Chapter 411: 409. Farewell As he stepped forward, the road leading out of the academy, which had few people in the early morning, began to resonate with whispers. Everyone recognized the Middle Profound Realm individual summoned by Elder Kui.
Elder Kui’s senior disciple, Ji Dong.
Ji Dong had recently broken through to the Upper Profound Realm. Although not renowned, being in the Upper Profound Realm meant that no number of Middle Profound Realm opponents could match him.
With such power, he could soon become a teacher among the academy’s students.
"Elder Kui is truly angry."
"Of course, when his own disciple, a relative, is severely injured in the academy, it’s indirectly a slap to Elder Kui’s face, isn’t it?"
"But calling a..."
The speaker intended to say that calling someone from the Upper Profound Realm was bullying, but upon inadvertently meeting Ji Dong’s cold gaze, he hurriedly shut his mouth.
Lin Kewu and Wanyan’s expressions changed as they sensed Ji Dong’s realm.
Wanyan hurriedly spoke, "Teacher, a few days ago, it was Senior Brother Akun who requested to enter the arena, not Lin Kewu’s fault. You calling Senior Brother Ji Dong, is this not somewhat..."
"Somewhat what?" Elder Kui directly interrupted Wanyan and cast a cold glance at her, "Are you well-versed with the cultivation technique I gave you? Now you’re still indulging in romance, lacking ambition, planning to re-cultivate for a decade to reach the thirteenth realm again?"
Two questions left Wanyan stunned.
She was at a loss for words.
In truth, there were plenty of retorts swirling in her mind, but she couldn’t express them.
The more she spoke, the worse the situation would become!
But, though she remained silent, Lin Kewu spoke, "Wanyan, leave Qi Bing Academy with me. I have a way for you to ascend to the Divine Profound Realm without re-cultivating."
The Immortal Sect has the Nirvana House.
Re-cultivating has never been a problem.
However, at this moment, Wanyan remained silent because her full attention was on Elder Kui.
"Nonsense. So young and already speaking nonsense. If such a method existed, who would still fret over ascending to the Divine Profound Realm?" Elder Kui flicked his long sleeve and stepped backward, "Wanyan, return to your cultivation room and re-cultivate... Ji Dong, avenge your junior brother."
"Teacher!"
Wanyan abruptly stepped forward, blocking Ji Dong’s path.
"Block again, and I’ll expel you from the sect." Elder Kui growled at Wanyan, suddenly feeling it was not worthwhile for Akun and Linsan. The opportunity to enter the Inner Courtyard was something they had begged of him.
After Linsan and the others were hurt, Wanyan not only ignored it.
But now she was protecting the one who injured them.
Hearing this, Wanyan’s heart sank, yet when she glanced at Lin Kewu, her resolve hardened, "Teacher, if you want to punish Kewu, let Senior Brother Ji Dong step over me first."
Everything Lin Kewu did was to prove himself to her.
No matter what, she wouldn’t let anything happen to Lin Kewu.
Seeing his junior sister speak so firmly, Ji Dong turned to look at Elder Kui.
His little junior sister was blocking him, should he act or not?
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Elder Kui’s brow furrowed as he said "good" three times in a row.
As his words fell, Elder Kui raised his hand and gathered Qi to the corner of his robe.
Cutting ties!
From now on, there would be no connection!
"As you wish, I won’t indulge you!" Elder Kui coldly flicked his sleeve, and Ji Dong moved.
But just as Ji Dong was preparing to push Wanyan aside, Lin Kewu stepped forward, "Wanyan, be careful."
With one hand, Lin Kewu met the hand aiming to push Wanyan aside, and with the other, he wrapped around Wanyan and flung her backward. He pulled Wanyan back, but faced Ji Dong himself.
"Humph!"
Ji Dong snorted coldly and punched out.
Lin Kewu quickly raised his wrist to defend himself, yet the next moment, his entire arm went numb, and he felt as if he’d been slashed by the "Knife-Wielding Man" in the Fierce Beast Trial Ground.
He staggered back over a dozen steps before steadying himself.
...
Inn.
After a sleepless night, Wen Ping prepared to go to the Hundred Sects Alliance early in the morning.
Calculating carefully, the letter should have arrived.
Wen Ping asked frequently about his father’s whereabouts in the past few days, but Lan Peng kept saying he didn’t know.
Back then, his father was taken away by others, and Uncle Lan’s only knowledge was that those who took his mother handed his father to Iron Mountain Pavilion, and supposedly his father was still at Xuanse Lake.
