Moreover a third level Purple Spirit, to any of the palaces, would be a highly prized elite where most of them would be at the Elder level. Unless there was a pressing need, none of the Twelve Palaces could possibly send out such much power at once which was just too terrifying!
It would definitely be almost their entire might and why would the Blood Fiend Palace suddenly want to do something that drastic?
The information that Ye Gu gave to Jun Wu Xie made Jun Wu Xie unable to determine the origins or identity of this group of people.
Volume 17
Chapter 1615: “Dangers Under the Dark Night (2)”
Under the cover of night, a group of people quietly came into the Cloudy Brook Academy. The people patrolling various areas of the Cloudy Brook Academy had completely not noticed that such a big group of people had infiltrated into the place.
With the moon shining down, dark figures darted speedily past within the shadowy corners like venomous snakes hidden within the dark.
The youths within the academy were already deep in sleep as the rigorous training and long cultivation hours had depleted all their energies and drained out their strength completely. When night fell, they had all fallen limply into the beds to snore loudly in sleep, none of them noticing anything out of place.
Inside the Spirit Mastery faculty, Su Ya who was lying upon the soft lounge in sleep suddenly opened her eyes in the dark. Within the darkness, the usual highly lazy and languid gaze had dissipated from her bright pair of eyes, now filled with a razor sharp glint like blades unsheathed.
In the Headmaster’s courtyard, the little old man who was urging Tian Ze to fan the thin fan he held suddenly sat up straight, his eyes filled with vigor suddenly turning to look out through the open window, staring into the scenery shrouded by night.
Feeling like his hand was almost about to fall off from fanning, Tian Ze suddenly noticed the change that had come over his Master. He was so exhausted he was almost falling asleep, his eyelids already drooping down.
“Master….. can I rest already?” His mind was groggy, the sleepiness growing heavy with the warmth from the stove enveloping his entire body comfortably, the fragrant scent of the herbs highly soothing that made him feel like curling himself up upon the warm floor to snore away.
“Moron, have you not noticed that we have “guests” here already?” The little old man said as he delivered a sharp rap to Tian Ze’s head, before he carefully kept the piece of paper he had held in his hand all this time into his robes at his chest.
Tian Ze was shocked awake by the little old man’s words, driving away the sleepiness completely. His eyes flared wide open and he shot to his feet with a woosh. With the sleepiness faded away, he finally noticed the presence of unfamiliar spirit energies, his groggy eyes immediately becoming clear.
“How rare is it?” The little old man said as he pushed himself up pressing on his knees, a hand slipping to his back to thump his back in massage. “We haven’t had any uninvited guests for a long time already.”
“But this group of people have really chosen a wrong time. That medicine of mine is just about to be successfully cultivated and it will have to be delayed once again.” The little old man said, his heart highly unwilling to part from this medicine stove he had laboured over for an entire day. According to the step by step guide, the medicine within the stove would be completed after just one more hour. What a pity, these people had to choose to come disturb at this time just when he was so focused on the task.
Really a great pity.
Tian Ze did not say anything but his eyes became stern and serious.
The Cloudy Brook Academy had set the rule from a long time ago that without their approval, no one was to break in. Even for the Palace Lords of the Twelve Palaces and the Temple Lords of the Nine Temples, it was the same.
But now, someone had silently slipped into the Cloudy Brook Academy and that was against the rules of the Cloudy Brook Academy. This was a direct challenge to the dignity and authority of the Cloudy Brook Academy!
“It’s alright Little Tian. All who come here are our guests and as the hosts, we have to show them our hospitality. Let’s go.” The little old man had both hands clasped behind his back, unhurried as he walked out in front while Tian Ze at the side moved like a bolt of lightning, charging out from inside the little house, his figure quickly disappearing into the dark night.
The little old man watched the remnant shadow Tian Ze left behind from his departure as he shook his head slowly.
“Young people just cannot hold themselves and are so highly impatient.”
Saying that, he slowly raised up a foot to take the first step. But at the very moment the tip of his toe touched the ground, the figure of the little old man suddenly wavered, like an imaginary shadow had been cloned, overlapping over each other together. With that slight waver of the figure of the little old man, in the next instant, the figure of the little old man suddenly disappeared from its spot, not even stirring up the a single gust of wind at all as he disappeared without a trace.

Chapter 1616: “Dangers Under the Dark Night (3)”
Between the loft blocks the disciples resided in, several black shadows shot fleetingly past, quiet as a breeze, without making the slightest sound.
The Cloudy Brook Academy guards standing outside the lofts had their eyes looking straight ahead, never noticing that danger was approaching surreptitiously near.
The two guards only felt a tinge of chill upon their necks and when they stretched their hands to feel their necks, they felt a warm stickiness upon their palms. They were not even able to utter a single sound before they fell to the ground under the night, their warm blood spilling out from the wound that had appeared on their necks, pulling on the ground.
The thick stench of blood was dissipated by the breeze, gradually carrying the shroud of death to spread over the entire Cloudy Brook Academy.
