Ever since the bizarre events occurred at the construction site, Myriad Base had invited several Shamans while also spending a large sum of money. The outcome was that the situation remained didn\'t improve at all and even became worse. Even they were completely powerless now.
The couple, Qin Weiping and Nangong Qin sat opposite to each other, neither speaking a word. The office sustained a pin drop silence and the mood was quite suffocating.
After a long time, Qin Weiping pinched off the cigarette butt and said brazenly, "Why don\'t you try calling Kou\'er and ask her for the whereabouts of that Shaman, Mr. Luoxia?"
It wasn\'t that he didn\'t try looking already; he had already scoured the entire Jiang City but it proved hopeless.
Nangong Qin said, "I called her already. She wasn\'t willing to tell me. I asked my sister-in-law to ask her but I don\'t know what happened, she too refused me."
A mother always knew what\'s running in their child\'s mind. Looking at Nangong Kou\'er\'s behavior, her mother understood that there must be some reason for it. If Nangong Qin hadn\'t done anything excessive, her daughter wouldn\'t have behaved in such a manner. Hence, she naturally took her daughter\'s side.
Qin Weiping was enraged, "Along with the elevation of your brother\'s position, their entire family is becoming more arrogant. They don\'t even think about the fact that the reason he\'s able to have such a smooth life is due to the Old Father giving the assets of the whole family to him. Now, his family is backstabbing us in such a manner!?"
Seeing her husband enraged, Nangong Qin kept silent.
He was just the son-in-law in the end. He\'d never touch an iota of the Nangong family\'s assets. Moreover, he was only a businessman.
In the eyes of the power-holders, a businessman was just a low-level existence they could toy with.
The office sunk into silence again.
As matters stood, Myriad Base\'s doom was set.
They were feeling deep regret for acting so recklessly towards Jiang Xiu, who was a genuine Shaman. Zhang Tieshan had especially left words behind that since Jiang Luoxia was able to figure out that his judgment was mistaken, there was no doubt that he certainly knew what\'s the real source of the problem.
Nangong Qin said, "Let\'s try calling Old Father Tang Zhenshan? He\'s the top brass of Jiang City, so he might have some means to solve this situation?"
Qin Weiping muttered to himself for a moment and then picked up the phone to call Tang Zhenshan, "Hello, is Old Father Tang available? This is Qin Weiping speaking."
"Please wait for a moment…" A\'Dong received the call, "Old Father, it\'s Qin Weiping of Myriad Base."
"Hello, this is Tang Zhenshan."
Qin Weiping said, "Old Father, only you can help me now…" Qin Weiping explained the matter in simple words. Naturally, he didn\'t mention the matter about Shaman Luoxia.
"Hahaha…"
Tang Zhenshan laughed heartily after hearing his worries, "Weiping, how can those genuine noble Shamans act so easily? If you want those genuine experts to come out, money won\'t be enough. You\'ll have to take out things which interest them."
Qin Weiping asked, "Old Father is speaking about?"
He was confused as he didn\'t know which items caught the interest of Shamans.
On the other end of the call, Tang Zhenshan gave a simple answer, "Artifacts!"
"Artifacts?"
Those kinds of things were simply incomprehensible to a businessman.
"Yes, Artifacts." Tang Zhenshan said, "Artifacts have many magical uses such as harmonizing Fengshui, drawing luck, subduing monsters and demons etc. For a Shaman, an Artifact was akin to a Sword for a Swordsman. Only Artifacts can rouse the interest of a genuine Shaman. You can definitely attract a genuine expert using them."
Qin Weiping felt embarrassed, "But I don\'t have any Artifacts."
Just where am I supposed to get them when even those Shamans couldn\'t find them?!
"Does Old Father have any?"
Tang Zhenshan shook his head. Artifacts could only be discovered but not sought. He said, "I\'ve been looking for an Artifact for a long time but I\'ve never had the fortune of obtaining one. However, I have several antiques gathered at home which might be Artifacts. They are enough to hold an Artifact Appreciation Expo. That ought to draw the genuine Shamans over."
"As for whether they\'ll act or not, that depends on your skill."
Qin Weiping was overjoyed, "Thank you very much for this, Old Father!"
He believed he could do it. Even Shamans have to eat and spend money.
Which human didn\'t like having more money?
…
Inside the classroom, the Physics class was going on. Spittle splashed out from the teacher\'s mouth and all of the students below were listening quite earnestly. As for Student Jiang Xiu, he was sitting upright yet his eyes were closed. It looked as if he was asleep. The teacher had taken note of him more than twice, but this student was a little special. He\'d beat up the Director of Student Affairs and caused the Headmaster to lose the job. None of the teachers dared to provoke him now.
They just let him be.
Actually, the teacher was mistaken. Our Student Jiang Xiu wasn\'t sleeping, he was doing an inner introspection to pry into the secrets of his body. In the inner world, Jiang Xiu was cultivating and continuously withdrawing the Godhead\'s hidden power with the intent to reach the Awakening Stage\'s 2nd
Mythical Realm. His Divine Force increased by a large margin with each realm he breaks through.However, after cultivating for several days, he discovered that the progress was too slow. There were reasons for this, one was that the divine bloodline in his body was sealed for too long and the other was that he lacked Heavenly Treasures.
