The academy is now almost deserted, as everyone is engaged in that great battle, resisting the powerful enemies from the God Realm. Su Chen made no move in the face of the sudden invasion by the powerful beings from the God Realm, but simply observed quietly.
"Master!" Jianxin rushed to Su Chen's side, covered in sweat and panting heavily, as if he had something of utmost importance to say.
"What's wrong?" Su Chen looked at Jianxin and asked.
"Senior brother... he's Qi Deviation!" Jianxin said anxiously.
"Why?" Su Chen asked calmly.
"Over the years, my senior brother and I have been in seclusion cultivating, and our cultivation has improved significantly. We have already broken through to the Mid-stage Immortal Emperor. However, my senior brother still feels that his current cultivation is not enough. Therefore, he went crazy to improve his cultivation and became completely obsessed. This also caused him to develop an obsession, which eventually led to him Qi Deviation," Jianxin explained.
"Didn't you try to persuade him?" Su Chen asked.
"I tried to persuade him, but he wouldn't listen," Jianxin said self-reproachfully. "Actually, it's also my fault. If I had tried to persuade my senior brother more, perhaps he wouldn't have Qi Deviation."
Su Chen nodded, saying nothing more. He turned to look at the bamboo house, a rare look of helplessness and complexity on his face.
At this moment, Qin Zixuan walked out of the bamboo house. He was tall and slender, with exquisite features, fair skin like jade, and an extraordinary temperament. Compared to decades ago, he appeared more mature and charming.
"Just let me go. Everyone from the academy went to that battle. I can't not go." Qin Zixuan looked at Su Chen, biting her red lips, her eyes filled with stubbornness.
"That battle is very dangerous. If you're not careful, your life could be in danger. How could I let you go?" Su Chen said heavily.
When the great battle began, Qin Zixuan wanted to help fight the enemy, but Su Chen stopped her. Su Chen's feelings for Qin Zixuan were quite deep, far surpassing those for Youyue and Ye Ningshuang.
Su Chen couldn't allow Qin Zixuan to have any accidents or be harmed in any way, which is why he tried his best to stop Qin Zixuan from participating in that great battle.
But Qin Zixuan had already made up her mind to help, so Su Chen had no choice but to imprison her in the bamboo house and forbid her from going out.
As for why Su Chen was so harsh on Ye Lingxi, Jianxin, and Lin Fan, it wasn't because Su Chen forced them to do so. It was because these three themselves had a goal of becoming stronger and wanted to become like him.
Therefore, if the three of them want to grow, they must go through all kinds of hardships and must not be complacent. Only in this way can they become true strongmen in the future.
Qin Zixuan was different. Qin Zixuan didn't have such a goal; she only wanted to be able to stand by Su Chen's side and accompany him. That was enough for her. This is why Su Chen didn't make the same demands on Qin Zixuan as he did on Ye Lingxi and the other two.
"Please, I'm begging you. As a member of Canglan Star, I can't miss this great battle. Otherwise, I'll definitely develop a mental block because of this in the future," Qin Zixuan pleaded, two lines of tears sliding down her cheeks.
Su Chen stared at Qin Zixuan for a long time, then sighed, stepped aside, and slowly closed his eyes. "Go."
Qin Zixuan was overjoyed, but seeing Su Chen's helpless expression, she hesitated for a moment, then went to Su Chen and kissed him directly. Without hesitation, she left the bamboo forest and headed to the battlefield.
"Master, are you really going to send Master's wife to that battlefield? It's very dangerous. What if something happens..." Jianxin stopped there and didn't finish his sentence.
"I won't let anything happen to her." Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on Jianxin. "You go too. As for your senior brother, I'll handle that."
"Alright!" Jianxin nodded emphatically, then turned and left without further hesitation.
Su Chen watched Jianxin's departing figure and said softly, "I hope that after this incident, you will all truly grow."
As he spoke, his figure had already disappeared.
The Demon Domain, a forbidden area for the Dragon Clan.
A magnificent stone gate floats in the air, tightly bound by iron chains and covered with runes, seemingly to prevent what lies within from escaping.
A man appeared in the arena, dressed in a long purple robe, exuding an aura of utter terror. His deep eyes gleamed with an unusual light, reflecting a mixture of emotions, including excitement and hesitation.
This man was none other than Ao Fen, the ancestor of the Dragon Clan. Decades ago, he was merely at the Immortal Emperor Realm, but now he has broken through to the First Level of Transcendence and is the most important figure in the Dragon Clan.
The Dragon Clan Chief had led all his clansmen to the great battle an hour earlier, but Ao Fen said he had something to attend to and would be there later.
"The clan leader and the others are a bunch of fools. They actually chose not to agree. You know, as long as we break this seal, we can go back over there and live a better life. It's a pity that the clan leader, that fool, refused. Humph, I'm not willing to stay here forever. I want to return to them." Ao Fen's face revealed an excited expression.
However, he quickly composed himself, and then soared into the air. The energy within his body surged and spread out, creating ripples. Rings appeared beneath his feet, shimmering with dazzling light.
Ao Fen clenched his right fist, veins bulging on his arm, and then unleashed a terrifying punch that transformed into a gigantic dragon phantom, roaring wildly and shaking the heavens and earth.
Bang!
A terrifying punch slammed into the giant gate, its power so immense it shattered space and time. The giant gate began to shake violently, the chains binding it snapped one by one, and the runes on the ground dimmed, but the giant gate itself remained intact!
Ao Fen unleashed another punch, this one even more powerful than the last. The chains on the gate snapped, and the runes turned to ashes, vanishing into the world.
"Hahaha, the seal is finally broken!" Suddenly, a wild laugh rang out, like ten thousand thunderclaps exploding in one's ears at the same time. The rolling sound waves surged and churned, stirring up time and space, and the heavens and earth trembled.
Ao Fen intently at the stone gate, his excitement barely concealed.
The stone gate opened, and a dazzling beam of light shot out, piercing the sky and spreading out, intertwining with various lights. Within the beam of light, hundreds of thousands of enormous figures slowly emerged.
dragon!
These hundreds of thousands of figures were all dragons, and Five-Clawed Golden Dragon at that!
Their bodies blotted out the sky, like moving mountains. Their casual breaths could cause mountains to collapse, Immortal Sea to surge, and space to distort, creating a terrifying spectacle.
"This Canglan Star is still the same as before, without any change." A Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, exceptionally terrifying, stood at the head of all the dragons, its scales gleaming, causing everything to tremble.
