Chapter 1223: Don't Even Think About It

In Li Xuanqi's words, a very key word was mentioned—aura!

Xu Que suddenly reacted. If it was as Li Xuanqi said, these two souls filled with obsession awakened because of his aura, then everything was clear.

Because of his aura, they mistook him for their child!

Then the one who opened the restriction just now was clearly them!

As for why they would awaken because of the aura...

Xu Que figured out the reason, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.

It was obvious that it was nothing more than two reasons. Either it was because the Imperial Physician Heavenly Book was stained with Xuan Yuan Wanrong's aura, or it was because when he first came to the Tian Continent, in the palace he put away on Snow Mist Mountain, Xuan Yuan Wanrong's wisp of soul remained.

And the possibility of the latter was clearly greater, or perhaps both possibilities existed, which contributed to this misunderstanding!

Thinking of this, Xu Que couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and then he pretended to sigh, shaking his head with a face full of sorrow and sadness: "Sigh, they left too early, and I also regret sealing myself back then. When I woke up, everything had already changed!"

"..." Li Xuanqi nodded silently, also feeling deeply moved, indicating that he could understand this feeling.

But the next moment, Xu Que suddenly glared at Li Xuanqi and said in a deep voice: "That's right, coming back to the topic, Li Xuanqi, this old man seems to have an account to settle with you!"

"Ah? Brother Xu, I... when did I owe you an account?" Li Xuanqi was a bit confused.

Xu Que immediately sneered: "Your Heavenly Palace Academy seems to be currently hunting me down. Tell me, should this account be settled with you, or with the rest of the Heavenly Palace Academy?"

"What? This..." Li Xuanqi was stunned upon hearing this.

He had not cared about worldly affairs for many years, and to some extent, he was already dead. Even this body was just a shell that looked good but was useless, and could only walk in the ancestral tomb. Once he left the ancestral tomb, his soul would fly away and scatter.

Of course, this was only the case for now. After all, after several more years, he would eventually be able to achieve perfection and leave this place.

However, Xu Que came to him now to complain about the Heavenly Palace Academy, and he was truly a bit frightened. Although he didn't know why the Heavenly Palace Academy wanted to hunt Xu Que down, the other party now had two great powers protecting him, and they could easily crush him to death without any reason.

Then his life's work would also be in vain.

"Brother Xu, this must be a misunderstanding. According to seniority, you are my Li Xuanqi's Ancestral Master, so you are also the Ancestral Master of the Heavenly Palace Academy. They just didn't know your identity, that's why they did this. I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against them!" Li Xuanqi said hurriedly, fearing that Xu Que would really use this reason to let those two ancestors destroy him.

"Heh, if this old man really wanted to hold it against them, do you think the Heavenly Palace Academy could still exist now? This old man is just too lazy to bother, but they are still as annoying as flies, and this old man's patience is also limited!" Xu Que said lightly, his tone full of arrogance and disdain.

Li Xuanqi immediately replied: "Brother Xu, rest assured, in a few days, it will be the ancestral memorial day of our Heavenly Palace Academy. At that time, all the Tower Masters and Deans of the academy will come to pay respects and receive inheritance. At that time, I will personally come forward and introduce your identity to them."

Saying this, Li Xuanqi hesitated, then looked up firmly and said: "Brother Xu, I have a presumptuous request. Since the Heavenly Palace Academy is no longer here, can you join our Heavenly Palace Academy, lead it toward strength, and in the future, we will work together to revive the Heavenly Palace Academy and restore the glory of the Heavenly Palace Academy in the past!"

He said it very sincerely, because reviving the Heavenly Palace Academy was indeed his dream and obsession!

If he could complete this grand ambition, it would also be a huge improvement for his Dao. Only by fulfilling his wish could he go higher and further!

And now, Xu Que's appearance, plus those two obsession-filled souls, made him see hope, great hope!

"Join your Heavenly Palace Academy?" At this time, Xu Que laughed, shook his head, and said with a face full of disdain: "Li Xuanqi, do you think your broken Heavenly Palace Academy is qualified to accommodate me? Don't look at my low cultivation now, but I still have the strength and aptitude. Even if you give me a Tower Master position now, I wouldn't even look at it!"

Li Xuanqi immediately said solemnly: "Brother Xu misunderstood. Although your cultivation is slightly lower now, I sincerely invite you to serve as the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Palace Academy. In the future, when your cultivation improves, even if the entire Heavenly Palace Academy is handed over to you, it will not be a problem! My only request is that I hope you can work with me to revive the Heavenly Palace Academy!"

Vice Dean?

Xu Que's eyes widened slightly, trying hard to restrain the expression of wanting to laugh out loud.

Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude outside the cave had already been completely impressed.

