Chapter 43 Fire Bone
Chapter 43 Fire Bone
Everyone looked over, only to find that the old man from Yinshan was no longer the arrogant and domineering figure he once was; he was now utterly pathetic.
This puzzled everyone. What exactly happened during the time they were fleeing the cultivation technique auction that made the Old Man of Yinshan flee as if his life depended on it?
"What happened? The Old Man of Yinshan was defeated?"
"Wow, the Xiao family probably doesn't have any strong individuals in Jinling who could deal with the Old Man of Yinshan, right?"
"Could it be... that young man?"
"How is that possible? He's so young, he could never be a match for the Old Man of Yinshan."
Some speculated that Qin Chuan might have defeated the Old Man of Yinshan, but this was quickly dismissed because Qin Chuan was simply too young. Even with extraordinary martial arts talent, someone his age couldn't possibly challenge the Old Man of Yinshan.
While everyone was still puzzled, Qin Chuan came out not long after, looking completely unharmed, as if nothing had happened.
This surprised everyone even more. When they fled the auction, the Old Man of Yinshan was determined to kill Qin Chuan, but now he was completely unharmed.
"Ah, Wang Shu, he's not dead," Yang Siyi exclaimed in surprise.
While Shen Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief, she was still filled with doubt and curiosity: how did Qin Chuan survive this auction?
"Qin Chuan!"
Su Yingxia rushed over, tears streaming down her face: "I thought something was wrong with you."
Qin Chuan ruffled her hair and chuckled, "A mere old man from Yinshan can't kill me."
To outsiders, this sounded pretentious, because everyone believed that the defeat of the Old Man of Yinshan had absolutely nothing to do with Qin Chuan.
But we have no way of knowing right now, so we can't exactly go and ask Miss Xiao, can we?
Shen Wangshu originally wanted to go up and ask some questions, but Qin Chuan left quickly without even glancing at her, which made her frown.
What happened?
It seems like Qin Chuan has started to show signs of life.
Do you really think that he defeated the Old Man of Yinshan?
Or does he still feel that Su Yingxia is so concerned, and that she will stop pursuing him after Su Yingxia comes along?
A series of thoughts surfaced in Shen Wangshu's mind, and she was still somewhat dissatisfied with Qin Chuan's attitude.
However, she couldn't possibly chase after him to ask anything; that would make her seem cheap.
"This is incredible luck!" Wu Rong spat. "I suspect the Xiao family must have some mysterious expert protecting them, otherwise the Old Man of Yinshan couldn't have lost."
This is the second time.
Last time, the Alliance Guard's Sheriff Lu Tianxing appeared in time and killed the deputy sheriff; otherwise, Qin Chuan would have been dead without a doubt.
In the end, he survived again.
Is it that hard to kill?
Shen Wangshu and the others found Wu Rong's analysis very reasonable, and thought it was the only explanation.
"Is it possible that Qin Chuan defeated the Old Man of Yinshan himself?" Su Yingxia offered another guess.
Shen Wangshu and Yang Siyi both looked at Su Yingxia with strange expressions.
"Yingxia, you haven't fallen for him, have you?" Shen Wangshu asked, her face full of disbelief.
"No...no." Su Yingxia's pretty face flushed slightly.
"Qin Chuan defeated the Old Man of Yinshan?" Wu Rong answered decisively, "Absolutely impossible."
"Why?" Su Yingxia asked, somewhat unconvinced.
"Do you believe him or do you believe I am Qin Shi Huang?" Wu Rong snorted, extremely displeased. It seemed that Qin Chuan had captured Su Yingxia's heart.
Why should I?
The thought of this kid running around everywhere, even being a VIP guest of the Xiao family's eldest daughter, made Wu Rong want to stomp him to death.
I'll find a chance to teach him a lesson he won't forget!
After returning home, Qin Chuan stayed in his dormitory for a whole week, without even leaving the room, dedicating himself to refining the bone.
In a week, he also refined the bone into a magical artifact and renamed it Fire Bone.
Because its attribute is fire, which is also a commonly used attribute among many cultivators, such as fire talismans.
"Damn, Qin, you're amazing! You're either like a dragon that never appears, or you stay in your dorm for a whole week without leaving." Lin Xian was astonished by Qin Chuan's lifestyle.
"Old Qin, are you really not planning to go to class?" Cao Junli looked at Qin Chuan with envy in his eyes.
Qin Chuan was also a little confused by Cao Junli's gaze, but considering that he had been at school for almost a month and hadn't even been to a classroom, it was indeed a bit inappropriate. After thinking about it, he figured he had just finished refining a magic weapon and didn't have much to do, so he decided to go to the classroom.
in the afternoon.
In a classroom at the business school.
"Have you heard? There's a new student in our class who hasn't been here for two and a half years. He just showed up recently, but he hasn't stepped into a classroom once."
"No way, who is it that's so capricious?"
"I think his name is Qin Chuan, and he's from the same dorm as Cao Junli."
"..."
This matter has been frequently discussed in the class lately.
Now that Qin Chuan has registered at the school and moved into the dormitory, someone in his class will surely know about him very soon.
Cao Junli, in particular, often boasted about his mysterious roommate, which aroused the curiosity of many people.
How willful must someone be to consistently skip class?
"Hehe, I don't think it's social anxiety, or maybe a mental illness, or even depression?" a rather handsome guy said with a chuckle.
Judging from his clothes, he comes from a very wealthy family. He is also very handsome and popular in this business school.
However, such men are usually quite promiscuous, but the more so, the more they win the hearts of girls.
"I think what Tan Ming said is quite possible. Even if it's not those things, I guess he's just too ugly to show his face in public." Another boy chimed in.
This argument has actually gained a lot of acceptance; otherwise, why wouldn't they come to the classroom?
Even though he had already registered at the school, it would be hard for anyone to believe there wasn't something wrong with him.
Soon, Cao Junli and his group arrived. There were four of them in total, usually three, but Qin Chuan came today.
When Qin Chuan entered the classroom, all eyes were on him.
"Wow, so handsome!" one of the girls exclaimed.
An uproar immediately erupted.
Before Qin Chuan came to the classroom, many people thought he might have psychological problems, or be depressed, or be ugly.
Neither of them were the case, and he was also very handsome and sunny, even more handsome than Tan Ming, the class heartthrob.
This made many girls' eyes sparkle.
Cao Junli looked on with envy again: "This damn charm, isn't this exactly what I want?"
