Chapter 598: Great Demon Mission
However, the impact of killing someone within the Golden Academy was indeed very bad. This matter actually reached the ears of Dean Sun Boxiu, and he contacted Li Yi the next morning.
At this moment, Li Yi was quietly recuperating in the cultivation room, supplementing lost Qi and blood by swallowing a large amount of elixir, and then continuing to nurture divine blood to fill his acupoints.
Sun Boxiu, however, made a phone call that directly caused him to open his eyes and wake up.
Looking at this phone call, Li Yi also guessed why it came, and he immediately connected the call.
"Li Yi, it's me, Dean Sun Boxiu." A relatively familiar voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Dean, what is the matter with contacting me early in the morning? I still have to hurry up and cultivate; I don't have time to chat with you. If you are bored, you can go to the Golden Academy to find a few female students to chat with," Li Yi said directly.
"Li Yi, you know why I called you. Experts of your level are all people who don't submit to management in the Golden Academy. Rules are useless to you at all, but you can't kill a student openly in the Golden Academy," Sun Boxiu said somewhat angrily. "Rules were hard to set; if they are broken casually, what will happen in the future?"
Li Yi said, "Dean Sun, you can't do things like this. Back then, I was almost killed by Du Baizhi in the Golden Academy. At that time, my crime didn't deserve death, but Du Baizhi still dared to make a move? Later, at the base in World Number 6, I was almost killed by that expert named Huo Hong... Why didn't you, the dean, come out at that time? Now that it's my turn to make a move, you start to control me."
"Is there such a reason in this world?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Boxiu immediately said, "Although you suffered a lot of grievances before, to say something unpleasant, as long as you didn't die, this matter wasn't serious, and I couldn't come out to handle them. Now it is the student named Xu Jie who died, so I must come out to handle it."
"It doesn't matter. If you, Dean, want to deal with me, at worst I will withdraw from the Golden Academy," Li Yi said.
"Li Yi, don't be impulsive. The purpose of my coming to you is to hope that this matter is handled properly, not to let you leave the Golden Academy," Sun Boxiu said hurriedly. He now couldn't bear to let such an expert as Li Yi go.
Moreover, according to what he knew, several honorary professors in the Golden Academy, such as Wu Yong and Li Yue, seemed to have a very deep relationship with Li Yi.
If Li Yi ran away, maybe those honorary professors would also leave.
In that case, the Golden Academy would suffer a huge loss.
"Dean Sun, how do you want to handle it properly?" Li Yi asked.
"Recently, the Demon God Realm has been making a lot of noise. Great Demons frequently invade Earth, causing a lot of casualties. Some of the top experts of the Golden Academy have been sent to Tianchang City. I remember you are also a cultivator from Tianchang City, right? How about this, you help kill a Great Demon, and this matter will be settled. How about that?" Sun Boxiu said.
"Let me kill a Great Demon?" Li Yi's face couldn't help but sink.
The Great Demons of the Demon God Realm have very terrifying strength and can fight head-on with cultivators of the Three-Flower Realm without falling into a disadvantage. Back then in the Golden Academy, Old Daoist Wu had fought with a Great Demon. At that time, his strength was in the One-Flower Realm, and the result was that he was defeated.
It was Xuan Yuezi of the Two-Flower Realm who made a move to defeat the opponent.
But if a Great Demon holds a divine weapon, such as the Divine Wood Great Bow in his hand, even an expert like Xuan Yuezi has the possibility of falling.
Although his strength has improved greatly, wanting to kill a Great Demon across realms is not a small difficulty.
Perhaps only when reaching the Chaoyuan Realm, relying on sixty great acupoints, vigorous magic power, plus Dao artifacts and divine bows, could he perhaps try to fight with an ordinary Great Demon...
But now, this is undoubtedly sending himself to death.
"Dean, if you want me to die, just say so. You know how strong a Great Demon is; back then, it almost collapsed the Golden Academy. And I only killed a student who deserved to die, not committed a heavenly crime. I can't do this thing. And I think instead of making a move on a Great Demon, it's better to make a move on you, Dean. Maybe I will accidentally defeat you, and I will become the dean," Li Yi said.
If he had to choose between a Great Demon and the dean, he would choose to kill the dean without hesitation.
"Li Yi, I just put forward a request, I didn't say you have to complete it now. You can cultivate for a few years before completing it. If it really doesn't work, call a few experts to surround and kill a Great Demon together. After killing it, the head will still count as yours. Just give me, the dean, some face. How about that?"
Sun Boxiu persuaded him earnestly again.
No time limit, no limit on the number of people?
Li Yi touched his chin. Putting it this way, killing a Great Demon doesn't seem so difficult. If he called Xuan Yuezi, Old Daoist Wu, Bald Daoist, as well as Daoist Gan, Daoist Liu, and other experts of the Three-Flower Realm, the Great Demon would only flee in panic when seeing them.
"Li Yi, I am not making things difficult for you, but just pushing the boat with the current to handle this matter properly. You don't want to see Tianchang City destroyed in the hands of a Great Demon, right? As long as you guard Tianchang City, you will eventually fight with a Great Demon. So this punishment of mine is painless for you, just to have an explanation and statement outside,"
Sun Boxiu continued to explain: "If others in the Golden Academy hear that you have been arranged to deal with a Great Demon, they will definitely feel that the rules in the Golden Academy are strict, and they won't dare to violate them casually in the future."
