Chapter 1041 - 635: The Frenzied, Poisonous Qin Xue and the Students Return (Part 2)
"Hmm, so I brought Lu Lin back to share some tips on finding Glittering Gold. Graduation seems far away, and we’re not geniuses like Qi Wudi. Learning more about finding Glittering Gold will help us face the upcoming exams, don’t you think, Miss Qin?"
Qin Xue’s expression shifted, and she smiled, "Hehe, Tan Cong, you’re smart indeed, your name is fitting."
"Lu Lin, when did you find this piece of Glittering Gold? Also, where is that three-pound piece?"
"In my presence, don’t talk nonsense about selling it to me."
Qin Xue arrogantly declared, as if exchanging words with Lu Lin was a rare blessing from the heavens for him.
Initially, Lu Lin intended to tease her a bit but suddenly found it uninteresting.
This woman is simply brainless and harmless. Competing with her would only lower his intelligence and standing.
"Idiot!"
Lu Lin disdainfully glanced at Qin Xue and went straight to rest.
Currently, only Qin Xue was at the gathering spot, so he couldn’t do business. He decided to wait until more people arrived.
"Hey, what’s with your attitude? Stand up!"
Seeing Lu Lin’s demeanor, Qin Xue was infuriated and walked over to kick him.
"Slap."
Lu Lin grabbed Qin Xue’s ankle.
He stared at her coldly, his eyes filled with frostiness.
"You, hey, what are you doing!"
"Han Cong, hurry over, Lu Lin brought you here..."
"Hehe, Miss, I can’t handle this."
Although Han Cong didn’t know why Lu Lin stopped teasing Qin Xue, he didn’t dare act out in front of Lu Lin.
Seeing him apprehensive, Qin Xue snorted indignantly, trying to forcefully retrieve her foot from Lu Lin’s grip, though she underestimated his strength.
Compared to these fledgling students, he was practically a God-like figure.
Qin Xue still trying to argue with him was pointless.
"Qi Wudi, help me."
"Ma Lin, why are you just standing there."
"Don’t forget, this Gu Feng Academy exists because of my dad’s sponsorship."
Qin Xue stated angrily, but Qi Wudi ignored her and sat beside Lu Lin, seemingly unmoved by her words.
"Ma Lin, what are you doing? Hurry over and help me!"
"Help me this time, and three years later, I’ll get the teacher to prepare a generous scholarship for you."
Though tempted by Qin Xue’s scholarship offer, Ma Lin knew better than to clash with Lu Lin.
"Miss, let it go. Why don’t you apologize to big brother Lu Lin?"
"Apologize?"
"To him?!"
Qin Xue’s voice shot up, her eyes full of disbelief. Does a dog-like creature deserve Miss Qin’s apology?
"Hmph, Ma Lin, you’re just a coward. If you won’t help me, forget the scholarship, and I’ll ensure the teacher’s review of you will be poor."
"I’ll tell your parents about your inaction when your classmates are in danger..."
"Stop!"
While Qin Xue rambled on, Lu Lin couldn’t bear it anymore.
This woman, apart from having a passable appearance, was merely an annoying fly.
"Stop?"
"Who do you think you are, daring to command me to stop!"
"Fine, since none of you will help, I’ll handle it myself."
Qin Xue flared up, secretly gathering her strength.
She initially refrained from retaliating against Lu Lin, asking others for help instead.
"Scram!"
Lu Lin, feeling nauseous at the sight of this woman, saw Qin Xue attempting to kick him with her other foot and threw her far away.
"Ah—"
Qin Xue shrieked.
From her lavish upbringing, she never endured such treatment.
While airborne, unable to control herself, she landed heavily, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Ah—Lu Lin, I’ll kill you!"
Qin Xue screamed, extracting a long spear from her storage space.
She was unexpectedly a Martial Artist who wielded spears. Just as Lu Lin prepared to confront her, Tan Cong stepped forward, blocking her.
"Miss Qin, that’s enough."
"What the hell, Han Cong, you dare to block me?"
Qin Xue appeared hysterical.
"Miss, Lu Lin’s ability surpasses all of us. Moreover, he’s Qi Wudi’s servant now. When the teacher comes to fetch us, he’ll also return to Gu Feng Town with us."
"What?!"
Qin Xue was stunned. The criteria Qi Wudi set for recruiting servants was stringent, looking more for a genius than a servant.
Yet Lu Lin became his servant.
How could this be?!
Nonetheless, she soon heard Tan Cong’s latter statement—Lu Lin intended to return with them to Gu Feng Town via Flying Boat.
"No! I object."
"Qi Wudi, are you opposing me? I want to deal with him, and you’re protecting him."
"And you, Tan Cong, your father is just a dog the Qin Family keeps. Now, you little dog dare to block your master. Are you asking for death?"
Qin Xue ranted recklessly, making Tan Cong’s face turn grim.
His father indeed depended on the Qin Family.
Without unexpected occurrences, upon graduation, he’d join his father in serving the Qin Family.
Provoking the Qin’s Miss now wasn’t wise.
But.
Tan Cong glanced back at Lu Lin, who sat confidently, unfazed.
Tan Cong gritted his teeth, but before he could speak, he was pushed to the side.
"Tan Cong, let me handle it."
Qi Wudi’s voice sounded from behind. Tan Cong wanted to resist, yet Qi Wudi’s strength was overwhelming. Facing it head-on risked getting pushed aside easily.
"Qin Xue, though your Qin Family is the largest in Gu Feng Town, and your father is a Leader-Level Peak Master, your arrogance was forgivable."
"But you shouldn’t provoke Lu Lin deliberately. Do you know that Lu Lin’s strength surpasses mine? If you’re reckless, someone more formidable may arise later, potentially threatening the Qin Family’s survival."
"Heh—"
Qin Xue chuckled lightly, "Qi Wudi, you’re just the Peak Talent of the Gang. You’re called a genius but visit a big city and won’t be more noble than a dog."
"Slash!"
Right after speaking, a red mark appeared on Qin Xue’s face.
"Qi Wudi, you dare hit me?"
Qin Xue clutched her face in shock.
"Hitting you is kind. If Lu Lin had struck, you’d already be dead."
"Stay quiet and don’t cause trouble."
Qi Wudi said coldly.
Qin Xue looked at him, then at Tan Cong and Ma Lin, finally turning her gaze to Lu Lin.
Instead of repentance, her gaze held deep-seated resentment.
Though unable to act against Lu Lin now, these people seemed enchanted by his allure, safeguarding him regardless of Qin Xue’s claims.
However, hadn’t Tan Cong mentioned it earlier? Lu Lin, now Qi Wudi’s servant, would accompany them to Gu Feng Town soon.
In Gu Feng Town, Qin Xue had a hundred ways to end Lu Lin.
She hoped he’d remain as unwavering when that day arrived.
Qin Xue brewed plans of vengeance in her mind, covering her eyes with her hand to hide them from Lu Lin.
"Hey, have you all returned? Have you caught Lu Lin yet?"
Just after Qin Xue departed, several figures appeared.
They were Qi Wudi’s fellow students.
Ma Lin smiled, greeting them, "Hey, you all returned as well. We’ve found Lu Lin, but to get Glittering Gold, you must pay Three Times the Premium."