Mo Junchen's worldview was even more subverted, his heart shaken, finding it hard to believe.

Previously, he had strongly disagreed with the methods of Xu Que and Er Gouzi, thinking they were too base, too shameless, and too despicable, and because there was no way, he couldn't get off the pirate ship, so he could only force himself to accept it!

But now, he was completely dumbfounded, watching Xu Que use such methods in just a few words, actually being invited by Li Xuanqi to serve as the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Palace Academy!

This...

This is simply...

Awesome!

Mo Junchen's breathing couldn't help but quicken, feeling that his Dao had vaguely gained a huge harvest!

He suddenly realized that there was no distinction between good and evil in this world; everything was just the view of worldly people. Anyway, as long as one had good intentions in one's heart and upheld principles, any method could be used!

Even if the methods were base, despicable, and shameless, so what?

Didn't he see Gang Leader Xu personally demonstrating it?

"Protector Mo, what are you doing? Suddenly breathing so heavily, is it necessary to be so excited? This is just Brother Que's normal operation!" At this time, Er Gouzi discovered Mo Junchen's abnormality and said with a face full of disdain.

"No, I just suddenly discovered a new way to look at this world. It is truly... no regrets joining the Zha Tian Bang in this life!" Mo Junchen said somewhat happily, thinking that he had been sublimated and had made progress, able to accept new things!

However, Liu Jingning on the side already wanted to reach out and support her forehead, sighing in her heart, it's over, he taught another one bad!

Soon, seven days passed just like that!

Er Gouzi, Mo Junchen, and the others were still fixed outside the cave, unable to move!

Xu Que was also still held in the arms of Guan Chuchu's soul, and Xuanyuan Qishang stood on the side like an unfallen giant, always guarding.

Li Xuanqi was also standing not far away. He invited Xu Que to serve as the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Palace Academy. Xu Que gave him an answer to consider it, plus the ancestral memorial day of the Heavenly Palace Academy was approaching, so he simply didn't go back, directly guarding here and chatting with Xu Que, talking about his days in the Heavenly Palace Academy back then, wanting to pull closer his relationship with Xu Que.

After all, in his eyes, the two souls beside Xu Que were very worthy of him doing so.

In fact, Xu Que had also been happy for seven days and seven nights. Serving as the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Palace Academy, only a fool would not want such a good thing!

Once he became the Vice Dean...

The Saint Sect's Dao Fetus Divine Body is nothing!

The Shennong Clan is nothing!

I can see Jiang Hongyan whenever I want, and I can even announce my sovereignty in front of everyone, pissing off a group of people!

However, as a generation of the King of Acting Cool, I must maintain the necessary arrogance; I cannot lose my style. If I were to agree to Li Xuanqi too quickly, I would appear too cheap!

"Brother Xu, I really hope to see the glory of the Heavenly Palace Academy reappear. Now that only the two of us are left in the Heavenly Palace Academy, we should shoulder this heavy responsibility!" Li Xuanqi was still bitterly persuading.

Xu Que calculated the days. The ancestral memorial day Li Xuanqi mentioned before was today. The Tower Masters and Deans of the Heavenly Palace Academy should be coming over soon!

Immediately, he put on a full posture, pretended to sigh, and said: "Sigh, forget it, forget it. Li Xuanqi, since you have such a grand ambition and sincerely invite this old man, then this old man has no choice but to show mercy and agree to you. Besides, this old man also misses the Heavenly Palace Academy very much, so as you wish, I will work with you to revive the Heavenly Palace Academy!"

"Good, this is truly great, thank you Brother Xu for fulfilling it!" Li Xuanqi said with surprise on the spot.

For him, Xu Que agreeing to this matter meant that the two powerful ancestor souls would also become the foundation of the Heavenly Palace Academy.

From now on, it would be easy for the Heavenly Palace Academy to dominate the Tian Continent, and reviving the Heavenly Palace Academy would be just around the corner!

"Swish!"

At this time, a stream of light suddenly swept from the depths of the cave, appearing directly on the stone wall in the cave, turning into a wisp of radiance.

"Eh, the disciples of my Heavenly Palace Academy have already arrived. It turns out today is the ancestral memorial day, truly a double blessing. Brother Xu, I will go and open the restriction to let them in first, and introduce you to them properly!" Li Xuanqi looked at the radiance on the stone wall, smiled happily, and turned to leave directly.

Xu Que watched his departing figure, and the smile at the corner of his mouth was already raised high.

Heavenly Palace Academy...

Hehe, if I don't mess you up after going out, my surname isn't Xu!

Reviving the Heavenly Palace Academy, don't even think about it, it doesn't exist!

There can only be one hegemon in the Tian Continent from now on, and that is my Zha Tian Bang!
