The divine beast recognized its master, and the dragon girl, destined to kill him, went to the spiri

Mei Rao's mind paused, a hint of annoyance flashed across her eyes. She didn't know what she was thinking about, but then she put on a smile.

"Alright, since it was Chiyun Academy's fault, then this elder naturally admits the mistake on behalf of Chiyun Academy. The winning reward for our freshman competition, the rare divine-level herb, can be given to Young Master Qingye for free. How do you do that?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples of Scarlet Cloud Academy looked at each other, their eyes full of jealousy, but because of Mei Rao's words, they said nothing in the end. They just looked at the disciples of Cangkong Academy with fierce eyes, especially at the legendary Qing Ye who suddenly appeared and ruined their plans.

Ye Wanqing paid no attention to those unwarranted looks. She just looked at Elder Mu Qing who suddenly appeared and protected her, her eyes flashing slightly.

Especially seeing his vaguely familiar mask, Ye Wanqing lowered her eyes, hiding the unclear emotions in them, "Thank you, Elder Mu Qing, for your help."

Mu Qing's expression remained unchanged. In response to Ye Wanqing's thanks, he simply raised his hand slightly. "I am an external elder specially invited by Cang Qiong Academy. Naturally, I will not tolerate outsiders attacking Cang Qiong Academy's disciples, especially since you are one of the academy's top players."

After saying that, Mu Qing raised her leg and walked towards Li Heng who was not far away. From beginning to end, her eyes were filled with a distant look, as if she had never seen Ye Wanqing before.

Mei Rao, who had already left the competition arena, looked at the still unconscious Lin Hai and cursed him inwardly, "Useless waste!" It seemed she had to report to the master first and ask for instructions on the next step.

Mei Rao gave the disciples behind her a hint with her eyes, indicating that they should take the useless Lin Hai away, and then disappeared from the spot in a flash.

On the other side, in the wing room of Cangqiong Academy

"Master, Master, you are finally back, you are finally back. I was so scared."

Looking at Jiang Xu, who seemed to be about to cry but couldn't, Ye Wanqing's eyes flashed with disdain. The feather in her hand transformed into a folding fan and placed it against Jiang Xu's chest. "Be quiet, and stay away from me."

"Wow, Master, how could you treat your disciple like this? Look, my tears have formed golden beads. Doesn't this express my deep concern for you?"

During this period of time, Jiang Xu has been able to master the conversion of spiritual power and mermaid power. As the mermaid power in his body becomes more profound, the mermaid blood in his body becomes more abundant, and he has gradually acquired mermaid characteristics, such as tears turning into pearls.

Ye Wanqing's lips curled slightly. "Jiang Xu, now that your mermaid powers have increased, if you shed tears in front of others and are caught and used as a test subject, don't blame me for not saving you."

Jiang Xu raised the corners of his lips, "Hehe, no way, I've mastered turning my tears into pearls. They only become pearls when I want them to. We're in front of Master, aren't we? These few golden pearls are a celebration of your safe return."

"Okay, stop being so frivolous and get down to business. What did you find?"

When Ye Wanqing was still at Cang Qiong Academy, in order to prevent other incidents from happening, she split the source of divine power in her dragon vein and fused it into a ball for Jiang Xu, asking him to pay more attention to it, especially when he was at Chiyun Academy.

When it came to business, Jiang Xu immediately put away his cynical smile and suddenly closed the folding fan in his hand.

"Master, just as you expected, I discovered something amiss when I arrived at Scarlet Cloud Academy. Initially, the source of divine power remained stable until we encountered a desolate mountain behind the competition arena. The divine power source ball within the space began to vibrate."

"The barren back mountain? But that's the one northeast of the competition stage?"

After receiving Jiang Xu's affirmative response, Ye Wanqing narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes full of coldness. You know, when she just rushed here, she also passed by the back mountain, but she didn't sense anything unusual.

"Anything else?" Ye Wanqing suddenly thought of something, a strange look flashing in her eyes. "During your time at Scarlet Cloud Academy, have you discovered any strange people or things, such as that charming and charming Scarlet Cloud Academy elder?"

Jiang Xu paused and shook his head. "It's always been the Red Cloud Academy's dean who's handled this. That Mei Rao elder only showed up today, and..."

Jiang Xu suddenly paused, looking a little embarrassed, as if he couldn't speak. Ye Wanqing, who was standing beside him, noticed Jiang Xu's strangeness and raised an eyebrow, motioning for him to continue, "And what?"

Jiang Xu choked, his cheeks flushing instantly. But after seeing Ye Wanqing's eyes, he swallowed hard, his expression full of grievance. "And she came right up to me and teased me the moment she arrived. She even said she wanted me to be her twenty-eighth male concubine."

"Puchi, hahahahahaha, I can't take it anymore, the twenty-eighth male favorite, hahahaha, why is my cousin so miserable!"

At this moment, Hai Li in the space couldn't suppress the smile in his heart and laughed out loud. Jiang Xu, who was standing next to him, had a blood connection with Hai Li, so he naturally knew that he was laughing at him.

Ye Wanqing, unsure of what to think, curled her lips slightly, crossed her arms, and wore a teasing expression. "That Meirao elder, dressed in a red gown, danced gracefully, full of charm and stunning beauty. She's also the Grand Elder of Scarlet Cloud Academy, and you also love wearing red. You're a perfect match. You're truly blessed."

"Oh, my Master, please don't mention it. I am your disciple. And she even said that we are both wearing red clothes and can get married and enter the bridal chamber right away. Master, do you know that I am almost shocked?"

Ye Wanqing suddenly opened the folding fan in her hand, her eyes flickering with a strange light. "Oh? So anxious? This seems to be true love without a doubt."

"Master, please don't. It would be impolite to continue."

"Okay, enough joking around, take out your mermaid tears and let me see them."

Although Jiang Xu didn't understand what Ye Wanqing meant, he still followed her instructions and summoned the mermaid tears in his body. As soon as the mermaid tears came into contact with the outside world, they sparkled with dazzling light, lively and beautiful.

Ye Wanqing quietly channeled her divine power into her hands, and as if sensing something, she curled the corners of her lips slightly as she carefully played with the mermaid's tears.

At this moment, a ray of sunlight happened to shine in from the window and fell on Ye Wanqing's face, making her already lively and beautiful face even more bright and charming.

Under the sunlight, the mermaid's tears glowed even brighter, and the man and the treasure were particularly well-matched at this moment.

Jiang Xu's eyes flickered slightly, hiding the amazement in his eyes, "Master, do you like mermaid tears? Mermaid tears are also quite beneficial to Master's cultivation. How about I give them to you as a gift?"

Hai Li, who was inside the space, seemed to receive some strange guidance from her mind and appeared outside the space in a flash. "Cousin, if you need mermaid tears to help you practice, you can give them to mermaids. Now is the critical time for you to convert your spiritual power into mermaid tears, and mermaid tears are absolutely indispensable."

Feng Yin, who was inside the space, couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands, and looked at Qing Yu beside him with a slightly sympathetic look, "Qing Yu, has he always been this stupid?"

Seeing Qingyu silent, Fengyin patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay, you have sisters to accompany you."

Ye Wanqing handed the Mermaid Tears back to Jiang Xu with a strange look on her face, "What do I need your Mermaid Tears for?"

He then looked at Jiang Xu, "That great elder isn't just interested in you. To be more precise, it's the mermaid tears in your hand, and also the essence of your mermaid clan."
