Book 6: Chapter 31:2: The Prestigious Jixia Academy, Part 2

Chen Heng’s mother had been the Ji Clan’s most beloved youngest daughter—also the only daughter—so the degree they had doted on her...

Let’s put it this way. There were over ten males in that generation but only one female—the youngest. The degree to which they doted on her could easily be imagined. She was treated like she was fragile, like a delicate piece of candy that might melt in their mouths. Sadly, though, she ended up being snatched away by a pig from another clan.

To this day, Chen Heng could not understand how his father had walked out of the Ji Clan’s doors alive. Furthermore, his father rarely visited the Ji Clan.

Nevertheless, Chen Heng was the Ji Clan’s only nephew and was also cherished by all his maternal uncles. Otherwise, there would not be so many people from the Ji Clan sending him excellent cultivation techniques that could push him into becoming an immortal so he could switch his cultivation method after his parents died.

If it were before, Chen Heng would think his father had married above his status. However, after learning he had a transcender ancestor...

In fact, after Chen Heng’s parents died, he had been practically alone with no one to rely on. A maternal uncle had once offered to take him into the Ji Clan and have his family name changed to Ji. No one had objected to this idea. After all, half his bloodline did come from the Ji Clan. However, he had refused.

In hindsight, it was fortunate that Chen Heng had refused. Otherwise, when the Chen Clan ancestor returned to this world and discovered that most of his descendants were dead and that the only survivor had changed his family name...

Never mind, there was no need to think further. There was no guessing what that ancestor would have done.

Chen Heng felt his ancestor might even simply destroy the world with a slap if his ancestor got angry.

After rejecting joining the Ji Clan, the 14-year-old Chen Heng had returned to Vast Sea City, where his parents met.

“...” Cheng Lixue did not expect her junior brother to have such an impressive family background.

“Oh! Oh! Ah Heng, are you really going to Jixia Academy?”

“I don’t know. I’m not certain yet. Furthermore, even if I want to go, getting there is a problem.”

“Yeah. How to put it? I previously could not go because of that biased ancestor valuing only males and not females, so the Mo Clan’s slot went to a male in a cadet branch who was much less talented than me. However, this time...hasn’t my father already succeeded the clan head position?” Mo Qingtong spoke extremely cryptically, as Chen Heng’s master and senior sister, who had appeared out of nowhere, sat nearby. She was certain that these two had not existed before the world reset.

When mentioning the Mo Clan ancestor, Mo Qingtong couldn’t help becoming depressed. First, this Mo Clan ancestor had something to do with Chen Heng’s death before the world reset. Second, this ancestor was extremely biased against females.

Mo Qingtong was the successor of the main branch, a direct descendant, but only a daughter, so...

As one of the clans inheriting the Hundred Schools of Thought, the Mo Clan naturally had slots for Jixia Academy. However, it had been in decline over the past millennium, so it only received one slot.

Logically, this slot should have gone to Mo Qingtong. After all, she was the clan head’s only child. However, just look at how she ended up going to a mundane university with Chen Heng. The results were obvious.

“Master, what do you think?” Chen Heng turned his head and asked Fu Hua’s opinion.

“Me? It doesn’t matter to me. It does not matter where you go, as your ancestor will most likely send me there, too. That way, I can monitor you.”

Fu Hua raised a good point. Chen Heng’s ancestor made her his teacher not only to impart her experiences and knowledge but also to oversee and guide him. She was to prevent him from becoming proud because of his privileged status of having a transcender ancestor. If the two were too far apart, how could she achieve that goal?

How could the Chen Clan ancestor not have ways to get Fu Hua into Jixia Academy? Those who know would know.

Seeing that his master did not mind and the anticipation in Mo Qingtong’s eyes, Chen Heng was divided...

“Let me think of a way to bring Luo Li and Sirin into Jixia Academy too.”

“Ah Heng, why care about Luo Li? She is only a freshman in high school. Also, Sirin is just a second year in middle school. Bringing them would be inappropriate, right?”

Mo Qingtong mentioned nothing about the difficulty of bringing those two into Jixia Academy. Ever since she found out Chen Heng’s ancestor was a transcender and saw Chen Heng toying with the world consciousness, she no longer felt anything was impossible for him in this world.
