"Pu!"
Luo Qiqi nearly fainted on the spot.
However, with her sharp mind, she was able to understand the other party's intentions in an instant, and a bitter smile appeared on her face.
Her teacher was a good person, just that his thoughts were a little too bizarre at times, leaving her at a loss as to whether she should laugh or cry.
"Xuanxuan?" Hu Yaoyao was taken aback by Luo Qiqi's words.
Fearing that the other party would misunderstand, Luo Qiqi hurriedly replied, "He's my apothecary teacher, Zhang Xuan!"
"Zhang Xuan? You're the freshman who ruined the business of our student academies? "
Hearing that name, Hu Yaoyao finally came to a realization. A glint flashed across her dark eyes, and a hint of a smile surfaced on her flawless face. She seemed to be assessing the fellow before her carefully to see what was so special about him that he could put so many seniors in such a disadvantageous position.
It could be said that ever since the establishment of the Master Teacher Academy, there had never been a freshman who broke the rules and caused so many student academies to fail without earning a single cent.
Taking a closer look, Hu Yaoyao realized that the young man before her had a simple and honest appearance, completely different from the rumors. She couldn't help but be perplexed.
"You said that... he's your apothecary teacher? What's going on? "
Hu Yaoyao turned to look at Luo Qiqi.
Luo Qiqi was ranked on the Campus Belle Board just like her, but her current ranking was lower than hers. It wasn't because she wasn't beautiful, but because her age and cultivation were beneath hers. She didn't possess the disposition of a femme fatale.
As long as she was allowed to grow, it would only be a matter of time before she surpassed her.
As such, Hu Yaoyao had already taken notice of this young lady.
To think that such an outstanding person would actually claim that Zhang Xuan was her apothecary teacher.
"Zhang Shi imparted pill forging to me!" Luo Qiqi nodded. Deciding not to pursue the matter any further, she continued, "Since you know the location of Elder Wu Yangzi's old residence, can you tell me the details? As long as it's true, I'll exchange it for two Academic Credits."
"Two Academic Credits? I don't need them!"
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to speak, Hu Yaoyao knew that there was no point in pursuing the matter any further. Thus, she shook her head.
"You don't need them?" Luo Qiqi frowned.
The Tower of Help was a transaction as well. Since the other party had accepted the offer, what did it mean by saying that she didn't need them?
"Yes, I can tell you the location of Elder Wu Yangzi's old residence, but … you have to tell me why you are paying such a huge price to find this place!"
Hu Yaoyao stroked her hair as she looked at Zhang Xuan with a smile on her face.
Wu Yangzi had been missing for more than two thousand years. Over the years, countless people had passed through his former residence. Even if there were any treasures, they would have long been plundered clean.
Luo Qiqi was actually willing to spend two academic credits to purchase information. This left her bewildered, and she wanted to know the reason behind it.
"I'm afraid I can't tell you that!"
Luo Qiqi shook his head.
Wu Yangzi was the most famous refining grandmaster in the history of the Hongyuan Empire. The treasures he collected in his life were extremely precious.
Once this news got out, not to mention them, even if Director Zhao came out, he might not be able to withstand the pressure.
"Oh?"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling to speak, Hu Yaoyao was stunned for a moment before she said, "Since you refuse to speak, it means that you don't agree to our deal. Thus, I won't tell you the location of the old residence. To tell you the truth, I am the only one who knows about this place. If you don't trade with me, you won't be able to find it even if you flip through all of the books in the academy! "
"Then there's no way we can trade with you!" Luo Qiqi rejected.
After saying those words, she turned to look at Zhang Xuan, and upon seeing the latter nod in agreement, she clasped her fist and said, "My apologies for disturbing you, senior. We'll be taking our leave now!"
After saying those words, she walked out of the gazebo with Zhang Xuan.
She couldn't speak about Wu Yangzi's treasure. That was her bottom line.
She would rather not find the old residence than speak about it.
"Wait a moment …"
Seeing that Luo Qiqi would rather give up on the deal than speak about it, Hu Yaoyao's lips curled up into a smile. "Since you don't want to speak about it, I'll change my condition!"
"I'd like to hear the details!" Luo Qiqi paused.
"How about this … Zhang Xuan has offended me. As long as you hand him over to me, I'll bring you to Wu Yangzi's old residence!"
Hu Yaoyao said.
"Hand him over to you?"
Luo Qiqi frowned as her face darkened. "Hu Yaoyao, I respect you as my senior, and I've been polite to you. Yet, you insulted my teacher. What do you mean by that? "
She had already introduced Zhang Xuan as her teacher, but the other party still wanted her to hand him over. This was no different from a slap to her face!
A teacher for a day, a father for life!
As a student, if she couldn't even protect her teacher's dignity, what right did she have to live on?
"Oh … Please don't misunderstand. Even though Zhang Xuan is your teacher, he's still a Grade-1 student in the academy … I apologize for my rudeness!"
Realizing that there was something wrong with her words, Hu Yaoyao hurriedly apologized.
In the Master Teacher Continent, the heritage of one's teacher was extremely important.
Even the heavens and earth were close to one's teacher.
In this world, the standing of a teacher was comparable to that of one's parents. Even emperors were inferior to them.
She had only thought that Zhang Xuan was a Grade-1 student, but she had forgotten that he was Luo Qiqi's teacher. Insulting a teacher before a student was an extremely disrespectful act.
