The people shuddered but they bowed. "Yes, Your Highness!"

Prince Lin Bo Wang smiled.

…

At this time, the person in question, Lin Xiao, didn't realize that he was the topic of conversation for several people. He only felt glad that he no longer had to stay in that prison and could walk around freely. Most importantly, he was not the only one who had grown stronger over this period of time.

When they reached the dormitory, Lin Xiao suddenly stopped. In the corridor, a middle aged man stood not far from them. He looked in Lin Xiao's direction with helpless expression, a rare sight of a powerful cultivator.

"Elder Wang," Lin Xiao greeted with a smile.

Elder Wang shook his head lightly. He had already cleared up the trouble for Lin Xiao, but he still felt a bit indignant about that. This brat just created trouble here and there, and here he was, cleaning up the brat's ass.

"What's your plan now? Don't try to provoke some big people because you won't be able to withstand their wrath."

Lin Xiao laughed dryly. "What are you talking about, Elder Wang. I only want to take a mission after this."

"What mission?"

"Well, a long mission?"

Elder Wang narrowed his eyes. For some reason, he felt that he couldn't trust Lin Xiao with the brat's words. No matter what, Lin Xiao was someone who loved to create trouble and would certainly do that for a long period of time. 

"Did you provoke anyone on your way here?"

"Just prince Lin Hong?"

Elder Wang: "…"

Seeing Elder Wang exasperated look, Lin Xiao grinned and shrugged. "He's the one looking for trouble with me. I didn't do anything much aside from scaring him."

Besides, with Lin Xiao's current power, he didn't need to deal with Prince Lin Hong directly. It would be a waste of strength if he had to make a move personally. His next target would be Prince Lin Fei, who was standing at the high pedestal at this point of time. 

But of course, Lin Xiao wouldn't comfort him stupidly like what he did to Prince Lin Kai.

He still wanted to treasure his little life.

Elder Wang was so exasperated. He really wished that he could spank this annoying brat's buttocks for his troublemaking skill. Just a few minutes after he was released…. He had already provoked someone. Great! 

Not wanting to pry deeper, Elder Wang asked, "Did you learn new skill?"

"Yes. I learn some new skills."

"Good. Don't die during your mission and try to reach Golden Core Stage as fast as possible. The others wouldn't wait for you to grow strong."

Lin Xiao grinned. "Don't worry, Elder Wang. I won't show my weak side to those guys. Have a little trust in me."

"Alright. You can go."

Elder Wang still wanted to talk a bit more to Lin Xiao, but he knew that it would be very conspicuous for him to talk for an extended period of time. Some teachers did occasionally visit their students and tried to give them some help, but they would not go overboard. Most of those who could survive in this academy were all geniuses and these geniuses knew what they wanted.

Most importantly, most of them knew what path would be most suitable for them without the need for other interfering.

Thus, Elder Wang left soon afterwards.

"I didn't know that you have a teacher as your friend," Lu Jian remarked while glancing at Elder Wang's back with curiosity. 

Lin Xiao smiled. "He just know me because of some circumstances. Anyway. The mission that I want to take this time has to be located quite to the south."

"South? Why?"

"So that I can take a visit to the three sects after I'm done with the missions," Lin Xiao said in innocent tone. However, the others knew what he wanted because they had heard that both Sui Wenyan and Wenren Yu were former Taiyi Sect disciples.

While the two of them kept the fact a secret most of the time, Lu Jian was smart enough to connect the dots. Princess Lan Yi Hua also understood when she was learning history lesson while Xia Ye managed to figure out by watching them. As for Han Jiang, he recognized the move and felt that they were too good to self learn and concluded in that direction.

Fan Ling certainly knew their identities ever since she saw them because her family had vast amount of connection. But she simply didn't care since Fan Family didn't have much connection to the sects at the south.

"Well it's not that hard, but there are not many missions that can last long enough for you to take a visit there."

Lin Xiao shrugged. "I don't need to take a visit personally. I'm sure that Wenren Yu and Sui Wenyan would like to take their own visit there."

The two of them looked at Lin Xiao and nodded faintly. Ever since they knew the roles that these three sects played to make Taiyi Sect face its destruction, they had wanted to eliminate those sects too. However, they were not strong enough and naturally didn't want to create troubles for themselves before they were capable enough.

"Master, that's what I want to talk to you about." Wenren Yu didn't hesitate since they were the only ones in Lin Xiao's room. "I would like to take mission with Sui Wenyan separated from you and take our chance to take our own revenge."

Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows. 

Sui Wenyan smiled. "I already used the Spirit Stones and since I have reached Foundation Establishment, I got the chance to practice in a room concentrated with Qi. Right now, I should be close to Golden Core and within a year or two, I might make my breakthrough."

Hearing that, Fan Ling was stunned. She thought of herself as the one with the highest cultivation among them but it turned out, she was the second?
