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

Only Gu Yuexi and the elder remained in the conference room.

The elder looked Gu Yuexi up and down, a kind smile spreading across his face like that of a friendly neighborhood grandfather.

”Truly, heroes are forged in youth... oh, wait, a young heroine in this case.”

”Gu, I hope I’m not disturbing your rest? Here, have a seat. Don’t be formal.”

He pointed to the chair opposite him.

Gu Yuexi didn’t sit, merely standing there quietly.

”Get to the point.”

The smile on the elder’s face stiffened slightly. He cleared his throat and introduced himself.

”I am a special commissioner from the Education Department. My surname is Wang. I’ve come today on behalf of the authorities, primarily to reward you for your brilliant performance in the International Youth Martial Dao Competition, and... to coordinate.”

His eyes flickered as he said the word ”coordinate.”

Then, with a grand wave of his hand...

CLATTER—

A row of exquisite brocade boxes and eleven different, shimmering Spatial Rings appeared out of thin air on the tabletop.

”Gu, you can inspect these items first.”

”Inside each of these rings, you’ll find either a Celestial Tier Upper-Grade Spiritual Artifact, a Ninth Grade Level Top-Grade Spiritual Plant, or the Essence Blood and Inner Core of a Peak of Emperor Realm Demon Beast.”

”In addition, there are massive amounts of Cultivation Resources, enough to support your Cultivation all the way to the Peak of Ninth-Grade, perhaps even to the King Realm.”

The elder’s tone held a hint of temptation.

It was truly a magnificent offer.

Even an expert of his caliber felt a pang of envy looking at these treasures. The Ten Great Clans had clearly paid a fortune for that spot this time.

Gu Yuexi didn’t even lift an eyelid.

To an ordinary Martial Artist, these treasures were things they couldn’t hope to obtain in several lifetimes.

But in her eyes?

’They’re nothing special.’

However, Chu Sheng, nestled in her collar, was stirred awake by the scent.

WHOOSH!

A black shadow shot out from Gu Yuexi’s collar and flew directly to the table.

Chu Sheng, like an antique appraiser, buzzed wildly around the eleven rings, occasionally rubbing them with his legs to inspect the goods.

BUZZ BUZZ! ’Good stuff! This is all good stuff!’

Chu Sheng drooled as he made his calculations.

Seeing the mosquito that had suddenly appeared, Commissioner Wang was taken aback for a moment, then said with a grin:

”Heh, it seems Lord Divine Mosquito knows his treasures.”

”As long as Gu agrees, all of this will be yours.”

As he spoke, he pulled a thin sheet of paper from his briefcase and gently pushed it in front of Gu Yuexi.

”Gu, all you need to do is sign this.”

Gu Yuexi glanced at it.

On the paper was a ”Statement on the Voluntary Forfeiture of the Divine Son Spot and Related Rights and Interests.”

Every word and every sentence stressed ”voluntary” and ”for the greater good.”

Gu Yuexi laughed and spoke directly.

”And if I don’t sign?”

She raised her head, looking straight into Commissioner Wang’s eyes.

The smile on Commissioner Wang’s face slowly faded, replaced by a long, helpless sigh.

”Gu, you’re a smart person.”

”This is the best possible outcome that Deputy Director Li and I were able to fight for on your behalf, under immense pressure.”

”BANG!”

Just then.

The conference room door was violently thrown open.

The loud crash interrupted Commissioner Wang.

A young woman in a luxurious haute couture dress, her makeup exquisite but her face full of arrogance, swaggered in, flanked by two bodyguards in black.

Those two bodyguards were actually King Realm experts!

”Heh, Elder Wang, why waste your breath on a country bumpkin who’s never seen the world?”

As the woman walked, she swept a disdainful gaze over Gu Yuexi, her expression like she was looking at a beggar trying to haggle.

”Do you think not signing will make a difference?”

”You’re Gu Yuexi, right? I can’t be bothered to beat around the bush with you.”

