Chapter 537 - “White Knight” Jiang Chao (2/2)

“Hmm… you’re talking so righteously, but why haven’t I discovered such nobility from you before? Haha, in the end, you just want to steal someone’s girlfriend. But let me remind you; this wall is too high to climb. If you dare to try casually, be careful that you don’t fall to your death! Hahahaha!…”

“Right, right. At that time our Young Master Jiang Chao from Qinzhou will be the first man to die to a wall. That’ll be really shameful,” the students around him mocked, not believing Jiang Chao’s explanation at all.

Jiang Chao showed a helpless look, no longer bothering to defend himself.

-Freaking hell, you think I don’t know Huang Tielan’s background, and I am not really here to seduce her?

-You might not believe me if I say it out loud, but I’m really prepared to act as their white knight this time, without looking for anything in return.-

Jiang Chao had come into contact with Zhang Che once or twice, be it directly or indirectly. Also, his family wasn’t weak, and he knew quite a lot about Zhang Che’s matters. Naturally Jiang Chao wouldn’t dare to try steal Zhang Che’s girlfriend. He’d be looking to die if that happened!

However, although he had no intention of seducing Huang Tielan, this was a pretty good opportunity for him as well. If Huang Tielan’s group really met with danger, and he managed to save them in time, it’d definitely turn into Zhang Che owing him a huge favor. With that, his clan could make friends with Zhang Che and the Huang family.

Although Jiang Chao was only a university freshman, he had lived in a large clan all his life, and he was far more mature than his peers of the same age. Although he had always acted rather flippantly and seemed like a playboy, he was a child from a large clan, after all. He knew how to make use of all kinds of resources available to him.

Even though the Huang family had surely arranged men to protect Huang Tielan in the dark, sometimes accidents happened when you weren’t expecting it. Using the excuse of admiring the girls to follow them with a group of students with decent strength, they could definitely provide help immediately if they were to come into danger.

The students around Jiang Chao were still mocking him endlessly, but the corners of his lips drew back into an inexplicable faint smile.

-How can you guys possibly know what I’m really thinking?-

The Bei Du University freshmen gradually spread out. The staff in charge of security had tried their best to keep the area contained, ensuring nothing unexpected would happen.

Suddenly, a small team of beastmasters emerged from the woods at the side, pursuing a few exotic beasts and unknowingly entered the area the Bei Du University freshmen were at.

A staff from Bei Du University quickly stepped forward and asked them very politely not to approach any further.

“Halt. This area is the training grounds for Bei Du University freshmen. Please cooperate with us and try not to come in and disturb our students’ training.”

A tall, skinny woman with high cheekbones in the team of beastmasters immediately felt dissatisfied when she heard this. She stared at the staff and said, “Hey, did the Bei Du University buy this piece of land or something? We’re pursuing exotic beasts on our own. How have we gotten in your way?”

The staffer from Bei Du University was immediately shot down by her words, nearly losing his ability to speak.

She was speaking the truth. Anyone could come into the beast world, and the Bei Du University didn’t have the rights to this area, either. On what basis were they not letting anyone in?

Although the reasoning was sound, in reality, since the Bei Du University had expressed that they were using this area as training grounds for the students, ordinary beastmasters should respect the university’s prestige, more or less, and stay away.

There wasn’t anything good in this area, anyway. They could just go somewhere else. There was no need to get into a dispute with a huge entity like the Bei Du University.

“Sorry, sorry. She just lost two subdued beasts while chasing those exotic beasts and isn’t in a good mood,” a slightly overweight youth hurriedly stepped forward and explained calmly after seeing the Bei Du University staffer’s awkward expression. “Please understand our plight. We’ll leave this area immediately after killing those exotic beasts. We definitely won’t cause any trouble for the university.”

The staffer’s expression immediately turned a little better. Although they didn’t want to give off the feeling that the Bei Du University was being too forceful and unreasonable, the students’ safety came first. It’d be for the best if they didn’t let any outsider beastmasters enter the area.

Seeing them acting so submissively, in addition to them promising to leave after killing their prey, it would be unreasonable for the staffer to act too harshly.

He considered for a moment with knitted brow, then said, “You guys go kill those exotic beasts as fast as possible and leave immediately.”

The staffer sounded a little impatient. The woman with high cheekbones stared at him, seemingly about to flare up again, but was pulled back by the chubby youth and he signalled to her with his gaze, not allowing her to speak up again.

“We’re really sorry, big brother. Rest assured, we’ll leave immediately after killing those exotic beasts. We definitely won’t disturb those geniuses. My younger brother is a university student himself; I can understand the school’s intentions. We won’t make any trouble for you!”

The Bei Du University staffer nodded slightly and waved his hand at them, hinting for them to quickly be done with their matters and leave.

The team of beastmasters immediately directed their subdued beasts to quickly chase after the exotic beasts who were about to disappear from their sight, their expressions anxious. It seemed like they really wanted to kill their prey.

Seeing they weren’t acting suspicious, and their strength was only decent as best, the Bei Du University staffer no longer paid any heed to them, only watching from afar and not letting them head in any further.

However, he didn’t notice that while he was interacting with this team of beastmasters, a few silhouettes had passed through the area he was in charge of monitoring, and had crept deeper into the area!
