179 Suicide??? (1/2)

”Eh isn't that Daoist Ryuu, is he trying to commit suicide?”, remarked another from the group.

Tsuji with a panicked expression raced towards Ryuu as fast as possible screaming at the top of her lungs,...….

Meanwhile Ryuu was kneeling on top of the fort's wall as he glanced down with rapt attention his brows furrowed in deep thought, suddenly his senses went haywire as he simply jumped towards his right as a sword flashed on his hands as he got ready to deal with the transgressor only to be confused as he saw a woman passing through where he was previously as if trying to tackle him while shouting out at the top of her lungs,”...SUICIDE.”

A chill ran down his spine at that was the person trying to assassinate him by using some suicide attack his eyes widened as he realized that this person must be someone related to those scum he defeated yesterday no matter who they are he will defeat them.

The figure turned herself towards Ryuu as she shouted out as she spoke, ”Ryuu, why are you trying to commit suicide, tell me what owes you I will help you.”

Ryuu was stunned as he heard what the woman was saying, and as he looked towards the deranged woman he recognized her as his eyes widened, ”Senior Tsuji what are speaking about? Why would I try killing myself?”

The now 'deranged' woman whom Ryuu recognized as Tsuji spoke, ”Then why are you kneeling near the ledge like that if not for committing suicide?”

Ryuu had a deadpanned look on his face as the sword disappeared from his hand as he spoke, ”Senior, you know how to jest, I saw something dangerous growing from the moat as such I was searching for a better vantage point to have a closer look.”

By then the Headmistress along with Yura and Katsumi had also made their way towards where Ryuu was standing as they heard Ryuu's reason Yutsuko stepped up as she spoke her voice full of authority as she flared her aura a little bit, ”Greetings Junior, my name is Yutsuko I am the Head of the 'Golden Immortal Fairy' academy, on behalf of my academy I wish to thank you for protecting the honor of my students.”

Ryuu cupped his hands as he gave a small bow while speaking, ”Greetings Senior, and it was nothing any respectable cultivator would have helped them.”

Yutsuko looked at Ryuu intently before speaking, ”Junior I cannot help but overhear your conversation with Princess Tsuji, what kind of dangerous creature are you speaking of.”

Ryuu spoke with a serious frown on his face as he spoke, ”Senior, actually I noticed a certain plant growing from the moat near the fort's wall directly below where I was standing.”

The group landed on top of the wall as they peered down towards the moat's water as Ryuu stood beside them as he pointed towards the plant as he spoke, ”Over there senior the plant was the one I am speaking about, the plant is mostly submerged under water as such I was unable to determine the exact type of plant it is.”

Yutsuko peered down her eyes narrowed, ”Oh and what type of plant do you think it is?”

Ryuu: ”I have narrowed down two possible types of plants 'Devil's Enlightenment Lotus', and the 'Famine God's Lotus', but I am unable to discern between them they look so alike from up top.”

Yutsuko gave a small smile as she spoke, ”Impressive child you have been taught well by your teacher and as for the type of plant you should already know we have to discern by looking at its stem but because of the murky water it will be difficult.”

Yura asked curiously, ”Teacher, What type of plants are the above two?”
