Chapter 76: Such Framing, We Can Have More of It
Lingxu already had this plan in mind; after all, he remembered a great man once said that one punch thrown can prevent a hundred punches from coming.
Since he already possessed this strength, why bother pretending anymore?
When he agreed to let Qian Daoliu do this back then, he also didn't know that the mission to change Qian Renxue's life would provide such good rewards.
This truly changed Qian Renxue's life, and could also be considered as having changed his own life.
However, although Lingxu's words seemed domineering, they caused the others to fall into deep thought!
Ling Bufan spoke up first: "Son, although your old man isn't afraid of trouble, being enemies with both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect at the same time, and right here under Heaven Dou City, is extremely disadvantageous for us!"
After hearing this, Luo Xingyue nodded slightly and added: "That's right, but son, whatever you want to do, your father and I will always support you!"
As they spoke, everyone including Qian Renxue, Luo Liu'er, and Luo Yun'er nodded to show their agreement!
Among the group, only the Pufferfish Douluo and the Serpent Spear Douluo were somewhat hesitant, but following a glance from Qian Renxue, both of them nodded one after another.
"Thank you! But everyone can rest assured; even if they join forces, our Lingxue Sacred Land can handle it," Lingxu said confidently.
"Brother Lingxu, when are we going inside to take a look?"
Qian Renxue looked at Lingxu with a curious expression; even Qian Renxue was not clear about what was actually inside!
Lingxu had nothing to hide from Qian Renxue, but with the Pufferfish Douluo and the Serpent Spear Douluo present, could he tell them?
But since they had already nodded and practiced the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art, they would be able to feel the benefits brought to them inside the Lingxue Sacred Land even more.
Lingxu said: "Let's go in and take a look now!"
After everyone went in, their cultivation speed increased, which was also beneficial for Lingxu, as he could obtain more cultivation effects.
"Good!" Ling Bufan also nodded and said.
He had long wanted to know about everything in the back mountain, and this also seemed to be Lingxu's trump card.
The group followed behind Lingxu; a wall had been built behind Lingxue Academy, with two large gates in the middle.
Opening the gates, behind them was a small path. As far as everyone's eyes could see, the area ahead was just a normal forest, but in reality, this was all an illusion, visible only when looking from the outside.
Lingxu said: "Everyone, stay within twenty meters of me. It is very dangerous to fall behind and enter the formations, especially the Killing Array."
There was a buffer zone of over twenty meters from the wall to the Lingxue Sacred Land, and Lingxu had also set up quite a few signs in these twenty-plus meters, on which was written "Forbidden Area, Do Not Enter."
The group followed Lingxu closely, and Lingxu also took Qian Renxue's hand.
After walking past the twenty-plus meters, the group entered the Maze Array.
Fortunately, with Lingxu there, the Maze Array had no effect on anyone.
Walking along the path, after traveling about fifty meters, the group saw one majestic building after another.
They had a rather classical Chinese style, antique and elegant, looking very comfortable, and were quite different from the architectural layout of the Douluo Continent.
"Is this the Lingxue Sacred Land?" Qian Renxue asked in surprise; this had completely exceeded the image she had in her mind.
Lingxu said: "Everyone, try it out; circulate the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art and then feel it carefully."
"Good!" After hearing this, Qian Renxue was the first to start trying.
Subsequently, Ling Bufan, Luo Xingyue, and the others all began to try circulating the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art.
In the Lingxue Sacred Land, practicing the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art provided a ten percent bonus.
This was not just a small increase; after the group circulated the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art, they immediately felt the change.
"Brother Lingxu, the cultivation speed here seems to have become quite a bit faster," Qian Renxue said happily.
After finishing the experience, Ling Bufan also spoke up: "It has improved the cultivation speed by at least 10% compared to the outside."
"Could it be that this is the benefit of the Lingxue Sacred Land?"
"Son, in such a short time, did you create this place?" Ling Bufan finally couldn't help but ask.
Regarding this, Lingxu had actually already prepared his story.
"Actually, this didn't come from my hands, but rather..."
Lingxu hesitated, pointing his finger toward the sky.
The implication was self-evident; Qian Renxue said: "A god?"
But did a god have this ability?
Qian Renxue felt somewhat curious in her heart; such a massive project, and so miraculous.
"I'm not exactly sure myself, but the person who gave this to me is very mysterious and also very powerful. I was able to improve so quickly because of his help, but I cannot reveal who he is," Lingxu said solemnly.
"Brother Lingxu, since you can't say, then don't. This place is truly good for our cultivation, and the environment is also much more comfortable."
"Hurry and take us to see it." Qian Renxue immediately helped Lingxu smooth things over.
"Good, everyone follow me."
The Lingxue Sacred Land was very large; Lingxu then led everyone around for over an hour before they had barely finished looking at it, though there was one place Lingxu did not take the group to.
That was the area where the four guardian Spirit Beasts were located!
With such a good place, even if they couldn't win, they could hide inside.
Having seen the Lingxue Sacred Land today, everyone was full of confidence upon returning, wishing they could move in immediately to enjoy the 10% cultivation bonus.
Naturally, the ones who felt it the most were the Pufferfish Douluo and the Serpent Spear Douluo; now, they were somewhat unwilling to even return to the Spirit Hall.
Returning to the Spirit Hall, how could it be as good as staying here?
Early the next morning, over a dozen people from the Heaven Dou Empire Ministry of Education arrived.
According to the procedure, they first inspected the academy's teaching staff.
After finding no problems, they began to test the infrastructure.
Fortunately, Lingxu had spent a huge fortune building the academy, so the infrastructure was quite perfect.
These people tested for a long time and even measured precise dimensions.
It could be said that their behavior was nitpicking, and under such circumstances, they only managed to find some unimportant things.
In the end, he only said that the specific results would await approval from above.
After these people left, Lingxu flashed and arrived under a large tree in the most inconspicuous corner of the academy.
While everyone's attention was on their inspection, one of the inspectors snuck off to several places in the academy.
Under Lingxu's feet, the seemingly ordinary soil was perfectly restored, but Lingxu observed with his Mental Power that someone had just dug it up and placed something inside.
Lingxu took out his tools, and after digging to a depth of one meter, he discovered a box.
The box was surprisingly similar to the one Qian Renxue brought out from the Tiandou Huanggong, and this box contained a full two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.
"Let the inspectors attract everyone's attention, and then have someone bury things to frame me?"
The scheme is very old-fashioned, but it works, especially when it comes to an empire.
The people they sent today did indeed attract most of the people in the academy, but they also overlooked Lingxu's control over this Lingxue Academy.
Lingxu remembered there were five such places in total; after returning the soil to its original state, Lingxu went to another location and successfully dug out another one.
Before long, Lingxu collected five boxes into the system, totaling nearly one million Gold Soul Coins.
"I like this method; Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it really has to be you—'you can't catch a wolf without risking your child' is truly used well, but you met me!" Lingxu smiled.
And from this, Lingxu could also see the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's next plan!
