Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Chapter 227 Recovering the Lost Secret Book

In the early morning, the sun shone on the playground of the Soul Master Academy. Qin Feng was yawning as he walked towards the cafeteria. He and his friends stayed up late last night to study the newly learned sword skills, so now his head was dizzy and his eyes were blurry.

"Brother Feng, come and help!" Chu Tian's voice suddenly sounded behind him, sounding particularly urgent.

Qin Feng rubbed his eyes, turned and looked at Chu Tian, ​​and found that he was running towards him panting with a nervous look on his face.

"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry so early in the morning?" Qin Feng yawned and asked lazily.

Chu Tian grabbed Qin Feng's arm and said anxiously, "The secret book we treasured is gone!"

"What?!" Qin Feng woke up instantly, his eyes widened, "Are you talking about the book "Nine Styles of Dragon Shadow"? "

"Yes! When I went to see it in the morning, I found that the bookshelf was empty and the whole room was in a mess." Chu Tian nodded, his face full of anxiety.

Qin Feng frowned: "This is troublesome. That secret book is our most important thing, we can't lose it. Let's go and take a look!"

The two hurried back to the dormitory, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Zhang Meng and Ye Li pacing back and forth in the room, obviously looking troubled.

"Have you found anything?" Qin Feng asked anxiously.

Ye Li shook her head, looking a little frustrated: "We searched the entire dormitory and found nothing. And..." She hesitated for a moment and continued, "We just asked the guards, and they said that no one entered or left the building last night."

"That means the person who stole the secret book may still be in the academy." Qin Feng stroked his chin and thought, "We have to find him quickly."

Qin Feng and his partners immediately began a large-scale search operation. They checked every corner of the academy one by one, from classrooms to libraries, from training grounds to the woods behind the mountain, and even the toilets.

"This is such a huge project," Zhang Meng complained, wiping the sweat off his forehead. "How do we know where the thief will hide?"

"There's no other way. The secret book is so important that we can only look for it everywhere." Chu Tian sighed, looking a little helpless.

Just when everyone felt they had no idea where to start, Ye Li suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "Look, there's someone sneaking around over there!"

Qin Feng looked in the direction Ye Li pointed, and saw a thin figure hiding in the corner of the academy wall, holding a book in his hand and looking around furtively.

"Something's going on!" Qin Feng whispered, "Follow up and take a look."

Qin Feng and his companions followed the man quietly, being careful not to make any noise. The man was obviously alert and looked back from time to time. Whenever he looked back, Qin Feng and his companions would immediately hide in the bushes or behind the buildings nearby, fearing that they would be discovered.

"Do you think he is a thief who stole the secret book?" Zhang Meng asked in a low voice.

"Let's wait and see." Qin Feng responded in a low voice, "Don't alert the enemy."

They followed him all the way and finally came to an abandoned teaching building. The man looked around and made sure that no one was there before he quickly walked into the building.

"He went in." Chu Tian said softly, "Let's follow him."

Qin Feng nodded, and they followed him in carefully. The building was dark, with only a few rays of sunlight coming in through the shabby windows. The man walked to the door of a classroom and pushed it open.

Qin Feng and the others followed quietly behind, and peeking through the crack in the door, they saw the man standing in front of a tattered desk, holding the secret book of "Nine Styles of Dragon Shadow" in his hand, looking extremely proud.

"It's him!" Qin Feng whispered, "Let's go over there quickly!"

He was about to push the door open when he heard a deep voice coming from the classroom: "Well done, thief, you succeeded."

Qin Feng was startled, and quietly looked over, only to see a figure sitting in the corner of the classroom. The man was wearing a black robe, his face was blurred, but his voice was majestic and cold.

"As agreed, give the secret book to me now." said the man in black robe.

The thief hesitated, seeming a little reluctant: "But... you promised to give me a benefit."

The black-robed man sneered, "Of course, I never break my promise. Give me the secret book, and I will give you what you want."

When Qin Feng was considering whether to rush in, Ye Li suddenly pulled his sleeve and whispered, "Reinforcements are coming!"

Qin Feng looked up and saw that Director Liu Dehua and several guards were quietly approaching this side. They had obviously noticed the movement here and were ready to attack at any time.

Qin Feng was secretly delighted and signaled his friends to get ready. A low shout came from outside the classroom: "Stop!"

The man in black robe and the thief were startled at the same time and turned to look at the door. Andy Lau and the guards rushed in and surrounded the classroom.

"You bunch of little devils, how dare you ruin my good thing!" The man in black robe roared, drew a dagger from his waist, and rushed towards Andy Lau.

Andy Lau snorted coldly, swung the long sword in his hand, and fought with the man in black robe. The man in black robe was obviously no match for him, and after a few moves, he was forced to retreat again and again by Andy Lau.

Qin Feng saw this and immediately rushed in and snatched the secret book from the thief: "This book is not something you can touch!"

The thief was so scared that he backed away, begging for mercy: "I just took the money to do the job, please let me go!"

Qin Feng was too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned around to look at Andy Lau and the black-robed man who were fighting. Andy Lau swung his long sword, a dazzling sword light flashed, and the black-robed man screamed, the dagger in his hand was knocked away, and the whole person was also shocked and flew out, hitting the wall heavily and fainted.

After the battle, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and handed the secret book to Andy Lau: "Thank you for arriving in time, otherwise we really don't know what to do."

Liu Dehua took the secret book and nodded with satisfaction: "You did a good job. You must be more careful in the future. The remnants of the dark sect in the academy have not been eliminated yet, so you can't take it lightly."

Qin Feng nodded to show that he understood. The thief was taken out by the guards. Judging from his expression, he obviously regretted his behavior.

After returning to the dormitory, Qin Feng carefully put the secret book back on the bookshelf and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It was a close call today." Chu Tian said with emotion, "But we finally got the secret book back."

Ye Li smiled and said, "Yes, it is also a lesson. We must be more careful in the future."

"But now I just want to have a good sleep." Zhang Meng said with a yawn, and fell on the bed, snoring softly within a few seconds.

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling. Although so many things happened today, he was still somewhat fortunate in his heart - with these companions around him, no matter how big the difficulties were, he could overcome them one by one.

"Okay, time to go to bed." He whispered to himself and closed his eyes. A question came to his mind: Who is the man in black robe? What secrets are hidden behind him?

The question echoed in his mind like a mystery, but he soon fell into a dream, forgetting all his troubles for a while.
