Chapter 1688 - 1486: Destruction Tribulation

"Yes, not only that, but the fortune of Destruction City is also skyrocketing along with this child’s strength."

He Cheng smiled bitterly.

"Ye doesn’t even know when he will return from beyond the domain?"

Bai Jian sighed, "If he doesn’t return soon, Chaos Academy and the entire Chang Civilization will be finished."

"Returning is difficult!" Lu Xu shook his head.

"Ye alone is difficult, but what if he could team up with that young lord?"

He Cheng hesitated for a moment before speaking.

The young lord he was referring to.

Is within Chaos Academy.

His background is unknown.

His name is Chi Xiao.

It was half a month ago, when an elder of Chaos Academy was exploring the void, he happened to encounter him; at that time, Chi Xiao was severely injured and near death.

The elder of Chaos Academy hesitated for a moment but chose to help and save him, bringing Chi Xiao back.

Initially, no one paid much attention; after all, in eons, Chaos Academy had encountered many severely injured individuals whom they saved and brought back to the academy.

But this time.

It’s different.

Several days later, Chi Xiao’s injuries had recovered.

What’s terrifying is that after recovering, Chi Xiao’s martial arts realm was actually... actually at the Immortal King Realm!!!!!

The legendary Immortal King Realm!

Moreover, according to Chi Xiao himself, this wasn’t his limit, he was still recovering.

This is somewhat terrifying...

Fortunately, Chi Xiao was grateful and did not oppress or act ungrateful due to Chang Civilization and Chaos Academy’s weakness.

During this time, Chi Xiao was like a regular student in Chaos Academy, leisurely residing there, and was particularly friendly, occasionally guiding the students and even the Teaching Venerable and elders in the academy.

Chaos Academy’s favor towards Chi Xiao was increasingly growing.

It’s a pity, though; such a dragon of the Nine Heavens as Chi Xiao is destined to soar sooner or later.

"Ye teaming up with Chi Xiao?" Bai Jian shook his head, "If the old man isn’t mistaken, the main reason Chi Xiao hasn’t left Chaos Academy is mostly because of Ye’s sister, Ye Li..."

Lu Xu and the others also fell silent.

Because Ye Li and Feng Wuyun were specifically instructed by Ye Tian to be taken care of.

Thus, when Ye Li and Feng Wuyun came to the academy, Bai Jian and the other four did not dare to slacken.

Therefore, Chi Xiao’s affection for Ye Li couldn’t be hidden from the four elders.

However, the four elders didn’t stop him because Chi Xiao was only pursuing Ye Li respectfully and courteously rather than being obnoxious.

Hence, it’s impossible to stop Chi Xiao from pursuing his happiness.

Moreover, in the view of the four elders, if Chi Xiao’s pursuit of Ye Li truly succeeded, they would quite complement each other; Chi Xiao’s ultimate excellence was unquestionable, albeit it’s a pity that Ye Li seemed uninterested in him.

Bai Jian continued, "The three of you aren’t pure Sword Cultivators; your perception is inferior to mine, so you may not see through Chi Xiao, but I can faintly sense he appears gentle and friendly yet harbors a subtle arrogance, intrinsic to his marrow, his depth is too profound, and if my guess is correct, he never really regards us in Chaos Academy and Chang Civilization highly."

"That’s normal; he’s likely from a Second Level Civilization, if not a Third-level Civilization. It’s normal to disdain a Level 1 Civilization." Lu Xu sighed.

"Chi Xiao’s pursuit of Ye Li is fine; the fear is provoking Ye Li to annoyance." Bai Jian intently stated, "Then, when Ye returns, with Ye’s character, he’s bound to have a never give up clash with Chi Xiao."

Lu Xu and the others’ expressions changed.

Initially, they were contemplating the opportunity for Ye Tian and Chi Xiao to team up to resolve the Destruction City issue, but now...

"It’s not likely, is it?" He Cheng asked.

"How is it not likely? Ye Li’s information, I’ve already sent someone to investigate; you know, after my investigation, I have one thought—better provoke Ye Tian than Ye Li, Ye Li is practically Ye Tian’s reverse scale!!!" Bai Jian’s voice grew much louder.

"Thus..." Lu Xu’s gaze flickered and soon made a decision, "Then let’s find a reason to have Ye Li enter the No. 4 Spiritual Vein Array to cultivate."

Chaos Academy has a total of ten Spiritual Vein Arrays where vast amounts of Spiritual Energy from the underground veins are directly extracted; the Spiritual Energy is so rich that it continues to liquefy, making cultivation twice as effective for half the effort.

In these ten Spiritual Vein Arrays, people have been cultivating within them for years, either top-tier on the Monster List within Chaos Academy or top-ranking executives in the academy.

For someone like Ye Li, although her strength is also top-notch alongside her youthful age, ensuring she’s extraordinary, she doesn’t currently meet the qualifications to cultivate within the Spiritual Vein Arrays; however, if the four elders exert effort, it can be arranged.

Once she enters the Spiritual Vein Array to cultivate, others aren’t permitted entry, thus isolating Chi Xiao’s pursuit, minimizing Ye Li’s disturbances, preventing her growing annoyance towards Chi Xiao, and avoiding a never give up clash once Ye returns due to Ye Li’s disturbances.

This is to prevent potential issues before they arise.

An hour later.

Ye Li has already entered the No. 4 Spiritual Vein Array.

This news has spread throughout the academy.

Making many envious and jealous.

Why?

Yet, it’s only envy and jealousy; they dare not express it... because, as everyone knows, Ye Li is Ye Tian’s sister.

In a luxurious standalone pavilion.

A young man in elegant purple attire is drinking tea. It’s Chi Xiao.

Leisurely drinking tea, a faint smile on his face.
