Star Martial God Technique

Chapter 25 : Trapped?

An Xueyun looked at Xia Yuning gratefully, if she didn’t help them, perhaps they would have been successfully framed by Liang Yu.

Ye Xinghe was also full of gratitude to this scarlet-robe young girl, although he knew that Xia Yuning only helped him to save An Xueyun’s face.

At this moment, Liang Yu’s face getting darker, he hadn’t thought that Xia Yuning would also stand for Ye Xinghe, this was out of his calculations. Although he still wanted to strike more blow at Ye Xinghe, but after Xia Yuning said such words, he wasn’t willing to say anything anymore. After all, Xia Yuning was the woman he liked from a long time ago.

“Since Yuning said like that, then for the time being we won’t talk about it again, but you are still not clear from everything. When Sir Headmaster comes, we’ll let him judge this fairly!” Liang Yu snorted and said coldly.

Heard this, Ye Xinghe wrinkled his brows. From how calm Liang Yu’s appearance right now, Ye Xinghe faintly felt that Liang Jian shouldn’t have been killed by Liang Yu, otherwise he wouldn’t be this easy to him, letting matters go when some girls argued a bit and didn’t press hard on again. But, who did it, then?

“Xinghe, come over here! Look at this scene, it doesn’t looked like something a human could do!” Lin Hong said carefully.

Heard Lin Hong’s words, Ye Xinghe noted Liang Jian’s death body once more. The scars on his body truly didn’t look like something inflicted by human, more like cut by some sharp claws.

The students were discussing heatedly about the murder’s identity.

Teacher Chu Xian made everyone silent, then said, “Liang Yu, we can understand how you want to find the murderer, but we can’t be hasty about this, everything must be proved by evidence. Presently, we are unable to determine who Liang Jian’s murderer is, but looking at the corpse’s condition, Liang Jian’s death should not be caused by human, rather have been killed by Demon Beast’s attack!”

“Killed by demon beast’s attack?”

Heard Chu Xian’s words, all students were startled.

If Liang Jian wasn’t killed by human, then Ye Xinghe could definitely avoid suspicion!

When they carefully observed the scene, they realized that it was unlikely caused by human. The scars inflicted on the surrounding big trees, was dozens centimeters deep!

“Then why did my younger cousin Liang Jian walk so far coming here in the middle of the night?” Liang Jian frowned. He wasn’t willing to let Ye Xinghe avoid all suspicion so quickly like this.

“About this, we are also not clear.”Teacher Chu Xian shook his head and said, “Just wait for the arrival of Sir Headmaster, then we’ll discuss this matter again. To be able to kill Liang Jian and cause this much damage, likely this demon beast’s strength was at least at 3rd Heavenly Layer. Therefore, everyone must be careful and keep alert, it’s possible that it will come again to attack us!”

When they heard teacher Chu Xian’s words, most of the students’ face turned pale in fright. After all they had no experience fighting demon beast with high cultivation, if there was really demon beast in hiding, ready to ambush them at any moment of carelessness, it was too fearful!

Ye Xinghe still wrinkled his brows at this moment. Although it was true that there were traces of wild animals’ attack in the scene, but was Liang Jian really had been killed by demon beast? Why did Liang Jian, so late in the night, go to an open space several hundred meters away from their base camp?

“Everyone, keep calm and don’t panic. Although this demon beast had 3rd Heavenly Layer strength, as long as you stay close to the teachers, we will definitely protect you at all cost!” teacher Chu Xian said to comfort all the students.

When everyone still discussed everything that had happened, a teacher was running toward them in a hurry. This teacher was the one being sent around one double-hour earlier to report this matter to the headmaster.

“How come you’re back already? Have you reported everything to Sir Headmaster already?” teacher Chu Xian asked that teacher in doubt. After all, Heavenly Star Academy was at least several double-hours distance from this Smelting Trial site!

That teacher’s complexion was pale, he was horrified. He said several words to Chu Xian’s ear in a low voice.

Teacher Chu Xian’s immediately changed, he was greatly shocked. Unintentionally shouted, “What did you say? The bridge that was our only way back was destroyed?”

