The ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍implications of this matter were too vast.

Previously, ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍in the assembly hall, I hadn't grasped the full picture; I had only gone over the meeting minutes and talked a lot with representatives of other clubs about the issue of “soul-substance repair.”

Now ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍that I was back, I naturally had to understand the full picture and incidentally use the Great Tree of Knowledge to replay and reconstruct the scenes of that time.

However, ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍after returning to the Bakery Club, Shi Ruizhi and Tan Han were clearly more interested in Ning, who was by my side.

Previously ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍at the United Club, many people hadn't presumed to ask; they knew I had some kind of special clone and thought Ning was one such case.

Though the appearance was different, in the past when I fashioned Extracorporeal Avatars, I didn't necessarily model them after my original appearance.

“Let me introduce you. This is Ning, also the King of Ancient Glacial Ice you've seen before.”

Facing the members of the Bakery Club, I didn't hide anything about this.

After all, they could be considered to have a fairly deep friendship with the Ancient Glacial Ice.

Furthermore, when Ning met Tan Han, I could clearly feel that Ning seemed to have a distinct emotion toward Tan Han, and it wasn't just Ning; Tan Han felt the same.

“W... What? She, she is the Ancient Glacial Ice?!”

Shi Ruizhi exclaimed in shock from the side.

It wasn't just Shi Ruizhi; Tan Han was also extremely surprised by this.

“Ning, let me introduce you. these few are all members of my Bakery Club: Tan Han, Shi Ruizhi, um... there is also one named Lucianne, but she didn't come. As for this one named Cleveland, you can understand her as one of the deputies of my will within the Witch Academy.”

“It is a pleasure to meet you. Although this counts as our first meeting, the images carved deep in my bloodline tell me that you once provided great assistance for the revival of my Ancient Glacial Ice race.”

“You overstate it, you overstate it. At that time, we were also forced by circumstances. I didn't expect we would actually have this kind of fate.”

Tan Han also hurriedly spoke, after which she subconsciously looked at me.

After all, she remembered that the King of Ancient Glacial Ice was Xiao Han’s clone!

However, she had also heard Xiao Han mention words about returning something to the other party, she just hadn't expected that when she saw the Ancient Glacial Ice again, Xiao Han had already done it.

As for Shi Ruizhi, she thought for quite a while before finally reacting.

Although she had amnesia, it didn't mean her memory was poor; once Tan Han nudged her arm, she quickly recalled.

“Yes, yes! This truly is fate! Um... I'll take the liberty to ask, your look... did you join the Witch Academy?”

“I have not, nor do I have any intention of becoming a Witch. I have merely manifested myself into this appearance.”

Ning shook her head and explained, though while speaking, she would glance at Tan Han from time to time.

It was as if Tan Han was the most special one among the crowd.

After a bit of simple small talk, Cleveland also quickly organized the key points of the matter for me.

I frowned as I listened, while Tan Han and the others just treated it as reviewing the situation one more time.

As for Ning, she sat to the side like a calm listener.

I didn't know if she had inherited the characteristics of the Ancient Glacial Ice, but Ning looked like an ice-cold beauty; to put it bluntly, it was something like a poker face, the type where emotions aren't displayed.

“Sigh... deliberate retaliation...”

After listening, I also sighed.

The occurrence of this incident was related to my actions to a certain extent.

However... there was no need for me to take all the responsibility upon myself.

After all, the instigator behind the scenes was the Wizard apprentice.

I wouldn't be surprised at all by whatever things a Wizard might do.

Even if I hadn't created the Earth-Sun Tragedy, would the Wizards have given up such a perfect opportunity when facing this Academy War of the Blood Slave Academy?

As for this death rescue, it was likewise very difficult.

The blood sacrifice ritual thoroughly destroyed the Myriad Connection Main Network Tree they had laid out in the Blood Slave Academy in advance.

Without the Power Network and the Root Network, it was extremely difficult for them to find the Witch Academy students among so many corpses.

After all, their Seed of Knowledge wasn't as convenient as the Seed of Great Knowledge, and even less so as free and unfettered as my Great Tree of Knowledge.

The Blood Slave Academy—only after a deep understanding did I realize that on the surface, it appeared to provide a large amount of blood-food for the Blood Clan Academy.

However, ruling an entire Blood Slave Peninsula with the strength of a single academy, its size was not inferior to even a common large-scale academy.

