Chapter 0653: Capture the Opponent First

Ippu lay on the ground like a dead pig, showing no reaction to the shouts of the Luo Ha family’s guards. Blood gushed from his mouth.
The five guards of the Luo Ha family looked extremely panicked. They had been ordered by their young master to stay outside, but they never expected him to end up in such a state so soon after entering!
If Ippu died, their fate would likely be no better!
At the thought of what might happen, the five guards shuddered.
In fact, Ippu’s life force hadn’t been completely severed; the Yellow Dragon had only injured him. Of course, his meridians were broken, leaving him disabled for life.
The Yellow Dragon didn’t want to kill an ordinary person.
“It’s you! You’re the one who hurt our young master?!” One of the Luo Ha family guards turned to look at the Yellow Dragon, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Apart from Panna, the only one nearby was the Yellow Dragon, who was searching for books.
When that guard shouted, the other four also realized what was happening. They all glared at the Yellow Dragon, eager to tear into his flesh.
Only then did the Yellow Dragon slowly lift his head and look at them.
The five guards of the Luo Ha family were quite strong, all at level nine. The one who had shouted was even at the peak of mid-level nine, seemingly on the verge of reaching advanced level nine. With such strength, as long as their opponent wasn’t a Saint Domain powerhouse, they believed they could kill him.
Of course, though they wanted to kill him, they hesitated to do so right away, fearing their young master’s interrogation.
“Kid, I’ll make your life worse than death!” the guard sneered viciously. With that, he struck the Yellow Dragon with a palm strike. This guard practiced lightning-based techniques, and his strike was accompanied by flashing lightning, far more powerful than Ippu’s attack.
Since the Yellow Dragon could seriously injure Ippu, he must be quite strong. In the guard’s eyes, the Yellow Dragon was likely at the late stage of level eight or even at the peak of level eight, so he couldn’t afford to be careless.
The other four guards of the Luo Ha family also attacked.
Five level-nine warriors attacking created powerful gusts of wind.
However, the five of them didn’t notice that no matter how strong the gusts were, the edges of the Yellow Dragon’s clothes didn’t move at all. Even the books on the surrounding shelves remained perfectly still, untouched by the wind.
Under Panna’s strange gaze, the Yellow Dragon simply stood there foolishly, watching as the five of them attacked him.

When the five attackers were less than a meter away from the Yellow Dragon, suddenly, Panna noticed that the five guards of the Luohe family’s body had stopped mid-air, and the gusts of wind they had created also ceased.
“Space, the laws of space?!” Panna exclaimed in shock after realizing what was happening, pointing at the Yellow Dragon with a look of disbelief.
Laws of space—someone from the Holy Land!
Could this man with the embroidered pillow really be a powerhouse from the Holy Land?! At that moment, Panna felt her breathing become rapid, her full breasts heaving violently.
He must be around twenty years old! Panna stared in astonishment at the Yellow Dragon’s handsome face.
“Which grade is he in? Why haven’t I heard of him before?”
“And which family does he belong to?!”
Countless thoughts flashed through Panna’s mind.
Just then, the Yellow Dragon’s eyes flickered, and the five guards of the Luohe family’s body jolted violently. With terrified expressions, they flew backward and crashed to the ground, unconscious.
There were no screams; everything came to a halt.
The Yellow Dragon had sealed off the surrounding space, so the noise here didn’t draw the attention of other students or librarians in the library. Otherwise, the presence of five ninth-grade powerhouses would have already caused a stir.
The Yellow Dragon glanced at Panna, then turned back to continue searching for books.
Panna stood frozen there, staring at the six Ip men lying motionless on the ground, then cautiously looking at the Yellow Dragon who continued searching for books. She didn’t know what to do, her heart pounding wildly.
A powerhouse from the Holy Land was undoubtedly a top-tier fighter in the Hengyuan Realm. Even her father treated such a person with great respect. Yet she had never heard of a Holy Land powerhouse around twenty years old in the Hengyuan Realm!
Among the young people of the Hengyuan Continent, the most renowned figure, Shenmen Xuhuutian, was only at the peak of ninth grade.
The Yellow Dragon ignored them and continued searching through the history of the Hengyuan Realm.
Standing there for a long time, Panna’s expression shifted repeatedly. She tried to speak several times but held back. This time, she realized that the Yellow Dragon seemed genuinely here to find books, not to wait for her on purpose. Though proud, she knew her limits.
Seeing that the Yellow Dragon seemed to have forgotten her existence, Panna felt a mix of emotions.
In the end, ignoring the six Ip men, she turned and left.
Not long after Panna left, news spread that Ip, a powerful fighter from the inner courtyard of the Divine Wind Academy, along with his five ninth-grade guards, had been seriously injured in the library by a young man with black hair.
Instantly, tens of thousands of students from both the inner and outer courtyards of the Divine Wind Academy were in an uproar.

