First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Ahead, in Su Yun’s line of sight.

The sun was bright, the couple handsome and beautiful.

The pedestrians on the street seemed like a microcosm of humanity, and that man and woman looked like a match made in heaven; even walking through the crowd, their faces drew the eye and became the focal point at a glance.

Nishang walked ahead, Brother Yuwen followed a half step behind.

She smiled, he listened.

For a moment, their radiance made Su Yun feel like a rat in a gutter.

His hand gradually clenched.

An emotion named inferiority quickly crawled into Su Yun’s heart.

At best he could be called delicately handsome, while Yuwen Longyuan was flawless in his looks.The steady gaze, the halted step,

made Nishang and Yuwen Longyuan throw a questioning glance.

When Nishang saw Su Yun staring blankly at her,

a rush of panic and a complex mix of emotions instantly flooded her mind.

She hurriedly quickened her pace and came forward.

Those four words, “Brother Su Yun,” could not be spoken in front of Yuwen Longyuan no matter what.

Fortunately Su Yun spoke first, forcing a smile that hid his embarrassment: “You forgot your things.”

He handed them over.

Nishang reached out, pretending to be casual, but inwardly mustered an unknown amount of courage before calling out, “Brother Su Yun.”

At the sound of that one phrase,

Su Yun felt like he had won.

So what?

Perhaps the man by her side was merely a friend.

She called me Brother Su Yun.

The previously self-conscious Su Yun suddenly felt a bit more alive.

Whereas he had wanted to leave moments ago, now he would not move even if beaten.

Su Yun displayed his posture and looked at Yuwen Longyuan, asking Nishang, “Who is this?”

At this point Ningash’s toes were clenched tight.

She introduced them: “This is Yuwen Longyuan, the lost bloodline of the Marquis Wuxiang of Baoji Kingdom, leader of Western Wuwang in the Second Circle’s new city, and also my family’s brother.”

Then she introduced Su Yun: “This is Su Yun.”

Compared to Yuwen Longyuan’s titles, Su Yun had only a name.

Although the difference was obvious,

upon hearing Nishang call Yuwen Longyuan “brother,” Su Yun breathed a long sigh of relief.

Seeing Su Yun’s expression relax, Nishang finally let go of her nervousness.

He’s just my brother, brother says black stockings have charm~

Just as Su Yun reached out his hand, Yuwen Longyuan also extended his, and the two exchanged greetings.

Yuwen Longyuan gestured toward the nearby Phoenix Tower: “Mr. Su, shall we go sit in the Phoenix Tower together?”

He wasn’t afraid of crowds.

The more people, the better.

And he wasn’t a fool; Su Yun’s open-and-subtle glances were a provocation toward him.

If you want to be a peacock showing off,

then come along and get settled at the same time.

Yuwen Longyuan carried a bit of scheming in him.

Little did he know that by chance he had found the most crucial person.

They went to the Phoenix Tower.

The two sat facing each other.

Nishang sat beside them, completely uneasy.

Then Yuwen Longyuan reminded her: “Princess Nishang, didn’t you say you came to discuss the plan?”

Before Nishang could speak, Su Yun chimed in: “What plan?”

Yuwen Longyuan did not hide his excuse and spoke bluntly.

When he mentioned it was to counter Lu Ding,

Su Yun immediately became interested: “Then it must use the best method. Nishang, didn’t I give you a few vials of Fiery Dragonfish blood before? You said the experiment was successful; just use that plan for Brother Yuwen.”

Although Su Yun was not particularly clever—before transmigrating to the Second Circle he had only been a university student—he would not randomly accept a stranger’s words without reason.

Why he accepted?

Because he wanted to show off, to make a display—like a student pretending to shoot a basket when a female classmate walked by.

All for show!!

The peacock spread its tail.

Yuwen Longyuan hit the key point: the Fiery Dragonfish blood had been provided by Su Yun.

His eyes flicked.

If anyone had cunning, ten Su Yuns would not match him.

He immediately raised a hand and said: “I didn’t expect, Mr. Su, that you have such means to provide Fiery Dragonfish blood. Those are among the most ferocious species on Overcast Mountain. As their name implies, they have violent temperaments and strong unity.”

Su Yun feigned puzzlement: “Violent temperaments? I think they’re fine. Their ancestor lives in my fishpond; a little blood is nothing.”

At those words,

Yuwen Longyuan’s regard for the man before him rose several levels instantly.

Not only did he have no cultivation yet he could obtain Fiery Dragonfish blood, he even subdued the Fiery Dragonfish ancestor...

He might be ruthless!!

Seeing that neither man intended to hold back, Nishang stopped being inexplicably guarded and decided not to hide anything.

She also wanted to help Yuwen Longyuan.

“Brother Su Yun, if the Fiery Dragonfish blood is to be used to blend and boost strength, it must be paired with your water to suppress side effects and prevent rejection.”

Su Yun waved a hand: “No problem. I get along with Brother Yuwen well; I’ll prepare some for Brother Yuwen to take away.”

Hearing that, Yuwen Longyuan thought, how generous you are; I hope you remain that generous.

He asked curiously: “This water is...”

Nishang knew Su Yun’s personality—normally steady, but still youthful—and who doesn’t like praise?

So she said: “This water is Brother Su Yun’s secret formula. It has many wondrous uses and has made an irreplaceable contribution to the experiments of our Baoji Kingdom. If it weren’t for Brother Su Yun’s spiritual water, our human-demon hybrids wouldn’t have been so successful.”

Su Yun silently straightened his chest.

Two words: meritorious official!!

Yuwen Longyuan’s eyes lit up!!!

“No wonder Baoji Kingdom’s human-demon hybrids have been so successful these last two years. So Mr. Su helped.”

Turns out the source is here.

Just you wait!!!

When I return I’ll have ‘him’ deal with you, cut Baoji Kingdom off at the root.

Su Yun, hearing the praise, suddenly felt Brother Yuwen might not be so bad.

He humbly replied: “Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning.”

With Yuwen Longyuan’s praise and questions, Su Yun answered while his fondness for Yuwen Longyuan climbed steadily.

In these years in the Black Phoenix Gathering, he hadn’t had many friends of the same sex.

Now Yuwen Longyuan’s arrival filled some of that void.

He had assumed Yuwen Longyuan was a romantic rival, but it turned out Yuwen Longyuan wasn’t interested at all.

Once that misunderstanding was cleared,

Su Yun bore no strong hostility toward him.

Of course the main thing was: this was his home turf. In the courtyard were swarms of thugs; if anything went wrong help would arrive immediately.

Elsewhere he couldn’t be certain,

but on this patch of the Black Phoenix Gathering,

anyone who wanted to mess with Su Yun had better think twice, and in their conversation Yuwen Longyuan had already learned most of Su Yun’s demonic spirits’ situation.
