Chapter 199 The Heaven School’s Helplessness (6)
Gao Ge is looking forward to what Daoyuan is going to say next.
Nevertheless, just like an autism sufferer, Daoyuan still says nothing.
Gao Ge turns to Master Guanshan, hoping that he can scold Daoyuan again just like before.
Yet, Master Guanshan may have thought of something so he acts rather calm to wait for Daoyuan’s response.
Eventually, Daozhi speaks first.
“Daoyuan, there is nothing to be ashamed of. It is not our fault actually.”
Daoyuan looks at Daozhi, saying with a bitter smile, “Though we didn’t do it, we are involved anyway. Besides, we have used the spiritual jades. In the final analysis, we can hardly absolve ourselves from the blame!”
Based on the conversation between Daoyuan and Daozhi, Gao Ge has already got the answer but he is still not sure of it.
Master Guanshan heaves a sigh, asking, “Are the spiritual jades of questionable origin?”
Actually, when he learned that the Heaven School suddenly had a huge stock of spiritual jades, he has felt that something must be wrong.
He believes that there must be a something very shady about the spiritual jades.
“Grandmaster, it is those people who gave us the spiritual jades. However, later on, we found out that the owner should be the Dragon Court. And those people just took away the spiritual jades in some way when the Dragon Court just exploited them out.” Daoyuan suddenly kneels and gives a kowtow, “The sovereign has used these spiritual jades to elevate our capabilities and some core students. As such, we have occupied Mount Que successfully.”
Master Guanshan shakes his head with a bitter smile, “Now it is not the time for you to admit your mistakes and ask for punishment. If you did, I would have to do it with you. After all, if it were not for the spiritual jades, I could not stand in front of you.”
“Grandmaster, you shall not do this!” Daoyuan and Daozhi are terrified and hasten to say anxiously.
Gao Ge is shocked by their reaction.
Actually Master Guanshan just stands there, doing nothing. Gao Ge fails to understand what Daoyuan and Daozhi were talking about. Master Guanshan didn’t say anything wrong anyway. If others hear them shout like that, they may think Master Guanshan is going to commit suicide.
“Forget it. Let’s put that aside. In fact, you are not to blame. After all, those people are rather capable. They set a trap for the Heaven School with the spiritual jades taken from the Dragon Court, and the trap is fatal. Even I can’t do anything about this situation but to see the school fall into the abyss, let alone you.” Master Guanshan says with his eyes full of helplessness.
Gao Ge falls into deep thought.
He starts to think in the shoes of a student in the Heaven School. He finds out that just as Master Guanshan said, if what Daoyuan and Daozhi said is the truth, nothing can be done about the dilemma that the Heaven School is facing.
Those people are so capable that they can crash the Heaven School easily. They managed to acquire the spiritual jades from the Dragon Court first and then passed them to the Heaven School as a bait. When the men of the Heaven School used the spiritual jades, they literally burned the bridges behind them and were forced to stand on the opposite side of the Dragon Court. Anyone else will be helpless when faced with such a trap. Of course, the premise is that what Daoyuan and Daozhi said is true.
There is no such a thing as free lunch.
Even a child knows about this.
Someone just showed up and threw a lot of spiritual jades at the Heaven School.
And the man told that there was nothing fishy. He did this only out of good will. No one will buy the story.
Therefore, from where Gao Ge stands, what Daoyuan and Daozhi said is partially true and partially fake.
Maybe they don’t know anything about the trap. Yet, it is more likely that faced with the temptation of spiritual jades and the wish to make the school rise, they still choose to jump into the trap even though they recognize it.
Because in their eyes, as long as they can get the spiritual jades, they will have better chances of breaking through and the school may rise one day. After the Heaven School becomes powerful enough, those people won’t be able to do anything against the school with any schemes.
To their surprise, those people are so strong that they can easily crash them down with a little finger.
Those who accept the spiritual jades are really stupid. Didn’t the thought cross their mind that those people must have a way to harness the Heaven School since they were bold enough to give away so many spiritual jades?
“Gao Ge.” Master Guanshan suddenly says.
“Yes, Master.” Gao Ge responds.
“I need to get recovered soon.” Master Guanshan says in a deep voice.
Gao Ge laughs, saying, “It won’t be a problem with adequate spiritual jades.”
“Good.” That’s what Master Guanshan wants to hear from Gao Ge.
Gao Ge says grinningly, “Master, can we use the spiritual jades?”
Master Guanshan looks at Gao Ge, asking, “Do you think we still need to think about such an issue now?”
Gao Ge understands.
To be honest, Master Guanshan is basically smashing the pot since it is already cracked.
After all, what’s done is done. The spiritual jades have been used. What else can be cared about?
Gao Ge hesitates though.
It seems that he has reached his goal of coming to the Heaven School.
Whether Daoyuan and Daozhi are telling the truth, there is one thing he can be sure of.
The spiritual jades that the Dragon Court has lost are in the Heaven School indeed!
If he continues staying here, he may put himself at the risk of life. It is not that he will be exposed but that the Heaven School has reached a point where its existent is at stake.
“I have one more question.” Gao Ge darts a glance at Daoyuan and says.
“What is it?” Daoyuan feels angry at seeing Gao Ge.
“Why do the sovereign and the other people leave the school?” Gao Ge asks.
Master Guanshan is dumbfounded.
If Gao Ge didn’t ask this, he may have forgotten to ask this question.
He has been focused on the enemies that the Heaven School is facing so he has forgotten why the sovereign and the others left the school.
Daoyuan coughs, saying, “The sovereign and the others have gone to Dongzhou.”
“Dongzhou?” Gao Ge is surprised.
Although Mount Que is in Dongzhou too, it has been a distance away from the urban area of Dongzhou.
“Those people ask us to take charge of the whole Dongzhou.” Daoyuan says, “The cultivation schools in Mount Que have been eliminated. The people of those schools either have died or left Mount Que. Only the ancient martial arts families in Dongzhou are left.”
With his pupils contracted, Gao Ge asks, “So, are you going to exterminate the ancient martial arts families?”
“We don’t have to. As long as they are willing to submit to our school, we won’t cause many deaths.” Daoyuan says.
Gao Ge frowns.
He thinks that it is time for him to leave the Heaven School.
He has collected enough information in the Heaven School.
Especially the appearance of those people makes Gao Ge feel that their target may not be the Heaven School or Dongzhou.
It is the Dragon Court!