If news of this were to spread, her reputation would be tarnished.
After saying those words, she turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "Zhang Shi, since you're here with Luo Qiqi, I believe that you would like to know the location of Elder Wu Yangzi's old residence as well … As long as you agree to my conditions, I'll tell you the location. What do you think?"
"Conditions? What conditions? "
Zhang Xuan didn't think that this fellow would be scheming against him. He couldn't help but chuckle.
"Simple. You've ruined the Bewitching Devil Faction's opportunity to earn money. As long as you agree to join us, we'll earn you a hundred thousand middle-tier spirit stones within a year! I'll tell you what you want to know. "
Hu Yaoyao smiled.
"Bewitching Devil Faction?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback. "That's your faction?"
There were many Grade-5 seniors in the academy who would form their own factions. He had heard of the Bewitching Devil Faction before, but he found it a little bizarre. Judging from the tone of the young lady before him, it seemed like it had something to do with her.
Seeing that her teacher was confused, Luo Qiqi sent a telepathic message to him. "Hu Yaoyao. Her name is Yao, and she's a femme fatale. Thus … her faction calls itself the Bewitching Devil Faction!"
"That's right!" Seeing that her teacher didn't know what to say, Hu Yaoyao was a little speechless.
To offend so many factions without even knowing who their leader was, this fellow sure was gutsy.
"Oh!"
Zhang Xuan nodded. He turned to the young lady whose seductive figure made one's breathing hasten. "I'm not interested in joining your faction … As for earning money, I don't even have a hundred thousand middle-tier spirit stones with me … How am I supposed to earn that much for you? Why don't you change your conditions? "
He was a person who would lose money if he didn't pick it up while walking. Asking him for money? You must be joking!
"Change your conditions? That's fine too! " Hu Yaoyao stretched her back lazily. "If you become my servant for a year, I'll forgive you for offending our Bewitching Devil Faction. At the same time, I'll tell you about the matter regarding Elder Wu Yangzi's old residence!"
"Servant?"
Zhang Xuan was rendered speechless. This woman was getting more and more naive the more he thought about it.
Shaking his head, he said, "I don't even want you to become my maid, yet you want me to become your servant? You sure are daring …"
He was speaking the truth. The other party was just a little more beautiful than him, but compared to Lozosy, she was still far from being a match for him.
He wouldn't even agree to such a person becoming his maid, and yet, she wanted him to become her servant? She sure knew how to dream.
"Then there's nothing I can do about it … I hope that you'll be able to find the place by yourselves!"
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to accept her offer and even said that she would become his maid, Hu Yaoyao's face reddened in anger, and she flung her sleeves furiously.
She was a talented and beautiful lady who was sought after by countless master teachers, and she had always been a proud person. She thought that she was already giving the other party face by accepting him as her servant, but who could have thought that this fellow would be so ungrateful?
He really didn't know how to appreciate her kindness.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and took a step forward in the hall, flying straight into the distance.
Her cultivation had reached Transcendent Mortal 9-dan Chrysalis realm, and with a swift movement, she disappeared from the sight of the duo in the blink of an eye.
The Bewitching Devil Faction was one of the larger factions in the Master Teacher Academy. As the leader of the faction, she didn't lack Academic Credits or spirit stones.
The reason why she wanted Zhang Xuan to join them was because that fellow had embarrassed the seniors of the academy. If she could succeed, her reputation would surely soar, and countless people would be envious of her.
Just that … that fellow didn't know how to appreciate her kindness.
She was the leader of the Bewitching Devil Faction, a Transcendent Mortal 9-dan expert, and a Grade 5 student of the Master Teacher Academy.
Seeing that the other party had left, Luo Qiqi turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "She's the leader of the Bewitching Devil Faction. I heard that she paid a heavy price in order to compile the information of the Master Teacher Academy, but in the end, she didn't manage to get anything out of it. She must be holding a grudge against you … She was just trying to humiliate you earlier, so I hope that you won't take it to heart …"
"It's fine!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head with a smile. "That fellow sure is arrogant. How about this, leave her to me. I'll find a way to get her to reveal the location of Wu Yangzi's old residence!"
"Leave her to you?"
Luo Qiqi frowned. "Hu Yaoyao is an extremely prideful and resourceful person. I'm afraid that it'll be difficult to get her to reveal the location of Wu Yangzi's old residence …"
Hu Yaoyao was an extremely prideful person. Many people had tried to cause trouble for her, but they had all ended up suffering great losses.
For her teacher to get her to reveal the location of Wu Yangzi's old residence … That would be difficult!
"It's fine. You should return to my residence in the Elite Sector and wait for me there. I'll be back soon!"
Zhang Xuan instructed with a faint smile. Activating his Eye of Insight, he swiftly followed the trail that Hu Yaoyao had left behind.
In any case, the Bewitching Devil Faction was already bearing a grudge against him. No matter what he did, it would be impossible for him to maintain a good relationship with them. Since that was the case, he might as well find another solution.
"Teacher …"
Seeing Zhang Xuan turning around to leave, Luo Qiqi was stunned for a moment before hurriedly shouting, "Senior Yaoyao is from the Terpsichore School … They specialize in soul attacks, so you must be careful!"
By the time she shouted those words, Zhang Xuan had already walked far away. Most likely, he hadn't heard her words.
