“That’s right, Yin Qingleng is dead, Young Institute Head should inherit the position of the institute head!”
An instructor from Yin Qingleng’s camp quickly said.
Everyone agreed.
The instructors who previously stood on Yin Qingleng’s side all used actions to cut ties with him.
“Since everyone agrees, from now on, Lu Wang will be the new head of the Ice Feather Institute!”
Jiang Xu saw the situation and quickly announced.
The situation was clear. Lu Wang becoming the new institute head was the natural course of action.
A relieved smile finally appeared on Lu Wang’s face.
Yin Qingleng was dead. For him, he had completed half of his grandfather’s revenge. Now that he had obtained the position of the institute head, he had also fulfilled his grandfather’s wish.
“Today, I became the head of the Ice Feather Institute all because of the support of my seniors. Thank you!”
Lu Wang cupped his fists and said to everyone.
However, his gaze mainly swept across Xu Ning, Jiang Xu, and Xu Siqi.
“I am only a rank three arcanist. My strength is shallow, and I am young. It is impossible for me to manage the overall situation of the Ice Feather Institute alone. I hope that in the future, all the seniors here can support me. I will definitely learn from you.”
Lu Wang’s words were sincere.
He knew very well that it was impossible for him to control the Ice Feather Institute alone.
If he wanted the Ice Feather Institute to maintain its current strength, Xu Ning, Jiang Xu, and Xu Siqi had to chip in.
After speaking, the others also expressed their support for Lu Wang.
Jiang Xu and Xu Siqi began to clean up the mess.
What happened today would have a huge impact on the Icy Feather Institute. Jiang Xu had to join forces with other instructors to ensure the stability of the Icy Feather Institute.
As for Xu Ning, he did not intervene in these specific matters.
In fact, ever since Xu Ning came to the Ice Feather Institute, he had been focused on cultivation and did not deal with any of those annoying chores.
Although this made him seemed a little lazy, in fact, it was also a way to make Jiang Xu, Xu Siqi, and Lu Wang feel at ease.
After all, Xu Ning was an outsider with extremely strong combat power. If he wanted to take over the Ice Feather Institute and spent all his efforts on the institute, he would definitely be suspected.
Moreover, Xu Ning was not interested in dealing with such chores.
He only wanted resources.
Time flew by, and several days went by in the blink of an eye.
Over the past few days, besides going to find Guan Yue and giving her some pointers, Xu Ning just stayed in his courtyard and did not go out.
On this day, Jiang Xu came to find Xu Ning.
Jiang Xu looked a little tired after days of not resting.
In the Arcanist World, unless one was a rank seven arcanist, their physical state was only the limit of a mortal.
Unless one had the power of arcanism to support their body, they could not even defeat some mortal masters with just their physical body.
“Brother Xu.”
Jiang Xu was very welcoming.
He had a good impression of Xu Ning.
Jiang Xu had some concerns when he brought Xu Ning to the Ice Feather Institute. Xu Ning was an outsider after all, and he was extremely strong. If he had any strange intentions, it would bring great trouble.
But the situation was too precarious at that time, so he had no better choice.
Luckily, after Xu Ning really came to the Ice Feather Institute, Jiang Xu discovered that Xu Ning was not interested in managing the Ice Feather Institute at all.
His only requirement was to have a lot of resources, which made Jiang Xu heave a sigh of relief. Feeling relieved, he also tried his best to find a way to help Xu Ning to gather resources.
This time, Xu Ning played the greatest role in their plan to get rid of Yin Qingleng and helping Lu Wang obtain the position of the institute head, but just like before, he did not have the intention to get involved with the power structure of the Ice Feather Institute. This made Jiang Xu feel extremely satisfied.
“Brother Jiang, you look tired. You should rest more.”
Xu Ning said in a relaxed tone.
Jiang Xu laughed when he heard this. “Brother Xu, the institute has been stabilized. The Ice Feather Institute will soon be on the right track.”
“That’s good.”
Xu Ning also smiled.
This way, his supply of resources would increase again.
“Moreover, we have reached a temporary agreement with the Wind Sea Institute.”
Jiang Xu lowered his voice and stopped smiling.
“Oh?”
Xu Ning raised his eyebrows.
The Wind Sea Institute’s collusion with Yin Qingleng had caused a lot of damage to the Ice Feather Institute.
Not only were their resources secretly given to them, but they also plotted to assassinate the Old Institute Head. This kind of hatred was very difficult to completely eliminate.
“Although there is a deep hatred between us and the Wind Sea Institute, we have no way to retaliate and take revenge as of now.”
There was a hint of helplessness in Jiang Xu’s tone.
The Wind Sea Institute had two rank six arcanists. Even when the Old Institute Head was still alive, the Ice Feather Institute was already weaker than the Wind Sea Institute.
Now that the Old Institute Head was dead and the Ice Feather Institute had experienced turbulence, its overall level had fallen by two levels. It was impossible for them to fight head-on against the Wind Sea Institute.
“The Wind Sea Institute obviously doesn’t want to expose their collusion with Yin Qingleng and their encroachment on the Ice Feather Institute. After all, this will affect their reputation in the southern part of the Barren Wind Region. Therefore, the two sides made a compromise.”
Jiang Xu said, “If we hand over the evidence of their collusion with Yin Qingleng, they will also give us a large amount of resources.”
“Is that so…”
Xu Ning nodded.
He could understand Jiang Xu’s pain.
The other party was involved in the assassination of the Old Institute Head, but Jiang Xu could only hold back.
This was because they were no match for the Wind Sea Institute.
“We still have a chance for revenge.”
Xu Ning patted Jiang Xu’s shoulder. “As long as the Ice Feather Institute becomes strong enough, the Wind Sea Institute will sooner or later pay the price.”
“Mmn.”
Jiang Xu nodded heavily.
“Brother Xu.”
Jiang Xu continued, “The institute has decided to provide you with a lot of resources. I hope you can cultivate in peace and improve further. This way, the high-level combat power of the Ice Feather Institute will be guaranteed.”
“I will do my best.”
Xu Ning responded.
After the two talked for a while, Jiang Xu left Xu Ning’s residence.
Over the next few days, just like Jiang Xu said, a large amount of resources were distributed to Xu Ning.
Xu Ning absorbed it all to improve his realm.
It was just that the energy needed to advance to rank six was a little too much. He obviously couldn’t save the amount needed in such a short time.
However, Xu Ning was not in a hurry.
Thus, Xu Ning began to live a relatively idle life.
In addition to absorbing resources, he would be guiding Guan Yue and Lu Wang’s cultivation.
Among them, Lu Wang’s advancement was not obvious, but Guan Yue’s improvement was great. She directly broke through to a rank three arcanist.
This made Guan Yue very happy.
As for Xu Ning, he was slowly accumulating energy during this idle period..
