Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 584 Interrogation

Surrounded by a murderous aura, Su Ping continued forward.

Perhaps because the secret array restriction was broken, the mist that had been shrouding the Tomb God Forest dissipated, and the view opened up.

This Tomb God Forest is actually a low-lying basin. The deeper it gets towards the center, the more it is sunken. On the outermost steep slope, there are barriers connected by purple divine patterns. These barriers are only about ten square meters in area. Most of them are empty, and a few barriers contain young figures, who should be students of the True Martial Academy.

These barriers were like terraced fields, layer upon layer. As Su Ping's gaze extended forward, the deeper he went, the fewer figures appeared within the barriers.

At the very front, he saw a tiny figure sitting deep in the basin, at the very front, cultivating. But it seemed that the figure sensed something and broke free from cultivation under Su Ping's gaze.

Remembering Han Yuxiang and the others' reactions when they heard about the nineteenth floor, Su Ping's gaze instantly locked onto the student at the very front. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he took a step forward.

The roars of demons rang out, a fierce wind raged, and a surging aura of malevolence swept around them. They seemed to want to get close to Su Ping, but they also seemed to be afraid of something. They simply followed Su Ping's figure on both sides like shadows.

……

The nineteenth level of the Tomb God Forest.

Inside the barrier.

Nan Fengtian slowly opened his eyes, his brows furrowing slightly. He felt that the surrounding malevolent energy attacks had suddenly weakened considerably. In his mind, the wailing and roaring evil thoughts of the demonic beasts seemed to have suddenly retreated, which puzzled him. He had never encountered this situation when he was cultivating here.

Could it be that the precious treasure given to us by our family has finally worked its magic?

He reached into his robe and pulled out a piece of jade from inside his chest.

The jade piece shimmered with a soft luster, its shape was somewhat irregular, and apart from the fluorescence it emitted, it had nothing particularly special about it.

However, Nan Fengtian knew that this treasure was extremely valuable, and it was because of his outstanding performance at the academy that he was able to obtain it from his family.

This is a treasure left by their ancestors. It can guard the mind. With this treasure, one can be immune even to the intimidating techniques of a king beast!

Even legends would covet such a treasure!

"If this item can dispel evil energy, then the point of wearing it to cultivate here is not so great..." Nan Fengtian muttered to himself.

He wore this treasure while cultivating here so that, while guarding his mind, he could be attacked and invaded by evil energy to the extreme, allowing his consciousness to be tempered to the greatest extent.

If this item weakens the attack of evil energy, then cultivating on the nineteenth floor would be worse than not wearing this treasure and cultivating on the eighteenth floor.

Nan Fengtian shook his head slightly and was about to get up and leave when the surrounding barrier suddenly began to swirl and tremble. The purple divine patterns that made up the barrier shook violently and were revealed from their original transparent state.

This sudden turn of events startled Nan Fengtian, and his expression changed slightly. He had never encountered anything like this before.

Something unusual must be going on. Could it be that something has happened in the Tomb God Forest?

He dared not linger. Although this place was suitable for cultivation, it was also a dangerous place. If any turmoil were to occur, it would be extremely easy for him to get into trouble if he stayed here.

Just as Nan Fengtian was about to leave the barrier, the barrier in front of him suddenly cracked open, and a figure exuding dark demonic energy floated in from outside the barrier.

Upon seeing this figure enveloped in demonic energy, Nan Fengtian's pupils constricted, and he involuntarily retreated, his heart pounding. He asked, "You, what are you?"

The demonic energy emanating from the other party felt even more terrifying than the malevolent manifestations of the evil thoughts of the monsters he had encountered in his mind.

Is he still cultivating?

Is this his world of consciousness?

"So you are Nan Fengtian?" Su Ping looked down at him with cold and indifferent eyes.

Nan Fengtian asked in surprise, "You know me?"

"You know Su Lingyue, right? Where was the last time you saw her?" Su Ping asked coldly.

Nan Fengtian was taken aback and said, "Su Lingyue?"

Whoosh!Whoosh!

At this moment, two figures flew over quickly; they were Yun Wanli and Han Yuxiang.

The surrounding malevolent aura dared not approach Su Ping. Yun Wanli also followed in and, seeing Nan Fengtian's astonished expression, immediately said to Su Ping, "Su the Rebel King, let's go outside and talk about this first?"

"Dean?"

When Nan Fengtian saw Yun Wanli and Han Yuxiang flying over, he was even more stunned. He felt that he had not yet broken free from his cultivation. Otherwise, how could the dean, who was usually elusive, appear here?

"OK."

Su Ping glanced at Nan Fengtian but didn't say anything more.

Yun Wanli breathed a sigh of relief, immediately grabbed Nan Fengtian's body, and then flew back with Han Yuxiang.

Su Ping also turned and flew away, leaving the Tomb God Forest.

When Su Ping, Yun Wanli, and the others returned, Pei Tianyi and the others, who were in the open space outside the bamboo forest, woke up. When they saw Nan Fengtian being carried by Yun Wanli, they were all somewhat astonished. They did not expect that in such a short time, they had entered the nineteenth level of the Tomb God Forest, a place that was beyond their reach.

Many eyes were fixed on the young man. At this moment, Su Ping's murderous aura had been subdued, but the scene of him being like a demon king had still deeply shocked them and left a lasting impression.

