The massage lasted for 15 minutes. After the genie turned into light spots and dissipated under the night sky, everyone was still looking astonished.
If it wasn’t because the genie’s dressing was too ‘scary’, Helian Xue and the other great teachers would really want to get closer to study it.
“Teacher Sun, what on earth was that thing?”
Xiao Di was curious.
He was also a speculator who had gone to protect Wanyan Mei at the very first instant the Dark Dawn launched their attack. He had wanted to do her a favor in an attempt to get a good job after he graduated.
Wanyan Mei stared at Sun Mo deeply. She felt that this intern teacher had too many secrets.
For example, the excellent archery skill he had displayed earlier. It was definitely some kind of powerful cultivation art.
And now there was this muscular genie. They were both so unique!
Wanyan Mei’s gaze landed on Sun Mo’s face, and she couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
Sigh!
(Why aren’t you handsome enough? But this is normal. You’re already so talented. If you were also extremely handsome to top it off, how would other guys be able to live?)
Wanyan Mei felt that given how outstanding Sun Mo was, it was enough to negate the disadvantages he had in his appearance.
“My cultivation art.”
Sun Mo didn’t wish to say too much about it and stood up. “Everyone has gotten enough rest, right? Get on the horses and continue on our way!”
15 minutes wasn’t enough for much rest. The girls were still tired, but after hearing Sun Mo’s words, all of them got up.
All this time, Sun Mo had always been in the lead, saving everyone. Even when they were surrounded and attacked, he’d be at the very front. With his calmness and great performance along with his powerful battle prowess, he had become the indisputable leader in the students’ hearts.
“Teacher Sun, we don’t have horse feed and water. The warhorses haven’t gotten enough rest. If we continue like this, I reckon that they wouldn’t be able to hold on for long. Why don’t we rest a little longer?”
Tuoba Cao proposed.
“If we can escape, why would it matter if a few horses die?”
Sun Mo disagreed.
Given the current situation, they were fighting against time. As long as they could escape far enough tonight, the Dark Dawn wouldn’t be able to catch up to them, and everyone would be safe.
“Teacher Sun, I feel that you’re too wary. The Four Symbols Starlord’s goal is the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture. There’s no way that he’ll personally come to hunt us down. As for the other miscellaneous men sent by him, we should be able to deal with them.”
Tuoba Cao insisted on his view.
Sun Mo turned and looked toward Tuoba Cao. This dorm mate of his had always been a man of few words, but he was talking a lot today.
“Teacher Sun, I also suggest that we wait a little.”
Wanyan Mei spoke up, “I’m the Jin Country’s princess. At a time like this, I shouldn’t just think about escaping and saving my life. I think I should save the students who are still trapped in the school.”
“By saving, are you referring to letting other people die?”
Sun Mo asked.
“Uhh!”
Wanyan Mei’s countenance immediately turned grim.
“Teacher Sun, your words are too hurtful! The princess has kind intentions.”
Helian Xue chipped in.
Mei Ziyu watched as Sun Mo quarreled with the others, and she couldn’t help but let out a sigh. It was really a case of one’s butt determining their heads.
Wanyan Mei wanted to stay behind and earn the reputation of sharing woe and weal with the others. After all, she was Jin Country’s princess, and all of her words and actions would affect the royal family’s face.
Now that they were safe, she started to think about this. She could really be said to be scheming, ruthless, and cold-blooded.
The reason Wanyan Mei dared to stay here was because she was certain the great teachers would protect her.
Given how smart she was, she’d definitely be able to think that there were other girls in the group. Once the Dark Dawn caught up to them, they’d choose to catch her alive. However, the other girls didn’t have any value and would practically be as good as dead.
It could be said that although everyone was together, the degree of protection they received was completely different.
Even if the great teachers were to die in battle and she was eventually captured, she believed that given her status as a princess, the Dark Dawn wouldn’t dare to be rough on her. They’d at most ask for a ransom.
After all, the Jin Country was the strongest country in the great plains.
“Get on the horses!”
Sun Mo ordered.
Wanyan Mei didn’t move, neither did the other great teachers. It was because in their hearts, the princess’s authority was higher than Sun Mo’s.
Most of the girls looked around and then docilely got on the horses.
“Even if you’re a princess, you’re just a child. Don’t think of yourself as a savior who can do everything.” Sun Mo preached. “Moreover, Suolantu is still in school. Can’t you give him more trust?”
“If those students were from the Central Plains, would you still be so heartless?” Tuoba Cao reproached.
Swoosh!
Sun Mo’s cold gaze stared over. “Say that one more time!”
Tuoba Cao subconsciously shrank his neck. Sun Mo’s gaze was too cold, like an iron blade that had been taken out from a stream in the cold winter, with the blood washed off it. It was filled with a strong killing aura.
“Get on the horses!”
Sun Mo let out a low bellow.
Wanyan Mei was completely suppressed by Sun Mo. She docilely stepped on the saddle and got on the horse.
“Let’s go!”
Sun Mo urged, using the back of his heel to kick the horse’s stomach hard. However, they had just charged out for over ten meters when a piercing eagle cry rang out. Then, a black shadow came from the sky, pouncing toward Wanyan Mei as fast as a shooting star.
Swoosh!
“Be careful!”
“Protect the princess!”
Helian Xue and the others drew their swords and started attacking.
Sun Mo raised his hand and flicked his finger incessantly.
Ssss! Ssss! Ssss!
Beams of light shot out, suppressing the eagle, forcing it to stay far away from Wanyan Mei.
