Chapter 793 - Paraded Out
Chapter 793: Paraded Out
Xiao Luo led Ghost and the Duck Emperor onto a deserted mountain. He looked around. Though it was a dense forest, he noticed many trails created by frequent foot traffic.
If Xiao Luo had not seen the ancient architecture outside but only saw the forest, he would have thought it was the mountain behind his university. Both places had a lot in common—the quietness and the sound of tweeting birds. He used to spend a lot of time with Zhao Mengqi strolling on that mountain when they were in love until they saw a used condom there. Ever since then, they had never gone back there again. The condom seemed to create a psychological barrier for them.
Rumor had it on the Internet that mountains behind many universities were great places for sex. He had never expected it to be accurate and that their university was one of those universities.
While he was deep in thought, something which was happening on the trail rendered him speechless.
He heard a woman moaning. She was trying to keep her voice down. He had sex with Su Li a few times, so he certainly could tell it was a woman moaning while having sex. He looked in the direction where the noise came from and vaguely saw a naked couple in the forest. With the ground being their bed and the sky being their blanket, they were having intense sex.
The man was on top of the woman. He seemed to be quite a performer. His every hump made the woman underneath him moan lustily.
"What noise is that?"
As a member of the Sucking Blood Clan, Ghost's five senses were very acute. She certainly could hear what Xiao Luo was hearing. Just like Xiao Luo, she also saw the couple about sixty miles away. Blinking, she asked curiously, "Gee, handsome Luoluo, what are they doing? Fighting? But why are they fighting naked?"
Fighting?
Xiao Luo almost choked.
"A fight? Where? Where?" The Duck Emperor was very excited.
"There. Do you not see those two?" Ghost pointed at the couple.
The Duck Emperor looked in the direction in which she pointed. Then he said earnestly, "Silly girl, you are so ignorant. They are not fighting. They are doing the most beautiful thing in the world."
"Ahem, ahem…"
Xiao Luo coughed and gave Duck Emperor a stare as a warning for him to hold his tongue. If he influenced Ghost in an unsavory manner, he would not let him off easily.
However, Ghost did not know what he was talking about at all. "But the most beautiful thing in the world is to have an endless supply of delicious food, isn't it?"
"It is because you have never done this before. That is why you think the most beautiful thing in the world is to have endless delicious food. Once you have done this, you will change your mind," continued the duck. He ignored Xiao Luo's warning look and went on misleading Ghost.
"Really?" Ghost asked doubtfully.
"Of course. Try it with this god damned jerk if you do not believe me. Then you tell me whether it is true," said Duck Emperor while he glanced at Xiao Luo.
"Okay. That's a great idea."
The suggestion thrilled Ghost. She could hardly wait. Going up to Xiao Luo, she said, "Handsome Luoluo, let us do it, shall we?"
Xiao Luo gave her a knock on her head. Covering her head with her hands, she pouted and looked at Xiao Luo with a pitiful face. "That hurts," she said.
Xiao Luo scolded her, "Great idea, my foot. You know nothing. The damn duck is talking nonsense. Do not believe him!"
Then, he reached out to grasp Duck Emperor's neck and threw him toward a tree.
WHOOSH!
The Duck Emperor hit the tree hard, like a small cannonball. "Quack!" He let out a painful scream and slid to the ground feebly, like a pile of mud.
"He is killing me… He is killing a poor duck…"
The Duck Emperor screamed as loudly as he could after falling to the ground.
Xiao Luo went toward the mountain peak, paying no attention to him.
Ghost was much nicer. She walked over, picked up Duck Emperor, and put him into her pocket. "Duckling? Did you lie to me? If not, why would handsome Luoluo be so angry?"
"Girl, kings, and bears often worry their keepers. Have you ever heard this saying? That god damned jerk is the king, while we are his keepers. We have to be careful about everything we say and everything we do. Otherwise, we could lose our lives to the king." The Duck Emperor tried to ally with Ghost. He figured it would be safer that way.
"Nonsense. Handsome Luoluo is adorable. He would never harm us," Ghost replied in disagreement.
"Adorable?"
The Duck Emperor said with a bitter smile. He added, "It is because you have never seen his brutal side. He is an absolute devil when he kills."
"I'm sure handsome Luoluo would kill no one unless those people went too far. And he would only kill scoundrels," argued Ghost.
The Duck Emperor gave it a thought. Things were like what the girl said indeed. She was right that Xiao Luo only killed those scoundrels because they went too far.
"What are you doing there? Follow me."
At that moment, Xiao Luo stopped and turned around to shout at them.
"Coming." Ghost hurried to pick up her pace.
…
…
The couple was halfway up the peak. The mountain was not high, only about 1200 feet. But it was high enough for Xiao Luo to observe the Mu City Academy.
"It seems all disciples of the academy are heading toward the teleportation portal," murmured Duck Emperor.
"Yeah. The students look like an enormous group of ants," Ghost echoed.
Xiao Luo frowned because he could see what was happening on the field where the teleportation portal was.
[On the field where the teleportation portal was located]
They tied Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi up on two crosses, and they could not move at all. Their faces were pale, and there was blood at the corners of their mouths. They had internal injuries, which was why they were too weak to fight back.
An elderly grey-robed man was standing in front of them with his hands behind his back. With a head of white hair and a white beard, he had an intimidating look. He was the Elder Zheng from the Mu City Academy.
Zheng Feihan and Chen Junbin were standing on both his left and right side, assisted by others. They were staring at Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi with clenched teeth.
Around them were the thousands of disciples of the Mu City Academy. They were discussing in low voices with different expressions on their faces.
"What happened? Hu Qingsong injured Zheng Feihan and Chen Junbin. Elder Zheng tied them up to parade them out here."
"No, that is not what happened. Hu Qingsong is a useless supervisor. Even if he had ten guts, he would not have the nerve to hurt Zheng Feihan. Besides, he is not even strong enough to defeat Chen Junbin."
"So, why did Elder Zheng tie them up?"
"It was a man and a woman who injured Zheng Feihan and Chen Junbin. And the man and woman are close to Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi. We searched the entire city but did not find them. Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi must have hidden them somewhere."
"I see. This useless supervisor is a troublemaker!"
"He offended Elder Zheng. Elder Zheng will make him suffer a lot."
"By the way, did the dean and other Elders have anything to say about this?"
"What could they say? Elder Zheng is the one who has a say in the academy. The dean is his apprentice Younger Brother, who tolerates him excessively. As for the other Elders, they know Elder Zheng's temper. Who would interfere in this? Anyway, Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi deserve it."
"Yeah. Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi could have stayed quietly in the academy, but they had to offend an Elder. Of all people, it was Elder Zheng whom they pissed off. They cannot blame anyone for what they are going through."
