The Great Elder could not believe his ears. If he could not tell that the student in front of him was merely at the 5th level of the Arterial Circulation Realm, and that his anxiety and fear was not fake, he would have thought that the student had gone crazy.

A student had not only taken the Blue Flames, but had also killed Patriarch Seven, Shui Ani?

This was a huge joke!

Who is the anise?

She was one of the Elders of the East Continent Academy, a cultivator!

If she wanted to kill a martial artist, it would be no different from crushing an ant to death. It would be as easy as blowing away a speck of dust!

But now, there was actually someone who said that she was killed by a student. This was simply absurd.

All the students above the Danhai Realm had joined the school. Unless they were recruited by the school or sent on missions by the school, most of them would be cultivating in the school.

Other than that, the rest of the students were mostly Arterial Circulation Realm martial artists. However, if one of these students killed Shui Ruo, the Great Elder would be willing to believe that one of the beasts in the forbidden area had reached a terrifying level of cultivation and had taken the human form.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to believe it. He wouldn't have been able to explain why a small martial artist was able to kill a cultivator. This was as ridiculous as an ant devouring a fierce tiger.

"That woman was killed by your students?" He even stole the azure fire? "Hahaha …"

The Great Elder wasn't the only one who felt this was absurd. Hearing the student's stuttering words, Cheng Shuang Luo was first stunned, and then he raised his head and laughed out loud.

No wonder he was only in charge of a small martial arts college when he was his age. So it turns out that this person was just a idiot, to think that he could even tell such a ridiculous lie about what kind of student he had taught in order to escape punishment.

"Bastard, you actually dare to speak such nonsense!"

The Great Elder's face alternated between green and white as he looked at the student with killing intent.

The student trembled in fear as he hurriedly said, "Grand Elder, what I said was the truth. That student really killed Seventh Elder and stole the azure fire …"

"Haha!" What a good joke! "

Cheng Qingluo's male pet knew that he was up and about, and jokingly said: "Then tell me, how did that person kill your elder?"

The Great Elder's face darkened as he smiled bitterly, "Junior brother Cheng, it's my fault for being unkind and letting you make fun of me. I'll bring this bastard back right now and I'll definitely punish him …"

"Deacon Su, don't worry. It's better to listen to what he has to say." Chengdu laughed and said, "It's boring waiting anyway, so I might as well listen to it. It's a lot of fun."

"This …"

He did not expect that Cheng Zhong Luo would actually listen to his male pet and was obviously going to watch him make a fool of himself. However, he could not reject him and could only glare viciously at the student as he coldly said, "Tell me the truth. If there is even a single lie …"

"Everything that this disciple has said is true, I dare not lie to Great Elder!" "Patriarch Seven blocked our way and forced us disciples to cross the cold pond …" The student was so scared that his body trembled as he said in a flustered manner, "At that time, Patriarch Seven blocked our way and forced us to go through the cold pond …"

He did not dare to hide anything, so he quickly told the whole story in detail.

When they had just entered the Forbidden Land of Boundless, Shui Ani had not gone down yet. He had also started talking about how they had tried to refine the azure fire, but failed. After they had gone down, how they had been forced to explore the dangerous areas, and how they had forced the students with lower cultivations to forcefully cross the cold pond.

And how the fennel blocked their way, even beheaded many students, using it to intimidate them, forcing them to pick the blue flames, etc. Every detail in the entire process was described in great detail.

As the student spoke, the First Elder's expression changed slightly.

Because he noticed that the vast majority of the details that this student spoke of were practically no different from what the students that had fled earlier had said.

They all mentioned that when Shui Ani forced the students to cross the cold pond to retrieve the azure fire, someone was secretly inciting them to escape. Shui Ani had also successfully angered Shui Yi, allowing her to rush into the crowd to search for the person who had incited them.

However, this student's description was slightly different from the others when it came to some extremely minute details. However, it was precisely because of this that the First Elder became a little more cautious. In fact, the doubt in his heart was somewhat lessened.

It wasn't surprising that these students had the same argument.

However, these minuscule details, if the students who had escaped previously had the exact same thoughts as the person in front of them, then it was certain that they had spoken the same words below. Then this matter must have been completely different.

However, the details described by this student were exactly the same as what the other students had told him. Even though the details were not exactly the same, it was still quite reasonable.

