Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears Chapter 67: Departing for Du Nan City Tomorrow

Gu Yuexi looked at them as if they were hopelessly sheltered, her patience wearing thin. "Director Zhang, did you need sothing?"

Zhang Chengye took a deep breath, forcing down his shock, and said seriously, "Here’s the situation."

"Gu, we’ve reported your situation to the Federation. The ssage from the higher-ups is clear: your safety is the top priority."

"Therefore, you won’t need to participate in the upcoming unified exam, and there’s no need to transfer to Du Nan First Middle School either."

"In two days, at most, the Federation’s Ministry of Education will send soone to escort you to the Capital City."

"Once there, you can take your pick of our top two universities, Huaqing or Yan University, and enroll in whichever one you choose."

"In the Capital City, we can best ensure your safety."

This was an offer no student in the Great Xia Federation would even dare to dream of.

However, Gu Yuexi simply closed the book on the Secret Technique she was holding and gave a slight shake of her head.

"No."

"I can skip the unified exam, but I must transfer schools."

"I will absolutely not attend Huaqing or Yan University as a student from Jiang City Lingwu High School."

Zhang Chengye was stunned. "Why? Does... does it make a difference?"

Gu Yuexi lifted her gaze, her cold eyes perfectly calm. "Because they don’t deserve it. They don’t deserve to take credit for my success."

Zhang Chengye was speechless.

He opened his mouth, but for a mont, he didn’t know what to say.

He was, of course, aware of how the principal and dean of Jiang City Lingwu High School had treated Gu Yuexi, so he understood her resentnt.

He just never expected the girl to hold a grudge to this degree.

Still...

It didn’t matter. This wasn’t a big deal.

’It’s just a school transfer, isn’t it? A simple phone call will settle it.’

"Alright, I understand."

Zhang Chengye nodded. He didn’t try to persuade her further, simply pulling out his phone and dialing the principal of Du Nan First Middle School.

The call connected quickly.

"This is Zhang Chengye, Provincial Education Bureau," he said flatly.

A panicked voice imdiately ca from the other end. "Ah?! Director Zhang? You... You’re calling personally?"

Zhang Chengye got straight to the point. "Principal Chen, has your school recently received a transfer application from a student nad Gu Yuexi?"

"Ah? One mont, sir! I’ll check right away!" A flurry of frantic activity could be heard from the other end.

A minute later, Principal Chen’s voice ca through again. "Yes! Director Zhang, I found it! We did receive one! We’ve already sent two teachers to pick her up and administer the entrance..."

"Waive the assessnt," Zhang Chengye cut in. "Process her enrollnt imdiately. The entire procedure must be completed by the end of today."

"Ah? Director... but... why..."

"This pertains to a top-level Federation secret. Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t be asking."

"Ah?!"

Principal Chen jumped in fright and hastily agreed. "Yes! Of course! I’ll get it done right away!"

But after a pause, he added hesitantly, "Um... Director, the two teachers we sent to conduct the assessnt should be arriving at Jiang City Lingwu High School soon. I can’t reach them by phone at the mont, so I’m not sure what’s going on..."

Zhang Chengye fell silent.

He had just rembered that he’d ordered signal jamrs to be set up around the school to maintain secrecy.

’Whatever.’

Zhang Chengye hung up. After a mont’s thought, he turned to Chairman Wang, who had been listening quietly, and raised an eyebrow.

"Chairman Wang, how about you go take care of that? Tell those two teachers to head back."

Chairman Wang blinked. "Ah? ?"

’Are you kidding ? I’m a Seventh-Grade Spiritual Mind Master, and he wants to run an errand for a trivial matter like this?’

Zhang Chengye said calmly, "You know what people from Du Nan are like. They have a superiority complex and look down on people from smaller places like Jiang City. Those two teachers probably won’t have the best attitude, and an ordinary person might not be able to get them to listen. That’s why I’m asking you to go."

Chairman Wang’s brow furrowed. He still wasn’t happy about it. ’They’re just two teachers. Can’t you just send one of your subordinates? Why ? Just because I’m standing here, you think you can order around?’

’I’m not your damn subordinate! What does the Provincial Education Bureau have to do with the Spiritual Mind Master Association? Who are you to order around!’

’I’m not going!’

’A task like this is beneath . Absolutely not!’

Chairman Wang resolved this in his heart and was about to make an excuse to refuse. "I..."

Gu Yuexi suddenly glanced at him and said softly, "Chairman Wang, I’ll have to trouble you."

Chairman Wang jolted, snapping to attention. A broad, flattered smile spread across his face as he thumped his chest. THUMP. THUMP.

"No trouble! No trouble at all!"

"It is my honor to be of service to you, Miss Gu! Rest assured, I guarantee I’ll handle this matter perfectly. I won’t let those two blind fools disturb your peace!"

With that, he turned enthusiastically and strode out the door.

’Are you kidding ?’

’An opportunity to run an errand for a future Emperor-level Powerhouse? How many people would kill for a chance like this?’

’Forget running an errand, he’d be more than happy to go break those two teachers’ legs if asked!’

Zhang Chengye was speechless again.

He shot a speechless glance at Chairman Wang’s departing back, then thought for a mont before turning back to Gu Yuexi.

"Going to Du Nan is fine, too. In that case, we can head over tomorrow."

"While Du Nan isn’t the Capital City, it’s still one of the top ten major cities in the Great Xia Federation. You’ll be much safer there."

"I’s just not comfortable with you staying in a small place like Jiang City for too long."

Gu Yuexi nodded. She had no objection to this.

To be honest, she’d long been tired of a dump like Jiang City. The city didn’t even have a basic Spirit Gathering Array, and the Spiritual Qi was incredibly thin.

Resources of all kinds were pathetically scarce. You could empty out the entire City Lord’s Mansion and still not find a single Earth-tier Technique or Spiritual Artifact.

If she stayed in a place like this, even soone like her, Gu Yuexi, would probably need decades, if not centuries, to have any hope of reaching the Emperor Realm.

However...

Gu Yuexi glanced at the pulsing Blood Cocoon beside her and said calmly, "We’ll have to wait for it to finish evolving."

Zhang Chengye followed her gaze, nodded, and asked, "How long do you think that will take? I need to arrange our travel."

"How long?" Gu Yuexi mused.

’This thing’s evolution takes a little longer each ti.’

’Last ti, it was ten hours.’

’This ti, it’ll probably be fifteen or sixteen hours, I’d guess?’

"Around... noon tomorrow, I think?" Gu Yuexi gave a conservative estimate.

"Alright. I’ll co back tomorrow at noon, then."

Not wanting to disturb her further, Zhang Chengye nodded and took his leave.

The room returned to silence.

Gu Yuexi watched the Blood Cocoon, silently calculating the ti.

’Fifteen or sixteen hours... Well, I’ll just have to wait.’

She set aside the Secret Technique, closed her eyes, and began to digest and absorb the insights gained from the vast amount of ntal Power she had used today.

However, she had been in deep ditation for less than an hour when...

CRACK!

A crisp sound, like a cracking eggshell, abruptly echoed through the quiet room.
