Canglang City has undergone such a huge change, and the Xu family was almost destroyed. These were all things that her father had not told her, in order to prevent her from being distracted and affecting her cultivation.

  "In five days, I still have some things to take care of, after finishing them, I'll accompany you back."

  Liu Wuxie hesitated for a moment before speaking.

  "Alright, I'll come find you in five days."

  The two parted ways, Xu Lingxue returned to her residence, leaving Liu Wuxie and Chen Ruoyan standing in their original position.

  "Thanks for your help today."

  Liu Wu Xie excitedly said a sentence, today is not Chen Ruoyan's appearance, it's another scene.

  Even if he beheads Qin Shi, he will pay a terrible price, and this price may cut off Liu Wuxie's path to cultivation.

  "You saved me twice, but I only helped you once. To say the least, I still owe you one. But don't worry, with me around, Old Man Qin won't be able to kill you."

  Chen Ruoyan still had that carefree look on her face, but it was clear that these words came from the bottom of her heart.

  Liu Wuxie smiled slightly and didn't mind. The grudges between him and Qin Shi would eventually have to be settled, and he didn't want anyone to intervene.

  They chatted briefly, and Chen Ruoyan and Chen Leyao left. The place where they lived was already in disrepair, Liu Wuxie had nowhere to go temporarily, so he decided to go to Danbao Pavilion for a while.

  Twenty days later this duel, can't afford to lose, must make thorough preparations.

  Liu Wuxie's duel with the Vice President of Imperial Academy spread throughout the entire capital city in less than half an hour.

  No one thought highly of Liu Wuxie in this battle. Even if he had great skills, everything was futile in the face of absolute strength.

  Xīng Líng Jìng duì zhàn Diān Fēng Xǐ Suǐ Jìng, wú yí shì tiān fāng yè tán.

  Translation:

  The battle between the Spiritual Realm and the Washing Marrow Realm is undoubtedly a fantasy tale.

  With only twenty days left, Liu Wu Xie wants to complete a counterattack, which is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

  Tea houses and wine shops are all discussing this matter, and some people have even opened betting pools, with the odds of Liu Wuxie winning less than one in ten.

  These had no effect on Liu Wuxie, who came alone to the Imperial City and went to the Danbao Pavilion.

  Wanting to kill Qin Shi wasn't without a way, Liu Wuxie was in a dilemma, using which method would be the most suitable and effective.

  Relying solely on military strength, it was impossible for Liu Wushuang to defeat the Qin in such a short period of time, and even Liu himself knew that.

  Ordinary fighting is no match for Qin Shi, what if we resort to cunning?

  As for means, who can surpass Liu Wuxie?

  Qigong, talismans, alchemy, martial arts, Liu Wuxiang is proficient in all of these.

  Since there is no shortcut in martial arts, then start from other aspects.

  "Mr. Liu, our Dean has invited you."

  Halfway through, Liu Wuxie was stopped by someone. A young man, who was relatively polite, made a gesture of invitation.

  "Is he your family's head?" Liu Wuxie frowned.

  "That's right, we're from Tianmu College, I'm Vice President Zhang Shuli."

  The young man's face was proud, and the status of Tianmu Academy today is no longer inferior to that of Imperial College. These students go wherever they please, and are equally respected.

  "Lead the way!"

  Liu Wuxie wanted to refuse, but soon changed his attitude. Even if he refused now, the Tianmu Academy would find a way to make him meet with this deputy dean.

  He simply agreed and let the young man lead the way. Under the bright daylight, he wasn't worried that Tianmu Academy would make a move against him.

  Besides, he is now a famous figure, ordinary people would not dare to bully Liu Wu Xie at this time.

  Deep within the Imperial Academy, Fan Jing's right index finger tapped against the desktop.

  In front of him, a package was placed, inside which were several human heads, and also an Earth Fire Dragon Inner Elixir. This was sent by Liu Wuxie to be delivered by Li Shengsheng.

