Chapter 209 - Exploded Again
Chapter 209: Exploded Again
Along with a sudden explosion, the roof of the entire villa was torn open.
The sea of fire was raging and burning.
In the bathroom on the first floor, Duan Ye adjusted his hair. Just as he opened the door, his long hair was scorched by a ball of fire.
“?”
Duan Ye: “I… I have to…”
“…Ke?”
“Run!” At the side, Bahuang Yao urged her strength and dashed to Duan Ye’s side in a few flashes. She grabbed his clothes and dragged them out.
“Hu–”
In less than a second, the two of them rushed out of the wall of fire. When they looked back, they saw that the originally exquisite two-story villa had completely fallen into the sea of fire.
Even the ancient tree next to them was not spared.
“What… What happened?” Duan Ye scratched his charred long hair, his face full of confusion.
“I don’t know.” The young girl shook her head. “It suddenly caught fire.”
“Where did it start?”
“The second floor…”
“…” Duan Ye was dazed for a moment. Then, he patted his head. “Did they f*cking start fighting?”
“Who started fighting…”
“Your brother and Chen Yu!”
“Why… Why…”
“Do you even need to ask?” Duan Ye pointed at the sea of fire. “As the saying goes, two tigers cannot live on the same mountain. Your brother and Chen Yu are both the king of tough-acting. Why aren’t they fighting each other when they meet?”
“Ah…” Bahuang Yao was at a loss.
Dong!
At this moment, the load-bearing wall on the second floor of the villa was shattered, and two figures jumped out in a sorry state. They were covered in dust and dirt as they patted the remaining flames on their bodies.
They were Bahuang Yi’s two subordinates.
As for Bahuang Yi, he was still sitting on the chair behind the table with a calm expression.
Through the collapsed wall, Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao could still see that Chen Yu was also sitting within the sea of fire, looking at Bahuang Yi.
“How was it?” Chen Yu asked. “Did you see it?”
“I did.” Bahuang Yi’s tone was indifferent. “It was beyond my expectations. Very outstanding spiritual power.”
“How outstanding?”
“Just a little less than me.”
“Really? I don’t believe it.”
Bahuang Yi said seriously, “I don’t lie.”
Chen Yu nodded. “I lie. That’s why I often say that I never lie.”
“…” Bahuang Yi fell silent.
Sitting in the sea of fire, he used some unknown method to completely block out the flames and did not suffer any harm.
After a while, he said, “This place is on fire.”
Chen Yu said, “It’s obvious.”
“Why aren’t you leaving?”
“Why aren’t you leaving too?”
Bahuang Yi said, “Your clothes are already burning.”
Chen Yu spread his hands. “It’s fine, I’m used to it…”
“I’m f*cking used to it.” Outside the villa, Duan Ye shouted, “Chen Yu! Stop acting cool! Hurry up and come out!”
Chen Yu turned his head. “I don’t want to.”
Duan Ye immediately cried. “Brother Yu! I’m begging you! Hurry up and come out…”
“…Forget it. If it wasn’t for my brother pleading for mercy today, I would have stayed naked with you.” With a way out, Chen Yu naturally did not want to reveal his secret. He gracefully jumped out of the villa and calmly extinguished the flames on his clothes.
Then, he patted Duan Ye on the shoulder. “Good brother, thank you for your concern.”
“I’m not worried about you.” Duan Ye cursed. “I’m afraid that you’ll snatch my clothes later.”
Chen Yu: “…”
[Psychological damage received: Spirit +5]
Buzz buzz buzz —
In the next moment, a silent pressure was leisurely transmitted over.
Bahuang Yi stood up and floated in the air. He passed through the exploded ceiling and stood on the roof.
Then, with a dull thud, Bahuang Yi released a light blue force and waved his right hand lightly
Boom!
An invisible shockwave crashed down like Mount Tai, instantly crushing the entire villa into the ground.
The fire was naturally extinguished…
Chen Yu: “…”
After a moment of silence, Chen Yu turned to look at Duan Ye. “Is this how you magicians extinguish fire?”
