Chapter 605: Temporary Arrangement

Everyone didn't expect that Wu Yong would take the initiative to speak for Li Yi, and it seemed that he had a friendship with Li Yi and was not a stranger. This point was beyond many people's expectations.

Only Dean Sun Boxiu of the Golden Academy didn't feel surprised. He had long known that the several experts who suddenly appeared in the Golden Academy all had intricate relationships with Li Yi and were very likely experts invited by Li Yi from other worlds.

It was just that Sun Boxiu was not willing to point this out.

Because if the matter was true, then Li Yi's influence would be great. You must know that there is more than one expert who entered the Golden Academy, there are also Li Yue, Tang Yi, and Li Feiyun.

There are four of them.

And they are on the bright side. Last time, during the Du Baizhi incident, other experts appeared, although they unfortunately fell, but one can see the whole picture from a glimpse.

This Li Yi hides a large number of top experts behind him.

It seems to be endless, and a batch can be pulled out at any time.

It is precisely because of this that Sun Boxiu understood Li Yi's importance, so no matter what kind of thing Li Yi does, he can tolerate it.

"Let's put the matter of sparring aside for the time being. We still have to continue to discuss the matter of the Demon God Realm, because the behavior of the other party is somewhat abnormal, which makes everyone have to raise their vigilance again."

At this moment, as the dean of the Golden Academy, Sun Boxiu said with a very solemn expression, and then he looked to the side: "Professor Wu Yong, how is the situation on your side? That Great Demon didn't cause any casualties, right?"

"That Great Demon didn't have the idea of fighting me head-on, but retreated immediately after a short fight." Old Daoist Wu was wearing a suit and leather shoes at this moment, completely unable to see that he was a Daoist cultivator from the Dharma-Ending World.

"However, before that Great Demon left, it escorted three Heavenly Demons across the defense line. Ji Wu, how is the situation on your side?"

A tall man with a bare chest and Qi and blood like a dragon said coldly: "Naturally, I finished them off. It's just a Heavenly Demon, and it's not like I haven't killed one before. After my martial arts break through, I still want to fight with a Great Demon. I came to Earth right. Indeed, there are countless strong enemies. Just a Demon God Realm alone has benefited me a lot."

"It's a pity that I haven't encountered a cultivator yet. I don't know if a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing stage is easy to kill compared to a Heavenly Demon."

He came here not to protect Earth, but just to challenge strong enemies and hone his martial arts.

After Ji Wu finished speaking, he glanced at a mature woman wearing a magic robe on the side: "Ai Si, the Heavenly Demon you were responsible for seems to have run away."

That mature woman wearing a magic robe and with a graceful figure said with a bit of apology: "Very sorry, my magic spell couldn't trap that Heavenly Demon. This is my dereliction of duty."

"Magic spells are unreliable. Practice martial arts with me. Maybe you can walk out a path of dual cultivation of martial arts and magic. The future achievements will definitely be limitless," Ji Wu invited the woman named Ai Si to practice martial arts at this moment.

"Thank you, Mr. Ji Wu, for your kindness, but I don't have the idea of practicing martial arts for the time being," Ai Si smiled and refused immediately.

"The third Heavenly Demon was originally about to escape the defense line, but was killed by accident. According to the intelligence I received, the person who killed that Heavenly Demon is named Li Yi. I think everyone present should know this person."

At this moment, the one speaking is a man wearing nano battle armor. He is called Xiao Jianjun and is the person in charge of the military side of the Demon God Realm defense line.

Li Yi?

Hearing this name, many people in the deliberation hall were stunned.

"I remember that Li Yi disappeared after we joined forces to finish off Du Baizhi last time. Mostly he crossed dimensions. After all, people from the Profound Immortal Continent are also hunting him. If he stays on Earth for a long time, he will be very dangerous. I didn't expect him to come back this time."

The one speaking is called Chen Daoxing, and he has had contact with Li Yi and knows some situations.

"Being able to finish off a Heavenly Demon as soon as he crosses back, his strength has improved greatly." Li Jinyun on the side said: "However, I have also passed the Spirit Tribulation, plus cultivating multiple paths, so confronting a Heavenly Demon is not a problem, but to finish it off in such a short time is almost impossible."

The Heavenly Demons of the Demon God Realm are not soft persimmons. Cultivating multiple paths doesn't mean you can handle them at will. They have fought with the Demon God Realm many times and have deeply understood how strong these Heavenly Demons are.

It can be said that every Heavenly Demon is an existence that has stood out from countless fights and is not an existence that only knows how to cultivate in seclusion.

Old Daoist Wu narrowed his eyes at this moment, feeling a bit surprised in his heart.

You must know that a Heavenly Demon is equal to a cultivator in the Chaoyuan Realm. To kill it, even with Taiyi cultivating multiple paths and the assistance of Dao artifacts, it must be at the Great Perfection of the Five-Qi Realm.

But how long has Taiyi been away from crossing dimensions? How could he walk through the Five-Qi Realm in such a short time?

You must know that he has twelve acupoints in one realm, and his magic power is twelve times that of ordinary cultivators. The difficulty of breaking through each realm is very great, at least taking three to five years. To reach Great Perfection, it takes at least decades of time.

So Old Daoist Wu had many doubts in his heart.

"Li Yi being able to kill a Heavenly Demon is very important to us. With such a powerful Evolver joining, the defense line can be more stable," Xiao Jianjun said.

"Great Demons and Demon Kings are the key to whether the defense line can be held. Heavenly Demons are at most like leaders in the Demon God Realm and cannot affect the overall situation. And in the defense line, the only one who has the strength to repel Great Demons is Professor Wu Yong."

