335: Dean! I am Lin Xiu!

Mang Tianchi's figure paused slightly, deciding to go and take a look.

Being able to gather so much Black Demon Lightning, his strength shouldn't be too weak; perhaps the two of them could team up.

He had stayed in the Thunder Pool for many years, originally planning to continue doing so, but unfortunately, external circumstances didn't allow it.

Mang Tianchi had already heard that in recent years, a remarkable young man had emerged from his academy.

He punched the Wind and Thunder Pavilion and kicked the Ice River Valley.

Recently, it seemed he had even destroyed the Xuanming Sect and even taken the Tianming Sect as his junior.

That was fine.

That kid had offended the Hall of Souls quite deeply!

"If I wasn't worried about this kid being dealt with by the Hall of Souls, I would have stayed in this Thunder Pool for at least a few more years."

Thinking about going out to clean up a child's mess, Mang Tianchi also felt a bit indignant.

But sitting idly by was not an option.

After all, he was a student of his own academy, and it was rare for such a Heaven-Defying student to appear after so many years. It wouldn't be appropriate for him, as the dean, not to dote on him.

"It just so happens that the Ancient World is also about to open soon. At that time, I'll see this kid's strength. If it's suitable, I'll take him to the Ancient World to boost my reputation, which will make my special return to the academy to support him worthwhile."

As thoughts flashed through Mang Tianchi's mind, his figure had already arrived not far from the Black Demon Lightning.

He glanced inside.

"My friend..."

Looking at the figure enveloped by the Black Demon Lightning, Mang Tianchi paused as soon as he spoke, "Hmm? A Ninth-Grade Dou Zun? Are you kidding me? Are young people nowadays so bold? Do they dare to provoke the Black Demon Lightning in the Void Thunder Pool with such strength?"

He had originally thought about teaming up and then snatching some Cultivation resources.

At this moment, Mang Tianchi had no such intention at all.

"Have I been in the Thunder Pool for too long, and the outside world has changed too quickly? Are young people nowadays so courageous?"

He murmured with a tsk-tsk.

He had thought that the little guy from the academy was already incredibly audacious, but he didn't expect there to be someone even more reckless than him.

He didn't know which force this kid's hothead belonged to.

Looking at the dense Black Demon Lightning, Mang Tianchi didn't dare to easily extend a helping hand. If anything went wrong, he might even suffer serious injuries.

Turning to leave, a voice full of surprise came from within the thunder.

Upon hearing it, Mang Tianchi couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

"Dean! Dean! I'm Lin Xiu! Don't leave, help me!"

As if soaking in the Thunder Pool, Lin Xiu saw a white-haired old man appear. After a moment of surprise, hope immediately appeared in his eyes.

At this time.

At this place.

The old man who could appear in the Thunder Pool was none other than his own Dean!

Great, he was saved!

Mang Tianchi turned around again, carefully observing the young man in the Thunder Pool, his face twitching twice, "You are Lin Xiu?!"

"It's me, Dean. Please help me out first; I'm about to explode from the Black Demon Lightning."

Lin Xiu's expression was pained.

"You mischievous brat, if you don't give me a proper reason later, I'll definitely confine you in the academy for three years!"

Mang Tianchi's mood was complex.

One second he was lamenting whose Disciple this was, daring to bathe in the Black Demon Lightning Pool with the strength of a Nine-Star Dou Zun.

The next second, he was slapped in the face.

Damn it, it was his own!

"It's a good thing I came over to take a look, otherwise you would definitely have died here today."

Mang Tianchi scolded him verbally, but his hands were not slow at all, pushing a palm towards the Black Demon Lightning vortex.

The seemingly light palm contained astonishing power.

The rotation of the vortex suddenly paused, splitting open a gap.

Lin Xiu, who was originally enveloped by countless thunders, finally had a chance to move.

He let out a long breath, "Thank you, Dean."

Mang Tianchi was just about to remind him that the danger wasn't over yet.

After all, these Black Demon Lightnings were not easy to deal with; only by escaping their pursuit could he be truly safe.

However.

Before he could speak, he heard his student let out a low cry.

"Nine Thousand Thunder Movement!"

Black Demon Lightning burst from Lin Xiu's body, suddenly becoming illusory, and he fled into the distance.

