Xiang Shaoyun was gratified to see his companions supporting him, and he said, ”Since everyone is of the same mind, let's make a plan. How should we rescue Lady Shura?'

He brought everyone to the main hall to discuss their rescue mission.

When everyone was seated, Xiang Shaoyun opened the topic, ”All of you might not know this, but I am mortal enemies with the Di Alliance's Di Lin. He is most certainly aiming to kill me. It is likely that a large number of experts are hiding in ambush, including Soul Foundation Realm experts. That is one of the reasons I do not want you guys to partic.i.p.ate. I wasn't looking down on you.”

The others were stunned when they heard the truth. They had believed that this was merely a minor conflict between the two factions, but surprisingly, there was much more at play.

”If Sovereigns are taking part as well, this will be a big incident. We are decently strong, but all of us are too young. And since we can't borrow the strength of external forces, the rescue mission will be hard to complete,” said Zhuge Zhantian.

”But the Di Alliance members are also academy disciples like us. How had they obtained help from external forces, then?” Ma Qihao asked in confusion.

Xiang Shaoyun answered, ”They have long been prepared. Otherwise, they wouldn't have bothered doing it far away from the academy. Brothers, since you wish to help me, then go and beat the Di Alliance members up. Beat them so badly they can no longer stand straight. Meanwhile, I will focus on the rescue mission.”

But at this time, Shang Jifeng smiled. ”Overlord, you don't know this, but the Nisha Range is actually not that far from my Shang Clan's territory.”

”Is that so?” Xiang Shaoyun was overjoyed.

”Haha, I won't joke about things like this,” said Shang Jifeng with a chortle. ”We only have a few days left before the appointed time. If we rush over with a teleportation portal, we might be able to make it in time.”

”Is your clan fine with this? This will have a far-ranging impact,” asked Xiang Shaoyun, somewhat worried.

For a tier-7 organization, sending Sovereigns out on a mission was a big deal. Xiang Shaoyun could guess that a genius like Shang Jifeng definitely had a high status in his clan, but that did not guarantee help from his clan's Sovereigns.

”Don't worry. I still have some respect in the clan. Let's get going and not delay any further,” said Shang Jifeng confidently.

Xiang Shaoyun replied gratefully, ”Ok, I will remember this favor. Everyone, with Shang Jifeng's help, you guys don't have to come with me. Focus on growing stronger. A day will come when we eat up the entire Di Alliance!”

”Yes, Overlord. May you return in triumph,” said the others.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun and Shang Jifeng went to the Missions Hall to accept a random mission. To leave the academy, they required a proper excuse, such as a mission. Based on Zhuge Zhantian's report, Lady Shura's mission was to kill the sin dragons at the Nisha Range for their bones.

The evil dragons were a species of demonic beast that had inherited a tiny bit of the evil dragons' bloodline. Like the flood dragons, they possessed incredible combat prowess, and their bones were excellent materials for weaponsmithing.

Despite their strength, the sin dragons did not generally stick together. Lady Shura's initial intention of accepting the mission was to complete it as her strength allowed. She had never expected to be targeted and kidnapped. Of course, n.o.body would expect something like that, so she wasn't to be blamed for it. Besides, the actual target in the scheme was Xiang Shaoyun, not her.
