”Have you heard? There are a few corpses in the forest in front of the Calligraphy Incense Garden overnight.”

”Yes, the damage to the surroundings was quite severe, but the strange thing is that even though the level of fighting was not weak, it did not attract anyone's attention or detection.”

”Those people aren't from the Holy Flame Academy anyway, so why bother so much.”

From the journey back to Holy Flame Academy from Jiang She Town, Qin Shaojie had also heard a lot of news about last night. However, Qin Shaojie still did not have any fluctuation in his emotions, as if he was not concerned about these things, and directly walked towards the Sacred Heart Lake.

Not many people could guess that this whole matter was related to Qin Shaojie, but there were quite a few students who noticed the fear in Qin Shaojie's eyes.

Qin Shaojie did not care about them at all. Although the current him was still the center of attention for many students, it was fortunate that many people had restrained themselves quite a bit compared to before. After all, those points had all been exchanged by Qin Shaojie, and since everyone was very busy, there wasn't anything of value on Qin Shaojie right now.

Unless it was Qin Shaojie who provoked someone, many people would only take him to be a little kid who had once had too much limelight.

As for Qin Shaojie's previous experience that sounded like a legend, many students felt that it was only so, because every single year, the academy would battle with him in a knock-out competition. In their opinion, even if Qin Shaojie stayed in the Holy Flame Academy, he did not have much time.

After all, the longer they stayed in the Holy Flame Academy, the greater the disparity would be.

”The Sunburn Tree is getting worse.”

Inside the Sacred Heart Lake, the Su Lao's expression was currently quite solemn. In these few days, he could clearly feel that the Sunburn Tree's absorption of his life force was much stronger than before. There was only one possibility for this strong absorption of life force, and that was that the Sunburn Tree's situation was even worse than before.

The Sunburn Tree absorbed the profound energy from so many Heaven and Earth profound veins. At least, she could feel the benefits and disadvantages.

That was why Su Lao was so worried.

Su Lao's words caused Qin Shaojie's heart to tighten. He thought the Sunburn Tree would be able to hold on for a while longer, but according to what Su Lao said, even with the state he was in, he would not be able to hold on for one year.

A year was nothing but a flick of a finger for warriors, but it was a critical moment for the current Su Lao. Because, once the Sunburn Tree's life force completely dissipated, the secrets of the Heaven and Earth profound veins would no longer be preserved, and the Su Lao would also become the Holy Flame Academy's sinner. Although this was not his fault, how could the Su Lao's personality forgive him?

”Su Lao, how long until the ancient ruins will be opened?”

After withdrawing his gaze from the Sunburn Tree, Qin Shaojie was not able to sense any life on the Sunburn Tree, it was just that the situation on the Sunburn Tree was more complicated than what Su Lao had said.

”I'm not sure. Maybe half a year, maybe a year, maybe even longer.”

Talking about this, Su Lao also shook his head. Right now, no one knew if the ancient ruins were a blessing or a curse to the Holy Flame Academy. These were not things that the Holy Flame Academy could control. However, Su Lao also understood that the key reason for Qin Shaojie's question was because of Nightmare Aroma.

Frowning, Qin Shaojie did not speak. If he was at his peak state, he would be able to think of a way to guess when the Ancient Ruins would appear, but the current Qin Shaojie did not have that much power.

Just as the Su Lao had said, he could only wait.

”In the future, don't fight too many people around Holy Flame Academy. The current you, is not enough to truly avoid his methods.”

Suddenly, Su Lao looked at Qin Shaojie and spoke. Qin Shaojie was caught off guard by his words, but following that, he laughed helplessly, Su Lao's words clearly had a hidden meaning.
