Chapter 1229

"Ah?" Li Qinghe, along with everyone present, was stunned.

Li Xuanqi was also full of astonishment. What kind of moth is this descendant of the ancestor trying to make again?

"Hmph!" At this moment, Xu Que snorted coldly and sternly accused: "Although I am now the Vice Dean, I don't want you to treat my son Xu Que with any special treatment, and I don't approve of any extravagant welcome ceremonies. We should all hate these behaviors deeply!

Since we run an academy, we should set the focus right, teach and educate people, and shouldn't engage in those special treatment tricks. We should walk into the masses... phew, no, we should walk into the students, integrate with the students, and get along with the students. We must adhere to the teaching philosophy of fairness, openness, and justice, and cannot divide students into three, six, or nine grades. The so-called 'ten years to grow trees, a hundred years to grow people,' don't you understand this point yet?"

In an instant, the whole place was silent!

Xu Que's series of lectures completely stunned everyone present.

Although they were all human spirits who had cultivated for countless years, Xu Que's set of rhetoric was moved out, and they were stunned, feeling that at this moment Xu Que was a great teacher!

"Li Xuanqi, you were also a disciple of the Heavenly Palace Academy back then. Don't you know the academy rules of the inner courtyard of the Heavenly Palace Academy?" At this moment, Xu Que's gaze swept toward Li Xuanqi.

Li Xuanqi was stunned. I was only an outer courtyard disciple back then!

"Yes, yes, Brother Xu is very right. Did you all hear clearly?" Li Xuanqi looked at Li Qinghe and the others again.

"Understood!" Li Qinghe responded helplessly.

However, everyone present also began to carefully reflect, finding that Xu Que's set of arguments really made some sense.

In the current Heavenly Palace Academy, most resources are used by their own family members, while other disciples basically rely on the resources of the forces behind them to cultivate, so there are basically no drawbacks.

But this will also cause some poor disciples, because of the lack of resources, to have slow cultivation, wasting their excellent aptitude!

If the Heavenly Palace Academy used the set of academy rules mentioned by this Xu Lao back then, it's no wonder the Heavenly Palace Academy could develop so strongly back then. It turns out this is one of the reasons!

Everyone nodded in realization, and a trace of respect surged in their hearts.

Having such a side to this Xu Lao, they were also relieved. After all, the starting point was still for the good of the Heavenly Palace Academy, and he even led by example, not allowing the academy to treat his son with special treatment. This point was particularly convincing!

"Xu Lao, rest assured, we understand!" Finally, Li Qinghe nodded and smiled.

"Hmm, it's good that you understand!" Xu Que nodded satisfactorily, and added: "However, I also understand your intentions. When he comes, although you cannot hold an extravagant welcome ceremony, I won't object if you send some immortal artifacts or spirit medicines or something. And I will also record the gifts you send and report them to the whole academy to express my gratitude!"

"Ah?" Everyone present widened their eyes.

Send gifts?

You said you wouldn't hold a welcome ceremony, but you actually want to receive gifts?

"What 'ah'? I warn you, don't send anything too precious. Just send some small gifts. The gift is light but the affection is heavy. You should understand this truth!" Xu Que stared with his eyes, righteous and awe-inspiring.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be just sending some small gifts to go through the motions, then that was fine!

"Sigh, I am still very worried, afraid that you will misunderstand and send some precious gifts, which would be embarrassing!

Really, believe me, it's okay! Is it possible that I would give you a hard time in the academy, poison your pill bottles, or throw hidden weapons while you are cultivating because the gifts you sent are not precious enough? No, it doesn't exist, rest assured, I am definitely not that kind of person!"

Xu Que hinted frantically!

Everyone present was already sweating, and they all looked at Li Xuanqi, their expressions a bit resentful.

Ancestral Master, are you sure you really want to put this person in the Heavenly Palace Academy as Vice Dean?

