Chapter 1998: Study Room (2/2)

“Is there something you want while staying at Study Room?” She asked.

“Just meals should suffice, nothing else.” Li Qiye chuckled and said.

She didn’t know what to say. A character like him wouldn’t have come to their academy for no reason. No one at that level would have so much free time. Alas, she had no way of guessing his intentions. Neither did the elders at the academy.

“What’s wrong? Go ahead and speak.” Li Qiye smiled after seeing her hesitation.

“The elders want to know if you actually need anything. They can help you find it.” She said with prudence.

“I know.” He smiled: “Those geezers are restless, thinking that I’m up to something, but that’s quite normal. Is Asura still alive?”

“Ancestor Asura is still in this world.” She shuddered after hearing about this existence.

“Take this to him, he’ll know who I am.” He casually handed her an item before ordering.

She took a gander at it but couldn’t see anything special before putting it away: “Rest a.s.sured, Young n.o.ble, I will give it to the ancestor. Is there anything else you want?”

“Not right now, let me rest for a few days.” Li Qiye smiled and said: “Little girl, I know you have questions. That’s right, I’m indeed here to find something, but the elders won’t be able to help me. Even emperors like Fei and Deep South couldn’t research it, let alone them.”

This nonchalant statement made her astounded. These were top existences that have started an ultimate expedition. But now, he said that they couldn’t find this item? Just what could this mystery be?

“What now? Since when did the academy become so careful? The relations.h.i.+p between it and the repository is strong, but even without your sect’s help, no one can touch the academy anyway. Since when is it afraid of others?” Li Qiye continued.

She hesitated because certain things shouldn’t be said.

“I see, a few things have changed.” Li Qiye said: “The era is changing and so is the academy. Perhaps this is a type of tribulation.”

The topic was too heavy and outside of her jurisdiction, but she felt that he had guessed a few things.

Study Room was different from the other cla.s.srooms, desolate and not as crowded.

It was built among the hills scattering everywhere. Just like that, one could see buildings on top and even around the sharp cliffs.

Stone bridges connected the perilous gaps. Lonely stony paths connected everywhere while the leaves fell from the trees. This place looked quite serene.

It was as if this place didn’t wish to be disturbed. People walking here felt an urge to soften their pace.

But once inside Study Room, only those who were strong enough could sense something special. Ordinary cultivators couldn’t feel this aura at all.

“So many emperors have stayed here and left behind their marks. Fei and Deep South truly toiled to leave behind this land. Unfortunately, the future generation doesn’t understand it.” He chuckled and said.
