Chapter 374: Chapter 373: The Use of Titles
The Dean of Tianyi Academy saw Shen Han leaning on Shi Yuezhu, and didn’t think anything inappropriate.
Even though the Dean of Tianyi Academy enjoys and is skilled at making raunchy jokes.
But who is Shi Yuezhu?
In today’s Great Wei, she is the youngest strong person in the Immortal Realm.
Throughout the three kingdoms of Wei, Qi, and Yan, she is an outstanding existence. There are very few who entered the Immortal Realm earlier than her.
Subconsciously, the Dean wouldn’t associate the two with such romantic feelings.
Not surprisingly, Shi Yuezhu likely has some admiration for Shen Han as well.
After all, for Shen Han to reach this stage at his age is truly astonishing.
It’s normal for Shi Yuezhu to view Shen Han differently.
Earlier, Shi Yuezhu was even injured in a fight with Luo Zuchen to protect Shen Han.
Shen Han risked his life to go to the Land of the Far South to find Cloud Rong Grass for Shi Yuezhu.
Today, it is reasonable for Shi Yuezhu to visit Shen Han.
After placing Shen Han on the bed, Shi Yuezhu stood up with a bit of panic.
“Please hand this herb to Shen Han when he wakes, I won’t disturb him while he rests…”
After handing over the herb, Shi Yuezhu quickly left.
The Dean of Tianyi Academy didn’t misunderstand, but she felt a little… as if something was caught in her heart.
After Shi Yuezhu left, the Dean of Tianyi Academy looked again at the herb he received.
He initially intended just to glance at it, but that one glance made him take it more seriously.
He confirmed after taking a closer look for a while.
This is an Illusory Flower…
Upon confirming it was an Illusory Flower, the Dean couldn’t help but turn his head to glance in the direction Shi Yuezhu left.
He spoke unconsciously: “Peak Master Shi is truly generous, to actually give away such a thing…”
Originally, the Dean of Tianyi Academy didn’t have any suspicions, but this Illusory Flower seemed a bit overly generous.
Frowning slightly, the Dean became thoughtful.
Initially, he thought Shen Han would wake after a few two-hour periods.
But the Dean of Tianyi Academy stayed in the room for eight two-hour periods, until dawn was about to break again.
Shen Han still slept deeply.
After communicating with the academy’s physician, they asked the Dean to bring Shen Han back immediately.
Upon hearing this, the Dean immediately set off with Shen Han in a carriage.
The carriage raced through the air, and the fastest the whole journey would take is two days.
Yet Shen Han remained in a deep sleep, which was quite concerning.
During a match with Shen Ye, Shen Han activated Divine Abyss-White and slightly suppressed it to avoid a strong backlash.
But the backlash effect, combined with the recovery from Unceasing Skill, had Shen Han sleeping for three days.
Upon returning to Tianyi Academy, the Dean took Shen Han directly to his quarters.
The academy’s physician, also tense, immediately began examining Shen Han.
After half a two-hour period, three physicians concluded after a detailed examination.
Blood and energy depletion, excessive physical exhaustion, with almost no other issues.
Upon hearing this, the Dean of Tianyi Academy finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At Tianyi Academy, Shen Han slept for another day before finally waking up.
Seeing Shen Han awake, an attendant not far away quickly brought a bowl of soup.
Shen Han glanced at it, thinking of the Mind-Alerting Soup.
Then drank it in one gulp.
Actually, with Unceasing Skill, even after sleeping too long, it wouldn’t leave him too disoriented.
By comparison, he actually felt a bit hungry.
The Dean of Tianyi Academy, having received the news, quickly returned, with a table of dishes already set in the yard.
“You brat, were you really just struck by drowsiness, or were you purposely taking advantage of Peak Master Shi?”
The Dean began by mentioning the events of that day.
“Dean, am I… did I do something?”
Hearing this, Shen Han was taken aback, feeling like he might have done something wrong while half-asleep.
“You think you’re something, wondering what else you could do.
Just resting on Peak Master Shi is good enough.
Fortunately, it was Peak Master Shi, who is always gentle and saw you injured.
Otherwise, if you were to cling to another strong Immortal Realm, you would have been kicked away.”
At these words, Shen Han didn’t respond.
Turns out it was just resting, he’d already embraced her, what was just resting?
In fact, when the Dean said these words, he was always watching Shen Han’s expression.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed increasingly strange.
Suddenly leaning on an Immortal Realm strong person, even with Shi Yuezhu’s good temperament, there would be some worry.
But Shen Han showed no concern at all.
They really seemed to have something going on…
The Dean felt he had discovered something remarkable.
It seemed earlier during a casual conversation, Shen Han jokingly mentioned Shi Yuezhu.
With talk asking how one could reach her status, but at the time, the Dean dismissed it as Shen Han joking.
But now it seemed as if everything was traceable.
Despite thinking these things, the Dean didn’t mention it immediately.
He brought out the Illusory Flower and handed it over for Shen Han to give to the Yun Family.
To refine it into a Pill, making its medicinal properties even stronger.
Having finished these tasks, the Dean couldn’t help but glance at Shen Han a few more times.
“Originally, I wanted to ask you about the strange method of enhancing strength during the match.
But seeing now that you have no health issues, I won’t bother asking.
In a few days, His Holiness should issue the Imperial Decree.
It will publicly declare your Marquis succession qualifications to heaven, then ancestral worship will follow.
Ancestral worship should mean returning to Shen Mansion in Yun’an City, but don’t worry, I’ll accompany you all the way.
And after the heavenly declaration, you will be officially acknowledged by the Imperial Court as the Marquis successor.
Anyone who attacks you then will be openly defying the Imperial Court.
Luo Zuchen, as arrogant as he might be, wouldn’t dare to openly display disloyalty.
Even if he wanted to attack you, he could only do so secretly, looking for other opportunities.
But such opportunities will only decrease in the future!”
Hearing the Dean’s words, Shen Han nodded.
This Marquis successor title provided a layer of protection he hadn’t expected, a pleasant surprise indeed.
Yet, in an instant, Shen Han couldn’t help but frown again.
“Dean, you mentioned that Luo Zuchen has a backer…”
The Dean heard Shen Han’s concern and smiled slightly.
“Don’t worry, Luo Zuchen indeed has a backer.
But this is Great Wei, no matter who, it’s not possible to openly defy the Imperial Court here.
Even though his backer is powerful and His Holiness has to tolerate him.
However, if they openly show signs of rebellion, everything changes.”
The Dean’s explanation was rather clear.
It meant that in public, Luo Zuchen and those behind him wouldn’t dare to recklessly make a move against him.
Shen Han nodded without saying more.
Yet there was still a lingering sense of caution in his heart.
If Luo Zuchen disregarded everything and was willing to be labeled a traitor, what then?