Ding-Dong. The bell rung, indicating the end of the class. The teacher dragged the lesson on for another few minutes. Many teachers squeezed out whatever they could for the ending class and it was too good a thing if they dragged on only for a few minutes as some would extend it for half-an-hour.
After the final class, Jiang Xiu rushed to the dining hall. He had used up a considerable amount of energy during his cultivation and was famished with hunger.
"Jiang Xiu!"
"What?"
Ye Bing said, "There\'s no water in the classroom, go bring a few barrels of water."
Jiang Xiu\'s eyes opened wide, thinking he misheard her words. He, the majestic Deity Xiu was being asked to bring water. "Too preposterous. You actually dare to order this Deity to bring water?"
Ye Bing scowled. This brat is truly repulsive, always putting on airs, "What? You don\'t want to do it? Aren\'t you also a member of the class? Come with me obediently."
Jiang Xiu kept his hands in his pockets and directly walked away.
"You…"
Wei Kuan, a boarder like Jiang Xiu said, "Jiang Xiu, you\'re really amazing. You don\'t even pay attention to Campus Queen Ye. This brother really admires you, your heart remains motionless even when facing such a pretty woman. Is something wrong with your head or what? You\'re giving up such a good chance to interact alone."
Jiang Xiu smiled slightly, revealing contempt in his gaze. I can make out with a single look that you\'ve never interacted with girls. Since Fate led you to this Deity, might as well give you a few pointers, "A lot of women are like this. The more you fawn over them and spoil them, the more she\'ll consider you as a pushover. But if you assume a distant attitude, she\'ll instead take the initiative to get closer."
Wei Kuan was dumbfounded at the scene due to these words, he only reacted after blanking for a few seconds. "Damn! Jiang Xiu, you brat, you\'re really an expert! Come, teach me another two moves!"
Jiang Xiu said, "This one move is enough for you to use for a lifetime."
There were a lot of people in the dining hall during dining time, "Right, Jiang Xiu, we\'re going to jump over the dorm walls to visit the cybercafé tonight. Are you coming?"
"No." He was a cultivation madman so how could he waste such a good cultivation time as nighttime? "You go out each night which is just wasting the dorm fee you\'ve paid."
"Right, it\'s almost time to pay the dorm fee again."
Jiang Xiu asked, "They didn\'t collect it for this term yet?"
"Nope."
Jiang Xiu frowned, "How much is it?"
"1.8K RMB"
Deity Xiu appeared collected, but the corners of his eyes twitched. As far as he knew, paying the tuition fee and dorm fee every term left his parents in a difficult condition. He had experienced a rebirth, and Deity Xiu really couldn\'t bear the stain on his face for letting his parents pay for him. It wasn\'t realistic to borrow money from Wei Kuan and the others as even they wouldn\'t possess such an amount. Moreover, his friendship with them wasn\'t that deep. The only person he could think of was Ye Bing.
"Classmate Ye Bing!"
Ye Bing felt resentment without any reason when she heard Jiang Xiu\'s voice, she said coldly, "What? I\'m busy right now." She directly hung the call without any trace of politeness.
The phone started ringing energetically once again, Ye Bing answered it feeling somewhat helpless. "Can\'t you stop bothering me? Didn\'t I say I\'m busy now?"
"Classmate Ye Bing, this Deity has run into some trouble and needs your help."
Ye Bing didn\'t know whether to cry or laugh. She looked at Liu Xiaoyun beside her and then walked to the side, "Are you ill or what? Why are you coming to me if you\'re in trouble?"
"Because we\'re classmates and this Deity is close to you, there\'s no one else to go to. This Deity will owe you a favor, if only you have any wish, this Deity shall grant it to you."
Ye Bing giggled, speaking with contempt, "Your tone is pretty big. Only, this Lady can\'t imagine it. What can you even help me with?"
Jiang Xiu laughed lightly, "Everyone encounters ups and downs during their lifetime." He knew that in the future, Ye Bing will encounter trouble regarding love and finally choose to end her life before she even reached the age of 30.
Student Ye Bing said, "Is this the way you ask for help? Why does it sound like you\'re ordering me? A person asking for help should behave like one."
"Eh, Classmate Ye Bing, this Deity requests you."
"I can\'t feel the sincerity!"
"I request you, Lil\' Sis Bing!"
Ye Bing wasn\'t moved by this, but the words \'Lil\' Sis Bing\' caused her face to flush with anger. She smacked her lips, "You\'re truly shameless. Who\'s your Lil\' Sis Bing? Call me Big Sis. Come on child, tell me what you want now."
"Big Sis, I want to borrow 1.8K from you."
Ye Bing raised her beautiful brows, "You want to borrow money from me?"
They were still high school students after all and the financial power belonged to their parents. Ye Bing immediately understood the core of the matter. Jiang Xiu\'s familial conditions weren\'t well and the current season was the time to handover the dorm fees.
"Okay. Wait for me in the grove beside the school playground."
