Chapter 164 The Special Dungeon

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

Regarding Di Wen’s death, Qiao Yu’s explanation to the academy was that Di Wen had perished together with the king-tier necromancer, O'Mo, in order to save them.

Anyway, no one else had seen him and Di Wen fight, so he could say whatever he wanted, right?

Since both O'Mo and Di Wen had disappeared without a trace, no one at the Pantheon Academy suspected Qiao Yu was the culprit.

After all, how many people could believe that a high-tier could kill a king-tier?

Would you believe me if I told you that the big yellow dog at the entrance of the village could take on a Siberian tiger one-on-one?

Although Di Wen's matter had been resolved, Qiao Yu had been having a headache for the past two days.

Ever since returning from Sunset Town, An Liya had been coming to find him all the time, for no reason at all.

She had all sorts of bizarre reasons, from claiming that she didn't understand what Dean Gan Fofu was teaching today and needed Qiao Yu to explain it to her again, to complaining that the sun was too strong at the Pantheon Academy today.

It was driving Qiao Yu crazy. And this was all suffering for Ke Dijie, who was following An Liya every day and had seen it all, almost grinding his molars to dust.

"My goddess, please stop following me! Do you have something you want to ask?"

Qiao Yu's face darkened. He had originally wanted to keep a low profile when he came to the Western Alliance.

But now, with a goddess of the Western Alliance following him around, he was attracting attention wherever he went. How was he supposed to keep a low profile like this?

"I... I'm sorry..."

An Liya blushed slightly at Qiao Yu's words.

She didn't know why she wanted to follow Qiao Yu, but she just felt that being with him made her feel especially happy.

Just seeing Qiao Yu made her happy, and An Liya didn't know what was wrong with her.

"No! I'm the one who should be sorry, I'm begging you, please stop following me!"

Qiao Yu was about to kowtow to An Liya. If he dared to get too close to An Liya, the goddess, he estimated that a large group of people would come to investigate him immediately.

"No, this time I really do have something..."

An Liya took a deep breath, her towering chest trembling slightly.

"Do you know that there's a special dungeon in the championship rewards for the Battle Competition?"

"No."

Qiao Yu said without changing his expression, but his heart was in turmoil.

Because the token to enter that special dungeon was currently in his hands!

An Liya looked around, then said mysteriously.

"The Great Elder joined forces with experts to explore that dungeon and even opened up a passage!"

"It's said that there are many rare and exotic beasts in that special dungeon, and killing each one can greatly improve your strength!"

"The Great Elder said that the dungeon is forbidden to experts above the high-tier, and the resources inside are limited, so only a small number of people will be allowed to enter. I helped you get a spot, don't reveal it to others!"

As soon as An Liya finished speaking, Qiao Yu shouted "fuck" in his heart.

If he had known, he would have cleared that dungeon before coming to the Western Alliance. He, the one with the token, actually had to sneak in like a stowaway?

How could the elders on the God Mountain be even more cunning than him? They had risked their lives to win the Battle Competition, but now they wanted to secretly reap the rewards of victory!

"Then I really have to thank you!"

Qiao Yu said through gritted teeth, his heart filled with ten thousand alpacas stampeding past.

"No... no need to thank me, then prepare yourself! The passage will stabilize tomorrow, and you can enter then."

An Liya seemed to remember something and quickly reminded him.

"That's right! You have to be careful then, those people from the outside will probably enter that special dungeon too!"

Qiao Yu raised an eyebrow, Xing Cang and Qu Ji, those people?

That was indeed a bit of a challenge. Although those people from outside Kaiji Star were of similar levels to them, their combat power was not comparable.

"Alright, thank you, is there anything else? If not, I'll slip away first!" Qiao Yu just wanted to get away from An Liya at this moment.

"No... nothing else." An Liya was a little aggrieved, but she couldn't think of any other reasons for the time being.

"Alright! Bye-bye!"

After Qiao Yu finished speaking, he disappeared like he was avoiding a plague, making An Liya grit her teeth in anger.

