Chapter 343 Departure, Heading to Kunlun Academy
The next morning.
A silver-white Falcon fighter jet took off from Shenwu Academy.
This aircraft, priced at over 9 million Federal Credits, is equipped with an Omega-powered engine, Thunder Spike Tracking Missiles, and an AT defensive field. It can move at Mach 4.25 and is coated with magical substances that allow it to become completely invisible once it reaches a certain speed.
The fighter jet had no pilot; it was entirely controlled by Mi Ling, a psionic AI life form independently developed by the Divine Martial Academy. She was responsible for remote piloting.
Today, the fighter jet, which is designed to carry 15 people, is only carrying 5.
Jiang Yuan, Lin Qingyan, Yan Runan, Sikong, and...
Sitting atop a giant gourd floating in mid-air, Professor Song Yun, a mental health specialist, crossed her legs and looked utterly dejected.
"Why do I have to go with you guys...?"
"I don't know." Dressed casually in black trousers and a white shirt, Jiang Yuan sat in the front row, looking at a book in his hand without turning his head.
"It's all your fault."
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Vice Principal Wang was worried that you would go on a rampage in someone else's territory and cause a huge mess, so he held a meeting and decided to draw lots to have a professor accompany you, to keep an eye on you. As a result, I became the unlucky one."
Song Yun sighed deeply.
Yan Runan chuckled and handed over a drink: "Teacher Song, there's no point in worrying about it now. Just think of it as a trip."
"That's true."
Song Yun took the drink, took a sip, and thought for a moment before saying, "It seems like it's been a while since I've left the academy."
"I remember Kunlun Academy is located in central China. There is a famous Taoist temple there called Lingxi Temple. It is said to have a ruin with countless rare and exotic animals, spiritual herbs and fruits, like a paradise."
Sikong smiled and joined in.
"I know that place too, but it seems that you need to hold a specific jade sword token to enter, and only a very small number of people are allowed in each year."
Yan Runan nodded.
"Right now, even just clues about the jade sword token online are being sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan."
"Oh? It's that valuable?"
"Yes, it's practically priceless. Especially after hearing that the ruins contain the Divine Beauty Herb that can keep women young forever, the price has skyrocketed, attracting the attention of countless mid-to-high-level martial artists."
"Why……"
Song Yun's eyes brightened slightly, and she traced her fingers in the air in front of her before immediately searching for relevant information online.
Lin Qingyan, however, poured cold water on the situation at an inopportune moment.
"There's no such thing as the Divine Beauty Grass; it's fake. It's just a gimmick put out by that Lingxi Dojo."
Immediately, everyone except Jiang Yuan turned to look at her.
Yan Runan looked surprised:
"A gimmick? Really?"
Song Yun also had a "How did you know?" expression on her face.
Lin Qingyan didn't say anything more. After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and entered a meditative state, unwilling to reveal any more information.
Sikong looked at her with interest for a few moments, finding her visualization technique to be quite mysterious and profound, with strange phenomena such as ice phoenixes dancing and a cold moon hanging in the sky surrounding her.
In his heart.
Throughout the entire Shenwu Academy, apart from Jiang Yuan.
This junior sister Lin was the most unfathomable to him. She was quite mysterious and shrouded in mist. In just a few months, she broke through from the fourth-level martial artist to the sixth-level martial artist. She even made him feel a slight threat.
They are truly not to be underestimated.
...
after a while.
After drinking several bottles of wine, Song Yun lay on the wine gourd and fell fast asleep.
Lin Qingyan and Sikong were both engaged in their respective visualization practices.
With her eyes bound by black silk and her blue hair tied at the waist, Yan Runan leaned close to Jiang Yuan and asked in a low voice:
"I saw someone online last time who was playing like a madman in the capital, beating up the Ye family in an S-level secret realm. Was that you?"
"no."
"Still pretending with your senior sister?! Even though the photo is blurry, that figure, that overwhelming aura of superiority—you still dare to say it's not you?!"
"Okay, I did it."
"Tsk tsk tsk, I knew it was you. How did you get into a fight with him? Tell me about it."
Yan Runan's stunningly beautiful face was filled with curiosity and longing to hear gossip.
"There's not much to say, I just helped a friend."
"A friend? You have acquaintances in the capital? Wait! Could it be Zheng Huangtong, the 'Judgment Princess' from the rumors online?!"
"Um."
"Holy crap!!!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Runan became excited and couldn't help but grab Jiang Yuan's arm.
"It really is her?!"
"What's wrong? Do you know her?"
"I know her, but she doesn't know me! She's the guild leader of the top-tier guild, Bow Phoenix Guild! My idol!! I was even planning to join her guild when I graduate. How do you know her?!"
"..."
"Senior sister, are you curious? Tell me about it, Junior Brother Jiang, no... Professor Jiang~~"
Yan Runan playfully shook Jiang Yuan's arm, and the fragrant breeze and soft touch against her chest made it impossible for Jiang Yuan to concentrate on reading.
This might be even more powerful than mental charm skills...
"Gentlemen, our fighter jets are about to enter the wilderness area in central China. This is an uninhabited area where ferocious beasts roam in packs. We cannot rule out the possibility of being attacked by these beasts. Please be prepared."
A pleasant female voice from the AI rang out, and a virtual girl's figure appeared on the crystal disk.
"Attention, attention! The current weather conditions are good. Based on the current flight path, we are expected to encounter severe thunderclouds and collide with a flock of moving thunderbirds in 7 minutes and 29 seconds."
"AT field activated. Turbulence and shaking of the aircraft are expected. Passengers below level six martial artist, please fasten your seatbelts."
……
at the same time.
Kunlun Academy is located in the mountains.
The group was waiting expectantly.