“How cool!” Duan Ye gulped, and his eyes lit up. “This is the pride of our Qi martial arts profession…”
“So he’s a mage?” Chen Yu raised his eyebrows.
“What else?” Duan Ye asked back. “With such a high energy conversion ratio, if you don’t become a mage, how can you still be a mere physical martial artist?”
“…You’re about to be beaten up by a physical martial artist. I told you.”
In the air.
The floating Bahuang Yi slowly descended. He glanced at Chen Yu before turning around and walking towards the villa next door. “The interrogation isn’t over yet. Continue.”
“No problem. I’ll definitely cooperate with you.” Chen Yu followed. “Oh right, you don’t need me to compensate you, right? You’re the one who told me to burn it.”
“No need.”
The other two subordinates also wanted to follow, but were stopped by Bahuang Yi. “You guys stay here.”
“…Yes.”
After Chen Yu and Bahuang Yi ‘switched’ battlefield…
Not long after, several wind-breaking sounds came from afar.
Looking closely, they saw a group of masked men wearing gold-lined robes.
“The school’s Law Enforcement Team!” Duan Ye exclaimed.
Soon, the man in the lead of the Law Enforcement Team arrived in front of everyone at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye. He let out an unrecognizable, semi-mechanical voice. “What exploded just now?”
…
In another villa, only Chen Yu and Bahuang Yi were left. Bahuang Yi did not look for a study room and directly sat on the sofa in the living room.
“You have a very strong spiritual talent. Why didn’t you choose to major in Qi martial arts?”
“I’d like to.”
“Do you want to join the Student Union?”
“No.”
“You have enmity towards me.”
“Isn’t that obvious?”
Bahuang Yi’s gaze was like an ancient well, calm and unruffled. “It’s because of my sister.”
“Oh?” Chen Yu was surprised. “Do you still remember that you have a sister?”
Hearing this, Bahuang Yi fell silent. After a long while, he took out a wooden box from his robe and placed it on the table.
Chen Yu looked down. “What’s the matter?”
“Yours.”
“For me?”
“Yes.” Bahuang Yi nodded.
Bending down, Chen Yu looked at him suspiciously. “Is it a landmine?”
“…No.”
“Lime?”
“No.”
“Then what is it?”
“You’ll know when you open it.”
“Are you dreaming?” Chen Yu took two steps back and sneered. “I just burned down your house. How dare I take the things you gave me?”
Bahuang Yi did not answer. He did it himself and opened the lid of the box.
Inside were ten neatly arranged pills!
“These are… Qi Boosting Sills?”
“They are Spirit Enhancement Pills,” Bahuang Yi said indifferently. “One pill is equivalent to 1,000 Qi Boosting Pills.”
“Are… Are they for me?” Chen Yu was dumbfounded.
“Yes.”
Upon hearing those words, Chen Yu’s mind jolted!
This thick-browed and big-eyed dog was really trying to harm him!
One pill was equivalent to 1,000 Qi Boosting Pills. If he were to eat all of them…
Even though he had to pay with his life, he had to pay back the debt.
However, they were both martial artists and cultivation was not easy. Just by burning down one of his houses, the other party wanted to be so ruthless?
With this thought in mind, Chen Yu’s eyes flashed with a strong killing intent. “You are so ruthless.”
Bahuang Yi: “…?”
“Although you are not kind, since you have given it to me, if I don’t accept it, it will be a loss of face for you.”
As he said that, Chen Yu closed the wooden cover and put the Spirit Enhancement Pill into his pocket. “I’m a person who likes to give face, so naturally, I can’t not give you face. I’ll take the thing. Forget about the thought, I won’t accept it.”
Bahuang Yi:”…What are you talking about?”
“Don’t mind the details.” After putting away the Spirit Enhancement Pills, Chen Yu took a step back and started to calculate how much money he could sell it for.
One Qi Boosting Pill was worth 20,000 yuan.
