“Ah!”
A burst of laughter from a child and a scream from a certain bad teacher echoed through the quiet suburban path.
Clearly.
Although Master Fei possessed the ability to turn poison into a ninth-grade substance, even a Grandmaster might be caught off guard by him.
But the Blind One was not in this category!
He, like Chu Yuan, was immune to all poisons and a natural counter to Master Fei.
On the other hand, Master Fei!
Essentially, he was still a seventh-grade, not even as good as Chu Yuan. Being challenged by the Blind One, the outcome was predictable.
Soon!
Those screams rang throughout the entire graveyard.
Obviously!
Chu Yuan had no idea that the Blind One had turned around and challenged Master Fei.
But no matter what.
This beating Master Fei received was a disaster that came out of nowhere!
Such a result was beyond the expectations of Chu Yuan, the original instigator.
On the other side!
Far away, in the west of Kyoto City, stood a square, somewhat gloomy and majestic building.
Master Fei’s letter was delivered here!
This was the Kyoto Inspection Institute!
The current Great Qing Dynasty implemented a system of three institutions and six departments.
Three institutions!
The Inspection Institute, the Censorate, and the Military Secret Council, upgraded from the military department.
Among these three institutions, the most powerful…
Was the Inspection Institute!
The reason for this was that since its establishment, the Inspection Institute had possessed independent investigation and arrest powers.
It even could be granted the power of judgment!
Moreover, in the Qing Kingdom, no other organization had the power to supervise it.
In a sense!
The Inspection Institute was more like a wild beast without a rein. As for who was going to hold the reins of this beast?
Naturally, it was the emperor!
Therefore!
In the eyes of many officials in Kyoto, the Inspection Institute was not a beast, but a treacherous and despicable wild dog.
They never knew when they might be bitten!
Regarding such an organization!
Everyone in Kyoto tended to avoid it, unwilling to have anything to do with it.
…
…
In a secret room of the Inspection Institute!
A middle-aged man with a thin face and a beardless complexion sat in a large wheelchair.
You could see——
A soft blanket covered the middle-aged man’s legs.
His gaze was deep, lost in thought.
You know!
Any normal person would like to live under the sun, but he was different. He preferred to stay in this dark, sunless place.
In fact!
All of his living quarters, his offices, were covered with thick black cloth, not allowing a ray of sunlight to penetrate.
Those who knew him understood…
The reason for this!
Was because this middle-aged man had experienced some changes many years ago. From then on, he not only lost both legs, but he also became sensitive to light.
“Director!”
A shadowy figure, like a ghost, suddenly appeared, his expression indifferent, and he reported to the middle-aged man:
“The chief of the third division, Master Fei, sent a letter from Nanhai County!”
“Oh?”
The middle-aged man, lost in thought, raised his dark eyes upon hearing this.
His cold pupils, for the first time, showed a hint of something unusual.
Indeed!
This middle-aged man was the king of the night of the Great Qing Dynasty, the director of the Inspection Institute, Chen Ping Ping.
“News about Ye Xiao?”
Chen Ping Ping raised his eyebrows slightly and asked softly.
Clearly!
This was his greatest concern.
“Replying to the Director!” The shadow nodded and said, “Master Fei said he has become Ye Xiao’s teacher!”
Pausing, he continued to report:
“Also, the letter mentions a young man named Chu Yuan.”
Upon hearing this!
Chen Ping Ping didn't ask any more questions, but simply stretched out his hand, signaling the shadow to hand him the letter.
After a while.
Chen Ping Ping finished reading Master Fei’s letter.
“An eighteen-year-old seventh-grade who can fight a ninth-grade, even the Blind One says he is very skilled?”
Muttering softly!
His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the wheelchair.
“Interesting young man!”
Finally, Chen Ping Ping calmly ordered: “Go and check it out!”
“Yes!”
The shadow took the order, turned around, and left.
…
…
Ye Manor, Nanhai County!
Amidst laughter and joy, Chu Yuan completed his lecture for the day.
[Lecture Completion]
[Evaluation: A]
[Reward: Life Water]
“My luck is pretty good today.” Chu Yuan saw the reward, Life Water, and secretly nodded.
This Life Water was no ordinary thing!
It was a very advanced life-saving remedy, originating from the Starry Sky World. It could regenerate severed limbs and bring people back to life.
Moreover!
Life Water could not only treat external injuries, but also internal diseases.
It was very powerful in terms of healing!
With Life Water, Chu Yuan was no longer afraid of anyone being secretly assassinated around him.
After all!
Although he had the Dog Talisman, this thing could only keep the holder eternally young and avoid death, prolonging life.
Human nature!
It’s hard to explain, it’s hard to define. Chu Yuan didn’t want to test it, nor was he interested in verifying it.
Therefore!
For him, the Dog Talisman could only be in his own hands, it was impossible to show off in front of others!
Life Water was different.
It was useless to him anyway, giving it to anyone wouldn't affect him. It could all be attributed to the Temple.
Like Chen Ping Ping!
Just a tube of Life Water would immediately grow his legs back.
Of course!
Chu Yuan wouldn't do such a thing.
After all!
He had no connection with the director of the Inspection Institute. He had no reason to meddle in other people's business.
“It’s really unthinkable…”
“It can actually reward treasures from the Starry Sky World.”
Chu Yuan thought to himself.
What if one day it rewards me with a spaceship, can I go on a Wandering Earth trip and experience the life of an interstellar traveler?!
He smiled!
Chu Yuan threw these frivolous thoughts out of his mind.
…
A few moments later!
Chu Yuan's class ended, and Master Fei rushed over from outside Ye Manor.
But he looked rather miserable!
He had a bruised and swollen face, looking even worse than the last time he was blasted in the head by Ye Xiao. Even Chu Yuan could sense that his current aura was unstable.
Chu Yuan, who didn't understand what was going on at the moment!
Was also surprised and said: “Old Fei, how come you are injured so badly?”
“Don’t mention it, the Fifth Lord, I don’t know what’s wrong with him!”
“He insisted on challenging me to a duel!”
Master Fei complained, “He didn't explain why, he just picked up an iron bar and attacked me.”
“Can I beat him?”
He muttered to himself.
This Fifth Lord must be crazy, he can’t even see! He’s still a Grandmaster, can’t he tell I’m just a seventh-grade?
Hearing this!
Chu Yuan was speechless on the side.
He really didn’t expect that the Blind One would actually go and fight Master Fei.
