If this sound recorder were passed to their mentors, their future would be gone.
"What do you want!?" They could only yield to her and try to negotiate.
Gu Xijiu sighed, "It is not easy for everyone to be here, why would we want to make things difficult for each other? I am alone and helpless at this place and don’t even have a friend. I will get bullied easily by others…"
The two men immediately understood. After a few bargains and discussions, both of them agreed to listen to her and help as long as they did not need to violate the rules of the Tianju Hall. In simple words, both of them would be her informants and helpers…
Gu Xijiu was isolated at this place. Her skills had not improved yet. If she wanted to stay here for long, she needed to have her friends and supports to help her to get through these phases.
It had a lot of requirements to be cool. It was just not a good idea to act cool if her ability and network were weak.
The two men finally left.
Gu Xijiu was relieved. Fortunately, she had the foresight to do preparations beforehand, or else she would have to sleep on a hard rock under the rain tonight!
She rolled over on the bed and put her head on the warm pillow. It felt good to sleep on the bed!
The rain was still pouring outside.
The two men were flying fast in the rain, and they were preparing their speech to report to their mentor based on Gu Xijiu’s guidance. Suddenly, there was a white shadow flashed in front of them and blocked their way.
The two men were startled. They asked, "Who are you?"
The man wore white clothes and was also wearing a white hat with a thin curtain covering his face. He was dressed in white from head to toe, and he did not expose his face or hair.
Although the rain was pouring heavily, the white man did not get wet at all. The rain fell on his hat and split into two just as though a rain shield covered him.
The two men almost got a heart attack when they saw such a person on a rainy night.
"Who are you?"
"What do you want from us?"
These were the last sentences said by the two men, because the next moment, the white man immediately flew over with red lightning bolt in his palm and killed them.
...
The noise awakened Gu Xijiu.
Just when she sat up, she heard a banging sound on the door outside.
She frowned and felt uneasy in her heart. She opened the door and her
uneasiness had been confirmed.
There were two students killed, and their bodies were found nearby her house. The way they died was very terrifying. They were cut into two by something that was very sharp.
This morning when someone passed by, they saw the corpses, and they were shocked. They immediately reported to their mentors and very soon the news had spread across the Tianju Hall.
Gu Canmo was very angry. He personally brought the coroner who was specialized in autopsy, and then they found that the way the two men died was very special. They were not killed by a blade or sword but two pieces of sharp shells.
It was very easy to suspect Gu Xijiu as she was the only one in the Tianju Hall who owned a big mussel. This mussel could cut and eat people…
Gu Canmo immediately sent people to arrest Gu Xijiu, and of course, the big mussel who caused the "trouble."
When Gu Xijiu opened her door, she was caught by the four well-trained students sent by Gu Canmo.
There were many talents in the Tianju Hall. These people did not like fame and glory but only concentrated on improving their martial arts and spiritual power. Although they were not famous, they had very amazing abilities.
The Lord established the Tianju Hall. Therefore, it had the best resources for these people to train and improve. Eventually, they stay on in the Tianju Hall to be mentors, coroners or discipline gurus who manage the students who break the rules. Once these discipline gurus were involved, no one could escape from their hands.
Before Gu Xijiu could react, she had been pummelled on the floor. When the big mussel and Wind Caller saw something was not right, they immediately rushed forward and wanted to save their master. However, they were also caught by the discipline gurus. Even Lu Wu was put into a cage that was specially designed to capture majestic beings.
The big mussel finally understood Gu Xijiu's concerns. It was a place full of masters. Its abilities should allow it to comfortably deal with people with level five or six of spiritual power, but it could do nothing when it met people with level eight or nine of spiritual power. Even if these people wanted to stew it into soup, there was nothing it could do to escape.
The coroners quickly checked the shell of the big mussel. They were able to collect the hair and skin tissues of the two men who were killed last night.
There was a lady among the discipline gurus, and she inspected Gu Xijiu. In Gu Xijiu’s storage bag, she found the sound recorder spell that Gu Xijiu used to record the cursing of the two men. Thus, the murder weapon and a motive to kill were identified.
All the evidence were extremely detrimental to Gu Xijiu. When she was brought to the punishment hall, she could not debate when the discipline gurus showed all the evidence in front of her.
She knew that she had fallen into a well-planned trap. She looked up at Gu Canmo and tried to calm down. She asked, "Headmaster Gu, I admit that these two men came to my house and tried to attack me and destroy my house. Before they came, I sensed something, and I asked the big mussel to hide outside my house. It successfully stopped them from ruining my house but to stop them from coming again; I purposely recorded their curses to threaten them so that they won't come and attack me again. They had agreed to the deal, so I had released them to leave. They were no longer threats to me but instead are beneficial. Why would I ask the big mussel to kill them? I believe this is a trap set to frame me. I would appreciate it if Headmaster Gu would investigate the case to prove my innocence."
Headmaster Gu looked like a man who was in his thirties. In actuality, he was older than Long Siye and Di Fuyi. No one on the continent actually knew his age because he was here since the Tianju Hall was built.
He looked like a person who was upright and of little words. Perhaps, he had encountered some bad experiences at a young age. He hated people who received unworthy benefits through connections. Although he was not able to rule the world, he was the one who could make decisions in the Tianju Hall.
