Lu Yin didn't understand. If the Frost Immortal Fruit was ordinary, why would the Frost Immortal Sect record it and place it alongside the Yellow Springs and the White Dragon?
There had to be a problem.
"Right, it was Bai Xian 'er's idea to move the food park to Lu Tianjing. I was there at the time," Master Shan suddenly said.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "Bai Xian 'er's idea?"
Master Shan nodded. "Logically speaking, your wedding banquet should have been held at Lu Tianjing, but I don't know what Bai Xianer said to you, but you happily arranged for your peers to be at the food park. You even asked your family to move the food park to Lu Tianjing. However, this was a small matter, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
Lu Yin fell into deep thought. Had the food park been moved to Lu Tianjing so that it would be easier to attack?
Back then, he had really listened to Bai Xian 'er.
"Master Shan, is there a madman in the Lu family?"
Lu Yin suddenly asked.
Master Shan's expression changed. "Young Master, why are you asking this?"
Lu Yin looked at him. "It seems like you know. Tell me about this madman."
Master Shan's face paled. "There is indeed a madman imprisoned in the family, but we don't know the exact reason. We only know that Forefather Tianyi forbade anyone from visiting him or mentioning him. Young Master, please don't talk about him in the future."
Lu Yin smiled bitterly. "Forefather Tianyi is gone. What are you afraid of?"
Master Shan froze, and his expression darkened.
"Did that madman show up on my wedding day?"
"Of course not. Forefather Tianyi would never allow him to appear."
After that, Lu Yin continued to chat with Master Shan. Not long after, he called over the fat old woman and the others to see if they knew what had happened that day.
…
In the Astral Tree Realm, Bai Wangyuan had already returned and released the expeditionary army. Xia Shenji's clone had also appeared, and he was heavily injured. Xia Shenji and the rest didn't look too good.
When Bai Wangyuan returned, the first to speak was Mu Xie. "Since there's an agreement, you should abide by it. Don't let me find out that any of you didn't follow the agreement and attacked my junior, or I'll kill you."
Xia Shenji looked up. "What arrogance. Do you really think you can deal with any one of us?
The more arrogant you are, the easier it is to die. "
Mu Xie looked at him. "You're the arrogant one. Do you think they don't know that you have the power of time?"
Xia Shenji's expression changed.
Bai Wangyuan, Wang Fan, and the Dragon Ancestor remained calm. Xia Shenji's expression darkened even more.
"Even though time is mysterious, it's not invincible. Any kind of power can be controlled, and you're no exception. Xia Shenji, no matter if it was in the past or now, you're the most ignorant one," said Mu Xie before leaving.
Xia Shenji was furious, but he couldn't refute.
The Mist Ancestor shook his head. "Look, you've worked so hard to compete with Xia Shang, but do you know how your power of time was exposed?
It's because Xia Shang has it too. Haha. "After saying that, she also left.
Xia Shenji looked at Wang Fan and the others. "You guys already knew?"
"It's just a guess," Wang Fan said coldly.
Bai Ze continued, "Time energy rarely appears out of nowhere. Of course, it's not like it doesn't exist, so whether or not you have time energy was just a guess. We were only able to confirm it just now."
Xia Shenji narrowed his eyes. His hatred for Mu Xie was second only to Xia Shang.
Not only did this person obstruct him from killing Lu Xiaoxuan, he even revealed his power of time.
Bai Wangyuan and the others looked calm on the surface, but they were shocked on the inside.
Time energy wasn't just for show; it was indeed difficult to break through in a real fight. They all looked at Xia Shenji with fear.
Fortunately, Xia Shang had stolen his Mountain Sea Battle Technique, or else it would have been even more difficult to deal with.
At that moment, Xia Ziheng contacted Xia Shenji about Yi Xian Academy.
Xia Shenji was still angry, and he said coldly, "Tomorrow. Tomorrow it is. Otherwise, either the Food God breaks through or get the hell out of here." He then ended the call.
The Dragon Ancestor looked at him. "I told you to attack directly, but you just had to rope in some student. What a waste of time. You even gave Lu Xiaoxuan a chance."
Wang Fan stared at the Dragon Ancestor. "You shouldn't have hidden Prince Yu from us, or you wouldn't have been threatened by the Food God. Once Prince Yu appeared, even if he could break through, he would have failed. Prince Yu is enough to disturb his mental state."
The Dragon Ancestor shook his head. "Isn't it good to have one more Progenitor?
I'm sure that the Food God can't break through, so I didn't want to waste time. However, even if there's a one in a billion chance that the Food God can break through, it's still beneficial to the Starry Sky Tree. One more Progenitor means one more layer of protection for humanity, and even if the Food God breaks through, there's still a chance for negotiation. "
"Speaking of which, I'm more curious why they're hiding their Mountain Sea Battle Technique. This isn't Yi Xian Academy's style."
Xia Shenji was impatient. "No matter what the reason is, Yi Xian Academy will be disbanded tomorrow. If the Food God breaks through, it'll be fine. We'll just give him face and keep Yi Xian Academy, but the Mountain Sea Battle Technique will still have to be handed over. If the Food God can't break through, then all of you can either get the hell out of here or go to the back of the battlefield. There's no other choice."
They didn't care too much about Yi Xian Academy, but the Food God's attitude toward Prince Yu made them certain that he couldn't break through. There was nothing to fear from someone who couldn't break through.
Lu Xiaoxuan was still a bigger threat, so much so that they couldn't eat or sleep well.
