Having slain five Dou Di experts in one fell swoop, Xiao Yan finally turned his gaze to the four women before him.
Thanks to the pills Xiao Yan gave them, their previously weak energy quickly subsided. However, the four of them were still immersed in the shocking scene they had just witnessed and could not recover for a long time.
It wasn't until Xiao Yan's gaze lingered on them for a long time that the beautiful woman finally came to her senses. She then quickly pulled the three girls beside her and bowed respectfully to Xiao Yan.
"Thank you so much for saving us, sir. We will certainly repay you handsomely once we return to the academy!"
"Hehe, no need to thank me. I just didn't expect you to be from the North Sea Academy."
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman in front of her was immediately taken aback. Recalling Xiao Yan's earlier question, she realized that the reason he had saved them was because they were from the North Sea Academy.
Thinking of this, the beautiful woman felt a little awkward, but also somewhat fortunate. If it weren't for the reputation of the North Sea Academy behind them, the four of them would probably have really been defeated here.
"Could it be that you, sir, are also a member of my North Sea Academy?"
Looking at Xiao Yan, whose face was so young, the beautiful woman couldn't help but ask a question.
Speaking of powerful individuals who appear so young, there are others in the academy, but they have never seen one before. Now, seeing Xiao Yan so young and with such terrifyingly powerful cultivation, they couldn't help but make the connection.
However, Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, saying:
"I am not from the North Sea Academy North Sea Academy, but there is an old friend of mine there."
This so-called old friend naturally refers to Hai Mochen.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman's eyes showed even greater surprise. He was not from the North Sea Academy, yet he possessed such powerful cultivation at such a young age. This alone was enough to prove just how terrifying his cultivation talent was!
After exchanging a few more words with the beautiful woman before him, she even offered to lead the way. Xiao Yan was well aware of this; all four of them were injured and their cultivation was not particularly strong, so he was worried that they might encounter similar situations on their journey ahead. To avoid trouble, it would be best if they could travel with Xiao Yan.
As the beautiful woman spoke these words, the three girls behind her also blinked their bright, beautiful eyes and stared at Xiao Yan, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
People with great strength always possess a certain inexplicable charm, and Xiao Yan's previous display of power had already captivated these three young women. When they saw Xiao Yan smile and nod, a hint of joy flashed in their three beautiful eyes.
Then, Xiao Yan turned to look at the four Sea Tribe not far away. The four of them noticed Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan and quickly stepped forward to bow to him. When the four women saw this scene, they were even more surprised.
"You can leave now. Consider these pills your payment."
For half a month, these guys were quite diligent in leading the way, saving Xiao Yan a lot of time. Of course, these four guys also coveted quite a few of Xiao Yan's pills.
Seeing the bottle of pills handed to them by Xiao Yan, they quickly accepted it, their eyes revealing a hint of reluctance. Whether they were reluctant to part with Xiao Yan or the pills in his hand remained unknown.
Although reluctant, the four of them still respectfully bowed to Xiao Yan and then returned the way they came. Xiao Yan also smiled and turned around, and led by the beautiful woman, he quickly flew towards the North Sea Academy.
Along the way, the beautiful woman carefully inquired about Xiao Yan's purpose in coming to the North Sea Academy. After all, it was a bit too casual for them to bring him into the academy so easily just because of the word "old friend".
North Sea Academy is the highest institution of learning in the Origin Martial Continent. All its students come from all corners of the continent, and many of them have powerful backgrounds. If outsiders get involved and something goes wrong, even the academy cannot easily bear the responsibility.
Therefore, regardless of the other party's purpose or reason for entering the academy, they must find out the truth.
However, when faced with the beautiful woman's cautious questioning, Xiao Yan mostly gave vague and evasive answers, which made him particularly helpless. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful, wondering if he had been too inconsiderate in asking her to return to the academy with them.
However, at this moment, Xiao Yan asked a question that surprised the beautiful woman.
"Professor Liu Xuan, is Hai Mochen, the dean of the North Sea Academy, currently at the academy?"
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Liu Xuan's slightly pale face. She hadn't expected Xiao Yan to be able to call out the dean's name so readily. Even some students who had been in the academy for several years might not know who their dean was.
" Hai Mochen? Who is that?"
The three girls who hadn't clearly heard Xiao Yan's question immediately asked in confusion. Liu Xuan's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment, she gently shook her head and said:
"I don't know either. The Dean is rarely seen, and many people in the academy haven't seen him for years or even decades. Even some of the high-ranking elders of the academy are the same."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown. If that were the case, wouldn't the chances of seeing Hai Mochen on this trip be extremely slim?
"If you're in a hurry to find him, you could try to find someone; perhaps they know where the dean is."
Seeing the worried look on Xiao Yan's face, Liu Xuan frowned and pondered for a moment before speaking again.
"Oh, who?"
Raising an eyebrow, he thought, "This person must be extraordinary to know things that even the academy elders don't."
" Shui Miao is currently the number one student at the North Sea Academy. He is the only student in the past ten years to have personally met the Dean."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly. This meant that Hai Mochen acknowledged the latter's talent and ability.
Xiao Yan was naturally very clear about Hai Mochen's identity. Anyone who could be recognized by him was definitely one of the best among the younger generation in the world. If nothing unexpected happened, he would surely have a place on this continent in the future.
This top student from the North Sea Academy is no ordinary person!
" Shui Miao, it seems it's necessary to meet him."
