Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 388: As long as you know

Guan Xiaolin was initially startled, then her beautiful but pale face was filled with astonishment.

At that moment, her mind was filled with countless shameful possibilities, and she was prepared to accept them.

But she never expected that the order Chen Fan gave her would be to get admitted to Tsinghua University!

Su Qingyan couldn’t help but giggle.

Chen Fan, however, was entirely serious as he stared at Guan Xiaolin and said, "You have evil intentions and lack education. It seems like you didn’t study well during your school years. Even though you graduated many years ago, I think it’s necessary for you to go back and relearn everything."

"So from now on, you better study the cultural knowledge diligently, register for the adult college entrance examination, and keep trying until you get into Tsinghua."

"If you can do it, I will return your thirty years of life when the time comes, but if you can’t, you won’t need to live those thirty years in this world either."

Guan Xiaolin wore an expression as if she had eaten feces; she thought being Chen Fan’s slave would mean losing her dignity, being toyed with and tormented. Who would have thought that Chen Fan would actually ask her to apply for Tsinghua!

To know that this is one of the best universities in the country where countless people fail to get admitted even after great effort.

And back when she was in school, relying on her family’s deep connections, she thought she wouldn’t need a good education for her future development, so she just played around and never took her studies seriously.

If she wanted to get into Tsinghua, she would probably have to put in ten or a hundred times more effort than others.

With this in mind, she actually wished Chen Fan would play with her, humiliate her instead.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t defy the master’s command, so she could only nod obediently, "Yes, Master."

Once everything was settled, Guan Xiaotian led the Guan Family away, and Su Qingyan found an excuse to send the astonished Zhou Hao and his companions away too.

Mu Tianxiong came to Chen Fan with a solemn expression, saying, "Chen Fan, it’s Qingyan’s honor that you have taken a liking to her!"

After today, with the Jiang Family and Guan Family’s support, the Mu Family was on the verge of becoming one of the top respected families in the Capital. Mu Tianxiong understood that all this was brought about by Chen Fan, and he was naturally filled with gratitude.

Su Qingyan immediately looked displeased and said, "Grandfather, what do you mean by that? Clearly, it’s his honor that I’ve taken a liking to him."

Mu Tianxiong quickly apologized with a smile, "Yes, yes, I misspoke."

"Alright, I still have some matters to deal with for the future, so I won’t disturb you two any longer."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Su Qingyan stared at Chen Fan, her eyes brimming with joy, sizing him up repeatedly, seeming very satisfied with his current appearance.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable under her gaze, Chen Fan said, "Why are you staring at me so much? It’s not like you’ve never seen me before."

Su Qingyan said, "I never imagined you could become this handsome."

Chen Fan smiled slightly, wrapped his arms around Su Qingyan’s waist, and said, "Who would have thought you’d be so shallow."

Su Qingyan, a bit shyly, said, "Everyone has a love for beauty, and I’m naturally very happy that you’ve become so handsome."

Chen Fan didn’t say anything more, as he quite liked the way he looked now as well.

However, he was someone who preferred to keep a low profile and didn’t like to attract attention. In the future, when going out, he would still use the Illusion Technique to revert to his original appearance to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"I just remembered there’s some unfinished business, I need to go back to my room for a bit."

Chen Fan returned to his room and walked over to the desk, where he picked up a jade box, opened it, and found that it still contained some remnants of the Earth Vein.

Although Chen Fan had just condensed nine Golden Cores, the Earth Vein was powerful enough that even after nourishing the nine Golden Cores, there was still a substantial amount of essence left.

"The remaining part of the Earth Vein is almost equivalent to the one beneath the Hillside Villa, so I could find a way to make use of it."

He considered setting up a Five Elements Fusion Spirit Formation in the Mu Mansion as well, which would make cultivation much more convenient for both him and Su Qingyan, allowing Lu Jinyuan to avoid running back to Jiang City to fetch Innate Spiritual Liquid for producing Life Spiritual Liquid.

"To refine the Five Elements Fusion Spirit Formation, I need treasures of the Heaven and Earth Treasures caliber to reinforce it. I’ve only harvested part of the Cold Jade Marrow, and it will take many years for new growth. It seems I can’t rely on that, and will need to find another treasure that can support the Formation Core."

Just then Little Ling’s voice rang in Chen Fan’s ears, "Can I absorb the remaining Earth Vein?"

Chen Fan thought for a moment and said, "Earth Vein is hard to come by, and I still have use for the remaining part, so I can’t give it to you for now. By the way, do you have any top-notch jade or stone treasures? Lend me one to refine the Formation, and I promise to find enough Heaven and Earth Spirit Objects to repay you later."

If Little Ling seemed a bit upset saying, "I don’t have any!"

Chen Fan, feeling helpless, thought to himself that Artifact Spirits really could have their own temperaments, but refining the Five Elements Fusion Spirit Formation was his top priority, so even if Little Ling was unhappy, he couldn’t give the remaining Earth Vein for her to absorb.

He closed the jade box, and to prevent Little Ling from secretly absorbing the Earth Vein, he didn’t place the box inside the Heavenly Creation Pearl, but instead locked it in a drawer and placed a seal on it.

"Now that I’ve successfully broken through to the Golden Core Realm, even condensing nine Golden Cores, I can severely injure a third-grade Divine Realm practitioner like the Guan Family patriarch from a distance, so dealing with those from the Ghost Witch Sect should also be within reach."

"It seems it’s time to leave the Capital for a bit to take care of the Ghost Witch Sect once and for all. I should also look for treasures to refine the Five Elements Fusion Spirit Formation, and, of course, find something for Little Ling to absorb."

Thinking this, Chen Fan left the room to find Su Qingyan.

At dinner, Mu Qingqing stared at Chen Fan, who had undergone a significant change in appearance, with her big eyes wide open like copper bells.

"Handsome guy, are you... really my brother-in-law?"

Su Qingyan rolled her eyes at her, "Who else could your brother-in-law be?"

Mu Qingqing suddenly said seriously, "Cousin, we can’t talk nonsense. You two aren’t married yet, so he’s not technically my brother-in-law. And now that he’s become so handsome, I have to say I’m really tempted. How about we compete for him fairly?"

Su Qingyan gave Mu Qingqing a knock on the head, "Looking for a spanking, are you?"

Mu Qingqing quickly withdrew her neck and dared not speak further, though the look she gave Chen Fan as she left still held a hint of desire.

Ten o’clock at night.

Chen Fan returned to his room, planning to sit down and cultivate to stabilize his foundation.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Su Qingyan ran inside.

Chen Fan asked with confusion, "Qingyan, it’s so late, aren’t you going to sleep?"

Su Qingyan came over to Chen Fan, eyeing him and muttering, "You really look so handsome now, it’s endlessly captivating. I’m practically drooling over you."

Chen Fan’s face suddenly became vigilant, "So what you’re saying is..."

Su Qingyan chuckled mischievously, pushed Chen Fan down onto the bed, and said, "As long as you know..."
