Chapter 875 Returning to Absolute Academy (2/2)
In Chen Feng’s opinion, these clowns attempting to create a stir were nothing more than minor characters.
“Do not be careless. As a place that could be called a Holyland, Absolute Academy is not as simple as it looks on the surface. There are many hidden cultivators within it. Sword Immortal Azuretip and Sage Aquafire have very formidable backers. Even Dao Jun and the others, whom you killed, have Earthen Immortals backing them.
“That’s right. The moment Immortal Azuretip and the others returned, they had announced that they would be taking action against you. Once you appear, they will come to capture you. The way I see it, you should leave right now, or else it will be too late.”
“Yes. Hurry up and leave while they still do not know about your return. You can head back to East Dragon Island.”
All of them knew that the force under Chen Feng’s command in East Dragon Island was very strong. There were even Yao Immortals and Demon Kings within its ranks. If Chen Feng could make it back there, even a Holyland would have to carefully consider its decision to take action against Chen Feng.
“If you fellows can find out about my return, they will naturally be able to as well. Running is not an option. Truth be told, the reason I chose to return to Absolute Academy immediately is because I want to wait for the arrival of some people. Some people who do not understand the meaning of death.” Chen Feng chuckled.
“Well said, Brother Chen! You’re a gutsy one. Sword Immortal Azuretip and the others are just clowns. There is nothing to worry about,” Marquis Scarletfire praised.
“Sigh! Is this the time to be saying something like this?” An apprehensive expression appeared on Lan Ling’s face.
Lan Ling had witnessed Chen Feng’s abilities many times before. Thus, she was aware that Chen Feng was beyond the ordinary. Even so, no matter how strong Chen Feng may be, there was no way he could deal with Absolute Academy.
Absolute Academy was known as a Holyland, an existence surpassing first-rate sects and families. It was not given this title for nothing. It simply had too many experts.
“Even if I want to, I won’t be able to. They are already here.” Chen Feng smiled.
Sou! Sou!
As expected, Sword Immortal Azuretip, Sage Aquafire, Immortal Skyfire and some other cultivators appeared. Surprisingly, there were over 100 cultivators with them. All of them then proceeded to surround Chen Feng’s grotto-mansion.
The strands of killing intent informed Chen Feng that they were thinking of killing him.
They’ve come. Not to mention, they also managed to recruit so many people. Still, Wiselord Darknight did not come. Quite the wise fellow, Chen Feng thought.
“What are you fellows doing here?” Marquis Scarletfire was the first to shout out.
“Marquis Scarletfire, this does not concern you. Hurry up and leave.”
“That’s right. Marquis Scarletfire, hurry up and leave, or we’ll kill you as well.”
“Ptui!” Marquis Scarletfire sneered, ignoring their threats. On the contrary, Lan Ling and the others grew worried.
Although Lan Ling and the others were all geniuses, their levels were too low. Not to mention, it hadn’t been too long since they reached the Human Immortal stage. They were far from a match for these veterans.
“Over 100 Human Immortals. Tsk, tsk. Only now did I know that our Absolute Academy is so strong,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Those of you who are not involved, hurry up and leave. Once we take action, you will be dragged in. Things will not be good for you once that happens.”
“That’s right. Junior sisters, you should leave.”
“Humph! What’s with all the nonsense? Just attack!”
“Senior brothers and sisters, you fellows coming here like this is a violation of our academy’s rules.” Lan Ling collected herself before speaking up.
“Can you not see who the ones here are?” Immortal Skyfire suddenly laughed.
“Half of them are members of the Enforcement Division. Looks like the higher-ups are involved.” Marquis Scarletfire sent Chen Feng a secret vocal transmission.
Chen Feng nodded. He was aware of that. No matter how arrogant they may be, they would not have the courage to act wantonly within the academy. They would have secretly taken action instead.
Judging by the current situation, all of the charges against him and whatever happened next were likely already arranged beforehand.
“Senior Sister Lan, you fellows leave first,” Chen Feng said.
“No,” Lan Ling replied. It was a somewhat soft, but there was firmness in her voice. The same was true of Xie Hongyan, Luo Pianpian, Hu Xian’er and the others. Despite the grim look on their faces, none of them backed away.
“Are you looking down on us here?” Bi Shuidie gave Chen Feng a glance.
“That’s not what I mean. A fight will probably be erupting soon and there are some peak-level Human Immortals on their side. I am afraid that you fellows might get hurt.
“Don’t worry about me. I know what I am doing.”
“We will not leave!” Lan Ling remained adamant.
“If that’s the case, standing behind us should be fine, right?”
“That’s right! You are females. What are you doing standing in front of us guys?” Marquis Scarletfire chimed in.
However, the female cultivators merely scoffed, ignoring Marquis Scarletfire.
“Chen Feng, we are here under the Academy Head’s orders. You should come with us,” Sage Aquafire said with a calm voice. However, the killing intent within his eyes was strong enough to burn humans to crisp.
Back then, Sage Aquafire had lost a top-grade Dao artefact. Even now, thinking about it would bring about the urge to puke blood. Thus, Sage Aquafire had been delighted to learn of Chen Feng’s return. He wanted to snatch back his magic treasure.
If it weren’t for the fact that there were so many people around, he would have attacked Chen Feng already.
