"Death Spirit Plan!"
The moment Su Qian uttered those words, the elders of the academy exchanged glances, all showing a hint of surprise.
Death Spirit Plan — this was something they hadn't heard of for many years.
Mo Yu also paused, a contemplative glint appearing in his silver eyes.
After spending more than half a year at the Jia Nan Academy, Mo Yu had gained a substantial understanding of the academy, including knowledge of this Death Spirit Plan.
In fact, the name Death Spirit Plan came from the Death Spirit Tree at the academy's entrance near Peace Town.
In the Black-Corner Region, due to well-known reasons, the reputation of the Death Spirit Tree had reached a level that sent chills down people's spines.
However, compared to the Death Spirit Plan, the fear that the Death Spirit Tree inspired was insignificant. The Death Spirit Tree had claimed only a few Dou Wangs and Dou Huangs, whereas every activation of the Death Spirit Plan at Jia Nan Academy brought a river of blood.
According to incomplete statistics, since Jia Nan Academy's founding, the Death Spirit Plan had been initiated twice. Each time, it wiped out nearly a third of the powerful figures in the Black-Corner Region, including several Dou Huangs and even a Dou Zong. This spoke to the terrifying power of the Death Spirit Plan.
Unlike the Death Spirit Tree, which only killed those who trespassed into Jia Nan Academy's grounds and ignored its rules, the Death Spirit Plan was a deliberate cleansing of the Black-Corner Region by Jia Nan Academy. Once provoked, this action became a nightmare for everyone in the Black-Corner Region.
Clearly, Han Feng's recent actions had completely enraged Jia Nan Academy.
Mo Yu hadn't expected Su Qian to be so resolute. After all, although the Death Spirit Plan had built Jia Nan Academy's formidable reputation, it had also cost them dearly each time.
Shaking his head, Mo Yu stopped mulling over these matters and instead looked at Su Qian, saying, "Elder Su, I once established a faction in the Black-Corner Region known as the Yuan Manor. Since Han Feng is the one responsible for harming Cousin Xiao Yan, I hope the academy will allow me and the Yuan Manor to participate in the Death Spirit Plan!" His silver eyes gleamed with determination.
"Oh? The Yuan Manor?" Su Qian was taken aback, his elderly face showing surprise.
He hadn't expected Mo Yu, so young, to have already established a faction of his own.
Though surprised, neither Su Qian nor Hu Gan, nor the other elders, thought much of the Yuan Manor's strength. After all, Mo Yu had only been a Dou Ling before coming to the Inner Academy. Although his strength had somehow skyrocketed, any faction he founded half a year ago was unlikely to be that formidable.
Nevertheless, considering Mo Yu's determination for revenge and his strength in defeating a peak Dou Wang, Su Qian nodded in approval.
"In that case, you and your Yuan Manor may cooperate with the academy. If any danger arises, the academy will allow the Yuan Manor members to seek refuge here."
Noticing Su Qian's slightly dismissive expression, Mo Yu raised an eyebrow but did not mind.
Jia Nan Academy, with its prominent reputation, obviously looked down on an unknown faction.
However, Mo Yu was well aware that while Han Feng wasn't exactly a genius, his methods were not to be underestimated. His Black Alliance was not something Jia Nan Academy could casually destroy.
And the Yuan Manor was not as weak as they thought.
With the upcoming battles between Jia Nan Academy and the Black Alliance, the Yuan Manor would gain from it, growing into a force no one could ignore.
"Thank you, Elder Su!" Concealing his thoughts, Mo Yu's expression remained unchanged. "The Yuan Manor will not disappoint the academy. However, as the Yuan Manor is not yet powerful enough, taking on certain responsibilities may still be challenging. I hope the academy can provide additional manpower."
Su Qian, surprised, stroked his white beard thoughtfully. "That can be arranged. All the elders are present. If you need assistance, feel free to pick an elder to accompany you to the Black-Corner Region."
