Early in the morning.
Nan Luo City, the secret stronghold of the Black Net.
In the huge hall, a light screen showed the scene of the forest on the outskirts of the city. It was the place where Qiu Jinxuan was attacked.
The scene on the light screen kept changing. There was no trace of blood on the ground. The people sent by the Black Net were all missing.
"Qiu Jinxuan returned to the Qiu Clan at midnight …"
Hearing this report, the graceful woman sitting in front of the table suddenly slammed the table, her eyes filled with ice-cold killing intent.
"The arrangements were so thorough, how could they fail?" The graceful woman asked.
All around, the members of the Black Net were silent, not daring to make a sound. The graceful woman was usually very generous to her subordinates.
However, when she was angry, she was even more terrible than the leader. They must not provoke her.
After a moment …
The graceful woman calmed down and said, "Analyze the reason for the failure. What happened?"
"Reporting to Deputy Leader. In order to stop Qiu Jinxuan, we sent out elites. Logically, even ten Qiu Jinxuan would not be able to stop him. However, our people did not even leave a hair behind. This shows that the opponent's strength is at least in the fourth realm. "
"The only explanation is that the Qiu Clan Patriarch sent people to protect Qiu Jinxuan."
"After all, for the Qiu Clan, every heir candidate is very important. It is related to the future of the Qiu Clan, so it is normal to send experts to protect them."
…
Hearing this report, the graceful woman nodded and murmured, "That old man from the Qiu Clan seems to not have much time left. It is normal for him to be so anxious about the heir candidate."
"However, if Qiu Jinxuan escapes, it will be difficult to kill him again."
On the side, someone stood up and said, "Deputy Leader. Don't worry, we have already made arrangements for Qiu Gucheng. As long as he can become the only heir of the Qiu Clan, our goal has been achieved. "
"Oh? Are you sure … "The graceful woman asked.
"Deputy Leader, please look."
The man took out a box and opened it. There was a potion inside, like a blue crystal, exuding a strange luster.
There was a burst of exclamations. Several people present recognized that this was the [Top Level Thinking Potion]. The Heart Yuan Priest Guild of the Western Continent limited it to one thousand every year.
This was a big investment!
Everyone present sighed and nodded in agreement. With the [Top Level Thinking Potion], the Qiu Clan Patriarch could easily stand out in the test.
"Let's follow this plan …"
The graceful woman nodded. She looked at Qiu Jinxuan's information on the screen and said, "When this is over, find a chance to make this kid disappear. Don't leave behind any hidden dangers … "
Everyone present agreed.
Standing up, the graceful woman left the hall and came to a room. Looking at the gradually brightening sky outside, she frowned and muttered, "Strange! Why do I feel a little uneasy? Is there a problem in that segment … "
…
Early morning.
On the top floor of Lanluo Hotel, Hayashi River was sitting cross-legged. The Psychic Force was circulating around him, and an invisible force lifted him up into the air.
The veins on his exposed arms, arms, and neck were wriggling. His Heart Elemental Energy moved like a snake, forming a physical lock pattern on his palm.
Hayashi River's forehead was covered in sweat. After an unknown period of time, he exhaled.
"Dan 3-dan Heart Master … His cultivation speed sure is fast!"
During this period of time, he did not deliberately cultivate. This was because when he opened the mine, he absorbed too much fire energy waves.
In the past few months, Hayashi River had a laissez-faire attitude towards the improvement of the Psychic Force. He let his body digest the energy waves step by step.
In the confrontation last night, he was a sniper and the Phantom of the Void Bones was a close-range assault. The combination of the two did not require much effort, but he did not expect the Psychic Force to have a breakthrough.
"This is not only because of the absorption of fire energy, but also because of the additional two Heart Element Locks."
The shadow of the Mossy Bone appeared and sized up Hayashi River. He was not surprised by this young man's improvement.
In his opinion, Hayashi River's improvement speed was natural.
With enough talent, accumulation, and training in the best techniques, it would not be strange for him to reach the fourth realm at the age of 20.
Hayashi River shook his head. Reaching the fourth realm at the age of 20, this would break the cultivation record of the continent.
Of course, if he did not say it, no one would know …
"Wake up, you lazy cat! You've slept for a day … "
Hayashi River poked the Blue Kitty. From yesterday until now, this little guy had been half asleep.
"Meow …"
The Blue Kitty turned over and rubbed its head with its two paws. It was actually very strange. Why did it sleep for so long?
Could it be that it was new to Nanluo City and was not acclimatized …
Hayashi River curled his lips. Acclimatized? This lazy cat simply wanted to sleep in.
He remembered that he had done experiments in the lab for a day and a night. This little guy slept for so long until it woke up hungry.
Grunt …
The Blue Kitty: "(⊙ o ⊙) …"
The little guy's stomach made a sound. It looked at its master with innocent eyes. It was hungry.
Hayashi River: "(ー `′ ー)"
If this lazy cat continued like this, it would really become useless …
"Forget it. It's still a baby, not even one year old … "The Mossy Bone said in a cat lover's tone.
Hayashi River retorted. A one-year-old cat was no longer a baby!
The Blue Kitty meowed. But it was not a real meow! In terms of human age, wasn't it a one-year-old baby a baby?
It was just a baby cat that wasn't even a year old yet. Shouldn't it eat and sleep, sleep and then eat?
Hayashi River gritted his teeth. This twisted logic was so reasonable that he was speechless.
"Grunt …"
This time, it was Hayashi River's stomach that made a sound. The Psychic Force had just broken through, so it was easy for him to feel hungry.
