At the same moment, the Han family head hurried into the courtyard: "Where did Miss go? Have him come see me!"
A guard nodded slightly and then rushed to summon him.
Not long after, Han Xiaoxiao arrived at the Han family living room: "Dad, what's so urgent that you need me?"
"Have you heard? The Holy Land has made a move!" the Han family head said, "It's all for the Ancient Divine Body!"
"Of course I've heard!" Han Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Moreover, I've already knocked him out. He probably won't wake up for another three days."
"Why did you do that!" The Han family head frowned, "Wouldn't he blame you for this? After all, I heard that the Purple Light Holy Land is preparing to make a move against the Tongtian Academy, and this is no false rumor!"
"I don't care what the outside world says, nor do I care what he thinks!"
Han Xiaoxiao shook her head, "I just want him to live well. If he goes to the Tongtian Academy, it will be a dead end. That's why I had to do this!"
"Silly girl, some people's minds cannot be confined. If you do this, he might not appreciate it!" the Han family head said with a wry smile, "Moreover, if he stays in the Magic City, it will be a threat to the Han family. If this matter leaks out, the Han family might also be implicated!"
"Dad, can't you even tolerate him?" Han Xiaoxiao frowned, "If that's the case, I'll take him away from the Magic City right now, so you don't have to worry!"
"What are you saying? How could your father dislike his future son-in-law?" the Han family head said with a smile, "I'm just reminding you to be extremely careful. This matter must not be easily exposed, otherwise, it will cause endless trouble!"
"I know, Dad, don't worry. Very few people know about this!"
Han Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Within the Tongtian Academy, not many people know that he has come to the Magic City!"
"That would be for the best!"
The Han family head nodded slightly, and his gaze became serious. He knew very well that some things could be done, and some things could not. Lu Fan's identity was too sensitive now, and if discovered, it would cause endless trouble.
Three days passed quickly. During these three days, many disciples of the Tongtian Academy were transferred. Elder Ye Qiu of the Purple Light Holy Land knew about it but did not stop them.
The Dean, along with many elders, stood at the entrance of the academy, as if waiting for judgment. They knew very well that Elder Ye Qiu had allowed the disciples to transfer to avoid a larger entanglement.
Many of these disciples had powerful backgrounds. Although the Holy Land was overbearing, it did not want to offend various forces. Now that only a few elders remained, the Purple Light Holy Land would not let this matter rest.
"It seems you are ready to face death!"
Elder Ye Qiu narrowed his eyes and asked coldly. As an elder of the Purple Light Holy Land, his status and strength were beyond doubt.
"Elder Ye Qiu, we truly do not know where the Ancient Divine Body has gone." The Dean said with a wry smile, "If Elder Ye Qiu insists on taking action against us, we have nothing to say!"
"Hmph!"
Ye Qiu snorted, "Do you really think I'm joking with you?"
"If Elder Ye Qiu wants to make a move, we will have no complaints!" The Dean's expression was indifferent, carrying a will to die.
"Very good!"
Elder Ye Qiu smiled coldly, "Since that is the case, I will send you on your way and let you know the consequences of offending the Holy Land!"
A surge of spiritual power erupted from Elder Ye Qiu's hand, appearing turbulent. Even if all the elders of the academy attacked together, they would not be able to withstand a single palm strike from him.
Within the Tongtian Academy, the elders slowly closed their eyes. Since they had made their decision, they would not go back on it, and they had no way out.
"The Purple Light Holy Land is truly overbearing, making such a grand display to obtain the Ancient Divine Body!"
A cold voice rang out. From the distant sky, a young man descended, accompanied by dozens of old men. These old men were powerful and exuded a terrifying aura.
At the same time, various surrounding forces watched, wondering what was happening. Someone dared to speak to the Purple Light Holy Land like this. In the entire Eastern Region, the Holy Land held immense authority, and no one dared to act presumptuously.
"So it's the young master of the Desolate Ancient Tao Family?"
Elder Ye Qiu was slightly surprised and quickly cupped his fists, "May I ask why Young Master Tao is here?"
"I will protect the Tongtian Academy!"
Young Master Tao said coldly, "Anyone who dares to make a move against the Tongtian Academy today will be an enemy of my Tao Family!"
The Dean of Tongtian trembled, his heart filled with shock. Although the Tongtian Academy was famous, it had no connection with the Desolate Ancient Tao Family. There was no reason for the Tao Family to offend the Purple Light Holy Land for the Tongtian Academy.
"Young Master Tao, why is this?" Elder Ye Qiu frowned, "I am here at the command of the Holy Lord to visit the Tongtian Academy!"
"The Ancient Divine Body you are looking for is my sworn brother. Anyone who dares to plot against him will be an enemy of my Tao Family!"
Tao Maocheng said coldly, "Even the Purple Light Holy Land is no exception."
The people present began to discuss, some in disbelief. To be sworn brothers with the Desolate Ancient Tao Family, what kind of great fortune was this? They wondered if the Ancient Divine Body had some ancestral blessing.
"In that case, the Holy Land cannot touch this Divine Body?" Elder Ye Qiu frowned.
"No one who my Tao Family protects dares to touch them."
Young Master Tao said coldly, his expression indifferent, as if the Tao Family was an insurmountable existence in the entire Eastern Region.
"Young Master Tao's dominance is truly beyond my reach!" Elder Ye Qiu smiled, "But Young Master Tao, don't forget that in the entire Eastern Region, your Tao Family is not the only Ancient Family. The Purple Light Holy Land also does not fear the Tao Family!"
"If that's the case, why say more!" Young Master Tao sneered, "Why don't we just fight? What do you say?"
Elder Ye Qiu's face instantly turned ashen. Neither the Purple Light Holy Land nor the Tao Family would easily engage in war. Once such ancient sects went to war, it would lead to widespread devastation. How could he not know this?
"Young Master Tao is still young, and I naturally will not hold it against you!" Elder Ye Qiu smiled, "Since the Ancient Divine Body is not in the Tongtian Academy, I have no need to trouble them. This matter ends here. However, the Ancient Divine Body, my Purple Light Holy Land is determined to obtain!"
"Hmph, then we'll see if you have the ability!"
Young Master Tao snorted but said no more. As Elder Ye Qiu said, the strength of the Purple Light Holy Land was not inferior to the Tao Family. If a war were to break out, it would likely not be a good thing. However, being able to protect the Tongtian Academy today was as he wished. As for other matters, it would depend on fate.
