Sending Medusa to School

"Tai Xu creates myriad apertures, spiritual charm nurtures the void. Nine Nether connects to the mysterious mansion, soul light illuminates the nine heavens..."

After cleaning the room, Chen Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed, reciting the Nine Nether Soul Scripture and carefully comprehending and cultivating.

As he recited it over and over, Chen Xiao became completely lost in himself, unconsciously immersing himself within.

If anyone were present, they would be surprised to find Chen Xiao in an extremely peculiar state at this moment.

He seemed to have entered an indescribable wondrous state. The invisible and intangible soul power, swirling around his body, was pulsating at a special frequency.

And within Chen Xiao's consciousness, he only felt that his thoughts were clearer than ever before, as if his comprehension had increased tenfold, even a hundredfold, in that instant.

In this state, he re-examined himself and immediately discovered that the flaws in the Dou Skills he cultivated, such as Mystic Ice Dragon Flight, were infinitely magnified in his eyes. His previous Ice and Fire Hypothesis now flowed like a spring, with various inspirations constantly emerging from his heart...

Time passed minute by minute, and the outside world turned from dark to light.

Cao Xi and the Fourth Elder had already brought back the Gold Silver Two Elders, but Chen Xiao still showed no sign of movement.

Waiting from early morning until noon, the Medusa Queen, eager to resolve her soul problem, could no longer sit still. She materialized in a burst of bright light, her face cold, and flashed into Chen Xiao's room.

However, when she saw Chen Xiao sitting motionless on the bed, as if lost in thought, a hint of surprise flashed across the Medusa Queen's beautiful face.

She had already seen that Chen Xiao was currently in a state of Sudden Enlightenment.

This state was something countless cultivators dreamed of, and some might not even experience it once in their entire lives.

Taking a deep breath, the Medusa Queen had no choice but to suppress the impatience in her heart and waved her hand to set up a Barrier.

As the saying goes, hindering someone's future is like killing their parents.

Even though she was anxious, she dared not disturb him rashly at this moment.

"One day, I'll only wait one day!"

Muttering to herself, the Medusa Queen gently sat down.

Two days later.

Chen Xiao, who had been sitting cross-legged on the bed, finally slowly returned to his senses, a hint of joy appearing on his brows.

Although he was still at the Nine Star Dou Wang level, he had gained immense benefits invisibly, such as...

As he was happily thinking, Chen Xiao suddenly felt a scorching gaze.

Looking up, he immediately saw the Medusa Queen sitting at the table, staring directly at him with an expressionless face.

She looked as if someone owed her money.

"Your Majesty, how long has it been?"

"Two and a half days!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiao immediately understood why this woman had such an expression.

"Sorry, I lost track of time. We'll set off today, right away!"

Hearing this, the Medusa Queen's expression finally softened. She gracefully rose and removed the Barrier, then went downstairs first to wait.

Chen Xiao followed closely behind. When he reached downstairs, he only saw Zi Yan and Cao Xi.

"Old Man Hai went to deliver messages to those forces in the Black-Corner Region. Sister Cao Ying and Sister Little Fairy Doctor are both cultivating," Zi Yan said, slumping onto a chair, noticing Chen Xiao's expression.

Beside her, four or five empty jade bottles were placed.

Since meeting Cao Ying, her meals had gotten better and better. She no longer had to worry about Pills every day.

In the past few days, she had even raided three forces, making a huge profit, so she didn't have to worry about medicinal ingredients either.

As a result, she only had one thing left to do every day: take medicine fiercely, consuming more in one day than she used to in ten.

At this rate, she would likely be able to advance soon.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly and looked at Cao Xi.

"Fourth Elder, we're going to Jia Nan Academy. Please keep an eye on things here. Also, let Little Fairy Doctor and the others know if they ask."

"Small matter, go and come back soon."

Cao Xi nodded in agreement.

...

Jia Nan Academy.

As soon as they entered the Inner Academy's airspace, Zi Yan immediately started chattering non-stop to Medusa Queen.

For her, there was no place more comfortable than here.

"Sister Medusa, that dark tower is the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower. The reason why the Inner Academy students can improve their strength so quickly is basically thanks to it, but Chen Xiao and I don't really like it."

