Qu Jianlei agreed to Luo Hanshuang, and naturally would also consider what if Xingluo Academy or the Luo Family turned against him.

However, this trip to the Mist Mansion not only brought him great gains, but also clarified much of the path ahead.

Since that’s the case, going to Celestial Hook can also resolve some causes and effects.

Moreover, if the other side truly harbored ill intentions, it would likely be targeting his knowledge reserves rather than the treasures.

Even Luo Hanshuang, when selecting treasures, understood the importance of choosing books, which showed the Imperial value placed on knowledge.

In comparison, those treasures were much lighter in weight.

Qu Jianlei believed that as long as the other’s primary goal wasn’t to eliminate him at all costs, he had a chance to escape.

After moving into the room, the fellow B-level guard greeted him, ”Hello, Hanshuang really shone this time, didn’t she?”

Qu Jianlei replied indifferently, ”It was just luck, she’s just a child. If you hold her too high, she might fall.”

He wasn’t entirely naive about social interactions, but at times like these, keeping a distance was a wise choice.

This left the guard in an awkward situation; he paused before forcing a smile, ”All resources before Supreme are free after all.”

Qu Jianlei again responded nonchalantly, ”The family will remind her... a genius who dies young isn’t a genius!”

Talking like this, you’ll easily end up friendless! The B-level guard felt a bit frustrated.

Qu Jianlei didn’t pay him any attention, and after dinner, he went for a walk.

After dinner, Luo Hanshuang was directly called away by the instructor.

Then she faced a leader and two deputy leaders, ”Can you conveniently talk about what you’ve gained in the Mist Mansion?”

The teachers really weren’t ill-intentioned; in fact, they had shown great patience by waiting until now to ask.

Luo Hanshuang directly took out her Storage Talisman, ”It’s all inside... feel free to take a look, teachers.”

The female instructor first took it and perceived, then was directly shocked, ”Oh my, did you empty the Mist Mansion?”

So many Five Elements Crystals, plants, and minerals made her completely numb.

The other two teachers took a look into the Storage Talisman and were also dumbfounded.

It was the team leader’s extensive knowledge that helped him regain composure, then he asked, ”All acquired from the inner and outer circles?”

”No,” Luo Hanshuang honestly shook her head, ”I also gathered some from the wilderness and mountains.”

The leader nodded slightly, indeed, that made logical sense.

His knowledge reserves were truly ample, ”This Black Bottle should be from the inner circle, right? Plus the long sword!”

Luo Hanshuang didn’t expect to deceive them, nodding, ”My completion rate is quite high.”

The leader nodded slightly, saying no more, but looked towards the female instructor—some things were not suitable for him to ask.

The female instructor spoke, ”Hanshuang, could you talk about the questions you encountered and how you completed them?”

Luo Hanshuang was silent for a long time without answering.

She waited for more than a minute and, noticing that the teachers were still silent, replied in a deep voice, ”This involved my family’s legacy.”

This answer was the result of a discussion with Aunt Han.

The reason for this answer wasn’t just a fear of Ran Bingluan—it was mainly for the family’s benefit!

Brother Ran’s entire process of solving the problems was seen by her and Aunt Han, giving them confidence to easily tackle similar questions in the future.

With such a skill in hand, they certainly needed to consider their family’s interests.

This was why she had previously worn a bitter face, repeatedly exclaiming—How should I make this up?

The teachers exchanged glances after hearing this; they had already probed into the Luo Family’s background.

Individuals are not allowed to research Alien Divine Text, the Imperial law is ironclad, yet some unforeseen factors must be taken into account.

The Luo Family’s ancestors had produced a Primordial Superpower Warrior!

After a long pause, the leader sighed, ”Can the long sword be taken out for a look?”

No wonder those with an eye for value knew what was truly valuable.

Luo Hanshuang hesitated a moment before answering, ”I hope to have my family’s guard as a witness; otherwise, I cannot explain it to my family.”

The academy’s teachers are certainly trustworthy, but accidents are unexpected precisely because they defy logic.

This response disarmed the teachers of any anger.

They already knew that the two guards accompanying her were from the Luo Family, information impossible to hide from the Luo Family.

Thus, the guard’s witnessing was necessary, and in case of any accident, the academy could absolve itself of responsibility.

Aunt Han was just outside the door and came in as soon as she opened it, ”Little Ran went out after dinner... but having me here is enough.”

The teachers exchanged a glance; the Luo Family’s caution was indeed extraordinary.

One guard came along, but the other slipped out... Damn, are Xingluo Academy’s teachers really that untrustworthy?

Heaven forbid, Qu Jianlei, indeed, went out not in coordination with Aunt Han.

Last time, he was almost coerced into selling and attempted to snatch back but failed, leaving him somewhat brooding.

Now that he was about to leave Celestial Blade, he wanted to see if the other party was still in Celestial Wings City.

