141: Rogue, what a fucking rogue!

"Junior Luo Zisheng helped me a lot; I was the one who agreed to let her live here."

Xia Qi said this to Lina.

"But..."

Lina looked aggrieved, opening her mouth to say something.

But facing Xia Qi, she didn't know what to say.

She herself had moved in by force, so it seemed she didn't have much persuasive power.

Moreover, she and Xia Qi hadn't even confirmed their relationship yet...

"Did you hear that? Junior Xia Qi agreed to it."

Luo Zisheng's smile returned, looking at Lina with smug satisfaction.

For a moment, the atmosphere directly cooled down, and Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu also frowned, wondering what they were thinking.

Xia Qi looked at the varied expressions of the several women, and his temper flared.

Trouble had arisen from the very beginning when he allowed Yun Qingyue and the others to move in.

"I'll move out; the four of you can live here."

Xia Qi was very annoyed; clearing dungeons was already tiring enough, and when he returned to the dorm, he still had to balance several women.

He was too lazy to humor them anymore; he preferred peace and quiet alone.

At his words, the four women were all dumbfounded.

"Don't, Brother Xia Qi, we were just joking."

"Junior Xia Qi, you're not serious, are you? I promise to get along well with my sisters during my stay."

"Brother Xia Qi, don't go, really."

"Xia Qi, I was wrong. It was me who couldn't control my temper and argued with Luo Zisheng. Don't be angry..."

With just one sentence, the attitudes of the four women immediately changed.

"???"

Xia Qi had a face full of question marks.

No, what kind of operation is this?

He had genuinely wanted to live alone just now, not wanting this much trouble.

"Are you sure?"

Xia Qi looked at the several women doubtfully; he had to confirm that their words were true and reliable, otherwise, if they caused trouble again later, it would truly be a huge headache.

"Oh, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."

Lina immediately explained.

She had finally managed to get into Shengjing, precisely to find Xia Qi; she couldn't retreat in the face of difficulty now.

The more excellent girls there were around Xia Qi, the more it proved Xia Qi was worth it.

"Junior Xia Qi, what I said is also true; I can guarantee it to you."

Luo Zisheng even raised her hand as if swearing, her attitude very firm.

"What about you two?"

Xia Qi then turned his gaze to Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu.

"We two as well."

Yun Qingyue vowed confidently, while Yu Qiu nodded silently.

"Alright, since you all have agreed, let's leave it at that. I'm tired; I need to rest."

Xia Qi yawned, looking exhausted.

Clearing the Fallen Land dungeon these past few days had almost made him sick.

The Life Qi potion's effect was decent the first time he drank it, but the more he drank it afterward, the worse the effect became.

Plus, the opening ceremony was tomorrow, so Xia Qi stopped and went straight back to sleep.

Watching Xia Qi enter his room, the four women seemed to have agreed beforehand; they neither argued nor made a fuss.

On the surface, they maintained a harmonious atmosphere, but what they were thinking deep down was unknown.

Lying on the bed, drowsiness swept over him.

Almost as soon as his head hit the pillow, Xia Qi fell asleep.

In a daze, a graceful figure slipped into the room.

Her gaze at Xia Qi's face was full of complexity.

"Alas..."

Accompanied by a soft sigh, she carefully climbed onto Xia Qi's bed and snuggled into his embrace.

....

In General Hu's small courtyard, Zhang Dongsheng was glaring at General Hu, "Do you know what Home of Dungeons has become now? It's all that kid you trained who caused it."

"Old Zhang, what's wrong again?"

General Hu showed a strange expression; Xia Qi's personality was calm and introverted, not like someone who would cause trouble.

Li Wenjun was also present, pouring Zhang Dongsheng a cup of tea, "Old Zhang, tell us, what has Xia Qi done?"

Zhang Dongsheng ungraciously took the teacup, "That kid is charging for leading teams in Home of Dungeons, specifically leading teams through the Fallen Land."

"I thought it was something big. It's just charging for leading teams; Home of Dungeons has always had that."

General Hu said with a chuckle.

"Heh heh, but he, alone, is leading 39 people through a dungeon. Those academy faction students who were originally supposed to be eliminated have all passed their tasks now."

"Do you know how many Instructors from academies have complained to me these past few days!"

As soon as Zhang Dongsheng said this, General Hu laughed so hard he almost spit out his tea.

"This brat is good; his mind is even more flexible than mine. How much money is he charging? He shouldn't be losing money, right?"

"Old Hu, are you intentionally trying to annoy me? Is this a matter of points? This is a matter of principle."

"You're not unaware of the academy's intention in setting up these tasks."

The academy itself is a gathering place for elites, and also a place many ordinary students desperately try to enter.

As the number of ordinary students increased daily, the competition became even fiercer.

At this time, using tasks, especially large dungeon tasks, to screen out outstanding talents.

This aligns with the Law of survival of the fittest.

Now that Xia Qi has done this, this batch of people can stay for an extra year, increasing the academy's pressure.

General Hu looked nonchalant, "So what? Shengjing didn't stipulate that one couldn't lead a team into a dungeon. How can this be blamed on Xia Qi?"

"As long as it's within the rules, Xia Qi's actions are not a violation."

While that was true, Zhang Dongsheng was extremely angry.

"What he's doing is ruining the future of some good prospects. How do you expect new people to enter the academy? If these people aren't eliminated, what about the new recruits?"

"Old Zhang, are you getting dumber as you age?"

"What fairness are you talking about in the adult world?"

"Those who can enter the academy will naturally find a way to enter. Is this something we should worry about?"

General Hu's three consecutive sentences were all adding fuel to the fire.

Zhang Dongsheng was so angry he couldn't take it; he drank three large cups of tea in a row but still couldn't suppress his anger, so he directly stood up.

"Old Hu, I've figured it out. You and Xia Qi are in cahoots."

General Hu looked at Zhang Dongsheng with a chuckle, "Since you've said that about me, I'll be blunt. If you dare to touch Xia Qi, I'll tear down Home of Dungeons."

Zhang Dongsheng's mouth twitched upon hearing this; he knew General Hu was indeed capable of doing such a thing.

Moreover, the reason he hadn't stopped Xia Qi these past few days was precisely because he knew Xia Qi was someone General Hu was nurturing.

"Thug, truly a damn thug..."

Zhang Dongsheng left in a huff, not forgetting to curse General Hu before he left.

Otherwise, his anger probably wouldn't have been suppressed no matter what.

The next day, Xia Qi stretched and opened his eyes, still half-asleep.

He had slept exceptionally soundly last night.

He even wondered if he was too tired, as he unexpectedly had an erotic dream.

As the saying goes, a night of erotic dreams leaves no trace.

He woke up in the morning feeling refreshed and completely comfortable.

He threw off the covers, got up, and was about to wash up.

Xia Qi inadvertently glanced at the bed and froze.

On the bedsheet, next to where he had slept, a pool of crimson was particularly glaring.
