Enchantress Amongst Alchemists Ghost King's Wife

Chapter 1115 – Set Up Part 6

The academy’s plaza was filled with people.

Currently, half a month had already passed since the start of the Entrance Exam. There were frequently people returning with their mission items…

Yet, a frantic figure rushed over at this instant as she exclaimed, “Lord Liu Ye, something terrible has occurred!”

Liu Ye frowned slightly as he looked at the woman walking briskly toward him. He asked indifferently, “What happened?”

Xiao Yu panted heavily as she replied, drenched in sweat, “I was a leader of a team. But they… something happened to them.”

“What?” Liu Ye’s expression turned grim. The reason why the academy dispatched God-king practitioner to be teamed up with the examinees was due to their consideration of the examinees’ safety. Nonetheless, something still happened to them.

“Xiao Yu, slow down your speech and explain it properly!”

Xiao Yu wiped away the perspiration from her chin as she explained miserably, “We met with a demon beast’s group attack along our way in completing our task. There were many God-king experts. I really couldn’t face them so I barely managed to escape to inform you about the situation. As for them…”

A clamour erupted among the crowd abruptly.

Even Xiao Yu barely escaped from the ordeal. How could the rest survive? They must have been killed among the group of demon beasts…

However, seeing Xiao Yu’s tattered appearance with unkempt hair, nobody doubted her words. They could only say that the team was unfortunate to encounter a group of demon beasts…

Liu Ye frowned slightly as he queried, “The God-king demon beasts at the interior of the God Mountain will never team up to attack humans. Yet, how come all of you got attacked by a group of demon beasts?”

Xiao Yu’s mood turned gloomy drastically.

‘It indeed will not be that easy to fool Liu Ye. But so what? I won’t let anyone discover that it was my doing.’

“Lord Liu Ye, it’s all due to Qian Ye.” Xiao Yu pursed her lips tightly as she continued apologetically, “She accidentally mistook the Attracting Beast Powder for the Beast Repellent Powder, luring a group of demon beasts over! Even though she made such a major screw up, I’m also responsible for this incident. I didn’t check their belongings before setting out, leading to such a blunder. Lord Liu Ye, I…”

“Alright, you should be tired. You can go and rest up.” Liu Ye no longer think much about this as he continued, “You aren’t to be blamed for this incident so you don’t need to feel bad. Your relationship to her was rather awkward after all. How could you check their belongings before heading out?”

Xiao Yu lowered her gaze. Her expression was as if she was still lost deeply in her remorse.

“Xiao Yu.” Suddenly, a shadow of a lofty figure shrouded her body from behind. He gently tugged her trembling shoulder toward him as he consoled gently, “It is as what Lord Liu Ye had said. You aren’t to be blamed for this matter. She was the one to bring that Attracting Beast Powder after all. She just reaped what she sowed. No one else should be blamed for this.”

Qi Mo’s heart had already been aching when he looked at Xiao Yu’s guilty appearance.

‘It’s just that Qian Ye’s identity is a little troublesome. If the empire gets enraged regarding this incident, Xiao Yu will be at a disadvantage even if she has a justified stand in this matter.

‘But I will protect my most beloved woman no matter what!’

Xiao Yu’s eyelashes trembled slightly, covering the sinister ray of light in her eyes.

‘It is impossible for those people to return anyways. Who will know that is was all my doings then?”

“The time is up. People that have not shown up will be treated as failing the exam!” Liu Ye glanced lightly through the crowd as he announced coldly and heavily.

Several people, excluding Mu Ru Yue’s team, similarly had failed to accomplish the competition task. There were also incomplete teams present.

Ye Wu Chen was the best example in leaving his team when the competition was still in progress to seek for Mu Ru Yue…
