Chapter 597: Chapter 597: Seeking Refuge! Great Xia Academy!

This time, almost everyone present turned their gaze over.

The first to appear at the exit of the pagoda was a woman wearing a water-blue dress, her face fair and beautiful.

However, her cultivation surprised most of those present.

It wasn’t that her cultivation was too high; on the contrary, it was precisely because her cultivation was too low, at only the Divinity Transformation Realm, which made many wonder how she managed to reach the third floor of the tower with such cultivation.

That’s right, the woman who appeared was none other than Shui Biyun, who had separated from Zhu Fei earlier.

As soon as Shui Biyun appeared in the plaza, she immediately felt the different atmosphere and subconsciously looked up to see Xia Chongyun, who was curiously looking in her direction from not too far away.

Xia Chongyun seemed to realize something as well and couldn’t help but smile and nod slightly to Shui Biyun.

Then he turned to speak to Yan Xiu beside him. Understanding the situation, Yan Xiu immediately came to Shui Biyun’s side, smiling and saying to her,

"Miss, if I’m not mistaken, the token you used to enter the pagoda should have turned green by now, right? May I have a look?"

After a slight pause, Yan Xiu continued, "Additionally, His Highness has invited you to join him; I hope you will accompany me there."

Shui Biyun had not expected that she would be granted an audience with the Crown Prince of the Great Xia as soon as she stepped out of the Multi-treasure Xuantower; her heart was filled with joy and trepidation.

At the same time, she finally understood that the token given to them to enter the Multi-treasure Xuantower was indeed the primary proof of whether they had truly reached the third floor.

Thinking of this, Shui Biyun took out the token, now turned green, and handed it to Yan Xiu: "Senior Yan, this is the token I used to enter the Multi-treasure Xuantower."

As she spoke, Shui Biyun seemed to remember something else and once again took out a hexagonal item from her body, offering it to Yan Xiu,

"Senior Yan, this is the Hollow Jade. I wonder if I can now join the Great Xia Academy, as mentioned by the Crown Prince previously?"

Seeing that Shui Biyun actually took out the Hollow Jade, not only was Yan Xiu slightly startled, but even the rest of the people present momentarily sharpened their gaze.

Especially Hong She, the Fourth Elder of the Fire Cloud Sword Sect who was in charge of leading the team this time; his expression turned exceptionally ugly.

He knew that if Shui Biyun really joined the Great Xia Academy, it would become nearly impossible for their Fire Cloud Sword Sect to find Shui Biyun or even trouble her sect in the future.

"Hehe, Miss, given this opportunity, I can decide on your behalf that from now on, you are a disciple of our Great Xia Academy."

After his initial surprise, Yan Xiu quickly regained his composure.

After giving Shui Biyun a deep look, he made a welcoming gesture and smiled, "His Highness is waiting for us. Please, Miss."

After finishing his words, Yan Xiu led the way, guiding Shui Biyun towards where Xia Chongyun was.

And at that moment, the teleportation light at the entrance of the Multi-treasure Xuantower lit up again.

One after another, Ji Xuanyue, Mo You, the Third Prince Xia Chongxuan, and finally Zhu Fei, walked out of the exit of the Multi-treasure Xuantower.

However, when the crowd saw Zhu Fei and the others emerge, and the exit of the Multi-treasure Xuantower closed without anyone else coming out, some people’s expressions immediately turned very ugly.

Among them, Chu Longtian, the Wind God Valley Master, and the members of the Fire Cloud Sword Sect were the most prominent.

And the gaze of the Wind God Valley Master was fixed dead on Zhu Fei, with a killing intent so palpable, any discerning person could see it.

"Hehe, Brother Zhu Fei, this time, it looks like you’re in for quite the trouble. Do you have any special plans in mind?"

Just then, Ji Xuanyue’s voice transmission suddenly fell upon Zhu Fei’s ears.

Zhu Fei’s eyebrows raised slightly. Although he knew that after coming out of the Multi-treasure Xuantower, he would face some rather thorny troubles.

Especially concerning Wind God Valley, since his initial rift with Ao Feng, his subordinates must know something, and would likely have informed the higher-ups of Wind God Valley.

But what Zhu Fei did not expect was that the people in the square now, along with the surrounding oppressive and tense atmosphere, made him instinctively feel an air of foreboding.

Now, with Ji Xuanyue suddenly sending him a voice transmission, he was momentarily unable to grasp her intentions, unclear about what she was really "selling" with her cryptic message.

"Hehe, Brother Zhu Fei, if you can trust Xuanyue, then follow me next. You should be aware, with so many significant figures here, even if you want to leave now, I’m afraid it won’t be easy."

Once Ji Xuanyue ended her transmission, her figure promptly headed towards Xia Chongyun and Xia Chongxuan.

Seeing Ji Xuanyue’s actions, Zhu Fei’s expression immediately stiffened.

He finally understood what Ji Xuanyue was planning to do. If he wasn’t mistaken, Ji Xuanyue wanted to use the Hollow Jade to join the Great Xia Academy.

Because Zhu Fei had noticed a middle-aged man dressed in white and blue attire, not far from them, staring intensely and somberly at Ji Xuanyue.

Zhu Fei guessed that the middle-aged man was most likely Yan Xu’s master.

And in line with the Bright Moon Sect’s traditional style, Ji Xuanyue’s actions were probably more about seeking protection from the Great Xia Academy.

Otherwise, if Ji Xuanyue remained within the Bright Moon Sect, her safety would truly be uncertain.

Having understood all this, Zhu Fei also formulated his plans.

No matter what, he had to avoid retaliation from others, and looking at the current situation, the only force capable of doing so was perhaps the Great Xia Dynasty.

After all, the Great Xia Dynasty had made a promise earlier on, allowing those who reached the third level of the tower and possessed the Hollow Jade to join the Great Xia Academy.

Zhu Fei believed that, given the Great Xia Dynasty’s status today, its word would not fail—even if he had incurred the wrath of many, as long as he did not cross the bottom line of their imperial family, there should be no trouble.

With that in mind, Zhu Fei glanced at Ji Xuanyue’s graceful figure ahead of him, the corners of his mouth curving into a faint smile.

He then disregarded the gazes of the others present and followed closely behind Ji Xuanyue, moving towards Xia Chongyun and Xia Chongxuan.

"Brother Zhu, what is this...?"

Seeing Zhu Fei and Ji Xuanyue approaching, Xia Chongxuan was the first to react.

He looked at the two, first with a hint of confusion in his eyes, and then with surprise, said, "Brother Zhu, are you two coming over because you wish to join our Great Xia Academy?"
