Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 305: Senior Xiao, a man of high moral character

Xiao Yan, who had fled from the girl's residence in a panic, hurried back towards his own building, concealing his breath in fear.

In fact, ever since he got the scarlet crystal card given by Hun Ruoruo, the total amount of fire energy in Xiao Yan's body has been approaching the two thousand mark, and the fire energy deducted for not returning home that night was only ten days, so there was no need to worry about it at all.

But as a long-standing rule in the inner courtyard, this commandment was naturally well considered.

Normally, if he stayed overnight in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower or some special training places, the elders would not be concerned. However, if he ran to a girl's residence and came out in the middle of the night, it was obviously a different matter.

In addition to deducting ten days of fire energy, students who do not return home overnight will be posted next to the list of students who receive fire energy tasks, for all those who come to receive tasks to "look up" to. The purpose is to prevent those who ignore school rules because of abundant fire energy.

And Xiao Yan obviously didn't have that thick skin.

"This Canaan Academy's inner courtyard is truly a place made up of people selected from the outer courtyards. How many men and women must have accidentally had sex with each other to force the academy to establish such a school rule?"

After complaining helplessly, in order to prevent himself from being listed on the 'Campus Popularity List' the next day after joining the inner courtyard, Xiao Yan quickly crossed several alleys and sneaked into the attic.

As Xiao Yan entered the attic, a very subtle sound suddenly came from the treetops in the distance, and then disappeared.

"Ok?"

Xiao Yan's body suddenly paused, and he subconsciously looked back. After a while, he scratched his head in confusion and looked away.

Previously, due to the cautious patrol of the elders, Xiao Yan had secretly turned up the soul detection to the maximum. Any small movement would be detected by the soul state close to the middle stage of the mortal realm.

There shouldn't be anyone in this inner courtyard who needs to follow me secretly, right?
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan felt a little relieved and his expression relaxed. He walked to the end of the corner and was about to step into his room.

However, at this moment, his eyes inadvertently swept across two brooms placed strangely in the storage area.

I saw two upside-down brooms inserted in the wooden barrel in a weird posture, and between the gaps of the brooms, a pair of big, cunning eyes were blinking!

"."

Looking at the petite figure hiding behind the wooden barrel, Xiao Yan's mouth twitched wildly. He couldn't help but knock on the door frame with his fingers and coughed lightly:
"Ahem! You've revealed your true colors, little girl."

"?!"

Hearing this, the wooden barrel trembled suddenly. After a long silence, the petite girl, who looked a little dusty, finally came out from the back reluctantly and said with her head down:

"Brother Xiao Yan."

Seeing this, Xiao Yan immediately raised his head and sighed, deciding to take back his previous words -

There really is a stalker in this inner courtyard!
The next day, early morning.

Xiao Yan got up very early, but before he had much time to wash up, he was called by Hu Jia and Wu Hao who came in a hurry to deal with a dispute between the new and old students.

As the 'demon' personally acknowledged by Great Elder Su Qian, it can be said that Xiao Yan's reputation has not only reached its peak among the freshmen, but even many senior students, after being informed by the members of the Black and White Guansha Team, have developed a great fear of him.

Where there is fear, there will naturally be temptation.

So, the few troublemakers who were turned away yesterday because Xiao Yan went to recuperate, today used the excuse of collecting 'freshman tribute' to wantonly oppress the freshmen whose fire energy had not been plundered.

However, even with the presence of several Dou Lings, Xiao Yan, whose injuries had been healed, did not take them seriously at all. He easily suppressed them and redistributed the collected fire energy to the new students, which surprised everyone and made them feel convinced.

"Senior Xiao Yan, those senior students are not only much stronger than us, but the ones who collect the tribute are also affiliated with various factions within the Inner Court. We freshmen are now a disorganized group, completely unable to form any resistance."

Xue Beng, who had fought with Xiao Yan before, stood up with wounds all over his body and said through gritted teeth:

"We know we can't always rely on Senior Xiao Yan for help, so we're asking. Does Senior Xiao Yan have any plans to form a faction?"

In Canaan Academy, strength was also the key factor in determining the order of success. However, Xiao Yan's achievements had already caused Xue Beng to change his address from 'junior' to 'senior'. Even many people who were much older than Xiao Yan did the same.

"Building a force?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then said with a hint of interest: "Apart from you, do the other freshmen also think the same way?"

"Some of the other freshmen are still recovering in their respective attics and haven't been charged tribute yet, but I think everyone should share this view."

Xue Beng stared at Xiao Yan intently, then smiled wryly and said, "Those old students have now learned of Senior Xiao Yan's nickname 'Devil', and naturally they think we are also under your protection. They all want to bully us to provoke you."