Several people hidden within the darkness then walked past soundlessly, leaving death and terror behind them.
Jun Wu Xie sat within her room, a faint breeze blowing in through her slightly open window, the slightly chill wind tinged with the faint scent of blood. Though the scent was faint and very light, it struck Jun Wu Xie’s heart like a heavy lightning bolt.
Death had descended quietly without a sound. The group of intruders that Ye Gu had discovered were definitely not friendly and it seemed that someone within the Cloudy Brook Academy had succumbed under their hands.
Though they have not met, but Jun Wu Xie knew that those people were foes and not friends!
“Young Miss, will you need us to move?” Ye Sha’s voice was tinged with a certain heaviness. In the past, he would always quietly await Jun Wu Xie’s orders but this time, the enemies held might beyond what they had expected. Moreover, the identities of the people were still unknown and in such situations, Jun Wu Xie could easily fall into an disadvantageous situation.
Jun Wu Xie’s eyes narrowed up as she suddenly sat upright, to toss two bottles of medicine to Ye Sha and Ye Gu.
“Swallow it.”
Ye Sha and Ye Gu did not question at all and just followed Jun Wu Xie’s orders to swallow what they had been given.
Jun Wu Xie then quietly dug out a pill about the size of a quail’s egg from her Cosmos Sack which she held between her thumb and finger, to quickly crush to dust. A faint plume of smoke slowly emitted from the pill which was carried away by the breeze blowing in from outside, to spread through the gaps around Jun Wu Xie’s door, into the loft building.
“Young Miss?” Ye Gu was a little puzzled, not understanding what Jun Wu Xie was doing.
Jun Wu Xie tugged at the corners of her clothes expressionlessly as she raised her foot to walk over to the door. When her hand grasped over the door handle, she then said softly: “The two of you do not need to make any moves.”
Upon saying that, Jun Wu Xie pulled her door open and walked outside.
At the same time t
hat Jun Wu Xie walked out from her room, within the completely empty corridor, several tall figures appeared. They all came walking out from their own rooms, several youths standing at their doors, exchanging glances with each other before their gazes finally fell upon the figure of Jun Wu Xie. And at that moment, a kind of excitement they had suppressed for so long now rose to show on their faces, within those pairs of bright eyes, a roaring blaze seemed to burn.
Several dark shadows with the faint scent of blood clinging on their clothes walked into the highly silent loft building, where behind the many tightly shut doors, were completely defenceless and soundly asleep youths.
The figures who moved silent as wraiths advanced within the loft building, through the dense darkness of the corridors, the only faint light coming from the window at the end of the hallway.
The dark shadows advanced towards their target, to halt in their steps before a tightly locked door.
At the very instant that they were about to break through the door and enter, a cold and clear voice suddenly sounded behind their backs!
Volume 17
Chapter 1617: “Dangers Under the Dark Night (4)”
“Could it be that no one has ever taught you that one should knock first before entering?”
The voice that was tinged with a chill reached the ears of the several dark robed figures and surprise showed on the faces of the dark robed men. They turned themselves around immediately to see that a tiny figure had appeared, by the window with silvery moonlight spilling in. From the faint glow of the moonlight, it could be seen that it was a delicately featured youth, but what really surprised them was not that not too remarkable looking countenance, but was instead the bone chilling pair of eyes he possessed.
The sudden appearance of the youth, had shocked a few of the dark robed men a little, as they had not detected the youth’s presence in the slightest.
The place that they were at, was where the freshmen of the Cloudy Brook Academy resided. They had not thought that such a thin looking little youth would be able to notice their presence.
However, they were not intending to be so calculative with the kid and one of the dark robed men had upon the moment that that cold voice fell, already charged straight towards the youth standing under the moonlight.
But before he could get closer to the youth in the slightest, several figures instantly came to stand in front, blocking off the youth. Several streaks of blinding Purple Spirit energies then exploded all at the same time straight towards the dark robed man who had leapt forward.
The dark robed man was caught completely off guard. Having been attacked by several powerful Purple Spirits at the same time, he was pushed right back in an instant!
By the time he was able to stabilise himself and take a good look, he and his companions at his back were all suddenly stunned!
Under the brilliant glow of Purple Spirit energies, five figures suddenly stood before their eyes. They were five youths with highly outstanding looks and what surprised the group of black robed men even more was that upon the bodies of those young youths, were strong and intense Purple Spirit energies being emitted!
The density of the spirit energy was that of the purest Purple Spirit and not the feigned Purple Spirit that was forcibly achieved through some technique or ability.
But the youths all looked to be only so young but the powers they displayed right before their eyes surprised them a little.
These youths were not just Purple Spirits, but their powers were all at the Purple Spirit’s third level!
Even in the Middle Realm, to attain a breakthrough into the Purple Spirit before twenty years of age was already seen as extremely difficult and if they were able to achieve that, that person would be deemed as a prodigy among prodigies, the best of the best, no need to even mention raising up their powers to the Purple Spirit’s third level before turning twenty!
