Chapter 1206 Deputy Governor, Please Correct

Perhaps some individuals already knew the true identity of the Divine Fusion School's school head. However, 99% of the humans in the Imperial City had no idea about this at all.

After all, the special rules of the Imperial Academy caused the identities of the people inside to be protected.

Previously, very few people in the Grand Imperial Capital Region had heard of the organization 'Illuminate'. It was only when the incident in Fenghai County happened that its name spread throughout the entire human race like a storm.

After that, following the decree of the Human Emperor, a manhunt for Illuminate ensued, causing the name Illuminate to become widely recognized.

Hence, in the perception of the vast majority of cultivators, Illuminate came to represent chaos, evil, and disaster, especially with the blood performances of this organization, which were even more horrifying to those who were paying attention.

As the protagonist of the event in Fenghai County, the rumors surrounding Bai Xiaozhuo solidified his identity in the hearts of all living beings as a representative figure of Illuminate.

Hence, after Xu Qing's words rang out, it was as though thunder had exploded in the world, rumbling through space and echoing in all directions of the Imperial City.

"Illuminate?"

"How is this possible!"

"The Divine Fusion School's school head is Bai Xiaozhuo?"

The sound of commotion erupted uncontrollably from the mouths of various students within the academy, especially among those of the Divine Fusion School, causing intense reverberations in their minds.

They couldn't believe it, so their initial reaction was to consider the whole thing absurd. If it weren't for the momentum and status that Xu Qing had accumulated previously, along with the scene of the Emperor Sword slaying a prince, there would surely have been someone at this moment ready to voice their anger.

Nevertheless, Xu Qing's words still stirred up turmoil within the Divine Fusion School's students, while the faces beneath the masks of the upper echelons of the Divine Fusion School underwent various.

They didn't believe it either. Hence, gazes gathered from all directions and landed on the school head of the Divine Fusion School in the sky.

The Divine Fusion School's school head calmly looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing stood there and also looked at the school head.

"Back then, I paid my respects to you, Deputy Governor, for your kindness in giving lessons and clearing my doubts, bringing peace to my heart."

Xu Qing calmly spoke. It was a similar scene, a similar moment, with the same two people but different identities.

"It's the same as back then. Deputy Governor, we meet again."

"Illuminate cultivators disdain lying and emphasize on everything being reasonable."

"I said these words in Fenghai County, but you went against your conscience."

Xu Qing was calm and there were no emotions in his eyes.

The gaze of the Divine Fusion School's school head was deep. He felt complicated as he sighed, but didn't say a word.

Xu Qing shook his head.

"Deputy Governor, do you still remember what I said back then? If Divine Fusion's matter were your blood performance, then I still think it is quite disappointing."

"What's bad isn't just about the performance, it is about you as a person, going against your principles. You don't deserve to be called Illuminate."

"So, are you going to go against your heart again today?"

"Deputy Governor, please correct me."

Xu Qing's voice echoed.

The Divine Fusion School's school head closed his eyes and raised his right hand, placing it on his mask. After a pause, he slowly took it off, revealing his true appearance.

It was the Bai Xiaozhuo from Xu Qing's memories.

Numerous gazes instantly gathered. Countless people's hearts were in their throats and the entire Imperial Academy fell silent.

To cultivators, looks couldn't be used as a basis. The aura they gave off was the main basis for identification. However, the current Bai Xiaozhuo's aura was completely different from when he was in Fenghai County.

Therefore, he could actually refute.

However, Xu Qing's words were as sharp as back then.

"Xu Qing, we meet again."

Bai Xiaozhuo, who had taken off his mask, had a calm expression.

"I didn't disappoint you this time, right? I'm Bai Xiaozhuo, the Purple Green Kingdom's Fenghai County Governor, Bai Xiaozhuo!"

Bai Xiaozhuo's voice rang out. That calmness filled his entire person with an indescribable aura. It also stirred up a monstrous storm in the Imperial Capital.

All the students' hearts rumbled and their eyes revealed shock. As for the students of the Divine Fusion School, they trembled..

All the trust instantly collapsed after he personally admitted it. What followed was confusion, madness, and anger.

The school head of the Divine Fusion School was actually Illuminate, whom everyone wanted to kill!

It was Bai Xiaozhuo, who had brought the calamity to Fenghai County and caused countless humans to die!

The revelation brought by these pieces of information filled the hearts of the students in the academy with upheaval. As for the high-ranking members of the Divine Fusion School, their minds were tumultuous at this moment.

They couldn't believe it, nor were they willing to believe it. However, the truth was already in front of them.

An even greater storm erupted outside the Imperial Academy. The expressions of the various forces changed one after another. No matter what, at least on the surface, Illuminate and Bai Xiaozhuo couldn't exist in the world.

Hence, many auras locked onto him from all directions. The entire Imperial Academy was filled with an oppressive atmosphere.

Killing intent filled the air, bringing with it a coldness that was like the harsh winter.

The Principal didn't move, but his gaze was profound. With a wave of his hand, the Imperial Academy rumbled, and a protective array formation spread out from the Dao platform below, enveloping the surroundings and protecting all the students.

