Zhuzi bit her lips and firmly said, "Master, I must go out for a trip and ask for your permission."

"You …"

Anger flashed across Shui Ani's eyes. He suppressed it and asked in a deep voice, "Are you going to find that guy Lin City?"

Bamboo Fork shook her head and said, "No. Master, I do have other things to do. "

He then said, "Ziquan, Master can tell that you and that guy called Lin City have feelings for each other, and Master is not trying to stop you. It's just that you just became a disciple, and you still have a lot of things to do, and you have to pick up some things, so no matter how anxious you are, you can't go out today."

"But …"

"Master has promised you that after today, Master will give you one day to find Lin Cheng." The anise did not wait for the bamboo to speak before speaking again.

Zhu Zifu was stunned, as he found this hard to believe. He then asked happily, "Master, is what you said true?"

"You little girl, is there a need for Master to lie to you?"

Zhu Ziyang heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Master, thank you for understanding me."

"You girl, for a brat, you actually dare to go against your master? If I don't agree to your request, I see that I can't keep you as my disciple, right?" Shui Ani said with a hint of anger.

"Master …"

Bamboo stick stuck out her tongue and blushed, but she didn't know what to say.

In fact, from the moment she left with the fennel, Zhui Ziquan had already made up her mind. If Shuihan was going to stop her from going with Lin City, she would rather leave the academy.

Although Bamboo Fork was only seventeen years old, she was extremely intelligent. It was natural for him to be able to tell that the water anise did not like Lin City. If Lin City also passed the examination and joined the Eastern Region Academy, it wouldn't be a big deal. But now that Lin City didn't pass the examination and had to leave the Eastern Region Academy after the examination deadline, it wouldn't be easy for her to meet with Lin City again.

So, Zhu Zifu made up her mind. Although increasing her strength was extremely important to her, if she were to separate from Lin City and become a stranger, she would not agree to it no matter what.

The reason why she wanted to leave this place was to find Lin City and prove her determination.

However, she had not expected that Shui Ani would be so open-minded as to agree to her request. Moreover, he did not seem to oppose her engagement with Lin City. She could not help but feel relieved.

"Girl, Master also came here at your age, so she naturally understands the relationship between you and Lin Cheng."

However, there was a gentle smile on his face as he said, "However, you should be clear that your aptitude is extraordinary, and that the boy called Lin City is only a mediocre person. I believe that the two of you are destined to be unable to reach the end, and I'm sure that Lin City is aware of this as well. If my guess is correct, even if you go and look for him, he will definitely take the initiative to leave you."

Zhu Ziyang's face couldn't help but change, but soon after, she shook her head and firmly said, "Master, although I haven't known Lin City for long, I can tell that he definitely wouldn't do such a thing."

Thinking of that little thief, Bamboo Fork couldn't help but wrinkle her nose. That little thief definitely wouldn't feel inferior like her master said. That guy was really cocky.

"Master did not say that Lin Cheng would feel inferior and think that he is not worthy of you, but if he really has feelings for you, then he would take the initiative to leave you."

Seeing the smile on Zhuzi's face, Shui Ani's eyes became even more sinister.

As long as nothing goes wrong, it is very likely that you will step onto the path of immortality in the future, or even become a supreme expert. If Lin Cheng is really acting for your own good, then he will take the initiative to leave. Otherwise, if he is with you, it will only implicate you, and it might even ruin your path.

Zhu Zifu shook his head slightly but did not say anything else.

She firmly believed in her heart that Lin City would absolutely not harm her.

Moreover, she had never thought of stepping into the Immortal Path, much less becoming a Giant. She only wanted to step into the Pill Sea Realm and investigate that matter. After that, she would be together with Lin Cheng and that would be enough.

However, she could not tell Shui Ang about this. Although they were Master and disciple, they were still a little restrained in front of Shui Ani. She knew very well that Shui Ani would not be happy if she knew she was so unambitious.

Thus, Zhu Zifu buried this plan in his heart and did not speak of it.

She only thought that when she found Lin City tomorrow, she would have to explain everything to him so that he would know her determination.

If it was before, Zhu Zifu would definitely be embarrassed to speak out against him. However, the situation now was different. Not only had she joined the East Continent Academy, she had even taken an elder as her master. However, Lin City's failure to pass the examination made her quite flustered.

She knew that it would not be easy to raise her strength in one day. She would be cultivating in the East Continent Academy for a long time, but she did not know where she should go to the Lin City.

She decided to find an opportunity to talk about the matter of Lin City being an alchemist. She hoped that Lin City would be able to join the East Continent Academy.

She believed that as long as Shui Ani was willing to give Lin City a chance to prove himself, Lin City would definitely be able to join the East Continent Academy.

