Chapter 626: Is My Yuanling Academy Nobody to You? (First update, requesting all)

Soon, on the route between the Academy District and Luo City, Li Changsheng found three sneaky figures.

Although they had done some disguising, wearing Human Skin Masks and even restraining their auras, they could not escape notice under his Heavenly Vision Secret Technique.

The Heavenly Vision Secret Technique can penetrate obstacles, which naturally includes so-called Human Skin Masks; only something like a Hundred-Change Thousand-Illusion Mask might possibly block it.

"Dou Yuanbin, Liu Zongtang, Liu Xuguang—I didn't expect all three of these guys to be gathered together. Since you want my life, then today, no matter what, I must give you an unforgettable memory."

Li Changsheng felt secret resentment; these three guys clearly wanted his life, and since that was the case, he would absolutely not let them have an easy time.

Even if he couldn't keep them there, he would make them pay a price.

However, these were three Pseudo-Kings after all; with the strength of Li Changsheng and Ning Bizhen, they could at most hold a slight upper hand, and it would be very difficult to make them pay a price.

Furthermore, if it came to that, the news of Li Changsheng advancing to Pseudo-King would be exposed.

On a small hill more than ten kilometers away from the Academy District, Dou Yuanbin, Liu Zongtang, and Liu Xuguang gathered, the three of them beginning to chat listlessly, quietly waiting for Li Changsheng's arrival.

Liu Zongtang looked at Dou Yuanbin and asked, "Third Prince, if he appears, how much certainty do you have of finishing him off?"

"Ninety percent, I suppose!" Dou Yuanbin gave his answer, then thought for a moment and added, "The reason it is only ninety percent is mainly because there is an unstable factor, and that is Vice Principal Ning Bizhen of Yuanling Academy. If nothing goes wrong, Li Changsheng will very likely bring her along."

"Then is there any way to make them separate temporarily?"

Dou Yuanbin shook his head and replied, "It cannot be done for the time being."

At this moment, Liu Xuguang interjected, "Since that's the case, when we engage in battle later, I will do my best to entangle her; as for that brat, I'll leave him to you two."

"By the way, how much longer do we have to wait?"

"I have already had my subordinates use a large sum of money to bribe a member of the Li Clan; I believe Li Changsheng will receive the news very soon."

Dou Yuanbin's face was full of confidence and a slightly ferocious smile; ever since he was humiliated at the racing competition, he had held a grudge against Li Changsheng.

Having always held a high position since he was young, when had Dou Yuanbin ever suffered such a big loss? Acting on the principle of not letting revenge wait overnight, this plot was conceived.

Besides this, this plan could also completely bind the Langya Liu Clan to his chariot, which could be described as killing many birds with one stone.

From beginning to end, the three Pseudo-Kings did not sense Li Changsheng's prying gaze.

This was mainly related to Li Changsheng's realm; everyone was of the same realm, and the Heavenly Vision Secret Technique was a top-tier secret technique. Unless one had sensing-type treasures, it was very difficult to detect it by relying on a sixth sense.

At Yuanling Academy, after seeing through the three men's tracks, a plan came to Li Changsheng's mind, and he said to Ning Bizhen, "Bizhen, let's go find the Principal; I am prepared to discuss a major matter with him!"

Ning Bizhen did not ask further and accompanied Li Changsheng to the residence where Xu Wenhua lived.

Soon, they met Xu Wenhua in the reception hall.

"Changsheng, how is your clan doing?"

As a qualified Principal, Xu Wenhua was well-informed about the things happening in Yuanling Academy.

"Thanks to the Principal, it has already been resolved. However, they were just lackeys acting on orders; the mastermind is someone else."

Xu Wenhua frowned and asked, "Then who is the mastermind?"

"The Third Prince and the Langya Liu Clan!"

Li Changsheng did not hide anything from Xu Wenhua, because he knew Xu Wenhua would stand on his side.

"What!"

Xu Wenhua was greatly shocked and stood straight up from his seat; clearly, this news exceeded his expectations.

At this moment, he thought of the conflict regarding the Fire Flame Secret Realm half a year ago. At that time, wasn't Dou Yuanbin clearly showing favoritism? On the surface, it seemed fair and just, but in reality, he wanted to put Li Changsheng to death.

"Right now they are lying in ambush outside, waiting for me to take the bait!"

Li Changsheng feigned a self-deprecating laugh, placing himself in the position of the weak.

"Bastards, is this bullying my Yuanling Academy for having no one!"

Xu Wenhua was in a rage and slapped the table in front of him; the perfectly good table became the object of his venting and was directly smashed into powder.

Xu Wenhua was somewhat wary of the Third Prince, but not excessively so. Even if the Third Prince was the hottest candidate for the next Emperor, he was not the Emperor after all.

Of course, he could punish him, but the premise was that he could not kill him; otherwise, Xu Wenhua would not be able to bear the Imperial Family's blame.

When it came down to it, Yuanling Academy was also an institution of the Langya Kingdom, and its ability to withstand pressure had its limits.

Suddenly, Ning Bizhen interjected, "Principal, we indeed cannot move against the Third Prince, but the Langya Liu Clan can be targeted!"

"However, they are Pseudo-Kings after all; even if we all strike together, it is very difficult to keep one of them here."

"Principal, human effort can achieve anything. Since we cannot keep them, we will try our best to weaken their strength. Since they intend to ambush me, we will just go with the flow..."

Li Changsheng stated his plan, but this required Xu Wenhua's support.

Xu Wenhua pondered for a moment and finally agreed to his plan.

The three began to take action; Xu Wenhua and Ning Bizhen were responsible for gathering people, summoning the various high-level members of the Academy.

