Chen Li and Shen Qingyue looked at the various flying beasts before them, their expressions filled with excitement. The summoning technique of the hedgehog was truly extraordinary! Who would have thought that these usually proud flying beasts could be so docile? Any force or sect would be left speechless by this.
The closest to them was a massive eagle engulfed in roaring flames. Its wings spread wide, blocking out the sun, and its sharp eyes glinted with ferocity.
Wow, this beast looks impressive! What kind of creature is this? Shen Qingyue gazed at the majestic eagle, her face lighting up with excitement.
Chen Li chuckled softly, patting the eagle's sharp talons. "This is the Blazing Sky Hawk, one of the top flying beasts in the Void Rift. With it carrying us, we are guaranteed to leave here safely."
The Blazing Sky Hawk seemed to understand Chen Li's words, letting out a deafening screech. With a powerful flap of its enormous wings, it stirred up a whirlwind and soared into the sky, taking Chen Li and Shen Qingyue into the vast sea of clouds.
Outside the Void Rift, the atmosphere was tense. Elder Lengyue of the Holy Spirit Palace led numerous disciples, surrounding the Imperial Academy's team with disdain etched on their faces.
"Lin Xuan, I will ask you one more time: does your Imperial Academy possess the token of the Four Saints?" Elder Lengyue's tone was icy, his eyes glinting with cold light.
Lin Xuan's face turned pale with anger as he retorted, "Leng Yue, don't push your luck! Do you really want to make enemies of us at the Imperial Academy? Why should we obey your commands?"
"Lin Xuan, it's because my Holy Spirit Palace is currently the strongest!" Elder Lengyue snorted coldly. "I advise you to be sensible and obedient; otherwise—"
Before he could finish his sentence, a young man dressed in luxurious clothing stepped forward from behind him, a proud expression on his face. "Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude! Lin Xuan, considering your age, I don’t want to bully you. Let me give you some advice: wise men adapt to circumstances. Submit to our Holy Spirit Palace, and I might spare your life!"
The young man was Yue Shan. He had witnessed Chen Ming receiving the Ancient Sage's inheritance and returning to join their main force in the mountains. Remembering what Chen had said filled him with a sense of superiority.
With the resources of the Holy Spirit Palace backing them, they could surpass the other Three Major Forces and become the leading super sect! At that time, the now low-ranking Imperial Academy would become their servants! They were merely exercising their rights ahead of time!
After all, dealing with the beast horde outside wouldn't be easy; finding some expendable people as scapegoats would help minimize their own casualties!
"Yue Shan, don’t get too arrogant! Even if Chen Ming has obtained the Ancient Sage's inheritance, he is still just a frog at the bottom of a well! When Chen Li and Shen Qingyue return, you will know what it means that there are heavens beyond heavens!" Lin Xuan's face turned pale as he couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Chen Li? Shen Qingyue?" Yue Shan burst into laughter, as if he had just heard the greatest joke. "Lin Xuan, you can't possibly be hoping those two useless fools will make it out alive, can you? To be honest, they've been dead in the Land of Inheritance for a long time!"
Chen Shao had given them a chance to kneel and apologize, promising to bring them out, but unexpectedly, those two idiots refused to agree for the sake of their pride. With their meager cultivation, how could they possibly escape? By the time the spatial rift arrived, they would only have a dead end waiting for them!
"What did you say?!" Lin Xuan's face changed dramatically upon hearing this.
"Hmph, believe it or not. Either way, if you refuse to submit today, you will undoubtedly die!" Yue Shan said with a cold smile, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes.
"Impudent!" Lin Xuan shouted angrily, his aura surging as he gathered a gust of palm wind and swept it toward Yue Shan.
"Hmph! You are the one being impudent!" Leng Yue snorted coldly, waving her dust whisk as a sharp blast of energy surged toward Lin Xuan.
"Lin Xuan, be careful!" The disciples of the Imperial Academy exclaimed in alarm, but it was too late for them to intervene.
Lin Xuan's face turned pale; he had already been ambushed earlier, and Leng Yue's cultivation was slightly higher than his. Facing her now was even easier for her.
He clearly could not withstand this attack.
A flicker of grief and anger crossed Lin Xuan's eyes. "You bunch of traitors! You refuse to help the human race and only know how to fight over resources and status. Even if you have the upper hand for now, don't think I'll let the Imperial Academy submit!"
"I'll fight to the death if I have to; I will drag you down with me!"
At the back of the crowd from the Holy Spirit Palace, Chen Ming had just finished his training and wore a mocking smile on his small face. "Lin Xuan, there's no need to speak so grandly! Who doesn't know that those who enter the Imperial Academy for training are after status?"
"In this world, strength is paramount. If you cooperate with us and announce that Chen Li and Shen Qingyue have defected from the academy, placing a bounty on the Shen clan's extermination, we wouldn't even need to go through such trouble with you."
"After all, those who know how to read the situation are wise. Just look at how understanding the masters and seniors from Heavenly Dao Sect and Golden Sun Sect are."
Chen Ming's small face bore an expression that belied his age—cold and sinister.
Even though he was still young, his words caused the temperature around them to drop several degrees.
Lin Xuan's expression turned icy as he glared fiercely at Chen Ming. "Get lost! At such a young age, you're already so venomous; you'll surely face retribution one day!"
Chen Ming's face darkened suddenly; a fierce glint appeared in his eyes as he twirled a black dagger in his hand. A chilling sword aura surged toward Lin Xuan's heart.
"Unaware of danger? Then die!"
In the Holy Spirit Palace, several individuals struck simultaneously, and under the overwhelming pressure, Lin Xuan clearly felt powerless to resist. The other students from the Imperial Academy wanted to help, but they were also injured and could only watch helplessly as the scene unfolded. Some students, unable to bear the sight of their mentor dying in such a pitiful manner, shut their eyes.
At that critical moment, a deafening eagle's cry suddenly echoed from the sky. Following that, a massive shadow descended from above, blocking Lin Xuan's path.
Boom!
With a tremendous sound, the sharp sword energy violently struck the shadow, erupting in blinding light. The raging energy swept through the area, severing nearby trees in half.
As the light faded, everyone could finally see that the figure blocking Lin Xuan was an enormous eagle engulfed in blazing flames—the Blazing Sky Hawk. Standing proudly on its back were two familiar figures: Chen Li and Shen Qingyue, who had been absent for so long!
"You... you actually survived?!" Chen Ming's face displayed an expression of disbelief upon seeing Chen Li and Shen Qingyue.
Chen Li's gaze turned icy as it locked onto Chen Ming, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his mouth. "You Holy Spirit Palace certainly have some impressive bravado!"