”This agreement is just a courtesy, a way to give you and Jing University some face. Don’t push your luck!”

She walked to the table, casually picked up a ring to toy with, and spoke in a condescending tone:

”The Divine Son spot is crucial to the Human Race’s plan for achieving godhood.”

”Only an elite like me, with a noble Bloodline and the support of a powerful clan, is worthy of it. Only I am qualified to represent humanity and fight for that sliver of hope.”

”As for you?”

She sneered, tossing the ring back onto the table with a sharp CLANG.

”You’re not worthy!”

”What’s happening today is a notification, not a request. Understand?”

The air in the conference room instantly froze.

Elder Wang’s expression changed. He started to speak, but was silenced by a sharp glare from the young woman.

Gu Yuexi slowly turned to face this woman who had barged in spouting bullshit.

Her expression held no anger, only the tranquility of someone looking at a dead person.

”And you are?” she asked coolly.

The young woman lifted her chin like a proud peacock.

”Listen up and listen well.”

”I am the eldest daughter of the direct line of the Liu Family, one of the Ten Great Clans—Liu Qingyao!”

”The future Divine S—”

Before she could finish the word...

Gu Yuexi moved.

There was no warning, no preliminary surge of Spiritual Qi.

It was like a flash of lightning.

SLAP!

The sound of a slap, sharp and clear, echoed through the room.

Immediately after.

BOOM—!!!

Liu Qingyao was sent flying backward like a kicked sandbag!

Her body slammed violently against the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Even though it was made of special bulletproof glass, it shattered like fragile paper under the force of the blow.

CRASH!

Shards of glass filled the air.

Letting out a bloodcurdling scream, Liu Qingyao flew straight out of the conference room, plummeting from the top floor toward the ground below!

”Young Mistress!!”

The two King Realm bodyguards’ eyes widened in horror. They hadn’t even processed what had happened before she was already gone!

They were just about to move...

Suddenly.

A terrifying, ferocious aura, as if from a primordial era, instantly locked onto them.

On the table.

The black mosquito, which had just been greedily eyeing the rings, was now slowly hovering in the air.

It hadn’t grown any larger; it was still just as tiny.

But its compound eyes glinted with a heart-stopping red light.

”BZZZZ—”

It was just a low hum.

But the two King Realm bodyguards felt as if a great hammer had smashed into their very souls. Their bodies went rigid, and cold sweat instantly soaked their backs.

The feeling... was like being targeted by a peerless, man-eating Fierce Beast. If they dared to move even a finger, they would be dead without a proper burial in the next instant!

BUZZ BUZZ. ’You shouldn’t interfere in a fight between women.’

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ. ’This Lord Mosquito will play with you.’

...

「Meanwhile, below the administration building.」

It was the peak time between classes, and the area was bustling with people.

The sudden ”rain of glass” and the figure falling from the sky instantly caused a huge commotion.

”Holy shit! Did someone jump?!”

”No! They were knocked down!”

”Who is that?”

Liu Qingyao lay sprawled on the lawn, her exquisite dress torn to shreds by glass shards. She was groaning in pain, trying to get up.

Just then.

A figure in white floated down from the broken window.

Gu Yuexi landed steadily beside Liu Qingyao, descending like an immortal from the heavens.

Then.

Before the horrified eyes of the hundreds of students watching...

She lifted her foot and mercilessly stomped on Liu Qingyao’s once-arrogant face!

SQUELCH!

Liu Qingyao’s face instantly contorted, half of it sinking into the mud.

Gu Yuexi looked down at her, her voice not loud but carrying an aura of world-dominating power that spread clearly across the entire area:

”This Empress fought for the Divine Son spot.”

”I’m not worthy?”

”Or is a piece of trash like you worthy?”

Gu Yuexi wasn’t angry, because someone like Liu Qingyao wasn’t worthy of her anger.

But she was, truly, getting annoyed!
