Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 1764: Chapter 1759: The Risk of Exposure

The Divine Ashes Institute harbors no ill will towards Wen Li, this is almost certain.

Something like that just happened, and she became a focus of the Night Watchman’s attention, even a reckless person wouldn’t act so recklessly.

They even specifically chose a rising star in the Supernatural Realm that no one is afraid hasn’t heard of.

In this situation, it seems they’re finally willing to slightly lower their high and mighty stance, and start paying attention to the loose cultivators among the common people.

Moreover, they don’t necessarily need to recruit her into the organization, after all, all Psychic Series are one family.

Just by letting their thoughts open like this, even if they achieve something mutual with Miss Wen, it could slightly mend their reputation with the Night Watchman.

In short, Miss Wen’s opportunity has arrived, although it might not be too significant.

And as someone who has always liked to help others achieve their beauty, how could they casually strip this away?

As for safety concerns, to be honest, in this incident, the fact that Miss Wen survived intact already proves to a considerable extent that she wasn’t particularly targeted.

This is merely routine protection.

Wen Li clearly understood some of this, and at this time proposing the matter of an invitation represented a suggestion of hers—

There’s not much point in continuing to stay here, it would only additionally strain Yuan Shan and her own energy, so why not take this opportunity to visit the Academy, where there are also many experts, so there’s no need to worry too much about safety.

It’s a smart and considerate choice, the only issue is that I seem to be one of those ”experts” over there.

This time it wouldn’t be good to trouble Professor Lanaya for help again.

Someone who was originally a drunk full of passion for life has already been almost plucked bald.

As for the risk of identity revelation?

After all, I’m appearing there under my real name and face, which Wen Li is quite aware of—completely no problem.

The reason for such confidence is not because there are any special methods to hide my identity, but rather because it doesn’t matter if it’s exposed.

Some disguises are meant to be dropped.

...

Just like candidly admitting to Li Weixuan that I’m an Archipelago Assassin, a trivial matter that had been in the works for a while beforehand.

Never expect others to be fools, Wen Li will recognize it at that time, won’t Yuan Shan, who hasn’t seen it yet, have suspicions?

As Cass mentioned before, when a High-level Extraordinary travels outside, it’s normal to use a disguise.

In Shangjing, when a mysterious demigod without any background suddenly appears, won’t Yuan Shan idly speculate during her free time?

If one wishes to have deeper communication with the Night Watchman, and thereby harness more power, ensuring that they ”know every detail” about you is a basic prerequisite.

Moreover, the professor’s identity at the Academy is endorsed by a highly esteemed old chancellor in person, undoubtedly the most suitable for core cultivation.

Now, through unremitting efforts, the reputation at the Academy is almost reaching worship, and the Merit Points are so many they’re about to overflow.

The actions on the Archipelago can be completely classified as righteous deeds.

In this context, what’s the problem with three identities merging into one?

As for those evil beings outside.

Dark Moon Master and Disciple, the Abandonment King, Grimshaw, etc., it’s just the right time to make a clear cut.

With Frostburn, which specializes against Superior Beings, the operation is absolutely not difficult.

In summary, with a just organization like the Night Watchman, how can one not enhance oneself well and then look for opportunities to make connections.

”Alright... then I’ll let Wen Li do as she pleases, before that, I’ll try to help her recover, her exhaustion is also quite severe.”

At this moment, Chief Yuan instantly provided proof for the righteousness of the organization, expressing that they would also not do such a thing as ruining someone’s opportunity.

”Thank you for your hard work.”

Fu Qian casually expressed gratitude on behalf of Wen Li.

”No big deal. Speaking of... how’s your condition?”

Waving her hand, Yuan Shan recalled something, and looked Fu Qian up and down.

”Couldn’t be better.”

Casually adding tea, Fu Qian also solemnly straightened his collar.

...

It seemed that Chief Yuan came over for a casual chat, besides seeking opinions on the invitation, she was a bit worried about extracting some problems from herself before this, and conveniently confirmed it.

Didn’t stay for long, Yuan Shan left indignantly after noticing that the bookstore owner started slacking off and turned the tea into self-service.

And seeing the back of the leader, Fu Qian also silently summed up this exchange.

Not surprising that Chief Yuan had such worries, yesterday my appearance was indeed excessively tragic.

However, she should already be more at ease now, especially knowing that the night shift continues to be held until now.

Once Wen Li leaves later, this conflict can basically be considered concluded.

What follows will be grueling reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance work.

In view of this, the necessity of continuing the bookstore’s operation today seems to be negligible.

Including the fact that Chief Yuan proactively mentioned that I could take a rest for a while.

Unfortunately... at Heaven’s Commencement Institute and the Academy, there are so many projects on our shoulders, the interim leader role is not one that’s easily shouldered.

With a long sigh, Fu Qian washed the tea set used for entertaining guests one by one, packed them up, and after glancing around this hall of knowledge, removed the Messenger.

...

The warehouse was naturally hushed and peaceful, with years passing quietly.

Yet not finding peace within, Fu Qian quickly picked up a special reward for this occasion and returned, then initiated ”Homeward.”

With the chair sent by the Red Moon, running between the Academy bookstore and the other side is much more convenient than before.

Unfortunately, the latter has entered a quiet state again and did not respond to my visit.

Returning to the Half-step Moon, and after glancing at the chair the Red Moon once sat on, Fu Qian grasped the special reward in hand, but did not sit down, instead returned to where he last stood.

And after leaning there for a moment, this unique quiet place had only a few little heads peeking out from behind the rubble, using their hollow eye sockets to glimpse over here, like mice checking if someone had left.

Familiar, almost like acquaintances, it was those Skeleton Messengers that ran errands to bring things to me more than once.

Unfortunately, there seems to be nothing to return to them at the moment.

With a smiling greeting, Fu Qian simultaneously stood up, looking at the umbilical cord in hand that showed no change.

The Red Moon doesn’t seem interested in this thing.

That’s right, returning to the warehouse specifically to pick this up wasn’t to bring it to the Academy for research or the like, but rather to bring it here to let the Red Moon take a look.

Although the umbilical cord related to the Ancient Supremes has mixed suspected powers, upon acquiring it, what Fu Qian thought was whether the Red Moon had an appetite for it.

Unfortunately, taste is something that can’t be forced.

After putting the umbilical cord back in the warehouse and returning home, waving goodbye to the little Messengers startled into distance by my actions, Fu Qian finally sat on the armchair.

In just the blink of an eye, the desolation was gone, in front was a beige tablecloth with a unique pattern.