Although there was a significant gap between a Sixth-Rank Expert and a Pseudo-King, from the perspective of overall combat power, one Sixth-Rank Expert was almost equivalent to a Demon King-level Demon Pet.

Li Changsheng took out a miniature carriage, and as his thoughts moved, the carriage rapidly enlarged, and the two chains on it were tied to the Black Dragon and Red Dragon.

Soon, Li Changsheng made some adjustments to the carriage, adding a temporary Strengthened Breath-Concealing Restriction and a Defense Restriction, only then declaring it finished.

Just at this moment, a youth hurried over toward this side, with two gate guards following beside him.

Li Changsheng remembered he was called Li Xiaoguang, a member of a side branch of the clan. At the time, he was among the group of clan members who entered the Academy District together with the Li Clan Four Heroes, only he was enrolled in a small academy in the Academy District.

Li Xiaoguang panted and said, "Changsheng, I finally found you. The clan has met with disaster; there is a danger of extermination!"

Looking at Li Xiaoguang, Li Changsheng asked strangely, "How did you know the clan was in trouble?"

It was strange; Li Xiaoguang's information was too well-informed. At most, it had been an hour. Given the distance between the Academy District and Luo City, unless a Demon King-level Flying Demon Pet was used to deliver the message, this amount of time would not be enough.

As for the Teleportation Array, only the high-level members of the clan and a few clan members in Yuanling Academy knew about it; given Li Xiaoguang's status in the clan, he was naturally not among them.

"Ah!"

Li Changsheng's question exceeded his expectations. Shouldn't a normal person anxiously ask what happened to the clan? How could he completely fail to play by the rules? This also made Li Xiaoguang pause.

"That is not important; what is important is that the clan is in danger of extermination. We must immediately, right now, return to the clan; perhaps there is still time."

Li Xiaoguang was evasive, and his eyes did not dare to look directly at Li Changsheng.

Seeing his appearance, Li Changsheng vaguely understood something. His mouth moved, but Li Xiaoguang did not hear anything; clearly, he was using sound transmission.

Very quickly, Li Jingyi, who had been guarding the Teleportation Array, walked over toward this side.

Li Jingyi stared at Li Xiaoguang with a cold gaze and said in a stiff tone, "Li Xiaoguang, come with me!"

"Ah, where are we going?"

"Just follow me, that's all you need to do."

Without allowing for any argument, Li Jingyi returned to the room containing the Teleportation Array.

"Go!"

Li Zhangsheng nodded toward Li Xiaoguang, and the latter followed hesitantly.

Li Xiaoguang was full of suspicious points and had a high probability of having been bought off; Li Zhangsheng did not have the time for this, so it was enough to hand such matters over to the family for investigation.

Not long after waiting, the seven top-level figures of Yuanling Academy arrived together, consisting of three Pseudo-Kings and four Sixth-Rank Experts; even if Li Zhangsheng did not make a move, such a lineup was enough to easily suppress Dou Yuanbin and the other two.

"Changsheng, I didn't expect you to have such an exquisite vehicle!"

"Yes, it feels much stronger than the Dragon Horse Hall."

Seeing Li Zhangsheng's vehicle, several top-level figures praised it endlessly; they had extraordinary discernment and could naturally tell that the materials of the carriage were not ordinary items.

"I will have to trouble you all this time."

"Heh, there's no need to be so formal among our own people!"

"Alright, no need for such pleasantries, why haven't you all gone in yet!"

Xu Wenhua interrupted their words and led the six top-level figures into the carriage.

The carriage was quite spacious; even with eight people inside, it did not appear crowded in the slightest.

The seven top-level figures had clearly discussed it, summoning some petite Demon Pets in advance to avoid any accidents.

Li Zhangsheng began to activate the Strengthened Breath-Concealing Restriction; apart from his own aura, the auras of the seven top-level figures and their Demon Pets were completely concealed.

"Set off!"

Following Li Zhangsheng's order, two thirty-meter-long giant dragons pulled the carriage and sped off in the direction of Luo City.

During the flight, the purple carriage began to emit many strange phenomena, and coupled with the two giant dragons that were a full thirty meters long, it truly attracted the attention of quite a few people, even in the middle of the night.

There was no helping it; this carriage was designed too ostentatiously, and its sound and light effects were quite astonishing.

Not long after, Dou Yuanbin and the other two discovered the speeding vehicle.

Regarding this carriage, Dou Yuanbin and the other two could be said to be quite astonished, because vehicles of this grade could barely be counted on one hand in the entire Langya Kingdom.

Looking at the black dragon and red dragon pulling the carriage, Dou Yuanbin naturally recognized them as Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets, so the owner of the vehicle could be easily guessed.

Dou Yuanbin could not help but feel jealous; even as the noble Third Prince, his own travel vehicle was not as good as Li Zhangsheng's, and it was inferior by more than one grade.

"This is definitely a relic of Flame King Di Zhiyi!"

Unlike Dou Yuanbin, Liu Zongtang and Liu Xuguang subconsciously believed that this vehicle came from Flame King Di Zhiyi.

"Everyone, when that vehicle comes over, let us all strike with full force and strive to kill with a single blow!"

Receiving Dou Yuanbin's voice transmission, Liu Zongtang and Liu Xuguang nodded vigorously; as for whether they would fall out with Dou Yuanbin later over the 'inheritance of Di Zhiyi', only they themselves knew.

Happy Dragon Boat Festival to everyone, may your families be happy, harmonious, and fulfilled!

The poor word-grinder still has to continue the life of grinding words.

Today's goal: Three, Pig, Proof!
