Great Dragon Empire, Dragon City.
Long Aotian is enjoying breakfast in his residence.
A month ago, the Emperor of the Great Dragon Empire officially confird Long Aotian's position as Crown Prince, as the Fourth Prince, who once posed the greatest competition, temporarily yielded to him.
After becoming the official Crown Prince of the Great Dragon Empire, Long Aotian's status has significantly elevated from his previous identity as "Eldest Prince," granting him greater power.
Now, even when the Fourth Prince and others see Long Aotian, they must kneel to show respect.
The steward of the Prince Manor, Long Hao, hurriedly entered the dining room and stood beside Long Aotian, respectfully saying:
"Your Highness, we have found news about Yang Xiao."
Long Aotian was startled to hear this, putting down his utensils and turning to glance at Long Hao.
"Where is Yang Xiao now?"
"No one could have expected that Yang Xiao actually went to the Flying Leopard Empire and is currently a student at the Flying Leopard Academy."
"Oh, this kid actually went to the Flying Leopard Academy?"
Long Aotian expressed great surprise.
"Initially, we couldn't find any trace of Yang Xiao, but unexpectedly he caused a great disturbance at the Flying Leopard Academy, alarming the entire Flying Leopard Wenti City,
our informants in the Flying Leopard Empire relayed this information to the Royal Palace, and I happened to hear this at the palace because the na Yang Xiao was really jarring, which caught my attention,
I inquired carefully and found that the description of Yang Xiao closely matched the Yang Xiao we previously pursued, so I ca specifically to inform you."
"What kind of trouble did Yang Xiao cause at the Flying Leopard Academy to alarm the entire Flying Leopard Empire Capital?"
"Yang Xiao killed two sons of the Qin family, the first tycoon of the Flying Leopard Empire, within half a month, which infuriated the Qin Mansion, and the entire Empire Capital is rife with the news."
"Oh?"
Long Aotian's eyes brightened, then he laughed out loud:
"Yang Xiao, oh Yang Xiao, you're courting death, causing such a big ss, it seems I don't need to send people to hunt you down, the Qin family will finish you off."
For more than a month after Yang Xiao escaped, Long Aotian searched everywhere for him but couldn't find a single trace and eventually had to give up.
Fortunately, everything on Purple Origin Star is normal, and in more than half a year, no news of revolt from the barbarian tribes due to Yang Xiao has co.
Given the current situation, Yang Xiao hasn't returned to Purple Origin Star, and the barbarian tribes on the Resource Star couldn't ascertain Yang Xiao's situation.
The transformation of Purple Origin Star has mostly proceeded according to the blueprint Yang Xiao previously devised, everything is orderly, and several empires on Witch Star are gradually proposing to personally manage the mines, transferring them entirely to barbarian tribe managent.
With everything normal on Purple Origin Star, Long Aotian didn't pay much attention to Yang Xiao's affair, gradually forgetting him, but now unexpectedly he has erged with such explosive news.
Steward Long Hao said:
"Your Highness, the problem lies here."
"Hmm, what problem?"
"According to the information collected by our intelligence personnel, Yang Xiao killed the two sons of the Qin family in the arena challenge at Flying Leopard Academy. According to the academy's rules, Yang Xiao doesn't have to bear any responsibility and is even protected by the academy,
now the Qin family is infuriated but doesn't dare to openly offend the Flying Leopard Academy, so they can only send people covertly into the academy to assassinate Yang Xiao."
Long Aotian listened, slightly frowning,
"What's the situation now? Has Yang Xiao been killed by the Qin family?"
"No, reportedly the Qin family is already arranging experts to sneak into the academy to assassinate Yang Xiao."
Long Aotian pondered for a mont, then said:
"Do we have personnel at Flying Leopard Academy?"
"Yes, each year we send several youths to participate in tests at Flying Leopard Academy, entering it for cultivation. Currently, the oldest persons in Flying Leopard Academy from our side are a pair of brothers from ten years ago, both have reached Empire Middle Level."
"Send soone to contact our people and have them understand Yang Xiao's specific situation, and if there is an opportunity, have them discreetly take care of Yang Xiao,
this kid is a nace if left alone!"
"Yes, Prince, I will arrange it imdiately."
...
The first group of three assassins arranged by Qin Xiaotian have already passed the academy's test and officially entered Flying Leopard Academy.
...
Xiao Ling feels like she's going to lose her mind; she hasn't found Yang Xiao for ten consecutive days.
Initially, she relied solely on her own thoughts to find Yang Xiao, searching his dorm, library, and every place he frequented, especially the library, visiting it almost daily.
The library's first floor is now overcrowded, even at night there are lots of people.
Xiao Ling scans the entire library each ti but still fails to find Yang Xiao.
She then went to the second and third floors, still failing to find Yang Xiao.
Originally, she didn't want to find Director Zhu Peng; she didn't want her little affection to be known by everyone.