"Nan, the traitorous King Su wants to ask you something. Answer truthfully, and do not lie!" Yun Wanli put Nan Fengtian down and said seriously.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Ping beside him.

At this moment, Su Ping's status in his heart has been elevated several levels. Previously, he only regarded Su Ping as an ordinary legendary level, and thought that he and Su Ping would be evenly matched.

But after what he just witnessed, he immediately realized that this young man was probably on par with a Void Realm Legend, and could even compete with some old Legends who had been in the Void Realm for many years!

This is a level of strength that he can hardly reach at present, and he is already old. If nothing unexpected happens, he will only reach the peak of the Legendary Realm of the Vast Ocean Realm in this lifetime.

"The Dean?"

Nan Fengtian was somewhat taken aback and asked, "Am I in reality right now?"

Yun Wanli was slightly taken aback, then immediately beckoned to the middle-aged man with the title beside him and said, "Light the magic lamp and let him identify it."

The middle-aged man understood, and with a flick of his sleeve, a divine lamp appeared in his palm. As he poured his star power into it, the lamp immediately burst into flames.

Upon seeing the magic lamp, Nan Fengtian came to his senses and realized that this was reality.

This magic lamp is a sign to determine whether it is real or fake.

In the world of consciousness, this magic lamp cannot be depicted. It is a rare treasure, and its specific effects are unknown to outsiders. However, it is known that no one can condense this magic lamp in the world of thought; it can only be seen in reality. Therefore, it has become a tool for the "Forest Keeper" to help students distinguish between reality and consciousness.

"The student greets the Dean!"

Realizing that this was in reality, Nan Fengtian quickly bowed to Yun Wanli.

Yun Wanli raised his hand to indicate that he should give up, and said, "Nan, you should quickly tell Su Niwang about Su and tell him everything you know."

"The Rebellious Prince Su?"

Nan Fengtian was somewhat surprised. Was it the "Rebellious King" he understood, or was it his original name, "Rebellious King"?

He dared not ask. The scene of the boy's appearance earlier still lingered in his mind. It was the boy's terrifying killing intent that made him mistakenly believe that he was in the world of his mind.

Otherwise, based on his experience cultivating in the Forest of the Tomb Gods, he could distinguish between reality and illusion even without the magic lamp.

"Dean, who is this student Su you're talking about?" Nan Fengtian asked, puzzled.

"What are you pretending to be confused about? You're talking about that Su classmate who disappeared because of you!" Su Ping shouted coldly.

Nan Fengtian's pupils contracted slightly, but he quickly recovered and asked in confusion, "I don't know what you're talking about. There are quite a few students with the surname Su in the academy. How would I know which one it is if you don't tell me the name? As for what you said about disappearing because of me, that's even more unbelievable. I've been cultivating all along. I would never do anything like bullying my classmates, nor would I stoop to doing it."

Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You're lying."

Nan Fengtian's expression changed slightly, and he said angrily, "What makes you say that? I am, after all, a descendant of a legend, of noble blood. Why would I lie?"

Seeing Su Ping's murderous look and remembering the miserable state of Ji Feng earlier, Yun Wanli quickly said, "Your Majesty Su, please calm down and let Nan speak first."

His way of addressing Su Ping has changed to a respectful form of address.

The previous scene had a significant impact on him. If it weren't for Nan Fengtian's legendary bloodline and his status as one of the most outstanding students in Zhenwu Academy in recent years, he wouldn't have been willing to offend Su Ping for the sake of a student.

"Nan, we're talking about Su Lingyue. Someone saw her with you and Ji Feng before she disappeared. Do you know where she went?" Yun Wanli said to Nan Fengtian.

Nan Fengtian was taken aback and immediately shook his head, saying, "Dean, I really don't know. Although that student Su is a very talented freshman, and I have high hopes for her and wanted to recruit her into our family, I have been cultivating these past few days. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known she had disappeared."

"I told you, you're lying."

Su Ping stared directly at him, a chill running through his eyes: "I'll give you one more chance. I don't care what bloodline you have. Even if the legends of your family are still alive, if they stand before me, I'll kill them all!"

Nan Fengtian was somewhat stunned; this tone was far too arrogant!

Their legendary ancestor has long since passed away. He was a descendant of the legendary family, a legend within the family, and an honor for all the clansmen throughout the ages.

"You insulted a legend, do you know what crime that is?!" Nan Fengtian couldn't help but shout angrily.

Yun Wanli and Han Yuxiang were both startled. Yun Wanli quickly spoke up, scolding, "Shut up! Su Niwang has the strength to kill a legendary figure. How dare you speak to Su Niwang like that?"

Nan Fengtian was taken aback by the shout, and after hearing Yun Wanli's words, he was stunned.

Does he have the strength to kill a legend?

Could it be that this young-looking person before us is also a legend?!

His heart pounded wildly, his blood felt hot, and cold sweat poured from his pores.

He already knew that the dean was a legend.

Would a legend lie or deceive him?

"I, I deserve to die..." Nan Fengtian realized what was happening and quickly knelt down.

Thinking of Yun Wanli's attitude towards Su Ping, he was covered in cold sweat. Even the legendary dean showed such awe to this young man. His attitude was simply courting death.
