The Sword God of the Universe
Chapter 325 - 325 325 Mu Xi Died

Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Mu Xi Died Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Mu Xi Died When Mu Xi saw that the Martial Arts and Secret Techniques he had deployed were being crushed swiftly and decisively by the onslaught, he panicked.

At that moment, he realized how terrifying and sharp the strength of the newly appointed Vice Chancellor of Dao Yi Academy was.

Before her, Mu Xi couldn’t even manage to defend himself.

“No!” Mu Xi’s hair fluttered as he screamed in desperation.

“Vice Chancellor, stop!” Ying Youque couldn’t stay calm either.

Mu Xi belonged to the Criminal Punishment Hall, he was one of Ying Youque’s people, and it was also Ying Youque who had ordered Mu Xi to capture Jing Yan.

He certainly saw that Mu Xi could not hold off Fang Ruoyu’s attacks.

When Fang Ruoyu had struck, Ying Youque was still thinking about assessing her strength.

Once he confirmed that Mu Xi couldn’t withstand even a single hit from Fang Ruoyu, he also took action, shouting loudly.

He wanted to prevent Fang Ruoyu from killing Mu Xi.

“Get out of the way!” Fang Ruoyu saw Ying Youque’s intervention and snapped sternly.

She stretched out her slender, snow-white right palm, launching a strike toward Ying Youque.

A Palm Seal formed in the air, trembled lightly, and then the Palm Seal swiftly met Ying Youque’s approaching figure.

“Boom!” Ying Youque’s body was sent flying in response.

With a casual palm strike, Fang Ruoyu had sent him flying, leaving no room for resistance.

As Ying Youque was hurled away, colorful ribbons completely enveloped Mu Xi’s body.

Bright lights violently burst forth, and moments later, Mu Xi’s screams abruptly ceased.

Fang Ruoyu’s fingers gently curved, retracting the colorful ribbons.

Mu Xi’s body had disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a cloud of dense, crimson mist that lingered for a long time.

Mu Xi was slain, leaving no trace of his body!

Jing Yan stared in shock at this scene.

It wasn’t his first time seeing Fang Ruoyu kill, and she seemed to have a preference for leaving no remains of her victims.

It had been the same when she initially killed the Dark Night Assassin.

Everyone present was stunned!

Mu Xi was an elder of Dao Yi Academy!

Mu Xi was one of the true high-ranking officials within Dao Yi Academy.

In fact, when Fang Ruoyu took action, those present still did not believe she would truly kill Mu Xi.

Only when the Elder Mu Xi had turned into a mist of blood did the people slowly come to grips with what they had just witnessed.

“Fang Ruoyu!”

Ying Youque, after being flung a hundred meters away by Fang Ruoyu’s palm attack, flew back, his eyes bloodshot as he roared.

“Shut up!” Fang Ruoyu snapped coldly.

“Ying Youque, if you don’t know your place, I’ll kill you too,” Fang Ruoyu scanned him briefly, her voice emanating from her crimson lips.

Ying Youque immediately shut his mouth.

He now had a sufficient understanding of Fang Ruoyu’s strength.

He knew if Fang Ruoyu wanted him dead, he would absolutely be unable to resist.

He didn’t know why Fang Ruoyu was so powerful, but one thing was clear: Fang Ruoyu had killed Mu Xi without any hesitation, and if she wanted to kill him, an Upper Elder, she probably wouldn’t hesitate much either.

Although Mu Xi’s stature and status wasn’t as high as Ying Youque’s, Mu Xi was indeed a genuine Lower Elder of Dao Yi Academy!

“Whoosh!” Ying Youque didn’t dare speak again and quickly disappeared with a flash.

“Fang Ruoyu, I’m going to see the Dean!” Ying Youque’s voice carried as he fled.

Fang Ruoyu scoffed disdainfully upon hearing Ying Youque’s words, clearly not taking him seriously.

“Thank you, Vice Chancellor!” Jing Yan, after recovering from his shock, immediately expressed his gratitude.

Fang Ruoyu glanced at Jing Yan.

“Hmm?” Jing Yan felt a chill in his heart.

He sensed a coldness in Fang Ruoyu’s gaze, why was that?

Despite Fang Ruoyu slaughtering such an important figure as Mu Xi without hesitation for his sake, why was there a chill in her look at him?

What was going on?

“Whoosh!” Fang Ruoyu made no response to Jing Yan and quickly flew away as well.

As Jing Yan watched her figure disappear into the horizon, his heart was still troubled.

Fang Ruoyu’s look at him definitely didn’t carry any warmth.

The coldness in her eyes felt like it could penetrate deep into his bones.

If anyone said that Fang Ruoyu wanted to kill him, Jing Yan would definitely believe it.

“Vice Chancellor Fang Ruoyu seems to really hate me!” Jing Yan thought to himself.

“But why?

Her strength is mind-blowingly strong.

If she wanted to kill me, just one finger would be enough, right?

Moreover, had she wanted me dead, she wouldn’t have spared the Dark Night Assassin in Donglin City, and I would already be dead!”

Jing Yan couldn’t comprehend Fang Ruoyu’s actions.

“Deacon Jiao Yan!” Jing Yan let out a sigh, not wanting to overthink anymore.

After all, if Fang Ruoyu truly wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t be able to escape.

Overthinking was pointless.

He turned to Jiao Yan and spoke.

Jiao Yan’s expression was extremely ugly.

Hearing Jing Yan address him, he turned his eyes toward Jing Yan with a complex look.

“I want to know where Sister Zhang Min’s body is now,” Jing Yan asked.

Since Zhang Min had died because of him, Jing Yan felt that he should do something.

At the very least, he wanted to ensure Zhang Min’s body was returned to her family.

“It’s still preserved in the icehouse of the Criminal Punishment Hall,” Jiao Yan, having no real desire to deal with Jing Yan but not daring to ignore him either, responded.

Vice Hall Master Mu Xi, after all, had taken action against Jing Yan.

Although Mu Xi clearly was not intending to kill Jing Yan on the spot, just to capture him, even so he was killed by Fang Ruoyu!

“Okay.” Jing Yan nodded upon hearing Jiao Yan’s words.

The Criminal Punishment Hall was specifically for prosecuting Dao Yi Academy students who had committed grave offenses.

Many students who died there weren’t just one or two.

If their bodies could not be processed immediately, they would be stored in the cold storage to prevent decomposition.

Knowing that Zhang Min’s body was kept in the icehouse made Jing Yan somewhat relieved.

When he had the time, he would check Zhang Min’s identity information and make arrangements to return her body.

“Hall Master Lin Yan, may I ascend the Heavenly Ladder now?” Jing Yan then looked at Lin Yan, the Hall Master of the Affairs Hall.

Lin Yan, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but roll his eyes, thinking to himself, Your concerns are truly vast—just after an elder got killed because of you, you already want to ascend the Heavenly Ladder and advance to the Inner Court!

“Yes, you may right now,” Lin Yan still nodded slightly to Jing Yan.

Afterward, Jing Yan also thanked Hua Kaizhi and others.

These people had previously spoken up for him, and Jing Yan certainly remembered.

Inner Court, residence of the Chief Master.

Ying Youque hurriedly appeared, his movements swift and urgent.
