Long Chen came out from the vice dean, carrying a white robe trimmed with gold, a belt, a golden crown, a large seal, and a nameplate.
Every item bore the unique mark of Lingxiao Academy and carried the aura of heritage—something that couldn't be counterfeited.
Every item is a symbol of status. Long Chen hasn't reclaimed the Seventh Branch yet, but he's already gotten the director's attire.
In other words, he was now the director of the Seventh Branch, but at present, Long Chen was the only one in the entire Seventh Branch.
But Long Chen didn't care; this was exactly the identity he wanted. In the future, how impressive would he be when roaming the martial world? Laozi is the youngest dean in the history of Lingxiao Academy.
After two days of rest, Qi Yu had fully recovered. Long Chen had Qin Feng bring the Blood Extreme Pills refined by the Heavenly Fire Spirit Child to Qin Feng, and at the same time sent Qi Yu to sharpen his skills on the Blade Ladder.
Over the past few days, the medicinal power stored in Long Chen's body was finally absorbed by the runes. His body trembled violently, and a powerful aura surged within him.
"Four Extremes and One Heaven?"
Long Chen felt that the runes inside him seemed to have grown larger and became more active, moving freely within his body.
After advancing to the first level of the Four Extremes, Long Chen's aura hadn't changed significantly, but inside his body, subtle changes were subtly shifting—some changes that even Long Chen himself couldn't detect.
Three Wuji Pills had elevated Long Chen to the next level. Long Chen was both surprised and delighted, realizing he no longer needed to frantically swallow these Wuji Pills like before.
Although pill-eating advanced quickly, taking so many pills every day was enough to make Long Chen feel sick. This time, he finally didn't have to fight desperately.
Long Chen swallowed another Wuji Pill, which was quickly absorbed by the runes. However, once he took the second pill, the runes could no longer be absorbed. Clearly, they needed to be digested slowly.
These days, Xu Zixiong and Bai Xiaole have become the busiest people, becoming the big brothers of these newcomers.
Recently, Bai Xiaole had been diligently learning the Three Flower Eyes from his mother. After finishing, he would go find people to practice, and those newcomers had been tamed and obedient by him.
Xu Zixiong was just like them—a powerful figure from the outer domain, often sparring with them and giving them some guidance.
Although Xu Zixiong's own strength wasn't particularly strong, it still depended on who he was comparing. He couldn't compare to Qin Feng, but compared to these newcomers, he was still quite formidable.
It didn't take long before he became familiar with them. These arrogant guys, through Xu Zixiong's account, understood just how terrifying Long Chen was, and at the same time, became even more curious about him.
A few days later, Qin Feng and Qi Yu returned. Long Chen gathered Qin Feng, Qi Yu, Bai Xiaole, and Xu Zixiong together, preparing to leave, but Bai Shishi showed up.
"What are you doing here?" Long Chen was taken aback.
After so many days apart, Bai Shishi's cultivation had astonishingly reached the Fourth Heaven of the Four Extremes—she was actually a mid-stage Four Extremes powerhouse.
Long Chen had only recently started refining pills, so Bai Xiaole and Qin Feng were both at the Four Extremes First Heaven level like him. But Bai Shishi had bought top-grade Four Extremes Pills with her own money from the Pill Institute. She herself had money, so with no shortage of pills, her cultivation speed was naturally astonishing.
Moreover, her aura was extremely solid, without any unstable aura caused by rapid advancement. Bai Shishi's talent was truly astonishing.
Today, Bai Shishi was still dressed in a golden palace robe, but her high-bun was lowered like a waterfall. She was stunningly beautiful and stunning, but the sharp aura she exuded made people afraid to approach.
"What do you think?" Bai Shishi looked at Long Chen and asked in return.
"What do you mean?" Long Chen didn't understand.
"What are you going to do?" Bai Shishi asked.
"I have to help my brother find a place."
"And then?"
"Then... You ... How do you know? Long Chen was startled. He planned to finish handling Qi Yu's matters and then head to the Evil Dragon Domain to complete the mission assigned to him by the academy.
But this is a secret mission, and the Vice Dean personally instructed her not to tell anyone. How could Bai Shishi possibly know?
"You want to compete with me for the dean?" Long Chen said warily.
"I'll steal your head."
Bai Shishi laughed in exasperation: "Do you think I'm like you, caring about these empty titles?" I was going out to gain some experience. Only
then did Long Chen feel much more at ease. With a serious expression, he said, "You can come along, but outside, everything must follow my lead. You can't act recklessly." Bai
Shishi was stubborn. If they disagreed on any matter and some trouble broke out, Long Chen would go crazy.
"I think so, of course I'll listen to you."
After Bai Shishi said this, Long Chen's face darkened. It was basically pointless. Seeing Long Chen about to lose his temper, Bai Shishi quickly said, "
Why are you so petty, a grown man? I'm just joking with you. Everything outside is under your control."
Bai Shishi was also afraid of Long Chen being angry, because the dean had instructed that Long Chen had the right to refuse Bai Shishi's following, and she didn't dare act recklessly.
Hearing Bai Shishi say this, Long Chen's expression softened a little. It was Xu Zixiong's first time meeting Bai Shishi, and he was momentarily stunned. Clearly, he had never seen such a beautiful and elegant woman before.
Qi Yu secretly glanced at Qin Feng. Qin Feng shrugged, implying there was no other way—the boss was just that popular with women.
"What are you showing off? Playing with flirtatious gestures? "Long Chen saw the two guys exchanging glances and couldn't help but say irritably.
Long Chen and the others quietly left the academy, but Bai Shishi sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "This isn't a merchant ship dock. Where are you going?" "
Long Chen shook his head and said, "The merchant ships from Huayun Trading Company won't arrive until seven days. I can't wait any longer." "
Are you trying to cross the Sea of Demons?" Bai Shishi was taken aback.
"That's right."
"You're too crazy." Bai Shishi was speechless. Long Chen really could do anything.
But since she was already out, she didn't want to make a fuss or make a fuss, lest people think she was scared.
Long Chen and the others took the teleportation array in succession and soon arrived at the Demon Sea. The calm surface was dark and looked rather frightening.
This is not Yingzhou, but another coastal land. From here, if nothing unexpected happens, you can reach the other shore at full speed in a single day.
However, even the merchant ships of Huayun Trading Company do not speed recklessly; they travel at a relatively calm pace, completing a day's journey in several days.
Back then, Xu Zixiong also crossed the Sea of Demons, but it took him many days. In fact, it was because he lost his way halfway and took a detour.
The Demon Sea is like a winding river—some are wide, some are narrow. To cross, you need to find the right direction.
As the flying boat flew out from the continent, Long Chen immediately accelerated its speed to the fastest. The void roared and exploded, speeding all the way.
"Boom!"
But not long after it flew out, the waves surged wildly, and a massive creature opened its huge mouth and lunged at the flying vessel in one bite.
