240: Chapter 240 Chaos Begins_1 240: Chapter 240 Chaos Begins_1 “Well, the competition just got a lot more intense, huh~”
“You have to work hard~ it would be troubleso if you were eliminated~”
Seeing Feng Yuan smirking at him, Qi Chen said irritably,
“If I get eliminated, you’ll be competing alone, but Teacher Yan knows us inside and out.”
Rembering that Teacher Yan had also participated with them in the Yognot incident, Feng Yuan scratched his head and said,
“Forgot about that.”
“Hey?
Now?”
After hanging up the phone, on his way to have dinner with Feng Yuan, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan curiously and asked,
“What’s up?”
“A colleague brought the officially confird competition process and so other competition docunts.
Do you want to co with ?”
“Colleague?”
Qi Chen was first confused, then suddenly rembered that Feng Yuan was supposed to work at the special service team over the weekend.
He fell silent for a mont before asking,
“Wouldn’t that be a problem?”
“Shouldn’t be, it seems like they’re going to announce it officially tomorrow.
She’s just giving it to ahead of ti.”
Arriving at the school gate and seeing Ye Hanlei already waiting there, Feng Yuan walked up with a smile and said,
“Thanks for the trouble~ But if it’s going to be announced tomorrow, was there really a need to rush over?”
Handing over the docunt bag to Feng Yuan, Ye Hanlei leaned on the car door and said,
“It’s not just that, there are so other details inside, like the locations of the competition.
Those things won’t be officially publicized tomorrow.”
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said with so confusion,
“Won’t you get into trouble for this?
It doesn’t make much difference to whether I have these materials or not.”
Giving Feng Yuan a sideways glance, Ye Hanlei said crossly,
“I’m well aware of your abilities.
These docunts are from Elder Li; he wants to make sure that you don’t bring in Divine Beasts like Agunas.”
“Eh…
I wouldn’t go that far, right?”
“If you’re taking people with you to compete, it’s not so certain.
I believe that for their sake, you would definitely seek the help of those Divine Beasts.”
Seeing Ye Hanlei’s gaze drifting his way, Qi Chen sighed and looked at Feng Yuan, who nodded in acknowledgent and admitted,
“Indeed, if their performance isn’t too ideal, perhaps the resting White Wolf Deity from Lorraine Tower might take a stroll around the arena.”
“Are you serious?”
Seeing Qi Chen’s skeptical look, Feng Yuan smiled and said,
“Of course~ Besides, isn’t it normal for them to appear anywhere while resting?”
“Coming back to rest?”
Ye Hanlei stared at Feng Yuan, who apparently didn’t plan to explain further.
Shaking her head, she said,
“You better not do that, with Elder Li personally presiding, it’s already sensational enough.
If Divine Beasts show up at the arena too, I fear the situation will beco uncontrollable.”
“Like anyone can control where Divine Beasts go to have fun.
Besides, maybe the White Wolf Deity will grace them with a blessing or a secret technique if it takes a fancy to them at the arena~”
“If that happens, we’ll call off the competition.
Do you think we could still maintain order in the match then?”
After hearing Feng Yuan’s remarks, Ye Hanlei said disapprovingly.
After scratching his head and sharing a laugh, Feng Yuan chatted for a while with her before Ye Hanlei turned to her car and said as she was getting in,
“Those docunts aren’t for you to spread around.
Just let your teammates have a look, and don’t leak them.
Also, no bringing Divine Beasts to the arena!”
Watching the police car drive away, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly and said,
“You’ve only been there a few days and you’ve already given yourself away?”
“Given away what?”
“Your true nature, man.
You’ve only been there a few days, and they already know you’d pull sothing like this…”
“Pfft, you really think they wouldn’t study my records?
I haven’t hidden anything; they probably guessed what I’d do ages ago.”
The two talked as they walked towards the school cafeteria, and just when they were about to reach it, Orlina approached Feng Yuan and said,
“Do you have a mont?”
Looking confusedly at Orlina, Feng Yuan scratched his head and said,
“Can I say no?”
After glancing at the two, Orlina smiled and said,
“You haven’t had dinner yet, have you?
How about I treat you to a al in the alley?”
“There’s no need, Teacher Orlina.
Do you have sothing you want to discuss?”
