In Central Region City, several scattered figures converged in the same direction with all their might. However, their journey was not smooth, but filled with obstacles.
Jiang Xianyue and Xiao Zechuan were both held back by the Guiyuan Alliance faction.
Chen Yan even met Dean Xu Ze of Zhongyu College. This respected elder seemed to have been waiting here for a long time.
His eyes were cold, with unquestionable majesty, and he said coldly: "Go back."
Chen Yan paused slightly, met Dean Xu Ze's gaze with a firm look, and replied: "Dean Xu, once the arrow is shot, it cannot be returned to its original point, and the current situation is no different."
Dean Xu Ze's eyes narrowed as he spoke in a deep voice, "Although your Shura team is a student of the Western Region Academy, the Western Region Academy is also part of our Central Region Academy. Therefore, your Shura team is also part of our Central Region Academy. Our Central Region Academy's position has always been clear: to remain neutral. Now, your Shura team has actually taken the initiative to join the Central Region faction dispute. How bold of you!"
Chen Yan said calmly: "The Shura team can be expelled from the Western Region Academy."
After hearing this, Dean Xu Ze laughed out of anger, because she had said the same thing when replying to him not long ago.
"What do you think of the academy? You can come and go as you please?"
Chen Yan's eyes were firm and steady, her posture as straight as a pine tree. She explained, "Deep in our hearts, we have always held a deep admiration for the academy. Therefore, we have decided to hand over the right of choice to the academy. The academy can either expel us or let us stay."
Dean Xu Ze's expression instantly became serious. His eyes were like torches, and with a powerful aura, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed in the direction of Chen Yan.
At the same time, he said in a low voice: "Follow this dean back!"
Seeing this, Chen Yan immediately dodged.
Dean Xu Ze was even faster, and the powerful pressure he exuded immediately restrained Shen Yan. Just as his hand was about to fall on Shen Yan's shoulder, suddenly, a sharp sword wind swept over.
clang——
Dean Xu Ze gathered his spiritual power with his bare hands and grabbed Chen Yan's Spirit Phoenix Sword.
Feeling Chen Yan's powerful sword intent, his expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but say aloud: "The fourth level of the Heavenly Grade Realm!"
Dean Xu Ze was shocked.
When he first met Chen Yan, her cultivation level was only at the Earthly Realm. He didn't expect that in such a short period of time, she had broken through several small realms in succession!
This promotion speed is even faster than Ying Qi.
Dean Xu Ze came back to his senses. He swung out a palm and fiercely hit the sword in Chen Yan's hand, knocking Chen Yan back several steps. He then said, "If you can withstand three of my attacks, I will not stop you from continuing."
Chen Yan steadied herself. Her five fingers holding the hilt of the sword felt numb and painful. After hearing this, she suddenly looked up at Dean Xu Ze.
If you want Dean Xu Ze to give in, this is probably the only way.
"good."
She agreed.
"What courage." Dean Xu Ze looked at Chen Yan. The more he looked, the more he felt that she was somewhat similar to Shen Tianmen, the leader of Tianmen more than 20 years ago. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind.
It was like the fog was cleared away, and the truth was faintly revealed.
Dean Xu Ze's breathing slowed slightly as he asked in a deep voice, "What is your relationship with Tianmen? Also, you need to tell me why you are participating in this factional dispute?"
He stared at Chen Yan closely, trying to catch any clues or hints from her expression and eyes.
Chen Yan avoided the topic and casually glanced in the direction of the city gate. She said, "Dean Xu Ze, time is running out. Please enlighten me first! Or, if I answer your question, you can let me go."
Dean Xu Ze smiled helplessly upon hearing this.
This girl is really good at negotiating.
He let her take his three moves, firstly to find out her strength, and secondly to stop her thoughts, so that the Shura team could return to the Central Domain Academy and save their lives, and also allow the Central Domain Academy to continue to maintain a neutral attitude in the factional disputes.
But now...
But he really wanted to know the truth.
Dean Xu Ze looked up at her and said, "Tell me."
His gaze was deep and sharp, as if he could see through people's deepest thoughts.
Chen Yan put away his sword and said, "I have nothing to do with Tianmen, but my father is an elder of Tianmen. As for this factional dispute, Dean Xu, you may be mistaken. We are not joining this factional dispute, but... we are one of the fuses that provoked this factional dispute."
After hearing the last sentence, Dean Xu Ze's eyes changed slightly.
His tone was filled with doubt and uncertainty: "You are the ones who started the factional conflict?! Why?"
Chen Yan opened her red lips slightly, and her words were filled with extreme coldness.
"To save others, to protect ourselves, and to avenge our comrades who destroyed our clan."
Dean Xu Ze's expression changed.
Save people? Save whom?
Self-protection? Could it be because of the recent death of Xiahou Wei in Jinxu?
Revenge for the extermination of the clan?
…etc!
Dean Xu Ze suddenly remembered that the Tianfang Sect in the Western Regions was destroyed by the Guiyuan Alliance. There was a time when this matter was widely circulated.
He frowned, pursed his lips, and stared at Chen Yan with complicated eyes.
He had already guessed it, but he still wanted to confirm it, so he asked, "Is it that young man in disguise? Is he the Tianfang Sect's Young Master Pei Su?"
Chen Yan nodded.
After receiving Chen Yan's acknowledgement, Dean Xu Ze felt mixed emotions. He looked at Chen Yan and asked, "Is the person you want to save the Tianfang Sect's Taisui Patriarch?"
"yes."
"I'm afraid he won't be around for long." After a pause, Dean Xu Ze turned around to leave, his eyes cryptic as he said, "If you win, you'll still be students of the Western Region Academy and can return to the Central Region Academy. If you lose, you'll be expelled from the academy tonight by this dean. Do you understand?"
Without waiting for Chen Yan to answer, his figure disappeared in an instant.
Chen Yan naturally understood what he meant. She withdrew her gaze and continued to rush towards the city gate.
At the same time, the unrest in Central Region City has entered a white-hot stage.
At the city gate, a group of people led by Xingchun were discovered by the Weiwei tribe of Guiyuan General Alliance, and the two sides immediately fought.
Xingchun's cultivation level was at the peak of the tenth level of the Heavenly Grade Realm. With one move, he killed all the more than one hundred people of the Weiwei Department of the Guiyuan General Alliance. But just when he wanted to rescue the man hanging on the city wall, two figures suddenly appeared and concentrated their attacks to repel Xingchun.
boom!
Looking closely, they were the two guardians of Guiyuan Alliance, namely: Yuan Guardian and Meng Guardian.
The cultivation of the four guardians is at the peak of the tenth level of the Heavenly Grade Realm. They are Xiahou Duan's strong backing.
"Finally it's out, but..." Xingchun smiled slightly and suddenly changed the subject: "There are still two missing."