That one Qi Boosting Pill was worth 20 million yuan. Just by adding it together…
Ten pills were 200 million yuan…
After coming back to his senses and taking a deep breath, Chen Yu evaluated bhang Yi, “You’re a good person, but a little bad.”
Bahuang Yi made the same expression as today and frowned. “What are you talking about?”
“Don’t worry about it.”
Waving his hand, Chen Yu’s expression returned to seriousness. “Why did you give me something like this?”
Bahuang Yi did not answer.
Chen Yu was deep in thought. “Could it be… that…”
Bahuang Yi nodded. “You guessed right.”
“…That you like me?”
Bahuang Yi: “…”
Crack —
Bahuang Yi broke one of his finger bones. “You… are serious?”
“Then why did you give me something?”
“I did it for… Ba… Ba…”
“Old Eight?”
“…Bahuang Yao.”
“You mean… you want to thank me for saving Bahuang Yao?”
Bahuang Yi was expressionless. His lips were tightly shut as he nodded. “Yes.”
“Since you’re thanking me, you’ve given me a gift. Don’t you know how to say ‘thank you’?”
“…You can leave now.”
“I won’t leave if you don’t say ‘thank you’.”
“Then I’ll chase you away.” Bahuang Yi’s anger flared up.
“Emmmm…” Scratching his ear, Chen Yu turned around. “Alright, I’ll leave now. Bye bye.”
Through the intentional probing of the last few sentences, Chen Yu had pretty much figured out Bahuang Yi’s personality.
Wasn’t this just a dead tsundere…
‘Looks like the relationship between these two people is much more complicated than it appears on the surface.’
While secretly ridiculing, Chen Yu placed his palm on the door handle. Before he could unscrew it, Bahuang Yi’s shout came from behind him.
“Wait a minute.”
“What?” Chen Yu stopped walking and turned his head.
“Are those pills all for you?”
“Huh?”
“You can only take one,” Bahuang Yi said indifferently.
Taking out the wooden box from his pocket, Chen Yu looked at the wooden box and then at Bahuang Yi. “After all this time, I’m just a delivery man?”
“One of them is yours.”
“Then I’ll have to thank you.”
“No need.” Bahuang Yi stood up and put on his hood. “Bahuang… Bahuang Yao is with you. Very good.”
“And then?”
“You can go.”
“Why don’t you give it to her yourself?” Chen Yu asked.
“You can go.”
“Why do you want me to give it to her?”
“You can go.”
“What if I don’t give it to her?” Chen Yu shook the wooden box. “I’ll use it myself.”
“You’re not that kind of person.” Bahuang Yi still had a dead fish face.
“Aiyo, so you know me quite well?”
“I do.”
“So… You’ve been secretly observing me for a long time.”
“Yes.”
Chen Yu sneered. “You still like me.”
Snap.
Bahuang Yi broke another finger bone, and his body trembled slightly. “…Get lost.”
“Bye bye.”
“And…”
Chen Yu retracted his steps. “Can you finish it in one go?”
“Don’t tell her.” Bahuang Yi stepped up the stairs and walked to the second floor. “Don’t tell her that it’s from me. If you tell her, she’ll have to bear the consequences.”
“Tsk tsk, alright. I’ll bite the hand that feeds me. Whatever you say is up to you. Listen more and speak less. It’s always been my way of enduring.”
After saying that, Chen Yu walked out of the villa and went straight to Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao.
“Here.”
He handed the box in his hand to Bahuang Yao.
“Uh… Ah?” The young girl took it in a daze, her face full of doubt. “What… What is this?”
“Spirit Enhancement Pills. Your brother gave it to me.”
“Ah?!” Bahuang Yao was shocked.
Boom!
The next second, a terrifying airwave suddenly spread out in the villa! It instantly exploded the entire villa!
Then, the Law Enforcement Team, which had just left for less than half a minute, rushed back in a hurry.
The masked man, who was the leader, was furious. “What exploded again?!”
“The villa…”
“Damn it! Are you guys done?!”
