"Divine Text Docunt..." Granny Jia glanced at Qu Jianlei but didn’t show any surprise.
"Looks like your interactions with them are quite close. I should have sent you to Green Water Academy earlier."
So, sending to Green Water Academy was for my own good? Qu Jianlei was a bit confused.
So he directly asked, "These archaeology enthusiasts... are they untouchable?"
"A bunch of outlaws," Granny Jia replied dismissively, "using so banner as an excuse for their antics."
Then she spoke seriously, "You have to be careful. If you associate with them for too long, you might accidentally end up on the Imperial wanted list."
The wanted list? Qu Jianlei wasn’t too concerned—it was sothing he was used to.
He asked curiously, "Granny Jia, you seem to... have had quite so interactions with them as well?"
Granny Jia responded nonchalantly, "Contact is just contact, is it so strange? Who doesn’t encounter so things in life?"
"Just don’t be influenced by others. Where in the world is everything so black and white?"
Only you can say sothing like that! Qu Jianlei asked again, "So that day, you didn’t plan to catch up to them?"
"What kind of question is that?" Granny Jia replied indifferently, "I couldn’t catch up."
Is that so? Qu Jianlei looked at her skeptically, the Supre couldn’t catch up to an A-level?
"Don’t look at like that," Granny Jia answered casually, "I got injured, and my realm fell."
Why don’t I believe that? Qu Jianlei took out a cigarette, lit it, and smiled, "Then why dare you co to to clarify?"
That’s why he wasn’t very good with words. Even though it was the truth, it was really harsh.
However, Granny Jia didn’t mind. She had encountered many types of people in her life, so what hadn’t she seen?
When she fell from the Supre realm, she had also seen too much of human nature.
She answered casually, "If I get into trouble, I can still have Supre combat power, you understand?"
"I understand," Qu Jianlei nodded. It’s just that wielding Supre combat power cos at a great cost. "It’s not worth it for small matters."
But he still didn’t quite understand, "If it’s the Water Attribute, can the Supre perceive my Attributeless?"
"Heh," Granny Jia chuckled dismissively, "Who told you I’m Water Attribute?"
"Understood," Qu Jianlei nodded thoughtfully. The Supre can indeed use techniques of other attributes.
As for concealing one’s originally awakened attribute, perhaps... it’s not that hard?
Yet he was still curious, this person could actually see through his hiding, "Are you also... Wind Attribute?"
"Don’t ask about that," Granny Jia waved her hand, "So you don’t have to worry about how to take down."
"Am I that crazy?" Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly.
"I usually avoid trouble, Granny Jia, you haven’t offended , so why would I take you down?"
Granny Jia gave him a deep look, seemingly pondering whether this guy could actually take her down.
After a pause, she thoughtfully stated, "Speaking of killing, you don’t seem opposed to it at all?"
Qu Jianlei nodded decisively, "I’m different from the academy superpower warriors, my hands are stained with blood."
Granny Jia snorted dismissively, "Even superpower warriors outside the academy may not have killed many people either."
That’s the norm, not every superpower warrior has blood on their hands.
Then she suspiciously glanced at Qu Jianlei, "You’re not... also wanted, so you’re keeping a low profile, are you?"
"Wanted by the Imperial? Not for now," Qu Jianlei chuckled; he was only wanted on the Garbage Star.
"But it doesn’t matter, I’m just an interstellar wanderer, who knows when I might commit sothing,"
Granny Jia thought for a while and then asked seriously, "Where does your inheritance co from?"
I knew it... Qu Jianlei surmised that there must be a reason why the elderly was this concerned about him.
He cleared his throat lightly, "If I say I have no inheritance, Granny Jia, would you believe ?"
"How could that be?" Granny Jia answered without hesitation, "Could it be wild?"
"Wild..." Qu Jianlei smiled bitterly, "Co to think of it, it’s not far from the truth."
But how could Granny Jia believe that? Even if you were self-taught, there has to be a limit, right?
Then Granny Jia reacted, disdainfully asking, "Are you worried I would steal your inheritance?"
Qu Jianlei smiled slightly and did not answer, just looked at her calmly.
"What kind of inheritance haven’t I seen?" Granny Jia snorted coldly, "I’m just curious who would let a talent like you out?"
Why doesn’t anyone believe when I’m telling the truth? Qu Jianlei shook his head and gave a helpless bitter smile.
"Granny Jia, just tell , why are you looking for ?"
Granny Jia hesitated for a mont and sighed helplessly, "If I say I simply care about you as a genius, I guess you wouldn’t believe it."
"Then I’ll ask a favor... When I co across a good seed, can you help guide them?"
