Jia Nan Academy
After recognizing the newcomers, Huo De and the entire Law Enforcement Team, even Xiao Yan standing next to Xiao Yu, all bowed respectfully to the old man and said, "Dean!"
Xiao Yu's gaze also fell on Hu Gan. So this was the dean of the Outer Academy Jia Nan Academy. It seemed that his strength was at the Peak Dou Emperor. He didn't expect that Cai Lin's move would bring out the head of the Outer Academy.
Hu Gan nodded slightly and smiled as he looked at Xiao Yan, saying, "I remember, isn't your name Xiao Yan? You seem to be one of the top students in the Outer Academy!"
Xiao Yan, however, showed no sign of stage fright and said with a faint smile, "Dean, it was just a fluke!"
"Hehe, you can't become a top student in the Outer Academy by luck!" Hu Gan chuckled, then turned his gaze to Xiao Yu beside him and asked, "And who is this?"
Xiao Yu said softly, "Dean, my name is Xiao Yu, and I am also from the Xiao Clan in Wu Tan City. I am a student at the Jia Nan Academy, and my tutor is Instructor Ruo Lin!"
Hu Gan frowned slightly. After all, he was the dean, and it was impossible for him to remember everyone clearly, especially since Xiao Yu was visiting Jia Nan Academy for the first time.
Standing to the side, Huo De reminded her, "Dean, that's Instructor Ruo Lin, the troublesome student from Yellow Class Two who took two years off. This is her first time visiting the academy!"
As he said this, Hu Gan finally understood. After all, Xiao Yu was a fairly well-known figure in the Outer Academy. Firstly, Xiao Yu was the first person in the Jia Nan Academy in many years to ask for a two-year leave of absence right away. Secondly, his troublesome granddaughter Hu Jia, often mentioned Xiao Yu in front of him!
Hu Gan looked at Xiao Yu standing before him, his aura as deep as an abyss. Xiao Yu seemed to be veiled in a light gauze, making it impossible for Hu Qian to discern his cultivation level. Hu Qian thought to himself, "It seems he's using some kind of concealment technique. But judging from the little guy's appearance, he should be at least Da Dou Shi, right?"
Finally, Hu Gan's gaze fell on Cai Lin, and he said in a deep voice with a somewhat solemn expression, "No matter who you are, if you come to the Jia Nan Academy, you must restrain your emotions. Otherwise, even if you are Dou Zong, Jia Nan Academy will forcefully suppress you. I hope you will not be arrogant!"
Cai Lin stared coldly at Hu Gan, seemingly unwilling to back down. At this moment, Xiao Yu stepped forward and said, "Dean, this is someone I invited to protect me, and we have a complicated relationship. So, could you perhaps let her enter Jia Nan City as well? I can guarantee she won't cause any trouble!"
Hu Gan breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing Xiao Yu's words. After all, he had seen that this alluring woman hadn't caused a huge scene thanks to Xiao Yu's intervention. Otherwise, with her Dou Zong strength, probably only those old guys in the Inner Academy of the Jia Nan Academy could have stopped her!
After thinking for a moment, Hu Gan nodded slightly and said, "Alright, since you're the guarantor, I can make an exception and agree to this."
Xiao Yu smiled faintly upon hearing Hu Gan's words. Hu Gan then said, "Since you are Ruolin's students, you should hurry up and go to Jia Nan City Academy to participate in the Inner Academy Selection Tournament. Don't waste time here!"
Huo De hurriedly said, "How about this? Our Law Enforcement Team can have griffins take you there. There's a large primeval forest between here and Jia Nan City, teeming with fifth- and even sixth-tier magical beasts. Using griffins will be faster, since the Inner Academy Selection Tournament starts tomorrow!"
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Since you're in such a hurry, we can go by ourselves."
"You guys go there yourselves?" Huo De asked, somewhat taken aback.
Hu Gan smiled wryly and said, "Little guy, since you don't want to ride the griffin, how about you come with me?"
Xiao Yu shook his head slightly, and the Purple Cloud Wings suddenly stretched out from his back. The purple wings caused the surrounding crowd to show a horrified expression. At the same time, a pair of black and purple wings also stretched out from Xiao Yan's back. This scene made the surrounding people somewhat numb.
"This, this is Dou Qi Wings?" Huo De murmured, his mouth dry.
After observing for a while, Hu Gan shook his head and said, "No, this seems to be a rare Flying Dou Technique. I really didn't expect that you two brothers would each have one of such a rare Flying Dou Technique!"
Hearing Hu Gan's slightly wistful voice, Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "Just lucky. Alright, Dean, let's hurry to the Jia Nan Academy!"
Hu Gan nodded and said, "Now that you have Flying Dou Technique, you don't need to ride the griffin anymore. Let's go!" With that, Hu Gan's pair of Dou Qi Wings flapped slightly, and he took off. Xiao Yu and Xiao Yan followed closely behind, while Cai Lin simply touched the ground with his feet and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
A group of stunned Law Enforcement Team were left at the entrance of the town, unable to recover for a moment.
Outside the Jia Nan Academy, in this vast primeval forest, there are numerous high-level magical beasts. However, when Xiao Yu and his group flew through this area, they did not sense the aura of any high-level magical beasts. Hu Gan glanced back at Cai Lin, who was following behind as if strolling leisurely. Perhaps the high-level magical beasts along the way sensed the aura on Cai Lin's body.
Cai Lin glanced at the forest below with her beautiful eyes. She still carried the aura of the Seven-Colored Heavenly Python. When she passed by, all the magical beasts were too scared to show their faces. Even Sixth-Tier Demonic Beast dared not provoke this beautiful snake, let alone fifth-order or even lower-order magical beasts!
Xiao Yu and the others moved quickly, and in just half a day they followed Hu Gan directly into the Jia Nan Academy. Hu Gan led Xiao Yu and the others directly to a unique and elegant pavilion.
"Instructor Ruo Lin!" Hu Gan's calm voice suddenly entered the pavilion. In the room in the pavilion, Instructor Ruo Lin was lying on the bed, suddenly woke up. She clearly heard a voice calling her name. After getting up and dressing, she opened the door and walked outside.
At the same time, Xun'er, who was in another room, suddenly woke up. She seemed to sense something and prepared to get up and look out the window!
As Xiao Yu and the others stood in front of the pavilion, they saw the lights in the rooms inside turn on, and then the door opened, from which a woman walked out—none other than their Instructor Ruo Lin, whom they hadn't seen for two years!
Ruolin came out, she saw Hu Gan and the others standing in front of the door. She was slightly taken aback, then bowed to Hu Gan and said, "Dean, what brings you here so late at night?"
Hu Gan said with a faint smile, "I've come to deliver a troublemaker to you!"
Hu Gan's words made Ruolin look at Xiao Yu and Xiao Yan behind Hu Gan. She often saw Xiao Yan and recognized him at a glance. However, she hadn't seen Xiao Yu for the past two years and he had grown up a lot. He just looked familiar. As for the beautiful and charming woman behind him, she had never seen her before!
"Dean, what do you mean by that?" Ruolin asked with a wry smile.
Hu Gan chuckled and pointed at Xiao Yu, saying, "Do you recognize this person?"
Ruolin looked closely at Xiao Yu, and suddenly the face merged with the face she remembered. She paused for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "You are... Xiao Yu?"