"But no matter what, it is you who took advantage. I killed one person and went to arrange to deal with a Great Demon. Then, if others kill people in the Golden Academy in the future, will they also have to go to arrange to deal with a Great Demon?" Li Yi said.
"Now the situation on Earth is changing rapidly, and I can only take care of the present. Who can say for sure about the future? Li Yi, just help out. Consider it as me owing you a favor. How about that?" Sun Boxiu said.
Upon hearing this, Li Yi thought for a while, and finally said, "Since you, Dean, have said so, what else can I say? I have accepted the matter of the Great Demon. Indeed, I also have to make a trip back to Tianchang City."
"That's good." Sun Boxiu was clearly relieved: "Then I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
After speaking, he hung up the phone immediately.
Li Yi couldn't help but shake his head.
It seems that being the dean of the Golden Academy is not easy either. Sun Boxiu can be considered to have high position and great power, and his strength is strong, but he still has to put down his face and status to beg when facing him. It is really sad to see.
But he knew that Sun Boxiu was trying his best to maintain the current situation.
At least the Golden Academy cannot be in chaos. This is a place to cultivate cross-dimensional experts and is the hope.
It is precisely because of this that every time the Golden Academy suffers an invasion by external enemies, it will be rebuilt immediately.
"But I am still too easy to talk to. That is a Great Demon." Li Yi couldn't help but click his tongue again. Although this matter is not urgent, the difficulty is still very high. If he didn't have a backer, he wouldn't know when he would have to wait to complete it.
But through this matter, he also understood that this Dean Sun Boxiu should have guessed the true identities of Old Daoist Wu, Xuan Yuezi, and others.
After all, they use Daoist techniques as soon as they make a move. Although they pretend to be Earthlings and their identities have no problems, there are no traces of evolution methods on their bodies. It is a matter of time before they are discovered. It is just that Sun Boxiu did not point this out.
Now Earth is short of experts. No matter what kind of expert it is, as long as they are willing to stand on Earth's side, they are Earthlings.
After accepting this mission, Li Yi felt a bit restless instead.
He wasn't thinking about completing the mission, but wanted to see the situation in the Demon God Realm, because Tianchang City is indeed very close to the Demon God Realm and is easily affected, because once a Great Demon makes a move, it will affect hundreds of miles of land.
"Go back to Tianchang City and take a look."
Li Yi thought for a while, and finally walked out of the cultivation room. He decided to take away the cultivation room transformed by the Tianyi Palace, because the Tianyi Palace was left behind to allow Old Daoist Wu and others who had just crossed back to recover their strength.
Now, after such a long time, their strength must have recovered long ago. Leaving the Tianyi Palace has no meaning; it is better to carry it with him.
!
In the future, there will be a safe place to live wherever he goes.
"Cloud Soaring."
A lucky cloud appeared under Li Yi's feet, lifting him up slowly into the air, and then it turned into a stream of light, flying rapidly toward Tianchang City at an incredible speed.
With the improvement of strength, his current speed of cloud soaring has exceeded the original Thunder Fighter. Although Tianchang City is more than a thousand kilometers away, he arrived in no time.
Nothing in Tianchang City has changed; the city is still prosperous, without any traces of being affected.
And after the last reconstruction, the scale of the city even has a trend of expansion.
Many people also live in the former waste city area, and the original danger zone is no longer dangerous.
Li Yi first came to the location of the original Ghost Street.
This is the cross-dimensional point leading to the Four Seas and Eight Continents. Now the danger here has been eliminated, and more Evolvers have appeared nearby.
However, he saw that this area was surrounded.
It didn't look like it was done by humans, but rather because of the use of Daoist techniques.
Tall walls, along with several high-rise buildings and the entire Ghost Street, were all enclosed. At the same time, there was a powerful alien beast guarding it. Any Evolver approaching here would be warned to leave. If they broke in hard, they would be attacked by the alien beast.
"It's Shanyi."
Li Yi saw the huge alien beast crawling on the abandoned building.
It was exactly the Shanyi he had tamed before.
When he crossed dimensions and left before, he didn't take Shanyi with him, but left it in the Tianyi Palace to recuperate.
However, when Li Yi returned, he didn't see Shanyi in the Golden Academy. He didn't expect it to have returned to Tianchang City.
Perhaps it smelled Li Yi's aura.
Shanyi let out a cry at this moment and flapped its wings to come over. Its speed was extremely fast, carrying the sound of wind and thunder.
Compared to before, Shanyi has grown again. Its current body size is a full eight zhang high, like a small building, and such a large body size does not appear clumsy at all, but is unusually agile.
"Sure enough, it is worthy of being a species from the Savage World. Its life is tenacious, and its potential is amazing. It is still in its infancy, and there is huge room for growth," Li Yi thought to himself while reaching out to touch Shanyi's huge head.
"I remember that besides Shanyi, there is also that Niu Niu. I don't know where it ran off to."
Afterward, he looked around, but only saw Shanyi and didn't see that Niu Niu.
Sure enough, alien beasts that haven't been tamed are not very obedient.
That Niu Niu is not very well-disciplined, but fortunately, that Niu Niu is very smart and won't cause any trouble, so Li Yi was too lazy to manage it much.
