Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

Chapter 210 Ning Xing Returns

Xiao Weiqing crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair.

"It doesn't matter who you're facing, but you do need to know who you'll be dealing with in a few days."

The woman gritted her teeth, her chest heaving violently.

Once upon a time, a mere boy dared to speak to him like that; the last person to speak to him like that had long since been fed to a demon beast.

"Xiao Weiqing, what do you want? Just say it."

Zhou Weihua said coldly, his eyes filled with malice.

Xiao Weiqing grinned.

"1000 Shen Yun"

"Having 1000 copies of Shen Yun will help me forget unpleasant things."

"You're insane!"

"You won first place in the national exchange competition, but you only have 1000 squares of divine charm." Zhou Weihua looked at Xiao Weiqing in disbelief.

The woman was even more furious, "Are you sure you want to be an enemy of the Zhou family?"

Qian Yi, who was standing to the side, was also shocked. She hadn't expected Xiao Weiqing to have such audacity to make such an exorbitant demand. Although she was in the academy and there was nothing to worry about, the Zhou family was no ordinary family.

Judging from Xiao Weiqing's expression, Qian Yi couldn't quite figure out his true thoughts. However, Xiao Weiqing was right; Ning Xing would be back soon, and given Ning Xing's temper, it wasn't impossible for him to directly confront the Zhou family.

Just then.

When Qian Yi's thigh was touched by two fingers, she felt a jolt all over her body, and a blush flashed across her face.

"That brat, doesn't he know where he is?"

He instinctively wanted to scold Xiao Weiqing.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Weiqing gesturing under the table with one of his hands.

Qian Yi composed herself, sat up straight, and said, "Alright, this is Luojiang Academy, not your Zhou family's."

"The 500 tablets of Shenyun will be delivered tomorrow. This matter ends here. Xiao Weiqing, you don't need to say anything more. It's a small matter, don't bother Principal Ning."

Chu Bo then smoothed things over, saying, "That's right, Principal Ning just came out of the demon realm, there's no need to disturb him."

"Teacher Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhou Weihua looked at the woman beside him.

"500 it is! Yan'er, let's go."

The woman left with Zhou Yan and Zhou Weihua.

Chu Bo then left as well.

Only Qian Yi and Xiao Weiqing remained.

"You brat, you're not afraid of death, asking for 1000 units of divine essence."

"Let's bargain."

"Besides, they offered it to me themselves. I was thinking 200 square meters of Shenyun would be fine, but who knew they would give me 500 square meters too."

"Teacher Qian, you're really amazing." Xiao Weiqing gave a thumbs up and flattered him.

Qian Yi said irritably, "It has nothing to do with me. They're afraid of your teacher. You should know that there's an old geezer in the Zhou family who's an eighth-level expert."

"Eight Realms?"

Xiao Weiqing was startled. "Then why are you afraid of the teacher?"

"It's all because Principal Ning killed a demon lord in the demon realm. Otherwise, why do you think they'd be rushing to apologize? What were they doing all this time?"

"What?"

Xiao Weiqing was greatly alarmed.

"The teacher slew a demon lord?"

"you do not know?"

"I don't know. I left a message for the teacher, but she hasn't replied."

"Maybe something's wrong, or maybe the bracelet is broken."

"Snapped!"

Xiao Weiqing slapped his thigh again, looking annoyed.

"What's wrong with you now?"

"I should have 5000 square meters!"

"?"

"Why don't you want 50000?" Qian Yi said irritably.

"Can the Zhou family afford it?" Xiao Weiqing asked in return.

"You big idiot."

"You actually dare to think that way."

Qian Yi stretched out her slender fingers and pressed hard on Xiao Weiqing's forehead.

"I'm leaving."

......

the next day.

Xiao Weiqing received 500 units of divine essence, which is a type of mineral called immeasurable iron.

The name sounds impressive, but it's the worst kind of divine essence substance. It's a fist-sized piece of Wuji Iron that contains only one aspect of the essence, not a trace of anything more.

However, this was a timely help, and Xiao Weiqing once again entered the frenzied Samadhi True Fire Fusion mode.

