167: I just play with daggers.
Would the son of the famous Thunder Alliance actively beg someone?
Lu Yuan looked at Chu Wushe, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Chu Wushe was aloof and extremely arrogant.
He never expected that one day, he would actively bow his head, and to him of all people.
The surrounding students watched the show with great interest.
"Why do you want to become the Principal of Imperial Capital University?" Lu Yuan asked.
Chu Wushe fell silent.
"Because of Father," Chu Wushe said with a complicated expression.
"You might not know this, but Father and the Alliance Leaders are very fond of you, and often praise you in private."
"Especially Father, who is the Alliance Master of the Thunder Alliance. Although he hasn't expressed disappointment in me, I refuse to always be overshadowed by you!"
At this point, Chu Wushe's tone was envious.
"Your parents must be proud of you: national martial arts examination first place, Freshman Group Champion in the Five Great Top Academies Great Competition, breaking through to the Law Realm at such a young age..." Chu Wushe listed the many honors Lu Yuan had achieved.
"Not really," Lu Yuan pouted.
Half a month after he achieved national martial arts examination first place, his dad finally sent a text message saying, "Awesome, son."
As for his mother, she transferred him some money, called only to say, "Ask me if it's not enough," and then quickly hung up.
Compared to Chu Wushe, Lu Yuan didn't feel like it was a big deal.
Perhaps because their living environments were vastly different since childhood, Chu Wushe bore too much hope, as he was Chu Yongsheng's only son.
In contrast, his own parents didn't hold too many high expectations.
"We're buddies. I'll help you become the Principal of Imperial Capital University." Lu Yuan agreed.
Thinking about Chu Wushe becoming the Principal of Imperial Capital University and sweating profusely from being busy every day, the corners of Lu Yuan's mouth were harder to suppress than an AK.
Chu Wushe found these words very touching.
"Thanks," Chu Wushe whispered.
"Come with me to the No Mans Land tomorrow."
Lu Yuan paused after speaking.
"Is your blood scythe a top-grade spirit artifact?"
Chu Wushe frowned, not understanding why Lu Yuan was asking something he already knew.
"Which Saint Realm Instructor smashed the stone pillar!" Lao Qiyuan was a bit angry.
The Testing Ground stone pillar was built by him with huge investment, specifically for students to test their Spirit Skills.
Every Giant Stone Pillar was incredibly precious, capable of withstanding the full-force attack of a Domain Realm Practitioner at its limit.
However, the Saint Realm could not withstand it!
"Me," Lu Yuan said.
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Lao Qiyuan raised an eyebrow.
"Then it's fine."
Lao Qiyuan's anger vanished, replaced by curiosity about how Lu Yuan managed it.
Upon learning that Lu Yuan was experimenting with Fusion Spirit Skills, Lao Qiyuan showed great interest.
"Elder Lao, do you remember my conjecture from this morning?" Lu Yuan changed the subject.
"Of course, I remember. You said that all five young people possess a top-grade spirit artifact."
Lao Qiyuan nodded.
Now, both he and The Authorities were searching for those five young people.
The Alliance Leaders of the Seven Alliances and One Hall believed the Prophecy of the Imperial Advisor of the Great Shun Dynasty.
"Chu Wushe recently obtained a top-grade spirit artifact called the blood scythe in the Back Mountain," Lu Yuan said.
A clap of thunder exploded in Lao Qiyuan's mind!
"In other words, you, Chu Wushe, and Han Junchen are confirmed to be three of the five young people?" Lao Qiyuan focused on Han Junchen.
Lu Yuan and Chu Wushe were 100% confirmed; the identities of the remaining three were still a mystery.
"Does Jiang Tianxia have a top-grade spirit artifact?" Chu Wushe muttered to himself.
Jiang Tianxia grasped the Top-tier Gold Attribute and the Divine Power Heart of the God of War, the same type as the Supreme Alliance Leader.
Compared to Han Junchen, who had yet to grasp a Divine Power, Chu Wushe felt Jiang Tianxia was more likely.
"Just call and ask."
Lu Yuan took out his pocket phone.
The gazes of Lao Qiyuan, Tang Jinghui, and Chu Wushe all focused on Lu Yuan.
Only they present knew about the Prophecy of the Imperial Advisor of the Great Shun Dynasty... Modu, city center Mall.
Rolling black smoke rose, and a violent explosion sounded!
Mall Patrons collectively screamed. Less than a minute after the explosion, fully armed Law Enforcement Officers arrived.