"Over there is the accommodation area. I first met Chen Xiao there..."

Zi Yan babbled on and on, her little mouth unable to stop, giving Chen Xiao and Medusa Queen no chance to interrupt.

Until a figure appeared in front, stepping through the air.

"Dou Zong expert..."

Medusa Queen's eyes narrowed.

She had heard Zi Yan mention this Inner Courtyard Grand Elder, but she didn't know his specific strength level as a Dou Zong.

Now that they met in person, she could finally confirm.

This was a three-star Dou Zong!

His apparent strength was two minor realms higher than her Dou Qi.

"Old Man Su!"

"Grand Elder."

"Greetings, Grand Elder."

Watching Su Qian approach, the three of them greeted him individually.

Even Medusa Queen was very polite.

After all, she had something to ask for on this trip to Jia Nan Academy, so her attitude naturally had to be humble.

Su Qian cupped his fists in return, giving Zi Yan and Chen Xiao a questioning look.

Just now, he had sensed the arrival of a Dou Zong expert. If it weren't for the two extremely familiar auras accompanying them, he would have suspected that someone was coming to steal the Fallen Heart Flame.

"Old Man Su, this is Sister Medusa from the Jia Ma Empire. She's a friend of mine and Chen Xiao's! Sister Medusa had some problems with her body after using a secret technique to evolve. Now she has two souls inside her body..."

After much effort and occasional hand gestures, Zi Yan finally explained the situation.

Su Qian then understood, completely relaxing.

The problem arose from entering and exiting with a Heavenly Flame, and afterwards, the Heavenly Flame was refined by Chen Xiao's friend. This confirmed that Medusa Queen had no interest in the Heavenly Flame.

"So that's what happened. The Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower is very large; one more person doesn't make a difference, and one less person doesn't make a difference. It's just that the Inner Academy has no precedent for allowing outsiders into the tower..."

"Sister Medusa is Chen Xiao's and my... our person, not an outsider."

Zi Yan retorted, causing everyone to have black lines on their foreheads.

Chen Xiao pulled her back and said with a smile, "Don't rush, let Grand Elder finish."

Having interacted with Su Qian for so long, Chen Xiao also understood him very well.

This Grand Elder was not a stubborn person.

Just for Zi Yan's sake, it was unlikely that the Grand Elder would refuse this small request.

"The Inner Academy makes good connections. Since Your Majesty is interested, and you have Zi Yan and Chen Xiao to vouch for you, I can let you use Chen Xiao's Fire Crystal Card to enter the eighth floor of the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower to cultivate. However, I cannot guarantee whether the Fallen Heart Flame will be useful to Your Majesty."

"Thank you!"

Medusa Queen nodded in thanks.

Without further ado, led by Su Qian, the group arrived at the eighth floor of the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower.

Chen Xiao took out the Fire Crystal Card, found an empty cultivation room, taught Medusa Queen how to use it, and watched her close the cultivation room door before leaving with the Grand Elder and Zi Yan.

"Congratulations to Grand Elder for advancing further."

Su Qian chuckled and shook his head, saying, "I've been at Two-star Dou Zong for many years. This small improvement is nothing compared to you, including this Medusa Queen. Her potential is also greater than mine. It's good to have this help when you're traveling outside."

"Also, the reason I let her enter the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower today is partly to give you face, and partly related to that Fallen Heart Flame."

"In recent years, the frequency of the Fallen Heart Flame's riots has been increasing. I have a feeling that this beast might break through the seal in three to five years at most. Having a Dou Zong level combat power in the Inner Academy will make it easier to deal with when that day comes."

Listening to Su Qian's words, Zi Yan was a little confused.

She glanced at Su Qian, then at Chen Xiao.

"Chen Xiao, does Old Man Su mean that Sister Medusa will stay in the Inner Academy for three to five years?"

Chen Xiao was noncommittal, "At least half a year. I can be sure that the Fallen Heart Flame is indeed useful to her, but relying solely on the Heart Flame on the eighth floor, it will take more time for her to solve her soul problem. In the short term, we don't need to disturb her anymore. Let's get ready. Next, I'll take you treasure hunting!"