  Three tasks have been completed successfully!

  "Director!"

  Gong Ao walked in, bowed and saluted. He was a student of the Xuanzi class, but outsiders didn't know that he was the principal's confidant. Last time, it was him who delivered the punishment book to Liu Wu Xie.

  "Has someone from Tianmu College found him?"

  Gong Ao suddenly came to find him, Fan Zhen guessed seven or eight, such a thing happened, Tianmu College would not let go of the opportunity to dig a wall.

  Liu Wuxie had a life-and-death feud with the deputy dean of the Imperial Academy, and it would be difficult for him to develop in the Imperial Academy afterwards. Turning to the Tianmu Academy was undoubtedly the best solution.

  Two months after joining the Imperial Academy, Liu Wuxie has been subjected to many unfair treatments and is gradually being dug out. The Tianmu Academy will definitely make a big deal out of this.

  "Yes!"

  Liu Wuxie left the Imperial Academy, and Gong Ao quietly followed him. Liu Wuxie's whereabouts were clear as day.

  "Who received him?" Fan Zhen asked.

  Nine stars shining brightly, in just two short months, from a small innate realm, grew to such an extent, this kind of demonic genius, placed anywhere, cannot conceal its brilliance.

  Tianmu College will stop at nothing to win over Liu Wuxie.

  "Zhang Shu Li!" Gong Ao replied with three words.

  The hall fell silent, Fan Zhen's right index finger continued to tap on the table, his eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.

  "Director, should we send someone to stop them? Tianmu Academy is going too far, openly poaching our students."

  Gong Ao suddenly lifted his head and stared at the principal, who should have stopped them from coming into contact.

  "If he is really disappointed with our Imperial College, it would be useless even if we send someone to persuade him, let him go."

  Fan Zhen pondered for a moment, waved his hand, and Gong Ao bowed and withdrew from the grand hall.

  The great hall returned to calmness, with only Fan Zhen sitting quietly: "Young one, I hope you can persist until the end and never waver in your faith."

  ……

  One Product Building!

  The famous wine house in the imperial capital is only for high-ranking officials and nobles, and rarely opens to ordinary people.

  Because every dish here is ridiculously expensive, ordinary people will definitely go bankrupt after eating a meal.

  A jug of fine brewed top-grade nianghong, worth ten spirit stones, equivalent to the harvest of two months for an ordinary student at the Imperial Academy, no wonder ordinary people can't afford it.

  Each dish is carefully selected and strictly cooked before being served, with a complete color, fragrance, and flavor, not much different from the imperial cuisine in the palace.

  It is said that the master behind Yipin Building has a great background, and no one dares to make trouble when they come to dine.

  An exquisite private room, sat a refined middle-aged man.

  Every part of the body is exquisite, with exquisite clothes, hair and even fingernails, matching the exquisite wine and dishes on the table to create a delicate picture.

  In order to meet Liu Wuxie, Zhang Shuli specially bathed and changed clothes, grooming himself from head to toe, and attached great importance to this meeting today.

  "Willow gentleman, please!"

  The package room door opened, and the Tianmu Academy students led Liu Wuxie out of the package room door, making a please gesture.

  He stepped inside, the private room door slowly closing behind him. Apart from Zhang Shuli, there was also a woman responsible for pouring drinks, dressed in revealing attire, with a beautiful and charming appearance, a rare beauty indeed.

  The moment he stepped in, Liu Wuxie's gaze fell on Zhang Shuli's face.

  At first glance, this middle-aged man seems to be living a refined life, with his physical appearance seemingly carefully measured.

  "Please sit down, Mr. Liu!"

  Zhang Shuli stood up and invited Liu Wuxie to sit down.

  Since he came, Liu Wuxie didn't stand on ceremony either and sat down opposite Zhang Shuli.

  The woman standing by poured wine for the two of them and retreated to one side, where they could talk without worrying about being overheard.

  "Come on, I'll toast you a cup, Little Brother Liu. Your feats have reached my ears long ago, and today I see that your reputation is well-deserved."

