Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 35 Let's leave a few days later

"Sigh, everyone else is eager to stay at the academy as long as possible, but you little freak want to take such a long leave. It's really a headache. I'll have to keep busy with your leave issue for a while after we get back to the academy."

Instructor Ruolin reached out and gently touched Xiao Jue's brow with her slender, white fingers. "Alright, that concludes today's recruitment. We will continue recruiting in the city for the remaining seven days."

"Mentor, why don't you stay at our Xiao family's place while we're in Wutan City?" Seeing Mentor Ruolin about to turn and leave, Xiao Yu hurriedly ran up, grabbed her arm, and said with a sweet smile.

"To the Xiao family?"

Slightly taken aback, Instructor Ruolin frowned slightly. She hesitated, then said, "Canaan Academy has a designated reception area in Wutan City, and wouldn't going to the Xiao family be a bit of a disturbance?"

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "It's alright. It's an honor for our Xiao family to have a tutor from Canaan Academy. I think the whole Xiao family would be very happy to know that Tutor Ruolin is willing to visit us."

As a renowned academy on the Dou Qi Continent, Canaan Academy wields immense influence in the Jia Ma Empire. In terms of strength, even the Yunlan Sect pales in comparison.

As a superior and powerful force, Canaan Academy will undoubtedly view these local powers in Utan City with a condescending attitude.

Under this mindset, the recruitment teams over the years have rarely interacted with the forces in Wutan City, let alone accepted any invitation from any force to directly reside in local families.

Moreover, under these circumstances, the various forces in the city are also very self-aware. They know the gap between the two sides. Do the weak really expect the strong to be polite and courteous to them?

With this mindset in mind, the various factions in Wutan City did not act rashly and try to curry favor with the Canaan Academy's admissions team. Therefore, they all maintained a respectful distance from the team, neither daring to provoke them nor shamelessly trying to establish a relationship, lest they end up being ridiculed.

Having lived in Wutan City for over ten years, Xiao Jue was naturally very clear about the extraordinary power of Canaan Academy's admissions team. If he could get Instructor Ruolin to stay at the Xiao family, he would be very happy.

Then the Xiao family's influence in Wutan City will be completely solidified, making them the overlords of Wutan City.

Having just wiped out two major families, with the arrival of people from Canaan Academy and the support of the Mittel Auction House, the entire city of Wutan now belongs to the Xiao family.

Given Ruolin's special status, let alone staying at the Xiao family, if she were to show even a little goodwill to any minor power, that unknown power would likely experience a bustling atmosphere the very next day.

Although this may sound exaggerated, Instructor Ruolin holds the key to whether or not a child can enter Canaan Academy. For those who are eager to send their children there, they will not easily give up any opportunity.

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "How about I refine another Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill for you if Instructor Ruolin stays for a few days? Those three Grade 5 pills were left to me by my teacher, so let me refine one for you too."

Upon hearing Xiao Jue speak, Instructor Ruolin pursed her rosy lips. With her experience, she naturally knew Xiao Jue's identity and the influence she wielded in Wutan City. Normally, the recruiting instructors would not pay attention to these forces in the city.

However, now that Xiao Jue had spoken up, Instructor Ruolin couldn't refuse. She wouldn't easily ignore the words of this student who could be considered the most promising student in Canaan Academy in the last hundred years.

Moreover, he was a fourth-grade alchemist, with the most outstanding alchemist in Zhongzhou as her teacher. Xiao Jue was even more eager to give her pills, so Ruolin didn't want to refuse.

Otherwise, if this little guy gets angry and runs away, she will find it difficult to find such an outstanding student again.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, Instructor Ruolin nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Alright, then I'll trouble the Xiao family for a few days."

Upon seeing Instructor Ruolin nod in agreement, Xiao Yu immediately smiled and playfully hugged her soft, slender waist.

"Rob, you and Gora go back to the reception area first. Come back here again tomorrow. Remember, don't cause me any trouble!"

With a doting pat on Xiao Yu's head, Instructor Ruolin turned to Luo Bu and his group at the tent and gave them instructions.

"Um."

With a dry face, Rob nodded and watched the group of women laughing and playing as they walked away into the distance. He shook his head helplessly. Xiao Yu hadn't invited them, so they naturally had no face to force themselves to follow.

So, without the company of beautiful women, the group of boys could only dejectedly pack their things and then walk listlessly toward the other side of the square.

Upon hearing the news that the Canaan Academy's admissions advisors had arrived at the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan and the three elders, who were discussing matters in the council hall, were immediately stunned.

A moment later, they all stood up with delighted expressions, exchanged glances, and then hurriedly left the hall, rushing to the family gate. With smiles on their faces, they led the group of pretty women at the gate into the family compound.

With Xiao Yu's introduction, the two sides finally got to know each other. After learning the purpose of Ruolin and the others' visit, Xiao Zhan readily agreed and immediately sent people to prepare an empty room in the backyard. This decisive action won the favor of Ruolin and the others.

The sudden appearance of a group of beautiful and talented students from Canaan Academy in the clan made the atmosphere much more lively. Many young clansmen crowded around, their eyes constantly sweeping over the group of pretty girls, and casting envious and jealous glances at Xiao Jue, who was surrounded by the girls and kept asking them questions.

As night fell, the Xiao family, as the hosts, naturally offered the highest level of hospitality, and after dinner, the conversation between the two sides was quite warm.

The latest novel is first published here!

Xiao Yan whispered in Xiao Jue's ear, "Should we set off now?"

"Wait two more days."

Xiao Jue was not in a hurry to leave. With so many fruits yet to be picked, how could he bear to leave?

Xiao Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes, but he couldn't go against Xiao Jue's wishes, so he decided to stay at the Xiao family and cultivate for a few more days.

After dinner, Xiao Jue returned home, followed by Xiao Mei. The young girl was curious about the relationship between Xiao Jue and Xiao Yu, but chose to accept it.

After penetrating Xiao Mei and leaving her unconscious in her room, Xiao Jue went to find Xiao Yu again that night.

"Aren't you being incredibly bold?"

Upon hearing Xiao Jue's request, Xiao Yu glanced at Xue Ni, who was holding her as she rested, and couldn't help but glare at Xiao Jue. She whispered, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Don't even think about it." Xiao Jue smiled contemptuously. He had called Xiao Yu an ugly monster at Canaan Academy, so how could he let him off the hook?
