THE LIGHTNING EMPEROR

The Roots of the Magma Tree

***

The return of Fang An who was declared dead and disappeared for a year made the entire Academy in an uproar, even Fa Ling who was at the outer Gate also heard the news of Fang An's return immediately going to the Academy to meet with Fang An.

The students who had only heard the story of Fang An's figure as an Academy Hero could now see the figure directly, though, whereas those who already knew who Fang An would be were also growing more and more amazed towards the most talented disciple in the academy.

Right now in the hall room of the tower, the situation was extremely quiet, all the Elders and the Chairman and the guidance teacher only looked at each other after Fang An told them everything while he was inside the Red Lightning Core Seal.

Xhang Gugu let out a long sigh while looking at the ceiling, his mind was a little dead-end and he occasionally noticed Fang An who was smiling awkwardly against the Academy's higher-ups who instantly fell silent after knowing everything.

"Then what is the fate of the Academy? Without the Pure Energy Red Lightning Core, the Academy was no different from the Sects in general right?" ji Xao Long.

"I don't know either! But I ask that this news should not be widely spread, for the time being I will find a solution, later after the Great Elder comes, maybe he can do something to overcome this problem!" answer Xhang Gugu.

Of course Xhang Gugu did not think of asking back that Red Lightning Core from Fang An, it would not be wise if he had to do that.

"Maybe this is the best for the Red Lightning Core, it's better that Disciple Fang who has that Red Lightning Core than to have to fall into the hands of the Red Ribbon people!" said Han Yuwei.

"Red Ribbon!"

Fang An's facial expression darkened upon hearing the name Red Ribbon, he naturally would not forget to the group, as the Ice Lion died from their assault.

"What happened after I fell into the Seal?" ask Fang An.

"They retreated after you had killed the Expert, and we didn't have time to stop him because we ourselves were preoccupied by the rampage of the Red Lightning Core that didn't want you to be saved!" answer Lao Yang He.

"Actually Elder Xhang is planning to counterattack in the near future!" bing Xuyue said.

"really? Then when are we going to attack the Red Ribbon Group?" asked Fang An who was immediately excited after getting word from Bing Xuyue.

The Elders and the Chief and everyone in the Tower Hall Room looked at Fang An in astonishment, what seemed gloomy suddenly immediately excited after knowing that Xhang Gugu intended to eradicate the Red Ribbon group to its roots.

"Hem! Actually not so rushed as well, we still haven't finished strategizing, remember if there is one Spirit Beast at Earth level 5, he might be the only opponent that is very difficult to defeat!" xhang Gugu.

"Spirit Beast huh? Just leave him to me!" fang An said thus making Xhang Gugu surprised.

"Are you sure Fang An? That Spirit Beast's power is so high, even I just can't defeat it!" xhang Gugu.

"I know about it! But I also have a technique capable of getting him injured," Fang An replied.

Fang An had already faced off against an Earth 3 Anim Beast, back then he was still at the Yu Zha stage, however Fang An used his God of Destruction Lightning Technique and was able to kill the Anim Beast.

Right now Fang An's abilities were already quite great, although he naturally could not defeat that Spirit Beast, but now Fang An had already perfected the Technique which had left him almost dead for two times

"If it were only to hold him back, I would certainly be able to the Elders, while waiting for one of you to finish defeating their Protector members, I will try my best to divert it while waiting for one of you to come help me face that Spirit Beast together!" fang An said.

"But Fang An, it's too risky for you!" bing Xuyue said.

"Nothing will happen to me, it's just a trick for diversion, so you don't have to worry" Fang An said.

"I've obtained information regarding the amount of their strongest power, I actually want to call the Great Elder to come help, if there is him, the Spirit Beast is no longer a problem for me, actually, but since the summoning seal has already been destroyed due to your fight, so this matter should be dealt with together!" xhang Gugu.

"How much strength are their strongest Elders?" ask Fang An.

"For the Protectors there are four, three of whom have already come to attack here, and another one is probably the Red Ribbon Group Leader, coupled with the Spirit Beast being Five, and the other one is probably the Red Ribbon Group Leader, on Yu Jing's side it was still the same number as when they came here, and now we already have the numbers, whereas for Yu Zhu's, their numbers are now increasing, as well, but the number of us who are capable of Yu Zhu is also increasing, so our strength is already equal if we do not calculate the existence of that Spirit Beast!" answer Xhang Gugu.

"What about the Yu Zha on their side?" asked Lin Hang.

"They don't count, even if they join forces to attack our Yu Jing, it doesn't matter either because I myself will also bring my Spirit Beast who is already at Earth level 4, too, with that much Spirit Beast power would definitely be able to make the Yu Zha on their side run away!" answer Xhang Gugu.

"Earth Level 4 Spirit Beast, why didn't the Elders use it during that fight?" ask Fang An.

"My Spirit Beast was currently making a breakout to Level 4, therefore I did not summon it, but now my Spirit Beast Power has already broken through to Level 4, he said, and it's very useful to help us later in Red Ribbon Headquarters!" answer Xhang Gugu.

"Then all right, now we just have to decide when to go there!" ji Xao Long.

"Because!The elder we better leave tomorrow alone, the sooner the better!" fang An said.

"You've just come out of your training, shouldn't you rest for five days? Once you feel fit enough to go to fight, then we will leave!" xhang Gugu.

"My current condition is more than enough to go there Elder!" replied Fang An.

"Then be well! Since all of you have agreed, then tomorrow at sunrise we will soon be leaving for the Southern Region!" xhang Gugu.

"Chairman Ji Xao Long! There is something I want to ask you," Fang An said after the meeting in disbanded to prepare himself.

"What do you want to ask?" ji Xao Long.

"Elder! You are an Alchemist, right? If I may ask, I wonder if the Elder has ever heard of the name of the Pill material called the Magma Tree Root?" ask Fang An.

"The Tree of Magma? Of course I know, even I own it!" ji Xao Long replied.

Fang An was surprised to hear that, he did not expect that Ji Xao Long had it, only that he did not know if Ji Xao Long would not mind if his Magma Tree Root was bought by him.
