Chapter 39 Jade Parasol Tree
Qing Nu did not resist the charm of the Jade Phoenix Troupe and agreed to Chen Mobai’s request.
After the two of them added each other’s contact details, Chen Mobai brought the hangover medicine home.
At this moment, his uncle, Wang Jianyuan, had already driven his car over. Chen Xinglan was going to stay in the Rank-3 spiritual vein cave abode of the Crimson Afterglow Academy for two years, so he naturally had to bring a lot of luggage.
When Chen Mobai arrived home, Chen Xinglan and Tang Pancui were moving things. After the former drank the hangover medicine Chen Mobai bought, he became a little more energetic.
“I’ll never drink again.”
Although he said that, Chen Mobai felt that if their entire family was reunited next time, Chen Xinglan would still drink a lot.
There was strength in numbers. Soon, the bedding and clothes were packed. Chen Xinglan comforted Tang Pancui, whose eyes were red, and carried his luggage.
“All right, my son can take me there. Just wait at home.”
After the couple bade farewell, Chen Mobai sat in the front passenger seat.
Chen Xinlan originally said that there was no need for any of his family members to send him off. He could just step onto this path alone.
However, Tang Pancui was worried. Chen Mobai also wanted to see the Crimson Afterglow Academy, so he let Chen Mobai tag along
Wang Jianyuan’s driving skills were excellent. The journey of nearly 40 kilometers took less than an hour.
“Is this the Crimson Afterglow Academy?!”
SUIL
Chen Mobai looked at the buildings in the large forest of parasol trees and felt the extremely dense spiritual energy in the surrounding air. He couldn’t help but take a deep breath. “Cough cough… cough cough…” Then, he couldn’t help but cough violently.
The spiritual energy here contained a wave of heat. Without refining and integrating it with the 12 sections of his throat, his throat could not take it. The spiritual vein here was a fire vein. Naturally, Chen Mobai, who had been nourished in a water vein recently, could not adapt to it.
“Do you see that Spiritual Peak?”
Chen Xinglan got out of the car and pointed to the deepest part of the forest, where the highest mountain that towered into the clouds was located. Even though the area was filled with white clouds, they could not hide the incomparably huge Jade Parasol Tree at the top of the Spiritual Peak that seemed to connect heaven and earth.
From a distance, its bark was as green as jade, and its leaves resembled flowers. It was elegant and clean, and surrounded by clouds.
“Is this the Jade Parasol Tree that has lived for more than four thousand years?!”
Danxia City was classified as one of the 72 Blessed Lands of the immortal sect because of this superior-grade Rank-4 parasol tree. The tree witnessed the rise of the immortal sect and had also taken root in this mountain range. It gathered superior-grade and suppressed the leyline, turning an ordinary extinct volcano to the current Rank-4 spiritual vein.
It could be said that without the Jade Parasol Tree, the current Danxia City would not exist.
“That Spiritual Peak is where Perfected One Shi Qing cultivates. Meanwhile, my Foundation Establishment cave abode is at the foot of the mountain.”
Chen Xinglan had long applied to return to the school and advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm on the Crimson Afterglow Academy’s official website. Then, he obtained an official reply giving him permission to do so. As driving was not allowed in the school, the three of them carried luggages of all sizes and walked to the foot of Spiritual Peak.
Before entering the cave abode, he naturally had to register with the teacher in charge of management. Fortunately, that person was actually Chen Xinglan’s classmate, but he had been staying in school after his graduation to help with logistics.
He looked at the content of the official reply with the school seal and immediately arranged for an empty inferior-grade Rank-3 cave abode.

“The school is similar to what it was 30 years ago. Nothing has changed. You know the location of the cafeteria. If you want to save some Karma Points, you can prepare your own fasting pills.”
With the help of his acquaintance, everything went smoothly. Under his lead, Chen Xinglan applied for a school card. With this, he could swipe his card and enter the cave abode. He could even enjoy most of the facilities and benefits of the Crimson Afterglow Academy, such as auditing classes, libraries, and even those medicinal pills, Dharma artifacts, and spirit talisman shops that were specially for students.
“Thanks, Old Yan.”
