Ugly time (three o'clock in the morning). In the bedroom of the small house.

"Beads."

Jiu Tang turned over and frowned: "I still can't sleep after thinking about it, why don't we leave now."

She always felt a little panicked, but she comforted herself - Qilian was so strong, he should be fine.

That's all, after all, she can't help much now, it's still important to improve her strength.

"Hmm~~hum~~"

Zhuzhu hummed twice, rubbed herself on the bed again, then slowly stood up, shook her head, and woke up a little.

When he opened his eyes, his pupils were big and round, shining brightly.

He jumped to the ground with a whimper, and instantly became energetic: "Let's go, Master."

Jiu Tang got up, put on his clothes, and opened the door.

The sky was still gray, with only a incomplete moon and a few faintly shining stars hanging faintly, and a few insects chirping from the grass.

Although the sky is gray, it is not gloomy, and there is a warm breeze unique to summer.

The peach blossom tree in the center of the courtyard still stood gently. Against the backdrop of the large group of flowers, the entire tree seemed to be enveloped in a pink halo.

Ayan was still sleeping on the branches of the tree, while Aotian slept in a daze under the tree, occasionally humming twice.

Jiutang didn't want to disturb them, followed Zhuzhu, gently opened the door of the house and walked out.

Behind this house is the forest where you need to go to find materials - although the academy is surrounded by large forests.

If you want to go to town from the college, you have to walk for at least three days. I don't know why the dean insisted on setting up the college in such a deserted place.

"Hey, something is moving in front." Jiutang whispered. Zhuzhu stopped and stared at the situation in front of her.

A hundred meters away, an unknown humanoid creature was walking around, fiddling with a bow-shaped weapon.

"Master, that seems to be a man, maybe a student in the academy."

"Hmm...I don't think so. You said in the academy, who is a good person who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night?"

Jiu Tang retorted that it would be fine if he didn't sleep in the middle of the night and didn't practice. Wandering outside the school is just weird.

"Master, aren't you awake?"

"How can I be the same? I am obviously diligent!"

"Who?" a voice shouted from the front.

The man disappeared instantly, his breath became extremely weak, and then he disappeared. It seems to be hidden in the air.

"Eh? Master, look at him, he can actually become invisible." Zhuzhu sighed.

The warm wind originally made the woods rustle, but after the man disappeared, the surroundings suddenly became silent.

The next second, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and a cold arrow rushed straight towards Jiutang's direction from behind.

However, the arrow did not carry murderous intent, but more like a tease. It wasn't sharp, and the direction it shot was a bit off, stabbing straight into Jiu Tang's left side an inch away.

Jiu Tang didn't care at all and stood there without any dodge. I calmly closed my eyes and felt the distance, but saw that the person hadn't come out yet...

Jiu Tang's ears twitched slightly, he spun up and kicked the arrow shaft. The arrow changed its direction instantly and flew rapidly towards the direction it was originally shot.

The man who was originally hiding behind the tree did not expect that the arrow would fly back and hurriedly avoided the arrow. None of them could stand firm on their feet, so they squatted on their buttocks and groaned.

Seeing Jiutang looking over, he calmly stood up and patted the dust from his clothes.

Jiu Tang turned around and looked at this man strangely - at this age, he really looked like a student from the academy, but he was very unfamiliar.

I saw that he and Li Wei were about the same age, but they had completely different styles.

He was dressed in black, his eyes were deserted, a little gloomy, and his long hair was tied up. There is a wine gourd wrapped around his waist, a quiver slung at his side, and a bow in his left hand.

"It's just a joke, why do you want to kill people and silence them?" The man complained softly, bending down to pick up the arrow that fell on the ground.

"You're up in the middle of the night, what are you doing here? You look very unfamiliar, new here?" There was no wave in the voice, and it sounded cold.

The man looked at Jiu Tang, then sat down cross-legged, wiped the arrow he had just picked up, and then threw it into the arrow basket.

"I didn't see you at lunch yesterday. Are you also a student of the college?" Jiu Tang asked back.

"Me, I am a night owl. I sleep during the day and usually start working at night. To put it simply, I am a night owl. So everyone also calls me a nocturnal person.

You didn't see me because I usually don't go to the cafeteria to eat. I can't get up and am too lazy to move. What’s more, the food cooked by that guy Pu Yuan... makes me want to throw up. "

Speaking of Pu Yuan's meal, Ye Xing's calm voice was rarely trembling.

"Then you also came in through the academy's admissions process?"

"That's not true. At that time, I came out of home and wandered around the Sunset Forest. I happened to meet the dean, and then he was discovered by the dean's discerning eyes."

"How could the dean find you with his sharp eyes?" Jiu Tang sat down cross-legged, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Ye Xing patted the gourd on his waist and half-smiled, "Of course I share the same interests with the dean."

"You are the Hidden One. Space talent." Jiu Tang looked back at him, his eyes shining. This academy is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, with such a rare talent.

Although the old dean looked messy and unreliable, the college's external reputation was also abysmal. But more than half of the more than thirty people in this academy are talented or have great potential.

Space talent is extremely rare. Practitioners can split space, create their own small world, and hide in it. Or use space to devour and attack.

For Ye Xing, unless his cultivation level is much higher than him, others will not be able to notice when the invisible person hides in his own space.

She didn't even feel Ye Xing's aura just after Ye Xing disappeared in place, and then he appeared directly behind her and fired an arrow behind her.

This was thanks to Jiutang's sensitivity to breath, which locked his position the moment he appeared, otherwise there would be no way to judge his location.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and even a small moment can lead to death.

Although Ye Xing's current cultivation level is not high, it is slightly lower than hers. But with this talent, the future cannot be underestimated.

Ye Xing's eyes flickered and he said haha: "I'm just a janitor. The college is in the mountains. It's inevitable that monsters will come in and attack people. It will be bad if the dean is willing to take me in. I will be satisfied if the dean is willing to take me in and give me food and shelter." .

Oh, you want to go out, right? "

Jiu Tang hummed: "Teacher Suyue said she would take me to learn puppetry. I want to go out and find some things."

Ye Xing nodded and returned to his cold demeanor: "Go, after leaving the barrier, it's an illusion arranged by the dean. If you go out with this, you can break the illusion. Come on, I'll go to bed soon." .”

Jiu Tang reached out and took a black rope handed over by Ye Xing, with a small piece of shining crystal hanging on it.

"There is a mountain over there. The soil is dark brown and it is a bit dangerous. Don't go there. Okay, let's go. I wish you good luck."

After Ye Xing finished speaking, he ran directly to the tree, and his breath disappeared again.

"Thank you."

Jiu Tang said to the tree and walked towards the barrier with Zhu Zhu. The moment it came into contact with the barrier, ripples emitted from the boundary gate.

Jiu Tang crossed over, and the boundary gate slowly returned to calm.
