Protect
Pong!
As the old teacher shook his hand, his congenial chi sward like bees to honey and caught onto Jiang Li. Jiang Li felt his whole body was surrounded by sothing, he couldn’t move. The congenial chi acted as though it were just like ropes that had tightened around him, he couldn’t breathe.
Rumble!
A hand appeared beside Jiang Li and burst through the congenial chi, taking him away. Jiang Li’s eyes were blurred but in the next second, he suddenly found himself moved further away from the old teacher’s attack. He stood on empty ground with his teacher, Hong Heiyu standing beside him.
Jiang Li had known that there was sothing odd in this matter, so he had notified Hong Heiyu in advance.
“Song Shuren, you really are getting more shaless as you age, how dare you lay a hand on my student.” Hong Heiyu clasped his hands behind his back as he coldly stared at the 70 year old man.
“So this old things na was Song Shuren.” Jiang Li, having once again acquired protection from his teacher, felt safe and sound.
“Hong Heiyu! So he was your student.” Song Shuren frowned his eyebrows, he looked frightened in front of Hong Heiyu.
“What happened here?” Hong Heiyu turned his head towards Jiang Li, who explained the whole course of events to Hong Heiyu, but ignored the details of how he rescued the other people, only explaining how Lu Jin had attacked him after he was rescued by him and everyone else.
“I see.” Hong Heiyu folded his arms to his chest, he said with derision: “Song Shuren, that was low of you! These children saved your student and even suffered a great loss doing so. You tried to save yourself from compensation and even acted so shalessly? You are unworthy of being one of our Astral University teachers.”
“Do you honestly think these weaklings have the ability to rescue my student?” Song Shuren’s tone was still cold, but he wasn’t as arrogant as he was just then: “Do you think that I didn’t know that my student had been captured? The person who captured him was Nie Wanxiong, one of the natives of Da Qian University, he was the student of a big figure and his master planted a Holy Seed inside of him, using him as a re pawn to draw us out. I did not take action because I knew they planned for an ambush. Your student and these bunch of people rescued Lu Jin? I cannot help but to doubt that. I requested for an interrogation and that was a legal process.”
“Impudent!” Hong Heiyu suddenly shouted aloud, everyone was shocked by his volu, even Lu Jin started to shiver: “I don’t care about the process, the truth now is that these students rescued your student and they have suffered a great loss. You must compensate them or else don’t bla for taking action against you. Since you laid a finger on my student, I can also do the sa to you.”
“How dare you?!”
Song Shuren, with a face of disbelief, moved back a few steps.
“There’s nothing I don’t dare to do. You’re just an eternal stasis runt, don’t forget that I’m an internal breath master.” Hong Heiyu folded his arms in front of his chest: “Even if there were 100 of you, you wouldn’t be my opponent. You should know my anger. One word: compensate for the loss, and award them a bonus, or else don’t you dare to even think of leaving here in one piece.”
Song Shuren may well be within the boundary of “Eternal Stasis,” his life force may also be abnormally strong, but if he were to et an internal breath master like Hong Heiyu who controls a divine ability, there would be a huge gap in power between them. He knows that for now, he can’t beat Hong Heiyu.
“Do you think I can’t afford to compensate these little brats?” Song Shuren was an old, cheeky man, his expression did not change: “This incident has a lot of questionable points about it, sooner or later the higher ups from Astral University will also start to investigate. Nie Wanxiong is a pawn who tried to draw us out, even the higher ups know that, and as for how these little brats successfully rescued Lu Jin, they will need to explain.”
He threw a piece of a chip: “This is a chip card, there is enough money inside to compensate you and more. Hong Heiyu, your student is not bad, however, I hope he could pay more attention to his manners so that he will not simply hypnotize anyone willy nilly next ti. Breaking other people’s spiritual power is equal to cutting off one’s road to living.”
As he finished speaking, Song Shuren grabbed Lu Jin and flew out from the battleship, and just a few monts later their shadows completely disappeared.
Ji Qing Wu walked up to where the chip had fallen and picked it up to check the balance inside of it.
This chip was equivalent to a digital cheque, it did not require any procedure to make transfers, and it could even be bought directly.
Jiang Li saw the smirk on Ji Qing Wu’s face, and he knew that she was satisfied with the amount inside, which was enough to compensate for everyone’s loss.
“Jiang Li, you did the most to contribute this ti, so I will transfer half of the balance to you.” She was preparing the transfer as she was talking.
“Never mind , I don’t need the money of that filthy duo. Moreover, I did not suffer any loss this ti, it was mostly your armors that were destroyed. The team’s strength has greatly been reduced so you should keep all of it.” Jiang Li shook his hand, he didn’t want to accept Song Shuren’s compensation.
Ji Qing Wu didn’t agree, she insisted on giving it to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li firmly rejected, and her reluctance did not drag any further, she put away the digital cheque and smiled: “If you need anything in the future, you can cooperate with our small team.”
“Jiang Li, follow .”
Hong Heiyu was deep in thought, he did not allow Jiang Li and Ji Qing Wu to finish their talk but grabbed Jiang Li directly. As their bodies flashed, they had already disappeared from the scene.
After so ti, they appeared in a deep, secret room.
“What do you have inside of you? I felt a strong sensation of power.” Hong Heiyu asked, straight to the point: “And, did you really save Lu Jin? Did their plan not work out? Surely, it was a trap. Many teachers didn’t have the courage to take the risk, they were scared of the ambush. Those two female students who sent the ssage back failed to get any help, so they went berserk and wanted to go back and stage a rescue alone, but in the end they were locked up by the teachers. Nobody was brave enough to risk themselves, everyone was a coward. I also felt ashad, but I didn’t know you had participated in the activity, so I did not ddle in the matter. Your actions might attract the attention of those with bad intentions in the higher levels of Astral University, however, do not be afraid. You did not do anything wrong, its just that you kept so secrets. I will protect you, whoever wants to examine you shall have to go through .”
“Teacher, thank you.” Jiang Li expressed gratitude from his heart, simple and aningful.
“There isn’t anything normal in this world, although I have helped you today, in the future, you might have the chance to lend a hand so you don’t have to thank .” Hong Heiyu sighed, both of his eyes were looking afar through the void: “I believe it is fate that I beca your teacher, each and every one of us ca from the void to the physical world. Since we have t, it must be fate .”
Both his eyes were as though he was able to see through karma.
Jiang Li was affected by Hong Heiyu’s sigh, he had a deep thought and later said: “Teacher, I do have so secrets…….”
“You don’t have to talk about your secrets. If a secret were to be revealed, then it couldn’t be called a secret anymore. Everybody has a secret.” Hong Heiyu shook his hands, he stopped Jiang Li from continuing: “Astral University is full of talents, it isn’t weird to find any abnormal appearances. Every student is the pride of us human beings, what’s wrong with having a secret? You don’t have to tell , you can keep it in your heart.”
Jiang Li imdiately stopped talking. He knew Hong Heiyu’s personality. Hong Heiyu had a soul of hell that held uncountable agony, and he was unconcerned about most things. He gave pain to others, and he gave himself to the pain, to let other people understand the pain and grasp the principle of the pain of hell.
This kind of person didn’t even care about secrets. He had his unique and strong heart, and was clear in abiding by his own Dao.
Hong Heiyu was a strong man, but Jiang Li knew that he himself wasn’t.
“I see that your spiritual power has gone up.” Hong Heiyu continued: “However, if you want to reach Eternal Stasis, you still have a long way to go. I can’t help you grasp the Dao, you must master it yourself. You can stay here to train in your cultivation, contact if anything happens and I will solve your problems imdiately.”
