I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1463: 1464: I Have a Godfather, Do You?
Chapter 1463: Chapter 1464: I Have a Godfather, Do You?
“There’s no need, the core disciple of the battlefield already has control. Whatever the elders of the academy desire, the disciples will comply.”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand, speaking casually with a smile.
“Cai Kun, the battlefield core is crucial, and you are only at the Transcendent Realm. How can you guard such a treasure alone? The elders are doing this for your own good. Hand it over to the sect, and maybe General Yu can protect you in the future!”
A True Disciple also spoke up.
Apart from Li Xiaobai, everyone present hoped that the battlefield core would be handed over to the sect, because that ant more opportunities for them to share the resources.
The academy would excavate and develop the battlefield resources and bring them back to the sect, where the True Disciples would be the first beneficiaries.
It’s known that most of the battlefield consists of mineral veins, with rare resources being extrely scarce. The elders did not covet too much; they instead reinvested the resources back into the academy to benefit the disciples, which is naturally a good thing for the academy cultivators!
“Indeed, Cai Kun, you must have a broader perspective and think more for the academy!”
“You must not wish to devour the entire battlefield resources out of personal greed. We all rely on the academy for survival. The stronger the academy, the more secure our place in life will be!”
“That’s right, don’t be an ungrateful wretch who forgets their roots after gaining benefits. Take a mont to think about who has nurtured you all these years!”
Other disciples joined in the commotion, hoping that Li Xiaobai would hand over the battlefield core. Whether they got it or not was another matter, but they couldn’t stand by and watch this guy gain all the benefits!
Li Xiaobai looked around, smiling, and said, “Since the academy has a need, the disciple is naturally willing to serve. My adoptive father is at a critical stage of alchemy and needs Emperor’s Blood. If anyone can contribute a few bottles, the battlefield core is irrelevant.”
“Cai Kun, everyone knows how Elder Fen Tian is burdened with nurous tasks. Don’t use him as a shield!”
“If you truly care for the academy, you should offer up the Invincible Seed. It cannot exert its power in your hands, but if controlled by an elder of the academy, another War God will rise. Young man, you must have a grander vision!”
Damo spoke lightly.
“Senior Brother, I am discussing important matters with the elders. It seems it’s not your place to speak here. Being aware of your position is crucial in life.”
Li Xiaobai said indifferently.
“What did you say?”
Damo’s expression turned fierce. In all his years at the academy, no one dared to speak to him like this. If not for the elders’ presence, he would not have let the other party off easily!
“What is your status, Senior Brother?”
“I am a True Disciple under Elder Huang!”
“That is the difference between us. I am the adopted son under Elder Fen Tian, a father-son relationship, while you are rely a disciple. With all due respect, everyone here is trash!”
Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back, with an arrogant expression, seemingly oblivious to the astonished faces around him.
Elder Fen Tian’s status in the academy has always been a mystery. Many elders secretly fear him, but he has never stepped out of Burn Heaven Peak. What kind of existence he truly is, few can say.
Indeed, the status of being an adopted son is more valuable, but who would be proud of rely recognizing a father? Watching Li Xiaobai’s smug face, many disciples were filled with anger.
“The battlefield core is indeed important. Rushing to a decision might be inappropriate. Why not let the dean hear him out and then consult Elder Fen Tian?”
From the seats of the elders, a voice as smooth as jade sounded, incredibly gentle.
Li Xiaobai looked up and saw that the Flower Senior Brother, who guarded the Peach Blossom Source Forest that day, was sitting upright in a corner, sipping wine without any trace of worldliness.
This guy turned out to be one of the elders as well, and he’s even speaking for him, likely due to the many rare seeds contributed in the past, earning a good impression from Flower Senior Brother.
“Peach Blossom Saint Lord speaks the truth. We were only first seeking this disciple’s opinion. Naturally, we will inform Elder Fen Tian beforehand. As such, let’s deliberate further on this matter!”
Elder Huang eased the situation, unsure of what exactly to test, yet his instinct told him Cai Kun was not simple. Throughout, this man showed neither complacency nor panic.
Such calmness is truly terrifying, sothing one can only develop through years of experience in the cultivation world!
“Indeed, today’s gathering is not to interrogate you. General Yu, however, obtained a top-notch Enlightennt Tea Tree from the Eleventh Battlefield; you all are in for a treat!”
“With the great victory at the Forty-Ninth Battlefield, I will grant you all a breakthrough opportunity. Know that the chance to make General Yu shed Emperor’s Blood is rare, so make the best of it!”
The dean observed coldly for a long ti before dropping this remark.
Beside him, General Yu imdiately took out a can of tea leaves, his face showing neither joy nor sorrow, revealing nothing of his thoughts.
“General Yu’s Enlightennt Tea Leaves?”
“Brought from the Eleventh Battlefield?”
“Then it must be a relic from ancient tis, an absolute treasure indeed!”
Cultivators began to stir, each displaying a look of fervor.
Enlightennt Tea Trees are not rare; disciples with so foundation often grow them. However, like all things, they vary in quality. The older they are, the stronger their effects. This tree from the Eleventh Battlefield likely endured endless ages, perhaps even touched by the aura of a supre being. Obtaining even one leaf practically guarantees a breakthrough.
“More Enlightennt Tea Leaves?”
Li Xiaobai didn’t feel much different. Everywhere he went, people served Enlightennt Tea Leaves.
Is it really that tasty?
He couldn’t figure out the appeal at all. “It’s not as good as soaking in Tangneng First-class with so Huazi,” he thought.
“This tea tree has formidable power. A whole cup is not sothing you can withstand. True Disciples take three drops, Inner Sect Disciples two, and Outer Disciples one. Do not overindulge, or it could endanger your life!”
General Yu said coldly.
Without any apparent action from him, a tea leaf floated from the tea can, moving without wind. In the void, a drop of sparkling, translucent water erged, gathering into a cluster enveloping the Enlightennt Tea Leaf. Only when the entire cluster turned a vibrant greenish-yellow was it distributed to each disciple.
The elders, however, were unrestrained, casually grabbing in the void, condensing the Enlightennt Tea Water into cups that flowed into their mouths.
Everyone closed their eyes to savor it; whether it was the effect of the Enlightennt Tea Leaves or sothing else, they sohow felt their comprehension was multiplying geotrically!