  Zhang Shuli raised his glass and took the initiative to toast.

  The deputy dean of Tiān Mù Academy, Cháo, as an ordinary student, toasting with a glass of wine, if this gets out, it will probably cause another huge stir.

  They raised their wine cups, lightly clinked them together, and downed the liquor in one gulp.

  "Haha, Liu Xiao is quite bold, isn't he afraid I'll poison his drink?"

  Zhang Shu-li put down his wine cup and burst out laughing. Normally, people who saw him would be trembling with fear.

  Liu Wuxie's expression has been natural from the moment he came in, without any restraint or fear, which is absolutely not pretentious, but a pride that comes from within.

  "If Director Zhang wants to kill me, there's no need for this setup. He can just send someone to kill me directly."

  Liu Wuxie smiled slightly, and the Tianmu Academy invited him. They just wanted to win him over to join the Tianmu Academy, and they wouldn't kill him until their goal was achieved.

  "Good, at such a young age, with this kind of magnanimity, I admire you. This cup of wine is for you."

  Zhang Shuli thought it would take some effort to persuade him, but unexpectedly, Liu Wuxie saw through it even more clearly than he did. Dealing with smart people is indeed refreshing.

  Three cups of wine down the hatch, no one mentioned anything serious, they all talked about some unimportant things.

  "Director Zhang, it's time to get down to business."

  Liu Wuxie raised his head, his eyes slightly narrowed, and downed three cups of wine, to give Zhang Shuli some face.

  The grudge between Imperial Academy and Tianmu Academy, Liu Wuxie didn't want to get involved, it's not his crisis, it's not convenient for him to intervene too much, he just wants to cultivate successfully as soon as possible.

  Tianmu College has not done anything harmful to him for the time being, which is the most important reason why Liu Wuxie agreed to come to the meeting.

  To put it simply, let's say there's a heinous villain who has killed countless people, but treats Liu Wuxie like his own brother. Does that mean Liu Wuxie should kill this brother of his?

  What evil deeds did Tianmu College commit in the past? How many people were killed? Is it related to Liu Wuxie?

  For now, they get along pretty well, but who knows what will happen next.

  "Liu Xiao is a clever person, let's not beat around the bush. I've heard about your experience at Imperial Academy, and I deeply regret it. As long as Liu Xiao joins our Tianmu Academy, I'll help you resolve the grudge between you and Qin Shi."

  Straightforward and without any twists or turns, both of them are straightforward people.

  "Do you think I will die at the hands of Qin Shi?"

  Liu Wuxie smiled slightly, and in everyone's eyes, this battle was undoubtedly a dead end for him.

  "Li Xiao, you've misunderstood. Since you dared to issue a challenge, you must have a plan. I'm just reminding you that the Qin Shi is not as simple as it seems on the surface. With just one word from me, the grudge between you two will be lifted immediately."

  Zhang Shu-li praised Liu Wu-xie's sentence and still hoped he would consider carefully, after all, this was a matter of life and death.

  "It's interesting!" Liu Wuxie's gaze fell on Zhang Shuli's face, wanting to see some answers from his face: "Just based on your one sentence, you can resolve the grudge between me and Qin Shi. If I'm not mistaken, Qin Shi has already been bought off by you guys, right?"

  It was just a casual remark, but Liu Wuxie inferred it, and Zhang Shuli's eyes narrowed.

  The youth in front of him looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but seemed as cunning as an old fox. With just one glance and a single sentence, many things could be inferred.

  "This is none of Liu Xiaodi's business!"

  Zhang Shuli was in high spirits, thinking this would be a pleasant encounter. He underestimated Liu Wuxie, and everyone else did too.

  "Tell me about the benefits you promised!"

  Liu Wuxie doesn't care about this. Whether Qin Shi is a person from the Imperial College or has been bought by the Tianmu College, he has no right to interfere and is too lazy to investigate.