Shaking his head, Mo Yu surprised everyone by refusing, saying, "I don't need an elder. I need students. I request that Elder Su permit me to take some members of the Mo Gang out of the academy, integrate them into the Yuan Manor, and help implement the Death Spirit Plan to cleanse the Black-Corner Region."
For Mo Yu, although his strength now surpassed eighty percent of the academy's elders, these elders, with their seniority and high standing, would be difficult to command in the Yuan Manor. In contrast, the Mo Gang students were his long-standing followers, who would instantly boost the Yuan Manor's power.
And the Mo Gang members' potential was far greater than that of these half-retired elders.
"Oh?"
Realizing Mo Yu's intentions, Su Qian narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, then nodded slowly after a while.
"Very well."
Mo Gang Headquarters
Inside a spacious hall, pairs of fervent, reverent eyes stared intently at the young man with a stern face and silver eyes. Each heart was stirred with righteous anger.
"Ahem, everyone, I'm sure you're aware of what happened today. The Black-Corner Region's provocation of Jia Nan Academy, causing harm to our Inner Academy students, has incited deep anger within the academy. Thus, the academy has announced the Death Spirit Plan."
"Our leader once established a faction called the Yuan Manor in the Black-Corner Region and has volunteered to hunt down Han Feng, the Medicine Emperor."
"The situation now requires manpower. If you believe you're up to the challenge and have the courage to venture into the Black-Corner Region with us, step forward."
Lin Yan, who had been informed of the plan by Mo Yu in advance, addressed the crowd with a steady voice.
"Boom!"
In unison, nearly dozens of figures stepped forward, their faces filled with fervor.
Seeing those who stepped forward without hesitation, even Mo Yu, with his usual calm demeanor, felt slightly moved, and a sense of satisfaction arose within him.
"Fourteen high-level Dou Lings, all other Dou Lings, plus Lin Yan and I, who are both quasi-Dou Wangs. What do you think, Boss?" Qian Mo surveyed the people who had stepped forward, then turned to Mo Yu.
"Yes, that'll do," Mo Yu replied with a smile, patting Qian Mo on the shoulder. "Two months of closed-door training, and the Mo Gang has grown this much. You and Lin Yan did well."
Qian Mo chuckled bashfully at the praise. "It's all thanks to your reputation, Boss. Lin Yan and I just kept an eye on things. By the way, once we get to the Yuan Manor, could I take on a post? When we encounter those Black-Corner Region scoundrels, I want to be the first to fight and teach them a lesson!"
Mo Yu nodded. "Don't worry. The Yuan Manor will not disappoint you."
Then, looking at the eager faces around him, Mo Yu spoke in a deep voice, "There's no need for many words. This campaign against the Black-Corner Region is not only my personal matter but also an affair of the academy!"
"From today on, anyone who kills a Black-Corner Region expert and contributes to this mission will receive a generous reward from me!"
Hearing Mo Yu's promise, everyone in the hall broke into wide grins. After all, Mo Yu had always proven that he kept his promises.
As Mo Yu's reputation brewed over time, it became ever more potent. Just the sound of his voice would fill his followers with boundless fighting spirit.
"Let's move!"
Casting a quick glance around the hall, Mo Yu waved his hand decisively and led the way outside, followed by a mass of fervent troops.
A group this large marching through the Inner Academy naturally caused quite a stir. When the crowd caught sight of the silver-eyed youth at the head of the force, many gasped in surprise.
Ignoring the curious stares around them, Mo Yu's group made their way straight toward the Inner Academy's exit. They passed through dense forests, and ahead, they spotted an open, hidden spatial gate, with the low growls of gryphons resounding beyond.
"There are over a dozen gryphons waiting outside. They'll fly you directly to your destination."
Just as Mo Yu looked a bit surprised, the figures of Liu Qing, Lin Xiuya, and Zi Yan suddenly appeared in front of him.