At this time, another man spoke suddenly. He was also wearing ancient armor and hanging a precious saber at his waist, like an ancient general. However, his strength was not weak, having passed the Spirit Tribulation and cultivated multiple paths. He was also an existence capable of confronting Heavenly Demons in the entire defense line.

Everyone took a look.

They also recognized this person. It seems he is an expert from the Cross-Dimensional Alliance, called Jiang Bin.

"Great Demons are limited in number, and the number of Great Demons under the Heavenly Moon Tianyue Yao Wang will definitely not be many. One less for every one that dies. Last time Du Baizhi brought three Great Demons and all fell in the Golden Academy. Plus some time ago, Li Yue killed a Great Demon outside the defense line, and Professor Wu Yong also seriously injured a Great Demon, and then that Great Demon was shot and killed by a mythological creature Garuda near Tianchang City... Before and after, five Great Demons have already died on the opponent's side."

Xiao Jianjun said: "Therefore, the opponent's backbone is the Heavenly Demon. As long as we can resist the Heavenly Demons crossing the border, the Demon God Realm will not be enough to fear."

The man named Jiang Bin who spoke just now said: "Xiao Jianjun, don't forget, the Demon God Realm is not just one Tianyue Yao Wang, the Heavenly Moon Tianyue Yao Wang. If he joins forces with other Demon Kings, the number of Great Demons will increase."

"And fighting until now, the Tianyue Yao Wang has not appeared yet. Who among us can confront the Tianyue Yao Wang? Li Yue? I think she is definitely not the Tianyue Yao Wang's opponent. Although she can kill Great Demons, facing that top Tianyue Yao Wang with the Jade Rabbit bloodline, I estimate it is also ominous," Jiang Bin said.

As soon as this was said, many people frowned and fell silent.

Although Jiang Bin's words had the meaning of raising the opponent's ambition and destroying one's own prestige, the words were rough but the truth was not.

That Jade Rabbit bloodline is an existence of the same level as the Golden Crow bloodline in mythological legends. If that Heavenly Moon Tianyue Yao Wang makes a move, the defense line will be torn apart immediately.

"Don't worry. If that Heavenly Moon Tianyue Yao Wang wanted to make a move, he would have made a move long ago. The reason he didn't make a move must be because of some reason that he cannot make a move. Otherwise, this defense war wouldn't have been fought until now."

Suddenly.

An abrupt voice sounded,

"Then it's a deal." Ji Wu agreed immediately.

"It's a deal."

Li Yi nodded slightly. He felt this should be a win-win situation; at the very least, it would allow his master to obtain more profound martial cultivation methods and secure a better future for him.

Just as the two were speaking, the military expert named Xiao Jianguo, whom they had met earlier, walked out of the conference hall.

When he saw Li Yi, he immediately walked over to greet him.

"Hello, Li Yi. My name is Xiao Jianguo. We met just a moment ago."

Xiao Jianguo was very enthusiastic upon seeing Li Yi, and he reached out his hand to express his gratitude for Li Yi having taken down a Heavenly Demon earlier.

"That was the right thing to do; it's nothing. However, you aren't looking for me just to express your thanks, are you? Is there something else you need? If there is, just say it directly. I'm not a person who likes to beat around the bush," Li Yi asked, getting straight to the point.

Xiao Jianguo smiled and said, "There is indeed one thing I need your help with."

"Tell me about it. If I can help, I will do my best. After all, you are also putting in the effort for the safety of Earth," Li Yi said with a hint of respect.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jianguo immediately said, "On the eastern defense line, we are missing a captain capable of dealing with Heavenly Demons. The previous captain sacrificed himself in a major battle. I would like to trouble you to help fill in for at least half a month, so that I have enough time to arrange for a new expert to come and take over."

"Just half a month?" Li Yi asked.

"At least half a month, at most a month," Xiao Jianguo said. "You've seen it yourself; the number of experts on Earth is truly limited, and there are even fewer who can deal with Heavenly Demons. The demand for experts here is very high right now. I hope you can do us this favor, Li Yi. Please."

As he spoke, he bowed to Li Yi.

Hearing this, Li Yi thought about it seriously and then said, "I can agree to this. After all, the crisis in the Demon God Realm concerns everyone's safety. But I still have other things to do at times. How about this: within thirty days, I will get this done."

"Many thanks." Xiao Jianguo let out a sigh of relief and then expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

He knew that many experts from the Golden Academy were unruly and didn't care about the safety of Earth. They would often cross dimensions and leave, having no desire to get involved in the battle against the Demon God Realm.

That Li Yi was willing to contribute his strength even while being wanted by the Profound Immortal Continent was truly remarkable.

If it were anyone else, they would have slipped away long ago to hide in some world and enjoy their life.

In reality, Li Yi had another reason for being willing to stay: he wanted to use this opportunity to hone himself. His cultivation realm had advanced too quickly, causing him to be unable to fully utilize his strength; he needed to familiarize himself with everything he possessed through combat.

Although he had killed a Heavenly Demon earlier, that had relied on the power of the divine bow; he clearly had deficiencies when dealing with such powerful enemies on his own.

After all, once reaching this realm, the way of fighting was no longer the same as before; it was no longer a time when one could roam freely across the Four Seas and Bazhou relying solely on a powerful physique and extremely fast reactions.

Without the Primordial Spirit seed of Xiang Xiangzi, Li Yi felt his comprehension was too poor, especially when it came to using Daoist arts against enemies.

Now, he had to find a way to quickly make up for these flaws through actual combat.