Ip was a peak warrior of level seven. Although he was very strong in the inner courtyard, there were still those stronger than him there, so it wasn’t strange for him to be seriously injured. However, the fact that even five level-nine experts from the Luo Ha family were severely injured by this dark-haired young man was astonishing. Moreover, since this incident involved Panna, ranked first among the top ten beauties of the academy, it sparked even more speculation. Many believed that this mysterious dark-haired young man had acted out of jealousy toward Ip.
“I heard this dark-haired young man might be a Saint Domain expert!”
“Impossible! When did our Divine Wind Academy produce such a strong person?!”
News spread quickly. More than an hour after Panna left, most of the students at Divine Wind Academy were already aware of it. With everyone’s natural curiosity, they flocked to the library. Initially, the teachers at Divine Wind Academy didn’t pay much attention, but as more and more students rushed to the library, they grew suspicious and inquired about the details, only to be shocked. They immediately reported the matter to the academy’s management.
No student or teacher at Divine Wind Academy had the strength to seriously injure five level-nine experts from the Luo Ha family, so they concluded that this dark-haired young man must not be from Divine Wind Academy. A skilled fighter who might be a Saint Domain expert had infiltrated Divine Wind Academy—this was no small matter!
In the board meeting hall of Divine Wind Academy:
“What? A Saint Domain expert?” Inside the hall, there were over a dozen people, all of whom were Saint Domain experts! The one who spoke was an old man with white hair sitting in the middle.
This old man with white hair was Ou Yangming, the current president of Divine Wind Academy, a peak Saint Domain expert.
“Yes, President!” said Fei Hou, the head of the teaching department, respectfully.
“What do you all think?” Ou Yangming turned to look at the people seated there.
“President, this person dares to infiltrate our academy and even injure our students in the inner courtyard. He clearly disrespects Divine Wind Academy. I suggest killing him!” said a middle-aged man with dark hair sitting at Ou Yangming’s lower left, his gaze fierce.
Besides Ou Yangming as the academy president, there were four vice presidents, and below them were the academy’s board members. This middle-aged man with dark hair was one of the vice presidents, Yuan Han, whose strength was only slightly less than Ou Yangming’s—he was also a peak Saint Domain expert.
“Exactly, President. If this gets out, what reputation will Divine Wind Academy still have? Won’t other factions laugh at us?” said Chang Hai, another vice president, sitting below Yuan Han.
After Yuan Han and Chang Hai spoke, the others also voiced their agreement, with most supporting the idea of killing this person.

Standing there, Fei Hou, the head of the Teaching Department, opened his mouth as if about to speak. Seeing this, Ouyang Ming turned to him and said, “Fei Hou, go ahead.” “Yes, Dean. I heard the other party is a young man, around twenty years old. In my opinion, we should handle this matter carefully,” Fei Hou said. “What? Around twenty?!?” Everyone in the hall was shocked. Earlier, Fei Hou hadn’t mentioned the other party’s age, so no one had thought much of it. But a Saint Domain expert around twenty years old—what did that mean? Everyone understood. “A Saint Domain expert around twenty?” Ouyang Ming frowned. The hall fell silent for a moment. “Hmph! So what if it’s a Saint Domain expert at twenty?! Even if he’s a prince from one of the three great empires, if he kills someone at Divine Wind Academy, he still has to give an explanation!” At that moment, Yuan Han broke the silence, his expression dark. Yet, despite his words, he no longer seemed as confident as before. Of course, what he said made no sense. Even if a prince from one of the three great empires killed someone at Divine Wind Academy, the emperors of those three empires would still have to give an explanation to Divine Wind Academy. After all, the emperors of those three empires had once been students at Divine Wind Academy. “Indeed, Dean. We can’t just let this go!” Chang Hai also spoke in agreement. Ouyang Ming glanced at everyone and then turned to Fei Hou, asking, “Is the other party still in the library?” “Yes, Dean,” Fei Hou replied respectfully. Ouyang Ming pondered for a moment before saying, “In that case, Yuan Han, lead the academy’s elite enforcement team to the library and capture him first. If necessary, injure him seriously, but remember—don’t kill him! He clearly doesn’t take Divine Wind Academy seriously at all. He entered the academy, injured one of its students, and still stays around as if nothing happened. I think we really need to teach him a lesson.” “Yes, Dean!” Yuan Han nodded, a cold glint in his eyes. Immediately, he left the meeting hall and assembled Divine Wind Academy’s elite enforcement team to head to the library. Divine Wind Academy’s enforcement team was divided into three levels: low, medium, and elite. The elite enforcement team consisted of 300 members, all being experts from the late ninth level to the peak of the ninth level. Even without Yuan Han, in Ouyang Ming’s view, this force was sufficient to capture the other party. At around twenty years old, even if he was in the Saint Domain, he could only be at the early stages! Inside Divine Wind Academy’s library, Huang Long was still busy searching for the reasons behind the downfall of the Four Seas Empire, unaware of everything going on outside. Of course, he didn’t want to know either.
