Han Feng nodded without hesitation, his gaze resolute and unwavering.

"I'm certain! As long as I can seize the exotic flame from Jia Nan Academy, I'll refine three pills for each of you in return.

Destroying Jia Nan Academy is all I care about. I only want the exotic flame—take everything else for yourselves.

Beyond that, as long as it's within my ability, I'll fulfill any requests you have."

The Gold and Silver Elders, along with Mo Tianxing, exchanged glances, a flicker of greed gleaming in their eyes.

Han Feng's promise was too enticing to ignore. If he truly delivered on his words, it would be an offer impossible to refuse.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Mo Tianxing finally nodded.

"In that case, we'll follow your lead."

A smirk of satisfaction spread across Han Feng's face. He knew his bait had worked perfectly.

Inwardly, he calculated meticulously—once he obtained the exotic flame, everything else would fall into place.

The Gold and Silver Elders turned toward Jia Nan Academy in the distance, one of them speaking in a low voice, "Lord Han Feng, this is Jia Nan Academy we're dealing with. Shouldn't we observe the situation first before making a move?"

Han Feng's lips curled into a disdainful smirk. He replied casually,

"Observe? At Jia Nan Academy, aside from Su Qian, the elder who recently broke through to Dou Zong, there's only the mysterious dean of the Inner Academy.

But rumor has it that the dean has been in seclusion for years with no word of him surfacing.

There's nothing to fear."

Hearing this, the Gold and Silver Elders nodded, their confidence bolstered.

The Inner Academy's dean had indeed been absent from public view for an extended time. This operation seemed unimpeded.

Their side boasted three Dou Zong experts, not counting Han Feng himself. How could Jia Nan Academy hope to stand against them?

Meanwhile, Han Feng commanded his subordinates to swiftly arrange formations, ensuring the surroundings were tightly secured. The entire group concealed themselves within the dense forest, awaiting the perfect moment to strike.

Every gaze burned with ferocity, as if they were ready to reduce Jia Nan Academy to rubble at any second.

"Our goal is the exotic flame within Jia Nan Academy. Once we obtain it, our power will grow exponentially!"

Han Feng's order was quiet but firm. His subordinates nodded immediately, their murderous intent coalescing into a palpable aura that enveloped the entire group.

Leading the way, Han Feng guided them through the dense woods.

Moonlight spilled over the darkened earth, casting an eerie stillness over the landscape.

Moving stealthily along a hidden path, their momentum gathered, like an unstoppable blade aiming to cleave straight into Jia Nan Academy.

Within the academy's main hall, Su Qian and the elders gathered around a map and a pile of intelligence reports, their expressions somber.

Su Qian furrowed his brow, his gaze tinged with concern.

"The Black-Corner Region is becoming increasingly volatile. This does not bode well.

We must remain vigilant at all times."

One of the elders interjected, "Indeed. We need to bolster our defenses immediately to prevent any unforeseen incidents."

Another elder added in a grave tone, "Especially Dan Emperor Han Feng. He's always been our greatest threat, and it seems he's planning something big."

Su Qian nodded.

"Han Feng has been eyeing us for a long time. We cannot afford to be careless.

Mobilize all available personnel and strengthen the academy's defenses."

As the discussion continued, a guard rushed in, his expression urgent as he reported gravely,

"Elder Su Qian, we've received an urgent report from outside. A group is approaching Jia Nan Academy!"

The elders exchanged worried glances, their hearts sinking.

They realized this crisis might be far more severe than anticipated. The only course of action was to fortify their defenses immediately to face the impending threat.

Elder Su Qian scanned the room with a sharp gaze, his voice resolute and commanding.

"Full-scale alert! Prepare to engage the enemy!"

A tense atmosphere quickly spread throughout Jia Nan Academy.

In the student dormitories, word of the looming crisis traveled fast, filling everyone with unease.

In the academy's great hall, senior leaders and faculty stood at the ready, their faces stern and determined.

Standing on a raised platform, they addressed the students with an urgent announcement.

"Students, the academy may soon face a significant crisis. Stay alert and prioritize your safety at all times."

One of the elders sternly warned the students, his voice tinged with worry about the uncertain fate ahead.

The atmosphere in the grand hall was heavy. Nervousness and fear were written on the faces of the students.

Some furrowed their brows, lost in anxious thoughts about what the future might hold. Others wore expressions of panic, their hearts gripped with fear for their safety.

Yet, amid the tension, a group of students stood with remarkable resolve.

They stood tall in the crowd, heads high and eyes firm, gazing unwaveringly ahead.

"The academy will persevere! We believe in the academy, in our teachers and leaders!"

A confident student declared loudly, his voice echoing through the hall and inspiring a sense of faith in others.

However, there was also a segment of students who seemed indifferent to the crisis.

Particularly among those from families tied to the Black-Corner Region, their faces betrayed no concern. They already knew the identity of the attackers and were convinced the academy stood no chance of withstanding such power.

"Han Feng is here, haha! Jia Nan Academy is done for."

"That's right. We've known for a long time that Jia Nan Academy is weak. This was bound to happen sooner or later."

"Ha, when disaster strikes, let's see how they handle it."

They sneered, as though they had long foreseen this outcome, showing no regard for the academy's fate.

In the White Gang's activity room, a group of students surrounded Bai Cheng, their faces filled with confusion as they questioned him.

"Boss, what's going on?"

Bai Cheng took a deep breath, his expression heavy. "It seems the news about the exotic flame has leaked. Some powerful figures from the Black-Corner Region are coming to seize it."

The atmosphere, once relaxed, grew tense in an instant.

Students exchanged uneasy glances, their hearts filling with fear and uncertainty.

However, as they reflected further, a strange excitement began to build within them.

They realized that if these powerful figures were coming for the exotic flame, it could present an opportunity to vent their frustrations against Jia Nan Academy's leadership.

"Haha, this is perfect! That Xiao Wuya is finally in trouble!"

One student clapped his hands in glee, a sly grin spreading across his face.

"If someone's coming to take Xiao Wuya's exotic flame, we're in for a great show!"

"Exactly! That Xiao Wuya has been way too arrogant. Now someone else will deal with him—it's about time!"

The other students eagerly chimed in, their voices brimming with schadenfreude.

For a long time, they had harbored resentment toward the academy's leadership for sheltering Xiao Yan. Now that the crisis loomed, they saw it as a chance to watch the tables turn.

Deep down, many of them hoped Xiao Yan would meet his end sooner rather than later.
