966 Negotiations (2/2)
Venerable Three Star was obviously extending his goodwill, and it almost seemed like he had intentions to take him in as his disciple.
”Hold on, Principal. What are you talking about? Why can't I understand this?” Han Yunfeng was confused.
”All you have to know is that this student's information is top-secret. I don't think you want me to send out a purger, do you?” Venerable Three Star smiled.
”No! Of course not!” Han Yunfeng suddenly felt a chill and did not dare not ask more. ”I'll go out for a while!”
He also realized that Fang Yuan's gift in alchemy alone would be sufficient to warrant East Dragon University's protection, not to mention his other secrets.
”Mentor Han Yunfeng, I am a contract lawyer directly under the school. I need you to verify this confidentiality agreement here!”
At this moment, an expressionless cultivator in blood-red clothes came to him.
”No problem!”
This was a cultivator trained by the school who specialized in curses. Contracts that were notarized by him were legally binding and bound by his curse. Anyone who broke the contract would face a horrifying fate.
Han Yunfeng smiled bitterly for a moment before leaving his spiritual will signature on it.
…
Inside the courtyard house, Fang Yuan thought of something and took out an item. ”This is a strange object that I obtained in a special encounter. I can lend it to the school for research!”
Everything he did was to be protected. Even him dismantling the Wings of the Sky was to erase traces. His only flaw was killing the three Golden Core cultivators instantly.
Since Fang Yuan planned to continue studying at East Dragon University, he wanted to make up for this flaw.
”This is…” Venerable Three Star stared at that thin needle and suddenly recalled the image from the Heavenly Eye when Fang Yuan killed three Golden Core cultivators at once.
”When I first got it, I thought that it was just a regular needle. However, it seems like it can penetrate any object. To date, I haven't found a material that can defend against it! Even Golden Core Mystics' true elemental shields and magical weapons are like paper in front of it. I merely relied on it to kill Red Tarantula's great commander!”
Of course, this was not his magical weapon seed. It was not even a weapon that was enhanced by the Omnidirectional Divine Demonic Armament Dao.
It looked simple and unassuming. Costing 0.01 star dollars, it was a standard sewing needle that anyone could find in a shop.
However, Fang Yuan had used the Impermanence Great Dao to turn it into a Derivative. On top of that, he gave it with the 'sharp' peculiarity.
”That's definitely not an ordinary needle!”
Venerable Three Star was well-learned, but after examining it, he nearly burst out cursing. ”How can something like this exist in the universe? Is there such a huge gap in our science?”
If one were to say that this world's science and technology was an Orthodox Dao, the Impermanence Great Dao was thoroughly the antithesis of it!
Its existence would cause scientists to collapse in disbelief and begin doubting the world.
Fang Yuan was really looking forward to it. He wondered how deep this world would go into the research of peculiarities.
”Sorry… I forgot myself!” Venerable Three Star apologized. ”Its existence is unreasonable. Student Lin Meng, thank you for your generosity. Perhaps, it may point out a brand new direction in our scientific knowledge!”
He had valued Fang Yuan before, but now the principal felt that this needle was more important than anything else!
This was the common failing of a researcher.
”The researchers from tool refinement and materials departments will also be grateful to you!”
Venerable Three Star was excited. He could not wait to leave and take the needle to a laboratory for research.
As he was leaving, it seemed like he remembered something. He patted his head. ”Oh! Also, regarding Wu Sanhuai, even Wu Wudi hasn't mentioned anything about the police. Furthermore, in the Wasteland, fighting back in self-defense isn't an offense! As for Red Tarantula's leaders, those three people had bounties on them. We'll transfer the reward to your account in a while!”
He was very satisfied with this first meeting. Not only did they reach a consensus, but he had also obtained a precious research subject!
He immediately forgot about all the trivial matters.
…
”You…”
After Venerable Three Star left, Han Yunfeng returned to the house. He looked at Fang Yuan with a complex expression. ”Forget it… I won't ask you anything. You can tell me what you want!”
”Uh…” Fang Yuan released his Breath Holding Dao Art, and the fluctuations of his Golden Core emerged. ”I've reached the Golden Core stage!”
”…”
…
”Genius! You're a true genius!”
After a while, Han Yunfeng finally calmed down. He stared at Fang Yuan like he was a monster. ”This must be why the principal came to see you!”
As for Wu Wudi and the mecha, Fang Yuan mentioned none of it. He was afraid that Han Yunfeng would faint from the shock.
”With your cultivation and level of alchemy, you should just skip a year! Why continue with your first year?”
After a series of shocks, Han Yunfeng was left with excitement. ”Even though your alchemy and cultivation have surpassed many graduates, I still recommend you start as a second-year and study the contents of the pharmacy department completely…”
”Sorry…” Fang Yuan shrugged. ”I've thought about it, and my true dream is to enter the mecha department!”
”Huh???”
