Tsk, what unfortunate timing.
Xin Lin turned around, only to find the shadow of the giant mountain cat had disappeared.
Xin Lin also recognized the newcors in a glance; among them, one individual looked sowhat familiar.
"The third person from the left is Chen You."
Murong Ziyue whispered in reminder.
Only then did Xin Lin rember that Chen You was the Chen Princely Heir from Qin Mountain.
"Why is it you guys again? Hunting a Fierce Beast? Where’s the Fierce Beast person?"
Long Qingchen and others, upon seeing Murong Ziyue and Xin Lin, didn’t show a good expression.
This period, due to the Fierce Beast incident, the rivalry between the Martial Arts Academy and Spirit Institute had intensified like never before.
"It ran away. If you had arrived just a bit later, we would have caught it."
Xin Lin shrugged his shoulders.
"Bullshit. We’ve been patrolling here all night, and haven’t seen any Fierce Beast. You two are clearly up to no good."
Long Qingchen scolded angrily.
"Third Prince, if you don’t believe us, we can lead you to it. The Fierce Beast couldn’t have gone far by now."
Xin Lin said.
The Giant Mountain Cat had run towards the direction of the Martial Arts Academy; it must be a student’s pet from the Academy.
"Let’s search then. But if we find nothing, don’t bla for being inhospitable."
Long Qingchen sneered.
He led Xin Lin and the others towards the direction of the Martial Arts Academy.
The sky was gradually brightening.
Many students from the Martial Arts Academy had already risen. Long Qingchen continued the search with Xin Lin, combing through the Academy’s four large hills.
They searched until dawn but failed to find the Fierce Beast.
"This..."
Murong Ziyue was quite astonished.
How could this be? They clearly saw the Fierce Beast head in this direction, so why was there no trace of it?
They had already scoured every cabin, yet there was no sign of it.
"You have nothing to say now, do you? Both of you are clearly lying. Sneaking around in the middle of the night, I bet the Fierce Beast is clearly connected to you! Co on, escort them to Governor Huang to receive your punishnt."
Long Qingchen’s face was filled with cold laughter.
He had been looking for an opportunity to settle the score since the Zixiao Palace Exam last ti.
Unfortunately, he had not found the right mont.
Now, with both the persons and evidence captured, he wanted to see how Xin Lin and Murong Ziyue would talk their way out of this.
Several students from the Martial Arts Academy approached with grim smiles.
"Hold on!"
Xin Lin suddenly raised his voice.
"Xin Lin, what tricks do you want to play now?"
Long Qingchen gave Xin Lin a sidelong glance.
"That Fierce Beast, it’s inside the Martial Arts Academy. I request a rerun of the search."
Xin Lin spoke in a cold tone.
Murong Ziyue hesitated beside him.
They had indeed searched all the cabins inside the Martial Arts Academy and found no Fierce Beast.
Xin Lin winked at Murong Ziyue, signaling her not to say more.
On the search just now, Xin Lin had also felt sothing was very peculiar.
The Fierce Beast had been wounded by the Combat Lobster; logically, it couldn’t have escaped too far.
Yet, there was no trace of it along the way. Could it be that the Fierce Beast had simply vanished into thin air?
It was just then that she began to recall, dimly perceiving sothing.
"You’re at death’s door and still clueless. We don’t have ti to ss around with you. I think the Fierce Beast is that egg of yours. Hand over your egg, otherwise, wait to be punished together with it by the Academy authorities."
Without further ado, Long Qingchen forced Murong Ziyue and Xin Lin towards the Teaching Institute.
Early in the morning, Qingtian Academy was thrown into chaos.
As soon as Mu Chen entered the Teaching Institute, he heard a group of new and old students gathered together.
"Have you heard? They’ve caught the Fierce Beast."
"They say that Xin Lin from the Shaking Light Class and Murong Ziyue from the Tianxuan Class were caught in the act."
"They’ve already been sent to the Academy office. The dean has just hurried over."
"I think this ti it’s going to be more bad luck than good. Xin Lin loves to court disaster."
