91: Exit early

"How about it?! We can split the loot fifty-fifty!"

Xiang Tiange looked at Lin Ye with an excited expression.

After receiving a nod from him, the smile in his eyes deepened.

Last time, those old fogies stopped us, but this time, if the two of us go, we can strike quickly and decisively, and we will definitely be able to bring those things out!

"By the way, do you know that Disciple from the Profound Moon Holy Land on the stage?"

Upon hearing Xiang Tiange's question, Lin Ye naturally knew who he was talking about.

He nodded immediately, indicating that they knew each other.

"No wonder, he kept cheering for you. It seems you two are friends. I sensed a temperament in him that is somewhat similar to yours."

Xiang Tiange looked up at where Chu Hao was, then lowered his head and continued: "But strangely, I feel like I've met you too late, yet towards him, I feel hostility, even though in my eyes, he is no different from an ant right now."

"Why do two similar people give me such completely opposite feelings…"

Xiang Tiange seemed to be asking Lin Ye, or perhaps asking himself.

Lin Ye and Chu Hao were completely different in terms of cultivation, Realm, Dao techniques cultivated, and even appearance.

If there was any similarity, it was probably that both were a Son of Destiny.

From the previous stare-down between Xiang Tiange and Chu Hao, Lin Ye knew that the destined rival in Xiang Tiange's fate must be related to this Son of Destiny, Chu Hao.

Xiang Tiange was not a part of his own "plot," so naturally, he would not harbor hostility toward him.

As the two spoke, battles were continuously taking place on the arena.

These Sequence Disciples were each displaying their Divine Ability, with Bao techniques flying everywhere, drawing gasps from the Cultivators on the high platform.

It must be said that to be able to fight their way out of hundreds of thousands of Disciples and become a Sequence Disciple, none of them were pushovers.

Furthermore, their attacks were extremely ruthless.

Basically, after this round of battles, apart from Lin Ye and the Xiang Tiange who had a bye, no one else had made it to the second round unscathed.

Even Gong Xiang, in order to withstand that giant sword, had consumed a large amount of his Qi and blood energy.

After half a day, the first round of battles finally concluded.

The Elder looked at the swaying winners and then said: "Everyone, if we have them proceed directly to the second round now, it would be somewhat unfair. How about this? You may rest at my Righteous Qi Sect for one night, and tomorrow will be the time to determine the Saint."

"I hope everyone can understand."

Hearing what the Elder said, many factions revealed expressions of joy.

As for the words "Righteous Qi Sect," they were completely ignored; what they were happy about was being able to stay in this Supreme Bliss Holy Land for one night.

There were just too many things that could be done in a single night.

Everyone had come to this Supreme Bliss Holy Land to observe the ceremony with their own agendas. For example, the Profound Moon Holy Land, Galan Temple, and the Academy—why would three Righteous Path factions come to observe a ceremony at the Demonic Path for no reason? Naturally, they had their own motives.

Now that they heard they could stay here for a night, how could they not be delighted?

Among these three Righteous Path factions, only Chu Wuhai looked at the Lord of Blissful Demons with some shock.

"You want us to stay here for a night?"

"Could he be trying to shut the door and beat the dog… Bah!"

"I am no dog. Well played, Lord of Blissful Demons, you have a good scheme, but who do you think I am?"

"Back before I became the Master, everyone called me the infallible Chu Wuhai. Using such petty tricks in front of me is completely showing off before an expert!"

Thinking of this, Chu Wuhai sneered, then stood up and walked to the front of the Lord of Blissful Demons.

"Brother Dao, I only set aside one day to observe the ceremony. It's a pity it hasn't finished yet. I would like to stay, but alas, there are truly matters at the Academy that need to be addressed."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, not to mention the Lord of Blissful Demons himself, even the Buddha and the Mystic Moon Holy Master looked at Chu Wuhai in surprise.

One had to know that the Academy was always known for "meddling in other people's business."

Now that the Supreme Bliss Holy Land had undergone such a huge change and even renamed itself the Righteous Qi Sect, they were not even going to intervene? Not to mention intervening, they were actually going to leave directly?

Those who understood Chu Wuhai all fell silent.

To say that Chu Wuhai had no other motives, they wouldn't believe it even if they were beaten to death; they were not idiots.

When those Sequence Disciples were fighting just now, Chu Wuhai had been staring fixedly below. Clearly, he wanted to firmly remember these young Prodigies.

As for why he wanted to keep these Prodigies in mind, everyone understood tacitly.

Because the battles were so intense that they couldn't be finished in one day, shouldn't you, the Academy, be the happiest? What is the meaning of you leaving now?

Seeing Chu Wuhai say this, the Lord of Blissful Demons stood up while enduring the pain in his body. This movement pulled at his wounds again, and his face twisted somewhat.

"Brother Chu… if you leave now, it would truly be a pity."

"Hahahaha."

Chu Wuhai laughed out loud. He had already seen the twisted face of the Lord of Blissful Demons. Sure enough, his guess was correct.

This brat just wanted to shut the door and beat the dog.

On the territory of the Supreme Bliss Holy Land, who knew what kind of "surprise" they had prepared for them? Chu Wuhai considered himself a smart person, so naturally, he would not fall for it.

"Brother Dao, you are too polite. I observe that the Disciples of your Sect are all dragons and phoenixes among men; I believe their reputation will soon spread across the entire Southern Region, right? I will congratulate you in advance here. However, there are indeed matters waiting for me at the Academy, so I will not stay any longer. Farewell!"

After saying this, Chu Wuhai immediately took the people from the Academy and left, showing no intention of lingering.

Seeing Chu Wuhai's actions, everyone frowned. Was he really going to leave? Was this not a ploy of playing hard to get?

When did the Academy, or rather Chu Wuhai, change his temperament?

It was truly strange.

However, although it was strange that Chu Wuhai wanted to leave, they would not follow him, because they each had their own respective agendas.

"Then let the Elders arrange rest for the guests. I have some matters to attend to now…"

The Lord of Blissful Demons said this while basically gritting his teeth; the wounds on his body were simply too painful.

He then turned and left, handing the guests over to the Elders.

Meanwhile, the group from the Academy, having already left the Supreme Bliss Holy Land, gathered on the flying boat.

The Teachers once again expressed their doubts.

Last time, it was because they were not sufficiently prepared and almost fell into their trap. This time, they had brought many people, and there were even some Old Ancestors hidden in the Void Realm.

As long as they received a signal from Chu Wuhai, they would attack in unison. The goal was not to destroy the Supreme Bliss Holy Land—that was unrealistic.

They just wanted to cut off the roots of that evil, such as Lin Ye, or the other Sequence Disciples.