"These are prepared by the Great Elder," Lin Xiuya smiled, addressing the group. "The Death Spirit Plan isn't solely Mo Gang's responsibility; every student has a duty to restore the Academy's honor.
"The elders mentioned that Mo Yu has established a force in Black-Corner Region. While our abilities may not match yours, we'd still like to contribute in any way we can. Would you allow it?"
As Lin Xiuya finished, Liu Qing stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Mo Yu. Meanwhile, little Zi Yan looked at Mo Yu with her big, dark eyes, making her intentions clear without a word.
Seeing this, Mo Yu paused, then smiled. "If you're all so willing, I'd be glad to have you!"
Zi Yan, Lin Xiuya, and Liu Qing were among the strongest in the academy, next only to him and Xiao Yan. Having them join Yuan Manor would undoubtedly boost its strength considerably.
Of course, Mo Yu knew that given their skills and backgrounds, they wouldn't stay in Yuan Manor forever, but this period of support was enough for the group to grow.
"Thank you to the Great Elder for his assistance," Mo Yu said, bowing towards the direction of the Inner Academy. Then, with a wave of his hand, he called out, "Let's go!"
With his command, the group moved swiftly, disappearing beyond the silver energy gate. Once they were gone, the gate rippled slightly and then slowly faded until it vanished completely.
Deep within the Inner Academy, in a pavilion, Su Qian stood with his hands behind his back, gazing toward the academy's exit. After a moment, he murmured, "They've set off."
"Great Elder, isn't it a bit risky to let Mo Yu take the Inner Academy's students into the Black-Corner Region?" a nearby elder asked hesitantly.
Su Qian chuckled. "Don't worry. With Mo Yu's strength, they should be safe. Besides, experiencing real life-and-death battles will be beneficial for them."
"Also, I'm curious to see what this young man has in mind. Yuan Manor is unlikely to remain obscure for much longer."
The elder could only smile wryly at Su Qian's words. After all, Black-Corner Region was filled with ruthless individuals.
Su Qian's final statement left the elder puzzled. What was so intriguing about a faction created by a young student that it warranted the Great Elder's attention?
"Inform all Inner Academy elders to prepare to assemble in three days. This time, we'll make sure Black-Corner Region knows we're not to be trifled with!" Su Qian's eyes flashed coldly as he waved his hand.
"Yes, Great Elder!" the elder replied, then quickly left.
High above in the sky, small black dots began to emerge. As they drew closer, they revealed themselves as massive gryphons, roaring past in formation.
Seated on the lead gryphon, Mo Yu squinted at the distant horizon, then turned to Lin Yan beside him. "We're in the Black-Corner Region now, right?"
Lin Yan nodded, retrieving a map from his storage ring. Pointing to a particular spot, he said, "According to your directions, we're not far from Shi Yan City, where Yuan Manor is stationed."
Mo Yu nodded slightly, calming his eagerness as he sat cross-legged on the gryphon's broad back, closing his eyes to rest.
Yuan Manor, I wonder how it has grown…
With the gryphons, renowned for their long-distance endurance, Mo Yu and his group were spared the arduous trek and troubles of the Black-Corner Region.
After one night, they neared their destination, and before them rose a tall, solid fortress city.
As the students curiously observed the city, a sharp voice rang out from the walls.
"Who goes there? You're entering Yuan Manor territory; flying magical beasts are prohibited!"
On the walls, dozens of strong figures exuding a murderous aura stood ready, staring warily at the gryphons above.
Hearing this, Mo Yu opened his eyes. Seeing the vigilant guards with their intense presence, he nodded approvingly.
It seemed Yuan Manor had grown stronger and more disciplined in his absence.
As his gaze shifted, Mo Yu suddenly noticed a figure cloaked in black standing among the guards.
This figure exuded a chilling, sinister aura, and even from afar, Mo Yu could smell the thick scent of blood that clung to him.
A thought crossed his mind, and Mo Yu murmured to himself, "Xiao Li… cousin…"