However, Bai Xiaozhuo didn't seem to care about these anymore. He looked at Xu Qing and his hoarse voice rang out.

"You stood up alone in Fenghai County."

"Today as well, you're the only one who stood up."

"Xu Qing, aren't you sad? Is such a humanity what you want?"

"Your Emperor Sword won't move against me. Don't you understand what it means?"

Xu Qing shook his head.

"Too complicated, I don't want to think about it."

"I only know that I stood up in Fenghai County because of an old man I respect very much. He died in battle but he's still alive in my heart."

"Regarding today's matter, Deputy Governor, you have misunderstood."

"I only stood up because I want you to die."

Xu Qing's tone was calm.

"It's that simple?" The Deputy Governor laughed and asked the same question as before.

"Do I need anything else?" Xu Qing replied the same way as before.

"I believed you would say a lot this time." The Deputy Governor smiled.

"I didn't last time, and I won't this time."

After Xu Qing finished speaking, he took a few steps back and returned to the white Dao platform of the Variant Immortal School. He then sat cross-legged.

He no longer cared about Bai Xiaozhuo who was in the air.

He had already done what he desired to do and revealed the latter's identity. Now, there was no need for him to act.

That was because in the face of righteousness, no matter what standpoint one had, one couldn't choose to ignore it. The Human Emperor would deal with the subsequent matters.

After all, this wasn't Fenghai County but the Imperial Capital.

This was indeed the case.

The Human Emperor lifted his head and his gaze landed on Bai Xiaozhuo. His dignified voice descended upon the world.

"Imperial Academy Principal, capture the fugitive, Bai Xiaozhuo!"

When the Principal listened this, his hunched body slowly straightened. His white hair turned black and the wrinkles on his face instantly disappeared. He transformed from an old man to a middle-aged man.

His body also emitted cracking sounds as he grew in size. The aura on his body erupted like a furnace, spreading out in waves. There were a thousand dao marks in his eyes and countless phantoms behind him. The sky changed color and an illusory world appeared on his left shoulder.

It was the Perfected Nihility Realm!

The imperial bloodline in him formed a golden dragon in the illusory world. The dragon rushed out and flew in the sky, letting out a roar at Bai Xiaozhuo.

The Principal took a step forward. With this step, the sky and earth seemed to have reversed. Countless rules and laws changed according to his wishes. Images of the sun, moon, and stars appeared as though the stars had moved.

Bai Xiaozhuo fell silent. He retracted his gaze from Xu Qing and observed at the sky. No one understood what he was thinking or looking at. The aura on his body also soared at this moment.

The anomalous substances spread out, and the divine sources rose, emitting the same battle prowess fluctuations as the Principal.

However, his combat strength didn't come from his cultivation base but from his divinity.

At that moment, he lifted his left hand and pressed down on the golden dragon. As he waved his right hand, the surrounding anomalous substances formed a divine image that moved toward the Principal.

A rumbling sound exploded in the sky.

The two sides clashed, causing the space of Imperial Academy to tremble, the sky to darken as if doomsday had arrived, and fierce winds swept in from all directions, howling wildly.

Every time they clashed, it was like heavenly thunder, resonating throughout.

It was a confrontation between the rules and divinity, a bombardment between laws and divine sources, and above all, a duel between immortal cultivation and divine cultivation.

Xu Qing calmly observed at everything.

Bai Xiaozhuo was even stronger than when he was in Fenghai County.

'He should be stronger than this. He hasn't showed his puppet technique yet and the core of the Divine Fusion hasn't been revealed.'

As Xu Qing muttered to himself, the sky swayed and a vast figure manifested. It was like the hand of a god blotted out the sky as it pressed down on the Principal.

The Principal was expressionless. The world on his left shoulder suddenly rose, emitting a resplendent and piercing light, overlapping with him, confronting the imposing force.

Amidst the deafening sound, Bai Xiaozhuo remained calm, waving his hand. Immediately, five vortexes appeared in the void behind him and five puppets walked out from within them.

It was impossible to tell if they were humans because their bodies were all pieced together from divine materials that emitted the power of the divine sources, causing the anomalous substances here to become denser again.

Each of them emanated fourth stage Nihility energy and illusory worlds materialized around them. However, they were dead worlds, and within these worlds, statues of different gods were erected.

After they appeared, they headed toward the Principal with killing intent.

However, as one of the important places in the Imperial Capital, the Imperial Academy naturally didn't have just one expert. In an instant, seven to eight figures teleported over from all directions.

These people were all the leaders of some schools. The moment they appeared and joined the battlefield, the battlefield became even chaotic.

Fortunately, the space in the Imperial Academy was still stable and the array formation's defense was powerful. Hence, the students here were fine but there were still some who were bleeding.

At the same time, in the projection of the palace in the sky, a Heavenly King turned his head and observed at the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor didn't say anything.

The Heavenly King retracted his gaze and continued to look at the battle, not making a move.

Xu Qing was also watching.