His voice still lingered in the Void Realm, not yet dispersed.

But his figure had already disappeared.

Mang Tianchi was stunned, so fast?

Immediately after, he suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed abruptly.

Overwhelming Black Demon Lightning covered him.

Rushing out of the Void Thunder Pool in one breath, the lightning on Lin Xiu's body hid beneath his skin.

His entire body was covered in cracks, like a piece of porcelain that could shatter at any moment.

After stuffing a few Medicinal Pills into his mouth, Lin Xiu's condition slightly improved, and he turned to look in the direction of the Thunder Pool.

"Why hasn't the Dean come out yet? He should be fine; with his strength, the Black Demon Lightning definitely can't do anything to him."

A faint wisp of worry rose in Lin Xiu's eyes, but he quickly dismissed it.

"I was too careless this time. I thought I could use the Thunder Pool to improve my Cultivation, but I didn't expect to be surrounded by Black Demon Lightning and almost die."

Learning from his mistakes, Lin Xiu realized that his Physical Body was not yet invincible.

At least in this world, terrifying forces like thunder could still threaten him.

"You brat!"

Just after reflecting, Lin Xiu's back of the head was heavily slapped, and then he heard an angry scolding mixed with concern.

Mang Tianchi emerged from the Void Realm at some point, most of his hair singed black, and the ends were somewhat curled.

When he exhaled, smoke would even come out of his nostrils, mouth, and even the corners of his eyes.

Seeing Lin Xiu look over, Mang Tianchi raised his hand to strike.

Having stayed in the Thunder Pool for so many years, he had never been so disheveled!

Lin Xiu held his head, not dodging.

The strength gap was too large; he couldn't dodge even if he wanted to, and besides, he owed the Dean for his help just now.

"I finally understand why Su Qian kept urging me to return to the academy. You brat are truly bold!"

After venting for a while, Mang Tianchi finally stopped, then stared intently at Lin Xiu.

"Dean, how did the Grand Elder praise me?"

Lin Xiu asked curiously.

Mang Tianchi rolled his eyes, "Stop trying to flatter yourself. He's almost driven mad by you, kid. Do you know what's behind the Hall of Souls? You even dared to provoke them, and the kind that offends them to death!"

"I just knew I had you to back me up, didn't I?"

Lin Xiu said with a feigned innocent smile.

"Don't change the subject here. Tell me, why were you in this Thunder Pool? With so much Black Demon Lightning, you truly aren't afraid of death. Even I don't dare to touch it easily."

Mang Tianchi thought of being chased wildly by the Black Demon Lightning just now and couldn't help but slap Lin Xiu's back of the head again.

"I wanted to use the thunder for Body Tempering."

A rumble came from within Lin Xiu's body, and black lightning appeared, running across the surface of his skin.

Mang Tianchi pinched him and exclaimed in surprise, "You brat are truly resourceful. Looking at your Physical Body strength, even a Half-Saint's full-force attack wouldn't injure you after a few hits. Even a One-Star Dou Sheng would probably need two full-force attacks to seriously injure you."

Although he hadn't been in the academy for many years, he still had some understanding of certain things there.

Such a Body Tempering Fighting Skill certainly wasn't from the academy.

He had always heard Su Qian talk about Lin Xiu, and seeing him today, he had to admit that this young man was indeed a Genius.

Hmm... it's just that his courage was too great.

Damn it, a Nine-Star Dou Zun dared to provoke the Black Demon Lightning, and the key was that with so many of them, he still didn't die. Instead, his Physical Body strength improved.

Truly a monster.

"Oh, right, how did you recognize me just now?"

Mang Tianchi suddenly remembered.

"I saw you at the academy. I just felt it was a bit similar, so I tried calling out."

Lin Xiu said casually.

Mang Tianchi didn't suspect anything, patted his shoulder, "There are indeed good things deep within the Thunder Pool. Originally, I wanted to find someone to go with me, but your strength is too weak right now. Wait until you advance to Dou Sheng; then we'll come back."

Lin Xiu nodded.

He definitely didn't want to enter the Thunder Pool now. His Thunder Apertures were almost full, all with Black Demon Lightning.

"Let's go, back to the academy."

Mang Tianchi was about to take Lin Xiu away.
