I am able to achieve this through little bit of Jquery knowledge. first I copied the Collapsible accordion inside collapsible body then give submenu a dummy class then written small jquery function to change the icon.
sidenav
<li>
<a class="collapsible-header waves-effect arrow-r">
<i class="far fa-hand-pointer"></i>
Instruction<i class="fas fa-angle-down rotate-icon"></i>
</a>
<div class="collapsible-body">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="#" class="waves-effect">For bloggers</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="waves-effect">For authors</a>
</li>
</ul>
<ul class="collapsible collapsible-accordion MySubMenu">
<li>
<a class="collapsible-header waves-effect arrow-r"><i class="far fa-eye"></i> About<i class="fas fa-angle-down rotate-icon"></i></a>
<div class="collapsible-body">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="#" class="waves-effect">Sub Introduction</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="waves-effect">SUb Monthly meetings</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</li>
then a jquery function
$('.collapsible-body .collapsible ').on('click', function (event) {
if ($(this).children('li.active').length > 0) {
$('ul.MySubMenu li.active a.collapsible-header i.rotate-icon').removeClass('fa-angle-down').addClass('fa-angle-up');
}
else
{
$('ul.MySubMenu li a.collapsible-header i.rotate-icon').addClass('fa-angle-down').removeClass('fa-angle-up');
}
});
then some CSS
.side-nav .fa-angle-up.rotate-icon {
position: absolute;
top: .8rem;
right: 0;
margin-right: 1.25rem;
}
Finally I am able to create the desired submenu I was looking for
