusting the Teachers still.
Lin Yi stepped forward amongst the teacher to exert his authority.
"We can't allow that. The Academy will look into the matter, it would be wise to not overstep." Flexing his cultivation, he was not the only teacher to do so. "Any hostile action, we will take as a sign of suppression from teh North Lord's Mansion!"
"Guards... let them go!" Xia Yuning ordered. "You will not escape alive!"
*Bzzt!* Liang Yu moved as fast as lightning holding a Flame Blade to the neck of one. Had on the shoulder sending a current through the body in every key point.
*Crck!* Ye Xinghe hed his hand out with frost gathered around it. The other Divine Guardian was almost covered head to toe in ice. With each breath Yinghe took, more ice formed thicker on the Dragon Martial artist.
"Princess, when your father sent us here, he gave us explicit orders that we must apprehend the culprit!" The lead guard said while building his qi up. Seeing his partners disabled did not bold well at all.
"You refuse to listen to me?" Xia Yuning warned. "You were not here! You have know idea what we went through! So many students died because of this treachery!"
"Sorry princess, we dare not disobey the master's orders!" He was about to make a move but the frozen guard was completely encased in ice. It would only be a matter of time before he died. "You dare kill a member of the North Lord's Mansion!?"
"Why not? I kill the son of one of its generals." He gestured to Lin Hong. "The son of Lin Kuan who sought to kill Xia Yuning and several nobles, yet you care about this.. weakling. You might be a rebel sympathizer as well."
Tightening his hand, the ice sculpture of the Divine Guard started to shrink. Inside, blood could be seen. He would crush him to death to make sure they turned compliant.
"I am starting to think that to. They might have come to kill everyone to strengthen the Divine Sea Pavillion cause. Teacher Lin Yi, we can not let them take out any more students." Liang Yu's eyes flared as moved the Flame Blade a little across his captive's neck. "It might be best to kill them prudently and ask for understanding later."
"Heat that imposter? You can not possibly be Shen Sheng, you are to weak and stupid." Ye Xinghe wanted to see how many members of the North Lord's Mansion would come at him in the future or the Divine Sea Pavillion. 'Liang Yu will have to deal with Dark Moon Family growth while I make the Azure Feather Family something, it will be really difficult though.'
"You dare to get in the way of the North Guardian Lord's arrest decree, you must be tired of living!" Shen Sheng said outraged. The fact 4th Heavenly Realm cultivators were able to subdue easily was just mind-boggling. "It best for you to stand down!"
"You need to stand down!" Xia Yuning said in an almost rage. Seeing Shen Sheng acting like this, she realized her authority meant nothing compared to her father's. The sense of powerlessness pissing her off. An Xueyun knew that look really well. "I suggest you stand down before you lose your lives!"
*Sching!* The Moon Wheel, the pink crescent weapon shining as rays of sunlight came down. Pointing the weapon at the members who were supposed to protect her, felt liberating in a way.
"This is an Academy Affair, you are conspiring in what is going on! I am in agreement as my fellow students that you are nothing but imposters!" Xia Yuning's courage caused the others students to finally side with her. "As the disciple of the Principal, I will make sure to hold you accountable!"
Running out of time, Shen Sheng raised his hands up in surrender. Zhao Ning and Ying Lu sealed his Dantian as Lin Yi tied him up.
Reluctantly, the other Divine Guardians were freed and no longer held captive. Even freeing the popsicle up to the head to make sure he lived a little longer.
Vice-Principal Xu and a few others arrived on scene. The explanation and overstepping of the North Lord Mansion were not dismissed easily. Especially with Teacher Xu having broken through. He was not going to let them endanger Liang Yu, Ye Xinghe, or any of the surviving students.
.
Aftermath-
.
Returning back to the Academy, the students were quiet. Already tired from everything, the emotional strain alone would claim the moment they made back to the confines of the housing.
Ye Xinghe, Zhao Ning, Ying Lu, Mo Yo, Techlis, and a few students were sitting on one side.
Liang Yu, Liang Jian, Linlin, An Xueyun, Wu Long, and the other Dark Moon members were on the other side.
Old Xu came in with Xia Yuning in regards to what happened. Having killed a teacher before everything was figured almost had Ye Xinghe expelled. But to many students and teachers spoke on his behalf. A letter was delivered to Linlin who beamed happily.
The Zhao family would not offend the Dark Moon Family over a servant. It was quite clear she was one of Liang Yu's people and someone Liang Jian was personally involved with. It was a marriage certificate as the two refused to wait and were going to do it right this time off the bat.
"Haa, the North lord mansion was quite embarrassed over the situation and Xia Yuning has quite a mouth on her when riled up." Old Xu sat in a chair looking at those gatehred. A large bowl made in the floor full of demon beast blood churning. "To think you had it in you tell yell at your father's people like that."
