The unexpected White Fang
The next day.
Jia Nan Academy is now back on track, and the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower is under repair. Elder Su Qian and others have discovered that there is still a continuous source of Heart Flame at the bottom of the tower. Since the Heart Flame is still there, the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower will be repaired again to provide training opportunities for the teachers and students of the Inner Academy.
Su Qian also sought out Xiao Yu immediately.
In Su Qian's study, Xiao Yu sat opposite Su Qian. Su Qian chuckled and said, "This crisis at the Jia Nan Academy can be attributed entirely to you. Little guy, tell me, what do you want?"
Xiao Yu shook his head and laughed, "Great Elder, you flatter me too much. If you're talking about how I dealt with Han Feng and the others, then the final Soul Hall was actually handled by the Ancient Clan!"
Su Qian said, "Regardless of the circumstances, the fact that this Ancient Clan intervened is due to a deep connection with you. Tell me what you want, and Jia Nan Academy will certainly not shortchange you!"
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "It's not that there's nothing I don't want. With my current strength, there's nothing left for me to learn at the academy. I just hope I can become an elder of the Jia Nan Academy and have the freedom to come Jia Nan Academy as I please!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Su Qian was taken aback and asked, "It's that simple? Don't you want anything else?"
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "That's all. But, Great Elder, will the academy support my efforts to establish influence in the Black Corner Region?"
Su Qian chuckled and said, "What, are you planning to establish a presence in the Black Corner Region?"
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "That's right. You have to be strong yourself to succeed. I don't want anything, I just hope my family is safe. But I've already offended the Soul Hall. If I don't establish my own power soon, I won't have anything to rely on when I enter Central Plains later, will I?"
Su Qian nodded slightly and said, "That's true. The academy won't interfere with anything after students finish their studies. Of course, you're about to become an elder of the Jia Nan Academy, so you'll also be a member of the Jia Nan Academy. I just hope it doesn't become a force like the Blood Sect or the Eight Fan Sect!"
Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "Of course not."
"However, you must also remember that you are an elder of the Jia Nan Academy. If you encounter any trouble in the Black Corner Region, you are welcome to come to the academy to find me. Jia Nan Academy may not have much strength elsewhere, but in the Black Corner Region, Jia Nan Academy is fearless!" Su Qian said solemnly to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu was also somewhat touched and nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.
After finishing that matter, Su Qian then inquired about Xiao Yan.
"The Heart Flame still exists within the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower, meaning the Fallen Heart Flame is still there. Under these circumstances, will Xiao Yan face any danger if he goes down there?" Su Qian asked.
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "There shouldn't be any need to worry. It takes a long time to devour a Heavenly Flames, especially since the Fallen Heart Flame also devoured the Sea Heart Flame this time. It might be a bit tricky for him, but I think it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, as you saw, Yao Lao is with Third Brother. The Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower should be safe!"
Su Qian nodded and said, "Alright, now that the bottom of the tower is sealed, the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower will soon be open as usual. It would be best if there were no problems!"
After leaving Great Elder Su Qian, Xiao Yu returned to his residence. In the living room, Cai Lin was sitting with Little Xiao Nian.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I will soon be able to freely enter and leave Jia Nan Academy. Three days later, we will head to Twilight City!"
Cai Lin's cool and beautiful face lifted slightly as she looked at Xiao Yu and asked, "Why is it Twilight City?"
Xiao Yu naturally wouldn't say it was because the system required him to sign in at the Blood Sect's headquarters in Twilight City. He said, "Before killing Fan Lao, I said that if I survived this battle, I would go to his lair and wipe out the Blood Sect!"
Cai Lin glanced at Xiao Yu and sneered, "I didn't realize you were such a trustworthy person!"
"Uh, of course, this trip to Twilight City was also to help you find medicinal herbs!" Xiao Yu couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.
Cai Lin didn't speak, but Xiao Yu could sense that Cai Lin's gaze was no longer so cold.
At the entrance of the Inner Academy, Elder Hai led Xiao Li out of the mountain range. Elder Hai keenly sensed a trace of energy fluctuation in the open space in front of them.
Just as the two were about to approach, several elderly men dressed in the robes of the Inner Academy of the Jia Nan Academy suddenly appeared from the open space in front of them, their eyes coldly fixed on the old man and the young man.
"Who goes there?" the elderly man at the head of the group asked coldly.
Elder Hai, naturally having no intention of clashing with the Jia Nan Academy, said, "I've come to find someone!"
Who to look for?
"Xiao Yu!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's name, the elders exchanged glances and asked, "Who are you to him?"
"Friend!"
"Second Brother!"
Elder Hai and Xiao Li each said something.
The elders were also surprised to find that one of the two was Xiao Yu's second brother. Although he was not strong, the powerful aura emanating from the white-haired old man standing next to him made them take him seriously!
"Wait here for a moment, we'll go and inform Xiao Yu first," the leading elder said before leaving.
Wu Hao walked into Xiao Yu's residence in the Inner Academy, followed by three figures—or rather, four figures.
Lu Man led Elder Qing, and Qing Lin and White Fang followed Wu Hao in. White Fang's huge body had shrunk considerably, now about the same size as Little Purple.
As soon as White Fang entered, he noticed Little Purple, who was resting with her eyes closed in the courtyard. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Oh ho, isn't this the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King? This guy is actually here? Wait, why is the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's aura so weak? Still guarding the house? What a disgrace to our magical beasts!"
Lu Man glared fiercely at White Fang and said, "Shut up, shut up!"
Wu Hao was walking in front, shook his head helplessly. He had only led them in for a short while when he realized just how talkative White Fang was.
As soon as Wu Hao entered the hall, he said, "Xiao Yu, these people are here to see you!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu, Cai Lin, and Little Xiao Nian all looked towards Lu Man and the others. Qing Lin, standing behind Lu Man, gave Xiao Yu a sweet smile.
Cai Lin, sitting to the side, frowned slightly, glanced at Qing Lin, then at Xiao Yu, and a feeling of unease suddenly welled up in her heart.
When White Fang, who was the last to enter, saw Cai Lin sitting in the living room, he exclaimed in surprise, "Queen Medusa?"
The joy and surprise in his words startled everyone, and Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow as he looked at White Fang.
"How come I didn't notice the beautiful Queen Medusa yesterday?" White Fang flapped his wings slightly and appeared in front of Cai Lin, chuckling.
Little Xiao Nian was startled by the black snake with several pairs of wings in front of her and quickly burrowed into Cai Lin's arms.
