Wait a moment.

Is there anything abnormal?

Strange.

The dark mist has already dispersed.

But why is there still a lingering smell of demonic techniques?

Could it be

the Demon Clan knew we were coming

and set up an ambush in advance?

No way.

Their plan just failed.

And this is Changfeng Academy.

The Demon Clan shouldn't dare to be so arrogant.

Maybe it's the residual smell of demonic technique

from the previous battle.

The smell is faint,

but the cultivation level is not low.

Could it be a formation spell

set up by the Demon Clan?

I'll go check it out.

Qingshi, don't be impulsive.

The environment here is complex.

If you're not careful,

for one, you could destroy clues.

For another,

it's easy to put everyone in danger.

If only one of us four

was Transcendent.

It would be best to have Xueying

inspect it with us.

But

my brother is still locked in the Thunderstorm Prison.

I have an idea.

Brother.

Jingqiu.

While Situ Hong is away on patrol,

let us get you out of here.

Get out?

You two just need to switch clothes.

Brother,

I'll pretend to be you for now

and stay here.

You go out with Jingqiu and the others

to find evidence.

I'll try my best to help you

buy some time.

Qingshi has a similar build to you.

He might be able to

hold up for a while with the silhouette.

What about this lock?

It is easy.

Change clothes, Brother.

Hurry.

What's wrong with taking a look?

What's so good about this?

Senior Situ.

Thank you both.

Hurry.

Not good.

Situ Hong is coming back.

Hurry.

Qingshi, get on the bed.

Bookshelf.

Xueying.

Brother, go now.

Leave it to me.

Can't delay anymore. Let's go now.

Since Xueying killed Cui Yong,

no matter what the reason,

he should be punished.

It's still too early

to say that Xueying killed Cui Yong.

Are you saying that what we saw

is all fake?

Master Sikong,

you are too biased.

On the day of Transcendent Battle of Life and Death,

something obviously went wrong with the Trial.

We have to investigate the matter clearly

before making a conclusion.

It's not our rule to jump to conclusions

without making things clear.

Master Sikong.

Alright, alright.

Why not go find Dongbo Xueying

to learn about the situation?

He has been locked up for several days.

He should have thought it through.

Dongbo Xueying.

Xueying,

tell us.

What exactly happened

on the day of the Transcendent Battle?

Why did you attack

your fellow senior so hard?

Dongbo Xueying,

if you still want to

prove your innocence,

recall what happened that day carefully.

Don't miss any details.

Strange.

It is different from before.

The Transcendent Trial devices

have not been turned on,

so it looks like

there's nothing abnormal.

I don't know if we can find

some evidence to prove Xueying's innocence.

Don't jinx it.

If you can't find it,

you're not allowed to go out.

How about this? Let's split up and search.

How is it? Have you found anything?

These days of detention

are for you to reflect on

your heinous act of harming your fellow disciple.

I didn't expect you to be so stubborn.

What stubbornness?

I tell you.

My brother didn't do it.

How come it's you?

Where is Dongbo Xueying?

Let go.

I'll say it again.

Cui Yong was not

killed by my brother.

You just arrested someone at your wish

without investigation.

You are clearly making things wrong.

You keep saying

Cui Yong was not killed by your brother,

but the evidence is a must.

Where is the evidence?

You want evidence, right?

There will be.

Just wait.

The most important thing now is

where did Dongbo Xueying go.

I don't know.

I think Dongbo Xueying is feeling guilty.

That's why,

before he is to be punished,

he fled in fear of the crime.

I don't think so.

Qingshi is his only relative.

He wouldn't leave Qingshi here.

He will definitely come back.

I may know where he went.

Either finding evidence

or covering up the crime doesn't matter.

All the answers are there.

Let me find out the truth

and bring Xueying back.

Okay.

You were so careless

that you let them switch.

(Dongbo Xueying has escaped from the Thunderstorm Prison)

(and been near Changfeng Academy.)

(You must quickly find his whereabouts)

(and bring him back for my use.)

Dongbo Xueying,

you really know how to surprise us, huh?

This time,

don't think about slipping away from me.

Look.

Black Armored Warriors.

This is the evidence of the Demon Clan's appearance.

Xueying, we have evidence.

Seems like there's someone. Hurry up.

(The Demon Clan is really well-informed.)

(They even set up a formation here.)

Chi Qiubai,

where is Dongbo Xueying?

