Chapter 375 You Can't Call Me By My Given Name!
Sitting in his office, buried in paperwork, Ji Pingyang suddenly looked up, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
"The Jian Wan (sword pill) shattered, in Suzhou? What unsolvable trouble could they run into in Suzhou? These kids really don't let me rest easy!"
Ji Pingyang shook his head with a wry smile. Then, he put down his work and prepared to rush to Suzhou.
Now that he could use his powers in the real world, it wouldn't take long for him to reach Suzhou at his speed.
But before leaving, Ji Pingyang had one more thing to take care of.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Ji Pingyang pounded on the door to Qiao Yu's dormitory building.
"Who is it? Who's knocking on my door like their mom died in the middle of the night?"
Mo Qingchou's irritable voice came from inside, and Ji Pingyang's face instantly turned green.
They were twins, but it wasn't hard to see why he only liked the older sister and not the younger one... Mo Qingchou was a good girl, but unfortunately, she had a mouth.
Mo Qingchou was woken up in a daze, so it was no wonder she was so irritable.
When she opened the door and saw it was Ji Pingyang, the disheveled Mo Qingchou was stunned. The curse words she was about to spew out caught in her throat.
"Mo Qingchou..."
Bang!
Ji Pingyang had just opened his mouth when the door slammed shut, almost hitting his nose!
Ji Pingyang: "..."
Then came a rustling sound from inside. After a while, Mo Qingchou, now wearing a form-fitting qipao, reopened the door.
As soon as Mo Qingchou saw Ji Pingyang, she immediately started with the sarcasm again.
"Oh? Isn't this our great President of Kyoto University? What brings you here, running to see a dormitory aunt like me in the middle of the night?"
"Mo Qingchou, I have some urgent business and need to leave Kyoto University for a while. I need you to look after it!" Ji Pingyang didn't waste words and went straight to the point.
"Oh? I don't have the ability. How could a dormitory aunt like me help you watch over the university? I'm not qualified."
The sarcasm on Mo Qingchou's face intensified. He only came to her when he needed something. When everything was fine, he didn't bother to have a heart-to-heart talk with her at night?
Tch! Scumbag!
"This card, the password is six zeros, there's a million inside."
Ji Pingyang didn't say much more and directly handed over a card. He knew exactly how to communicate with Mo Qingchou.
Sure enough, Mo Qingchou immediately put away the card, a thick smile instantly appearing on her face.
"No problem! I will definitely watch over Kyoto University for you! Not even a fly will be able to sneak in and make trouble!"
Ji Pingyang nodded. Shen Jianshu was also extremely busy now. If Mo Qingchou wasn't there to help him watch over Kyoto University, he really wouldn't be able to leave with peace of mind.
"Thank you! I'll be going now!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ji Pingyang finished speaking, Mo Qingchou's smiling face instantly darkened.
"No need to thank me, my great President Ji. This is just a transaction. You provide the money, and I provide the labor. It's very fair."
Mo Qingchou emphasized the word "transaction" with great emphasis, and the way she gritted her teeth made Ji Pingyang a little scared.
He didn't know what he had done to offend this woman. He was just saying thank you, was there really a need for such a big reaction?
But he shook his head and didn't think too much about it. Getting to Suzhou now was the top priority.
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
Ji Pingyang said and threw out the Kunwu Sword, which instantly transformed into a vast, sun-shielding broadsword.
Ji Pingyang stepped onto it, and the Kunwu Sword shot out instantly, much faster than any aircraft. As a sword cultivator, how could he not know how to fly on a sword?
Seeing Ji Pingyang really leave again, just like last time, turning around and leaving after saying what he needed to say, Mo Qingchou punched the iron door in anger.
Bang! A large dent was punched into the heavy iron door downstairs of the dormitory!
The noise naturally woke up many students who were staying on campus, and they poked their heads out, wondering what had happened.
But the next moment, they heard a roar.
"What are you looking at? All of you, get back to sleep!"
Patta, patta, patta. The sound of lights being turned off resounded throughout the entire dormitory.
In this building, no student dared to provoke Mo Qingchou, the dormitory aunt.
Mo Qingchou's anger hadn't subsided, and her ample chest heaved up and down.
She had even made a special trip to put on makeup and dress up to see Ji Pingyang, but Ji Pingyang was as dense as a log!
"Ji Pingyang, I don't believe you can really be as saintly as a Buddha. If I can't seduce you, I'll drug you, just you wait!"
...
"Hiss! That hurts!"
Qiao Yu woke up clutching his chest. The sound of gurgling water entered his ears. He looked around.
This didn't seem to be Suzhou. There were bushes everywhere, and he couldn't see any modern buildings. He could even hear the chirping of insects from time to time.
Strange, didn't he faint after being attacked by the Wood King? How did he end up here?
"You're finally awake?"
A calm voice sounded. Qiao Yu looked over and saw a man wearing a straw raincoat and hat next to a small river.
The man was holding a fishing rod, as if he was fishing.
"Who are you?"
Qiao Yu instantly became vigilant.
"Don't be so nervous. If I wanted to kill you, a hundred lives wouldn't be enough."
The man continued to focus on fishing, watching his fishing rod, as if he wasn't afraid that Qiao Yu would take the opportunity to sneak attack him or run away.
"Are you one of the Eight Kings?" Qiao Yu asked tentatively.
"Eight Kings? Heh, laughable."
The man shook his head upon hearing this, then suddenly pulled up his fishing rod, lifting a huge crucian carp directly out of the river.
The fish flopped its tail constantly after being pulled ashore. The man reached out and gently pressed down on the fish's head, and the entire fish instantly stopped moving.
"The Eight Kings, they are not qualified to be mentioned in the same breath as me. If I respect them, then they are the Eight Kings. If I don't want to, then in front of me, they are no different from soft-shelled turtles."
The man's words were clearly extremely arrogant, but his tone was very indifferent, as if the words he spoke were the truth.
The corners of Qiao Yu's mouth couldn't help but twitch. If the Eight Kings were so powerful that they could be considered soft-shelled turtles, then what was a weakling like him, who was beaten to a pulp by the Eight Kings?
After putting the fish into the fish basket, the man slowly stood up and turned to face Qiao Yu.
He took off the straw hat on his head, revealing a very ordinary, average face, with black-framed glasses on his face.
The moment he saw this face, Qiao Yu's pupils shrank into pinpoints!
Because he had just seen this man's face not long ago, in the information on Bai Ze Corporation that Fang Biao had given him!
This man's name was Bai Shiyan!
Bai Shiyan looked at Qiao Yu's reaction and didn't seem surprised. Instead, he showed a gratified smile.
"It seems you recognize me."
Qiao Yu didn't hide it and nodded slowly.
"Of course, one of the founders of Bai Ze Corporation, Bai Shiyan. It seems that the real commander behind Bai Ze is you?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qiao Yu finished speaking, Bai Shiyan's brows furrowed instantly, and Qiao Yu suddenly felt a terrifying aura suppressing him.
Qiao Yu instantly felt his body lose control and was unable to move. The terror of this aura was no less than that of the God of Death, Thanatos!
"You cannot call my name directly!" Bai Shiyan's tone was very displeased.
"Why?" Now it was Qiao Yu's turn to be confused.
"Because I, Bai Shiyan, am your blood-related uncle, Qiao Yu!"
