Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Escape from Heavenly Book Academy!

"Don’t turn off the lights, follow me!"

Once Lu Chen agreed, the old man of Heavenly Medicine immediately pushed the window open and leapt out!

Lu Chen closely followed him, using the cover of night and daring not to make a sound.

Eventually, they reached the inner courtyard wall!

The wall was nine feet high, not impossible to climb over, but doing so would cause a great commotion!

The old man of Heavenly Medicine pulled out a vial from his bosom, and said, "Watch closely, and make sure not to be discovered!"

Once he finished speaking, he opened the vial and poured its liquid at the corner of the wall!

Shortly after, the liquid corroded a small hole in the corner!

"Crawl out, I’ll follow you!" he urged immediately.

Lu Chen did as instructed, crawling out before waiting for the old man of Heavenly Medicine to follow.

"To make a long story short, after I tell you, I must go back!"

Lu Chen nodded, ready to listen to the old man speak about Zhao Chang’s matters.

Zhao Chang was his only son, with a decent talent for medicine, but had been expelled from the Heavenly Book Academy by him.

Actually, this was done to protect him.

Apart from him, no one knew where Zhao Chang had gone.

He asked Lu Chen to relay the reasons to Zhao Chang so that he would not hold a grudge and could marry and have children, continuing the Zhao Family bloodline.

As an exchange, he had helped Lu Chen to escape from the academy!

Lu Chen suddenly understood and simultaneously felt a surge of undercover resentment.

A senior who he almost completely trusted was also using him!

But on second thought,

were his parents also treated this way by the Heavenly Book Academy, leading to their falling out from the Academy?

"Xu Zhengde holds a grudge against you because you caused him to lose the reward he expected from Wu Chiren! The reason I chose to protect you with Li Mingru was actually for the reward too!"

"But the plan changed because... I discovered that there might be people from the Polar Treasure Meeting infiltrating the Heavenly Book Academy! Your Black Jiao Snake is connected to it."

"So, whether you stay in the Heavenly Book Academy or leave, we are destined not to receive the reward from the Immortal Sect! Lacking the reward is secondary; the important thing is that if the Immortal Sect gets angry, the Heavenly Book Academy might cease to exist!"

"Given the circumstances, I can only settle for the next best option... Zhao Chang is my only concern now, so I’ve made it the condition of our exchange! Lu Chen, do you understand?"

Lu Chen certainly understood, but at that moment, he was completely stunned.

He had no idea that there was so much to the Heavenly Book Academy; nor could he have imagined that the influence of the Polar Treasure Meeting was so powerful!

To impact the Heavenly Book Academy!

Then the Lu Family in Yuzhou City...

Must have been destroyed already, right?

No wonder he had been able to escape from the Polar Treasure Meeting for so long, much to Mu Xiao’s astonishment.

"Elderly Medicine, rest assured, I will return to Yuzhou City and relay your message to Doctor Zhao!"

He had lost his respect for the old man of Heavenly Medicine.

If there was any left, it was only because as a father, the old man was worthy.

"You better go now," the old man of Heavenly Medicine waved off, his face aging further, "If you don’t leave now, I’m afraid I might truly regret it!"

Lu Chen nodded, no longer hiding his strength, and infused spiritual power into his legs before sprinting into the night!

The old man of Heavenly Medicine also crawled back into the Heavenly Book Academy, sitting on the ground as if he had lost all his strength.

Before long, a furious voice came from somewhere inside the inner courtyard!

It was Li Mingru’s!

In the middle of it, Xu Zhengde’s voice could also be heard!

The old man of Heavenly Medicine couldn’t help but crack a smile, "Li Mingru won’t suspect me; he will definitely think Xu Zhengde is responsible... Maybe I should add fuel to the fire and confuse all the Polar Treasure Meeting spies!"

...

Stepping into the Tianyuan abyss, Xiao Hei also gradually woke up.

"Hiss!"

Realizing it was in an unknown location, it raised its snakehead.

Lu Chen, caught off guard, nearly stumbled and fell into the abyss.

"Can you not startle me like that?"

Lu Chen set Xiao Hei on the ground, grumbling as he spoke.

"Hiss hiss..."

Xiao Hei flicked its tongue, its vertical pupils shining with a sharp light.

It sensed something extremely exciting inside the Tianyuan abyss.

Spiritual Medicine or beasts.

"Alright, no rush. There’s a safe place for me down here, I’ll take you there first. I also want to hear you speak sooner rather than later, to spare myself this effort!"

Lu Chen patted Xiao Hei’s head, his mind filled with mixed feelings.

The Heavenly Book Academy where he always felt safe was also the Tianyuan abyss he always considered dangerous.

Life is unpredictable, he himself...

Was still too naive!
