Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Fist Technique Deduction
Chapter 261 - 31: Return

Chapter 261: Chapter 31: Return

Refraction lineage, Vice Dean Ning’s study.

Ning Guisheng looked at Jiang Dazhu, who had just returned. His face showed continued surprise: "Old Jiang, is there something that wasn’t explained clearly?"

Jiang Dazhu’s expression bore a few traces of murderous intent: "Dean Ning, I just got a piece of news. We have the opportunity to kill Lin Yuan and severely damage the Longbrow!"

Ning Guisheng’s face grew solemn as he stood up and approached: "What’s going on?"

They had just been ready to give up on targeting Lin Yuan. How could there be another chance now?

Jiang Dazhu let out a cold laugh: "What if Lin Yuan is involved with the Qu Xiang Sect? Should he live or die?"

Ning Guisheng was momentarily stunned, then exclaimed: "You mean Lin Yuan is a spy for the Qu Xiang Sect? Hiding his identity to cause chaos?"

"Not yet confirmed," Jiang Dazhu shook his head, pondering for a while before his eyes gleamed fiercely: "But even if he’s not, we must make it true for him!"

"Explain in detail," Ning Guisheng instantly understood the plan. Yet forcing such an identity carried some risk.

Jiang Dazhu leaned close to Ning Guisheng’s ear and whispered: "Just now, a disciple from the Martial Academy escaped from Black Dragon Pool, saying that Lin Yuan disguised his identity and forcibly killed He Run and Shen Shuyan in the area around Black Dragon Pool."

Upon hearing this, Ning Guisheng frowned immediately: "Lin Yuan killed He Run?"

"After that disciple woke up, He Run’s body was nowhere to be seen. But before he lost consciousness, he heard Lin Yuan admit his intention to kill He Run," Jiang Dazhu said coldly. "It’s unexpected how ruthless this kid is, even with those of the same sect. Now He Run is missing, dead or missing."

"Then, with this witness, we can make the case that Lin Yuan killed He Run. Moreover, we can label him with the Qu Xiang Sect. No matter how talented he is, no one can protect him."

Ning Guisheng’s eyes flashed with a dark light upon hearing this: "This plan is excellent."

"Just now, news came that Lin Yuan entered the Elder Council’s attention and was listed as a reserve seed. Now is the time to completely eliminate him in one move; otherwise, the consequences will be endless."

******************

On the second day.

At this time, Lin Yuan had already returned to the government office building.

After taking a tour around the Black Dragon Pool with Qi Yu, they parted.

He had already fully accumulated his vital energy.

"If I could get the second divine map, my cultivation speed could go to another level," Lin Yuan sighed quietly in his chamber.

But the news of defeating He Run must have already spread within the Martial Academy. With his talent, his master surely wouldn’t be stingy in ensuring his cultivation resources.

Moreover, through the offerings from a few towns around Black Dragon Pool, he was not lacking in alchemical materials, but what he truly lacked were higher-grade elixirs.

While Lin Yuan was still pondering, Qiao Yuanjing knocked on the door: "Sir, the Martial Academy has sent a letter for you to review."

With a creak.

Lin Yuan opened the door and took the letter handed over by Qiao Yuanjing.

A glance at the letter’s content brought a slight smile to Lin Yuan’s face.

The content was mostly as he expected; his master indeed wanted to summon him again, requesting him to return to the academy.

"Supervisor Qiao, prepare the carriage and horses. I need to go back to the Martial Academy."

Lin Yuan stepped forward, heading straight ahead.

After about half an incense stick’s time, Lin Yuan stepped into a luxurious carriage pulled by three strong horses.

The driver cracked the whip, and the sturdy horses lifted their hooves, heading towards the academy.

**************

Meanwhile, on a certain official road, a very ordinary carriage was moving slowly towards the Martial Academy.

He Run’s face was pale, still filled with lingering fears from that moment.

Beside him, Shen Shuyan also sighed: "I didn’t expect Lin Yuan to have such an open mind. At the time, I mistook that person for Lin Yuan when the attack happened, but it turned out that the person was actually the Qu Xiang Sect’s Incense Guide."

