Chapter 810: Chapter 462: Selling the House Chapter 810: Chapter 462: Selling the House [Nurturing serpent people across a thousand mountains and rivers.]
Chen Mobai sent over a line of text, and Kong Feichen understood it in an instant.
The phrase “a thousand mountains and rivers” is a poetic na for Jumang Academy, where Kong Feichen had entrusted the Devouring Heaven Serpent, which housed a part of Yang Jing’s divided spirit, to him.
Kong Feichen: [Is sothing the matter?]
Chen Mobai: [I have a friend who was cheated by an Immortal a few days ago. He was supposed to be at the bar, relaxing, but soone drugged and knocked him out. When he woke up, valuable items on him were gone. I wanted to ask if there’s any dicine that can put a Foundation Establishnt Practitioner into an unconscious state without any resistance?]
Friend?
Seeing this, Kong Feichen probably understood, but considering the future reliance on this guy, he decided not to expose him.
Kong Feichen: [There are plenty of such dicines. However, within the Immortal Gate, usually only physicians can obtain and configure them. If you want to list them, I can na over a hundred.]
As the top-ranking newcor in the Imperial dical Academy, Kong Feichen’s talent in pharmacology was praised by all. Although resources in the Immortal Gate were scarce, the system was well-developed, and the number of dicines effective for Foundation Establishnt was countless.
Chen Mobai: [My friend took the cup he drank from and it still has so dried coffee stains on it. Is it possible to analyze the specific drug components from these remains?]
“Bars serve coffee too?” Kong Feichen thought to himself, but on the chat interface he only typed the latter part: [That is possible. However, the main camp of the Ascension Sect is not on Di Yuan Star, so it might be quite troubleso if you want to deliver your things to .]
Chen Mobai: [How troubleso?]
Kong Feichen: [I can’t co myself, but I will have the sect’s contacts on Di Yuan Star collect the item, which ans it will change hands several tis.]
At this point, Chen Mobai hesitated.
After all, as the rightful future successor of the Immortal Gate, having substantial contact with the Ascension Sect and being found out could result in a huge stain on his reputation.
Chen Mobai: [Can’t you just turn into a bird and co over again?]
Kong Feichen: [That works, but I’m quite tied up recently. You’ll need to wait for a while.]
Chen Mobai: [That’s fine. I’m not in a hurry.]
Kong Feichen: [Isn’t it your friend’s issue?]
Chen Mobai: [Cough cough, my friend entrusted with the matter, so it’s my business now. I’m just soone who values loyalty.]
Kong Feichen: [Heh.]
…
Originally planning to stay in Red City Cave Heaven for a while longer, Chen Mobai really couldn’t stay there any longer after this incident.
The key issue was that he couldn’t share this unfavorable experience with others and had to suppress the discomfort in his heart.
The next day, after eting with Bian Jingchun, Zhongli Tianyu, and others, he hastily had a al and booked a flight ticket back to Red Sandstone City.
While he was dealing with this year’s business for the Sky Talisman Factory and the Puppet Factory back in his hotown, another piece of good news arrived: Yan Bingxuan had passed the preliminary qualifications for studying at the Patching Heaven Institute.
What followed was the formal examination, which was the most difficult part. After all, the majority of the practitioners from the Immortal Gate would aim for the Four Great Daoist Sects before graduation.
Aside from soone like Chen Mobai, who was directly invited for recruitnt, for the other Foundation Establishnt Practitioners, it was as challenging as the proverbial single-log bridge crossed by a thousand soldiers.
For this reason, Yan Bingxuan didn’t return ho this year and, having passed the preliminary qualifications, stayed at the Nature Studies Academy to study hard in hopes of passing the examination in one go.
This was quite a regret for Chen Mobai as well.
However, since everyone from his cohort had graduated this year, his return to Red Sandstone City ant that he nearly had dinner engagents every day, so he was not lonely.
Many of these were farewell parties combined with weddings. For instance, after having a al with Lu Hongsheng, he was set to serve in the military at the beginning of the next year.
Among their cohort, including the most recent addition, Yan Bingxuan, there were only seven who had successfully achieved Foundation Establishnt.
However, this was quite good compared to previous years.
To know, so years didn’t even see a single person succeed.
Chen Mobai said farewell to many, but Shi Jingjing’s decision to enlist in the military service took him by surprise.
“Aren’t you going to get married and have kids?”
“I feel I am capable of achieving Foundation Establishnt. It’s just that I was too playful before and didn’t focus enough.”
Shi Jingjing did indeed have considerable talent, and her father was a True Cultivator at the level of Foundation Establishnt. Being widely experienced, she was sowhat unwilling to settle for this way of life.
“Then I wish you success in your Foundation Establishnt.”
Chen Mobai offered so pleasant words. Today, they were at Immortal Gate’s High School No. 5 to film an episode of a campus interview series featuring returning graduates.
Because during their ti, Chen Mobai, Yan Bingxuan, Cao Yaling, and Shi Yuanqing—four Foundation Establishnt Practitioners—erged, the school achieved an unprecedented record since its establishnt. Therefore, the Education Departnt of Red Sandstone City wanted to film a feature for publicity.
Chen Mobai, who always had a good relationship with the officials of Red Sandstone City and also felt affectionate towards the high school, gladly accepted the invitation while he still had so ti.
Apart from Yan Bingxuan, who was preparing for postgraduate studies, nearly everyone else attended.
Chen Mobai t Song Zheng, who he hadn’t seen for a long ti. Compared to his youthful arrogance, he now appeared sowhat lancholic.
However, he was accompanied by his pregnant wife, Mo Simin.
Both worked at the Heavenly Book Academy. After many years of being together, they ca to understand each other. In the last two years, with Mo Simin taking the initiative to reach out, Song Zheng, who failed in his Foundation Establishnt, was healed by her. Although they hadn’t held a wedding banquet yet, they had registered their marriage that year and were already husband and wife.