"Those charging fees keep coming, batch after batch, clearly intent on completely exploiting us. However, I'm not saying this to blame you. I sincerely hope you can lead us in resistance like you did during the Fire Energy Hunting Competition."

"If you're willing, we'd rather pay the so-called tribute to you than to those bastards!"

As expected, Xue Beng's passionate words attracted many freshmen on the scene to respond in unison. It was obvious that they still remembered the scene where Xiao Yan led them to fight through the old students' obstruction.

Looking at the wounded yet hopeful eyes of the many freshmen, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment before smiling faintly, "Haha, just don't pay me the tribute. I'm not on the same page as those old students."

Having said this, seeing everyone instantly tense up, Xiao Yan immediately waved his hands at them and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry. Now that I know the complex interplay of forces within the Inner Court, it's clearly unrealistic for me to fight them all alone. Forming a faction is imperative."

"In that case, thank you very much, Senior Xiao Yan. If you have any instructions in the future, we, the freshmen, will obey you!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Beng and the many freshmen behind him were immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to Xiao Yan to express their loyalty.

"Senior Xiao Yan has established a power, so we freshmen finally have someone to lean on, haha!"

"With Senior Xiao Yan's reputation, I think he must have a more resounding name than the so-called 'Qingshan' and 'Bai Gang'."

"Senior Xiao Yan is a man with the title of Demon Lord. Why not call the faction he founded 'Xie Men'?"

"."

"These guys."

Hearing everyone's rather nonsensical remarks, Xiao Yan could not help but shrug his shoulders helplessly and let them discuss freely.

He didn't have many ideas about the name of the sect. It was a good thing to be able to pool ideas, but he was not very impressed with the naming skills of these guys.

After thinking about it, Xiao Yan simply suppressed the thought in his mind for the time being, and instead pulled Xue Beng beside him over, handed him a bottle of healing pills, and said:
"I remember your name is Xue Beng, right? With your cultivation level not even reaching that of a Grand Fighter, why would you fight to the death with that group of people?"

According to Xiao Yan's previous observations, Xue Beng suffered the most serious injuries and was also the most aggressive. Such people are often rare when it comes to building a force.

Loyalty is sometimes more valued than talent.

Like Bai Shan, who was always playing fence-sitter, even though he had good talent, no force was willing to accept him. He could only rely on his eldest brother's reputation to join the Bai Gang.

"Senior Xiao Yan once taught me a few spear techniques. Although they were just casual suggestions, they helped me to break through the bottleneck of being a Grand Fighter Master. Naturally, I can't be that heartless person."

Xue Beng grabbed his spear, paused, and said seriously, "The most important thing is, some people say you are not worthy of my sister-in-law!"

"Sister-in-law?!"

Xiao Yan's face froze, and then he widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Who are you talking about, sister-in-law?"

"Of course it's Fairy Ruoruo. Senior Xiao Yan may not know that Fairy Ruoruo's appearance was witnessed by the inner courtyard students yesterday, and the news has spread throughout the inner courtyard."

At this point, Xue Beng shook his gun with a bit of complacency and said excitedly:
"Previously, there was a group of people who wanted to see her face, but we fought them off with all our might."

Looking at Xue Beng's expression that seemed to be asking for credit, Xiao Yan was speechless for a moment. It was not until the other party looked at him with some confusion that he finally cleared his throat and sighed:

"Although Ruoruo and I have a close relationship, you should not spread such irrelevant things. It will damage her reputation."

"But."

Seeing Xiao Yan's extremely serious expression, Xue Beng swallowed back what he was going to say and could only nod vigorously.
"I understand. Senior Xiao Yan is a man of high moral character. I, Xue Beng, admire him."

"Well, let's go."

Xiao Yan patted his back with satisfaction and said with a smile.

Xue Beng responded subconsciously and took a step forward, only to find that his pocket seemed to be a little bulging. He took it out and saw two bottles of pills lying inside, emitting a faint medicinal fragrance.

"this?!"

Xue Beng opened his mouth wide and subconsciously looked back.

After seeing the uncontrollable curve of Xiao Yan's mouth, his eyelids twitched, and he immediately turned his head away, pretending to be unaware and quickly ran back to the freshman team.

It seems that Senior Xiao Yan is not a straightforward person.
On the top of the pavilion, Xun'er looked at Xiao Yan, who was arm in arm with Xue Beng and seemed to be whispering, with her long hair flying, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After being stunned for a moment, she suddenly sighed and said to herself, "Mr. Ling."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow in the room suddenly became distorted, and then turned into the figure of a man half-kneeling on the ground.

"Miss."