After returning to the dormitory, Qiao Yu tried to contact Yi Liushui again, but Yi Liushui still didn't respond.

"Big brother... you wouldn't really be dead, would you..."

Qiao Yu was a little worried. Almost half a month had passed, and there was still no news from Yi Liushui.

He shook his head helplessly. Although he didn't think this guy would die so easily, if Yi Liushui really did kick the bucket, he could only burn more paper money for him during the New Year and holidays in the future.

Early the next morning, as An Liya had said, Dean Gan Fofu called Qiao Yu, An Liya, and three others out separately, and then talked about the special dungeon.

Of the three people, one was Ke Dijie, whom Qiao Yu knew, and the other two were top members of the genius class.

"Alright! The special dungeon is full of dangers and opportunities. In addition to obtaining your own opportunities, the four of you must also protect An Liya. I don't need to say more about the importance of the goddess to our Western Alliance, right?"

After Dean Gan Fofu finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Yu with a resentful gaze, leaving Qiao Yu completely confused.

How would Qiao Yu know that the Pantheon Academy had originally wanted to arrange for Ke Dijie and the other three Shield Warriors to guard An Liya, just like in the Battle Competition?

But An Liya insisted on giving him a spot, which forced Gan Fofu to temporarily change the lineup.

After Gan Fofu finished speaking, he took out his staff and waved it gently, and a huge ship made of flames soared into the sky.

The ship carried Qiao Yu and the other five towards the distance.

Qiao Yu was a little puzzled. This special dungeon was clearly inside the Reverse World, so why was Gan Fofu taking them to fly in the real world?

After looking around and finding that no one else had this question, Qiao Yu wisely chose to shut up.

There must be something in here that he, a person from the Great Xia Ancient Country, didn't know about.

About an hour later, the flame giant ship traveled to a huge city built of gray-white bricks and stones.

The city had a clear sense of history, and was obviously a product of the Middle Ages.

Seeing the flame giant ship speeding past, many people in the city raised their heads.

"What a grand display, that's Dean Gan Fofu of the Pantheon Academy, right?"

"Nonsense! Apart from that muscle-bound old man, who else would dare to fly over the Holy City? Last time, a king-tier flew over the Holy City and had his legs broken!"

The person next to him quickly covered that person's mouth.

"Do you want to die? How dare you call him a muscle-bound old man? If you want to die, don't implicate me!"

Fortunately, Gan Fofu didn't pay any attention to the people in the city at all, and flew directly to a magnificent cathedral in the center of the city.

The surroundings were heavily guarded, with dozens of gold-armored Divine Guards surrounding the cathedral. Each of them was at least at the king-tier. This was the Divine Emperor's Hall, where the Divine Emperor of the Western Alliance resided!

As long as the God Mountain didn't appear, then the Divine Emperor was the most powerful person in the entire Western Alliance. Even the renowned Seven Divine Guards were just seven guards beside the Divine Emperor.

After flying all the way to the entrance of the Divine Emperor's Hall, Gan Fofu put away the flame giant ship and landed in front of the Divine Emperor's Hall.

"Gan Fofu, your pomp is getting bigger and bigger. Next time, are you going to fly directly to the top of the Divine Emperor's Hall before landing?"

As soon as he landed, an unhappy voice came from the entrance of the Divine Emperor's Hall.

Qiao Yu looked over and saw a figure in golden armor leaning against a stone pillar at the entrance of the Divine Emperor's Hall. His body was burning with dark red flames, like a ghost.

Moreover, the terrifying aura emanating from this person was clearly that of a saint-tier!

The terrifying pressure enveloped everyone except An Liya, making it difficult for Qiao Yu and the others to breathe.

At this time, Gan Fofu waved his hand gently, and the pressure disappeared without a trace. He waved his hand.

"Don't be afraid, this is the Second Divine Guard, Gabriel. He's just trying to scare you a little, he can't beat me in a real fight."
