"Ah?" Li Qinghe and the rest of the people present were stunned.
Li Xuanqi was also stunned. "What is this descendant of my ancestor trying to do?"
"Humph!" At this time, Xu Que snorted and said sternly, "Although I am now the Deputy Dean, I don't want you to treat my son, Xu Que, differently. I don't agree with the extravagant and wasteful welcome ceremony. We should abhor these behaviors!
Since we're opening an academy, we should focus on teaching and educating people. We shouldn't discriminate. We should walk into the crowd … Bah, no, we should walk into the students, blend in with them, and get along with them. We should adhere to the teaching philosophy of fairness, openness, and fairness. We shouldn't divide students into different classes. As the saying goes, it takes ten years to grow trees, and a hundred years to cultivate people. Don't you understand this? "
All of a sudden, the whole area fell into a dead silence.
Xu Que's series of preaching completely confused the people present.
Although they were all sophisticated people who had been cultivating for countless years, they didn't understand what Xu Que had said. At this moment, they felt that Xu Que was a great teacher.
"Li Xuanqi, you used to be a disciple of the Heaven Palace Sect. Don't you know the rules of the Heaven Palace Sect?" At this time, Xu Que looked at Li Xuanqi.
Li Xuanqi was stunned. "I was just a disciple of the Outer Yard!"
"Yes, Brother Xu is right. Did you hear that clearly?" Li Xuanqi said as he looked at Li Qinghe and the others.
"Yes!" Li Qinghe replied helplessly.
However, the people present also began to think carefully and found that what Xu Que had said was reasonable.
Nowadays, most of the resources of the Heaven Palace Academy were used by their families. The rest of the disciples basically relied on the resources of the sects behind them to cultivate. So basically, there were no drawbacks.
However, this would also cause some disciples from poor families to cultivate slowly because of the lack of resources, which would be a waste of their excellent qualifications.
If the Heaven Palace Sect had used the rules mentioned by Elder Xu, it was no wonder that the Heaven Palace Sect had been so powerful. It turned out that this was one of the reasons!
Everyone nodded in understanding, and a trace of respect welled up in their hearts.
They were relieved to see this side of Elder Xu. After all, he was doing this for the good of the Heaven Palace Academy. Moreover, he had set an example and wouldn't allow the Heaven Palace Academy to treat his son differently. This was very convincing.
"Don't worry, Elder Xu. We understand!" Li Qinghe nodded with a smile.
"Mm, it's good that you understand!" Xu Que nodded with satisfaction. At the same time, he added, "But I also understand your intention. When he comes, although you can't extravagantly hold a welcoming ceremony, I won't object to you giving him some Celestial Artifacts or elixirs. Moreover, I will remember the gifts you give, and when the time comes, I will announce it to the whole academy and read it aloud to express my gratitude!"
"Ah?" Everyone's eyes widened.
Gifts?
You said you don't want a welcoming ceremony, but you actually want to accept a gift?
"What 'ah'? Let me warn you, don't give him anything too precious. Just give him some small gifts. The meaning of the gift is more important. You should understand this principle! "Xu Que stared at them and said righteously.
Hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that he just wanted to give them some small gifts. That was good enough!
"Alas, I am still worried that you will misunderstand him. If you really give him some precious gifts, it will be embarrassing!
Really, believe me, it will be OK! Do you think I will make things difficult for you in the academy, poison your elixir bottles, or throw hidden weapons at you when you are practicing, just because your gifts are not precious enough? No, it doesn't exist! Don't worry, I am absolutely not that kind of person! "
Xu Que was hinting wildly.
Everyone in the area was covered in a cold sweat, and they looked at Li Xuanqi with a sad expression.
"Grandmaster, are you sure you want to let this person be the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy?"
At this moment, Li Xuanqi also had a headache. He suddenly regretted his decision and started to ponder whether it was a wrong decision.
However, when he saw the two souls of the ancestors standing behind Xu Que, he erased his wavering thoughts.
He could ignore what Xu Que had done in the past, and he could tolerate Xu Que in front of his descendants. However, all of this was based on the two powerful souls. Without these two souls, he wouldn't have talked so much nonsense with Xu Que. He would have killed Xu Que with his palm!
Moreover, Xu Que hadn't done anything out of line. At most, he looked a little unruly. But even if he was unruly, what the Heaven Palace Academy really needed was not him, but the souls of the two ancestors!
…..
At last, in front of the sad eyes of the onlookers, Xu Que, Buttface, Duan Jiude, and the rest of the people walked out of the tomb arrogantly.
Now that he had become the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy, Xu Que didn't have any scruples. So, he walked out of the tomb through the main gate, and he also wanted to see Jiang Hongyan on the way.
Li Qinghe also took out a Deputy Dean's badge and gave it to him so that he could travel freely in the Heaven Palace Academy. As for announcing to the world that the Heaven Palace Academy had a new Deputy Dean, it could only be done after the ancestral worship ceremony.
Xu Que also thought he could become the new master of the Heaven Palace Academy. With these two powerful souls, nobody in this world would dare to provoke the Act-Tough Saint.
However, when they stepped out of the ancestral tomb, the two souls started to evaporate, and the souls started to dissipate at a speed visible to their bodies.
"Holy sh * t! Little brat, let's go back!" Buttface shouted in surprise as he jumped back into the ancestral tomb, dragging Xu Que with him.
The two souls followed them into the ancestral tomb in a daze. Then, their bodies stopped dissipating and went back to normal.
Xu Que furrowed his eyebrows and fell silent.
He knew what was going on in this situation, which was similar to Li Xuanqi's situation. These two souls couldn't leave the ancestral tomb.
To some extent, these two souls, including Li Xuanqi, were not tolerated by the Way of Heaven. Their lifespans had been exhausted, and they should have died. However, they had survived by violating the Rules of the Way of Heaven. The ancestral tomb might have some concealment function, which covered most of the Rules of the Way of Heaven, so they could survive in good condition.
Once they left the ancestral tomb, the more powerful Rules of the Way of Heaven would descend, and the ashes would return to the ashes. Those that shouldn't be left would disappear with the wind.
"Sh * t! I didn't expect they couldn't go out! What should we do now?" Buttface said angrily.
He was also jealous of such a powerful bodyguard. If he couldn't take them out, how could he do whatever he wanted?
"Actually, I think it's not a bad thing to leave them here. After all, Li Xuanqi is also here, which is equivalent to a hostage in our hands. The Heaven Palace Academy won't dare to do anything to us!" Duan Jiude said as he touched his chin.
Xu Que shook his head with a wry smile, "Even if you expect them to stay here, they must be willing to stay here!"
Exactly, it was not a bad thing to leave the two souls in the ancestral tomb if they had no other choice.
However, the problem was that these two souls had regarded him as their own child. Wherever he went, they would follow him. When he stepped out of the ancestral tomb, the two souls started to dissipate immediately. However, they didn't care about that and just stood beside him in a daze.
Therefore, if he wanted them to stay here, he would have to stay here himself, or he could drive Xuanyuan Wanrong's soul out of the palace and ask her to stay here.
On the one hand, it was impossible for him to stay here. On the other hand, he didn't have the ability to get Xuanyuan Wanrong's soul out of the palace. After all, that soul had fallen into a deep sleep and would only be awakened when the main body arrived.
"Little brat, why don't you stay here? I can go out and do whatever I want on your behalf!" Buttface said as he looked at Xu Que and winked at him.
"Get lost!" Xu Que gave a concise response.
"Actually …" At this time, Ryu Jingning, who was standing beside Xu Que thoughtfully, said suddenly, "It's not impossible to take them out safely!"