I must take him away today.

I don't understand.

Why do you always

hound my disciple?

Hound Xueying?

Why?

You regret it?

In the beginning,

you only asked me to let you into the Trial Space

and I agreed.

But now you are going further,

wanting to take Xueying away.

What exactly do you want to do?

What do I want to do?

You don't need to know.

Now his ability

must be the strongest

after breaking through Transcendent.

I should let him exert it well.

Ao Lan,

let Xueying go.

I'll take his place

to do what you want.

Are you willing?

I am willing.

Isn't this Si Borong?

It is indeed Si Borong.

It seems that the Elders' inference was correct.

No time to lose.

Let's take him back now

and report it to the Elders.

Come on.

Wait a minute.

Someone's over there.

You take him away first.

I'll take a look.

Be careful.

If you still

play tricks like what you did

at the Transcendent Trial,

don't blame me

for dealing with Xiaoxi,

Xueying,

and your disciples.

Only for this time.

Tomorrow evening,

at the Changfeng Academy's back hill.

Show me your loyalty then.

Master,

why are you here?

The Elders knew you escaped

and asked me to take you back.

I didn't run away.

I was just looking for evidence.

I told you.

I told everyone.

On the day of the Transcendent Battle,

the Demon Clan invaded the barrier.

Senior Cui was killed by them.

Master,

even you don't believe me.

I...

It's okay.

I have found the evidence.

I will clear my name by myself.

(Changfeng Academy)

It's Si Borong.

Borong.

Xueying,

what are you doing?

I came here today

just to prove to everyone

that I didn't kill Senior Cui.

If it wasn't you who killed him,

was it my younger brother who killed him?

No.

Senior Cui and Borong's deaths

both were led by the Demon Clan.

I knew

Xueying became a Transcendent Knight

with his own abilities.

He has been nice to all of us.

He wouldn't hurt us.

On the day Cui Yong died,

we examined

his body

and found no abnormalities.

If he died because of the Demon Clan,

we, the Elders,

wouldn't be unable to tell it.

Master Sikong is right.

But Senior Cui's death

was due to the demonic fire

that corroded his pulse,

not just ordinary demonization.

Demonic fire corroded his pulse?

In the next 24 hours

after being inflicted the fire,

if one doesn't have the attack,

they will be no different from ordinary people.

So even if a disciple

died of demonization,

there would be no evidence left.

I think

the Demon Clan wants

to make us

distrust each other through this matter.

Jingqiu.

Excuse me.

This is indeed a sign of demonic fire corrosion.

A sign of being poisoned by the demonic poison

after the demonic energy enters bodies.

Many of my disciples

who died in the Sea God Palace battle

also had this symptom.

Dear Elders,

please think carefully.

They showed

no symptoms at all.

But after

24 hours,

now they are bleeding on their faces.

Doesn't this confirm

the only symptom of demonic fire

corroding the pulse?

In that case,

at that time in the Trial Space,

Senior Cui Yong had already been demonized.

It really wasn't Xueying who killed him.

Is it possible that someone

was jealous of Xueying becoming Transcendent

and deliberately wanted to frame him?

On that day, the Demon Clan

infiltrated the barrier in the Trial Space,

but we didn't have the chance

to save any useful evidence.

However,

the deaths of Senior Cui and Borong

are the best evidence.

As the Transcendent Trial's barrier is strict,

how did the Demon Clan infiltrate it?

On the day of Transcendent Battle,

we were surrounded by the Demon Clan

as soon as we entered.

They used the formation

to set up the black fog.

So, we were focusing on dodging.

But Senior Cui Yong,

in order to protect us,

was hit by the demonic fire.

That's why he ended up like this.

It seems the matter is not that simple.

That's right.

We all know

the Xia Clan has many Demon Clan spies.

Now it seems

these Demon Clan spies

have infiltrated

Changfeng Academy.

If this spy

is in Changfeng Academy,

I will definitely find out and punish them severely.

Now that I think back,

the destruction of my Sea God Palace

is also related to these spies.

Knight Changfeng,

if you find the spy,

inform me immediately.

I'll personally

shred him into pieces.

From now on, Changfeng Academy enrollment

should also be

more cautious and strict.

Borong,

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

I didn't protect you well.

I will definitely

avenge your death.

Si Borong is our fellow disciple.

We will avenge his death for sure.

It's all due to the Demon Clan.