"He is a butt head, so.. it is only worth so much to hold back from just tearing into him." Xia Yuning was not going to miss the chance to learn more about her mother's situation. Even if it meant heartbreak. "Ye Xinghe has to finish telling me a story."
"Haa, right." Having conversed with Liang Yu a little on the matter and finding out how to transfer memories safely, he would just go that method. Having killed so many soldiers that knew the situation it was all about finding a good view and transferring it over. 'So much harder than just transferring techniques, ah well.'
"A house arrest for a week is the least I could get it to." Old Xu did not care what was going on there, he would find out later. "Hopefully you all are not disappointed in the Academy overall. So many students are planning to leave."
"That works well for me, I was wanting to work on some stuff anyway." Xinghe rubbed he hands as the Frost Air Body technique kept exuding energy. Techlis kept licking his hands to get the vapor. "Need to dive into my techniques more. So much to figure out."
"So much to teach to." Zhao Ning had so many questions that he would be busy the next week anyway. Ying Lu needing the help just as much. "But we need to make sure we don't lag behind, right?"
Ying Lu nodded quickly. She was wanting to learn more offensive techniques. Old Xu passed some insights onto all of them before it got to late. Liang Yu threw a piece of Snow Essence mixed with the memories to the man.
"Here, make sure you use it all up." Liang Yu passed over some of the things he recovered during the trials to the others for later. "Keep it to yourself and do not share it with anyone."
"With this, it won't take long for me to reach the 6th Heavenly Layer!" Liang Jian said excitied. "But what about you?" He looked to Linlin who grinned holding a bag.
"Took out some rebels and made sure to loot them accordingly." She had a shit eating grin on her face. "We can just make uo for it after. Well, once your body improves. I have more physical strength than you." She teased.
"We have something for that shortcoming." Ye Xinghe stated. His hands-on the formation that churned the blood bowl.
"I have something that I am going to try that will be seriously crazy has only a small chance at killing anyone of course. Just more painful that way." Liang Yu took out some vortex glass and threw it inside. Then some more material such as the Star Stones and herbs picked during the trial.
"Test what?" Liang Jian was curious as his cousin started taking out demonic beasts. He cut them open letting the blood pool onto the ground. Liang Yu then placed a few Star Stones in key locations. Oddly enough, all the stones had traces of blood on them. So they were not recovered in a nice way. "That is a lot of blood..."
Liang Yu pulled out more beasts and bled them out. Once done he did not dispose of them at all. The bodies were scooped up then tossed into the Flame Vortex Core, nothing would be wasted. That was a given.
"So, the blood in here will help provide for your body to restore. The herbs will put a higher resistance to toxins, the glass full of two types of fire, frost violently moving, lightning energy will provide nourishment for your soul, and we will make sure you live of course."
"Star Energy will heal you as well, so go on and jump in." Of course they were weary. Zhao Ning was the first to enter, followed by Xia Yuning. Seeing them perfectly fine, the others entered. "Time to begin!"
Liang Yu started to use his Metal Seed. The very first groans and moans vanishing. The sound was eaten as it built up. The room lit up entirely as a Formation activated then another and another. Layers of different methods that made the body better.
As well as reforging the Meridians to be stronger. Old Xu was aware of some of the rune markings and was shocked his student knew how to complete them. A few that belong to the Star Pillar was visible to the observer.
Eyes rolled over in agonizing pain, the bodies of those Connect to them both exploded. The Flame Vortex Cores spinning with power to help refine them faster. Stronger, faster, and smarter. Imparting techniques to them, it would be up to each of them to develop it better.
Learning the advanced techniques of the Flame, Dragon, and Star Martial artists helped push through the pain coursing through their souls. The little nugget of the laws that were devlop before were also instilled.
"Such power." Old Xu could feel the heavy pure qi coming from the two. The Flame Vortex Core power was magnified with the power of the to Champions who were originally one. "Can't fall behind."
*Ripple!* Taking in the power from the glass, the flood of memories and knowledge causing him to go through several emotions. Seeing how important Liang Yu was to him the tip of the iceberg. The chance to make the Academy better burning in the man's mind.
As the bodies reformed, Liang Yu placed blankets over them. Each set to the side to recover. THe qi was still moving across their bodies.
Ye Xinghe was going through a breakthrough of his own. The pain and suffering inflicted by the refining process was the last bit needed to push into the 5th Heavenly Layer. The immediate surrounding almost froze from the outburst.
"Ohh!" Techlis was giddy in joy. Luckily, the other Frost Birds were released to help. Ye Xinghe was buried under feathers as they fed on the Frost Air Body. "Yummy yummy!" Liang Yu cocked an eyebrow stifling his laughter.
"At least they are not trying to eat him."
