Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Looking at Zhou Yiqiao who was arranging his clothes in front of him, Wu Ranchen asked.

"Are you going back so soon?"

Zhou Yiqiao nodded and answered softly.

"Well, I am the dean of the academy after all. I haven't told anyone about this during this trip, so it's time to go back."

When Wu Ranchen heard this, he chuckled.

"In that case, give me a try before you go back."

"Then I lost to you. I have been practicing hard since I returned to the sect. The shame of that day must be paid back to you today!"

Zhou Yiqiao laughed heartily when he heard this.

"Since Her Royal Highness the Saint has given you such a warm invitation, it would be unkind for me to refuse, so I'll just do as you wish."

When Wu Ranchen saw this, he smiled like a flower and made seals with his bare hands. A burst of dense energy surged out from his hands and enveloped the two of them.

In an instant, the two figures flashed and disappeared from the house.

After a stick of incense, in a dense forest in the wilderness, two figures were fighting fiercely, and they were indistinguishable.

"Boom!"

Following a series of explosions, Zhou Yiqiao swung his sword, and a sharp bloody sword light shot through the air, instantly knocking Wu Ranchen to the ground.

Zhou Yiqiao stepped forward and looked down at the beautiful woman lying on the ground.

"Your Highness the Saint, I accept the offer."

Blood spilled from the corner of Wu Ranchen's mouth, he raised his head and glared at Zhou Yiqiao, and said fiercely.

"Why is the power of your sword move driven by blood evil increased so much?"

"I thought I could avenge my shame this time, but I didn't expect that I would end up humiliating myself."

She stood up tremblingly, took a healing elixir, and continued to speak.

"Let's count you as the winner this time! Next time you come to Netherworld Sect, we will compete again!"

Zhou Yiqiao was startled when he heard this, then nodded and smiled.

"Thank you for your teachings, Your Highness the Holy Lady. I'll say goodbye now. I'll definitely come back to visit you again after the trivial matters in the academy are settled!"

"Farewell."

After saying this, he cupped his fists and saluted Wu Ranchen, and left in the air.

Looking at the retreating figure, Wu Ranchen's eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness, he gritted his silver teeth and returned to the Netherworld Sect.

......

Because Zhenjun Xuanyun saw through his cultivation at a glance, Zhou Yiqiao became more cautious.

Along the way, he was cautious and attentive, but did not cause any disturbance, and returned to the academy calmly.

The dean of his family disappeared for more than ten days without leaving any news, and the entire academy's senior officials were worried.

Now that they know that there is a Nascent Soul evil cultivator in Xinzhengzhou, these people are counting on Zhou Yiqiao as their backbone.

If it weren't for the students in the Qi Refining Realm in the academy, they would have fled far away to save their own lives.

Therefore, as soon as Zhou Yiqiao stepped into the academy, he felt the eager eyes of He Yunxi, Xie Bao and all the teachers.

"Dean Zhou, you are finally back!"

"A few days ago, Miss He came to ask me about the whereabouts of the dean, and we found out that you didn't notify anyone, dean."

"Yes, now that New Zhengzhou is surrounded by crises, we thought something bad happened to the dean."

After listening to everyone's inquiries, Zhou Yiqiao apologized.

"This matter was not considered carefully by me. Please forgive me."

"I may have to leave for a while, but don't worry, I will ask Zhang Tong and Yang Tao to take care of the academy."

After hearing Zhou Yiqiao's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they are high-ranking members of the academy, they are too weak. After all, they still hope to be protected by strong monks.

After simply appeasing everyone, Zhou Yiqiao returned to his residence.

Xie Bao followed him all the way until he entered the courtyard and confirmed that Zhou Yiqiao had opened the restriction before he spoke.

"Dean, Zhang Tong and Yang Tao have sent people to inform you that the matter promised to you has been resolved in advance."

"Oh?"

Zhou Yiqiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, with a look of joy on his face.

"When did they notify you?"

"The letter sent last night said that I hope you will reply as soon as possible."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded when he heard this, glanced at Xie Bao, pondered for a moment, and finally threw out a storage bag.

"I will be out for a period of time after that. I can't guarantee how long it will be. How hard will it take for you to deal with the affairs of the academy?"

Xie Bao took the storage bag, glanced with his consciousness, and saw that the storage bag was full of second-level alchemy and spiritual objects, and his eyes suddenly became enthusiastic.

"Thank you, Dean, for the reward. I will do my best and never let you down, Dean."

Xie Bao suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with cupped hands.

"I see that you have been immersed in Foundation Establishment Dzogchen for many years. Do your best. If there are signs of a breakthrough in the future, I can find a Chaoyuan Pill for you."

After finishing the explanation, Zhou Yiqiao drew a cake in a few words, and then came to the academy in person.

After showing his face in front of all the students and encouraging them with a few words, he rushed to Zhang Tong's residence with Chu Tianxing.

At this time, the person occupying the main seat in the hall was not Zhang Tong, but a man with a handsome face and a smiling face.

This man's face is pale, but his aura is extremely strong. His cultivation has reached the late stage of Jindan. He is obviously not a simple character.

I saw that his fingers folded in front of him were curled up with slightly orchid fingers, and he was talking softly to Zhang Tong beside him.

It wasn't until they saw Zhou Yiqiao arriving that the two of them stopped talking.

Zhang Tong cupped his hands towards Zhou Yiqiao and said.

"Brother Zhou, long time no see."

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao returned the favor with his hands, then looked at the man sitting in the main seat and said doubtfully.

"Brother Zhang, I wonder who this is?"

Zhang Tong heard this and quickly introduced.

"This is Eunuch Lin, appointed by the Holy Emperor to take charge of matters within the palace. You may call me Lord Lin."

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he bowed his hands and saluted.

"It turned out to be Eunuch Lin. I met him on the bridge next week."

"You're welcome, Master Zhou. Please excuse me quickly."

Mr. Lin raised his right hand to signal, and waved his hand to Zhou Yiqiao with a smile.

"Thanks to Mr. Zhou for taking personal risks, we found out that there were evil cultivators running around in Xinzhengzhou."

"The Holy Emperor has sent people to investigate this matter, and there will be results soon."

"As for the reward, the Holy Emperor has promised that as long as Mr. Zhou returns to the imperial city with the old slave, he can enter the royal library and choose the exercises!"

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he was immediately shocked.

"Eunuch Lin, I would like to ask you, do you know when you will leave to return to Liuli Imperial City?"

When Eunuch Lin saw this, he smiled.

"Master Zhou has made such a great contribution, so naturally he listens to Master Zhou's ideas."

"But this old slave is managing affairs in the palace for His Majesty. Naturally, he hopes to go back as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao still didn't understand what the other party meant.

"In that case, let's set off today. What's the public opinion?"