What should he eat …
Turning on the communicator, Hayashi River browsed through the messages in the group. He saw that many students had gone to visit Monitor yesterday.
"Since I'm free today, I'll go visit Monitor and get a meal!"
In the academy, Hayashi River often got a meal from Monitor. Thinking about it, he felt a little guilty. After returning to Nanluo City, he hadn't visited Monitor Wang Zheng.
"Let's go. Little Meow, I'll take you to eat delicious food. Monitor's cooking is delicious. "
Putting the Blue Kitty in his pocket, Hayashi River sent a message to Lu Xiong, asking him to come over when he was free.
Then, he left the hotel, took a private taxi, and went to a vegetable market in Nanluo City.
There, Hayashi River bought 20 catties of black sea prawns. This was a kind of sea prawn caught at the estuary of Nanluo City.
Black sea prawns were as long as a forearm and had a shiny black shell. This was a specialty of Nanluo City.
Of course, even if it was a specialty, this kind of prawn was still very expensive. It cost 30 silver coins per catty, so 20 catties was equivalent to 6 gold coins.
For a social animal who had just graduated, it was equivalent to two months' salary. Giving it to Monitor to burn showed his sincerity.
Of course, it was mainly because Hayashi River wanted to eat it. When he was in Nanro College, he had eaten black sea prawns once. The taste was really unforgettable.
However, for students, black sea prawns were too expensive. How could they afford to eat them?
This time, it was a good opportunity for Hayashi River to eat to his heart's content.
"Is 20 catties enough?"
Hayashi River thought for a moment. If Lu Xiong, that big eater, and other students came, it would definitely not be enough.
So, Hayashi River bought another 30 catties and put them in a box.
He had already thought of an excuse. If Monitor asked, he would say that he had saved up for half a year just to see Monitor. It would be considered a sign of sincerity.
Carrying the box, Hayashi River took a taxi to Monitor Wang Zheng's residence.
Wang Zheng's residential area was not far from Nanro College. It was a welfare house for faculty and staff. It was sold to faculty and staff at half the market price.
In a place like Nanluo City where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, this treatment was excellent.
He went up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door. A loud voice came from inside. After the door opened, a middle-aged man with a medium build and a bald head appeared. It was Monitor Wang Zheng.
"Monitor Wang, long time no see!" Hayashi River said with a smile.
"Call me Teacher Wang! Monitor, Monitor, do you think I'm a chef? "Wang Zheng scolded with a smile and called Hayashi River in. He didn't seem to be unfamiliar with Hayashi River at all.
Hayashi River agreed and went in with the box. He gave it to Wang Zheng and said that it was a gift for the old man.
"Black sea prawns, you have a conscience."
Wang Zheng glanced at Hayashi River and grinned. "Let's have a drink at noon."
Wang Zheng took the box and took it to the kitchen. Hayashi River was very familiar with this place.
He took the Blue Kitty out, took a plate and put some food on it.
These were the snacks that Wang Zheng had made himself. Lan Xiaomiao ate a little and was very satisfied. She meowed happily.
Entering the kitchen, Hayashi River saw Wang Zheng skillfully drawing the prawn line. He took a stool and sat on the side. Looking at Wang Zheng's ruddy face, he didn't seem to be affected at all.
"Kid, after you graduated, you bought such expensive black sea prawns for me. Didn't you buy anything for your family? I'm afraid this will cost you three to four months of salary. "
Wang Zheng reprimanded while processing the prawns.
Being a teacher was like this. With just a few words, he could talk about teaching others tirelessly.
"I don't know where my parents went on a trip. Even if I want to buy something, there's no place to send it. Anyway, I've always been free-range and don't need to care about my family … "
His family situation was rather unique. His parents brought up the principle that boys should be raised freely to the fullest, so there was no need to mention it.
"Monitor, I thought you'd stay at home with a sad face. I didn't expect you to live a good life. You look like you've gained some weight … "Lin Chuan teased.
"What can happen to me!"
Wang Zheng snorted and said, "If I'm sad, isn't that what Baldy Fang wants? Besides, even if he brings out the Secretary General of the Consul to pressure me, what can he do to me? Even if the Consul comes, can he make me lose my job? "
"I'm a teacher at Nanro College, not a civil servant of his office. He doesn't have that power …"
Listening to Monitor's nagging, Hayashi River smiled. It seemed that Wang Zheng was really fine. He was still as eloquent as before.
"Besides, even if I can't make it in Nanro College, I'll just change places. In the past, the Royal College in Da Xingao County even invited me … "
Hearing this, Hayashi River asked, "Is it really the Royal College in Da Xingao County? Not another college? The Royal College's standards are very strict. "
"No one will think you're mute even if you don't speak! Bring me a basin. "Wang Zhen flew into a rage out of humiliation.
Hayashi River smiled and brought a basin over. Listening to Monitor's nagging, it was as if he had returned to the college. Nothing seemed to have changed.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Hayashi River went to open the door. Lu Xiong stood outside like a wall.
"You bastard, you've grown taller! Don't break Monitor's door. "Hayashi River said.
"What do you know? My body shape is that of a real man!"
Lu Xiong laughed and scolded him. He came in with a gift.
What surprised Hayashi River was that behind Lu Xiong, there was a beauty — Ai Yun.
"You two came together …"
Hayashi River looked at their unnatural expressions and was a little stunned. A series of things came to his mind. Could it be that they had made some progress after the gathering yesterday?
