Chapter 63: Plotting to Obtain the Immortal Herb (Please continue reading)

"Brother, could you think of a way to break the contract with Luo from the Spirit Hall? And then arrange for him to attend the Heaven Dou Royal Academy..."

Xue Ke lowered her head slightly, looking at Xue Qinghe timidly, and spoke in a very soft voice, as if afraid that her unreasonable request would anger Xue Qinghe.

She knew perfectly well that for Xue Qinghe, who was the Crown Prince, arranging for Luo to study at the Tiandou Royal Academy was a trivial matter that required no effort at all.

With just a word from Xue Qinghe to the three academic committee members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Luo could easily be granted the status of a special admission student and sent to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

However, getting Xue Qinghe to help the Spirit Hall to terminate the "indenture" contract signed with Luo was not an easy task.

Even with Xue Qinghe's immense political influence in the Heaven Dou Empire, it would be difficult for him to demand that the Spirit Hall do things according to his wishes.

However, in order to bring Luo to her side and be with him "forever", Xue Ke was going all out today and mustered up the courage to make such a request to Xue Qinghe.

After all, in Xue Ke's eyes, Xue Qinghe was the crown prince of the Tian Dou Empire. He not only held a high position and great power, but also usually tried his best to satisfy many of her unreasonable demands.

Presumably, her beloved elder brother Xue Qinghe will grant her request today as usual.

When Qian Renxue heard Xue Ke's request, she wanted to refuse immediately. After all, she was the future heir of the Spirit Hall and would not deliberately do something that would undermine her own successor.

But upon seeing Xue Ke's pitiful eyes, Qian Renxue suddenly felt a pang of tenderness, and thought to herself:

"He's just a commoner genius with only level seven innate soul power. His greatest achievement in the future will be at most becoming a Soul Douluo. Even if we break the contract with him, it won't be a big loss for our Spirit Hall."

"Sigh, well, Ke'er hasn't asked me for help much lately, so I'll grant her request. I'll talk to Uncle Porcupine later and have him order the Spirit Hall somewhere to terminate the contract with that boy."

After a moment's thought, Qian Renxue nodded and agreed, "Alright, I'll find a way to resolve these two matters."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ke immediately jumped up and excitedly hugged Qian Renxue's neck.

However, Qian Renxue couldn't help but feel curious about Luo, wondering what kind of magic he possessed that had captivated Xue Ke so completely.

…………

Three days later, on Sunday, around 10 a.m.

When Luo Gang arrived at his clinic, he saw Su Yuntao standing at the entrance, clearly having been waiting there for some time.

Upon seeing Su Yuntao for the first time, Luo quickly guessed why he had come without incident.

However, he still pretended to know nothing and opened the door to invite Su Yuntao in.

Luo poured Su Yuntao a cup of tea and asked, "Brother Su, did you come here because you've fallen ill again?"

Su Yuntao didn't drink the tea immediately; he just held the teacup in his hand, looking preoccupied.

Upon hearing Luo's question, he hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, took out a piece of parchment from his pocket, and placed it in front of Luo.

"This is the contract you signed with the Spirit Hall before. Now that the contract has been cancelled, you can keep this parchment. You can keep it if you want, or you can destroy it if you don't."

Seeing this, Luo didn't say anything more, but simply took the parchment, opened it, and looked it over from top to bottom.

Su Yuntao wanted to say something, but before he could finish, he swallowed his words and got up to say goodbye to Luo.

After sending Su Yuntao away, Luo reached out and picked up the parchment, then took out his own contract parchment from his soul tool ring.

Suddenly, a raging fire burst into flames behind Luo, and the flames spread up his arm, burning the parchment in his hand to ashes.

He understood, of course, that it was Xue Ke who pleaded with Qian Renxue to break the contract between him and the Spirit Hall.

Otherwise, even if Emperor Xueye himself intervened, it would be difficult to make the Spirit Hall submit to his orders.

The reason Luo made a promise with Xue Ke that if Xue Ke could help him go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he would keep his promise and go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. The main reason was actually to obtain the immortal herb.

After all, Dugu Yan is studying at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. If Luo also goes to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he will have a chance to find out Dugu Bo's whereabouts.

In that case, as long as Luo can determine the date when Dugu Bo leaves the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, and then find the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye in Sunset Forest, he can take the opportunity to sneak in and obtain the immortal herb he has been longing for.

His "Purple Demon Eye" realm has been stuck at the "Overview" level for a long time, and he urgently needs a major stimulus to break through to the next level, "Microscopic".

After consuming "Blazing Apricot Blossom" and "Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass" to complete the Ice and Fire Refining Golden Body, he will then consume "Autumn Water Dew of Gazing River" to further enhance the realm of his "Purple Demon Eye".

Sure enough, that afternoon.

The dean of Notting Junior Academy found Luo and gave him an admission notice from the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, requiring him to report to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy within a month.

The next evening, Luo packed all his things, preparing to take a carriage to Tiandou City to enroll in school early the next morning.

"Luo, I can't bear to see you leave my side! I want to go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy with you!"

That night, Xiao Wu lay on Luo Guangjie's firm chest, her little face pressed against his collarbone, and said with eyes full of reluctance.

Luo reached out and gently stroked Xiao Wu's small, adorable nose, saying softly:

"I only have this one admission notice to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, so I'm the only one who can go. But I promise you, I'll come back to see you a year from now when you graduate from Notting Junior Academy."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu remained silent, but instead hugged Luo's neck even tighter.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and got up to pick up the soul tool necklace that Luo had given her not long ago, which was on the table next to her.

After channeling her soul power into it, Xiao Wu took out something resembling an arm guard and handed it to Luo, explaining:

"This is a hidden weapon that Tang San gave me a few days ago. It's called a 'sleeve arrow.' I have no idea how he made it."

"Luo, take this hidden weapon with you before you leave, use it for self-defense. Later, after I get another batch of hidden weapons from Tang San, I will give them all to you to use."

Luo held the hidden blade in his hand and examined it for a while before putting it into his soul tool ring.

At this moment, Xiao Wu suddenly suggested, "Luo, I remember you still have a small piece of 100,000-year-old whale glue, right? Why don't you give it to him tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Luo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Just as he was about to say something, his eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't utter a word.
