Breaking into the Dragon Pool Alone
âClan Leader, please spare my life!â The person knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
âShen Jian? Didnât I tell you to stay at the inn? Why did you suddenly come back?â Shen Jia struggled free from Shen Wansanâs embrace and asked the person who came. âYoung Miss, He Chuan left the inn alone just now!â Shen Jian replied in a panic.
...
âDo you know where he went?â Shen Jia hurriedly asked.
âLooking at the direction, it should be Changliu Mountain!â
Hearing this, Shen Jiaâs expression changed slightly.
It seemed that He Chuan was very likely a member of Heibai Academy!
âRight now, the four great clans are forming an alliance with such fanfare in the Jizhou City. Heibai Academynaturally wouldnât be able to see this. Thereâs an 80-90% chance that He Chuan is a spy of the Heibai Academy!â Shen Wansan suddenly said.
âImpossible!â Shen Jia retorted sternly.
âClan Leader, the Yang Familyâs Eldest Young Master Yang Wanli has brought people from the three great families!â A loud shout suddenly came from outside the hall.
The servant hurriedly ran over and bowed respectfully.

The Ji Prefecture was a large prefecture in the south of the Yanyang Empire. There were a total of three large cities in the prefecture, arranged in a north-south line. The southernmost was Canglan City, the middle was Jizhou City, and the northernmost was Xianghe County.
Jizhou City was firmly in the middle, and its location was simple. Naturally, it was far superior to the other two cities in terms of resources and strength.
It was because of this that the grandeur of the entire Jizhou City had long surpassed that of the two cities combined.
The mountain peak was where the headquarters of Heibai Academy was located, Changliu Mountain!
The mountain was steep and faced cliffs on three sides. Only a winding path led to the top of the mountain. It was definitely a dangerous place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
In addition, the entire mountain was heavily patrolled by the disciples of Heibai Academy, making Changliu Mountain even more like a miniature fortress, extremely safe.
Even though Changliu Mountain was in Jizhou City, few people had gone up the mountain over the years, and countless tourists had been deterred.
One of them walked up the stairs along the winding mountain path under the morning light.
Although he had to rush to the capital and check on his brother, He Wenfengâs situation, he was still in a hurry.
However, He Chuanâs footsteps were neither fast nor slow. From time to time, he would look at the mountain scenery on both sides. Then, his gaze stopped at the end of the mountain. He stepped up the snow-white mountain peak that pierced through the clouds.
His white robe was shining in the morning light.
He placed his hands behind his back, and a rough stone sword that had yet to be sharpened was stuck diagonally at his waist. He looked like an ascetic monk who was wandering the world.
On the empty and quiet mountain path, the back of the person projected on the ground was constantly elongated, making him look rather thin, but it also revealed a surprising calmness and freedom.
Perhaps it was because most of the disciples of the Heibai Academy had been sent down the mountain to ambush the four great clans, but Changliu Mountain, which had been heavily guarded, was now completely empty. Even though the white-robed youth had deliberately climbed the mountain slowly, he hadnât encountered a single person.
When he reached the top of the mountain, he stopped and stood on the slope to look ahead.
The palace was coiled around the mountain peak, looking magnificent and spectacular.
On the flat ground in front of the palace, one could clearly see several hundred disciples of Heibai Academy, neatly lined up, ready to set off.
His body exuded the powerful aura of a Spirit Accumulation Realm martial artist.
Even if they didnât come today, they were still preparing to leave the mountain!
He Chuan lowered his head and stared at the ancient stone steps in front of him that had existed for countless years. He slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
He walked up the stone steps towards the training grounds where the disciples of the Heibai Academy were gathered.
âWho are you?â The patrolling disciples of the Heibai Academy discovered He Chuan.
âHe Chuan!â He Chuan said calmly.
Changliu Mountain was instantly filled with killing intent.
