Chapter 1498: Million Wine Mountain Eruption!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The person who shouted this was Elder Bo Yan.

His figure flashed, and he rapidly flew to the sky. He looked toward Million Wine Mountain, and his expression became one of shock.

The other elders immediately reacted and hurriedly followed.

It was no wonder they had such a huge reaction—it was because Million Wine Mountain’s side indeed had an abnormal situation!

In the skies, the layers of dark clouds surged over and finally gathered above Million Wine Mountain, covering the sky.

The winds howled crazily, and thunder flashed.

That loud sound was the thunder coming from the clouds. The sounds were tremendously loud, and they stunned one’s heart.

Seeing this scene, Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but knit her brows slightly. Wha-what’s going on?

Around every mountain in the academy, they had basically set up a barrier. In addition, Million Wine Mountain was especially unique.

Ever since Chu Liuyue had caused two incidents there, Elder Bo Yan and the rest specifically strengthened the barrier around the mountain.

In comparison to other peaks, Million Wine Mountain’s barrier was definitely the top. This was also the reason why any commotion within Million Wine Mountain would be isolated by the barrier.

From the outside, the crowd wouldn’t be able to see what was going on at all. If this wasn’t the case, the incident of Chu Liuyue transferring the Long Yuan Sword’s weapon soul to the Chi Xiao Sword at Million Wine Mountain would’ve spread far and wide in the academy, causing a huge commotion.

However, the current weather phenomenon had directly gone past that barrier! The scale and aura of the phenomenon were much greater than what she had seen before!

Countless thoughts flashed across Chu Liuyue’s mind, but she still couldn’t guess the exact reason. W-what exactly is going on?! 

…

This shocking commotion quickly attracted the entire academy’s attention.

Countless figures flew out from the mountain peaks. Everyone looked in the direction of the terrifying aura.

“What’s going on? What happened?”

“Is someone breaking through…? Look in that direction—it seems like it’s Million Wine Mountain, right? Could it be an elder refining a weapon?”

“This won’t happen even if they’re refining a weapon… Because they were worried that weapon refinement would disturb everyone, the elders set up multiple barriers around the mountain peak. Normally, this would never happen. I really don’t know what’s happening this time…”

“But that’s indeed Million Wine Mountain, right? Did something happen to Million Wine Mountain again?”

The crowd partook in heated discussions.

Not long ago, they already felt that something was amiss when Million Wine Mountain was forcefully closed. They didn’t expect an even bigger commotion to occur today.

Elder Bo Yan stared at Million Wine Mountain, and his gaze was dark. Why did this suddenly happen? We clearly checked multiple times before, and there was no problem! Calculating the time, it shouldn’t be now! 

His gaze was sharp as he boomed, “Wen Xi, immediately summon the academy elders and gather the students at Qing Ming Square!”

“Yes!”

“Hua Feng, Wan Zheng, follow me!”

The two elders clearly realized the severity of the incident, and they respectfully fell silent and nodded.

Elder Bo Yan took a step out and turned around to look. “Rong Xiu, take good care of her!”

Rong Xiu nodded. “Elders, be careful.”

Elder Bo Yan and the rest rushed toward Million Wine Mountain.

The entire academy burst into an uproar.

Chu Liuyue put down her hands.

The glow on the warrior ranking list rapidly dissipated, returning to silence.

The frightening ‘kaka’ didn’t sound again. However, that familiar feeling wrapped her heart and didn’t go away.

Chu Liuyue stared at the black stone board and finally looked up.

The covered name was still dark, and one couldn’t see it.

Chu Liuyue pressed her lips against each other and felt conflicted.

A dry and warm hand suddenly stretched over and held hers.

Chu Liuyue turned around.

“What are you thinking about?” asked Rong Xiu.

Chu Liuyue pressed her lips against each other. She could tell that Rong Xiu didn’t want to let the elders know of her identity.

“Million Wine Mountain… Is it related to you?” Her voice was extremely low as if it would float away with the wind.

Rong Xiu shook his head and intertwined his fingers with her ten fingers. “I don’t know either.”

He did have the skills to hide from everyone, but before he could use them, something happened at Million Wine Mountain.

He looked up slightly, and his brows rapidly furrowed when he saw the continuously strengthening suppression and aura. Then, he held Chu Liuyue’s hand tightly, and his voice was low. “Don’t worry. I’m around.”

Chu Liuyue was dazed, and a ray of white light flashed across her mind. Hang on! The thing that happened at Million Wine Mountain… Could it be related to me?! Tuan Zi’s breakthrough to become a red-gold heavenly phoenix was largely dependent on the fountain at Million Wine Mountain. I originally felt rather worried, but after Tuan Zi broke through, Million Wine Mountain was as peaceful as normal, and everything was as per usual. Hence, I didn’t take this incident to heart. 

Upon seeing the strange movements in Million Wine Mountain, she suddenly recalled this. At that moment, countless thoughts flashed across her mind.

Million Wine Mountain’s status in Ling Xiao Academy was special. Even though the students regularly went there to play, they didn’t dare to cause trouble. This was also the reason why the elders allowed them to go up.

But after she came, she caused trouble there twice.

It was clear that the academy elders had gathered lightning in the fountain. Even though she didn’t know its uses, the elders clearly wouldn’t do something for nothing.

And now, most of those lightning bolts had been absorbed by Tuan Zi. Isn’t it— She took a step forward and wanted to go up.

Rong Xiu held her back and silently glanced at her as he shook his head slightly. “Hold on first.”

Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat, but after some hesitation, she still chose to wait at her spot. If something really happens… I have to take responsibility for it!