Li Xuanqi also had a headache at this moment, suddenly a bit regretful, reflecting on whether his choice was wrong!

But when he saw the two ancestor souls standing behind Xu Que, he erased his wavering thoughts!

He could ignore what Xu Que had done before, and could be tolerant of Xu Que in front of his descendants, but all this was based on those two powerful souls. Without these two souls, he couldn't have talked so much nonsense with Xu Que, and would have slapped him to death long ago!

What's more, Xu Que hadn't done anything out of line now. At most, he looked a bit unreliable, but so what if he was unreliable? The person the Heavenly Palace Academy really needed wasn't him, but those two ancestor souls!

Finally, with the resentful eyes of a group of people, Xu Que took Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude and his party, walking out of the tomb chamber with their heads held high, toward the exit.

Since he had become the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Palace Academy, Xu Que had nothing to worry about. Naturally, he went out from the main entrance of the ancestral tomb and wanted to see Jiang Hongyan along the way.

Li Qinghe even personally took out a Vice Dean token and gave it to him, making it convenient for him to pass through the Heavenly Palace Academy. As for notifying the world that the Heavenly Palace Academy had an extra Vice Dean, it would have to wait until they finished the ancestral worship.

Xu Que also thought that he could turn over and become the master this time. With two awesome souls by his side, who in this world would dare to provoke this King of Acting Cool?

However, just as they stepped out of the ancestral tomb, layers of mist evaporated from the two souls, and the souls were dissipating rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Damn, kid, go back quickly!" Er Gouzi exclaimed immediately, pulling Xu Que and jumping back into the ancestral tomb.

The two souls also followed in blankly, and only then did they stop dissipating and return to normal.

Xu Que immediately frowned and fell silent.

He naturally understood what was going on in this situation. It was very similar to Li Xuanqi's situation. These two souls were unable to leave the ancestral tomb.

To some extent, these two souls, including Li Xuanqi, were existences that the Heavenly Dao did not tolerate. They had already exhausted their lifespans and should have died, but they violated the Heavenly Dao rules and survived to this day. The ancestral tomb might possess some covering effect, shielding most of the Heavenly Dao rules, only then allowing them to remain intact.

Once they leave the ancestral tomb, the greater Heavenly Dao rules will descend, letting dust return to dust and soil return to soil. What shouldn't remain will dissipate with the wind!

"Damn, calculated everything, didn't expect them to be unable to go out either. What should we do now?" Er Gouzi said angrily.

Such a fierce bodyguard, it was also jealous. If they couldn't be taken out, then how could they do whatever they wanted?

"Actually, Old Man I think leaving them here is not a bad thing. After all, Li Xuanqi is also here, which is equivalent to a hostage in our hands. The Heavenly Palace Academy definitely wouldn't dare to mess with us!" Duan Jiude touched his chin and said.

Xu Que shook his head with a bitter smile: "You expect them to stay, but they have to be willing to stay!"

That's right, in unavoidable circumstances, leaving the two souls in the ancestral tomb is not a bad thing.

But the problem is, these two souls have already treated him as their child. Wherever he goes, these two souls follow. Just now when he stepped out of the ancestral tomb, these two souls immediately appeared to be dissipating, but they didn't care and still stood blankly by his side.

So if he wants them to stay, unless he stays too, or drives Xuan Yuan Wanrong's split soul out of the palace and lets her stay!

But obviously this is very unrealistic. On one hand, it is impossible for him to stay, and on the other hand, he doesn't have the ability to get Xuan Yuan Wanrong's split soul out. After all, that split soul has already fallen into a deep sleep and is waiting for the main body to arrive to awaken.

"Kid, why don't you stay? This God Venerable will replace you and go out to do whatever we want!" Er Gouzi looked at Xu Que and winked.

"Get lost!" Xu Que gave a concise response.

"Actually..." At this moment, Liu Jingning, who was thoughtful on the side, suddenly spoke: "It's not that there is no way to take them out safely!"
