Chapter 209 Breaking Through the Barrier, Apologizing
the next day.
Xiao Weiqing got a replacement bracelet and contacted Ning Xing immediately, but received no reply.
He then called Wei Lan to let her know he was safe.
Second floor of the Talent Tower.
"Ye Pingping? Aren't you on the first floor?"
Ye Pingping said, "Hehe...the points for part-time jobs on the second floor are higher, and there are more opportunities to meet senior students, making it easier to develop clients."
"sharp!"
"And you?"
"Here to exchange for Shen Yun materials?"
How did you know?
"You won first place in the exchange competition, and the Shen Yun prize is so enviable. Besides, the second floor only handles Shen Yun business."
Xiao Weiqing nodded and said, "Help me exchange for 300 units of Divine Essence."
"Okay, which Shen Yun substance do you want?"
"Let's go with the fire elemental crystal."
Ye Pingping quickly tapped the holographic screen, "Come on, swipe your bracelet."
A few minutes later.
The transaction has been completed.
"It will be delivered to your villa tomorrow afternoon, and you will need to sign for it in person."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome."
after that.
Xiao Weiqing headed straight for the Spirit Tower.
This trip to the Samsung ruins made him realize how vast the world is. If someone had told him about gods before, he would have scoffed at it.
But now.
He chickened out.
Its terrifying size and destructive aura, capable of surviving in the universe, and the ability to annihilate the temple of the three-star civilization with just a single finger—it would be no exaggeration to call someone a god with such power.
For a whole month, Xiao Weiqing used up all 1000 Divine Essences from the exchange competition.
......
Samadhi True Fire: (1492/10000) strands
......
Ziwei Courtyard, canteen.
"Xiao Weiqing, are you alright?"
"I have a feeling you're about to catch fire."
Xiao Weiqing looked up at Fei Xiaobao, a flash of fire seemingly appearing in his eyes.
"It's alright, it'll be fine in a few days."
"real?"
"Ever since you came back, you've been nowhere to be seen. What have you been up to?"
"Cultivation."
Xiao Weiqing left with the plate.
They left the Ziwei Courtyard and headed straight for the Spirit Tower.
The 26th floor of the Spirit Tower.
Compared to the lower level, this lobby is much more spacious and refined, and also offers drinks and snacks.
Enter a cultivation room.
"The Jiaji Pass, today is the day."
......
evening.
Xiao Weiqing returned to the villa.
"You've broken through the Jiaji point?"
"Teacher Qian, what are you doing here?"
"Answer my question first. You've definitely broken through the Jiaji Pass; the fluctuations in spiritual energy can't be hidden. But kid, what happened to you?"
"The energy within my body is leaking out uncontrollably."
Suppressing her surprise, Qian Yi circled around Xiao Weiqing, looking him up and down.
"Perhaps my strength breakthrough was a bit too fast; it'll be fine in a few days."
"Little monster!"
"Teacher Qian, is there something you need?"
Qian Yi nodded and said seriously, "It wasn't me who contacted you; someone else asked me to contact you."
"Come with me."
A meeting room in the freshman teaching building.
Qian Yi led Xiao Weiqing through the door.
Inside the reception room, a round table was set up, with four people sitting opposite it.
The second-year upper house dean, Chu Bo, his mentor Zhou Weihua, and a woman who seemed to have held a high position for a long time, whose aura appeared even stronger than Chu Bo's. Zhou Yan was standing next to the woman.
I met Zhou Yan.
Xiao Weiqing's face immediately turned cold.
The four people opposite them saw everything.
Chu Bo spoke first, "Xiao Weiqing, come, sit down quickly."
"Qian Yi, please sit down. Let's sit down and talk."
Seeing that Xiao Weiqing remained unmoved and was only staring intently at Zhou Yan, Qian Yi felt helpless and had no choice but to reach out and pull Xiao Weiqing down to sit.
