Tiandou Empire!
Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, took the initiative to find Xu Sheng...
Xu Sheng was naturally somewhat surprised and asked softly, "Crown Prince, what business do you have with me?"
Because there were soldiers from the Tiandou Empire around, to avoid exposing the latter's identity, Xue Qinghe continued to be addressed!
Xue Qinghe nodded slightly and asked without changing her expression, "Xu Sheng, today, I want to make a trip to Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Would you like to come with me?"
Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow, "Heaven Dou Royal Academy? With your talent, you shouldn't need any instruction from the academy teachers, right?"
Recklessly following the advice of academy teachers to cultivate could likely be more harmful than beneficial!
Xue Qinghe did not deny it and answered truthfully, "That's right, I want to meet Xue Beng in person!"
However, to prevent any misunderstanding, she added, "Of course, don't get me wrong, I have no plans to lay a hand on him right now!"
Xu Sheng pondered and said, "Xue Beng... Right now, he has yet to notice anything odd about you; he doesn't even know what restraint is. Even if you meet him, it would be meaningless!"
Xue Qinghe nodded to show she understood, "I know, but, only by seeing each other frequently can we deepen our relationship, right?!"
She, wanted to start controlling Xue Beng from now on, even to the point of having him under her thumb!
That way, future trouble could be avoided.
Xu Sheng also understood her intention in an instant, his dark eyes slightly narrowing, "If that's the case, it could affect the future!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe looked directly into Xu Sheng's eyes and said word by word, "Xu Sheng, even if you might have come from the future, there isn't anything that's absolute!"
"Otherwise, you wouldn't appear before me!"
Xu Sheng didn't say anything more, "I understand. In that case, I'll accompany you to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, as serving the Crown Prince is my duty after all!"
At that moment, Xue Qinghe finally showed a smile. However, due to the emotional fluctuation, she nearly caused the Spirit Skull to malfunction and promptly restrained herself again...
She said indifferently, "Then let's go. Heaven Dou Royal Academy is some distance away from the imperial palace!"
...
Since Xue Qinghe was the Crown Prince, to ensure his safety, no less than a dozen soldiers of the Tiandou Empire followed behind as soon as he left the imperial palace...
At that moment, their gazes unanimously focused on Xu Sheng standing by Xue Qinghe's side, filled with thick confusion and doubt...
One of the soldiers couldn't help but say, "I mean, this kid looks pretty ordinary, why would the Crown Prince take notice of him?"
Another soldier shook his head, "Not sure, maybe he just genuinely wants to help the kid out."
"After all, when he first entered the Tiandou Empire Palace, his clothes were tattered and torn..."
"Impossible, if that were true, why would the Crown Prince always have this kid by his side?"
"Exactly, I think there's something we don't know!"
"Hush... since even His Majesty the Emperor has not sent this guy away, that means he has tacitly consented! Let's just pretend we know nothing!"
Xu Sheng, with his strong spiritual power, naturally heard these remarks. He glanced sideways at the soldiers and thought to himself, "Sure enough, I knew accompanying Ren Xue would lead to such discussions among the Sky Dou Empire Soldiers!"
But Xue Qinghe said with absolute calm, "Xu Sheng, do you really care what they say?"
It seemed if Xu Sheng nodded, she would immediately order those soldiers to shut up!
However, Xu Sheng simply waved his hand indifferently, "No matter, let them talk. It won't cost me any flesh!"
All these matters are of no consequence!
The one I truly need to worry about is still the Abyssal Emperor who has also come to the past!
It was only then that Xue Qinghe turned his gaze forward, "Hmm, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is just ahead!"
Vaguely visible in front of them was a colossal and splendid academy. Its vast expanse was completely beyond the naked eye's ability to measure, yet it was unmatched by any other academy within the Tiandou Empire!
Engraved on the plaque above the academy's main gate were six flamboyant characters...
Heaven Dou Royal Academy!!
Xu Sheng took a good look and gave a fair assessment, "So this is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? Not bad, although it's my first time seeing it, it's pretty much what I had imagined!"
His words somewhat surprised Xue Qinghe...
Even though he was from the future and even knew of his own identity and some future events, yet he said it was his first time seeing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
It was a bit too abnormal!
Xu Sheng naturally felt her gaze and casually said, "There's no need for such surprise, although I come from the future, but... indeed, I have not seen the true face of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"
Xue Qinghe reluctantly accepted this reason, "I see!"
When they arrived in front of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the guards immediately recognized their identities...
They all bowed deeply, respectfully saying, "We greet the Crown Prince!!"
Xue Qinghe spoke softly, "Gentlemen, please rise."
Only then did the guards stand up...
The lead guard was the first to ask, "Crown Prince, may I inquire what brings you to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
Although Xue Qinghe was the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, he had never enrolled in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
By rights, there was no need for him to come here!
Xue Qinghe just showed a faint smile, "What, can't I come to have a look?"
The soldier, upon hearing this, couldn't help but tremble and hurriedly denied, "No... certainly not, the Crown Prince can of course come!"
Then, turning to the other guards, he scolded, "What are you all standing around for? Didn't you see the Crown Prince has come? Open the academy gates at once!"
No sooner had he spoken than the guards quickly responded, swiftly opening the gates of the academy...
Only then did they say, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, please..."
Xue Qinghe nodded and was about to enter the academy with the others when...
unexpectedly, he was stopped...
It was the same guard; he looked strained as he faced the numerous soldiers behind him, cautiously stating, "Although the Crown Prince may enter, the academy has rules..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but Xue Qinghe quickly understood...
He immediately said to those soldiers, "You, wait outside the academy for the time being!"
These soldiers naturally did not dare to oppose him and walked to the side, "Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Then, Xue Qinghe turned to Xu Sheng, "Xu Sheng, come with me!"
Thus, the two of them encountered no further hindrances and smoothly entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy...
