Chapter 131: First Day of School
“What’s the matter?”
Qin Ye’s gaze shifted slightly. He immediately understood that she was talking about her awakening within Song Jiafang’s body.
She closed her eyes gently, and her feathery eyelashes quivered slightly, “Thus… I tried to come up with various ways of reminding him. Unfortunately, my awakening was only partial, and Song Jiafang’s soul was still in control of her body. That’s why I was unable to give him a more direct warning.”
But Su Dongxue was determined, and she slowly began to pull down her Hell’s Emissary robes, inch by inch. Then, before everyone could react to the sudden turn of events, a burst of Yin energy suddenly erupted from her body. Then… her robes fell to the ground, and a small black cat emerged from where she was standing just a moment ago!
Didn’t Arthis mention that demon cultivators were incredibly rare these days? I can’t believe that I’m actually seeing one right now!
Qin Ye closed his eyes.
What was that black cat?
“Do your job well.” He infused the shard of King Yanluo’s Seal with his own Yin energy, and his body slowly disappeared, “There’s no zoo in the new Hell. I don’t care if you’re a demon cultivator. All that matters to me is that you pull your own weight, and bring something to the table.”
Several minutes later, Qin Ye appeared once again in the Insignia University dormitories.
I can’t be bothered with the details anymore. I’ll just cross the bridge when I get there. With that, he quickly retired for the night. The next day, he woke up to frantic buzzing and alerts from his phone.
Disturbing my beauty sleep is a capital offense!
Qin Ye looked at his phone, “It’s nine. What’s the matter? Oh, that’s right, could you be a dear and get me some breakfast on your way back? I’ll transfer you the cost of it later.”
Qin Ye immediately jumped as though pricked by a needle, and then quickly fell back down onto the bed, “Please don’t tell me that the professor is waiting for me to begin. He hasn’t even seen me before, has he?”
“Oh.”
Qin Ye felt as though he were sinking deeper and deeper back into the lovely embrace of the bed, and his eyes began to feel droopy and heavy, “And then?”
At best, I’ll just work harder in future and catch up on my own! Why are you being so uptight about this?
Qin Ye immediately hung up, washed his face and rinsed his mouth in record time, and shot right out of his dorm room. He could still hear the sounds of intense LoL battles and cheap stereo sets echoing throughout the corridors, but he couldn’t care less to observe the vibrant campus life of Insignia University right now. He dashed out of the building and rushed straight to the lecture hall like a Kai’Sa employing her Killing Instincts skill.
“Where are you sitting?” Ten minutes later, he gasped for breath as he sent a voice message on WeChat. He was presently leaning on a wall just outside the tiered lecture hall.
“I love a teammate with foresight like you! Open the door, I’ll slip right in!” Without waiting for Lin Han’s response, Qin Ye switched off his phone and crouched down like a thief as he waited patiently for the back door to creak open.
The crack wasn’t wide. It was just sufficient for a single person to slip through.
Perfect!
Zhou Xianlong, Li Tao, Xu Anguo and several professors from the school were all staring intently at the uninvited guest.
They all had the same contrived, specious smile on their faces - one that made any person feel immeasurably uneasy.
“Cough… ahem…” Qin Ye felt ill at ease, and he awkwardly waved his hands, “How do you do?”
On second thought, he supplemented further - Lacking the spirit of learning, and failing to bring textbooks to class. Penalty: another one teaching credit!!!
Wait… aren’t you penalizing my teaching credits with a little bit too arbitrarily? You just don’t like me, do you? Did I annoy you with my tardiness?
“How should I know?!” Lin Han rolled his eyes, “I was still playing with my phone and listening to music when my headphones suddenly got pulled off. When I looked up and saw these gods, I nearly pissed myself, alright? But couldn’t you have thought for yourself either? Those seated at the front of the hall are all actual college students from the Faculty of Arts. Given that we’re just here to watch and learn, it’s only natural that we’d be relegated to the back of the hall. And the leaders of the academy would naturally be seated all the way at the back as well. I thought you would be smart enough to have thought about these things!”
I put a sentry down and you immediately attempt to destroy it?
“... Although I accept your compliments, this still doesn’t mean you can’t be a pal and give me some warning!” Qin Ye massaged his temples. What an idiot! It’s a typical idiotic teammate!
The tyrant Qin Ye seized a blank exercise book and a pen from Lin Han and pretended to take down lecture notes. He quickly wrote - Is God of Death Zhou going through andropause? Why does he have to care about everything from the sky to the earth, and even down to whether I let out a fart or not?!
Qin Ye placed the exercise book under his arm and tilted his head to give Lin Han a signal. He immediately glanced over, and his lips curled into a massive grin as he fought hard to stifle his laughter.
Zhou Xianlong leaned back into his chair, and the grimace on his face deepened.
Lin Han - Holy shit?! You’ve encountered other Judges? Pray tell! What are they like? God of Death Zhou doesn’t give me any hope in their kind at all.
Lin Han - Hang on… ‘she’? Female? Couldn’t you make some introductions next time? I’ve got some twenty-five year vintage in store for her…
Lin Han - What’s up? And what do you mean by ‘local bully’?!
Qin Ye and Lin Han immediately put on a pretence of a calm and placid expression, replete with slightly furrowed brows, as though they were deep in thought, drifting through the ocean of knowledge. It had to be said that both of their acting skills were top notch. They packed up their exercise books, but the multitude of observers remained behind in their seats.
“Teaching is completely different from purging ghosts. Earlier today at 8 a.m., we’ve issued our letters of invitation to the major sects, hidden sects, clans and allegiances alike. We should be receiving their list of registrants early next month. Therefore…”
As Li Tao and the others finally turned to leave the lecture hall, Qin Ye and Lin Han also heaved a sigh of relief. But before they could fully relax, all of the instructors’ exercise books suddenly shot up into the air and flew over towards Zhou Xianlong as though they had wings.
Bloody hell!!
