Li Xunle: Is this chicken...serious?
Hearing the name Zuo Yue, Li Xunle suddenly recalled the girl he met in the Land of Divine Punishment.
He thought to himself, 'So she's Zuo Jiutian's daughter; no wonder she's so formidable.'
Zuo Jiutian, Zuo Yue... 'Nine Heavens Embracing the Moon?'
How interesting.
He felt a little puzzled and asked Zuo Jiutian, "Why does she, a girl, enjoy fighting and killing so much?"
Zuo Jiutian's tone was somewhat helpless: "I don't know either. I've advised her many times to live a stable life, but she insists on fighting and killing, even saying she absolutely must go to the Cosmic Cube to see it for herself."
Li Xunle slowly stood up, picked up a bottle of mineral water nearby, and started drinking it.
Then he said, "I've met her. Her combat power is very strong; you shouldn't have to worry too much."
Zuo Jiutian looked delighted: "You really met her?"
Li Xunle nodded, his tone odd: "I met her when she was on a rampage, but surprisingly, she almost tried to kill me. It was quite interesting."
Hearing that Zuo Yue was fine, Zuo Jiutian nodded repeatedly: "It's good that she's fine, it's good that she's fine!"
Li Xunle suddenly seemed to remember something: "Oh, right, when I go to the Cosmic Cube in the future, I can bring back some luck crystals, but you also have to agree to one condition."
Mei Changshu crossed his arms, saying with interest, "What condition?"
"Wolong City gets priority in allocating the luck crystals. Is that condition not too much?"
Zuo Jiutian nodded: "No problem, Wolong City can have priority in allocation!"
Li Xunle nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he looked at Zuo Jiutian: "Um... I shouldn't need to go to school, right?"
Zuo Jiutian shook his head: "Why would you still go to school? You're about to ascend to the heavens."
"Then... I'll just graduate directly?"
Zuo Jiutian was stunned: "Graduating right after enrollment? You haven't even gotten familiar with the campus. Do you have to be so quick?"
"Originally, I only enrolled to learn about the Cosmic Cube, but it seems I've already learned almost everything there is to know."
Zuo Jiutian said faintly: "To graduate, you need to clear the Mini Cosmic Rubik's Cube Instance."
"Then I'll go clear it now?"
"You need to be level 90 to enter..."
Li Xunle's expression tightened: "There's such a requirement?"
"It's the instance's requirement, not the academy's..."
"..."
"Although your strength is formidable, I still recommend you consult Instructor for more information; it might be useful."
Li Xunle raised an eyebrow slightly: "Instructor?"
Previously, he had heard the admissions director say he needed to meet with Instructor.
At the time, he hadn't planned on coming back.
However, if it weren't for Zuo Yue mentioning a Heaven's Punishment Secret Realm, he wouldn't have known about it at all.
So, gathering more information was still very important.
Zuo Jiutian: "Yes, your Instructor is Zhou Zhixue."
After speaking, he found Zhou Zhixue's phone number and sent it to Li Xunle.
Li Xunle mumbled: "Zhou Zhixue?"
Zuo Jiutian nodded, emphasizing again: "Also, before you go to the Cosmic Cube, you must remember to run the Mini Cosmic Rubik's Cube Instance once. Some places inside are very special, and spatial restrictions will affect your teleportation. This experience will prevent you from getting into trouble in the Cosmic Cube later."
Li Xunle nodded lightly: "No big deal."
With that, he turned and left.
Just as he reached the door, he suddenly turned around: "Oh, right, didn't that Director Gao say before that you needed 100,000 moral points to be qualified to know about the Cosmic Cube Teleportation Array key information?"
Zuo Jiutian had a strange expression: "You're an exception. If you don't kill indiscriminately, your merits are immeasurable."
Li Xunle's mouth curved into a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "...Oh."
After saying that, he walked out of the office with his hands in his pockets, taking long strides, looking dashing.
Seeing Li Xunle's figure disappear, Zuo Jiutian, Mei Changshu, and the others exchanged glances.
Then, Zuo Jiutian turned his head to Mei Changshu and the others, asking softly, "What do you think about Li Xunle?"
After asking, his fingers tapped lightly on the conference table, without any rhythm.
The tapping made a faint thudding sound.
His gaze swept across the faces of Mei Changshu and the others, waiting for them to speak.
Mei Changshu narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath: "Li Xunle's appearance might be Xia Country's good fortune. I believe all of us here combined would be no match for him. With such strength, he should be able to walk unhindered in the One Star, Two Star, and Three Star Worlds of the Cosmic Cube."
Liu Qingqing's face showed curiosity: "I just wonder if he can enter worlds above Four Stars to compete for better luck crystals. All the luck crystals we've collected so far are no more than Three Stars."
Zhao Ziyun was full of confidence: "I think he should be able to."
Hu Yidao also nodded: "I also believe he can."
Black and White Impermanence nodded without hesitation.
They were both people Li Xunle had 'killed,' and they knew very well how potent his poison was.
One could say they were completely helpless against him.
Moreover, the poison couldn't be removed.
Even Li Xunle himself couldn't remove it.
They unanimously agreed that if Li Xunle didn't have a resurrection skill, he would probably accidentally kill many people!
Seeing that they had finished speaking, Zuo Jiutian slowly began: "If Lin Shu dies in battle overseas, the eleven Xia Country Guardians will become ten, and six of them are present here, with the other four still fighting in the Cosmic Cube.
Without further ado, we must quickly prepare for the Rubik's Cube Key Secret Realm a few days from now.
As for Li Xunle, although he is strong, he is unstable. Xia Country cannot rely entirely on him; we still need to be self-reliant."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, in their eyes, Li Xunle was just a child who hadn't even fully matured.
There would inevitably be some impulsive situations.
On the other side, Li Xunle contacted Zhao Hao via phone.
When he met Zhao Hao, he found him showing off how awesome his Life and Death Swordplay was to Wang Hao and Li Chen, Sword Saint.
Li Xunle couldn't help but look at him with disdain.
Good heavens, he really seizes every opportunity to show off and act superior.
He's even more of a show-off than himself.
Li Xunle slowly walked over and asked, "Ri Tian, I'm a bit hungry. Have you gotten familiar with the academy? Aren't you going to treat me to something to eat?"
Zhao Hao turned to Li Xunle: "Big Brother is hungry?
Come on, I'll take you guys to eat roast chicken. My Mother Zhao opened a small stall in the academy cafeteria."
Li Xunle's forehead creased with black lines upon hearing the two ambiguous words.
After frowning, he then said, "Let's go, lead the way!"
"Alright, Big Brother!"
The four walked and chatted.
"Ri Tian, I plan to go to the Land of Divine Punishment today or tomorrow to level up quickly. Are you coming with me? Do you need to prepare anything else?"
Zhao Hao's tone was a bit hesitant: "Big Brother, I'm considering whether or not to inlay gems into my equipment?"
"Of course not. You're only level sixty now. Get your equipment when you reach level one hundred, then go wild in the Cosmic Cube!"
Zhao Hao: "Then I don't need to prepare anything."
Soon, the four arrived at Mother Zhao's stall and ordered four roast chickens.
Father Zhao and Mother Zhao were very happy to see Li Xunle.
Because Li Xunle had helped them so much.
Therefore, without a word, they quickly grilled the chicken.
When the roast chickens were served, all four were stunned, even Zhao Hao was a bit bewildered.
Because, in their imagination, roast chicken should be golden.
But this time, it was pitch black, with a hint of red in the black.
Li Xunle couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: "Ri Tian, is this chicken... legitimate?"