There was no helping it. Sun Mo also wanted to kill it, but he didn’t have the confidence of succeeding in hitting it. If he made a mistake, it’d be over for Wanyan Mei. Therefore, he could only cut off the path in which the eagle was pouncing toward Wanyan Mei.
However, the eagle was a lot more amazing than Sun Mo had predicted. Its massive body that was comparable to the size of a calf managed to dodge the light rays agilely, like how flies avoid fly swatters. It went straight for Wanyan Mei.
“Your Highness!”
The few great teachers near Wanyan Mei let out loud bellows and kept on performing their ultimate techniques.
“Princess!”
Xiao Di let out a loud bellow. He was the most dauntless, exerting force in his legs and darting out toward the eagle like a missile.
Helian Xue was very smart. He slashed his sword onto the butt of Wanyan Mei’s ride.
Neigh!
The warhorse let out an agonizing cry and charged out.
Swoosh!
Having lost its goal, the eagle grabbed Xiao Di’s body.
Its sharp claws instantly pierced through his flesh.
Ah!
Fresh blood scattered and Xiao Di let out an agonizing cry, smashing strong punches onto the eagle’s body. However, it was like scratching an itch through a boot. He was unable to deal any damage.
The eagle flapped its wings and rose into the sky, tearing fiercely with its two claws.
Rip!
Xiao Di was torn apart like a piece of rag. Blood and internal organs splattered all over the floor.
“Argh!”
Some girls vomited at the sight of this scene.
They had seen dead people before, but this was the first time they had seen someone die such a horrible death.
Sun Mo and Duanmu Li moved their horses in front of Wanyan Mei.
Having failed on the first attack, the male eagle flew up and circled in the sky, continuing to monitor the situation on the ground.
“Enemy attack!”
Sun Mo shouted and looked at the path they had come from. A middle-aged man was charging over while riding on a huge white tiger.
He didn’t say anything and only threw a calm glance. However, with just this, Sun Mo’s group felt as if they had plunged into an ice cellar.
“Four… Four Symbols Starlord?”
Helian Xue’s voice was stuttering, emitting intense horror.
Each of Dark Dawn’s seven Starlords was a secondary saint. It’d be no different from crushing an ant for the Starlords to crush them.
Hence, dark clouds of death came encompassing Sun Mo’s group.
The girls’ faces turned pale and they didn’t even dare to breathe too heavily.
The person they saw was very tall, wearing a black robe with the image of rosy clouds of dawn embroidered on its hem.
On his chest area, there was a diagram of a strange ancient beast.
“I heard that the Four Symbols Starlord had tamed four ancient beasts which he named the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and The Black Tortoise. This was also where his name came from.”
Mei Ziyu explained in a soft voice and then advised, “When you find a chance, just run. Leave us alone.”
It was too easy for the Four Symbols Starlord to wipe out these people.
“The Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture is the Dragon Subduing Academy’s ultimate divine art. I don’t think that it’s so easy to get, right? Isn’t Starlord losing sight of the important goal to be chasing after us?”
Sun Mo smiled and asked.
Hearing Sun Mo’s sneer, Helian Xue and the others took in a cold gasp of air and looked at him with great astonishment.
(You’re really gutsy!)
“I don’t need you to comment on how I do things!”
The Four Symbols Starlord’s lips twitched.
The current situation was like a majestic lion had blocked the path of a herd of rabbits. The lion was thinking of how it should make its move. On the other hand, the rabbits were trembling in fright, not even daring to escape.
Sun Mo had seen the Daynight Starlord, the Daybreak Starlord, and Dean Bai. These three people were all secondary saints. To speak the truth, their dispositions were about the same, but they were easier to talk to than this man.
Sun Mo was only probing when he spoke, wanting to see if there was any chance of turning the situation around. After all, there was really no way for them to defeat him.
He had secretly activated Divine Sight, but the two words that appeared almost drove Sun Mo to his death.
Unknown target.
“F*ck your mom! What use do I have for you if you’re so trashy?”
Sun Mo let out a low bellow in his heart.
As expected, he couldn’t rely on the system for everything. It seemed that he could only find a way to break through the situation by himself.
“Host, I’m a great teacher support system. I’m here to help you become a great teacher and not your father who has to take care of your safety.”
The system explained, “Moreover, such a great threat is the best opportunity to temper you. Of course, I won’t interfere.”
“You think that you’re on the side of reason?” Sun Mo was very impatient. “Quickly kneel and take your leave!”
“Host, you can resolve this situation. Let me see what you can do!”
After saying that, the system made a ‘ding’ sound.
“Mission released. Please push back the Four Symbols Starlord, protect Wanyan Mei to make sure that she isn’t captured, and protect the students so that they won’t be killed. The reward will be given based on the degree of completion of the mission.”
“Mission released. Please pull chestnuts out of the fire and snatch the Great Desolation Dragon Subduing Scripture. Once you are successful, you’ll be given amazing rewards!”
“Mission released. Please save the Dragon Subduing Academy from being wiped out. The reward will be given based on the results.”
There were three consecutive missions issued, with each one being more difficult than the next. At least, the one that he was facing right now was a stalemate.
“Don’t panic. There must be something that I’ve overlooked! Hurry up and think!”
Sun Mo appeared calm, trying hard to wreck his brain to think of a way to break out from this situation while trying to keep the Four Symbols Starlord under control.
However, the deathly pressure brought by this Starlord was too tremendous.
“Then whom should I kill first?”
The Four Symbols Starlord sneered, his gaze darting around. Before he chose his target, a girl couldn’t take it anymore and used the sheath of her blade to lash her warhorse’s butt strongly, charging out.
She wanted to run.
