Chapter 13 Internship Assessment
"Oh, only twenty..."
Zhang Chulan took a sip of the cola he had just ordered and thought to himself, "Then what are you bragging about?"
"puff--"
But then he realized, "Wait! You said you're 1020 years old? You must be kidding!"
"I have no reason to lie to you. Once you truly enter the world of supernatural beings, you will naturally know me. To be honest... I'm quite famous now." Fu Xuan smiled.
He then began to recount events from a thousand years ago.
"A thousand years ago, I was falsely accused of being a demon. The three religions led the martial arts world to attack me and sealed me in a deep valley of the Qinling Mountains. It was during the time when your grandfather and his sworn brothers broke into the sealed place and obtained my fortune that they created these thirteen 'miraculous skills'."
"this……"
Zhang Chulan subconsciously leaned to the side, unsure whether to believe it or not. If this person was indeed a "demon" who was suppressed and sealed away a thousand years ago, then the so-called "defilement" might be a lie.
But he could sense the sincerity in the other person's words.
Although this could also be an act.
However, from the current perspective, everyone covets what he has, yet the other party has specifically helped him and pointed it out. Even if they have ulterior motives, at least they won't harm him right now...
Thinking this way, he gradually relaxed.
Let's believe it for now.
"How did you break free of the seal?"
"It's very simple. I have the means to break the seal. Once my body is repaired and my consciousness is restored, I will be able to leave."
"When did you wake up?"
"A little over a week ago."
"You adapted so quickly?!"
"Nothing in this world can escape my eyes. Just like I can tell you're in danger at a glance. I can see through everything, so I can adapt quickly... It's not surprising."
Fu Xuan looked at him: "Well then, now that I've finished talking about my business, it's your turn. You're quite the hot commodity now, and you've practically stepped into the world of supernatural beings. What are your plans for the future?"
"Should we continue to pretend to be ordinary, keep our eyes covered, or...?"
"Things have come to this, and I probably can't go back to a normal life anymore. Sigh!"
Zhang Chulan sighed and lowered his head in deep thought. At this moment, he felt lost and didn't know what to do.
"If you don't have any particular ideas, you can follow me for now, and leave whenever you find your own path."
"Um?"
Upon hearing Fu Xuan's suggestion, Zhang Chulan raised his head and gave him a deep look: "This is your purpose... to get me to follow you?"
"I suppose so. You have good talent and are a valuable asset."
"Oh? What about the compensation..."
"You have potential and talent, but it's not enough yet. The reason you were able to defeat these people today is because they were too weak, but I can guide you..."
"If you don't believe me, I can show you the world and show you what it means to be 'there are always people better than you'."
Fu Xuan smiled slightly: "Of course, I'll also guarantee you your 'salary.' You're currently in your internship period, so it'll be ten thousand a month... How about that?"
Prior to this, he had raided several gambling dens and drug trafficking operations, seizing a considerable amount of money, including several million in cash.
Zhang Chulan was taken aback upon hearing this.
"Ten thousand?!"
You know, the highest salary he can get after graduating from his current civil engineering program is around this amount...
This is just an internship!
Having witnessed the "real world" and been repeatedly harassed, it was clear he couldn't continue his studies, so he considered it for a while...
"Okay! I'll do it!"
"So, boss, what's our next step?"
It has to be said that Zhang Chulan's adaptability is truly strong, and he can switch roles very quickly. He immediately put on the act of being a lackey and started massaging the "boss's" legs.
"Next... a major event is about to begin. The 'Luo Tian Grand Ceremony' at Longhu Mountain is about to commence. It's a grand event held once every five years in the world of supernatural beings, where the younger generation will exchange skills and techniques. I want you to participate and win the championship!"
"Longhu Mountain?"
Zhang Chulan's eyes flickered: "So it's my grandfather's sect?"
"That's right. The current Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion is your grandfather's senior brother, and he is also the most outstanding in the world. If you want to know about your grandfather, you can ask him."
In Fu Xuan's view, the best way to make this kid grow up quickly is to throw him into this vortex and even tell the world about the "Qi Body Source Flow" on him.
As for what will happen then...
The more chaotic, the better.
"Consider this a test for you."
"good!"
Thus, Fu Xuan's goal was achieved; with Zhang Chulan as a pawn, the subsequent strategy became simple.
"Then go back to your dorm and pack your things. I'll help you get a leave of absence. You finally got into university, don't waste it."
……
……
the next morning.
"Well……"
When Xu San awoke from his coma, he found himself lying on a hospital bed in the medical ward: "What... happened to me?"
"Xu San, you're awake?"
Feng Baobao, who was lying on the edge of the bed, started to move.
Just then, the ward door was pushed open, and Xu Si, with his curly hair, walked in: "Hey, Xu San'er, you're awake?"
"Here, have some breakfast!"
Xu San took the porridge Xu Si handed him and drank a couple of mouthfuls. Once his chapped lips had moistened a bit, Xu Si asked, "What happened last night? How come everyone was wiped out?"
"That kid's that good?"
"That's amazing!"
Xu San recalled, "Zhang Chulan not only knows the 'Golden Light Mantra' and 'Thunder Technique,' but their power is also extraordinary. Even Xia He's methods are ineffective against him, which is very strange."
"It's that ability to 'absorb Qi'..."
Feng Baobao then interjected: "He can 'eat' other people's Qi and break their methods. If too much Qi is lost, it can even make people paralyzed."
"So, he used that 'eating qi' method to break Xia He's ability?" Xu Si stroked his chin. "That's interesting..."
"No, I have to go find him. He's in too much danger right now!" Xu Sanze got up.
"Alright, stop wasting your time."
Xu Si pushed him back down and said, "That kid didn't go back to school. He must be missing. I checked the surveillance footage in the area, but I found nothing."
"What? Zhang Chulan ran away!" Xu San was stunned.
Xu Si shrugged: "There was nothing we could do. First, his grandfather's grave was dug up, and he was almost buried alive by Bao Bao. Then we ran into Quanxing, who seemed to be a gang. Anyone with a sane brain... would have run!"
"Then let's go find it right away!"
This kid slipped away from me, and I'm to blame. To prevent him from causing trouble, Xu San decided to take immediate action.
"Um?!"
thump!
But as soon as he rolled off the bed, his body suddenly went limp and he collapsed to the ground. Only then did he realize that his body was completely empty, as if all his vital energy had been drained.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. You were like this when I found you last night. You must have overexerted yourself and need time to recover."
Xu Si then helped him onto the bed.
"That's fine. You've been working non-stop lately and haven't slept much. We'll take care of Zhang Chulan's matter..."
"Get some rest."
