“Institute Head.”

Inside the house, Gu Chixing hesitated for a while before finally asking tentatively.

“The connection between us and the Wind Sea Institute seems to be a little too deep… The Wind Sea Institute knows very well what the two of us have done. If this situation continues, they might use this against us in the future.”

Gu Chixing seemed worried. “At that time, wouldn’t we become their puppets?”

Yin Qingleng’s eyes turned cold the moment Gu Chixing asked that.

He glanced at Gu Chixing, making Gu Chixing shudder.

“Become their puppets?”

Yin Qingleng was expressionless. “No… I know what they want. As long as we give them a portion of the resources of the Ice Feather Institute in the future, they will be satisfied. The Wind Sea Institute knows very well that once this matter is exposed, it will be a blow to their reputation as well.”

“So, if you and I don’t talk about this, no one will know.”

Yin Qingleng patted Gu Chixing’s shoulder. “Don’t worry.”

“Yes…”

Gu Chixing nodded humbly.

“Go ahead then.”

Yin Qingleng waved his hand, gesturing for Gu Chixing to leave.

Gu Chixing left respectfully and walked out of the house.

The moment Gu Chixing walked out of the house, Yin Qingleng’s expression was suddenly full of murderous intent.

“Gu Chixing will get us into trouble sooner or later with that mental state of his…”

Yin Qingleng muttered to himself, “When everything is settled, I have to deal with him first…”

After Yin Qingleng thought about it, he continued with his work.

After Gu Chixing walked out of Yin Qingleng’s courtyard, Xu Ning also left the roof.

Until now, Yin Qingleng didn’t realize that Xu Ning had overheard his conversation with Gu Chixing.

Xu Ning had already left Yin Qingleng’s courtyard.

‘Since Yin Qingleng wants to use someone else to kill me, I’ll play along…’

Xu Ning already had a plan.

He paused for a moment before chasing after Gu Chixing.

“Instructor Gu.”

Gu Chixing was walking back to his courtyard with a heavy heart when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

Gu Chixing who had been in a daze looked up and saw Xu Ning in front of him.

He was taken aback at first, then he forced out a smile.

“Instructor Xu.”

Gu Chixing responded.

Although the two of them did not belong to the same faction, and they had had a head-on dispute in the past, they still had to maintain their friendly facade.

“Instructor Gu seems to be pondering deeply?”

Xu Ning asked with deep intent.

Gu Chixing’s heart skipped a beat. He was a little flustered, but he quickly calmed down.

“I’m just thinking about something.”

Gu Chixing said casually.

“Where is Instructor Xu going?”

Gu Chixing asked casually and changed the topic.

“I am going to find Instructor Xu. In three days, there are some things I need to do outside, so I hope he can come with me.”

Xu Ning responded without any caution.

“Huh?!”

After hearing Xu Ning’s response, Gu Chixing’s heart trembled again.

‘He’s leaving the Ice Feather Institute?’

Gu Chixing began to think.

According to the plan made by him and Yin Qingleng, he was going to hold a meeting to transfer Xu Ning, Xu Siqi, and Jiang Xu out of the Ice Feather Institute for a mission.

But Xu Ning said that he would take the initiative to go out and even call Xu Siqi to follow him. With Xu Nign taking the initiative to go out, this would save them the trouble of holding a meeting and deliberately transferring them out.

‘It is a little far-fetched to hold a meeting to make them leave the Ice Feather Institute at the current moment. If they are killed outside, then Institute Head and I will be suspected by the other teachers. It seems to be more advantageous for us to let them be the ones to take the initiative to go out.’

Gu Chixing’s brain was spinning.

“Instructor Gu?”

While Gu Chixing was thinking deeply, Xu Ning called out to him.

“Sorry, I was thinking about something…”

Gu Chixing quickly said, “Since you are going to find Instructor Xu, I won’t waste your time. Goodbye…”

Gu Chixing quickly left.

As for Xu Ning, his mouth curved into a smile.

Instead of waiting passively, it was better to take the proactive side.

Thereafter, Xu Ning rushed back to Jiang Xu’s study.

On the other side, Gu Chixing stopped and returned after leaving Xu Ning’s sight.

The plan had changed into their favor. He was going to find Yin Qingleng and discuss his plan in advance.

In Jiang Xu’s study

“Xu Ning, why are you back?”

Jiang Xu was a little surprised to see Xu Ning return.

At this moment, Lu Wang and Xu Siqi had already left.

“Brother Jiang, I met Gu Chixing just now, and I secretly followed behind him to Yin Qingleng’s courtyard.”

Xu Ning quickly said, “I restrained my aura and secretly heard the conversation between Yin Qingleng and Gu Chixing.”

“Oh?”

Jiang Xu saw Xu Ning’s serious expression and asked, “Did you hear any important news?”

Xu Ning nodded.

Afterwards, he told them about the connection between Yin Qingleng, Gu Chixing, and the Wind Sea Institute. He also told them about the death of the Old Institute Head and their assassination plan.

“Xu Ning, are you sure you heard it correctly?”

Jiang Xu stared at Xu Ning, his whole body trembling.

It was not that he didn’t trust Xu Ning, but this news had shocked him greatly.

Jiang Xu felt his head was exploding and his chest felt suffocated.

“Yes.”

Xu Ning didn’t say anything long-winded, he just responded affirmatively.

Pak!

Jiang Xu slammed the table, causing it to explode into pieces.

“Yin Qingleng, Gu Chixing!!”

Jiang Xu’s eyes were full of murderous intent and hatred.

According to what they said before, the Old Institute Head’s death was due to the backlash from cultivating a profound arcane technique.

But in reality, he was plotted against and assassinated.

This was unacceptable to Jiang Xu.

“We have to kill them!”

Jiang Xu growled.

“Brother Jiang, calm down first.”

Xu Ning said, “I have already set a trap for Gu Chixing. In three days, Instructor Xu and I will act as bait and kill the ambushers. I will try my best to capture them alive and bring them back to the Ice Feather Institute to reveal the true faces of Yin Qingleng and Gu Chixing.”

“That’s right.”

Jiang Xu calmed down. “We must expose their crimes and let them be punished by everyone!”

Jiang Xu was full of hatred, but he also knew that he couldn’t take revenge casually, otherwise he might fall into a passive state.

“Xu Ning, are you confident in dealing with the assassins?”

Jiang Xu asked, “If you are not confident, we can lie low for a while. There is no need to risk our lives for this.”

“Don’t worry.”

Xu Ning said, “I’m confident.”

With Xu Ning’s current combat power, even a rank six arcanist could not kill him and he could easily escape.

And in Yin Qingleng’s assassination plan, the probability of the Wind Sea Institute sending a rank six arcanist was basically zero.