Chen Xinglan’s old classmate was called Yan Xiang. After helping him with the school card, he even took a plant pot from his office and handed it to Chen Mobai.
“This is your son, right? I didn’t prepare much for our first meeting. I’ll give you this green parasol seedling.”
Yan Xiang was a very kind middle-aged man. This was a green parasol seedling with only two leaves. After receiving his father’s permission, Chen Mobai reached out to take it.
“When students enroll in the Crimson Afterglow Academy, all students will receive a parasol tree branch and have to raise it before graduation. After graduation, they can bring the parasol tree back. If students don’t want to spend too much time on paying a Spritual Gardener, they can plant the parasol tree branch in the school. This is how our parasol tree forest came about.”
Yan Xiang posted to the lush parasol tree forest that stretched over the mountains with a proud expression. After speaking, he had something else to do and left.
“Well, we won’t disturb you any more. Call me if you need anything. It’s easy for me to drive over.”
Wang Jianyuan carried the luggages into the cave abode. Seeing that it was getting late, he planned to leave.
“Let’s have a meal together. After all, I just got my card. The food in the Crimson Afterglow Academy’s canteen is also superb.”
Chen Xinglan suggested, but Wang Jianyuan shook his head and said that he had another business in the afternoon and had to rush back. Chen Mobai could only leave with him.
At the school gate, the father and son said goodbye. Chen Mobai was about to get into the car when he saw an acquaintance.
“Teacher Chan, why are you here?”
It was Chan Si, who taught array formations in school. She was wearing a red dress today and looked very good. However, she was a student at the Danzhu Academy. Thus, Chen Mobai was very surprised to see her at the Crimson Afterglow Academy.
However, she was not alone. She was accompanied by another man in green.
“Oh, it’s you. It must be class time, right?”
Chan Si was also very surprised to see Chen Mobai in the Crimson Afterglow Academy. “I’m here to send my Dad…”
After explaining, Chan Si nodded in realization. She looked at the Green Parasol seedling in Chen Mobai’s hand and smiled as she wished Chen Xinglan success in achieving the Foundation Establishment Realm.
“I’m here on my mentor’s orders to bring this Senior Brother to meet Daoist Shi Qing.”
The man in green also smiled and nodded at Chen Mobai. He did not introduce himself.
After greeting him, Chen Mobai remembered that Wang Jianyuan had something to attend to and didn’t talk much to Chan Si. He thanked her again for the help with the Jade Water Array and got into the car.
“Is he one of your students?”
The man in green asked after Chen Mobai left.
“Yes, he has a good personality, but his aptitude is a little ordinary.”
“Oh, really? Am I mistaken?”
“What?”
Chan Si did not understand what the man in green meant. The man in green cultivated a secret technique that allowed him to sense the fluctuations of divine sense. He felt an active but disorderly sense of familiarity from Chen Mobai.
It was the feeling of an ordinary cultivator who had just broken through to the late stages of the Qi Refinement Realm and had yet to accurately grasp his divine sense.
He thought that Chen Mobai was already at Qi Refinement Level-7 at such a young age. “I remember that he just broke through to Qi Refinement Level-5 when school started this semester. Based on his Spiritual Root aptitude, it’s impossible for him to break through to Qi Refinement Level-7 in just a month, right?”
When Chan Si heard this, she recalled Chen Mobai’s aptitude and spoke in confusion. The man in green felt that she was right and did not think too deeply about it.
“I’m a little sensitive about this when I select students for the immortal sects. Maybe I was wrong.”
After the man in green finished speaking, he shook his head. He had been thinking about what questions he should ask during this year’s college entrance examination. Thus, he was tense and might have sensed something wrong.
“Let’s go. You’ll be locked up for the next few days. You can only come down from Spiritual Peak after the college entrance examination ends.”
“I can’t ask for more than to enjoy a Rank-4 spiritual vein.”
Chan Si brought him to the cave abode on the mountainside near the Jade Parasol Tree. There were eight inferior-grade Rank-4 cave abodes here. As one of the people who set the questions for this year’s college entrance examination, the man in green was isolated in one of the cave abodes.
“I wonder when the people from the Dao Colleges and academies will come. After I set the questions, will they still have to review it?”
Chan Si smiled at that, but said nothing.