Regardless of whether it was an inner sect disciple or an outer sect disciple, even if it was someone they were familiar with, they would only nod and leave quickly. It was as if the Heibai Academy had encountered a great enemy. The atmosphere was very heavy.
At the martial arts arena on the mountain peak.
More than two hundred inner disciples who had reached the Spirit Accumulation Realm were ready to go. They stood in a row with their chests puffed out, and heads held high with determined expressions.
On the high platform up ahead, Zhao Sheng was the leader of the five Elders of the Heibai Academy. They were all gathered here.
âGrand Elder, isnât it a little too much to mobilize so many people for the country bumpkins of Canglan City?â The Fifth Elder of the Heibai Academy, Gao Lei, said in confusion,
According to his understanding, that kid was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth, at most a martial artist of the Spirit Accumulation Realm.
Ever since the disciples guarding the city gates had heard He Chuanâs words yesterday, the Heibai Academy had been on high alert, as if they were facing a great enemy.
At dawn, Zhao Sheng gathered all the inner sect disciples and prepared to deal with He Chuan.
In Gao Leiâs eyes, it was a complete fuss.
How big of a wave could a young boy who had yet to reach his peak cause?
âDo you really think that a Spirit Accumulation Realm martial artist can kill the Black and White Double Demons? To be able to kill Zhou Yong, who is in the Heavenly Surge Realm?â Third Elder Li Mu snorted coldly.
âHe Chuan is just a kid who doesnât know the immensity of heaven and earth.â Fourth Elder Gao Jie helped.
He was Gao Jianâs brother, so he had to speak up for Gao Jian.
Moreover, mobilizing a large number of troops was indeed a little too much.
âAs expected of blood brothers, youâre also brainless. Do you really think that Great Elder is only here to deal with He Chuan?â Lei Ming suddenly laughed coldly and said in a sinister manner.
âWhat did you say?â
âLei Ming, do you really think that we wonât dare to kill you?â Gao Jian and Gao Jie were furious.
âKill me? Come and try!â Lei Ming said with an indifferent expression.
âHeâs just a young boy. I donât care about him. If he really dared to come, it would save us a lot of trouble. They had gathered all the inner sect disciples for the four great clans!â Zhao Sheng shouted loudly.
The four great elders immediately fell silent and looked at Zhao Sheng.
Could it be that Zhao Sheng was preparing to make a move against the four great clans?
Originally, he only wanted to weaken their strength so that they wouldnât be jumping around blindly when they left Changliu Mountain.
He hadnât expected that they would actually dare to form an alliance with such fanfare in an attempt to intimidate the Heibai Academy!
If they didnât teach the four great clans a lesson, wouldnât the clans in Jizhou Prefecture look down on them?
The four elders immediately agreed to attack the four families.
âSince no one has any objections, then letâsâŠâ
The black shadow suddenly shot over, drawing a beautiful parabola in the air and smashing a shallow pit on the martial arts practice field.
Dust flew into the air, causing a commotion among the hundreds of inner court disciples.
Zhao Shengâs voice stopped abruptly. He and the other four elders looked over at the same time and saw a corpse with broken bones and fresh blood lying in the stone pit.
It wasnât hard to tell that this blood-soaked robe was none other than the Heibai Academyâs Eight Trigrams Robe!
Who did it?
Everyone had the same thought.
Zhao Shengâs expression instantly turned cold as he looked up.
Who would have the audacity to kill a disciple of the Heibai Academy at Mount Changliu?
A white-robed youth with a stone sword at his waist slowly walked over.
âWho are you?â Second Elder Lei Ming stood up and asked sternly.
âYouâve been looking for me for so long. Donât you know who I am?â A cold voice slowly sounded.
He Chuan actually dared to come. He was simply courting death!
To barge into Changliu Mountain alone, could he be tired of living?
âLittle bastard, you really dare to come!â Zhao Shengâs aged face was seething with rage as he gritted his teeth and said.
âYou are Zhao Sheng?â He Chuan stopped in front of the martial arts field, and his gaze fell on Zhao Sheng.
