Not long after Zhou Wen entered the game and before he reached the lotus pond, a notification popped up in-game: 'Silver-Winged Flying Ant is hungry.'
The notification quickly vanished. Zhou Wen ignored it and continued walking forward, but to his surprise, the system would automatically notify him every ten minutes.
This fellow feeds on Companion Beasts, but how can Companion Eggs drop so easily? Zhou Wen felt somewhat depressed, but all he could do was ignore it.
If Zhou Wen was rich, he could buy Companion Eggs to feed the Silver-Winged Flying Ant, but he wasn't rich. The living expenses Zhou Lingfeng gave him were only enough for his daily expenses. He didn't have the spare money to buy Companion Eggs.
I should grind the instance dungeons a few more times. Zhou Wen controlled the blood-colored avatar to storm into the lotus pond.
At that moment, a video went viral on Sunset College's campus Intranet. It was a video of Zhou Wen and Li Xuan joining forces to kill the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus.
It was unknown which student had recorded the video, but it clearly recorded the entire process from a bystander's point of view.
However, the video had clearly been edited. The entire video only ended with Zhou Wen summoning Silver Wing and flying with Li Xuan.
"Seriously, isn't Li Xuan the prodigal son of the Li family? How can he be so strong? He summoned three Legendary Companion Beasts at the Mortal stage and even slayed the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus that so many Legendary seniors in school can't? "
"Li Xuan is too cool!"
"The other freshman isn't bad either. Although he's a little weaker, he has two Companion Beasts. However, why do those two Companion Beasts look so unfamiliar? I don't think I've seen them before. Are they at the Mortal stage or the Legendary stage?"
Li Xuan was completely popular. Due to Li Xuan's fame, Zhou Wen didn't attract much attention.
The video appeared on Qiao Siyuan's desk computer. He sat in front of the computer and watched it several times with his arms crossed.
"Did you notice anything?" Qiao Siyuan asked Liz.
"Li Xuan is very strong. This fellow is quite interesting. He acted really well in the past. None of the three brothers of the Li family are easy to deal with. Thankfully, the eldest had bad luck and died early. Otherwise, there might have been a chance to shake the An family's standing in Luoyang." Liz watched it several times as well, but Qiao Siyuan remained silent. She had long lost her patience.
Qiao Siyuan shook his head slightly. "That's not what I'm talking about. Have you noticed Zhou Wen?"
"Naturally. Although Li Xuan is very strong, the commander should be Zhou Wen," Liz said.
Qiao Siyuan stared at the computer screen as his eyes lit up. "No, I'm not talking about that. Look carefully. Zhou Wen has done three consecutive jumps with all his might. Such a jump would probably be difficult even for you and me to complete without the support of a special Primordial Energy Skill or Primordial Energy Art."
Liz was slightly taken aback as she looked carefully again. Gradually, a look of surprise appeared on her face. Indeed, without the support of a Primordial Energy Skill or Primordial Energy Art, it's very difficult for a human's body to complete three consecutive jumps under gravity. He clearly didn't use a Primordial Energy Skill, which means his Primordial Energy Art is extraordinary …
"Isn't it written on the information? He cultivates the Ascetic Meditation and has been cultivating it for many years, "Qiao Siyuan said.
"But Ascetic Meditation is a Primordial Energy Art that focuses on Strength and Constitution. It doesn't have the characteristic of continuous bursts. From the looks of it, Zhou Wen has hidden it well. It's unlikely he cultivates in Ascetic Meditation," Liz said.
To her surprise, Qiao Siyuan said with certainty, "No, I'm very certain that Zhou Wen cultivates in Ascetic Meditation. At the very least, he was definitely cultivating in Ascetic Meditation before we met him in Guide City."
"Why?" Liz was somewhat puzzled.
"Don't tell me you didn't carefully size up a youth who suddenly appeared under those circumstances? Back then, his skin was slightly yellow and his eyes seemed to have a dark golden luster. Those are the characteristics of someone who cultivates in Ascetic Meditation for a long period of time. Back then, he must have cultivated in Ascetic Meditation for several years, but now, those characteristics can't be seen on him, "Qiao Siyuan said.
"But it hasn't been many days since we met him in Guide City. In such a short period of time, even if he cultivates in another Primordial Energy Art, it's unlikely that he can completely replace the Ascetic Meditation he cultivated for several years, right? At the very least, the characteristics of his body will slowly deteriorate. It's impossible for it to completely disappear in a short period of time. "
"That's the problem. Zhou Wen met Jing Daoxian, and not long after that, the Ascetic Meditation Primordial Energy Art he cultivated in for several years was replaced by another Primordial Energy Art. And not long after that, the An family gave the spot that originally belonged to An Jing to Zhou Wen. Is there a connection?" Qiao Siyuan rapped the table with his fingers as he slowly said.
Liz's body trembled. "Minister, are you saying that the An family and the devil, Jing Daoxian, have some sort of connection?"
"No, I never said that. However, Zhou Wen is indeed abnormal. Perhaps something happened between him and Jing Daoxian. To change a Primordial Energy Art he cultivated in for several years in such a short period of time is something few people can do. It can be said that there are only a handful of people in the League, and Jing Daoxian happens to be one of them, "Qiao Siyuan said.
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean that Zhou Wen is Jing Daoxian's accomplice? We should bring him back for interrogation as soon as possible. "Liz's eyes lit up.
"There's indeed a need for that. However, this is Luoyang, not our headquarters in the capital," Qiao Siyuan said with a sigh.
"We can apply for a cross-district arrest warrant from the higher-ups. Sunset College wouldn't dare stop us from arresting him," Liz said.
"Sunset College wouldn't dare, but there's someone who dares," Qiao Siyuan said indifferently.
"An Tianzuo? That can't be, right? He dares to openly defy the League's laws? "Liz frowned.
"He really dares," Qiao Siyuan said with certainty.
After a moment of silence, Qiao Siyuan added, "However, from An Jing and An Tianzuo's attitude, they must be very displeased that Zhou Wen took away the spot that should've belonged to An Jing. Otherwise, the mighty Overseer An wouldn't have deliberately criticized an ordinary high school student while patrolling Guide City. An Jing also wouldn't have specially transferred to Guide High School to beat Zhou Wen up."
"Then what do you mean, Minister?" Liz probed.
"Immediately apply for a cross-district arrest warrant and bring Zhou Wen back immediately. We have to be fast. When the time comes, even if the An family receives the news and wants to rescue him, we should have already gotten everything we want to know. Besides, An Tianzuo might not want to rescue him," Qiao Siyuan said indifferently.
