Thinking of the hardships and sacrifices and the disproportionate rewards over the past thousands of years, Hua Guang's mood became a little heavier.
"Although I have a great reputation as the dean of Tianshen Academy, in fact I don't have much real power. Those aristocratic families will not allow me to stretch my hands too far."
During these years as the dean, she was actually not happy because what she did would more or less offend the interests of the five major families, causing them to be dissatisfied and warned.
However, because she was thorough and measured in her actions, she gradually accumulated some fame. As long as it was not too excessive, the five major aristocratic families were willing to turn a blind eye.
Xu Chunniang praised sincerely, "The dean is really amazing."
Hua Guo shook her head, feeling a little disappointed.
"You look up to me, but in fact I didn't do anything. Even when you were planning to resist the five major families, I didn't have the courage to stand up and face it with you."
She has spent a long period of time in the academy and has fallen in love with this peaceful life. Once she takes sides, all the hard-won gains today may be in vain.
This is a little bit of rights that she has worked hard for thousands of years to fight for the human race's casual cultivators. If she loses, the current balance of Tianshen Academy will definitely be broken and return to what it was thousands of years ago.
"I know the dean's choice and perseverance, so naturally I won't embarrass the dean. In fact, from the beginning, I planned to do this alone."
"But the opponent is five Mahayana sages, two of whom are monks in the middle stage of Mahayana, and there is an ancestor of the Qing family who recently broke through to the late stage of Mahayana!"
Hua Guang hesitated, trying to persuade Xu Chunniang not to be so impulsive, "You have just entered the Mahayana period, which is only sixty years old, and you are still very young. It is better to wait. I heard that the ancestor of the Meng family only has more than a thousand years left to live." Yuan."
Having said this, Hua Gu lowered her voice subconsciously, "When the ancestors of the Meng family run out of life, there will be only four venerables left in the aristocratic family. By then, we casual cultivators will be able to speak more."
Xu Chunniang shook her head. More than a thousand years is too long, and there is no guarantee that there will be no changes in the process.
What's more, there are so many elixirs and methods in the spiritual world that can increase lifespan, and they can easily increase lifespan by hundreds or even thousands of years.
The five major aristocratic families have been dominating the human race for a long enough time, and there is no need to wait another one or two thousand years.
And more importantly, the five major aristocratic families will not sit back and watch the rise of casual cultivators and the decline of aristocratic families.
They will definitely kill all the factors that are unfavorable to the family in the cradle before the life of the ancestors of the Meng family runs out.
After listening to Xu Chunniang's analysis, Hua Guang was silent for a long time and said in a harsh voice, "You are right, I was too naive."
She thought that in one or two thousand years, the ancestors of the Meng family would be exhausted and the family's strength would be weakened.
But why should the other party waste money with her?
The five great families have ruled the human race for hundreds of thousands of years, so naturally they would not make such an obvious mistake.
Hua Guang closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had already made a decision.
"I will go with you to face the five great families."
"Dean, you don't have to be like this. As you said, they are very strong. There is no need for you to involve Tianshen Academy because of me."
"Who said I am doing it because of you, can't I do it for the future of the human race?"
Hua Gu suddenly smiled, "But I think you are not weak in strength and have the courage to deal with the five major families. This confidence must be relied on, and even if we can't win, we may not be able to escape unscathed.
Do you remember that I mentioned before that there is another casual cultivator in the human race? "
Xu Chunniang understood what she meant, "What the dean means is to bring that person over to deal with the five aristocratic families together?"
"Exactly, there is strength in numbers. One more person always means more certainty."
Hua Guang nodded, with a smile in her eyes.
"Like us, he has been treated coldly and oppressed by aristocratic families. Moreover, he has a close relationship with me and can be considered a close friend. If I call him, he will definitely come to help us."
As she spoke, she took out a jade communication talisman and injected a spiritual thought into it.
Not long after, the messenger jade talisman emitted a soft light and brought a reply.
Hua Gu smiled, with a look of determination on her face, "He agreed. I said he would definitely help us, but he has something to do and can't leave now. He invited us to visit his cave in three months."
From Hua Guang's words, Xu Chunniang learned that the man's name was Qin Mo and he was an alchemist.
"The elixirs Qin Mo makes are very powerful. He can even use the power of faith and incense to make elixirs. In short, he is very powerful. You will understand when you meet him."
"The dean admires Fellow Daoist Qin so much, he must be something special."
Xu Chunniang smiled, she could still afford to wait for three months.
Originally, she planned to deal with the five major families and then deal with some of her own personal matters. Now it seems that she can deal with those personal matters first.
"I still have some things to deal with. After finishing those things, I will go back to Tianshen College and visit that fellow Daoist Qin with the dean."
"Don't worry. In the past few months, Mo Ya has acted rashly and impulsively."
Xu Chunniang knew that the dean was caring about her, so she agreed with a smile.
After bidding farewell to Hua Guang, she left the realm of the human race and went to the demon tribe adjacent to the human race.
When she returned to the spirit world, she discovered that Xiaobai and Xiao Juzi had come to the spirit world and now lived in the demon clan.
And based on their cultivation, it can be inferred that Xiaobai and Xiaojuzi have been in the spirit world for some time.
It's just that she happened not to be in the spirit world these years, otherwise she would have been reunited with them long ago.
Expectation, joy, and a touch of sadness arose in Xu Chunniang's heart.
We are finally reunited, but the time for reunion is destined to be short-lived.
She suppressed the sadness and melancholy in her heart, took one step forward, and reached the demon world.
Xiao Juzi and Xiao Bai didn't notice Xu Chunniang's arrival. They turned into human forms and still retained part of their animal bodies. Xu Chunniang recognized them at a glance.
Little Orange is not tall, but has a very round figure. She wears two cute little braids of Yuxue, and she exudes a delicate and fierce look inexplicably.
There is a long tiger tail behind her, shining with orange light.
In comparison, Xiaobai is a little thinner. His skin is very white, his face is small, and he has two small mouse ears hidden in his ears. He looks particularly well-behaved.
Xiao Juzi glared at Xiao Bai unhappily, "How are you considering what I told you before? Have you decided whether you want to leave the Monster Clan with me?"
Xiaobai hesitated, "The masters will not allow us to leave the Demon Clan. As you know, they have always been very strict with us. I am afraid that we will be discovered by them before we leave the Demon Clan.
Besides, the spiritual world is so big, what if you encounter danger after leaving the demon clan? "