This was her real purpose; when encountering a rare talent, isn’t it only natural to make a friendly gesture?
However, Qu Jianlei was too suspicious. Even though he understood the other party’s reason, it was impossible to fully believe it.
After so thought, he asked, "Then let bluntly ask, didn’t you think of retrieving the stolen book?"
"That book is useless," Granny Jia replied without hesitation, "I’ve already tried to retrieve it, but to no avail."
"Just like how you’re only responsible for guarding the main entrance, I’m only responsible for that mont in ti, not what cos after."
Qu Jianlei nodded slightly, thinking to himself that you’re not an old fossil after all; you know how to be flexible.
"You actually know that they hold supre power here, right?"
"So what?" Granny Jia pouted her wrinkled lips, "I’m not afraid of them, just find them troubleso."
That was true! Qu Jianlei also disliked trouble, and he couldn’t help but nod in agreent upon hearing this.
"It’s not impossible for to help you, but what do I get in return?"
"You’ll have my protection," Granny Jia responded unhesitatingly, "Don’t think I’m old... I never promise this to anyone."
Qu Jianlei nodded, "I understand, I’m also afraid of trouble, but just your protection isn’t enough!"
Granny Jia froze for a mont, encountering for the first ti a young person daring enough to bargain with her.
But considering that the other party is a rare talent, it seems... not so hard to understand.
"You’re quite greedy, aren’t you? Besides my protection, what else do you want?"
Qu Jianlei had already thought it through, "Sothing in the realm of cultivation, books or crystals will do."
"Crystals..." Granny Jia hesitated for a mont, "I have so, but I can’t just give them to you for free, right?"
"I can buy them at a fair price," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "Preferably with so cultivation techniques or divine text docunts thrown in."
"Divine text docunts..." Granny Jia looked at him thoughtfully, "You’re really not afraid of getting yourself wanted!"
"With barriers, I have no other choice," Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "One has to make so compromises."
Granny Jia sighed and nodded, clearly agreeing with his words.
But she still was a bit puzzled, "Cultivation techniques... you’re still lacking them?"
Qu Jianlei blinked, "Cultivation techniques... you can never have enough, I’m attributeless."
"Don’t fool ," Granny Jia, at her age, even if she were reborn as a pig, should have beco wise long ago.
"Such a young A-level attributeless awakener... I don’t believe you’d be lacking cultivation techniques!"
"Of course I’m not lacking in cultivation techniques," Qu Jianlei looked at her innocently, "I an no matter how many I have, it’s never enough."
Granny Jia furrowed her brow, "Is there a difference?"
"Of course," Qu Jianlei reached into his coat and pulled out a stack of papers, this was driving him to make the most out of one fish three tis...
"There’s space fluctuation," Granny Jia bluntly comnted, proving she wasn’t deaf or blind yet.
But as a forr supre, she expressed no surprise about the storage space.
"Take a look," Qu Jianlei handed over two pieces of paper, "So modifications to the wind attribute cultivation thod."
Granny Jia took the papers, her previously dim eyes turning sharp in an instant.
She glanced at them casually, her eyes growing brighter, and spoke, "Is it complete?"
"Of course," Qu Jianlei casually answered, "But it’s not perfect... unless I can get more cultivation techniques."
"Where are there so many perfect things?" Granny Jia remarked dismissively, thinking imperfection was true perfection.
But in the next mont, she refocused her attention on the papers in her hand, "This cultivation thod is not cheap, is it?"
"I don’t plan to sell it," Qu Jianlei stated bluntly, "If the conditions are right, we can trade."
"Hmm," Granny Jia nodded, showing no surprise.
But then she realized sothing, "This modified cultivation thod, how many tis have you traded it?"
Having his strategy of profiting repeatedly exposed, Qu Jianlei felt his face flush slightly.
But he quickly justified himself, even if I’ve traded it, so what? Information barriers objectively exist.
The cultivation thods I’ve traded away, can you definitely get them?
So he answered indifferently, "Not many tis, and I never planned to trade the wind attribute cultivation thod with you!"
He guessed that Granny Jia had initially awakened the wind attribute, but now she was in her twilight years, trading this attribute was aningless.
Although the old lady had her guesses, she couldn’t help herself when she heard this answer, "You have other attributes then?"
"Of course," Qu Jianlei replied without hesitation.
"If you’re interested, at least gold attribute is sothing I can offer."
He brought up this attribute with a purpose, knowing Granny Jia’s great-granddaughter Zi Jiu Immortal, a professor, had awakened the gold attribute.
Granny Jia was montarily taken aback, then shook her head with indifference, "You’re talking about Jiu Xian? She’s not gold attribute; she’s sand."
