Elder Xuan's expression was solemn as he asked, "What exactly do you want? Do you think this isn't enough? "
"Of course not."
The Academy Patriarch said, "I will let the Qiankun Academy replace the Divine Firmament Palace and unify the Divine Firmament Celestial Realm. In the future, I will unify the Nine Clouds!"
Elder Xuan's expression was calm when he heard this. He didn't seem surprised.
"Even if you unify the Nine Clouds, I'm afraid you won't stop. You will definitely find an opportunity to flatten the Pure Land of Bliss and the Demon Domain and make the Celestial Realm under your control."
Elder Xuan looked at the Academy Patriarch and sighed softly.
"How ambitious!"
Su Zimo was secretly shocked.
Although the Qiankun Academy was a Heaven-grade faction, there were many Heaven-grade factions in the entire Nine Clouds Celestial Realm. The Qiankun Academy was nothing.
Not to mention unifying the Celestial Realm, it would be extremely difficult for the Qiankun Academy to replace the Divine Firmament Palace.
"What's wrong?"
The Academy Patriarch said, "That chaos is very likely to descend in this era. Only by unifying the Celestial Realm can we survive this chaos."
"That's just an excuse."
Elder Xuan shook his head and said, "You just want to take advantage of the chaos to become the Lord of the Celestial Realm."
That chaos?
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
Was the chaos that the Academy Patriarch mentioned the one that the Book Fairy Yun Zhu had mentioned to him before, the one that swept through the three thousand worlds?
And this chaos was very likely to involve a terrifying existence that spanned ten eras — the Demon Master!
Elder Xuan continued, "Even the Lord of the Celestial Realm might not be able to satisfy your ambition. If you have the chance, you might even want to become the Lord of the Ten Realms or the Lord of a Hundred Realms!"
The Academy Patriarch smiled faintly and didn't refute. It was as if he had tacitly agreed.
Elder Xuan sighed and said, "Master knows your ability and gave you the evaluation of 'flawless planning'. However, he also knows that your ambition is too great —"
"Don't mention that old thing to me!"
The Academy Patriarch suddenly interrupted Elder Xuan. He frowned slightly and shouted impatiently.
Su Zimo was a little surprised..
The Patriarch of the Academy had always been emotionally stable and full of wisdom, as if he had seen through everything in the world and was omniscient and omnipotent.
At this moment, the Academy Patriarch had lost his composure and was extremely disrespectful towards him and Elder Xuan's master.
Elder Xuan said, "You shouldn't be like this. He's not only our master, but also your father."
"Father?"
The Patriarch of the Academy sneered, "Is he worthy?"
Su Zimo was even more confused.
The Patriarch of the Academy seemed to hold a great grudge against his master, who was also his father!
Elder Xuan said, "Your mother was in the Witch World at that time. Back then, Master had already done his best to save you. Master couldn't do anything about your mother's death. "
Su Zimo was speechless.
He had just guessed that the Patriarch of the Academy might be a member of the Sorcerer Tribe.
Now, it seemed that he was only half right.
To be precise, this Patriarch of the Academy had a part of the Sorcerer Tribe's blood flowing in his veins!
"Why did you save me? To monitor me all the time? "
The Patriarch of the Academy's tone was cold as he said slowly, "That old thing has never treated me as his own. He has always treated me as an outsider and has always been wary of me!"
"What are you talking about?"
Elder Xuan had a complicated expression as he said in a deep voice, "Master has never married and only has you as his child. Why would he treat you as an outsider?"
"If he treated you as an outsider, why would he teach you and even pass the position of the Patriarch of the Academy to you?"
"Hahahaha …"
Hearing this, the Patriarch of the Academy's expression was a little gloomy as he let out a low laugh that made one's hair stand on end.
The Patriarch of the Academy said, "He did pass the position of the Patriarch to me, but he was worried! That's why he arranged for you to monitor me! "
"He always believed that those who weren't of our race would definitely have a different heart! Even if he died, he wanted you to monitor me! "
Elder Xuan was expressionless as he said, "Since the establishment of the Qiankun Academy, the Tenth Elder's legacy has always been hidden in the dark."
"The Tenth Elder's greatest function is to hide himself. When the Academy is destroyed, the Tenth Elder can escape alone and pass on the Academy's legacy."
Hearing this, Su Zimo came to a realization.
If he guessed correctly, Elder Xuan was the Tenth Elder of the Academy!
And the Tenth Elder's function was to ensure that the Academy's legacy would not be extinguished!
Besides the position of the Patriarch of the Academy, no one knew the identity of the Tenth Elder.
Even if there was a rebellion in the Academy and a calamity befell it, the Tenth Elder could still hide and plot a comeback.
Although the identity of the Tenth Elder of the Academy was a secret, his status in the Academy was not inferior to the Patriarch of the Academy.
That was why Elder Xuan spoke to the Patriarch of the Academy in such a tone in front of the Dao Heart Stairs.
"Haha."
The Patriarch of the Academy smiled and said, "Before you, the Tenth Elder was indeed only in charge of the Academy's legacy. But that old thing made you the Tenth Elder. Besides the Academy's legacy, the most important reason was to monitor me and keep me in check! "
Elder Xuan fell silent, as if he had silently agreed with the Patriarch of the Academy's words.
After a while, Elder Xuan said, "Master did remind me, but it's not because you're from another race. He's just worried that your ambition is too great and will bring a calamity to the Academy. "
"With me around, the Qiankun Academy can reach a height that has never been reached before!"
The Patriarch of the Academy said slowly, "Only I can lead the Qiankun Academy to become the only overlord of the Heaven World!"
Elder Xuan sighed and said, "But the Qiankun Academy has completely changed over the years."
"The Academy's disciples fight openly and secretly. You don't care about it and even secretly promote it, causing factions to form in the Academy. What benefits does this bring to the Academy?"
"You once explained that this kind of fighting will allow the Academy's disciples to grow faster. But you and I know that this is not your goal!"
"You let the Academy's disciples fight with each other. You're just using the method of raising venomous insects to nurture disciples. Even if such people eventually grow up, their temperaments will be completely twisted."
The Patriarch of the Academy didn't refute this.
The Patriarch of the Academy smiled and said, "What you said is only one of the reasons. My position in the Academy is unshakable by letting the people at the bottom fight with each other! This is politics! This is the human heart! "
"Now, the Nine Great Elders of the Academy have all submitted to me. Do you think you can keep me in check?"
"I schemed against you in this game of chess so that I can get rid of you!"
"Originally, I didn't intend to do it myself, considering that you and I are brothers. However, since you escaped a calamity on the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, I'll personally send you on your way today! "
Elder Xuan's expression was serious.
He knew that there would definitely be an end between the two of them today.
"This matter has nothing to do with him. You've removed his master-murdering curse and let him go."
Elder Xuan glanced at Su Zimo and said in a deep voice.