Takeuchi Mikiko did not notice the coldness in Shui Ani's eyes, which was hidden deep in her warm smile.

Lin City left the Inner Academy.

The murderous look in Shui Yi's eyes made him realize that this woman wanted to kill him.

Lin City had no fear in his heart, but he would not foolishly send himself to his death. Furthermore, he had already seen that Bamboo Bamboo Hill had acknowledged the water anise as her master, so he had nothing to worry about.

Although Shui Ani was just an ant that Lin City could kill at will, Lin City had to admit that Shui Ang's power was indeed terrifying. He had already stepped into the rank of a cultivator in the Danhai Realm. For warriors, this was a qualitative leap; countless people would never be able to cross this natural moat in their entire lives!

Bamboo Shoot worshiped the fennel as her teacher, and could only imagine how much attention Shui Ani placed on her. One could imagine how much bamboo shoot would grow in the future.

The stronger the killing intent of the water anise towards him, the more it showed that the natural talent of the bamboo stick was extraordinary!

Therefore, Lin Cheng was not worried that the fennel would do anything bad to the bamboo. However, he had one more thing to do before he left.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Lin Cheng frowned slightly. He felt a palpitation in his heart, as if a poisonous snake was eyeing him from behind.

Lin City immediately realized that there was someone monitoring him from behind!

He was shocked in his heart, but he did not turn his head. In fact, his footsteps did not even change. It was as if he did not notice anything as he continued to walk forward.

When he arrived at the outer courtyard and saw the examination spots that were filled with people, his heart skipped a beat. He immediately pretended to be enjoying the show as he quickly walked over and squeezed into the crowd. Only then did he pretend to be enjoying the show.

He immediately noticed that not far behind him, a middle-aged servant was staring at him with a pair of ice-cold eyes.

Lin Cheng's heart sank, the servant's eyes were extremely sharp and fierce. Although Lin Cheng had only glanced at him once, and the two of them had not exchanged gazes, he could tell that this servant's strength was definitely not low. From the light in his eyes, he was probably at least an expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm.

The East Region Academy was truly worthy of being called the greatest academy in the Eastern Region. Even a servant had such strength!

Lin Cheng quickly thought to himself. He didn't know why this servant had set his eyes on him, and judging from his sharp eyes, he clearly had quite a bit of enmity towards him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have felt as if he was being eyed by a poisonous snake.

Ani!

Lin City immediately thought of Zhu Ziquan's master, Patriarch Seven, Shui Ang. In the East State Academy, she was the only one who had a reason to harm him.

"I didn't expect him to arrive so fast!"

Lin Cheng coldly laughed in his heart as he thought to himself, "Seems like the talent of this lass is even higher than I imagined!"

Lin Cheng didn't know if Lin City should laugh or cry because of Zhouzi's astonishing talent for making Shui Ani impatiently attack him.

Zhu Ziyang's talent was astonishing, and he had received special attention from Shui Ani. Lin Cheng was naturally happy for her in his heart.

However, because of Zhuangzi's extraordinary talent, Shui Ani was actually going to make a move on him and treat him as an ant. This made Lin Cheng unhappy.

When the servant saw Lin City squeezed into the crowd and disappeared, he was stunned for a moment before hurriedly stepping forward. However, when he arrived in front of the crowd, he had already disappeared.

He had not expected that he could lose a small warrior at the level of the Manchu Body Realm. Thinking of the mission given to him by the Seventh Elder, he gritted his teeth and rushed to the gate of the academy. The academy did not allow outsiders to be present at night, unless they were distinguished guests of the academy.

Therefore, Lin City would definitely leave. As long as he waited at the main gate, he would definitely be able to block it.

At the same time.

Lin Cheng had long since left the examination area. Moreover, he did not intend to leave now. Instead, he directly turned around and headed for the Inner Academy.

He was going to find bamboo again.

He already knew that if he didn't find Bamboo Shoot as soon as possible, he probably wouldn't have another chance in the future. Shuijian had already started attacking him.

"Little thief!"

Seeing Lin City, Zhu Zi's eyes suddenly brightened, her face was filled with an unconcealable joy. She quickly ran over, "Little thief, didn't you leave? Why did you come here?"

When Lin Cheng heard the term 'thief', he immediately glared at her. Seeing her joyful expression, he couldn't help but laugh, "Little girl, I'm here to tell you that I need to temporarily leave for a period of time."

"Little thief, where are you going?"

Zhu Ziyang asked anxiously, "Don't worry, I'll go back and beg Master to give you another chance, so long as you can prove that you're an alchemist …"

Lin Cheng shook his head, "It's useless. "Little girl, since the test for the East Continent Academy uses Spiritual Aura as the standard, it means that if the Spiritual Aura affinity is too low, the East Region Academy has no choice."
