He was resurrected indefinitely and handed over to the state by the headmistress.

"Let's go! Let's get out of this awful place!"

Canglong retrieved a spare flying boat and beckoned everyone to board.

The group continued their advance toward the border defense line.

"Hey! Wait for us!!!"

Upon seeing this, Liu Yanyan quickly shouted and took out a spare flying boat, taking Chen Xiaofeng with her to chase after them.

Now, their only chance of survival is to stick close to Lu Chen.

Otherwise, they would end up like Wang Xiaoqiao and the others, forever buried in this desert of the underworld...

However, Lu Chen was unaware that an even greater storm was quietly brewing.

The first heaven, the ancestral home of the Fu family.

"Bang--!!!"

A fine rosewood table was smashed to pieces with a single blow. An old man with a bristling beard and hair and a dignified face looked at the shattered soul tablet in his hand, his eyes filled with grief and indignation!

"Damn Kunlun Academy! I'll make them pay with their lives for my daughter!!!"

He was furious, and a terrifying aura erupted from his body, directly shattering the display shelves in the secret room into pieces!

"Guards! Assemble the family guards! Follow me to Kunlun Academy to demand an explanation!!!"

Almost simultaneously, in the Second Heaven, the ancestral home of the Wang family.

"My son... my little Qiao'er!!!"

A graceful and beautiful woman held Wang Xiaoqiao's shattered spirit tablet, weeping uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face like broken beads.

"I told her she didn't want to go! She didn't want to go! That damned Kunlun Academy! Give me back my daughter's life!!!"

"Pass on my orders!"

A middle-aged man with a sinister face and cold eyes stood to one side, his voice sounding as if squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Gather all the capable fighters of the Wang family! Follow me to Kunlun Academy to seek justice for my daughter! Whoever killed her, I will make them pay with their blood!!!"

The Fu and Wang families of the First Heaven are both powerful families, like a sleeping giant that has been completely awakened!

A force of tens of thousands, a vast array of flying ships and warships, pressed down on Kunlun Academy like a dark cloud!

They are going to Kunlun Academy to demand an explanation!

Lu Chen was completely unaware of all this...

"Lu Chen, I'll remember you..."

In a special secret realm, a man wearing a dragon-patterned mask grasped the Heavenly Origin Cauldron that flew back into his hand and murmured something under his breath.

His gaze reflected Lu Chen's figure.

A moment later, he withdrew his gaze, turned and walked towards the boundless abyss deep within the secret realm, his figure gradually swallowed by the darkness.

There were no disgusting and foolish people deliberately provoking demons, nor was there any fire spirit secretly watching over them.

However, Lu Chen did not let his guard down and remained highly vigilant.

That man with the dragon-patterned mask is no ordinary character.

He could sense that the other side had only temporarily retreated, and the real storm was probably yet to come.

"Boss, ladies, please enjoy some melon seeds!"

Canglong came over with a big bowl of fruit slices, his chubby face full of a fawning smile.

The basin was filled with a dazzling array of items, including spiritual fruits they had previously stored, as well as rare and precious materials they had encountered on the road and collected after defeating the guardian demons.

The Ice and Fire Melon emits alternating red and blue halos, the Yellow Spring Watermelon is golden yellow all over, and the Century-Old Peach is pink and juicy, with a fragrant aroma.

"Just give it to me."

Su Daji stepped forward, took the fruit bowl, and began to gently serve Lu Chen and the three mistresses.

Her alluring eyes were filled with love as she picked up a piece of chilled honeydew melon with her slender hand and brought it to Lu Chen's lips.

"Master, open your mouth~"

Lu Chen opened his mouth and ate it. The sweet juice exploded in his mouth, bringing a wonderful sensation of coolness and warmth.

He chewed a few times, swallowed, and his gaze swept across the endless yellow sand around him. He asked:

"Qingqing, how much longer until we arrive?"

Since Zhu Qingqing and the others have already been exposed, they might as well show themselves openly.

Moreover, the task itself was problematic, so Lu Chen wasn't afraid of being blamed by the academy.

On the contrary, he wants to demand compensation for emotional distress from the college.

