Nock was a royal teacher while Kehr was the commander-in-chief.
Both of them had unknown things to do outside the status of honorary mentors, which Nock knew very well.
Even though Luoqiu’s status in Deathfire Academy was not low, he was still not qualified to ask about the things Kehr handled.
It was this undead girl named Yan Di who had very interesting origins.
She could have Kehr personally recommend her to join the Deathfire Academy, and could also cause the Deathfire Academy to have her participate in the selection competition; one could imagine the relationship between Shen Yanxiao and Kehr.
After observing Yan Di carefully, Nock found that although she seemed to be no different from the ordinary purebred undead, her stance was clearly the standard posture of the soldiers in the army of the undead! Although she had deliberately exercised restraint, Nock still found some clues.
Nock already had an idea in his mind about Yan Di’s background. Perhaps, she was one of Kehr’s trusted men, or a soldier secretly trained by the army?
In any case, Nock had already categorized Yan Di as Kehr’s man.
And so, his acceptance for her words was also quite high.
In fact, Nock just really thought too much!
Kehr had nothing to do with Shen Yanxiao at all; at most, they were just the scout and the talent.
As for having the standard posture of the army of the undead and whatnot…
Shen Yanxiao had seen Sal’s men in the Hidden Dragon Continent, and this was enough for her to display the little details of an undead soldier, which actually misled Nock into the road of no return.
Luoqiu tried to say something, but Nock no longer allowed him to talk any further.
“All right, since it’s Kehr’s goal, I won’t meddle into it too much. I believe in Kehr’s ability to handle things.” Nock and Kehr belonged to two different systems and they never interfered with each other. Nock just wanted that human being to be killed; it didn’t matter who did it. He believed that Kehr would make the same choice here. The reason why Kehr allowed this human child to live up to now must be a part of his plan.
And Nock was not ready to meddle with his plan.
Seeing that Yan Di had succeeded in convincing Nock, Luoqiu’s heart fell to the bottom.
“Many thanks for Master Nock’s understanding.” Shen Yanxiao smilingly said.
“Good. You guys continue your training. Since you’re a team that Kehr has picked, I don’t think you will be too bad. I’m looking forward to the meeting of your team and our Royal Academy’s team in the selection competition.” As soon as Nock was done speaking, he turned around and walked away. Luoqiu had no choice but to follow, but before leaving, he gave Shen Yanxiao a vicious look.
Fengling and the other Royal Academy’s students also gave Zhanye and the others one last look, after which they followed after the two mentors.
After leaving the camp of Flaming Red Squad, the expression on Nock’s face suddenly changed.
“Luoqiu.”
“Yes.” Luoqiu responded.
“You hate that Yan Di?”
“Yes.”
“Rest assured, the things I promised you will definitely be fulfilled, but right now is not the time yet.”
“Master Nock!” Luoqiu’s heart jumped in joy.
“Sal has returned. The great army of undead only needs one commander, as for Kehr… It’s time for him to step down.” Nock’s eyes narrowed slightly. She was Kehr’s man, right? Very well. In the selection competition, he would make this girl named Yan Di the first sign of Kehr’s abdication.
“General Sal, the best soldier in the Howling Abyss!” Luoqiu’s eyes lit up. How could he forget that Sal and Kehr were arch enemies, and General Sal’s mentor was Nock!
