Chapter 791
Chapter 791
Inside a secluded palace.
Rao Shichuan, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes in shock.
"This voice … Could it be him?"
Rao Shichuan mumbled to himself, his face darkening.
In the next moment, he turned into a flash of blue light and flew out.
"There's an enemy attack! The enemy is attacking!"
Inside the Demon-Free Academy, people shouted and ran back and forth.
The protective array around the academy was activated.
Outside the enchantment shield, another layer of protection appeared. It was pitch-black and had armor-like patterns on it, protecting the entire academy.
"Dean!"
Along the way, many people felt Rao Shichuan's aura and bowed.
Rao Shichuan was in no mood to care. He came to the edge of the academy and looked outside the protective array.
He was surrounded by elite soldiers of the imperial family. They were well-equipped and skilled in formations.
On top of these soldiers, a dark-skinned elder floated. His face was dark and cold, and his eerie red eyes made people feel extremely dangerous.
"It really is you."
Rao Shichuan looked at the dark-skinned elder and exclaimed in shock.
"You're finally willing to come out, Rao Shichuan."
The dark-skinned middle-aged man, Yun Hong, stared at Rao Shichuan coldly. After a while, a terrifying murderous intent spread from his body.
The soldiers nearby were frightened. It was as if they were standing on the edge of a cliff. Their bodies trembled.
"I didn't expect you to come personally."
Rao Shichuan sighed, his heart sinking.
"Dean, who is this?"
A teacher nearby asked.
From Rao Shichuan's expression, the enemy this time was extraordinarily powerful.
"This person was the top genius of the Yun Tribe five hundred years ago. Not only was his bloodline extremely pure, but his bloodline also mutated during a fortuitous encounter."
Rao Shichuan gave a simple explanation, as if he didn't want to say more.
In reality, when Rao Shichuan was young, he had a good relationship with Yun Hong. Both of them were geniuses who stood at the top of the Yun Zhao Nation.
Yun Hong's fortuitous encounter should have been his.
But Yun Hong used despicable means to take it away.
Perhaps out of guilt, Yun Hong let Rao Shichuan go, and the two never saw each other again.
From Rao Shichuan's simple words, the people nearby knew that the dark-skinned middle-aged man was not simple.
Apart from that, the pressure and sense of danger that the dark-skinned middle-aged man gave them were completely different from the previous enemies.
At this moment, Yun Hong gave the order, "Attack!"
"Kill!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers launched an attack on the Demon-Free Academy's protective array.
"Counterattack!"
Rao Shichuan also gave the order.
The grand protective spell formation of the Demon-Free Academy could be divided into countless connected smaller spell formations, some of which could be used to switch between offense and defense.
A portion of the armor patterns around the formation suddenly opened up, and a saber, sword, spear, and other weapons that were dozens of feet long extended out.
These weapons were pitch-black in color and were formed by the power of dozens of people gathered in the formation!
A fierce battle ensued between the two sides.
"Rao Shichuan, I advise you not to struggle pointlessly. Give up as soon as possible and submit to the Imperial Family and the Holy Land. That is the wise move. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
Yun Hong stood proudly in the air with his hands behind his back. The demeanor of a powerhouse was on full display. His words and posture were filled with absolute confidence.
"Impossible!"
Rao Shichuan spat out these three words resolutely.
Yun Hong was not surprised. He shook his head slightly with a look of pity. Then, he smiled. "Do you want to know why you only noticed us when we attacked the entrance of the Demon-Free Academy?"
Inside the formation, the faces of the higher-ups of the academy darkened. They were indeed puzzled but did not know the reason.
But they did not want to know the reason from the enemy.
"Because the hidden sentries that you set up in the Ghostfog Forest were too weak. They were all killed before they could discover us."
Yun Hong revealed a mocking expression.
"That's impossible. The academy is surrounded by hidden sentries. How could you kill all of them alone?!"
A branch dean rebuked angrily. He felt that Yun Hong said this on purpose to scare them.
"Did I say that I was the only one?"
The mocking expression on Yun Hong's face became even more intense.
Suddenly.
Three figures dashed out from the surrounding soldiers. They were wearing the same tight-fitting black clothes with a circle embroidered with a golden dragon inside.
The moment they saw this symbol, the higher-ups of the academy blurted out, "The Sacred Dragon Guards!"
It was said that the current Sacred Emperor had ten Sacred Dragon Guards. Their daily necessities were all under their protection. All assassins would be intercepted and killed by them.
They were all elites at the Sky Sea realm. They were good at concealment, infiltration, and assassination. They had rich combat experience.
With these three Sacred Dragon Guards and Yun Hong himself, they could indeed wipe out all the hidden sentries in the Poisonous Creature Forest!
The moment the three Sacred Dragon Guards appeared, they joined the attack.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
A loud sound rang out around the formation, and the formation trembled slightly.
"I didn't expect the imperial family to send not only you but also three Sacred Dragon Guards!"
Yun Hong's expression was ugly, and his face became even paler.
"Hurry up and call Chen Yu and the Deputy Dean!"
He secretly instructed the others.
It had been a while since the enemy appeared, but Chen Yu had yet to appear. He might have encountered some situation.
However, the enemy was too strong. They needed Chen Yu to act. Otherwise, their chances of victory were slim.
