"You are filled with resentment, how can you enter the Buddhist sect!" The South Sea Divine Nun shook her head, "Your worldly ties are not yet severed, you cannot enter my sect."
"I beg senior to fulfill my wish!"
Bi Yao cupped his fists again, and simultaneously knelt down. He knew very well that the South Sea Divine Nun before him possessed boundless divine abilities. If he could become her disciple, his strength would surely advance by leaps and bounds.
This way, he would be able to avenge himself.
The South Sea Divine Nun shook her head and turned to leave. She understood Bi Yao's current state of mind quite well.
"If senior does not agree, why save me!"
Bi Yao revealed a wry smile, and at the same time took out his long sword and placed it at his neck, "It would be better to let me die!"
With his current strength, he was utterly incapable of avenging the North Sea Academy. Moreover, the Eight Prince's Mansion was part of the White Dragon Dynasty's royal family, making it even more difficult.
"Why must you do this!"
The South Sea Divine Nun turned back, "Your heart is filled with resentment. Even if I teach you supreme heart techniques, you will only kill."
"I do not seek senior to take me as a disciple, only to allow me to accompany you. Now that I have offended the Eight Prince's Mansion, even if I escape the academy, the Eight Prince's Mansion will never let it go," Bi Yao said with a serious expression.
"Since that is the case, you shall follow me from now on and cultivate your mind and character," the South Sea Divine Nun nodded slightly.
Bi Yao was overjoyed and quickly expressed his gratitude.
Meanwhile, within the North Sea Academy, fires raged, and corpses littered the ground. The flames in the North Sea Academy grew more intense, and the Shadow Guards and others had all left.
Numerous forces within the entire Cloud Province watched the tragedy of the North Sea Academy with extreme terror.
A prosperous academy, annihilated for offending the Eight Prince's Mansion, with even the dean meeting an untimely end, was no small matter.
In Chu City, Lu Fan and Long Yi were in the midst of their studies when Han Feng burst in, "This is bad! I just received news that the North Sea Academy has been destroyed, and even the dean could not escape this calamity!"
Lu Fan's eyes snapped open, "Was it the Eight Prince's Mansion?"
"That's right."
Han Feng nodded, his eyes filled with anger. He couldn't fathom how the Eight Prince's Mansion could be so overbearing, directly attacking the North Sea Academy with such mercilessness.
"They are simply beasts!"
Lu Fan's expression was cold. If he had known the Eight Prince's Mansion was so ruthless, he would never have implicated the North Sea Academy. Now that it had come to this, there was nothing he could do.
"Eight Prince's Mansion!"
Long Yi's expression was cold, carrying a hint of rage. The North Sea Academy was their sect. Now that the entire sect had been annihilated, how could they bear it?
"I want to go and see!"
Lu Fan stood up, "Perhaps there are still survivors within the North Sea Academy."
"You can't go!" Han Feng said repeatedly, "The Eight Prince's Mansion dispatched the Shadow Guards, and their strength is immense. If you go, you'll be walking into a trap."
Lu Fan gritted his teeth, filled with dissatisfaction, but there was nothing he could do. Their strength was still too weak, and compared to the Eight Prince's Mansion, it was insignificant.
"This hatred is irreconcilable. One day, I will make them pay the price!"
Lu Fan's expression was cold, filled with anger.
How could he tolerate the fact that so many disciples of the North Sea Academy had met their untimely deaths?
"I think the White Dragon Dynasty is no longer a place to linger,"
Han Feng said, "Why don't you two leave the White Dragon Dynasty? This way, you won't be implicated. The Eight Prince's Mansion will never give up."
"It's too early to leave now!"
Lu Fan shook his head, "I need to go out!"
"Where are you going!"
Long Yi quickly caught up, "The Eight Prince's Mansion has already dispatched the Shadow Guards. If you make any move, it will be troublesome, as they are all peak experts."
"Don't worry, I have my own plans for this matter!"
Lu Fan waved his hand. The Eight Prince's Mansion's actions would surely make him pay the price, and he would not let it go easily.
"Since you're leaving, you two should go together!" Han Feng said, "I won't stay. I still have many matters at home."
Lu Fan was slightly stunned, then shook his head, "Han family matters are not yet resolved, I cannot leave!"
"Han family matters are not something you can handle either!" Han Feng shook his head, "The reason I'm letting you leave is because I don't want you to get involved in this. Don't be impulsive."
"As fellow disciples, how can we stand by and watch the Han family be destroyed?" Lu Fan said with a serious expression.
As they were talking, a group of uninvited guests suddenly arrived in Han City, and in an instant, sounds of fighting erupted within the city.
Many experts from the Han family gathered. They knew very well that it must be people from the Lin family who had such imposing auras.
"Han family members, follow me!"
The Han family head donned his armor, radiating an imposing spirit. Their Han family had reached a desperate situation, and now that their enemy was approaching, he would not compromise.
Not long after, outside the Han family courtyard, the Han family head confronted the members of the Lin family.
"The Lin family has already reached the city gates. Does the Han family head truly intend to fight to the death?" Lin Ziying said coldly, "It's hardly worth it for the Taiyuan Spirit Mine!"
"It's not just the spirit mine, but also the dignity of my Han family!"
The Han family head said coldly, "I hope the Lin family can understand."
"Since that is the case, there is nothing more to say!"
An elder of the Han family said coldly, "The family head will arrive soon. By then, the entire Han City will cease to exist!"
The Han family head's expression was indifferent. He paid no heed to the threat. Since he had decided to resist the Lin family, he had never considered a safe retreat.
Not long after, another group of people broke into Han City. The leader was the Lin family head, whose aura was extremely terrifying, exuding an imposing presence even without anger.
"A mere Han family dares to challenge my Lin family!"
The Lin family head's expression was cold as he looked at the Han family members, his words leaving no room for ambiguity. The Lin family was a formidable power, and other families could not possibly contend with it.
"Even if it means fighting to the death, the Han family will not compromise."
The Han family head said coldly, "The Lin family is too overbearing. A battle is likely unavoidable today."
"The Han family truly has great courage!"
The Lin family head said coldly, "There are not many people within the White Dragon Dynasty who dare to be enemies with the Lin family!"
"Aren't the Lin family head's words laughable!"
Han Feng said directly, "Does the Lin family's actions mean that my Han family should just sit and wait for death?"
"Whatever my Lin family desires, it obtains!"
Lin Ziying said coldly, "Now that we are at your gates, if the Han family is willing to hand over the Taiyuan Spirit Mine, the Lin family will withdraw immediately. Otherwise, the Han family will be annihilated!"
"The Han family will not accept such threats!"
Han Feng stepped forward, "If you wish to fight, the Han family will not shy away from battle!"
Lin Ziying frowned. He hadn't expected Han Feng to be so domineering, not even putting the Lin family in his eyes.
The Lin family head also frowned. He knew that the Lin family's actions were not right, but now they were in a difficult position.