We must

get rid of them.

Right.

Get rid of them.

Now we need to be clear about one thing.

The Demon Clan

entered the Transcendent Battle

just to kidnap the new Transcendent.

Since they've already transformed

a lot of Black Armored Warriors

and got

the rare source stone of the Sea God Palace,

why would they want to catch

the new Transcendent Knight?

If I'm not mistaken,

it's because the current Black Armored Warriors

are not powerful enough,

so

they're targeting

the newly emerged, strongest Transcendent.

But that day,

the Demon Clan did not succeed.

Now the only one who has become a new Transcendent

is just you, Xueying.

I think the Demon Clan

won't let it go easily.

Faction Leader,

Xueying is not the one who killed

Senior Cui Yong.

On that day in the Transcendent Trial,

he risked his life

to protect us.

Now Xueying is the target of the Demon Clan,

we should protect him.

We can prove

that Xueying

is really being wronged.

Yes, Elders.

If you continue to

be so indiscriminate,

then I think this Changfeng Academy

is not worth going to.

But on that day we all saw

Xueying's spear

in Cui Yong's body.

How do you explain that?

I really don't know about that.

But I'm also very sad

that I couldn't save him.

It has been clarified

that Cui Yong was demonized

and the Demon Clan is the real murderer.

Let's not

blame each other anymore.

We should focus on fighting the Demon Clan.

In that case,

Xueying,

no one is perfect.

This time,

you were wronged.

It's okay.

At least now the matter

has been clarified

and my name has been cleared.

If it wasn't for this,

I wouldn't have had the chance

to enjoy a few days of leisure in prison.

(Xueying Territory)

Commander Zong.

Excuse me.

May I ask

if Ji Rong lives here?

You must be Ji Rong's father, right?

Yes, yes.

We've met before,

in Yishui City.

Then please follow me.

Thank you.

Please wait a moment.

I will go find Miss Ji Rong.

Thank you.

Aren't you...

Here you are.

Go away.

Why are you here?

Why did you even come here?

Daughter.

Do you know

it was so hard for me to find you?

Alright, alright.

Stop pretending to be pitiful.

Just leave here now.

What's with your attitude?

It's been just a few days.

And you're already so heartless to your father.

Don't forget.

The year you were born.

Water under the bridge.

Why do you still mention it?

What exactly do you want to do?

Don't you know

what I want to do?

Recently,

I've been short on cash.

Since you've had a hard time finding this place

and it's getting late,

you can stay here tonight.

Alright, alright.

Uncle Zong Ling. Uncle Tong San.

Is that okay?

Ji Rong.

Alright,

I'll have someone arrange a room.

Thank you, Uncle Tong San.

Thank you, Uncle Zong Ling.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

I knew it.

You are the most filial to me.

How could you not care about me,

right?

Good girl.

Here.

Take this money

and get lost tomorrow.

It's you.

You startled me.

My daughter is the best.

Were you confused?

Why did you run away like that?

Now,

don't you still have to take me as your father?

Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now.

Kill me?

Are you mistaken?

I'm your biological father.

If you kill me,

you won't

have a single close relative left

in this world.

Think about it carefully.

As a half-demon like you,

not loved by the Demon Clan or the Xia Clan,

if you even lose your father,

how will you live this life?

Are you threatening me now?

Don't forget.

It was you who killed my mother,

leaving me alone and helpless.

Child,

I had no choice back then.

I didn't expect your mother to be a demon.

At that time, she even deceived me

and nearly cost me my life.

Alright, alright.

Don't be angry anymore.

For the rest of your life,

I will find a way to make it up to you.

I warn you not to provoke me again.

Otherwise,

I will avenge on you for my mother.

What a nag.

If you need me to do anything,

just say it.

I never thought

Knight Changfeng

would be willing to

protect your students

and make such a huge concession.

It seems

Xueying

is your most cherished student, right?

You want to catch a new Transcendent

just because

the Black Armored Warriors are not capable.

I am more suitable than Xueying.

As long as you achieve your goal,

why bother with

the affairs of justice?

Fine.

I like your straightforwardness,

Knight Changfeng.

However,

your loyalty to the Xia Clan

is among the best.

The Demon Clan is quite worried.

Unless...

Just say it.

Unless you let me

put the Soul Scouring Nail in you

to show your loyalty to the Demon Clan.