With Xia Shenji's support, Xia Ziheng immediately relayed the message to Yi Xian Academy. He didn't even change his tone, but Dean Wen was so angry that he wanted to fight with him.
"Preposterous! Xia Ziheng actually threatened us and told us to get lost! If it wasn't for the Four Way Scales, then he wouldn't have been able to leave Yi Xian District!" Dean Wen raged. He had never been so furious before.
Firstly, the students had all been taken away by the Four Way Scales. Secondly, Prince Yu's appearance had caused the Food God to lose the right to threaten the Four Way Scales with breaking through. Furthermore, the Food God had helped Lu Yin once, which had caused the Four Way Scales to fall out with him. Yi Xian Academy was now facing an unprecedented crisis.
"Tomorrow?
How can it be so soon? "
Ce Donglai was shocked.
Dean Wen shook his head. "Xia Ziheng doesn't have the guts, only Xia Shenji. It seems like Lu Xiaoxuan's matter has caused Xia Shenji to completely fall out with him."
Ce Donglai replied, "Although Xia Ziheng is relying on Xia Shenji's power, it's hard to change what he's said. After all, he's a Half-Ancestor. If we don't leave tomorrow, then the Four Way Scales might send more than one Half-Ancestor to deal with us."
Dean Wen replied, "If they can't even beat Lu Xiaoxuan, then how can they be considered Half-Ancestors?"
Ce Donglai raised his brows. "Don't spout nonsense. Lu Xiaoxuan was able to solo four Half-Ancestors, which means that his strength is definitely not something that an ordinary Half-Ancestor can compare to. He's only at the third Origin Tribulation."
Dean Wen was only using this as an excuse to mock Xia Ziheng, but he did not look down on Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was only at the third Origin Tribulation, yet he had still managed to kill four Half-Ancestors.
This was the first battle record in history, and Dean Wen was impressed. Lu Yin was also considered half a mentor of Yi Xian Academy, which made Dean Wen even more pleased with him.
"What a pity. I wonder what's going on in the Abandoned Land," Dean Wen muttered to himself. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. "Could Xia Shenji's attitude be related to the Abandoned Land?
Did he fail in the wasteland? "
Ce Donglai was at a loss. They could not obtain any information about the Abandoned Land; only the Sovereigns knew about it.
Yi Xian Academy did not have a single student, so it was not unreasonable for it to be abolished.
Wen Shisui was handed over to Bai Wangyuan by Lu Yin, but all of the students from Yi Xian Academy had been taken away by the Four Way Scales. Wen Shisui was no exception. He did not want to join any of the Four Way Scales, so the only outcome for him was to be imprisoned. It was better for him to stay at Mount Supreme, but unfortunately, he did not know about the situation at Yi Xian Academy.
"The Food God is already preparing to break through, so we have to take a gamble no matter what. The secret of the Mountainsea Realm cannot be exposed, but there's not enough time. Just one day is not enough for him to calm down," Ce Donglai said.
Dean Wen's gaze trembled. "One day?
What a joke. If Xia Shenji has the ability, then he can personally take action. Otherwise, if he wants to rely on those Half-Ancestors to chase us away, then that's just wishful thinking. Lu Xiaoxuan dared to barge into Shenwu Plane to save someone and challenged four Half-Ancestors. Can't we even compare to him?
It's time for them to experience Wen Shisui's strength. Although he's dead, his will will not be extinguished. "
Ce Donglai straightened up. "Then let's take a gamble and see if the Four Way Scales can cover the sky in the Astral Tree Realm."
The next day, Xia Ziheng arrived outside Yi Xian Academy as promised. Wu Yao, Sir Yu, and Half-Ancestor Ji Feng and Half-Ancestor Liu Hua were also with him.
A total of five Half-Ancestors had arrived, pressuring Yi Xian Academy.
Dean Wen and the others knew that the Four Way Scales would act against them, but they had not expected five Half-Ancestors to show up.
"Ji Feng?
Liu Hua?
You guys are here as well? "Dean Wen was furious.
Half-Ancestor Ji Feng apologized, "I'm sorry, Wen Lai. We don't want to become enemies with the academy, but the world is unpredictable."
Half-Ancestor Liu Hua sighed. "You've given the Four Way Scales whatever they want. What can you possibly do in the current Astral Tree Realm?"
Ce Donglai sighed. "I never thought that you elites who graduated from the academy would turn around and attack the academy."
Xia Ziheng said sternly, "Attack?
What do you mean?
You still want to resist? "
Wu Yao stepped forward. "Wen Lai, does Yi Xian Academy want to become enemies with the Four Way Scales?"
Wen Lai raised his head. "That's exactly what I'm thinking. If you want to close the academy, then come and fight your way in." He did not waste any more words and immediately activated the academy's array.
The fire phoenix and dark phoenix soared into the sky and circled the academy. One clearly represented light while the other represented darkness, and the two had never met before. However, after the sourcebox array was fully activated, the two converged and formed a deadly sourcebox array that even Half-Ancestors would be wary of.
Ji Feng and Liu Hua exchanged glances and subconsciously retreated. They had graduated from Yi Xian Academy, so they were well aware of how terrifying the Fire Phoenix and Dark Phoenix array was. This sourcebox array was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, and it contained many layers of killing intent. It was the final protective measure that Progenitor Wen had left behind for Yi Xian Academy.
Xia Ziheng frowned. "Stubborn."
Wu Yao looked behind him. "I'll have to ask you to take action. After all, this is a sourcebox array that Progenitor Wen left behind."
Inside the academy, Dean Wen and the others watched a figure walk out of the void: Mu Shang, Heavenly Master Mu.
