Chapter 876: Planning (Second update, requesting everything)

If Dou Zhangsheng were truly plotting against him, there would be very few people Li Zhangsheng could trust; after all, Dou Zhangsheng is the Emperor of the Langya Kingdom and a King, so once he publicly supported Li Zhangsheng, the consequences would be severe.

It is for this reason that even though Li Zhangsheng has immense influence within the Yuanling Academy, there are truly not many people he can trust.

At the very first moment, Li Zhangsheng automatically ruled out those who were weak in strength and burdened by their families.

In this way, the scope became even smaller.

Li Zhangsheng thought for a moment and said, "Bizhen, let's go find Principal Xu."

Within the Yuanling Academy, aside from Ning Bizhen, the person Li Zhangsheng is most willing to trust is Xu Wenhua, who is also the person he respects the most.

However, at the thought of potentially dragging Xu Wenhua into the water, Li Zhangsheng felt a sense of shame in his heart.

"If that kind of thing really happens, I must try my best to compensate Principal Xu."

Li Zhangsheng secretly said to himself; according to the plan, Xu Wenhua would also have to take a great risk.

Soon, in the principal's office, the two met with Xu Wenhua.

After the two entered, Xu Wenhua stroked his graying beard and said with a smile, "Let me guess your intentions; hmm, the Academy has rewarded you with so many Academic Credits, you must be here to exchange them for items."

"Principal, the main reason we came to see you this time is to discuss a major matter."

While speaking, Li Zhangsheng waved his hand, and the door to the principal's office closed automatically.

Seeing Li Zhangsheng's action, Xu Wenhua restrained his smile and immediately activated the sound-blocking Restriction of the office, preventing outsiders from hearing the content of their conversation.

"Principal, the situation is like this..."

Li Zhangsheng recounted what had just happened and his own deductions, naturally focusing on the suspicion that a Stronger had disrupted the Heavenly Dao concerning him, causing the Predict Good or Ill Fortune of all four cats to fail.

Hearing Li Zhangsheng say this, Xu Wenhua's face was filled with gravity; he pondered for a moment and then asked, "In other words, you suspect someone is interfering, and the primary suspect is the current Emperor?"

"Yes, it could also be the Third Prince!"

"The Third Prince is impossible; it is almost impossible for him to get a Stronger of that rank to disrupt your Heavenly Dao. Moreover, given your strength, to kill you, one would have to hire a King or several top-tier Pseudo-Kings; he cannot afford such a price."

Xu Wenhua shook his head, directly ruling out the Third Prince Dou Yuanbin, and continued, "In my opinion, it is either the current Emperor who wants to deal with you, or it is a Stronger from another country, such as the Kailing Empire or the Tianshuang Empire!"

The Kailing Empire goes without saying; the number of spots the Kailing Empire obtained for the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm this time hit a new low, and Li Zhangsheng definitely deserved the credit for that.

And the Tianshuang Empire is a country ruled by the Xuan Emperor; Li Zhangsheng suppressed the Kun King Yan Wanling in the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm to become the number one person, so, counting it up, they also have the motive to do this.

Simply put, Li Zhangsheng blocked their path.

Not to mention Li Zhangsheng's secrets, his age alone gives him a huge advantage; he has a high probability of monopolizing the number one spot in the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm for more than ten sessions. For some young Stronger who aspire to be number one, this can be called a grudge of blocking the path.

This is also why Li Zhangsheng insisted on going to Yecheng; firstly, to buy time for his clansmen, and secondly, to confirm the enemy, as hidden enemies are the most dangerous.

Of course, the premise of everything is that he possesses the strength to protect himself.

In Li Zhangsheng's view, unless the Dark Night King Dou Cangqiong takes action personally, if he is determined to escape, no one in the Langya Kingdom can stop him.

Hmm, he is just that confident!

"Tell me the truth, what level is your current strength roughly at?"

Li Zhangsheng pondered for a moment and said, "I can probably contend with a Senior King."

Only by possessing two or three Saint Grade Spirit Pet can one be considered a Senior King.

Among them, the Langya Kingdom only has one Senior King, and that is the Flame King Di Zhiyi, who has guarded the other Abyss Gate for many years.

As for the Butterfly King Luo Qingning, it is rumored that she has not yet reached the level of a Senior King, and Dou Zhangsheng goes without saying.

In Li Zhangsheng's view, Aixi and Kailan can contend with ordinary Saint Grade Spirit Pet, and he has many Demon Beast in his hands that are at the level of top-tier Demon King; if the advantage of a Senior King is the Secret Realm, then Li Zhangsheng has the advantage of quantity.

When it comes to the number of Demon King level Demon Pet, no one in the Langya Kingdom can surpass him.

"A Senior King!"

Xu Wenhua was clearly taken aback; how long has it been, and Li Zhangsheng can actually contend with a Senior King.

Originally, he thought Li Zhangsheng could at most contend with a New King, but the result was a Senior King. Xu Wenhua did not think Li Zhangsheng was lying; after all, at a time like this, there was simply no need to lie.

Seeming afraid that Xu Wenhua had not been hit hard enough, Li Zhangsheng continued, "In addition, Bizhen is not much worse than a New King; at the very least, she can drag things out for a period of time."

Clang~

Xu Wenhua was so startled that he knocked over the brush washer on the table. Li Zhangsheng was one thing, but now Ning Bizhen had also caught up from behind, and her strength also exceeded his. Clearly, during the National Tournament, she was only on par with him; how long had it been since then?

Xu Wenhua took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems I cannot help much. How about this, I will take the other three Vice Principals to the Royal Academy to help you drag out the Butterfly King and that girl Sun Min."

In his choice, Xu Wenhua ultimately leaned towards Li Zhangsheng.

Upon learning that Xu Wenhua was willing to help with all his might, Li Zhangsheng could not help but feel a bit moved, but at the same time, he was a bit worried.

"Principal, won't this be dangerous?"

Although they are four Pseudo-Kings, except for Xu Wenhua, Zhang Kaishuo, Ning Wei, and Qian Yuanfei are all just New Pseudo-Kings; the four of them combined could not possibly be the opponent of the Butterfly King Luo Qingning.

"Bring Luo Xiaoman along when the time comes; with her there, there shouldn't be any danger."

Luo Xiaoman is the niece of the Butterfly King Luo Qingning. Luo Qingning has no offspring and treats Luo Xiaoman exactly like her own daughter. With Luo Xiaoman present, the lives of Xu Wenhua and the others can basically be guaranteed.

At this time, Ning Bizhen interjected, "By the way, Principal Sun Min still owes us a promise from last time; we can use it this time."

After the first Fire Flame Secret Realm ended, Ning Bizhen gave Sun Min a Red Fire Dragon Scale Fruit. In the end, Sun Min chose to remain neutral, but she owed a promise that had not been used until now.

Xu Wenhua did not expect this either and could not help but say with a smile, "Then there will be even less danger."

Not long after, the three finished their discussion and chose a plan to seek victory through stability.

Li Zhangsheng went to his family again, asking Li Wenbo to summon the clansmen who were still outside as soon as possible, while also having them prepare for relocation.

"I hope it's just a false alarm!"

Looking at his increasingly prosperous family, Li Zhangsheng muttered to himself. This place that gave birth to him and raised him—to tell the truth, he really could not bear to part with it, but if it truly reached the point of no return, he could only temporarily abandon these family assets and wait to make a comeback in the future.
