Chapter 282: Hai Bodong Returns as the Ice Emperor Back to Jia Nan Academy
"Hai Bodong, from now on, you will be the Vice Leader of the Cai Lin Pavilion. You will oversee the entire Jia Ma Empire, the Chu Yun Empire... and all the forces within these three nations, including the Sky Serpent Mansion and the Poison Sect."
"It doesn't matter what kind of powerful experts join Cai Lin Pavilion in the future your position will remain unchanged!"
"…"
"Thank you, Guardian Elder!"
Han Feng and Hai Bodong both knelt on one knee, their voices filled with respect.
Hai Bodong's eyes were filled with tears his long years of servitude as the Slave King had finally paid off!
But… wait a minute…
...
Jia Ma Empire? Chu Yun Empire?
Those places aren't even under their control yet!
What the hell is he supposed to govern?!
Han Feng was getting real power, while Hai Bodong was just getting empty promises…
Was this just a trick to keep him loyal?!
"Hai Bodong!"
A cold yet alluring voice suddenly echoed in Hai Bodong's ears.
His body tensed up he immediately knew what this meant.
Medusa was about to remove his seal!
This seal had suppressed him for far too long…
Hai Bodong bowed slightly, and just as his eyes met Medusa's enchanting gaze…
A purple light flickered
The invisible barrier that had suppressed his power for decades vanished instantly!
Boom!
A terrifying surge of overwhelming Dou Qi erupted from within his body like a raging tsunami like a ferocious lion finally awakened from its slumber…
The powerful aura was so intense that a layer of ice crystals formed around the entire room.
"An Ice attribute Dou Qi… truly worthy of the title Ice Emperor!"
Han Feng couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Dou Ling Three Star… Six Star… Peak Dou Ling… Dou Wang!
In just a few seconds, Hai Bodong's cultivation shot up from Dou Ling to Dou Wang.
But it didn't stop there!
Five Star Dou Wang… Peak Dou Wang… Dou Huang!
Three Star Dou Huang… Five Star… Six Star… Seven Star… Eight Star!
Only when he stabilized at the Eight Star Dou Huang level did the terrifying aura finally dissipate.
This was his original strength from before Medusa had sealed him.
If Hai Bodong had tried to break the seal using medicinal pills or external help, at most he would have only regained Three Star Dou Ling strength.
After all, not all seals were the same and this was a seal placed by Medusa, the Queen of the Snake People herself!
Hai Bodong clenched his fists, feeling the boundless power coursing through his veins. His eyes glistened with emotion
The long lost feeling of true strength… it was finally back!
"Hahaha! I'm finally a Dou Huang again!"
Hai Bodong stepped forward, his aura fully restrained, and then respectfully bowed toward Medusa and Wu Tian.
"Hai Bodong thanks Medusa, thanks Guardian Elder!"
Wu Tian simply waved his hand.
"Hai Bodong, your strength has been suppressed for too long. Here take this Body Tempering Essence. After refining it, you should be able to break through again."
"Body Tempering Essence?!"
Han Feng, standing nearby, was completely shocked.
Wu Tian nodded casually and tossed a small vial to him.
"There's some extra take it. If you can refine it into a pill, even better."
Just as the two were about to kneel and give their thanks again, Wu Tian cut them off immediately.
"Enough. You two can get to know each other better later. This place is in your hands now we're heading back to Jia Nan Academy!"
Before Hai Bodong and Han Feng could even react, Wu Tian and Medusa vanished from sight…
Hai Bodong, who had just regained his strength, sighed as he glanced at Medusa's previous location.
In the past, he had been able to fight Medusa to a standstill…
But now?
She had left him in the dust.
She could vanish in an instant, while he still had to fly like a normal person.
His gaze shifted toward Han Feng.
Hai Bodong smiled "kindly".
This guy was a six star alchemist…
Hehehe…
Han Feng: Why do I suddenly feel so uneasy…?
…
After leaving Han Feng's estate, Wu Tian and Medusa quickly returned to Jia Nan Academy.
The Black Corner Region was in good hands Han Feng, along with nine other Dou Huangs, were stationed there.
Inside the academy, Su Qian and the two old Dou Zongs were in charge, along with Hu Qian.
Even Tian Huo Zun Zhe was present there was no safer place than this.
Now, the most important task was to begin the migration of the Snake People Tribe.
The Soul Hall was already on the move.
That meant Yun Shan from the Misty Cloud Sect had probably already broken through to Dou Zong!
If the Soul Hall couldn't find the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Jade, they might turn their rage toward the Jia Ma Empire instead.
And since Xiao Yan was nowhere to be found, it was only a matter of time before the Soul Hall started digging up the entire empire to find him!
Sigh… this Xiao Yan really knows how to cause trouble.
At this moment, no news about the destruction of the Xiao Clan had reached Jia Nan Academy yet.
But Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, and Xiao Ning as members of the Xiao Clan had the right to know the truth.
Xiao Yu was a member of the Sunfire Alliance, and also a good friend.
Just for the sake of her beautiful long legs, Wu Tian figured he should at least tell her…
"Creak "
The doors of the Sunfire Alliance's meeting hall slowly opened.
Familiar faces filled the room.
"Wu Tian gege! Medusa jiejie! You're back!"
The people inside the hall immediately stood up and welcomed them.
Among them, Xun'er, Hu Jia, and Han Yue all rushed forward excitedly.
Wu Tian and Medusa smiled warmly and exchanged a few words with them.
Then, Wu Tian's eyes landed on a familiar figure standing behind them.
That tall, elegant woman, with long, flawless legs and a delicate, peach colored face…
Her eyes darted away shyly, trying to avoid his gaze.
It was none other than Xiao Yu.
The last time he returned, there were too many people around, so he hadn't greeted her properly.
She must have felt disappointed back then.
But now…
Wu Tian hardened his heart and said coldly:
"The Xiao Clan has been destroyed."
"What?!"
Everyone in the hall froze.
They all knew the Xiao Clan was where Wu Tian and Xun'er had originally enrolled.
If such a clan had been wiped out…
Something big was happening.
Xiao Yu's expression turned ice cold in an instant.
If Wu Tian personally said her family was in trouble, then it had to be something serious.
Could it be… the Xiao Clan was completely annihilated?!
Then her parents…?!
No. No way!
Her face lost all color, her long legs wobbled, and she nearly collapsed.
Wu Tian swiftly caught her in his arms and gently reassured her.
"Don't worry. Your parents are safe they only suffered minor injuries."
"But… the Xiao Clan's Grand Elder, along with most of the clan members, are dead."
"Xiao Zhan was taken away, and Xiao Ding and Xiao Li barely escaped to Mo City."
"Xiao Ding is severely injured and has lost all his cultivation."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu's eyes filled with tears.
And then…
Like a broken dam, the tears poured out uncontrollably.