Chu Bo said, "Xiao Weiqing, you won first place in the national exchange competition two months ago, which raised the school's ranking by several places."
"True heroes emerge from among the young. Your entry into Luojiang Academy is a great honor for our academy."
Xiao Weiqing said, "Dean Chu, you flatter me. Please speak frankly."
Chu Bo gave Zhou Weihua a wink.
Zhou Weihua said, "Xiao Weiqing, the Great Xia suffered heavy losses this time entering the Three Star Civilization Ruins. Of the hundred geniuses who went in, less than thirty returned. You and Zhou Yan were able to return safely, which can be considered as having gone through hardships together..."
"Sharing hardships?"
"With him??!!!"
Xiao Weiqing interrupted Zhou Weihua coldly.
When Zhou Weihua saw Xiao Weiqing's attitude, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
But he still smiled and continued:
"I think there's some misunderstanding between you regarding the ruins?"
"We're all members of Luojiang Academy. Some things can be easily resolved by turning a big issue into a small one, and a small one into nothing at all. What do you think?"
Xiao Weiqing snorted coldly, "Misunderstanding?"
No, there's no misunderstanding.
Seeing that Xiao Weiqing was so tactless,
Zhou Weihua was furious and said, "Xiao Weiqing, we know what happened. Zhou Yan did indeed make some mistakes, and that was his fault."
"Zhou Yan, apologize!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan reluctantly stood up and gritted his teeth, saying:
"Xiao Weiqing, what happened before was my fault, I'm sorry!"
After speaking, Zhou Yan immediately sat down, his face becoming even more gloomy.
Xiao Weiqing scoffed, "So?"
"Is a simple 'sorry' all it takes?"
At this time.
"snort!"
The woman, who had remained silent until now, snorted coldly, "Xiao Weiqing, is it? I am an old acquaintance of your teacher. Let's drop this matter."
The woman's words sounded more like an order than a suggestion.
"An old acquaintance?"
Xiao Weiqing hesitated for a moment before asking, "May I ask who you are?"
"I am Zhou Yan's mother."
In the next ten seconds, countless versions of melodramatic plots flashed through Xiao Weiqing's mind.
The male protagonist is his teacher, Ning Xing, and the female protagonist is the woman opposite him.
"If that's the case, things will be difficult to handle," Xiao Weiqing thought to himself.
Then Xiao Weiqing looked at Qian Yi and gave her a questioning look.
Qian Yi tilted her head, not understanding what Xiao Weiqing meant.
Xiao Weiqing raised an eyebrow again, glanced at the woman, and beckoned her with his thumbs.
Qian Yi looked puzzled, somewhat amused and exasperated, and quickly shook her head. If this got out, Luojiang Academy would become a laughing stock.
Xiao Weiqing gave her another reassuring look, and Qian Yi rolled her eyes but nodded firmly.
in this way.
Xiao Weiqing was relieved. That's right.
This woman has no shame, but she has a great figure. How could her teacher possibly be interested in her?
"Now that you are Zhou Yan's mother, things will be much easier."
"As the saying goes, if a child is not taught, it is the mother's fault. What do you suggest we do? Or, I can have the teacher talk to you later. Anyway, you and the teacher know each other."
"you!"
The woman was furious. If she could talk to that old scoundrel Ning Xing, would she have come here in person?
"Fifty squares of divine essence, consider it compensation," the woman said.
Xiao Weiqing scoffed, "Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?"
"Do you know what Zhou Yan took from me?"
The woman said, "We have studied that thing; it is just a vessel and has nothing special about it."
"Then give me back my things first."
The woman added, "That thing was obtained by Yan'er after a life-or-death struggle; it's good to keep it as a memento."
"Then there's nothing to discuss. You should keep the 50 Shenyun tablets for Zhou Yan. Of course, I hope he can find a use for them."
"Kid, are you threatening me? Who do you think you're talking to?"
The woman no longer concealed her true feelings; her eyes turned cold.