…
On that day, the interrogation notes of Chen Yu and the other two were handed over to the Academic Affairs Office.
Along with them was Chen Yu’s talent update report.
That night, a few professors from the Qi Martial Arts School rushed into the Physical Martial Arts School, and a fight that lasted for 74 seconds broke out.
Almost all the students in the Institute of Martial Arts heard the loud sound, but they didn’t know what happened..
In the next few days, Class 2’s life returned to tranquility.
As for Zhang Tie, he had already finished the operation on his body.
However, due to the severe cerebral hemorrhage, his consciousness was still in a state of distraction. According to the doctor, with the ‘fluctuating’ treatment of modern medical treatment, he could wake up completely. At most, it would take him a longer time.
Chen Yu and the other two then became reassured and continued their cultivation.
Chen Yu didn’t choose to lend out the 500 credits that he had gained from completing the A-Rank task.
Because they didn’t have a safety officer, they were not suitable to accept the task. If he left these credits, it would be enough for them to squander until Zhang Tie woke up.
After a few days, it was September 15th.
A broadcast suddenly sounded on the playground of Beijing University.
“Attention, Year 1 Elite Class 2.”
“Attention, Year 1 Elite Class 2.”
“Please reach the sixth floor of the teaching center in ten minutes.”
“I repeat, attention, Year 1 Elite Class 2…”
In the dormitory, Chen Yu, who was playing the vibrato and cultivating his IQ, immediately woke up. He opened the window and stuck his head out to listen carefully.
After confirming that the broadcast was for their Class 2, he quickly picked up his phone and opened WeChat.
Ding ding ding ding…
Instantly, an overwhelming number of notifications came through the phone receiver.
Chen Yu ignored these missed messages and directly opened the WeChat group of class two, his thumbs flying.
[Chen Yu: what happened? The school actually used the broadcast to look for us? ]
[Bahuang Yao: we couldn’t find it without the broadcast. ]
[Chen Yu: What’s wrong?]
[Bahuang Yao: the school called you and sent you WeChat, but you didn’t reply. ]
[Chen Yu: Am I not cultivating? I was afraid of being disturbed, so I switched on my airplane mode and WeChat. Why didn’t you look for me?]
[Bahuang Yao: I came, but there’s no one in your room. ]
[Chen Yu: Bullshit! How could I not have been in my room… Oh, I didn’t open it at that time. It’s fine then.]
[Bahuang Yao: Why didn’t you turn it on?]
[Chen Yu: I thought it was from the Student Union, so I couldn’t pretend anymore.]
[Bahuang Yao: …]
[Bahuang Yao: Come quickly, I’m at the teaching center right now. Many school leaders are waiting for you two.]
[Chen Yu: Us? So Duan Ye couldn’t be found either?]
[Bahuang Yao: Yes.]
[Chen Yu: make a call! ]
[Bahuang Yao: Didn’t he lose his phone?]
Chen Yu: “…”
Putting down his phone, he washed up briefly, changed his clothes, and left the dormitory building.
He hurried to the teaching office and went up to the sixth floor. Before he entered the reception room, he heard angry curses coming from inside.
“I’ve been doing education for more than ten years. There are many students and leaders. But I’ve never seen a group of leaders and students. This is weird!”
“Gulp.”
Chen Yu scratched his ear and swallowed his saliva before rushing into the house.
He saw Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao standing obediently in the middle of the living room.
And around them were more than a dozen unfriendly school leaders.
“F*ck! Duan Ye!” Chen Yu jumped to Duan Ye’s side and scolded him. “How long have you lost your phone? You still don’t know how to buy it? Why did you have to make the school call you over the loudspeaker? You have quite a big wrist, don’t you?”
Duan Ye: “…You have a phone, but it’s no different from not having one.”
“Still talking back?” Chen Yu was furious. “Quick, apologize to the leaders.”
“There’s no need.”
Behind the conference table, an extremely fat middle-aged man stood up. His gaze was sharp. “Your f*cking name is Chen Yu…”
