The Peerless Tang Sect: Possessing Huo Yuhao at the Start

Chapter 59 Return

"Teacher Xuan," Huo Zhan called out to Xuan Ziwen, who was on patrol.

Xuan Ziwen smiled slightly and asked, "Does Zhan Ji have any questions?"

"Teacher Xuan, I'll come find you later. Our exchange period is almost over, and I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Huo Zhanji said quickly.

"Okay." Xuan Ziwen agreed to Huo Zhanji's request without any hesitation.

Huo Zhanji smiled slightly. In two more days, he would leave here and return to Shrek Academy. After being busy for a while, he finally walked out of Mingde Hall.

"We've finally caught you. Let's see where you run this time." Jing Ziyan looked at Huo Zhanji, who was walking out of Mingde Hall, with a malicious expression. Not far away, the sword fanatic Ji Juechen was also staring at Huo Zhanji.

Huo Zhanji smiled wryly and said, "Do we still want to fight? How many matches have we played and have you ever won?"

Jing Ziyan snorted and said, "So what? Right now, there's no student in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy who's stronger than you. Even though we often lose to you, we still gain some experience."

Huo Zhanji said helplessly, "In two more days, I will be going back to Shrek Academy."

"You're leaving?" ×2

"Well, our exchange program is over. I'll probably be going back to Shrek Academy the day after tomorrow," Huo Zhanji said.

Jing Ziyan frowned slightly, but Ji Juechen turned and left without lingering. Jing Ziyan glanced at Huo Zhanji and then followed Ji Juechen, quickening her pace as if she had something urgent to attend to.

Huo Zhanji entered Xuan Ziwen's office and sat down. Xuan Ziwen then said, "What's the problem?"

"I'd like to ask Professor Xuan, haven't you ever thought about researching soul tools yourself?" Huo Zhanji asked Xuan Ziwen.

"Go on," Xuan Ziwen said, taking off his glasses.

"As you probably know, my research on soul tools isn't limited to the types we currently possess. My research findings will at least ensure you don't waste your time. Therefore, I hope you, teacher, can join my sect. If you do, I will not hold back what I promised you," Huo Zhanji said.

"Then what can you offer to make me believe you?" Xuan Ziwen asked almost without hesitation.

"Just take a quick look."

Huo Zhanji used his mental power to display the design blueprints of those soul tools, and an interstellar warship instantly transformed and reassembled. Xuan Ziwen himself was a person who was obsessed with soul tool research, so he was naturally very familiar with these things. Especially when he saw those soul tools that did not require soul power and could be used even by ordinary people, Xuan Ziwen had completely gone crazy. This was a combination of Huo Zhanji's technology from Blue Star and the future interstellar warships of Douluo Continent.

"These...these...do these soul tools really exist? Huo Zhanji, tell me! Tell me now!" Xuan Ziwen suddenly stood up and said.

"These are not perfect for the current situation, and I can only give you a general overview. There is much more to come."

As he spoke, some design blueprints resembling mecha appeared on Huo Zhanji's mental projection. In order to completely ensnare Xuan Ziwen into the Patching Heaven Pavilion, Huo Zhanji directly brought out the Star Soul General that his phantom had transformed into.

"This is impossible! With our current soul guidance abilities, we couldn't possibly achieve this!" Xuan Ziwen's eyes were bloodshot.

"Nothing is impossible. The difference between now and ten thousand years ago is enormous. Nothing is impossible. Besides, who can know how things will change in the future?" Huo Zhanji said calmly.

"Are all these things you're talking about really real? If they are, then as long as you can give me these things to study, I'll take you anywhere!" Back in his seat, Xuan Ziwen couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Teacher Xuan, have you made up your mind?" Huo Zhanji put away the mental projection and slowly spoke.

Finally, as if giving up the struggle, Xuan Ziwen let out a weak sigh, "Let me think about it for a few days..."

Huo Zhanji smiled slightly, then handed a letter to Xuan Ziwen and said, "If you've thought it through, you can go to this place."

.........

The next morning, Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan wanted to find Huo Zhanji.

Ji Juechen looked at Huo Zhanji and asked, "Will you stay at Shrek Academy forever?"

Huo Zhanji replied quickly, "Not for the time being, but who can say for sure? I have my own power base, and it won't be limited to Shrek Academy."

Jing Ziyan walked to Ji Juechen's side and gave Huo Zhanji a deep look. "Don't think we'll let you off the hook just because you ran back to Shrek Academy."

Huo Zhanji chuckled and said, "If you're so capable, then come along. I can show you the real me, without holding back."

A glint flashed in Ji Juechen's eyes. "I hope you're not lying to me." With that, Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan turned and left.

Before leaving, Huo Zhanji made a special trip to visit Jing Hongchen to get some resources from Mingde Hall. Due to his relationship with Meng Hongchen and the fact that Jing Hongchen also favored Huo Zhanji, Huo Zhanji obtained a large amount of rare metals without much effort. Before leaving, Huo Zhanji also left Meng Hongchen a soul tool projection stone containing a simplified version of the Star Transformation Sea technique. Huo Zhanji was not worried about the technique leaking out, since it required bloodline to activate.

Before leaving, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy held a grand farewell party. The event was so lively that even Jing Hongchen and Xu Tianran attended in person.

At the farewell party, Jing Hongchen delivered a passionate speech. Although he had encountered many unpleasant things in the past two years, things were generally good. Judging from his expression, everything was full of joy, especially when he looked at Huo Zhanji, he smiled very happily. Before leaving, he even asked Huo Zhanji when he would marry his granddaughter Meng Hongchen.

Huo Zhanji did not give a direct answer to this, only saying, "We've already kissed, is it appropriate not to get married?"

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen's lips almost stretched to the back of her ears in a wide grin, though what Huo Zhanji was thinking remained a mystery.

The exchange of students between Shrek Academy and the Royal Academy of the Sun Moon Empire continued in Maple Leaf City. When He Caitou and Huo Zhanji appeared in Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er's sight, both of them looked somewhat bewildered. Although they were pleasantly surprised, when they saw Huo Zhanji and Jing Hongchen bargaining, both Yan Shaozhe, who was leading the team, and the others were petrified.

"Dean Yan, hello. It seems you've made progress again after all these years." After finishing their discussion, Jing Hongchen stepped forward and shook hands with Yan Shaozhe.

Yan Shaozhe replied with a smile, "Master Jing, I have returned your grandson to you in his entirety. He has made great progress in the past two years. I hope we can continue to exchange and learn from each other like we did today."

Jing Hongchen nodded, "If I have time, I would like to discuss with your academy whether we can continue this exchange and learning program in the future."

After the mutual flattery, they called their respective students back to their own sides. However, it was impossible to know who benefited the most from this exchange, but the one who benefited the most was Huo Zhanji's Butian Pavilion.

The journey back was uneventful, and nothing unexpected happened. Although there was no crisis, the four powerful beings within Huo Zhanji's body still told him that an extremely powerful person was secretly monitoring them. Huo Zhanji knew with his toes that it was Long Xiaoyao, but he didn't show any killing intent.

Led by Yan Shaozhe, the group returned safely to Shrek Academy. Outside Shrek City, Elder Xuan had been waiting for a long time.

"Everyone, go back and rest. Huo Zhanji, you will stay in the Sea God Pavilion for now. We will arrange accommodation for you after the event ends in a few days. Huo Zhanji, your original accommodation has been assigned to someone else."

"I understand." Huo Zhanji slowly landed. After all, Shrek City's rules were extremely strict, so he could no longer continue flying after Elder Xuan left.