That day on the sports field, she rushed to the center, worrying about Yang Xiao's injury, which started people gossiping about their possible romance.
Xiao Ling realizes that despite usually appearing indifferent, she feels rather shy and embarrassed in such situations.
Xiao Ling hesitated for a long ti and eventually went to find Instructor Zhu Peng.
"Director, I wish to report a situation to you."
"Hmm, please speak."
"One of my students has gone missing."
"Ah? Such a thing happened?"
Zhu Peng was obviously surprised and looked eagerly at Xiao Ling.
"Who? Which student disappeared? Has anyone been sent to search? There won't be any accidents, right? The monsters in the mountains outside the academy are quite nurous lately, and they're not low-level, quite dangerous indeed."
"Yes, Yang Xiao!"
Xiao Ling deliberately acted as if she was relaxed.
Zhu Peng: "...."
The anxious and worried expression on Zhu Peng's face imdiately disappeared, and he also gave Xiao Ling a sideways glance, saying lightly:
"What, your little boyfriend disappeared, and now you're anxious?"
Xiao Ling blushed and muttered:
"Director Zhu, what are you talking about?"
Zhu Peng glanced at Xiao Ling, chuckled,
"Stop pretending. That day when Yang Xiao and Qin Xiaotian were sparring, everyone saw the two of you flaunting your love. There's an old saying that flaunting love leads to a quick demise. See, it ca true so quickly."
Xiao Ling: "@#￥%"
"Don't roll your eyes at . I heard you earned 1.2 billion Crystal Coins from gambling, planning to keep it all to yourself? Not treating your academy colleagues to a al to celebrate?"
"Okay, no problem, I'll treat you guys to three days of als, is that good?"
"Now that's more like it. Let make it clear, I want to order the most expensive ones."
"No problem, as long as it doesn't stuff you to death. Now you have to tell , where is Yang Xiao? Don't tell you don't know!"
"Yang Xiao is very safe now, you don't need to worry, and also, I suggest you don't look for Yang Xiao during this period."
"Why?"
"Think about it, if others find out you're Yang Xiao's girlfriend and the Qin family can't find him for revenge, would they take it out on his girlfriend instead?"
"Ah?!"
Xiao Ling yelled in surprise, isn't this an out-of-the-blue disaster?
I haven't even officially started my role as a girlfriend, and the threat has co first.
"Director Zhu, no matter what, you have to let see him first, otherwise my heart won't settle. I'll even treat you to two more als, ordering the most expensive ones, alright?"
Zhu Peng couldn't resist Xiao Ling's pleading, so he closed the office door and said in a low voice:
"The library."
"That's impossible, I've been looking there every day, and couldn't find him at all."
"Silly, would he co out in front of so many people? Who knows if there are any assassins mixed in the crowd wanting to kill him?
Just the matter of Yang Xiao killing the Qin brothers would get him killed ten tis over."
"You an, Yang Xiao only cos out at midnight?"
"I know he's in the library, but I don't know the specifics."
...
After ten o'clock in the evening, Xiao Ling ca to the library, carrying a food box.
At ten o'clock, the library still had many people.
As ti went on, by eleven o'clock, the number of students reduced significantly, and by midnight, almost all had left.
Xiao Ling looked up and saw only two or three people left in the large library.
Xiao Ling muttered to herself,
"Yang Xiao, you stinky guy, why aren't you coming out yet?"
At this point, Yang Xiao had already entered the library, but he walked to the very end of the bookshelf aisle, starting to organize books with his spiritual power.
After ten days of hard cultivation, Yang Xiao could now organize twenty books at the sa ti.
The speed at which Yang Xiao first cleared the shelves was not fast, and he got tired easily, often needing to take a Replenishing Essence Pill and a Big Blood Pill, resting for a while.
It took Yang Xiao two hours to gradually organize the books from the entrance of the library to a shelf near Xiao Ling.
By this ti, there were very few students in the library, most of the empty desk lights were turned off, except for two lights above Xiao Ling, which stood out prominently.
Yang Xiao couldn't help but look over and noticed soone actually sleeping on the desk.
Moreover, the figure under the lamp seed oddly familiar.
"Who is this?"
With curiosity and doubt, Yang Xiao walked up to Xiao Ling's desk and stood still.
Yang Xiao only needed to glance to confirm it was Xiao Ling.
Thinking how he hadn't said a word of goodbye to Xiao Ling after the duel, his heart felt a bit tender.
Yang Xiao hesitated for a mont, took out a piece of clothing from the space ring, and gently draped it over Xiao Ling.
Yang Xiao glanced at the food box on the desk.
"Damn, I'm so hungry, to eat or not to eat? Not eating would be a waste!"
Yang Xiao reached for the food box.
Suddenly, the sleeping Xiao Ling raised her hand and grabbed Yang Xiao's hand just as he was about to take the food box.
