Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 121 First Meeting with Zi Yan!

Inside the main hall of Black Seal City.

Hai Bodong and You Hai stood before Jiahe and said, "These past few days, many forces in the Black Corner Region have behaved themselves, but a few others have agreed to join us!"

Gah asked, "Oh? Which forces?"

"The Rakshasa Sect, the Mad Lion Gang, and the Heavenly Yin Sect have all submitted to us. Among them, the Heavenly Yin Sect's leader, Yin Gu Lao, is the strongest, having reached the level of a five-star Dou Huang!" Hai Bodong said.

Gah said, "It's good that some people have submitted; these people need to be properly taken care of."

Hai Bodong nodded and said, "Yes."

At this moment, Lei Yun walked in from outside and said, "My lord, the Black Emperor Sect Master has been moving around in the Black Corner Region these past two days, seemingly plotting something."

Youhai frowned and said, "They're definitely forming an alliance with the powerful figures in the Black Corner Region, probably to avenge his son!"

Gah smiled and asked, "Which places did he go to?"

"Demon Flame Valley, Maple City, Blood Sect, and Earth Flame Sect!" Lei Yun said slowly.

Jiahe nodded and said, "Among them, Demon Flame Valley is the strongest. The Earth Demon Old Ghost's strength has reached the Seven-Star Dou Zong level, while Maple City Lord Han Feng is the number one alchemist in the Black Corner Region and has a strong influence. We need to be careful!"

Lei Yun asked, "Should we summon the two patriarchs from the Thunder Sect and the Heavenly Serpent Mansion?"

Jiahe waved his hand and said, "No need for now. Don't worry about the old demon, but we need to pay close attention to Han Feng!"

"If Mo Tianxing can find helpers, then I can find helpers too!" Jiahe laughed.

The group asked with slight doubt, "We don't know anyone in the Black Corner Region!"

Gah said, "Canaan Academy is a natural ally. If all else fails, we can drag them down with us."

"So, shall we go to Canaan Academy now?" Youhai asked.

Gah said, "I can go by myself."

The three of them did not object. In any case, they were not familiar with Canaan Academy and would not be of much help if they went. It would be more convenient for Gahe to go alone.

As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, Gahe saw Medusa standing outside.

"You're back?" Gahe asked, somewhat surprised.

Medusa said, "I returned after finishing my business. No one came to surrender; I wiped out several small factions!"

Gah's expression froze. He now strongly suspected that Medusa hadn't given them a chance at all and had killed them directly.

"Fine, you shouldn't go out anymore. Just stay by my side all the time!" Jiahe said helplessly.

Medusa's lips curled into a slight smile, but she quickly regained her composure: "Stand by your side?"

Gah nodded and said, "Otherwise, you'll just cause trouble if you go out."

"I did not cause any trouble!" Medusa's eyes turned slightly cold as she glared at Gahe.

Gah said, "Alright, alright, you haven't caused any trouble. Now come with me!"

"Where to?" Medusa asked.

"Canaan Academy!" Gahe exclaimed.

……

Inside a secret chamber in the inner courtyard of Canaan College.

An elderly man dressed in a white robe was sitting cross-legged in the room, and opposite him sat another elderly man with white hair and beard.

These two are Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Court, and Hu Qian, the Dean of the Outer Court.

Hu Qian stroked his white beard and said, "The Black Corner Region has been rather turbulent lately!"

"When has the Black Corner Region ever been peaceful?" Su Qian said calmly.

Hu Qian chuckled and said, "That's true, but I've heard that a force called Emperor's Prison has recently emerged in the Black Corner Region. They've wiped out quite a few forces there, and their momentum is very strong!"

"Imperial Prison? That name is quite interesting, but as long as it doesn't involve Canaan Academy, even if the Black Corner Region is unified, it has nothing to do with us!" Su Qian said, placing a chess piece.

Hu Qian laughed and said, "If the Black Corner Region is truly unified, can our Canaan Academy remain unscathed?"

Hearing Hu Qian's words, Su Qian paused slightly while playing chess. After placing two pieces, Hu Qian chuckled and said, "You lost!"

Su Qian shook his head and said with a wry smile, "You old codger, you're clearly using those things from the Black Corner Region to disturb my peace of mind!"

Hu Qian said, "I wasn't, I was really talking to you about something."

"The outer court's enforcement team is running out of manpower; many people have flocked to Peace Town. I'd like to have some inner court disciples come and guard Peace Town for a while!"

"Of course, you can pay with fire!"

Hearing Hu Qian's words, Su Qian frowned and asked, "Is it that serious?"

Hu Qian said, "That's for sure. Besides, in addition to those smaller forces being wiped out, the one from Maple City and the old demon from Demon Flame Valley both seem to have reappeared!"

"That old man actually came out of seclusion. Wasn't he supposed to be in deep seclusion?" Su Qian frowned.

Hu Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific reason, but it's true that he has come out of seclusion."

Su Qian said, "Alright, I'll pass the word down. Any inner courtyard disciple with fire energy will definitely be willing to go."

Hu Qian nodded upon hearing this, then smiled and said, "How about it? The students sent to the inner academy this time are all quite capable, aren't they?"

Su Qian looked at Hu Qian helplessly and said, "You did this on purpose, didn't you? That Xiao Yan in this year's class, he's usually so quiet, but he really does surprise people when it matters. He almost blew up those inner court students!"

Hu Qian laughed heartily, "Back when he was competing in the outer courtyard, I already noticed his extraordinary talent; he was at least a promising prospect!"

"He is indeed a promising talent, and he is also very resilient and hardworking in his training," Su Qian commented with a slight nod.

"That's good!" Hu Qian nodded.

Suddenly, Su Qian's expression hardened, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Hu Qian was slightly taken aback, and immediately knew that something must have happened, so he also rushed outside.

The mountain range behind the inner courtyard.

Su Qian suddenly appeared, his deep, thunderous voice booming in the air: "Which senior has come to my inner courtyard? Please show yourself!"

Hu Qian rushed towards them at top speed, followed by several inner court elders. Several streaks of light flashed across the sky, causing some students on the back mountain to exclaim in surprise, "What happened on the back mountain?"

"Shall we go take a look?" someone suggested.

"Forget it, there are so many elders. What if something bad happens? We'll be in trouble!" someone objected.

At that moment, in a valley in the back mountain range, a small figure, looking somewhat disheveled, ran out.

Behind the small figure, a rumbling sound continued to come, and trees on both sides were constantly being crushed. A huge blood-red lizard rushed out from the crushed trees.

"Wow, I only ate one of your medicinal herbs, why are you chasing after me!" The little figure kept yelling, its body constantly darting through the mountains and forests, turning into afterimages.

The little man suddenly heard Elder Su Qian's voice and quickly cried out, "Old man, help me!"

The fiery red lizard behind her suddenly lashed out with its foul-smelling, slimy tongue, attacking the little girl.

Just then, the space around the little girl suddenly distorted, and a figure appeared there.

The man formed a sword with two fingers, and with a gentle flick, an incredibly terrifying sword aura erupted.

In the blink of an eye, the sword energy cleaved the newly-advanced sixth-tier Crimson Blood Demon Lizard in two.

Bang!

The little girl lost her balance and collided head-on with the person who had attacked her!
