Global Awakening: Only I Know Future Information-Chapter 87 - 54: The Privilege of the Strong—Merely Some Wind and Frost

Chapter 87: Chapter 54: The Privilege of the Strong—Merely Some Wind and Frost

Now, the defensive systems of Chang’an City are not yet fully formed, and if mutant beasts were to cause a disturbance, the pressure would be immense.

If such a powerful individual were to join and be willing to lend a hand.

It would undoubtedly improve the situation significantly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded.

He was aware of the situation but said nothing, waiting for what would come next.

"Therefore, I hope Mr. Lu can collaborate with our Zhen Dan Academy. If a beast tide occurs, you can appropriately take action. Of course, we will also demonstrate our sincerity," Dean Zheng mused as he continued.

"The Longevity Gene and Wu Zhou Group, the controllers behind the scenes, all belong to descendants of certain ancient families with special bloodlines. Their potential is gradually being aroused."

"I believe this might become a trouble for Mr. Lu in the future, but I represent Zhen Dan Academy and can assure you."

"No matter the time, you will have our support at your back."

Dean Zheng’s tone was truly sincere.

He recognized Lu Yuan’s power but didn’t think the other could single-handedly withstand both major forces.

After all, he was well aware of the deep heritage of the Wang Family and Zhou Family, with some inheritances left by ancestors.

Especially some individuals whose bloodlines have directly regressed, destined to become powerful figures in the future.

Hence, Dean Zheng made his stance clear.

Informing that Zhen Dan Academy chooses to support.

His attitude, to a certain extent, could be considered as representing the official stance.

"I understand everything Dean Zheng said."

Lu Yuan simply smiled, his expression unchanged: "However wealthy the Foundation of the Zhou Family and Wang Family may be, to me, it’s merely a bit of wind and frost."

Indeed, these two forces are very mysterious, and with time, as mutations continue, they will reveal their true fangs.

But he is no longer the person he once was; he has enough strength to face everything on his own.

This time, it was Dean Zheng’s turn to be shocked.

Merely wind and frost?

Is his tone too bold?

Yes!

No one in the country dares to say such words.

But he could see, Lu Yuan was quite confident, not putting on an act.

For a moment, Dean Zheng had to reassess Lu Yuan, perhaps the other had even greater confidence.

But where does it come from?

He did not know.

Nor did he want to probe further, as it would be quite intrusive.

After interacting with Lu Yuan, Dean Zheng already had a sense of his personality: steadfast and strong.

Though when faced with goodwill, he doesn’t put on airs. In short, if someone gives an inch, he gives a mile.

With this in mind.

Dean Zheng smiled and did not respond to those words, continuing: "Of course, to demonstrate Zhen Dan Academy’s sincerity, we have also prepared a few things for Mr. Lu."

With that, he clapped his hands.

Since it’s a collaboration.

Some things are essential and preparations had been made.

Soon after.

Zhu Qingyu appeared carrying a delicate box.

She walked to Lu Yuan, her expression odd, and then opened the box.

Lu Yuan was initially indifferent.

But soon.

The box emitted a glowing light and an essence of powerful energy that somewhat surprised him.

Inside the box was a Spirit Fruit, the size of a fist.

It was entirely red with a mysterious pattern, somewhat remarkable.

The glow from earlier emanated from this Spirit Fruit.

"This was obtained by our Zhen Dan Academy from a famous mountain, named Hidden Dragon Red Fruit, nurtured by the Earth Core Dragon Vein, extremely rare. If Mr. Lu doesn’t mind, you can take it," Dean Zheng said at the right moment, with a hint of a smile and a touch of pain in his eyes.

For the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit, Zhen Dan Academy surely paid a price.

Only three were picked in total.

It belongs to the Divine Artifact Level among the Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

Now sought after, intended for a promising student in the future.

But upon consideration, if collaboration with Lu Yuan can be achieved, having him take action when Chang’an City faces a beast tide wouldn’t be a loss.

In Dean Zheng’s eyes.

The other is someone with potential even greater than the North Emperor.

"Indeed it’s the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit."

Lu Yuan looked at the Spirit Fruit before him and immediately recognized it.

This, he had been aware of in a past life, nurtured by the Earth Core Dragon Vein.

In terms of value, surpasses the Nine-leaf Golden Rhyme considerably. Consuming it could make one an Awakened, even embed a Dragon Vein within, offering limitless potential and certainly sparking fierce competition among major forces.

Even for him now, it’s quite useful.

The Ancestral Dragon Breathing Technique.

Focuses on absorbing the veins between heaven and earth, and consuming this Hidden Dragon Red Fruit will further enhance its effects.

It might even open up a second or third Grotto Heaven at once, transforming into a True God.

He didn’t expect Zhen Dan Academy would go so far to recruit him, bringing out their treasured resources.

Yet after brief contemplation, Lu Yuan still shook his head: "I am someone who prefers freedom, not being bound."

Taking something represents agreeing to collaborate, perhaps no loss, but it necessitates some action, something he isn’t willing to be commanded to do, so even though tempted.

Across from him, Zhu Qingyu was momentarily stunned by those words.

This is the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit.

The other hesitated little and directly refused...

Notably, her senior, the North Emperor, had long desired this item.

Dean Zheng was also somewhat taken aback, but immediately displayed a smile: "Rest assured Mr. Lu, gifting this fruit carries no hidden agenda, purely because Zhen Dan Academy cherishes talent, acknowledging future troubles Mr. Lu might face."

"Yet with the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit, the path to evolution might progress more smoothly, thus, please accept it."

Having said this, he made a discreet gesture to Zhu Qingyu.

She understood immediately.

Giving a sweet smile.

She promptly closed the box, handing it to Lu Yuan, then moved behind Dean Zheng.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan was momentarily surprised, a mysterious smile emerging: "No hidden agenda, Dean Zheng, do you truly mean this?"

"Truly! Absolutely true, words anchored in honor!"

Dean Zheng expressed righteous sincerity without hesitation.

Like he’d just stated.

It’s purely for cherishing talent.

But Zhu Qingyu clearly saw her dean’s hands trembling.

"Alright."

Lu Yuan stood up, accepting with the thought of not leaving empty-handed, nodded and smiled: "Then I appreciate Dean Zheng’s kind gesture."

"No problem, no problem," Dean Zheng replied: "By the way, Mr. Lu, if you don’t have a residence in the city, you can temporarily stay at the academy, and I will arrange everything for you."

"Dean Zheng, you are a good man."

Lu Yuan pondered it, originally planning to take some profit from the Longevity Gene and leave.

But with the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit now, he intended to find a place to consume it before heading off.

Unexpectedly, Dean Zheng had everything planned.

Then.

He looked at him and said: "Dean Zheng, you are a good man."

"It’s nothing, nothing,"

Dean Zheng waved his hand, then called someone to lead Lu Yuan to the temporary residence.

After finishing all this, watching the Hidden Dragon Red Fruit being taken away, he felt a slight dizziness and said, "Qingyu, help... help me."
