Su Pei wrote a message and secretly passed it to the youth who came with Li Lanfeng. The youth looked at the message, and his expression immediately changed. He went onto the stage and whispered something to Li Lanfeng. Then, he left.
Li Lanfeng continued smiling on stage, as if unaffected by the message. "Do you guys mind if I go and have some water? I have been speaking for quite a while now."
"No problem!" The scouts below shouted simultaneously.
Li Lanfeng's lecture was very interesting. Sometimes, he would talk about the funny things that happened at the First Men's Military Academy and the 23rd division. All the scouts listened to him happily. In the past, Li Lanfeng was just a legend of the Azure Central Scout Academy. He was someone their teachers always asked them to look up too. Now, Li Lanfeng became a well-respected senior in the eyes of many as he was no longer someone who only existed in their imagination. Many scouts had made a decision that day. No matter which academy they went to in the future, they would apply to the 23rd division after they had graduated. They wanted to be in the same division as Li Lanfeng.
Also, there was Ling Xiao, the ultimate idol of the military. These two people made the scouts in the Azure Central Scout Academy even more curious about the 23rd division.The moment Li Lanfeng walked down the stage, he asked Li Shiyu to bring Su Pei to the side entrance of the stage situated outside the great hall.
Su Pei quickly told Li Lanfeng what had happened in the forest. Li Lanfeng wasn't surprised as he was already informed by Ling Lan. He lowered his voice and replied, "Don't worry, I'll contact my division immediately and ask them to send a rescue team."
Su Pei nodded. He started to feel less worried. He knew that it was not possible to save Xiao Yiqiu with just themselves. They would not be able to win against frightening domain realm masters.
Li Lanfeng asked Su Pei to return to the great hall and wait for news. Then, he contacted the headquarters of the 23rd division and told them what had happened. After he finished explaining everything, he went into a daze. Li Shiyu didn't want to talk to his cousin but he didn't like the helpless expression on his face too. He thought for a while and finally said, "What happened?"
"I can only report and not participate when I meet such a situation. I'm useless." Li Lanfeng lowered his head and clenched his fist tightly. Why couldn't he catch up with him? He could only watch him fight alone.
Li Shiyu went silent for a few seconds. He said, "Be stronger then!" Their Boss's opponents were getting stronger but, they could only stand at the side and watch him. This sense of helplessness made them uncomfortable.
"You will help me, right?" Li Lanfeng looked at Li Shiyu hopefully.Li Shiyu turned and replied coldly, "I'm not helping you. I just can't bear to see our regiment commander standing alone."
Li Lanfeng smiled. His younger brother replied harshly but he still had a soft heart. Li Lanfeng was grateful. "Thank you, Shiyu."
Li Shiyu got a little furious. "I said I'm not helping because of you. It's for our regiment commander. Why are you thanking me?" He angrily returned to the great hall. He had not forgiven his eldest cousin brother yet. A 'thank you' was not enough to buy him over.
Boom! A loud noise was heard. A school building near them was smashed by something. The noise alerted all the students in the great hall, and they immediately rushed out of the great hall.
"What happened?"
"Ah, something seems to have smashed into the roof of that building."
"What is it?"
"What is happening?"
Li Shiyu silently moved beside Li Lanfeng. He asked in a low voice, "What did you see?"
"Ice," Li Lanfeng replied with a stern face. He saw it a glimpse of it.
"You mean our Boss?" Li Shiyu was shocked.
"Let's go and take a look." Li Lanfeng moved his body and arrived at the building.
"Wait!" A teacher who had arrived before them shouted.
Li Lanfeng frowned. However, he didn't stop. "Teacher, what happened here?"
"An unidentified object fell onto this building just now. We have made arrangements for someone to inspect the building so don't go in first. We don't want to destroy the evidence left at the scene," the teacher replied seriously.
Li Lanfeng nodded. Li Shiyu quickly pulled Li Lanfeng. He didn't understand why Li Lanfeng gave up so easily.
Li Lanfeng whispered, "With our Boss's ability, he wouldn't be the one who got thrown there. It might be his opponent."
Li Shiyu was enlightened. To fight with their boss like that, that person must be a domain realm master. They would not be able to deal with him. If they went in and got taken as hostages…
Li Lanfeng was thinking about the same thing so he brought Li Shiyu back. Since they couldn't help their Boss, they must not create trouble for her.