Suo Shichang, Fire Attribute, Four-Star Transcendent Realm Practitioner.
As the Captain of the Modu Law Enforcement Officer Brigade, Suo Shichang rushed over quickly after receiving the alarm.
"Evacuate the public! Ensure public safety!"
"Damn it, I knew it was Ancient Professionals even without thinking! Once I catch them alive, I'll show them what's what!"
Suo Shichang's veins bulged.
"Captain, they are inside." A Law Enforcement Officer pointed toward a Western Restaurant.
"Be careful, I'll charge in first."
Suo Shichang, clad in Battle Armor, gripped the Long Saber in his hand, took a deep breath, and walked into the empty Western Restaurant.
Standing at the entrance of Private Room No. 1, Suo Shichang violently kicked the door open and deployed a Red Barrier.
"Young Master Jiang?"
Suo Shichang was surprised.
Two walls of the private room were blown through. Jiang Qiwen, dressed in a Suit and possessing a refined demeanor, sat upright in a chair.
Clink, clink
At this moment, Jiang Qiwen was leisurely cutting a Steak with a knife and fork, his movements extremely elegant.
Furthermore, a Dagger was stuck into the table. Inside the private room, Jiang Tianxia was unconscious, tightly gripping a dark, massive sword in her hand.
Looking at the Ancient Professionals standing opposite Jiang Qiwen, Suo Shichang's expression tightened.
Six Ancient Professionals, four in the Law Realm and two in the Divine Power Realm, were all holding Cold Weapons.
"You..."
The Leading Practitioner stared at Jiang Qiwen in disbelief, slowly raising his finger.
The scene that followed would be unforgettable for Suo Shichang!
The bodies of the six Ancient Professionals who assassinated Jiang Tianxia fell in Tofu-sized Pieces, no bigger than a fingernail.
Blood stained the floor, and neat chunks of flesh met the eye.
"Transcendent Saint Attainment!"
The leading Ancient Professional thought this before he died.
"Didn't the Great Shun Dynasty say they had given up on assassinating the genius of huaxia? Why are they still attacking my sister?" Jiang Qiwen wiped the Dagger with a Handkerchief.
"Was it Young Master Jiang who..."
Suo Shichang's tone was uncertain as he looked at Jiang Qiwen, who was only in the Qi Refining Realm.
"It was just luck." Jiang Qiwen dismissed it, looking sorrowfully at Jiang Tianxia, who had fallen unconscious protecting him.
"This attack was caused by my sister. The Jiang Family will compensate for all damages to the Mall."
Jiang Qiwen's tone was envious.
Heart of the God of War was indeed terrifying. Due to his talent limitations, he would never be able to obtain such powerful strength in this life.
"I guess I can only play with Daggers," Jiang Qiwen mocked himself.
[Show-off calling, Show-off calling!]
Hearing Jiang Tianxia's phone make a sound, Jiang Qiwen was slightly curious.
Who is the Show-off?
"It's Lu Yuan," Jiang Qiwen said with a smile.
Jiang Tianxia's Second Brother, Jiang Qiwen?
Lu Yuan thought this on the other end of the line.
"What's up? Tianxia and I ran into a bit of trouble while shopping at the Mall, but luckily it was resolved," Jiang Qiwen briefly explained the situation.
Learning that the Great Shun Dynasty had attempted to kidnap Jiang Tianxia, Lu Yuan became even more certain of his hypothesis.
"Does Jiang Tianxia have a top-grade spirit artifact?"
Lu Yuan asked directly.
Jiang Qiwen was slow to answer on the other end of the line.
"I understand."
Silence was the best answer; Lu Yuan knew what was going on.
"Tianxia does have a top-grade spirit artifact, but she doesn't even know it herself." Jiang Qiwen chose to tell Lu Yuan the truth.
"Big Brother died on the battlefield. My talent is too low; I'll likely stay in the Qi Refining Realm my whole life. Tianxia has the highest talent in our Jiang Family and is the most hopeful candidate to become the next Family Head."
Jiang Qiwen said.
"This top-grade spirit artifact originally belonged to Big Brother, and was later given to Tianxia, but she can only use it once she breaks through to the Law Realm."
After chatting with Jiang Qiwen for a few more sentences, Lu Yuan hung up the phone.
"What's the verdict?" Lao Qiyuan asked impatiently.
Lu Yuan nodded.
"Yes!"
Lao Qiyuan held his breath.
"So your conjecture was correct! Among the five young people, only the identity of the silent break owner remains unknown!"
