“Your advancement is quite timely!”
Xu Siqi could no longer suppress his excitement. “Over the past few days, the confrontation between Yin Qingleng and us has become more and more intense. Before you came, we were still worried about how to resist Yin Qingleng’s threats. I didn’t expect you to bring news of your advancement to rank five at this time. How timely!”
Xu Siqi sighed at Xu Ning’s top-notch aptitude.
He knew that Xu Ning was only in his twenties, but he was already a rank five arcanist.
When Xu Siqi was at Xu Ning’s age, he had just broken through to rank three.
Now that thirty years had passed, he was still stuck at the peak of rank four.
“Xu Ning.”
Jiang Xu said, “After advancing to rank five, can you hide your true strength from Yin Qingleng?”
“I can.”
Xu Ning nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
According to the characteristics of the Martial Arts Panel, once Xu Ning advanced, he would be at the peak of his realm.
Compared to Yin Qingleng, Xu Ning’s realm even had the upper hand.
In this situation, with a high-level Aura Restraining Pill, Xu Ning could completely hide his aura.
Even when facing a rank six master, Xu Ning was extremely confident in concealing his true strength.
“That’s good.”
Jiang Xu said, “In this case, you should hide your strength first. That way, you can be our trump card and take them by surprise at the critical moment.”
“Okay.”
Xu Ning was quite cooperative.
Jiang Xu revealed a relaxed smile.
This time, the scale of war began to tilt towards their side in their upcoming battle with Yin Qingleng.
Jiang Xu, Xu Siqi, and Lu Wang then explained the current situation to Xu Ning.
Before this, Xu Ning was mainly focused on collecting resources, so he didn’t know much about the current situation. Now that he was being briefed by the three of them, he had a deeper understanding of the current situation.
After the exchange, Xu Ning left Jiang Xu’s place.
He was going to visit Guan Yue.
Ever since he joined the Ice Feather Institute, the number of exchanges between him and Guan Yue had decreased.
While walking in the Ice Feather Institute, Xu Ning suddenly saw Gu Chixing in the distance.
But Gu Chixing didn’t notice Xu Ning’s presence.
‘This Gu Chixing looks a little flustered…’
Xu Ning noticed Gu Chixing’s strange expression.
After thinking about it, Xu Ning hid behind a rock garden and restrained his aura.
Gu Chixing passed by the rock garden, but he did not find Xu Ning lurking in the dark.
After Gu Chixing walked away, Xu Ning appeared behind the rockery.
‘He should be heading towards Yin Qingleng’s residence.’
Xu Ning’s eyes narrowed. ‘Judging by Gu Chixing’s behavior, he obviously wants to bring some sensitive news to Yin Qingleng.’
Xu Ning followed behind Gu Chixing silently.
Xu Ning now had the ability to sneak into Yin Qingleng’s residence and eavesdrop for information.
Sure enough, Gu Chixing walked into Yin Qingleng’s courtyard and entered his study.
Xu Ning easily dodged the guards and climbed onto the roof of the study.
When Xu Ning was in rank four, he would definitely be noticed by Yin Qingleng.
But after advancing to rank five, he didn’t have to worry about this problem at all.
Xu Ning leaned forward and placed his ear close to the roof, listening to the conversation in the room.
“Institute Head.”
After Gu Chixing walked in, he first greeted Yin Qingleng respectfully.
“How is it?”
Yin Qingleng was reading a book, but after seeing Gu Chixing come in, he put it aside.
“The Wind Sea Institute has given an affirmative answer.”
Gu Chixing lowered his voice.
‘The Wind Sea Institute?’
Xu Ning, who was lying on the roof, heard everything.
Xu Ning’s expression changed slightly.
It had been a few months since he came to the southern part of the Barren Wind Region, so Xu Ning had some understanding of the arcanist factions here.
The Wind Sea Institute was an arcanist institution in the southern part of the Barren Wind Region.
Its overall strength was quite strong, and its institute head was a rank six master.
Before the death of the Old Institute Head of the Ice Feather Institute, the Ice Feather Institute had 70% of the Wind Sea Institute’s strength, but after the death of the Old Institute Head, the Ice Feather Institute was far inferior to the Wind Sea Institute.
‘Yin Qingleng is actually involved with the Wind Sea Institute…’
Xu Ning also knew that there was some friction between the Ice Feather Institute and the Wind Sea Institute.
Listening up until here, Xu Ning knew that Yin Qingleng and Gu Chixing must have some secrets that couldn’t be told.
Xu Ning placed his ear closer to the roof and continued to eavesdrop.
“What did they say?”
Yin Qingleng asked.
“They said that as long as we can lure them out of the Ice Feather Institute, they will kill them.”
Gu Chixing said.
“Good!”
Yin Qingleng laughed loudly.
“Institute Head, who do you plan to get rid of first?”
Gu Chixing asked.
“Jiang Xu, Xu Siqi, or Xu Ning, any one of these three people will be a major blow to Lu Wang’s forces.”
Yin Qingleng’s tone was cold and murderous.
In his opinion, Jiang Xu and Xu Siqi were the strongest supporters of Lu Wang. Any one of them dead could weaken Lu Wang’s strength by 30%.
As for Xu Ning, he made Yin Qingleng feel threatened.
Although Xu Ning rarely participated in the affairs of the Ice Feather Institute, his aptitude was too high. Yin Qingleng felt that Xu Ning was a potential threat.
He was afraid that on the day Xu Ning broke through to rank five, he would deal a huge blow to him.
‘They actually colluded with the Wind Sea Institute to kill us!’
On the roof, Xu Ning’s eyes were cold.
Jiang Xu and Xu Siqi’s judgment of Yin Qingleng was correct. He was indeed going to make his move.
“In a few days, I will hold another meeting. I will randomly assign a mission to send one or two of them out, giving the people of the Wind Sea Institute the opportunity to get rid of them.”
Yin Qingleng continued.
“Mmm…”
Gu Chixing nodded and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
“What?”
Yin Qingleng smiled when he saw this. “Feeling pressured?”
Gu Chixing forced a smile.
Gu Chixing knew very well that he was a traitor.
Once this matter was exposed, not to mention the Ice Feather Institute, even in the entire southern part of the Barren Wind Region, he would be hated by everyone.
“What are you afraid of? This is not the first time.”
Yin Qingleng walked over and patted Gu Chixing’s shoulder. “Isn’t the death of the Old Institute Head orchestrated by you too?”
Yin Qingleng brought up the past, causing Gu Chixing to tremble and stop talking.
On the roof, Xu Ning also heard this.
‘So the death of the Old Institute Head was also the scheme of Yin Qingleng and Gu Chixing!’
Xu Ning’s pupils contracted.
Today, when he followed Gu Chixing here, he really heard some serious information.