The Soul Scouring Nail

is the top secret weapon of Demon Clan.

If there is no antidote,

you will suffer torment

and die in pain.

What I didn't expect was

Xueying actually had the ability

to break through the restrictions of the Soul Scouring Nail

and the barrier you set

in the Transcendent Trial,

finally becoming a Transcendent Knight.

He is indeed a genius.

That day,

I intensified the spatial obstacles

to the contestants with my demonic technique.

Plus the existing challenges

in the Life and Death Barrier.

Logically speaking,

Changfeng's disciples,

in that adversity,

should have been able to stimulate

their own power

and ultimately become Transcendent.

But that day,

the only one who became Transcendent

was Xueying alone.

It must have been

your doing, right?

I am their master.

It is my responsibility to protect my disciples.

I hope

that this kind of thing will not happen again.

Since you have agreed

to cooperate with the Demon Clan,

you must fully cooperate.

So you don't mind

the Soul Scouring Nail, do you?

I can agree to that,

but I have a condition.

Remove the Soul Scouring Nail from Xueying's body.

Perfect.

I'll transfer the nail inside Xueying

to your body.

Swallow this pill

and use your blood as a catalyst,

and the Soul Scouring Nail

will be transferred to your body.

Remember.

Only when the Soul Scouring Nail

enters your body

can Xueying recover.

Also,

if the Soul Scouring Nail

is not in your body,

it will return to

Dongbo Xueying's body.

(This is the last time.)

(I must find a way)

(to destroy the Soul Scouring Nail.)

Knight Changfeng,

even if you are exceptionally talented,

don't be naive to think

you can destroy my Soul Scouring Nail.

Commander Zong.

Miss Ji Rong.

Uncle Zong Ling,

you're leaving so early.

Yes.

By the way,

I just saw your father leave.

Left?

(I didn't expect this old man)

(to be so obedient this time.)

(Did what I said yesterday scare him?)

(How could someone like him)

(listen to me?)

(I feel a bit uneasy.)

(I hope he doesn't cause me)

(any more trouble,)

(delaying my execution of the Demon Clan's plan.)

Miss Ji Rong,

is something wrong?

Nothing, Uncle Zong Ling.

Make up your mind and hands off.

Hurry up and place your bets.

Hurry up.

Big.

Big.

Small, small.

Five, five, six, big.

Big, big, big.

Big, big, big.

Big.

Three, four, one, small.

Keep betting.

What's going on?

Big, big, big.

Big, big, big.

One, two, four, small.

What's going on?

Hurry up and bet.

All in, all in.

Follow the bet. I'll bet big too.

Get out of the way.

Sir, sir.

Ji Wuhai,

it's time for us

to settle our accounts, isn't it?

Sir,

I lost everything today.

Or how about this?

Lend me some more.

After I win,

I'll pay you back the principal and interest.

You are playing rogue with me again,

aren't you?

Sir.

My real bro.

Gentlemen use their hands, not their mouths.

No, no, no.

U-Use their mouths,

not their hands.

Honestly,

I have a daughter

living in the Snow Stone Fort in Xueying Territory.

The largest territory in Yishui City.

You should know about it,

right?

Well, she has a lot of money.

It's true. Don't worry. She's not short of money.

You're talking about Xueying Territory?

Take him to collect the debt.

Go.

What are you doing here?

Two young men.

My daughter Ji Rong

lives inside.

Well,

could you please call her out for me?

Go.

Call Ji Rong out.

Hurry up.

Thank you very much.

She will be here soon.

Here she comes.

Good daughter.

I-I'm short of money right now.

Give me some more money.

You're Ji Wuhai's daughter.

Your dad owes me fifty thousand taels of gold coins.

If you don't pay today,

believe it or not,

I'll smash your Snow Stone Fort!

Ji Wuhai.

Ji Wuhai.

Your daughter dares to hit me!

Next time I see you,

I will kill you.

Daughter, Daughter.

Can you let me

stay with you for a few days?

You just heard

if they see me again,

they're going to kill me.

Listen to me.

I'm keeping your secret for you.

If you don't care about me, then I'll just...

Shut up.

Whether you can stay here

is not up to me.

I'm not the owner here.

I'm afraid this is against the rules.

Sir, sir.

Well,

I'll be dead if I go out now.

Please, please.

Sir, sir.

Please, please.

I'll be dead if I go out.

Sir.

Grandpa.

