Chapter 921 The Lonely Old Man

Stepping onto the stone steps of Chi Yun Peak, Lu Chen didn't meet a single student along the way. Except for the occasional chirping of birds in the forest, everything was quiet.

"Sure enough, he is a lonely old man..." Lu Chen chuckled, quickened his pace, and hurried towards the top of the mountain.

Not long after, Lu Chen's figure had already reached the mountainside. At this moment, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Not far in front of him, he saw an ordinary small wooden house. The wooden house was not big and simple, standing on the mountainside.

"Is there such a hut in the academy?"

Looking at the cabin in front of him, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then he stopped thinking about it and walked directly towards the cabin.

Walking to the door of the cabin, Lu Chen's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and then he pushed the wooden door open and walked in.

The furnishings in the wooden house are as simple as this small wooden house. There is a bamboo bed, a small table, a few small bamboo stools, and nothing else.

"Where did you come from, you dare to come here to steal something from me!" The voice was a little low, and the touching feeling was a bit old.

Under Chase Lu's gaze, an old man with half-white hair walked out of the back room.

The old man was wearing a white cloth with two patches on it. He was slightly stooped and holding a small wine gourd in his hand.

At this moment, he was glaring at himself angrily. From the look in his eyes, he really thought he was a thief...

"Um... uncle, is there anything you can steal here?"

Lu Chen was a little dumbfounded. The furnishings in the cabin could be seen clearly at a glance, and there was nothing at all.

At this time, Lu Chen finally understood why he had to pay 10,000 points for this task first. The old man in ragged clothes in front of him, as well as the simple furnishings in the wooden house, all revealed the word "poor".

"Hey, kid, I don't like hearing what you are saying. There are many treasures hidden here. You just have poor eyesight." The old man glanced at Lu Chen, then sat on a bamboo stool nearby.

"Really..." Lu Chen's mouth twitched.

Yue Longsha said that this old man had a dragon soul in his hand, but now that Lu Chen saw it, it was incredible for him to have a dragon scale.

Looking at the old man in front of him, he said no more and directly took out the school token and expressed his intention.

After seeing Lu Chen take out the token again, the old man's expression softened, and he turned his head and looked at Lu Chen up and down.

"You are Yue Longsha's apprentice. Did she ask you to come to me?" The old man in ragged clothes raised the wine bottle in his hand to his mouth and took a sip.

"Yes, the teacher said you will give me a dragon soul..." Although Lu Chen didn't believe the person in front of him, he came here. Maybe this person is really an expert from this world.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, the old man in ragged clothes suddenly stopped holding the wine gourd to his mouth, and his face instantly turned red.

"Fart...I don't have that thing!" The old man rolled his eyes and took another sip of wine.

"But, I took over the task of the academy..." Lu Chen held the academy token in his hand and stared at the old man in front of him.

"It's a mission. If I don't approve of you, you can leave!" The old man in ragged clothes grinned and just drank the wine from the gourd.

Lu Chen's eyes widened and he was speechless for a moment. He never expected that such an operation could be done...

The man in front of him said that he had lost 10,000 points. Lu Chen looked a little unhappy. He had never suffered such a big loss since he came to the Academy.

"Let's go and tell Yue Longsha for me that I don't have a dragon soul."

The old man in ragged clothes slowly waved his arm toward Lu Chen, as if he was determined to blackmail him.

"I'll go...Old guy, you give me back 10,000 points!" Lu Chen's eyes were full of anger, his whole body was surging with mana, and the ancient lotus sword was in his hand.

In order to take on this task, he is now penniless. The eight levels behind the Nine Dragons Swallowing Heaven Jue are still short of 400,000 points in total, but the old man in front of him actually cheated himself of 10,000 points with just one sentence.

My uncle can't bear this, but my aunt can't bear it. Anyway, he, Lu Chen, absolutely can't bear it!

"Hiss... Ancient Lotus Sword, where did you get the sword in your hand?" A green light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the old man in ragged clothes, staring at the Ancient Lotus Sword in Lu Chen's hand.

"Picked it up..." Lu Chen's eyes were slightly red, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with the old man.

If this person refuses to return his points, I am afraid he will have to fight with him today.

"Uh... good luck." The old man in ragged clothes was obviously stunned, and then he said again: "I may have thrown the sword in your hand, you have to return it to me."

The old man had a serious look on his face, and even stretched out his arm to signal Lu Chen to hand the sword into his hand.

"You..." Lu Chen's complexion turned from red to green. He had never seen such a shameless person in his life.

"We'll talk about it after we take over Lu's sword!"

The ancient lotus sword in Lu Chen's hand flashed with green light, and his whole body's momentum suddenly rose. The sword's intention turned into mist, and instantly filled the entire cabin.

"Give me back 10,000 points!" Lu Chen shouted angrily, and slashed out a shocking sword energy from the long sword in his hand, sweeping towards the old man in front of him.

The old man smiled slightly, but the expression on his face didn't change much. He stood up slowly, his mouth suddenly bulged, and he blew out a breath of alcohol while looking at the surging sword energy.

The odor of alcohol gathered and lingered, instantly filling the entire cabin and turning into bone-chilling ice mist.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and I only felt a slight chill, making people unable to help but relax.

Relax.

Everything in the cabin was frozen with the old man's sip of turbid wine, whether it was sword energy or sword intention, even Lu Chen's brows had a trace of white ice rising.

"What kind of spell is this!" Lu Chen was secretly shocked. He felt that the magic power in his body seemed to have become a little solidified. It was obvious that he was no match for the person in front of him.

"Do you want to learn how to melt ice? I can teach you!" The old man in ragged clothes chuckled, then raised the wine gourd in his hand and took another sip.

The ice mist in the air disappeared without a trace in an instant as the old man took a sip of wine, as if it had never appeared.

"Who are you?" Lu Chen glanced at the frozen ancient lotus sword in his hand, and then looked up at the person in front of him.

The old man in ragged clothes smiled and did not immediately answer Lu Chen's words. Instead, he turned around and sat on the bamboo stool again.

I saw him holding the wine gourd, taking a big sip, and then burping.

"I, Xiao Yun, am the elder of the academy and a lonely old man." Xiao Yun suddenly laughed and turned to look at Lu Chen.

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He naturally knew what the elders of the academy represented.

In the academy, the number of students and teachers accounts for more than half of the entire academy, and above the teachers, it is said that there are elders.
