After listening to Qi Zhiheng's account, the dean raised an eyebrow and said, "So, you admit that you possess a great treasure."
Qi Zhiheng said, "What I possess are not precious treasures, but rather basic ancient books." As he spoke, he took out the three books.
"What is this?" The dean looked at the object in his hand.
"Two of them are books on alchemy, and one is a book on talismans." Qi Zhiheng presented the books. "The reason why the Qi family and I have been able to increase our strength in such a short time is largely due to these books. I would like to ask the two elders to examine them and see if they can explain why the Qi family's cultivation has accelerated."
The two elders were quite excited when they heard that it was an ancient book, and they had been looking at it eagerly for a long time.
Elder Mu thought to himself, "Qi Zhiheng is a man of his word. In the end, won't these ancient alchemy books end up in the hands of the Pill Hall?"
As the elder who introduced Qi Zhiheng, he would certainly be the first to see him.
Elder Fu of Fu Hall was also quite excited, never expecting that his good relationship with Elder Mu would bring him such benefits.
Seeing that the two were eager to try, the dean did not touch either alchemy or talisman making. Naturally, these books should be inspected by the two elders, so he handed over the books given by Qi Zhiheng to the two elders.
The two elders hurriedly began flipping through the books.
While the two elders were looking through the book, Qi Zhiheng said, "The Qi family has been using this formula and the method of refining pills to make pills, which has accelerated the cultivation speed of the whole family. I would like to donate this book to the sect and ask for the sect's protection."
This is naturally a good demeanor as a starting point. Once the book is handed over, the danger shifts to the Gensei Institute. In return, he gives the benefits to the Gensei Institute, and the Gensei Institute will naturally protect the Qi family. It is a win-win situation.
Elder Mu saw the alchemy hand seals and exclaimed in amazement, "I never imagined there were such techniques in alchemy! Is this...is this real?"
Qi Zhiheng nodded and replied, "That is certainly true. The reason why our Qi family's pills are of such high quality is largely due to this hand technique."
"There are so many pill formulas here! I've never seen any of them before! Is the Hidden Breath Pill you mentioned one of these?" Elder Mu asked after flipping through another book.
“That’s right, the pill formulas here should all be effective. For example, the formulas for those poison pills we use are also here. You can take a look.” Qi Zhiheng reminded them again. Of course, these poison pills and the Concealing Breath Pill were added by Qi Zhiheng later, just to make them believe what he said.
On the other side, Elder Fu was also engrossed in reading the collection of talismans, occasionally exclaiming, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is..."
The sect leader, watching from the side, understood perfectly and knew that this was indeed a good thing.
Elder Mu, having benefited from the situation, naturally wanted to say a few good words for Qi Zhiheng, which was also Qi Zhiheng's idea.
Elder Mu held up the books and said, "Dean, I believe that with these two books in the hands of our Yuansheng Academy, we will surely be able to take the Yuansheng Academy to the next level of glory!"
After saying that, he leaned close to the dean's ear and whispered something.
The dean's pupils contracted, and he immediately took it seriously.
On the Xuanling Continent, the strongest cultivation level is Spirit Venerable. Once you reach the Spirit Venerable level, no one can advance to the next level. Since ancient times, countless Spirit Venerables have tried to take a step further, but without exception, they have all failed. What Elder Mu just mentioned is that there is a pill in this pill formula that may allow a Spirit Venerable to take a step further!
The dean had already reached the Spirit Venerable realm, but after reaching this point, further progress became extremely difficult, and wanting to advance further was simply a pipe dream.
Qi Zhiheng didn't know what Elder Mu had said to the Dean, but as long as he could achieve his goal, he didn't care what Elder Mu had said.
Upon receiving such good news, the dean was overjoyed and declared with righteous indignation, "As disciples of the Yuansheng Academy, they colluded with outsiders, attempting to seize our academy's precious treasures. Their intentions deserve to be punished! In a few days, we will go to the opposing forces to demand justice!"
The dean paused for a moment and asked, "Which force is the opposing force?" Qi Zhiheng hadn't mentioned it earlier, and since he wasn't particularly interested, he hadn't asked. But now that they needed to launch a campaign against them, he had to ask.
Originally, the dean did not intend to go and launch a campaign, but Qi Zhiheng was, after all, a member of the Yuansheng Academy, and he would naturally protect him when he could. As for the person who colluded with his own forces to obtain treasures from the former Shenyang side, he was just an outsider to the dean, so of course he would help his own people.
Now that Qi Zhiheng has brought him such benefits, he naturally has to show his appreciation. Besides showing his appreciation, there is another point: the other party's target has now become their Yuansheng Academy, so he naturally has to deal with the person who is eyeing them first.
Qi Zhiheng said, "It's the Qinglan Sect, the force behind Shi Xingyang."
The dean said, "Your contributions to the Yuansheng Academy are immense, and we will certainly remember them. We will definitely protect the Qi family well."
