Chapter 129: Chapter 116: Windwalker·Ji Yan (6000 words)_3

Upon seeing Ye Hanjun, they simultaneously stood up, their faces reflecting strong astonishment.

"Are you the mentor?"

The general raised an eyebrow, very surprised.

"No, I’m an assistant."

Ye Hanjun casually swung the silver triangular emblem in his hand, nodded his thanks at the general, and then soothed a few excited students.

After one night, his four team members were astonishingly the best condition, both in terms of injuries and spirit.

On the line of stretchers, Dong Xuan, Zhi Zhengqing, Wei Hongying, Shen Jiaoyun, Lin Qingyun -- both mentors and three assistants were present.

Though they were not dead, all of them were unconscious, their breath weaker than the other.

Ye Hanjun had an illusion that his currently weak body could sever their breath with just one punch.

"Assistant Han..."

The only assistant who was awake and in good condition was Yingxia.

She remained seated, still perched on the back of the Sun Bird.

Looking at Ye Hanjun, her gaze was filled with repressed sadness and deep complexities.

Before Shen Jiaoyun had fainted, she had already heard.

Ghost Tooth and Ghost Hunt ultimately pursued Ye Hanjun’s group.

They were determined to have Wang Xinfei. Their appearance here was essentially to kidnap Wang Xinfei, all their killings and conflicts revolving around her.

But now, not only was Wang Xinfei alive and well.

Li Jingming, Hu Linlin, and Sun Houbing were also doing just that.

Ye Hanjun - what a tactic!

Yingxia had no idea what he had done specifically.

But looking to both sides, all the members of the sixth squad under Ye Hanjun’s leadership had hidden in caves to avoid risk.

Every student related to Ye Hanjun had an incredibly high survival rate.

Is this the adaptability expected of a 1st Order person when facing such a significant emergency?

As for the role of assistant, it seems that not being "disgraced" would be an achievement, but it seems he’s too good for it...

Sighing lightly and feeling exhausted, Yingxia had no desire to engage in conversation.

Mo Xuan, who was dazed on the sixth stretcher, heard an unusual movement and struggled to sit up.

Upon clearly seeing Wang Xinfei standing unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes rolling and finally fainted.

"Sir, what was the situation in last night’s battle?" Ye Hanjun asked the general.

The general, called Zhao Li, laughed bitterly, shaking his head and sighed,

"It doesn’t look good. That villain is too powerful; even with our superior numbers, we couldn’t stop him, let alone kill him."

"He ran away from one side of the marsh and we chased him for a while, but worried about the trial ground or the base undergoing new changes, we had to turn back to prioritize controlling the situation."

"What happened to his three followers? Ghost Tooth, Ghost Hunt, Ghost Whip. Are they dead or Alive?"

"Ghost Tooth and Ghost Hunt are missing. Some people heard an explosion, but we searched the area and found nothing."

"However, we got the dead body of Ghost Whip."

Pausing for a moment, Zhao Li looked at the unconscious Lin Qingyun with some admiration.

"This Assistant Lin of yours is rather clever."

"He actually came close to counter-killing Ghost Whip with a lower level."

"Later, Mentor Zhi Zhengqing rushed over and lowered Assistant Yingxia from the back of the Magic Giant Eagle. The two assistants managed to kill Ghost Whip together."

"I see."

Ye Hanjun timely revealed a hint of surprise and said thoughtfully:

"Ghost Tooth and Ghost Hunt were first entangled by the wild Rainbow Light Fond Spirit I baited, and then they were blasted by Miss Wang’s treasure."

"At that time, we couldn’t care about anything else. We didn’t dare to look back, only concerned with finding a safe place and clinging to our existence."

"In retrospect, in the best-case scenario, they died on the spot."

"Of course, I bet that they got badly hurt and had to escape as an act of desperation."

"Don’t worry! If they are alive, they won’t be proud for too long!"

Zhao Li touched his amputated arm and sneered, his murderous intent was extremely heavy,

"These evil mercenaries who commit atrocities in hiding, their past killings always happened off our sight."

"Now, he actually dared to lay his hands on Canghai Pavilion, massacring so many students and assistants overnight."

"Including two mentors, they may seem to have survived, but with one losing its Fond Spirit and the other being halved his remaining lifetime, they are destined to be invalids after they recover from their injuries."

"I believe, Canghai Pavilion cannot tolerate such brazen provocation. The senior management must be furious."

"At that time, a 4th Order powerhouse will definitely personally hunt down the remaining members of the Four Ghosts Mercenary Group."

"And the hidden black evil forces in the Blue Frog Kingdom will also face a shuffle very soon, they’ll be returned with the same violence they served. To frighten these nocturnal miscreants, if not, they might fail to understand the value of Canghai Pavilion being one of the five top academies in the Giant Frog Marsh..."

Ye Hanjun cracked a faint smile, seemingly agreeing with Zhao Li’s opinion on the surface.

Deep down though, he wouldn’t consider this external force as his lifeline at all.

The so-called intimidation of petty criminals might be good for the ordinary students.

When heading out to hunt, considering that they were students of Canghai Pavilion, it would, in all probability, reduce the incidence of persecution.

But – even if the Ghost Hand was killed, there would be another group lurking in the background with ill intentions looking at him.

Until the investigation is clear, the only way to feel secure is to strive to become stronger!

...

This marked the end of their conversation.

The base, in essence, did not belong to Canghai Pavilion. It was part of the Blue Frog Kingdom’s military system, responsible for maintaining stability in various regions.