It must be known that after breaking through to the Purple Spirit, the advancement of every single level called for highly suffocating torment.
It was a miracle that could not possibly happen but here it was displayed right before their eyes, the spirit power emanating from the bodies of the youths so robust, impossible to fake.
“We are all really lacking in manners here. Suddenly intruding into this place and they are still being so brutal. What a bunch of unlovable guests.” Fan Zhuo’s face had a gentle smile on it as he said nonchalantly.
“What I would like to instead ask you guys here is what is a bunch of men thinking to do running to our Little Xie’s room in the middle of the night?” Qiao Chu asked as he cracked his knuckles loudly, his slightly lifted chin filled with taunt.
Besides Fan Zhuo and Qiao Chu, Hua Yao, Fei Yan and Rong Ruo were standing beside them while Jun Wu Xie behind them whom they shielded slowly walked to the front, her cold clear eyes staring at the stunned dark robed men with an unwavering gaze.
“You were seeking me?”
The dark robed men were all completely taken aback. Never had any of them thought that the person Gu Ying wanted them to investigate into would turn out to be the youth who had first spoken earlier!
Volume 17
Chapter 1618: “Dangers Under the Dark Night (5)”
According to what Gu Ying had said before, what they needed to investigate was just to look into one freshman of the Cloudy Brook Academy. But it was only till this moment that they realized that things were far beyond what they had thought. Not to mention how the tiny kid had soundlessly appeared behind their backs, just the powers of the other five youths standing behind Jun Wu had already far exceeded what any of them could have expected.
And it was clear to see that the youths were completely on Jun Wu’s side.
That had immediately caused their investigations to take a surprising turn.
“Eh, all of you were running to Little Xie’s room and were up to no good right? That really wouldn’t be good you know?” Fei Yan said as he smiled to the dark robed men. When Jun Wu Xie had come out from her room, they had immediately sensed it and they had all come out as well, to properly welcome this group of “special guests”.
“Is it really appropriate that you guys are revealing Little Xie like this?” Rong Ruo said with a slight sigh.
Jun Wu Xie’s name in the Cloudy Brook Academy did not contain the character “Xie”.
“You’re saying it as if you had not exposed it as well.” Qiao Chu retorted as his eyebrow lifted up.
Hua Yao then spoke up in a cold voice: “It doesn’t matter. Dead men tell no tales.”
The casual conversation between the several youths was instead appearing to be highly arrogant, their demeanor and tone of voice completely disregarding their enemies, which quickly caused the faces of the dark robed men to turn a highly ugly shade.
[Though these kids possess quite a significant amount of power, but aren’t they disregarding the whole group of men a little too much?]
[With such arrogance in their words, do they really think that their powers are completely unparalleled?]
“Little runts, all of you shall pay the price for your ignorance.” One of the dark robed men among the group sneered, his body suddenly flaring out with the brilliant glow of the Purple Spirit, the extent of his powers exceeding that of Qiao Chu and the others.
The Purple Spirit’s fourth level!
After one broke through to the Purple Spirit, advancing up every single level was an almost unbridgeable chasm, and the crushing aura from a Purple Spirit’s fourth level to a Purple Spirit’s third level was something unimaginable to average people.
“Oh my! How terrifying! It’s a fourth level Purple Spirit! I am being….. Scared! To! Death!” Qiao Chu exclaimed loudly with mock terror as he patted himself on his heart, the exaggerated expression on his face making it hard for people to not laugh. He lifted up a hand and placed it on Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder, his face twisted up in a “I’m so scared” expression.
“Little Xie, someone want to use his four
th level powers to beat us up. What do you say we should do?”
Jun Wu Xie swept her expressionless gaze over Qiao Chu’s highly exaggerated act and her cold eyes then turned to look at the dark robed man.
“Who did you say….. was going to pay the price?” At the moment the chilly and nonchalant voice fell, Jun Wu Xie’s body immediately flared with a highly intense hue of her Purple Spirit’s glow as well! The kind of spirit power she possessed when compared to that of the dark robed man’s, was seen to be stronger!
The dark robed man who had been ready to teach Qiao Chu and the others a good lesson suddenly stared with his eyes widened in shock when he saw the Purple Spirit glow on Jun Wu’s body, unable to believe what he was seeing.
[This runt was actually a fourth level Purple Spirit?]
[What could that be possible! ?]
Not only the dark robed man was stunned. Even his companions behind him had jumped in shock by Jun Wu’s display of power.
Their main objective in coming into the Cloudy Brook Academy this time was to find a certain something and they had made a slight detour to come here only to fulfil Gu Ying’s orders. They would never have thought that a freshman in the Cloudy Brook Academy would be all that powerful and hence, their group here had only consisted of one fourth level Purple Spirit and five third level Purple Spirits.
Volume 17
Chapter 1619: “Dangers Under the Dark Night (6)”
Having underestimated the enemy too much, had caused the dark robed men to slip up very badly this time!
Not even in their dreams would they have thought that this side mission they were thinking to complete easily would suddenly bring them into such a great crisis.
