Applying for a Position as an Elder at Jia Nan Academy

After casually killing a Dou Huang expert, Xiao Lin's expression remained completely unchanged.

After all, you get used to it after a while.

Moreover, this wasn't the first Dou Huang expert Xiao Lin had killed, so he felt no burden whatsoever.

If anyone's to blame, it's Jing Gui for his sharp tongue.

After eliminating Jing Gui, Xiao Lin naturally turned his attention to the five people from the Jia Nan Academy.

Faced with the gaze of a strange Dou Zong, not to mention the four students, even Huo Dian, Dou Wang, felt immense pressure in that instant!

Although this unfamiliar Dou Zong showed no malice towards them and even killed Jing Gui, who knows if he had any other intentions?

Don't blame Huo Dian for thinking this way about the person who saved their lives; it's just that this is the Black-Corner Region!

They say you can know a person's face but not their heart.

This is not the first time this has happened.

There was a time when a group from the Black-Corner Region attacked the Jia Nan Academy students, and then another group saved them.

Unexpectedly, this second group had even bigger schemes against the Jia Nan Academy!

If it weren't for the presence of the Qian Bai Er Lao at the Jia Nan Academy, the academy would have been breached by the enemy!

Therefore, Huo Dian was secretly on guard against Xiao Lin's gaze.

Xiao Lin naturally noticed Huo Dian's subtle actions, but he didn't say anything.

If you kill all the people from the Black-Corner Region, then you've definitely killed the wrong people.

But if you kill one and let another go, half of the bad guys will definitely escape the law!

This is the most accurate description of the Black-Corner Region!

Therefore, Xiao Lin was not angry at Huo Dian's subtle, wary actions.

"Thump~"

After defeating Jing Gui, Xiao Lin descended from mid-air and walked step by step towards Huo Dian other five.

Xiao Lin's action made Huo Dian even more nervous!

"Thank you for your help, senior. We will repay you handsomely once we return to the Jia Nan Academy and report to the First Elder. Please tell us your name, senior."

When Xiao Lin was still about four or five meters away from Huo Dian and his group of five, Huo Dian finally spoke.

However, the tension on his face was obvious.

After all, the person walking towards him now was a Dou Zong who had just killed Dou Huang expert!

If the other party wanted to, they could probably just raise a hand and scatter the ashes of all five of them!

Therefore, under these circumstances, Huo Dian would naturally prioritize lowering his stance.

Regardless of whether the other party harbors ill intentions towards them, it is essential to adopt a humble attitude when facing a Dou Zong!

Although the other person looked to be about the same age as him, in this dog-eat-dog world, the strong naturally come first, so there was nothing wrong with him calling the other person "senior".

"Don't be nervous, I mean you no harm. I just saw you coming out of a herbal medicine shop, and this guy followed you with ill intentions, so I followed him too."

As it happens, I also had some things to take care of and wanted to visit your Jia Nan Academy, so I took the opportunity to help.

By the way, my name is Lin Xiao, and I haven't been in the Black-Corner Region for long.

Xiao Lin chuckled as he answered Huo Dian's question, and at the same time, he stopped in his tracks to avoid making Huo Dian and the other four too nervous because of his proximity.

He did indeed have something to ask of the Jia Nan Academy, so there was no need to create any further misunderstandings.

At the same time, Xiao Lin also gave a false name.

As for the fake name, Xiao Lin imitated his future Flame Emperor, the Yan Emperor, by reversing his surname and given name.

Forgive Xiao Lin; he's really terrible at naming things.

From then on, he no longer concealed his true identity; his name became Lin Xiao!

Huo Dian had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the first half of Xiao Lin's sentence.

However, when he heard Xiao Lin say that he had something to do and needed to go to the Jia Nan Academy, he immediately became nervous again.

Therefore, he even overlooked Xiao Lin's final self-introduction.

"W-what, senior? You're going to the Jia Nan Academy?"

Huo Dian asked back, somewhat uncertainly.

At this moment, his previously lowered guard was raised again, and he even thought that Xiao Lin wanted to follow the example of the group from the Black-Corner Region and use the debt of saving their lives to enter Jia Nan Academy in order to do some shady things.

If that's the case, he'd rather die than let the other party get their way!

Yes, Huo Dian once again felt a death wish.

Seeing that Huo Dian's expression had changed, Xiao Lin thought for a moment and realized that the other party might have misunderstood something.

"Sigh, despite all the precautions, I still got misunderstood. Seriously, have people from the Black-Corner Region become this dishonest? I've only been here a short time!"

Xiao Lin thought to himself, feeling frustrated.

To avoid further misunderstandings with the Jia Nan Academy Elder, who clearly had a fiery temper, Xiao Lin had no choice but to wave his hand and take a step back.

"Don't rush. I do want to go to the Jia Nan Academy, but I don't have any other plans. I just want to find a job Jia Nan Academy."

This is how Xiao Lin explained it.

However, what he said left Huo Dian completely confused.

What does it mean to "find a job"?

He recognizes each word individually, but when they're put together, he doesn't quite understand.

"Senior, could you please explain in more detail?"

Huo Dian asked with a puzzled look.

"Um, I think I'd better keep it simple."

Looking at the Jia Nan Academy Elder in front of him, who seemed not very bright and had a rather fiery temper, Xiao Lin pondered for a moment before speaking.

Huo Dian: "..."

"Actually, it's quite simple. I'd like to ask if Jia Nan Academy still employs Elder, right? I wonder if, with my abilities, I could become an Elder at the Jia Nan Academy?"

Xiao Lin tentatively asked.

As for the idea of becoming Elder of the Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Lin had actually considered it for a long time.

After all, he would be spending the next period of time in the Black-Corner Region.

Given this, instead of finding a place to live in the Black-Corner Region and having to sleep with one eye open every night, why doesn't he simply choose to become an Elder at the Jia Nan Academy?

That way, at least he can sleep peacefully every night, right?

Moreover, if one were to serve Elder at the Jia Nan Academy, one could lead students on training trips to the Black-Corner Region and even utilize the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower for cultivation—why not?

From this perspective, wouldn't becoming an Elder at the Jia Nan Academy be the best choice?

Xiao Lin had to admire his own cleverness!

However, after Xiao Lin finished expressing his request, Huo Dian and the four students behind him were all so surprised that their mouths were agape.

Good heavens! Dou Zong actually wants to serve as Elder at their Jia Nan Academy!

Did the sun rise in the west today?

The five members of Huo Dian were utterly astonished.