(Keeping him around like this)

(isn't a solution.)

(He's like a time bomb.)

(If this secret gets out,)

(it will ruin the important matter.)

I knew it.

Rong,

you must have made

a very good friend.

Otherwise,

how could you live in

such a nice place like Xueying Territory?

Uncle Zong, Uncle Tong,

thank you

for taking in my father once again.

Thank you, thank you.

I'll take my father away now.

Let's go.

I always feel

there's something off with Miss Ji Rong.

Last time Ji Wuhai

stayed here,

two bags of coins went missing from the vault.

This time,

we let Ji Wuhai stay again.

I'm uneasy about it.

Kick her out.

It's appropriate.

After all, she is Shi's good friend.

Shi seems to be really into her.

If we act rashly,

I'm afraid it's not right.

Let's wait for Ying to come back

and take control of the situation.

I'll keep an eye on her.

I originally wanted to treat you

to a great meal

to celebrate Xueying becoming Transcendent.

I misunderstood Xueying before.

Fortunately, he's now cleared of the charges.

What? Just two fish

and you're satisfied?

Master,

these are no ordinary fish.

This is called Snowfish.

Snowfish?

The fish caught by Dongbo Xueying

is called Snowfish, right?

Yes.

When I was young, my father

taught me some secret recipes.

The taste is not bad.

But I think

today's focus is not on eating,

but on

us all sitting together,

happy and content.

Master,

eat more.

Okay.

Take it slow. No one's grabbing them from you.

Here.

Drink some water.

I never thought that

as a rising star of the Dragon Mountain Empire,

I almost choked to death on a fishbone.

Thank you for the life-saving water.

What's the rush?

You won't be left out.

I'll catch more if you finish them.

How can

delicacies go without good wine?

Here.

This is the wine I brought.

Master,

this must be the good wine

you've been collecting for many years, right?

Yeah.

Today let's drink it.

Great.

Here.

Come on.

Let's celebrate Xueying

becoming the new Transcendent.

Cheers!

Thank you.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Xueying,

I toast you.

Congratulations on becoming

the youngest Transcendent.

Master,

you are the youngest Transcendent Knight

in Dragon Mountain Empire.

Now you have surpassed me.

Cheers.

Master,

now that

Xueying has become Transcendent,

is he going to leave

Changfeng Academy?

After becoming Transcendent,

there will be people from Transcendent organizations

inviting him.

You can choose

the organization you like to join.

Then continue to protect the Dragon Mountain Empire

and the Xia Clan.

Then,

what should we,

those who haven't become Transcendent,

do?

Look at the question you're asking.

Just keep learning.

I...

Brought it on yourself.

All you know is wining and dining.

No ambition.

So what?

You don't eat or drink?

You.

Actually, Changfeng Academy

recruits many disciples every year,

but those who can become Transcendent

are very few.

Some find it hard to break through

the Transcendent Realm in their entire lives.

Xueying,

you are lucky.

And it's also inseparable

from your own efforts.

I've seen it all.

I hope you won't forget your mission

when you leave here.

Cultivation,

not for victory or defeat.

Not for fame or gain.

Only to protect the Xia Clan.

Master,

I understand.

My father has been telling me

this principle since I was young

and I always keep it in mind.

Rest assured.

I want to go save my mother first

and then protect the Xia Clan well.

Cheers.

Let's once again

congratulate Dongbo Xueying

and wish us all

to become Transcendent Knights soon.

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

Master,

why did I have to

prove my innocence?

Actually, being falsely accused

and punished,

it doesn't matter,

but I didn't want to implicate you, Master.

So no matter what,

I had to prove myself.

Prove that I wouldn't do anything

to let down the academy,

nor do anything

to disgrace and embarrass you, Master.

Master,

I am very proud.

I am very honored.

Because I have become Transcendent.

I have lived up to your cultivation

and expectations.

I am thrilled.

My first wisp of Dou Qi

was from you.

My confidence and faith

are also from you.

Without you,

I am nothing.

Without you,

I couldn't become Dongbo Xueying.

So,

thank you, Master.

I will definitely become

your proudest disciple.

(Xueying,)

(can't believe)

(you've endured such pain.)

I didn't expect that after being hit by Soul Scouring Nail,

you could still be so graceful.

You really live up to your reputation, Knight Changfeng.

What on earth do you want me to do?

I want you to go with me to a place.