Qi Zhiheng bowed and said, "Dean Duo! Yuansheng Academy is my support, my other home. It is only right that I contribute to my own home."
"It's good that you have this awareness!" the dean praised.
Qi Zhiheng said, "Dean, the traitor Shi Xingyang is still at my house. What do you think?"
"I'll send someone with you to retrieve it. Afterwards, I'll gather some disciples, and we'll set off in a few days once they're all assembled." The dean sent someone to bring Qi Zhiheng back. He also instructed them to send someone to investigate the disciples belonging to the Qinglan Sect within the Yuansheng Academy.
Qi Zhiheng received permission and left with the dean's men.
Back at the Qi family home, Yang Yitian stepped forward and asked, "How did it go?"
Qi Zhiheng said, "It went fairly smoothly. Those two senior brothers were sent by the dean to help me get Shi Xingyang."
After Qi Zhiheng finished speaking, he taught Shi Xingyang how to leave Ali.
Shi Xingyang had already woken up by this time. Seeing his senior brothers from the Yuansheng Academy, he hurriedly cried out, "Senior brothers, save me! Qi Zhiheng wants to harm our fellow disciples! He deserves to die! Senior brothers, please save me!"
Qi Zhiheng watched him make a scene with cold eyes, as if he were watching a clown.
A senior disciple slapped him: "Shut up! You colluded with the Qinglan Sect to try and seize the Yuansheng Academy's guarantee, you traitor who deserves to die!"
"Take him away!"
After watching the person leave, Qi Zhiheng immediately copied a list from memory.
After seeing it, Yang Yitian asked, "What kind of list is this?"
"It's a list of members from Shi Xingyang's lineage." Qi Zhiheng folded the list neatly. "I'm going to the Yuansheng Institute."
"You just got back and you're already going out again?" Yang Yitian watched him leave.
Qi Zhiheng met with the dean again.
Upon seeing Qi Zhiheng, the dean asked with a puzzled look, "Is there anything else?"
"Dean, this is the list of those involved in this incident. The others are unaware of this matter." Qi Zhiheng said, presenting a list.
Qi Zhiheng has no intention of wiping out the Qinglan Sect yet. According to Shi Xingyang's memories, the Qinglan Sect also has factions!
And he happened to see the elder in his memory who had died with him in his previous life when he self-destructed!
It's not exactly a coincidence, because this branch of the Qinglan Sect is inherently more greedy. Therefore, the people of this branch are stronger.
He should avoid getting involved in the karmic burdens of innocent people, as this is detrimental to his spiritual practice. However, he must also avenge the grudges from his past life, otherwise, it will also be detrimental to his spiritual practice!
The dean was somewhat satisfied with the list, after all, Shi Xingyang was not the only student of Qinglan Sect in the Yuansheng Academy, and he couldn't just kill them all, there might be relatives and friends of these disciples among them.
With this list, he could save himself a lot of trouble: "You did a good job. The team should be almost ready to be assembled in a couple of days."
Qi Zhiheng said, "All this trouble was caused by your disciple, so it is only right that I do my best."
"Do you want to come along when we set off?" the dean asked.
Qi Zhiheng thanked him, saying, "It would be wonderful if we could go together. I thank the Dean again."
Three days later, the Yuansheng Institute gathered five thousand people and set off, led by three Spirit Lords.
Qi Zhiheng was also taken aback by the sheer scale of the operation. He had known that the Yuansheng Academy was powerful, but he hadn't expected so many Spirit Venerables to participate in such an operation. However, these Spirit Venerables might not actually take action; they were mainly there to maintain order.
A large group of people set off.
It attracted a lot of attention along the way.
"What is Genseiin trying to do with this setup?"
"Where is Genseiin going?"
The Qinglan Sect was also located within the imperial city, so it wasn't far away. After traveling for a day, the group arrived outside the Qinglan Sect's gate.
Shi Xingyang remained bound, his mouth gagged. Unable to speak, he could only make "hmm" sounds.
The people from the Qinglan Sect were originally just watching the show; everyone loves a good spectacle. But when the Yuansheng Academy's group stopped in front of their sect, their expressions turned sour.
"What does Genseiin mean by that?"
"Hey! Is that Shi Xingyang next to them?"
"It seems like that one is it!"
"Go quickly and inform the elder that his grandson has been tied up."
The sect leader of Qinglan Sect was the first to step forward.
The sheer scale of the Yuansheng Academy's preparations took the Qinglan Sect leader quite by surprise.
"Dean, what brings you here today? Why have you kidnapped our Qinglan Sect disciples?"
The sect leader was not from that lineage, so he did not react much to the kidnapping of Shi Xingyang.
"If the Qinglan Sect has offended anyone, please forgive us, Yuansheng." The sect leader added before the man could speak.
"What's wrong with the sect leader? Why are you praising others?"
"What do you know? That's the Source Academy! Didn't you see so many Spirit Lords there?"
"This visitor is definitely up to no good!"
"What do we do? Is Genseiin going to attack?"
