Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears

Chapter 148: Chapter 147: First Stop on Hong Kong Island! Hong Kong Island University

HISS—!

A chorus of sharp gasps filled the plane’s cabin.

Everyone was stunned by the news.

It was one thing for the Contracted Beast’s combat power to be off the charts, but for the Master’s to be so damn overpowered as well?!

Just what kind of divine duo was this?!

Li Wenbo looked at their awestruck, unsophisticated expressions, smiled with satisfaction, and dropped another bombshell:

“I heard my family’s elders discussing it in private. Based on the potential this pair has shown, their future is at least Emperor Level, and they might even have a shot at the Emperor Realm!”

“And I’m not exaggerating—even the few Great Emperors we have in the Great Xia Federation right now couldn’t pull off such ridiculous Cross-Level Combat when they were young!”

“In other words, as long as this person doesn’t fall along the way or suffer a backlash from their own Contracted Beast, their future… could be reaching the peak of the Emperor Realm, or even surpassing it!”

The entire cabin instantly fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone was so shocked by his words that their minds went blank, unable to even think.

Surpassing the Emperor Realm?

What a terrifying evaluation!

Li Wenbo continued, “That’s why, back in the Capital City, countless big shots are secretly investigating this duo’s true identity. They all want to get on their good side early!”

Everyone listened, dumbfounded.

Since Li Wenbo was being so specific, he couldn’t possibly be making it all up to fool them, right?

Could such a heaven-defying duo really exist in the world?

“That’s insane…”

Huang Mao’s face was filled with shock. He couldn’t help but say, “With that kind of potential… you could call them unprecedented, right?”

“Sigh… If only I could get to know that mushroom’s Master!”

Not just him; the same thought couldn’t help but pop into everyone’s minds.

’If we could befriend a peerless prodigy of that caliber, the big shots in our families would surely think more highly of us, right?’

But… it was just a thought.

They were self-aware enough to know that as useless scions, even ordinary geniuses from Jing University looked down on them. How could they possibly befriend a peerless talent who was almost guaranteed to reach the Emperor Realm in the future?

“I bet that mushroom’s Master is probably the child of a top family from the Capital City, or maybe Zhonghai or Hong Kong Island—one of the super-cities!” someone began to speculate.

Huang Mao nodded in agreement. “Definitely! Only places like that could possibly produce such a heaven-defying genius! It’s definitely not someone from one of those inland provinces. They don’t have the resources!”

“That’s right.” Li Bowen also nodded with great certainty. “Those backwater places simply don’t have the right soil to nurture such a prodigy!”

Gu Yuexi: “…”

Chu Sheng: “…”

…

「Two hours later.」

With a slight jolt, the incredibly luxurious private jet landed smoothly on the runway of the Hong Kong Island International Airport.

The cabin door opened, and a wave of hot, humid air carrying the scent of the ocean washed over them.

“We’re finally here!” Huang Mao stretched, his face alight with excitement. “Let’s go, brothers! Tonight, we’re not leaving Lan Gui Fang until we’re drunk!”

“Yeah!”

The group cheered and filed out of the plane, unable to wait.

Outside the airport, a row of top-tier sports cars, which had clearly been waiting for them, instantly captured everyone’s attention.

Ferraris, Lamborghinis, McLarens… each one was worth a fortune.

Li Wenbo and the others expertly hopped into their respective cars. Accompanied by the deafening roar of engines, they sped off.

And Gu Yuexi was left standing all alone at the airport entrance, like a forgotten piece of luggage.

She watched the sports cars disappear into the traffic, her cool and detached face showing no hint of emotion.

’This is fine.’

’Being with this group of useless idiots is just a waste of time.’

She didn’t linger and hailed a taxi.

“Where to, pretty lady?” The driver, a friendly middle-aged man, asked in authentic Cantonese.

“Hong Kong University, thank you,” Gu Yuexi replied, also in Cantonese.

A flash of surprise crossed the driver’s eyes. He clearly hadn’t expected a young lady who looked like she was from the mainland to speak such perfect Cantonese.

He smiled and nodded, then stepped on the gas, and the taxi merged into the bustling traffic.

Hong Kong Island University was the first stop Gu Yuexi had decided on for this trip.

According to her memories from her previous life, the Array Academy at Hong Kong University held a supreme Mental Power treasure called the “Soul Sea Dao Seal.”

It wasn’t a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure, so it couldn’t be devoured and absorbed.

Instead, it was an extremely special “Talisman” from a Calamity Level Secret Realm, and its Grade was Celestial Tier!

Once activated with Mental Power, this Talisman would brand itself directly onto the activator’s soul.

After that, the speed of one’s Spiritual Cultivation would skyrocket by several times, or even dozens of times!!

’This kind of one-time-use treasure that directly affects the Soul Origin is something that mosquito can never absorb!’

’This… this is a fortuitous encounter meant for me, Gu Yuexi, alone!’

Meanwhile, Chu Sheng, hidden in her hair, was curiously observing the legendary “city of sin” through the car window.

Skyscrapers soared into the clouds, packed as densely as a steel forest. The streets teemed with crowds, a mix of people of all skin colors, and his ears were filled with Cantonese and English that he couldn’t understand at all…

’This doesn’t look like a city of sin at all! It’s a full-blown international metropolis! It actually seems several times more prosperous than Du Nan!’

However…

Chu Sheng used his Mental Power to scan the passersby and found that most of them had very little Qi Blood fluctuation. Instead, their Mental Power auras were incredibly strong, one after another.

All sorts of Arrays were also visible everywhere along the roads.

’The paradise of Spiritual Cultivators… That title is spot on,’ Chu Sheng mused silently.

「Half an hour later.」

The taxi stopped in front of the grand gates of Hong Kong Island University.

Gu Yuexi paid the fare and got out of the car.

However, when she looked up and got a clear view of the scene at the entrance, she froze for a moment.

Not far away, a few very familiar Ferraris and Lamborghinis were parked ostentatiously on the side of the road.

Li Wenbo’s group was leaning against the car doors, talking and laughing, seemingly waiting for something.

Gu Yuexi: “…”

’She had assumed that the first thing this bunch of ignorant, hedonistic scions would do upon arriving on Hong Kong Island was to go carousing in the main commercial district. Why would they come to a university?’

’Wasn’t the so-called “academic exchange” just a flimsy excuse they used to get their travel permits?’

’Could it be… they actually want to study?’

’That’s even more ridiculous than a mosquito learning to speak human.’

Just then, Li Wenbo and the others also spotted Gu Yuexi getting out of the taxi.

In that instant, the smiles on the dozen or so faces froze in unison.

“What the fuck?”

Huang Mao rubbed his eyes, his face a mask of disbelief. “What’s going on? How did this woman follow us here?!”

The girl with heavy makeup also looked stunned. “How did she know we were coming here? You’ve got to be kidding me. She’s like a persistent ghost!”

Li Wenbo’s expression turned even darker in an instant.

’Is she a fucking leech?!’

’Weren’t we clear enough on the plane? We obviously wanted to ditch you, so what’s the meaning of you shamelessly tagging along?!’

’Does she really think we’re her free bodyguards and tour guides? A stinking outsider… how can she be so thick-skinned?!’