The Great Elder's expression gradually turned serious. He stared at the student and said in a deep voice, "Are you saying that the student who encouraged you took the chance to take the Azure Flame while you were running away, and even tried to kill Seventh Elder?"

The academy hurriedly nodded, "Yes!"

"In that case, did you guys not encounter another batch of students at all?" The Great Elder suddenly asked.

"Another batch?"

He could not help but shake his head. "It seems I did not meet them, because disciple's strength is average, so he is only focused on investigating the forbidden grounds. He did not pay attention to any of this, but from the beginning to the end, he did not hear his fellow seniors mention that he had met another batch of students."

The Great Elder stared at him for a long moment, as if to confirm that he was not lying.

A moment later, the Head Elder immediately turned his head and said, "Junior Brother Cheng, since there has been such an unexpected turn of events, I must send someone to investigate. Junior Brother Cheng, please calm down."

Cheng Qin Luo laughed: "Deacon Su, you can go. However, I do not have that much time to waste here. Currently, the green blue flame has already completed its evolution.

From his point of view, the Great Elder's caution made him think that he was trying to conceal his incompetence. Thus, he could not help but mock him.

"Junior brother Cheng, don't worry. I'll definitely investigate this as soon as possible."

When the Great Elder saw Cheng Qin Luo's mocking expression, he could not help but blush and replied quickly.

After which, the Great Elder quickly sent people to investigate. Just to be safe, he not only sent out students at the peak of the Arterial Circulation Realm, but also sent out two teachers.

Even though the person who was chosen was extremely unwilling, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction under the authority of the Great Elder.

The Great Elder's expression was somewhat grave. That student had actually never seen the student descending from the other side. This was very abnormal.

The evolution of the azure fire was indeed terrifying, but it had already been a few days. The berserk zone should be ready by now. The students on the other side might not have been able to obtain the azure fire, but it was not impossible to see them completely.

It wasn't as though everyone had encountered chaotic space!

Turning his head to look at the student who had reported the situation, the Great Elder looked at his expression of fear and trepidation and had a bad premonition.

Time quickly passed, and in the blink of an eye, four hours passed.

On the face of the Great Elder, the frown on his face deepened.

"There's movement!"

At this moment, the Elder in charge of receiving the students suddenly shouted. Hearing what was said, the First Elder immediately walked over.

An hour later, the student in charge of investigation was called in. The First Elder immediately asked, "What's the situation below? Have the students seen it?"

"Grand Elder, something, something has happened!"

The teacher leading the team looked panicked.

The head elder's heart sank as he immediately asked, "Tell me in detail what exactly happened?"

"Those students were attacked!"

The teacher in charge hurriedly said, "Grand Elder, someone attacked our students and knocked them unconscious. They removed all their limbs and threw them onto a tree …"

The teacher reported in panic what he had seen.

They reached the bottom of the forbidden area and walked in the direction of the blue flames' explosion. However, they hadn't gone far when they heard waves of painful cries. The scene they saw afterwards made them pale with fright.

He saw the students of the Eastern Region Academy densely hanging on the large trees that were already scorched. They simply couldn't believe their eyes.

"In order to report back to the grand elder, we've temporarily saved a few students and left a few more behind to save the others …" The teacher pointed at the terrified young students behind him and said, "Great Elder, we were the ones who saved them first. We should let them report the details to the Great Elder."

"Speak!"

The Great Elder said with a dark expression.

The students tensed up and hurriedly clasped their fists in salute.

"Grand Elder, after we reached the bottom, we encountered an attack. Senior Brothers and Sisters were knocked unconscious, but when we woke up, we discovered that all our limbs had been removed and we were even hung on a big tree. This disciple's strength is weak and unable to escape, so we could only bitterly wait …"

"Who attacked you?"

"Reporting to Great Elder, this disciple did not see his appearance clearly. However, this person is dressed the same as disciple …"

"What?"

Many people exclaimed in a low voice. A student dressed in the same way as this student, wouldn't he be a student of the Eastern Region Academy?

Was it a student who attacked them?

Swish!

The Great Elder's expression suddenly darkened. His eyes were dark and ruthless, so angry that even his hair was standing on end.

He had thought that the student had lied on purpose to escape punishment, but now he was certain that a certain student had betrayed the academy, and not only had he attacked these students, he had even killed Shui Bian.

What was even more unbearable to the Great Elder was that this person actually stole the Azure Flame.
