Was That All the Alliance Association Wanted?

Green Luo Continent, in the Southern Region.

Inside the Returning Balance Academy.

The bells still ring on time as always.

Schools across the country have reopened, and disciples are gradually returning to the Dharma practice grounds to cultivate themselves.

Except for the Dao-Nurturing Pool, which was completely sealed off, most places have been restored to their original state.

Ye Li did not intend to overturn all the existing systems and start over.

These disciples were already used to life at the academy; until a better arrangement was made, they should continue their cultivation as usual.

As for those overly strict rules, he changed quite a few of them.

The disciples who ranked lower still did not receive any rewards.

However, the essential Treasure Medicine for maintaining spiritual practice were distributed as usual.

If there is an emergency requiring you to leave the hospital, you no longer need to wait months or even years to receive permission.

After the message was passed down...

Many disciples still couldn't believe it even after they personally received the Treasure Medicine.

Ye Li himself simply wandered around the academy at will.

An Ziqing was not with him.

Occasionally, someone would muster the courage to approach and greet him, and he would nod slightly and casually respond with a few words.

Such a sight left several people nearby looking at each other in bewilderment.

When they killed the elders and the True Person Immortals, they never imagined that this person could be as peaceful as a teacher in private!

I don't kill people when I speak!

The Alliance Association monks guarding this place also witnessed all of this.

My feelings were a bit complicated for a moment.

While it's true that this Palace Heir acted domineeringly, she didn't indiscriminately make things difficult for them.

Reasonable requests will usually be granted.

Even after being asked to stay and wait here, he still hasn't left.

It seems that things might not necessarily turn out badly afterward.

The next day, dawn broke.

True Person Shoujing rushed to the Returning Balance Academy and, led by several Manager, arrived at the main residence.

Inside the hall.

Ye Li sat in the chair, resting with his eyes closed.

True Person Shoujing glanced at him, and couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion.

So young!

That deep, rich aura of blood was undeniable; even without deliberately releasing it, she could feel the terrifying power it contained.

No wonder Mingzhang fell into this man's hands.

She slightly bowed and introduced herself:

"Clear Heart Temple; Shoujing."

"I am truly sorry to have troubled you, Your Palace Heir, to wait for me."

Ye Li opened his eyes and looked at her, saying:

"What is it? Speak."

True Person Shoujing nodded and said:

"Regarding the follow-up arrangements for the Returning Balance Academy, I would like to invite Palace Heir to the alliance's branch for a discussion."

"... Is that all?"

Ye Li was somewhat surprised. "You've kept me waiting since yesterday for just one sentence?"

"It was indeed our fault for keeping Palace Heir waiting."

True Person Shoujing quickly apologized:

"But this is by no means a trivial matter. Once we arrive at our destination, there are other things I need to discuss with Palace Heir."

Why can't you say it now?

Ye Li asked.

"This..."

True Person Shoujing hesitated for a moment.

Ye Li looked at her, then continued:

"It's inconvenient to talk about?"

"Then it can only be something I don't want to hear. Right now, you're the only True Person here, so you don't dare to say it, right?"

"..."

True Person Shoujing was slightly startled, then somewhat annoyed.

This kid... he's really disrespecting others!

She suppressed her smile and said seriously:

"Whether to go or not is, of course, up to Palace Heir herself."

"If even Palace Heir is not possible, it will be difficult for our Green Luo Continent Alliance Association to cooperate with Palace Heir in the future."

"The wording was quite restrained."

Ye Li nodded slightly, then suddenly asked:

"Have you altered the death records in [Dao-Nurturing Pool]?"

True Person Shoujing was taken aback at first, then frowned:

"No.

"Have you done anything that seriously violated the rules of the Alliance Association?"

Upon hearing this, True Person Shoujing almost laughed out of anger.

You yourself just killed several Manager of the Alliance Association, and now you're asking me if I've broken any rules?!

But what met those unfathomable black eyes was...

Her lips moved slightly, but she answered the other person's question first:

"No."

Ye Li looked at her for a moment, then looked away with some regret.

You can leave now.

"Does Palace Heir not wish to go?"

True Person Shoujing regained his senses and asked again.

"Certainly."

Ye Li said in a calm tone:

"As for your Green Luo Continent Alliance Association, take it or leave it."

"If you have any complaints about me, then unite and write another document."

"Let me know when you've chosen a location."

"I will personally visit you then."

"You..."

The True Person Shoujing's breathing became slightly sluggish.

She understood what he meant, of course!

But where does the other party get this confidence from?!

Ye Li didn't bother to explain further, and casually said:

"There's one more thing you'd better figure out as soon as possible."

"It is the Green Luo Continent Alliance Association needs me, not the other way around."

The words had been spoken.

The young man on the chair suddenly dispersed, transforming into a wisp of Pure Qi and disappearing into the hall.

"...?!"

True Person Shoujing's expression changed drastically.

Her Divine Consciousness swept across the surroundings instantly, but she couldn't find Ye Li's whereabouts at all!

Only a trace of lingering immortal Immortal Essence remained on the seat.

What else could it be?!

"A clone...!!"

True Person Shoujing stared blankly at the empty chair.

All the words he had prepared were now uttered in vain.

The one she was just talking to was merely an avatar?!

Despite being known for her keen observation skills, she failed to notice anything unusual from beginning to end!

Immediately afterwards.

A new question surfaced in True Person Shoujing's mind, startling her so much that a cold sweat broke out on her back:

'My clone is here...'

'Then where did he True Body?!'