Aunt Han observed the situation from the side, estimating that the teachers might have misunderstood, but... a misunderstanding could be advantageous.

The team leader took out the long sword, observed it closely for a while, and then swung it twice, full of envy, ”Indeed, it truly is a Magical Treasure.”

The female instructor took the long sword and continued to play with it. Luo Hanshuang looked delighted, ”Is it really a Magical Treasure?”

She had her suspicions and felt it should be a Magical Treasure, but mere guessing couldn’t compare to the teachers’ confirmation.

”A Magical Treasure?” The female instructor’s expression changed, knowing that such legendary artifacts could even make the Supreme risk everything.

At this moment, she even regretted being an academy teacher—she truly couldn’t bring herself to snatch a student’s possession.

Ultimately, she gave a bitter smile, ”Hehe, it even tempted me, but to be honest... I also can’t protect it.”

The last sentence was the plain truth! Another deputy leader took the long sword, and also waved it twice.

Then he returned the sword, mumbled a bit, and finally said, ”The academy will communicate with the Luo Family.”

Xingluo Academy can’t resort to coercion and plunder, but knowing there is such an artifact, they can’t just do nothing.

This is a Magical Treasure, not a one-time resource. In the future, if the academy has a need, it can be rented.

Besides, such an arrangement isn’t a bad thing for the Luo Family, either.

Once word gets out, if not for the protection of Xingluo Academy’s nameplate, could the minor Luo Family really keep this Magical Treasure safe?

However, discussing such matters in front of a student might impact their values, so it’s better to discuss directly with the Luo Family patriarch.

Seeing Luo Hanshuang take the sword, the team leader nodded and spoke of another matter.

”That bottle of pills also seems unusual, the academy can help find someone to inquire about it, Hanshuang, would you like that?”

Luo Hanshuang hesitated a moment before answering, ”My family can also invite people to investigate this, I need to consult with them first.”

”Well, alright,” the team leader couldn’t forcefully demand it; otherwise, it would be inappropriate.

”But Hanshuang, I advise you not to lightly use the pills to experiment, or it would be too wasteful!”

Going back to consult with family members is fine, all three saw the Alien Divine Text, and they could also find experts to consult.

As long as the academy doesn’t overstep, a bit of flexibility usually isn’t greatly debated by people.

In the end, students get to intern thanks to the academy’s benefits; some things can’t be overly nitpicked.

The team leader said so much and felt embarrassed to continue, so he signaled to the female instructor.

The female instructor asked the last crucial question, ”How many opportunities did you get in the Inner Circle?”

”Just these two,” Luo Hanshuang was prepared and replied straightforwardly, ”I couldn’t take anything else away.”

At that moment, she felt a bit lucky, fortunately, the third item she chose was a plant.

The Inner Circle’s plants were certainly better than those outside, but whether it was worth choosing was uncertain.

However, this time she was grateful; choosing a plant drew less attention from the teachers.

Ultimately, the differences between these various plants weren’t fully grasped even by the teachers.

Two opportunities? The three teachers did not become suspicious... which was not impossible.

They all knew that entering the Inner Circle could earn up to three opportunities, but most people only got one.

Hanshuang securing two opportunities made her outstanding among those entering the Inner Circle; three was improbable.

So the female instructor voiced another question, ”Then, what were the remaining opportunities?”

This question wasn’t a negotiation; the student had to answer it.

The academy organized the student internship, providing students with opportunities, so shouldn’t you give back to the academy?

The students’ gains weren’t something the academy should casually covet, but those opportunities you missed—there’s no harm in talking about them, right?

Luo Hanshuang was mentally prepared for this question, ”There were also three black bottles and a yellow stone...”

In any case, she wouldn’t tell the whole truth, leaving some things obscured.

She drew the characters for ”Soul Nourishment,” ”Replenishing Qi,” and ”Detoxification.”

”Detoxification” was for Aunt Han; she didn’t write down ”Life Extension.”

That small bottle’s elixir must be extremely precious, so it’s better not to mention it.

Luo Hanshuang’s thoughts matched Qu Jianlei’s precisely—it would be great to return immediately and hide away to cultivate first.

After the three teachers finished asking, they exchanged glances, and the female instructor spoke seriously.

”Hanshuang, you must keep this internship’s circumstances to yourself, or the academy might not be able to protect you.”

”I understand,” Luo Hanshuang nodded without hesitation, ”The world outside is dangerous for us students.”

Did it feel like a veiled insult? The female instructor felt her ears grow slightly warm.

But she continued seriously, ”We will issue a confidentiality order to other students, everything will be discussed after returning to the academy.”

”If you can’t keep it to yourself, the teachers and other students will be working in vain.”

”Hmm, understood,” Luo Hanshuang nodded obediently, though her eyes were filled with confusion: Why would I expose myself... what’s the point?