Because this news was too shocking, teacher Chu Xian lost control of himself and unconsciously blurted the words loudly.

Heard this news, on the faces of all students present, revealed an alarmed and frightened color, their complexion paled in an instant. That bridge was the only way that connected this smelting trial site with outside world, their only way back. But this all important bridge was now destroyed, which means they were trapped here thoroughly, even unable to relay any message to outside!

Firstly, they didn’t know where the demon beast hid, prepared to ambush and killed them at any moment. Now, even the plank bridge, their only way out from this Hunting Ground, was destroyed, leaving them trapped here with the ferocious demon beast.

Facing this dire situation, everyone couldn’t help but felt scared sh*tless.

Ye Xinghe felt extremely shocked. He and Lin Hong exchanged gazes, in Lin Hong’s pupil also flashed trace of astonishment.

We’re trapped and unable to left this place?

Who did all of this? And what did he want to do?

An Xueyun also never thought that the situation would turn for the worse like this. Her delicate eyebrows were tightly pressed. Xia Yuning on the distant place also revealed serious expression.

Teacher Chu Xian calmed down first. After careful consideration, he gave instruction to everyone.

“ Everyone, follow my instruction! Here altogether we have six teachers, so each teacher will be responsible for protecting five to six students! Students, Organize your groups among yourselves!” after said that, teacher Chu Xian was silent. He understood clearly, the most important thing they could do in this sort of situation was to protect the remaining students, so as to avoid the same accident from happening again.

“Yuning, team up with me! I will keep you safe!” Liang Yu looked at Xia Yuning then said in a loud voice.

“No need! I am fine together with An Xueyun!” Xia Yuning flatly rejected him, then walked toward An Xueyun.

Saw Xia Yuning’s indifferent expression, in Liang Yu’s eyes flashed the color of anger. All this time, he already tried everything to get closer to Xia Yuning, but each time, always declined flatly by her. His blood boiling in anger, he secretly pledged in his heart, that one day, he absolutely would make Xia Yuning turn into his woman!

An Xueyun looked at Ye Xinghe, then understood what her meant, Ye Xinghe nodded his head.

In the end An Xueyun, Ye Xinghe, Xia Yuning, Lin Hong, and Mo Yu gathered in one group, under protection of one teacher called Hong Xuan.

Zhao Ning’Er and Ying Lu wanted to get in the same group with Ye Xinghe, but when they saw him together with An Xueyun and Xia Yuning, they didn’t approached them, but instead looked for other group to join. As she looked at An Xueyun’s back, Zhao Ning’Er sneered. This An Xueyun really had no shame as woman, she obviously already engaged, but unexpectedly still had affair with other lover in the open. On the outside, she looked like an ice-cold, noble lady, but inside she was actually just an immoral woman!

“For the Heavenly Star Academy to realize that we’re being trapped in this place, at least it would take 1-2 days, and to fix the broken plank bridge would need another 3-5 days. All this time, we will be trapped here, so we must pay extra attention to the consumption of grains. We will hunt and kill some Flame Birds for food, although their meat is somewhat bitter and hard to chew, but it still passable to relieve some hunger and give energy!” having said all of that, teacher Chu Xian was somewhat bitter. Food, although important, still was not the most urgent matter. The most important thing was to avoid being hunted and killed by that demon beast!

Teacher Chu Xian turned his gaze to Liang Jian’s corpse. Then he solemnly said, “We need to bury him first. These days we shall expend utmost attention to defend ourselves from demon beast, so it will be impossible to spare our attention to guard this corpse. Furthermore, if the corpse don’t get buried and exposed outside, it will inevitably attract surrounding demon beast to eat it!”

Heard teacher Chu Xian’s words, Ye Xinghe’s mind was quickly working. That’s right, if Liang Jian was truly attacked by demon beast, why did Liang Jian’s corpse still here? Why it hadn’t been eaten yet?

“Please wait a minute!” Liang Yu’s voice heard, his tone extremely unwilling, “teacher Chu Xian, if my younger cousin’s corpse is buried, won’t it erase all trace of the murderer?”