Soon, news came back that there was nothing there. The hole seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Many people saw the damaged terrain in the forest, arising a huge commotion in the academy. Many teachers turned serious. Damaging a terrain to this scale would definitely need a person who was much stronger than them. They were just at the Qi-Jin stage, what could they do if they met a domain realm master. What on earth happened here? Who came to their school and created this mess?
Li Lanfeng looked at the debris in the forest. He thought for a moment and decided to send Ling Lan a message. If Ling Lan was safe, she should be able to receive his message.
In her room, Ling Lan asked Little Four to message Li Lanfeng immediately when Little Four told her that Li Lanfeng was looking for her. If Li Lanfeng looked for her at this time, it must be something important. This was why she went back to her room when she had the chance to.
Li Lanfeng was relieved to know that Ling Lan was safe. He told Ling Lan what Su Pei told him. Ling Lan frowned. She knew that she had saved Xiao Yiqiu. If Xiao Yiqiu was still not back, it must be because he met someone from the organization again.
"Boss, what do we do now? Are we going there again?" Little Four asked.
"Firstly, what is the plan of the Federation?" She had sent that information to the Federation already. By now, they should have started to move.
Thus, it was not a good time for her to go out now. Additionally, Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran were still here. She didn't know if they would suddenly look for her. Also, all the students and teachers in school were currently paying attention to the forest now. The organization should have realized the wood element titled domain realm master was dead by now and would have strengthened their security.
Ling Lan didn't want to expose herself in this mission. She didn't want to have anything to do with the Flying Dragon Special Forces and didn't want to endanger her comrades.
The Azure Central Scout Academy was just the surface level of the organization, one could imagine how deep their hands had gotten into, as there was a half step imperial level domain expert guarding the organization. There were also many fake domain realm masters who were created. This organization was too scary. If they knew that she was the person who leaked the information, she believed that this organization, which conducted human experiments and performed many illegal actions, would kill her comrades and everybody close to her.
"The order has been given. They will attack at 2 pm tomorrow." Little Four managed to decipher the message from the military headquarters quickly.
"There is less than 24 hours left. Let's see if Xiao Yiqiu is lucky enough." Xiao Yiqiu was an acquaintance of hers. She was not going to risk the safety of her friends just because of him.
Time passed by slowly. The divisions that were based near Planet Azure sent their domain realm masters over. As time was tight, only less than 30 domain realm masters came. The commander-in-chief received intel that their opponent had a titled domain realm formidable warrior. Without one on their side, he could only be worried. He hoped that the intel he received was accurate, that the ice element titled domain realm formidable warrior was on their side and not just a passer-by.
Finally, the time for the attack came. When the Federation entered the grounds of the Azure Central Scout Academy, they realized that they were trapped in a difficult position.
The Federation attacked suddenly so they managed to catch their opponent off guard and controlled most of the school. However, the organization had made preparations for such situations. When they realized they were being attacked, the spies disguised as teachers from the organization kidnapped a portion of the students as their hostages. Coincidentally, the special class 2 was part of the hostages.
The teachers who kidnapped the students were not Qi-Jin masters. They were domain realm masters. Although they were fake domain realm masters, they overpowered the hostages using numbers. The domain realm masters from the Federation were not afraid of the fake domain realm masters, but they didn't dare to act rashly because of the hostages.
The people in the headquarters received the news of the attack, so they quickly came out of the forest. Very soon, more than 30 fake domain realm masters had gathered together. The people from the military cursed when they saw the number of fake domain realm masters. They made it seem as though domain realm masters could be made in a factory. What would those domain realm masters who worked so hard to reach their current status think about this?
Ling Lan squatted among the scouts while covering her head with her hands. Her entire body was trembling.
Mu Chaoran couldn't bear to see him like this so he comforted him. "Little Brother Shaoyun, don't worry. We are here."
"Yes, don't worry. We will ensure your safety." Tang Ningyu added on. If he could, he wished that Pei Shaoyun would not experience these things. He didn't want to taint his pure heart.
Ling Lan looked at them pitifully. "Are we really fine?"
Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran nodded at the same time. They comforted him with their gazes.
"Stop talking. If not, I will kill you all." The domain realm master heard the commotion there and threatened them.
Ling Lan looked down hurriedly as if she was afraid her little life would be taken away. A killing intent flashed past Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran's eyes. How dare he scare their Little Brother Shaoyun. He is looking for death!