In a sense, the Lord Blood Clan Academy and the Blood Clan Affiliated Academy combined couldn't match the size of a single peninsula.

One must know that the blood supply of the Blood Slave Academy wasn't just for the students within the academy, but also for secret trades among various families.

Therefore, essentially what an entire peninsula was doing was no different from what the Blood Slave Academy was doing, except one was in the open and the other in the dark.

But with such a massive output of blood, the two Blood Clan academies couldn't consume it all.

It wasn't as if every middle and high-level Blood Clan member could afford the luxury of building a blood pool irrigated with blood in their own home, right?

Therefore, the lion's share of the stable blood-food output of the Blood Slave Academy was harvested by other academies.

The blood of blood slaves and ordinary people was refined through special transmutation into high-energy “blood crystals” and supplied to the Wizard Academy.

The Wizard apprentices were the true backers behind the Blood Clan.

One must know, what did it mean for the Blood Slave Academy and the Blood Slave Peninsula to be able to produce blood crystals?

It represented “stable supply” and a “stable and smooth Transcendent advancement system”!

When the Witch Academy moved against the Blood Slave Academy, why were the Wizards so jumpy?

On the surface, the Blood Slave Academy was the subordinate of a subordinate of the Wizard Academy, so why was it so highly valued?

Naturally, it was because of the stable output of Transcendent materials from the Blood Slave Academy.

The resources of the Main World’s Core Realm were relatively meager and couldn't produce many eye-opening Transcendent materials.

Tracing the source of most materials, they were basically related to the Earth Vein and terrain.

And a barren territory like the Blood Slave Peninsula could play to its strengths and stably produce extraordinary materials like “blood crystals” and “blood essence,” and even some byproducts like “heart-blood,” “blood of resentment,” and “filthy blood.”

One could see how high its value was!

Transcendent experts might not necessarily care much about this, but the students within the academy needed them very much!

Each stage corresponding to extraordinary and Transcendent had its unique needs.

The blood sacrifice ritual within the Blood Slave Academy was meant to prevent any accidents from occurring at the Blood Slave Academy, used to wring out the last bit of value, while incidentally meaning that such a good place would not be left for others to occupy.

At the end of this Witch United Club meeting, Olina also proposed the idea regarding the subsequent revenge of the Witch Academy.

Revenge must be taken!

Witches are absolutely very vengeful!

It had nothing to do with right or wrong, and nothing to do with schemes; it was only about the standpoint!

The anti-war sentiment of the Witch Academy had to be suppressed.

The games and struggles at the Transcendent level of the Main World had long reached the most critical moment; the incompetent would inevitably withdraw from this heartless strife.

The exit of a race was inevitably accompanied by the collapse of an academy.

Perhaps the Main World didn't have an obsession with “unification,” but in my view, the major trend was for the Main World to have only one voice, that of the Witch race.

Unfortunately, however, this meeting hadn't mentioned the planning for subsequent revenge.

They prepared to discuss it with focus in the next meeting, intending to first rescue everyone, settle the impact of this incident, and trigger the rage of everyone toward the other Transcendent academies.

Only then could they regroup.

But I thought that after experiencing this event, many actions of the United Club would likely be more cautious.

After all, people can't teach people, but events can.

“I understand the situation roughly. You can go about your business. By the way, how is Millian doing recently?”

“Millian is still in the Expansion Realm. Currently, she is learning about the changes in related industries under the intervention of extraordinary power, accumulating experience for the spread of extraordinary power in the Core Realm.”

“Is that so? True... the Expansion Realm is called the testing ground for extraordinary power. Although the extraordinary tone was set from the beginning, based on what I know, the situation in the Expansion Realm is also not optimistic.”

Ninglan Qiuyue still maintained some basic contact with me, occasionally chatting about problems in the Expansion Realm.

When I was free, I would also find time to respond to Ninglan Qiuyue’s questions.

After seeing off Cleveland, there weren't many people left here at the Bakery Club.

I looked at Ning; she seemed to get along quite well with Tan Han.

After all, one was the pure Child of Destiny of the Main World, and the other was the Protector of the world personally appointed by the Main World Consciousness.

A pity Lucine wasn't here.

Perhaps she, who was usually silent and untalkative, could also gain a friend.

To be honest, the Expansion Realm also had a Child of Destiny.

If I had known Ning and a Child of Destiny would get along so well, I should have let her meet Ninglan Qiuyue in advance.

