Yang Junming messaged him, "Are you free to come back to Ziwei Academy for a bit?"
Zhou Yan happened to have nothing to do and was very curious about why Yang Junming wanted to see him.
He quickly replied, "Yes, I'm free."
"Then come back first. After you come out, just come directly to me."
"Okay," Zhou Yan replied.
He still had some time. After attending to his territory's affairs, he first returned to Ziwei Academy. He found everything in his residence to be in order, with no traps triggered. He felt relieved.
After leaving the villa, he walked directly towards his mentor's residence.
However, the moment he stepped out of the villa, he noticed he was being watched, and it seemed many people were observing him. Da Feng Novel Network.
"These guys still aren't giving up, huh?"
He pretended to be nonchalant and walked outside, but his mind was already prepared for defense.
As he walked out, several people approached him. He felt a sense of danger, as if some peril was about to befall him.
He was very confident in his danger perception.
Without hesitation, he took out a top-tier Instant Scroll and used it. His body turned into a streak of light, vanishing from his original spot.
The very instant Zhou Yan transformed into light, three people threw several jade-like objects towards Zhou Yan.
The three men sneered as they watched Zhou Yan, but their expressions froze shortly after. The person was gone.
However, the moment they made their move, others also acted.
The items thrown by the three men were quickly retrieved by several suddenly appearing men in black before they could take effect, and were thrown into an unknown space.
Then, simultaneously, several more people quickly appeared behind the three men, knocked them unconscious, and took them away.
Yang Junming watched Zhou Yan suddenly disappear and was stunned. He said to Chu Luoyan beside him, "Elder Chu, look at this kid. He's more cunning than a monkey. He actually used a spatial scroll to escape. We were worried for nothing."
Chu Luoyan's expression remained unchanged. Inwardly, she was surprised by Zhou Yan's reaction. This young fellow's reaction speed was quite impressive.
"I'll handle the subsequent matters. You don't need to worry," Chu Luoyan said and then vanished before Yang Junming.
Leng Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I was so worried. You definitely didn't tell Zhou beforehand that he was to be used as bait, did you?"
"How could I? They firmly told me not to tell Zhou Yan. I just didn't expect this kid to be as fast as a rabbit. I wonder where he was teleported to."
"No one expected him to possess an RRR-grade spatial scroll. Spatial scrolls below RRR grade are completely unusable in Ziwei Academy," Yang Junming said, also surprised.
"That kid is mysterious. With such a top-tier teleportation scroll, I'm not surprised at all," Leng Yue replied.
Yang Junming smiled and said to Zhou Yan, "Where did you run off to, kid?"
Zhou Yan heard this and thought, "Teacher Yang Junming's words are strange. How did he know he disappeared? Was he there the whole time?"
He looked at his surroundings and replied, "I don't know where I am, but Teacher Yang, do you have an explanation for calling me out here?"
"There's nothing much to explain. It's just that those who were secretly plotting against you have become impatient. I just received the principal's order and learned that you have all been targeted by a group of people."
Yang Junming began to explain.
"Couldn't you have notified me in advance to prepare? Using me as bait like this is too much!" Zhou Yan complained, displeased.
"We wanted to test your response ability along the way. Who knew you'd be so cunning?"
"Besides, with so many of us here, what trouble could those people stir up? The net is closing now. You should go out less, as there might still be some escaped fish." Yang Junming reminded him.
Zhou Yan carefully surveyed his surroundings and then noticed a stone tablet. He asked, "Teacher Yang Junming, do you know what the Soul Refining Land is?"
Yang Junming's heart sank upon hearing this. He exclaimed, "Damn it! How did you get there! That's not a place you can withstand right now. Don't move rashly. I'll go find the principal. You really know how to stir up trouble."
Zhou Yan heard this and felt his life was in danger again. He was about to take out another item.
To his surprise, he found he had lost contact with his territory.
Zhou Yan: Σ(ﾟдﾟlll)
"The Soul Refining Land!" Leng Yue immediately asked, "Don't tell me that kid was teleported there!"
"You guessed right. That kid was indeed teleported there," Yang Junming said with a troubled expression.
Leng Yue also looked speechless and said, "That's where the Enforcement Elder resides. I heard the Enforcement Elder doesn't even pay much attention to the Sect Master."
"We can't just abandon him! My student absolutely cannot die." Yang Junming quickly transmitted a message to young Wu Qingfeng, "Principal, a small accident has occurred..."
"Is that kid Zhou Yan dead?" Wu Qingfeng quickly asked.
"Not exactly. It's just that the kid used an RRR-grade spatial scroll and was teleported to the Soul Refining Land," Yang Junming replied immediately.
"As long as he's not dead," Wu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he straightened his expression and urgently asked, "What? That kid was teleported to the Soul Refining Land!"
"Yes, Principal. Perhaps you should go personally to retrieve him?" Yang Junming suggested.
Wu Qingfeng was silent for a moment, then asked, "Isn't Chu Luoyan by your side? Asking her to fetch him would be more effective than me."
Yang Junming was speechless. This was the first time he had learned that Elder Chu Luoyan had dealings with the Enforcement Elder.
That was an iron-fisted individual, said to be two generations senior to the Sect Master. Yang Junming even heard that when Sect Master Wu Qingfeng was a student, he was personally locked up by the Enforcement Elder, which spoke volumes about how old this Enforcement Elder was.
"Elder Chu Luoyan is already apprehending the remnants of the spies," Yang Junming replied.
"Then you go beg her yourself. I'm tired. That's all," Wu Qingfeng flicked his hand and closed the communication channel with Yang Junming, setting himself to busy.
Yang Junming was speechless. What a mess.
Leng Yue quickly asked, "The Principal isn't going to abandon him, is he?"
Yang Junming stared blankly at Leng Yue and said, "Can you guess correctly every time?"
"Then Zhou Yan is doomed," Leng Yue suddenly became worried.
"Not doomed, but how to get him out..."
Yang Junming was in a headache. Should he go to demand his release?
What a joke. If it were an ordinary correctional facility, it might be manageable, but the Soul Refining Land was directly controlled by the Enforcement Elder.
To directly ask the Enforcement Elder for a person!
Was he tired of living?
"It seems I can only go beg Elder Chu Luoyan. It's a shame she doesn't add anyone as a friend; I can't even contact her," Yang Junming said helplessly.
Leng Yue heard this and said, "Uh, I have Elder Chu Luoyan's contact information."
Yang Junming: "(˘•w•˘)"
If she weren't certain that Chu Luoyan could bring Zhou Yan out, Leng Yue would never have taken the initiative to message Chu Luoyan.
The title "Phantom Night Rakshasa" was not for nothing. She was not an easy person to deal with.
"Elder Chu Luoyan, Zhou Yan has been teleported to the Soul Refining Land." With a heavy heart, Leng Yue sent a message to Chu Luoyan.
Leng Yue and Yang Junming stood there, waiting anxiously for a response.
One minute... five minutes... ten minutes.
"I think it's no use," Leng Yue replied.
"I refuse to believe the principal would really let Zhou Yan die there," Yang Junming said.
But he couldn't afford to gamble.
In fact, the principal would definitely not stand by and watch. He had immediately instructed Feng Yu to contact Chu Luoyan and ask her to help retrieve Zhou Yan from the Enforcement Elder.
"Why does this guy have such bad luck? Anywhere else would have been fine, but he had to go there."
Feng Yu was also shocked upon hearing that Zhou Yan had been teleported to the Soul Refining Land.