He Run’s expression also turned slightly bitter: "Indeed, we underestimated Lin Yuan. Not only is he exceptionally talented, but his scheming is also extremely astute. We thought we were certain of controlling the situation at Black Dragon Pool, but he broke it with only two moves, and even saw through the attempt to use his name to come kill us."

"Lin Yuan is first-rate in both talent and intelligence. Given some more time to train, he could be another Lu Rong."

Shen Shuyan remained silent.

But He Run seemed to be talking to himself: "I’ve already sent a letter to the Martial Academy. From now on, I plan to withdraw from the struggle between the Refraction and Cloud-Hidden lineages. Facing someone like Lin Yuan, I am scared! Junior Brother, you may not know that feeling of helplessness; looking back now, I still feel frightened."

It was as if Lin Yuan’s means had extinguished all his fighting spirit; He Run’s tone was calm yet desolate.

Shen Shuyan nodded silently, feeling empathetic.

"Calculating the days, we should be able to return to the Martial Academy in about two more days," He Run took a deep breath, shaking off his gloom.

After all, he was ranked in the top hundred disciples of the Martial Academy. Being defeated by Lin Yuan, his mindset adjusted quickly.

Just as the two were in silence, a figure quietly landed in front of their carriage.

Lifting the curtain, when he saw the two in the carriage, the person slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

He Run and Shen Shuyan, who were just meditating, sensed the person’s aura, opened their eyes, and said, "Senior Brother Guo!"

The newcomer was none other than the renowned expert of the Refraction lineage, Guo Wanxu, ranked thirty-third in the Martial Academy.

The person’s face was shadowy, with sunken eyes, and his hooked nose gave an impression of deep scheming.

Seeing the two were indeed seriously wounded, Guo Wanxu entered the carriage and asked: "How are your injuries?"

"Many of the internal meridians are shattered, but after returning to the academy and resting, they should recover," He Run coughed and replied.

Guo Wanxu frowned at this: "The news of Lin Yuan defeating you has spread within the Martial Academy. There were also members of the Qu Xiang Sect attempting to assassinate, aiming to provoke conflict between the Refraction and Cloud-Hidden lineages. It’s truly insidious."

Guo Wanxu stepped forward, inspecting the injuries of the two: "After you sent the letter to the academy, the lineage master sent me to meet you so you wouldn’t be ambushed again."

After checking their injuries, Guo Wanxu felt reassured and asked: "Is Lin Yuan’s strength really that great? Capable of breaking even your trump card, Starfall Cocoon Prison?"

He Run heard this and once again smiled bitterly: "Senior Brother Guo, you may not know. I felt Lin Yuan hadn’t gathered as many meridians as I have, yet his vital energy was as majestic as the blazing sun, vast and boundless. I couldn’t resist at all, and he seemed almost on the verge of entering the second realm. In the end, when he used his trump card, I couldn’t resist at all."

"Hmm," Guo Wanxu nodded, asking again: "Tell me about your encounter."

He Run nodded and recounted all the details truthfully.

"The one who ambushed you was indeed from the Qu Xiang Sect? Not Lin Yuan?"

Guo Wanxu confirmed once more.

He Run was taken aback by this.

What does this mean?

He had clearly stated earlier that it was Lin Yuan who had saved them both, even arranging the carriage to secretly bring them back to the academy.

Why did Guo Wanxu say that?

He Run hesitated: "Senior Brother Guo, that person was indeed the Qu Xiang Sect’s Incense Guide. If it weren’t for Lin Yuan’s rescue, we might not have been able to see you."

Guo Wanxu slowly shook his head, leaving He Run and Shen Shuyan bewildered.

Then Guo Wanxu revealed a cold look in his eyes: "Junior Brothers, it was indeed Lin Yuan who killed you both, and also."

A sudden burst of vital energy erupted around Guo Wanxu.

The expressions of He Run and Shen Shuyan drastically changed: "Senior Brother Guo, what are you doing? We’re from the same lineage!"

"No, Junior Brother He," Guo Wanxu slightly raised the corners of his mouth: "It’s unfortunate that Lin Yuan was so ruthless, leaving you two neither dead nor alive!"

"The lineage master will avenge you both!"

Guo Wanxu suddenly erupted.
