"Tell me the whereabouts of your master and you can have the physique fitting for your body. A great deal, isn't it?" Jin Rou smiled, "I can guarantee you that the physique will be suitable and perfect for you so rest assure."
Teacher Fairy looked like she was having a hard time to decide. It was understandable since her master was on the line here. In the end, she gave in to temptation and said, "Alright, I can take you to her but I want the offense physique first."
"You have no right to negotiate with me. It will be up to me whether I give it to you first or last." Jin Rou said with a strong tone, "I'm the one offering you something that will greatly benefit you."
Teacher Fairy didn't speak further. She had no rebuttal regarding this as the other party was right. In both ends of the the stick, her end would benefit greater if Jin Rou was speaking the truth.
"Now, we have a lot of time to spare. So how about you take me to her?" Jin Rou smiled. He's available and didn't mind meeting the fairy who Han Li had met a long time ago.
Teacher Fairy bit her lower lip and took out a pearl. It was the treasure that could open a portal connecting to her master. It only had two uses and she already used it once in the past. Thus, after using it now, it'd dissipate.
"Whoosh!" And expectedly, a portal with white and gray color appeared. It looked like a large house door but it was very ancient.
Jin Rou didn't doubt the credibility of the door and immediately entered it. He knew it was the right door leading to the monarch thus he didn't hesitate to enter it.
And just like that, the pearl had disappeared to the void completely dissipating in the world.

In a secret chamber of the academy where only one ancestor had one access, there were two people sitting across each other. One was the Headmaster Lanx and the other was a very old man, someone who excluded an ancient and death aura.
The old man was wearing a simple robe that you wouldn't know he had the highest status in the academy. A heavy sword was beside him as it was his partner for a long time now.
Sword Ancestor, it was his dao title. Being one of the strongest Imperial Lords in the current era. Even Dao Monarchs had to think twice before offending this existence. Not to mention, he was the right man of the legendary Sword Dao Monarch.
"It seems that it's truly His Majesty Primordial." Sword Ancestor spoke with a grim tone. Headmaster Lanx had reported everything that transpired although he was watching silently. The ancestor's voice was shaking with joy as he said, "Our academy has yet to be forsaken by the heavens."
The timing was too perfect to be a mere coincidence. After all, the academy was about to face a great calamity but then, Primordial Emperor suddenly appeared in their turf. If this wasn't a blessing, he didn't know what was.
Just who was Primordial Emperor? He was crowned as the strongest by many people. They call him savior and mass murderer at the same time. But the person involved himself didn't care about the names they brand him as. Nevertheless, just the name Primordial Emperor would deter enemies from attacking someone under his protection. Remember, Han Li protected the world for countless of years that even Dao Monarchs would cower in fear when they face him.
It'd be a good idea to spread the news of the emperor being here. However, knowing Han Li's personality, he wouldn't like it and might even leave the academy without hesitation. Take note, he no longer had a fateful connection with the academy thus it's none of his business if it goes down the drain.
"Are you certain that it's him, Ancestor?" Headmaster Lanx was getting excited. It was a person who created many legends and miracles in the world of Nine Heavens! And to think, he managed to meet a guy of that level? It's simply amazing.
"I cannot be mistaken. At the very least, I am 80% certain." Sword Ancestor said. On his level, it's easy to deduce information regarding the movements of a person. Primordial taught him this himself, "But we cannot let others know this, even as rumors or else those old folks would be too afraid to come out and attack us."
Primordial Emperor had already stated that he'd be staying here for a while. Naturally, he was indicating that he'd help the academy if it's necessary. After all, if it's really Primordial Emperor, Dao Sword Academy was something under his protection so how could he let it fall? Or at the very least, that's what Sword Ancestor was thinking.
"So what are we going to do, Ancestor?" Headmaster Lanx. With Primordial here, his tense shoulders relaxed. All this time, he was too stressed regarding the future attack of the hiding old existences. But now, he could relax now. Of course, it didn't mean that they'd be fully dependent on the emperor.
"We have to wait, of course. His Majesty didn't want being disturbed unless it's necessary. Furthermore, he knows what he's doing so there's no need for us to meet and talk to him." Sword Ancestor said, "He has a unique personality and even the master had a hard time dealing with it when His Majesty Primordial decided to take out the master for a trip."
The master he was talking about was none other than Sword Dao Monarch. The monarch was one of the most brilliant monarchs of all time but in front of Han Li, he's only a mere junior waiting for orders. Sword Ancestor couldn't help but be taken back to those time as memories flashed in his old mind.
"Will Dao Monarchs really appear according to the prophecy?" Headmaster Lanx said. If monarchs appeared during the attack, the eyes of many people would turn towards them.. It'd be a great boost of prestige if they appear and turned dead afterwards.