It could be said that he was so engrossed in his work that he forgot to eat and sleep.

Five days later.

Xiao Weiqing stopped cultivating before he had even used up more than two hundred units of divine essence, because Ning Xing had returned.

The professor's residential area.

"Teacher, what's wrong?"

At this moment, Ning Xing was lying on the chair, wrapped up like a mummy.

"I fought a demon lord and was slightly injured, but I'm actually fine now. However, on my way back, I wanted to lure out some enemies, so I deliberately made it look like this."

Xiao Weiqing chuckled. It's not scary for martial arts practitioners to be reckless; what's scary is when they start using their brains.

"Teacher, you've broken through to the eighth realm?"

"no."

Xiao Weiqing was taken aback. "No? Then how did you kill the Demon Lord?"

Ning Xing took out a cigar and started smoking. "If you can slay a fourth-realm raging bull demon at the third realm, it's reasonable for me to slay a demon lord at the seventh realm, right?"

"Uh...maybe, that makes sense..."

Xiao Weiqing verbally agreed, but inwardly he was furious. What a load of rubbish! How can these be the same?

"Tell me, this expedition to the ruins resulted in fewer than 30 of you surviving, a devastating loss."

"Wait...you broke through the Jiaji barrier?"

Ning Xing suddenly sat up straight, his brows furrowing more and more tightly.

"Teacher, I sent you a message right away. You can check your bracelet if you don't believe me." Xiao Weiqing quickly explained when she saw Ning Xing was about to get angry.

"Really? My bracelet broke during the battle and I just got it replaced. I didn't notice it."

"Continue with the story of the Samsung ruins."

After a moment's thought, Xiao Weiqing organized his thoughts and recounted the events that had occurred at the Sanxing Civilization Relics site.

"Sigh...what a pity."

Ning Xing felt a sense of impending doom.

"Teacher, do you know what the Primordial Divine Light is?"

"Never heard of it."

"Teacher, I met a demon god this time."

"What, are you scared?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, then shook his head. "It would be a lie to say I'm not afraid, but I'm not that afraid either. The main problem is that I don't know just how strong this being is, so I'm not sure."

"Ha ha...."

"Good, very good! Weiqing, you are truly different."

Ning Xing laughed heartily, his expression conveying a sense of great satisfaction and appreciation.

"Teacher, what does that mean?"

Xiao Weiqing was a little confused by Ning Xing.

Ning Xing said, "Do you know that some people are more afraid the stronger they are?"

They have already broken through the seventh and eighth realms and think they are very strong, but they still can't do it. They can't even see the shadow of a god when it comes to doing what gods do.

They discovered that no matter how much they cultivated themselves, an insurmountable chasm remained between them and the gods, so they became afraid and hesitant.

"But you are different. You are only at the third level of strength, yet you have witnessed a god take action. But I did not see any fear of the god in your eyes. Even I would not dare to say that I could do the same."

"oh."

Xiao Weiqing didn't think it was a big deal.

"Oh, right, teacher, this is for you."

Xiao Weiqing handed the two temple keys to Ning Xing and then recounted his affair with the Zhou family.

"Is this the key to the Three Star Temple?"

"It should be, hehe..." Xiao Weiqing's eyes flickered.

Ning Xing glared at him. "Trying to use me as a shield, huh? Fine, I'll leave this here. I'll spread the word, and whoever wants it can come and get it."

"Is there still a third left with the Zhou family? Should I take it back?"

Xiao Weiqing shook his head, "No need, teacher. I'll get it back myself. If you take it, what excuse will I use to find Zhou Yan later?"

"You little brat, just do as you say."

"And this one too."

Xiao Weiqing took out the crystal that Bridget had given him.

"What is this now?"

"A technology: gravity chambers."

Whoosh!

Ning Xing suddenly stood up.

"What did you say?!"

Xiao Weiqing replied, "This is a gift from the Three Star God Child Pertz. There were many good things in that hall at the time, and he allowed me to take one with me."

I examined it carefully. Only the core material of the gravity chamber is relatively scarce, and Earth doesn't lack much of it, so it should be possible to replicate it.

"At the very least, a low-spec version will do."