How exactly did the other party recruit teachers?

A traitor from the evil cult had infiltrated their ranks and nearly caused the deaths of his entire group!

"At our pace, it should be ready in about another day."

Zhu Qingqing answered softly, her tone calm, but her eyes were somewhat unfocused.

She dared not look Lu Chen in the eye, her gaze always instinctively darting away.

These past few days, she has been pondering a question: why was Su Daji able to successfully merge with Lu Chen on her first try, while she had failed dozens of times?

The conclusion she drew was heartbreaking:

It's my own fault, my lack of understanding of love, and my insufficient love for the other person that led to the failure of our connection...

This thought gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake, keeping her awake at night.

"Canglong, tell them to speed things up; they won't rest tonight."

Lu Chen spoke.

He was tired of the desert environment; nothing was convenient, and even taking a bath was a problem.

"Alright, boss!"

Canglong immediately flashed a fawning smile and turned to Miao Tiaojun and Xuanyuan Tai, shouting:

"Brothers, did you hear that? The boss has spoken! Increase energy output, full speed ahead!"

"clear!"

The three of them simultaneously channeled their spiritual energy into the flying boat's drive array.

The stern of the dusty, gray flying boat suddenly burst into a dazzling light.

Transforming into a streak of light, it dashed forward like an arrow released from a bow!

"call out--!"

The speed of the airship suddenly increased, and the surrounding yellow sand was blown to both sides by the strong wind.

"Hey! Don't run so fast! Wait for me!!!"

Behind them came Liu Yanyan's furious shout.

She and Chen Xiaofeng frantically tried to control the dilapidated spare airship.

I chased after them with all my might, but they kept falling further and further behind.

"Sister Qingqing, are you alright?"

Hua Xiyu keenly noticed Zhu Qingqing's unusual behavior and asked softly, her eyes filled with concern.

"fine……"

Zhu Qingqing forced a smile and replied.

But out of the corner of her eye, she kept staring at Lu Chen's back, her fingers unconsciously twisting together.

She was filled with hesitation, wondering if she... wasn't good enough to be by his side.

Hua Xiyu smiled gently as she looked at Zhu Qingqing's "waiting-for-husband" expression.

"This younger sister must have been thinking about it..."

Hua Xiyu chuckled to herself, recalling the wonderful feeling of her soul merging with Lu Chen's, and a blush involuntarily crept onto her face.

Ever since she had experienced the passionate lovemaking with her husband, and after a few days without intimacy, she was actually starting to feel restless...

Just then, Bibi Dong's voice suddenly rang out, carrying a hint of solemnity:

"Watch out, there's something ahead!"

She was the highest-ranking person present, and her perception range was also the largest.

The unusual energy fluctuations ahead were detected immediately.

"The eldest sister-in-law has spoken! Everyone get ready!"

Canglong immediately dropped his playful grin and shouted in a deep voice.

Hua Zhanyue had already gripped the sword hilt with his right hand, and a fierce sword aura gathered around him;

Xuanyuan Tai's body was quietly activating the Eight Gates Fat Burning Technique, ready to unleash astonishing power at any moment;

Chun-Li stood beside Miao Tiao-Jun, her fists clenched, with faint blue energy fluctuations emanating from them;

Ran Ruhua's butterfly wings were slightly open behind her, and colorful phosphorescent powder shimmered in the sunlight.

"Could it be that old man Huo Ming is back again...?"

Miao Tiaojun muttered to himself, a hint of nervousness on his face.

Lu Chen did not tell them that Huo Ming and all the men in black robes were dead.

They both mistakenly believed that the other had run away, and Lu Chen was too lazy to explain.

Anyway, he has the video of Huo Ming attacking him; the rest can be left to the academy to handle.

If this isn't handled well, then don't blame him for calling in reinforcements. If Xuan Yuanwu isn't up to the task, then call in the Martial God. It would be best to thoroughly reorganize the academy.

Lu Chen guessed that Huo Ming was definitely not the only traitor in the academy.

We can't let the academy be infiltrated by Japan like it was hundreds of years ago, with its cherry blossoms.