With a sigh, Orlina said
“There are quite a few matters, why don’t we talk as we eat?”
Declining Orlina’s invitation, Feng Yuan and Qi Chen got their al and saw Orlina sitting in a corner waving at Feng Yuan.
Qi Chen said to Feng Yuan,
“I won’t co over with you.”
“Teacher Orlina probably isn’t going to discuss anything particularly secretive.
Of course, if you don’t want to go, that’s fine too.”
After hesitating for a mont, Qi Chen did not follow him but went to find Dou Yanlan who was waiting there.
Seeing this, Feng Yuan smiled and walked over to sit opposite Orlina, saying
“Teacher Orlina, what did you want to see about?”
“How is your relationship with the Twin Deities of the Oilia Region?”
“The Twin Deities of the Oilia Region?”
Hearing Orlina’s sudden question, Feng Yuan did not respond imdiately but after a mont replied,
“Do you an Arnis and Ernis?”
“Yes.”
“I’m not familiar with them, I haven’t t them.
What about them?”
Feng Yuan was sowhat puzzled, not quite understanding what Orlina wanted to do.
After a bout of silence, Orlina spoke,
“The Oilia Region is in chaos because of the Twin Deities, and although there’s no direct evidence, I’m certain that Ernis is causing trouble.”
“You an, those two have started fighting again?
Shouldn’t the Divine Beast Hall or the Alliance diate the wars between Divine Beasts?”
“No, they haven’t started fighting yet.
It’s just that Ernis has done sothing, and now there’s a wave of destroying Ancient Ruins sweeping through the entire Oilia Region.”
“Destroying Ancient Ruins?
What for?
I an, if they’re destroyed, they’re destroyed.
Apart from archaeologists, I doubt anyone would care about those, right?”
Feng Yuan said, sowhat perplexed.
After a mont of silence, Orlina said,
“The problem is that they are also vehently opposing certain Spirit Beast clans under the pretense of eradicating things that shouldn’t exist.”
Rembering the affair with the Big Mushroom, Feng Yuan narrowed his eyes and said,
“Are you sure it’s Ernis stirring things up?”
“Of course, only it could instigate such conflict, but for so reason Arnis hasn’t stopped it.”
“I’m not sure, but I can ask when Lorraine Tower and the others return.”
“Lorraine Tower is returning?”
Seeing Orlina’s puzzled look, Feng Yuan cryptically smiled and said,
“Secret~”
With a sigh, Orlina said,
“I ca to you hoping you could help prevent Ernis from doing this.
After all, those Ancient Ruins contain many things that have been lost to ti.
It would be such a pity to have them destroyed like this…
and those Spirit Beasts…”
Orlina couldn’t understand why Divine Beasts, who are the biggest support for Ordinary Spirit Beasts, would want to kill them in turn.
Feng Yuan could guess why Ernis would do such a thing, but because it was hard to explain, he simply chose not to say it.
He sighed and said,
“All I can do is try asking Lorraine Tower.
After all, Ernis is quite obstinate.
Once it’s fixated on sothing, it absolutely won’t back down.
Not even Arnis has a good handle on it.
But for Arnis not to intervene…”
After a long conversation with Orlina, Feng Yuan also roughly understood the current situation in the Oilia Region.
When he returned to the dormitory and lay on the bed, Feng Yuan said,
“I wonder what has happened to Arnis…”
When he noticed Qi Chen did not respond, Feng Yuan sat up, looked at Qi Chen curiously, and said,
“Aren’t you curious?”
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen calmly said,
“If you want to tell, I won’t ask.
You’d say it anyway…
and…”
Seeing Qi Chen’s sowhat distressed appearance, Feng Yuan said, sowhat puzzled,
“What’s wrong?
Have you caught a cold?”
“No, it’s just that Star Leaves have sohow been out of stock recently, and I can’t find them anywhere…”
“Star Leaves?
I rember those were abundantly produced.
How could they be out of stock?”
Feng Yuan was puzzled.
Qi Chen sighed and said,
“I don’t understand either.
Your list required Star Leaves harvested no more than a month ago, and I’ve asked many people to no avail.”
“Wait a second…
I rember that stuff is a specialty of the Starforest in the Oilia Region…
Alright, let think what might substitute for it.”
