Volume 1: The Bridge Man Chapter 42: Gathering of Blood-Cloaked Priests
"Thank you so much this time."
At the hospital, after dinner, Qiao Yao and Lin Xingying found Li Bencheng again.
Before coming, he called and made an appointment with Director Huang from the Admissions Office of Yujing Union University to have tea at a place near the hospital half an hour later.
Director Huang naturally agreed readily and made an appointment to meet there.
Li Bencheng was walking with them under the street lights and had already communicated with them about Qiao Ji's matter.
He deleted Xiao Wang's memory about Qiao Ji's spiritual light value, and the equipment was even easier to deal with. No one could say anything if he worked with an injury, as he was the one who made the decisions in the Supernatural Department.
"As it should be, Qiao Ji's talent is too extraordinary, but you also have to consider the issue of sea water."
The seawater flooded the spiritual isolation room, and people in the hospital were discussing what kind of supernatural power could bring the seawater.
If it is just a matter of spatial ability, the distance is indeed too far. Tongcheng is more than a thousand kilometers away from the nearest coastline.
"The more you talk about this kind of thing, the more mistakes you will make. Don't worry, I've already thought about it." Qiao Yao already had a plan.
"Well, it's almost time, you guys go ahead, don't worry about me, I won't reveal anything."
"Thank you so much, Junior Brother."
…
Qiao Yao made an appointment at a nearby teahouse. When they arrived, Xue Youxian and Director Huang were already waiting there.
"You are Qiao Ji's father, right? We spoke on the phone. I am Huang Shichuan, the director of the admissions office of Yujing Union University."
Director Huang was very enthusiastic. After all, this was the father of a person with space abilities, and this person with space abilities was very unusual.
Apart from anything else, the fact that a large amount of seawater can be produced in Tongcheng, an inland city, is surprising enough and enough to make people think.
"Hello." Qiao Yao was serious, and Lin Xingying next to him just smiled and nodded.
"This is President Xue Youxian of Yujing Union University."
This person is of great importance. He is the president of a top domestic university and his administrative level is much higher than those two researchers.
It's pressure.
But for the sake of my son, I still have to face it.
"Hello, Principal Xue. I didn't expect that Qiao Ji's schooling would alarm you."
"I'm ashamed to say that the school hasn't recruited anyone with space abilities for several years. I had to go there in person after hearing the news."
Xue Youxian looked very easy to talk to, and then said, "I wonder what you two think about having Qiao Ji transfer to the Lianda High School."
"In fact, it's also good to transfer to Yujing, because we are now seconded to Yujing for work reasons."
"oh?"
Upon hearing the news, Xue Youxian and Huang Shichuan were both surprised.
This is a good thing. If both parents go, isn’t it natural for the children to go with them?
"What do you two do for a living?"
"We are all engaged in research, and we are currently working on research on supernatural materials."
That has something to do with them. Yujing Union University is a model and iconic comprehensive university established to build the country's own supernatural power system. The school's majors cover all aspects related to supernatural powers.
"Where do you two work in Yujing now?"
Maybe we can start with work, then Qiao Ji won't be able to escape.
"Sorry." Qiao Yao suddenly apologized.
"Our work unit and content need to be kept confidential for the time being."
Xue Youxian didn't expect to get such an answer.
Confidential unit?
"So, regarding Qiao Ji's schooling, let's wait for a while until we have arranged our work, and then visit him at school."
They stood up, and Director Huang was a little anxious, "Are you leaving now?"
"Yes, I came back this time because of work, so I don't have much time, sorry."
"The matter of Qiao Ji's transfer to another school..."
"After a while, we will take Qiao Ji to Yujing to see what the new school environment is like. After all, transferring schools requires the child to like it."
Your child says you are the one in charge.
But it was not a good time to say this, so Xue Youxian just said "goodbye".
After Qiao Yao and Lin Xingying left, Director Huang still felt strange.
"Principal, is there any other school interfering?"
This is what he fears most.
Xue Youxian smiled and said, "Don't worry, they are just waiting for the right price."
"Waiting for a price?"
"I'm afraid they haven't figured out the problem with Qiao Ji, so they won't rashly agree to our request. Tongcheng is more than 1,600 kilometers away from the sea, and they are insiders."
Since they have the ability, they will definitely try to figure out Qiao Ji’s problem themselves instead of entrusting it to others.
"They do their own research? But the conditions in our school are better, right?" Director Huang said subconsciously.
"In the afternoon, Li Bencheng was unwilling to tell us what Qiao Ji's spiritual light value was, so I looked up the school he graduated from." Xue Youxian has lived long and seen a lot.
He sighed: "The current situation is really because some scum has ruined the atmosphere."
…
In his sleep, Qiao Ji suddenly frowned, and red fluorescent liquid emerged from his body, wrapping around him and turning into a robe, glowing like burning blood.
The shadowy soldiers gathered in an instant, crowded into the bedroom, and surrounded Qiao Ji in the middle.
But they did not move, just stared at Qiao Ji intently.
Qiao Ji was still sleeping and showed no signs of waking up.
In the distant fog, there were six figures burning with blood, approaching from afar.
"I heard that you were ambushed by a junior and lost your physical body? Do you want to come to me and let me comfort you~"
A person who was neither male nor female, sticky and disgusting, and I heard a sound in my ears as if there were earthworms drilling into my ears.
Qiao Ji couldn't see these people clearly. They were all wrapped in a flowing blood robe, with their faces not showing. He was the same, with the Soul-Devouring Blood Robe on.
They stood on the skeleton of some unknown creature, each occupying a rib, separated by a distance.
He didn't know where this place was, or why he suddenly appeared here. He could only wait and see what happened without saying a word.
"Just survive."
A lazy voice sounded from the left, sounding like a little child, and yawned , "With the Jealousy Stone, your lost power can be easily replenished."
"Humph, you actually let your subordinates usurp your power. You are such a loser. Where are you? I am here to kill you. This time I will give you a real death."
A voice full of contempt sounded from the other side.
"You guys are so noisy. You always get together for no reason. Don't you know that this is a critical period for me to make a leap forward? So what if he dies?"
It's a loud voice.
"You think you can make it to the top? You're just a stray dog. Why haven't you died yet?" The contemptuous voice mocked.
"What did you say!"
Buzz——
The collision of the two invisible forces caused ripples on everyone's blood robes. That was a powerful fluctuation of mental power.
The soul face patterns on the blood-stained robe activated, absorbing the dissipated mental energy.
Qiao Ji: ...
Dare not move.jpg
If he was not mistaken, he seemed to have infiltrated the enemy.
These people seemed to be the other six blood-robed high priests of the Original Sin faction in the Jian Gu Society.