She was also a Child of Destiny, and the Child of Destiny of the Expansion Realm at that.

“Aren't you going to continue chatting? You seemed to be having a good time.”

After Cleveland left, Ning looked at me, as if she were also about to leave.

“I only followed you over for some casual small talk. You look like you have other things to do?”

Ning shook her head and asked.

“There are indeed some other things, but they aren't urgent for me.”

My most concerning issue was naturally the Fool's Dream life experiment, but the Authority of the life sequence was stuck on the racial concept.

I needed to understand what consciousness was.

Although the Ancient Glacial Ice’s consciousness was born, my “consciousness gestation” technique was still one final step away from completion.

So at this stage, nothing was more important than accompanying this Ancient Glacial Ice.

In my view, the King of Ancient Glacial Ice was likewise a vital link for us to obtain trading chips.

“Is that true?”

“Naturally.”

I nodded.

“Or do you want to go for a stroll somewhere else? The Main World is still very large.”

“Then... I want to go to that Blood Slave Peninsula you all mentioned just now. Can you take me there too?”

Unexpectedly, Ning suddenly spoke up and followed my words to ask such a question.

“Of course I can, but is it convenient to tell me why?”

I asked.

“It's my first time hearing about so many people dying. Hearing your description, under the blood sacrifice, blood flowed like a river and bones filled the streets. I want to go see.”

“It is very dangerous there.”

I reminded her.

“Then will you take me?”

“I will.”

I nodded.

Although doing so was dangerous, I supported Ning in doing this.

I could roughly guess the reason Ning wanted to go see.

Regardless, those were also people of the Main World!

As for whether my and Ning’s appearance would attract Transcendents to move against us...

Unless it were two or more Transcendents, I had the confidence to lead Ning away safely.

If it wasn't a Saint Stage Transcendent, I might even have the confidence to leave the other party there forever!

No sooner said than done.

Ning’s executive ability was very high.

After bidding farewell to Tan Han and the others, I left the Witch Academy with Ning.

The Blood Slave Peninsula was still quite far from the Witch Academy.

However, under my spatial spells, we also quickly arrived at the surrounding territory of the Blood Slave Peninsula.

The blood sacrifice ritual there had ended, but the residual power had not dissipated for a long time.

Looking from afar, the blood-colored dark clouds even covered the surrounding territory.

The closer we got, the more we could feel that the drizzling rain of blood beneath the blood clouds hadn't stopped at all.

However, the crimson rain of blood was unable to wash away the tragedy on the peninsula.

The blood-water would only flow into the earth, allowing the flowers of the coming year to grow more lushly.

When we arrived here, we could only feel a patch of dead silence.

There wasn't any sound, to the point I couldn't even feel signs of life.

Whether it was the suburbs or the prosperous streets, everything appeared absurd in the rain of blood.

The air was permeated with a sweet, fishy scent.

When those blood-waters drew near me, they avoided me automatically.

I strolled in the rain, yet not a drop of rain touched me.

But this was merely a derivative application of the Cleaning Spell.

As for Ning... she allowed the rain of blood to drip onto her body.

She rejected the addition of my Cleaning Spell, and didn't carry an umbrella or wear a raincoat.

I just accompanied her quietly.

Until she stopped her steps.

“Do you have any insights?”

I spoke up first.

“The fear, despair, and helplessness permeating the air... for some reason moved my sorrow.”

“Are you feeling grief for the deaths of those ordinary people?”

I hadn't used Emotional Body Cultivation to make Ning empathize with the grief, but just as Ning said, here, even the air was mixed with those extremely negative emotions.

“Will you not feel grief?”

“I will... but I rarely show it directly like that anymore...”

I responded.

Not long after, I continued:

“Ning, based on what you know currently, do you feel those Transcendent academies should exist?”

“I don't know... but, I feel the Blood Slave Academy should not exist.”

“Behind it is the Wizard Academy, and the Wizard Academy has two top-tier allies.”

“...What are you trying to express? Do you want me to say they all shouldn't exist?”

“Hehe you are very smart. Then let me ask you in another way: do you want to expel all these messy Transcendent races from this Main World?”

“Is that possible?”

“Why not? Human effort can achieve anything.”

“Heh... then what should I do? Become the so-called Protector of the world?”

“Why do you say that? It's not like you can only do this once you become the Protector of the world. Rather, once you go do it, it doesn't really matter whether you are the Protector of the world or not.”