In addition, even the Deputy Dean, Yi Lantian, did not appear.
"You don't have to think about it. The other resistance forces will quickly rush over to support us. This time, we rushed over in secret. It will probably be some time before they receive the news."
Yun Hong said again.
In the past, when the imperial family attacked, they would use the teleportation formation to rush over.
When the other resistance forces received the news, they would come to support them. They would attack from the front and back, causing the imperial family's encirclement to fail.
However, this time, they had rushed over, so it took some time.
"It seems that this time, you plan to completely destroy the Demon-Free Academy."
Rao Shichuan had a bitter expression.
This time, the imperial family's preparations were too ample. They were caught off guard.
Inside the academy.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two figures flew into the depths. One went to call the Deputy Dean, and the other went to call Chen Yu.
"What's wrong with Senior Chen? Why hasn't he appeared yet? Is he afraid? "
As one of the male students thought to himself, the perfect image of Chen Yu in his heart started showing flaws.
Suddenly, he felt something cold on his neck. He reached out and touched it.
"Blood!"
He cried out in surprise, but no sound came out.
Plop!
As soon as he fell to the ground, a black figure scuttled over and took his body away. The blood on the ground was wiped away.
The entire process was extremely fast and clean. No one noticed it.
"Chen Yu, I'm afraid you didn't expect that I would sneak into the academy to assassinate you."
The black figure came to a corner, changed into the academy's uniform, and walked out openly.
He had short green hair, an oval face, and was slightly handsome.
Whoosh!
He went straight to Chen Yu's residence.
"Senior Chen, the enemy is attacking. The Dean asks for your help."
He shouted loudly from afar with a panicked expression on his face.
However, when he got close to Chen Yu's residence, the green-haired guard's body suddenly froze.
With Chen Yu's residence as the center, a violent and heavy demonic aura spread over a radius of a hundred feet.
"What a terrifying aura!"
The green-haired guard's gaze was fixed on Chen Yu's residence.
He had been curious as to why Chen Yu had not appeared. At this moment, he finally knew that Chen Yu seemed to be on the verge of breaking through.
However, this was not a cultivation breakthrough. If he stopped at any time, there would not be any serious consequences.
Therefore, the green-haired guard did not take the opportunity to attack. Instead, he waited quietly outside Chen Yu's residence!
At the same time, he occasionally shouted to let Chen Yu know that there were people outside. When he came out later, he would not be too wary.
Buzz buzz!
There was a strange force field around Chen Yu's residence. Demonic qi howled here, and it was extremely heavy, making it difficult for people to breathe.
After a while, the green-haired guard retreated a distance and said with lingering fear, "This is too terrifying. This kid should have broken through at the body-tempering level, but why is he giving off such a terrifying aura?"
At the start, the green-haired guard was very confident.
He was ranked third among the ten Sacred Dragon Guards, and his cultivation was at the peak early-stage Void Sea realm.
This was why Yun Hong sent him to infiltrate the academy and assassinate Chen Yu.
But now, he suddenly felt a little unsure.
At this moment, the oppressive demonic pressure in the surroundings suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Then, the door to Chen Yu's residence opened, and the surrounding array formation protection disappeared at the same time.
"Senior Chen, there are enemies attacking. The dean wants you to go and help."
The green-haired guard pretended to be a student without demonic qi and urged anxiously.
"Got it."
Chen Yu replied calmly and flew up.
"He is so lax … This is a good chance!"
The green-haired guard had been observing Chen Yu and found that he was very lazy and casual, full of loopholes.
Boom!
The green-haired guard's Quintessential Essence suddenly exploded, and he seemed to turn into a ferocious wolf as he pounced at Chen Yu.
A black dagger appeared in his hand. It shone with a cold black light, and it quickly slashed through the void, leaving a black afterimage.
The green-haired guard's attack was lightning fast. The dagger in his hand seemed to be able to cut through everything as it slashed at Chen Yu's neck!
Puchi!
In the void, a black arc suddenly appeared and slashed at Chen Yu's neck.
"Got it!"
The green-haired guard was ecstatic.
He had assassinated many people in the past, but he did not feel much of a sense of accomplishment after succeeding. But this time, he was very happy.
"Eh … It seems that I am too lax!"
Chen Yu was a little surprised to hear this.
Ever since he returned to the Great Cosmos Realm, he had been very relaxed.
At least, Chen Yu believed that there was nothing in the Demonic Academy that could threaten him. Since that was the case, there was no need to be nervous.
"That's right, you are indeed too lax."
The green-haired guard revealed a triumphant expression and was prepared to give Chen Yu another fatal blow.
But he suddenly discovered that the wound he had just left was rapidly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Seeing that the wound was about to completely heal, the green-haired guard's mind was in turmoil. He was horrified, unable to believe everything in front of him.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
He hurriedly waved the dagger in his hand and drew two cold black arcs!
Ding! Ding!
There was only the sound of metal being cut and sparks flying. Chen Yu was unharmed.
Just now, Chen Yu had been lax, allowing the green-haired guard to succeed.
But this time, he activated the Enigma Fiend Body.
After advancing to the peak of the mid-stage, the Enigma Fiend Body's defensive power was extremely terrifying. The green-haired guard's all-out attack did not even leave a trace.
"Are you tickling me?"
Chen Yu turned to look at the green-haired guard with a teasing smile.
