Chapter 166 (2/2)
”Brother Luo, my condolences for your loss, but stay strong,” said Xiang Shaoyun, thinking that Luo Yongcheng was still mourning the princ.i.p.al's death.
Luo Yongcheng shook his head silently. He took out a few bottles of liquor and said, ”Come, drink with me.”
Xiang Shaoyun did not hesitate. He lifted one of the bottles and chugged it down.
Luo Yongcheng also drank a large mouthful of liquor before he sighed. ”Brother, I think it's best you leave today.”
”Oh? Are the Redwolf Bandits attacking? That's unlikely, right?” Xiang Shaoyun asked in astonishment.
The Redwolf Bandits had suffered an even more disastrous loss than the academy. They did not have many Transformation Realm experts left. It was highly unlikely that they would be attacking at this time.
”No, it has nothing to do with the Redwolf Bandits. It is the academy's internal affairs. It's embarra.s.sing, but things have been chaotic in the academy recently,” Luo Yongcheng said with a mocking tone.
Xiang Shaoyun was no fool. From Luo Yongcheng's tone, he could hear that an internal dispute had erupted in the academy. He took another chug of liquor before saying, ”Brother, don't worry about it. I will leave right after this drinking session. We will still remain friends after this.”
”I am really sorry. You were helping us kill the Redwolf Bandits and had even taught us the saber intent, yet those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are abandoning you once they have no other uses for you. They even want to chase you out of town and are blaming you for the princ.i.p.al's death. Those ungrateful scoundrels!” Luo Yongcheng said with a look of disgust.
”Is that really what they think?” Xiang Shaoyun frowned.
”Hehe, yes, that is what they think,” Luo Yongcheng said. He raised the liquor bottle and said, ”Come, let's drink to our heart's content. It is my honor to have a friend as heroic as you, Brother Xiang.”
After a while of drinking, Xiang Shaoyun's eyes suddenly lit up as he said, ”Brother Luo, have you ever thought of strengthening the Green Bamboo Academy?”
”Of course I have. But what can I do?” Luo Yongcheng answered.
”So long as you are willing to do it, consider it done,” Xiang Shaoyun said.
”Brother, what do you have in mind?” Luo Yongcheng asked, his hands shaking.
”I think you are best suited for the position of princ.i.p.al,” Xiang Shaoyun said directly.
Luo Yongcheng dropped the bottle he was holding in shock. The bottle broke when it hit the ground, and the liquor flowed out and drenched the bottom part of his pants.
”N-no, we can't speak about something like this lightly,” Luo Yongcheng said with a low voice.
”Brother Luo, don't be nervous. If you really want the best for the Green Bamboo Academy, I think you should firm your heart. I can help you with it,” Xiang Shaoyun said with a faint smile. He finally knew Luo Yongcheng's real purpose here. All along, Luo Yongcheng had most likely been waiting for those words.
