Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Something must be wrong. What was the Helian family trying to do?
“Director, did the Helian family make any conditions?” Lu Zijia asked again after thinking for a while.
Du He took a sip of tea and said, “There’s no need to guess. Helian Zhao’s father has come out of seclusion. Helian Zhao listens to his father the most. He must have suddenly changed his mind after his father spoke.”
Lu Zijia had already briefly learned about the patriarchs of the four largest families, so she knew that the Helian Zhao that Du He was talking about was the current patriarch of the Helian family.
Hearing that, Lu Zijia was even more surprised. Apparently, she didn’t expect the head of the dignified Helian family to be afraid of his father. She had really learned something new!
“But the members of the Helian family are famous for being petty. You made a big fuss yesterday and made the Helian family lose face. They must hold a
grudge against you. So, you should stay in the Martial Arts Department to cultivate for the time being!” Du He reminded Lu Zijia kindly.
Immediately, Du He thought of something and said, “You should have heard about the Four Continents Competition a year later, right?”
Lu Zijia nodded slightly. “I’ve heard a bit about it.”
“At that time, your name will be on the participation list of the Martial Arts
Academy.”
Du He had no intention of asking Lu Zijia at all and directly decided for her. “There’s still a year. Don’t neglect your cultivation and do all kinds of nonsense.”
This girl was clearly from the Martial Arts Department, but she was either refining pills or drawing inscriptions all day. She was nowhere to be seen when she cultivated.
It simply made him, the dean of the Martial Arts Department, worry!
Lu Zijia: When did she neglect her cultivation? She had been very busy!
Besides, had the dean forgotten that if it weren’t for her pills, the Martial Arts Department wouldn’t be as popular as it was today?
The Dean was totally taking advantage of her!
Soon, the auction held by the Du family’s auction house finally started.
Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan were busy looking for a safe and secret place to advance, so they didn’t go to watch the auction.
However, after that, they heard that there was a sea of people at that time and the Du family’s auction house was almost full.
As the auction that shocked the entire Hongtian Empire ended, Lu Zijia also received hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones and also obtained a lot of high-level materials and spiritual plants.
There were even five or six Earth-level spiritual plants, which made Lu Zijia extremely satisfied.
After getting the things, Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan immediately announced that they were in seclusion for an unknown period of time.
This made the cultivators who couldn’t buy the Mystic Golden Core Pill at the auction so anxious that the corners of their mouths were bubbling.
At the same time, they couldn’t help but complain that the Helian family changed their minds so quickly.
If they didn’t change their minds, they could think of a way to help Lu Zijia collect her debt. This way, they could get the Mystic Golden Core Pill in seven days!
The cultivators who were anxious to ask for the Mystic Golden Core Pill were so anxious that the corners of their mouths were foaming from anxiety, and Du He, who was Lu Zijia’s “representative”, wasn’t much better either.
Apart from the cultivators outside looking for him, even the teachers and deans of Hongtian Academy looked for him, all wanting to ask him for the Mystic Golden Core Pill quickly.
But the problem was that he didn’t have the Mystic Golden Core Pill at all!
Du He, who was hounded by countless people every day, couldn’t help but be furious when he thought of Lu Zijia, who threw such a mess to him.
And Lu Zijia, who was missed by countless people, had already arrived at the place they stepped on first with Mu Tianyan at this moment.
This place was at the back of the Martial Arts Academy, at the bottom of the cliff that appeared almost endless..
