"Hey, we're all on the same side, can we stop fighting?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shushu felt two sharp gazes sweep over her in an instant, as if they wanted to pierce through her.
Shushu felt goosebumps rise on his skin and subconsciously rubbed his arms with his palms, somewhat speechless.
Just as they were thinking of giving up, the feeling of being stared at disappeared. The man and the fox on the other side probably felt that there was a way out, and they both released their grip/claws at the same time.
Upon regaining his freedom, Tianchen swiftly leaped back into Shushu's embrace, burying his head in the sand, leaving only his fox rear end facing Venerable Long.
If the fox's tail hadn't been hidden, Shushu would have almost thought that Tianchen was about to give the other party a stinky fart at any moment.
Thinking of the records in his inherited memories about the power of the Celestial Fox Clan's farts, Shushu shook his head violently, quickly stopping this smelly thought and not daring to think about it any further.
Just as she was lost in thought, Venerable Long took out a teleportation array and activated it. He walked in himself and gestured for his fellow disciples to follow.
Lu Li and Shushu exchanged a glance. Seeing the urging look in Venerable Long's eyes, they hesitated for a moment, but ultimately, trusting him a little, they stepped inside together.
Then, the senior and junior disciples were teleported to a spacious room along with Longqu.
Several people were already waiting in the room, including Dean Rao, whom they recognized.
Besides them, there were six white-bearded old men. Including Dean Rao, the seven of them sat in different parts of the room. As soon as they arrived, they all stared at them intently.
This scene looked exactly like a joint trial by the three judicial authorities, which startled the fellow disciples, who quickly and secretly checked their concealment techniques.
After confirming that there were no problems, the two secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while still waiting for the results.
Fortunately, the outcome was not what the senior students had expected. There was no joint trial by the three judicial authorities, nor any harsh questioning. Instead, the academy wanted them to do something for them.
Perhaps worried that they would suspect or overthink things, so she asked for their help before doing so.
Dean Rao explained their relationship with Liu Yu and presented the tokens and a message left by Liu Yu.
The senior and junior students carefully checked everything and found that it was all genuine, with no trace of forgery.
Finally, following Dean Rao's hint, Shushu found the jade slip that Liu Yu had given her when she left the Rainy Continent, and found the corresponding content inside.
After confirming that Dean Rao and his group were not lying, he then asked them what kind of help they wanted him to provide.
After listening to Dean Rao's request, the senior and junior disciples thought about it and discussed it telepathically. In the end, they nodded and agreed to the matter.
Then, the senior and junior disciples obtained several storage rings and a pile of jade tablets.
Finally, they made two name tags for them on the spot so that their safety could be confirmed later by checking the condition of the name tags, and then led them to the entrance of the forbidden area of the academy.
Watching them join forces to open the forbidden area, the senior and junior disciples glanced back at the academy, then were surrounded by everyone and walked in together.
I always thought that the forbidden area of the academy should be better than the outside, but I never expected that the reality was not like that at all. The territory of the forbidden area of the academy is far worse than the outside.
If it weren't for the unusual environment and the people around her, Shushu would have even thought that she had returned to the Rainy Continent.
However, this thought only lasted for a moment. Soon, after seeing a group of strange monsters with cultivation levels above the Nascent Soul stage surrounding her, she changed her mind.
After all, there aren't that many high-level monsters on the Rainy Continent.
Although it is unknown how they cultivated to their current strength under such a lack of spiritual energy.
But it cannot be denied that these monsters are really strong, stronger than the current millet can withstand head-on.
Fortunately, it seemed that Dean Rao and the others did not intend for Shushu and Lu Li to take action.
Longqu led the two forward, while the remaining seven people surrounded them, protecting them as they headed deeper into the forbidden area.
The deeper you go, the higher the level and the greater the number of monsters that attack from the surrounding area.
Of course, Dean Rao and his team were no pushovers either. They unleashed their full power, and almost all the monsters that surrounded them were wiped out.
The group continued killing as they went, and before long they arrived at the inner perimeter of the forbidden area.
The reason why Shushu knew that they had reached the inner perimeter was not only because he clearly felt as if he had just passed through a barrier, but also because the monsters behind him had stopped.
Most importantly, she saw a black plaque standing upright with two lines of text engraved on it.
One line reads "Inner perimeter" in two large characters, while next to it are six smaller characters that read "Danger, No Entry".
It's very conspicuous; it's a warning to visitors. Shushu was a little curious, wondering who had placed it there.
Seeing that Dean Rao and the others had jumped over without even glancing at them, she silently shut her mouth and said nothing more.
Lu Li, standing to the side, did the same. The senior and junior brothers exchanged a glance and obediently remained like quails.
As it turned out, the plaque was not just nonsense; they were surrounded by a group of Frost Pythons shortly after entering the inner area.
The leading Frost Python King was actually at the late stage of the Integration Realm, and among the group of Frost Pythons around it, there were three others that were also at the Integration Realm.
The arrival of a group of frost pythons, carrying with them icy air, immediately lowered the temperature.
Even though Shushu had already created a protective shield for himself, his cultivation level was too low, he was still shivering from the cold and couldn't help but let out a loud sneeze: "Achoo!"
