Zhou Xingtong and Liang Hongda attacked in rage, going all out. The other great teachers spontaneously guarded the doors and windows.
They werenât going to allow this murderer to escape.
The maid couldnât withstand the impact and could only stand there in a daze. Fortunately, Sun Mo was quick and pulled her wrist, dragging her out of the room.
Otherwise, as an ordinary person, she wouldnât be able to withstand the great spirit pressure. Her internal organs would be severely damaged.
âThank you! Thank you for saving me!â
The maid finally reacted and with a plop, dropped to her knees and kowtowed to Sun Mo.
Right now, other than gratitude, she was also feeling strong admiration.
Although she couldnât fully understand Sun Moâs deduction, he looked too cool when talking confidently and smoothly in front of a bunch of major characters.
(Thatâs right, that dark great teacher was also caught by Three-time Champion Sun.)
Sigh!
(Even if I go through another ten lifetimes, I still wonât have the right to get married to a man like Great Teacher Sun, right?)
The maid felt very sad inside.
(This is all because Iâm a servant!)
Sun Mo didnât notice the maidâs feelings. He was complaining to the system.
âYouâre really ruthless. Arenât you afraid that Iâd be assassinated?â
Sun Mo had to give it to the system.
This time around, the Divine Sight had failed again. It wasnât able to display information on the fungus type and spores. It was even more impossible for it to search for the traitor.
Sun Mo had to rely on himself to work things out.
âIf you were to die, itâd only prove that you arenât outstanding enough. In that case, Iâd have no choice but to look for a new host.â
The system was emotionless.
âThis means that I canât trust you?â Sun Mo smiled coldly. âThank goodness you didnât give me wrong information!â
âDo you only get that now? You can only trust the knowledge youâve learned.â
The system didnât show any signs of being ashamed at all.
âIâm just a system and I work hard in supporting you to become a wonderful great teacher. However, I can make mistakes too or even use some means to spur your growth. Therefore, no matter what help I provide you with, you need to think it through. Call your own judgments, then eventually decide on whether you want to use it.â
âSince youâre a system, you werenât created out of nothing, right?â
Sun Mo felt curious. âWho created you guys?â
âThe hostâs level is too low and so I wonât reply to you!â The systemâs voice was icy cold. âWork hard to raise your level. After you become a saint, all the mysteries will be resolved!â
After saying that, the system fell silent, not paying Sun Mo any heed.
However, Sun Mo couldnât care to continue asking questions anymore. It was because the fight in the room had ended.
After the short-haired great teacher received two palm strikes from Zhou Xingtong, he was smashed in the head by Liang Hongdaâs punch. He then shattered into a lump of black fog, which dissipated in the room.
âSpiritual control technique?â
Liang Hongda frowned.
âThat doesnât look like it. It seems to be some kind of dark secret art?â
Zhou Xingtong focused and listened quietly. He then swung a punch in the air, feeling displeased that the enemy had fled.
The great teachers gave chase but didnât see any traces of the dark great teacher.
âTeacher Sun, since you know about this type of spore, donât you have the means of treating it?â
Divine Doctor Feng gritted his teeth in pain.
As a doctor as well as Zhou Xingtongâs old pal, he had naturally run over to the bed at the instant Zhou Wenbin cried out in agony. As he was too close, he was splashed with the most liquid after the pus exploded.
Zhou Xingtong was next. Right now, their faces were horrendous, covered in densely packed bumps, like the back of a toad.
They looked extremely disgusting and could cause someone with trypophobia to be scared to death on the spot.
âTeacher Sun, can you give us prescriptions to try regardless if they are useful or not?â
âCan you help us to stop the itch first?â
âF*ck his mom. If I were to catch that guy, Iâd definitely tear him up into pieces.â
The major characters no longer had any restraints and composure. All of them were asking Sun Mo for help amidst the curses.
No one would believe it if Sun Mo were to say he didnât know how to treat it.
There were several grandmaster-level alchemists, botanists, herbalists, and even divine doctors here. However, no one knew what Zhou Wenbinâs condition was.
However, Sun Mo had even managed to analyze the enemyâs interlocked stratagems. And this was all reliant on his vast knowledge base.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Sun Mo didnât wish to help. He naturally wished to see the Zhou Clan down in luck.
After all, with Zhou Wenbinâs life saved, Sun Mo would be able to get the favor from them. Moreover, it was quite an enjoyable event to see his opponents suffer.
âThereâs no way to cure these spores. They are like smallpox. After getting it, one will have a lot of marks left on their bodies. Itâs for sure that these spores will hurt the skin, but my Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands has the miraculous effect of removing scars. You guys can come to the Central Province Academy to look for me later.â
Sun Mo was actually scheming against these people.
Thanks to the darkness encyclopedias, Sun Mo knew a few types of medicinal herbs that could cure the lingering poison from this type of spores. However, he didnât wish to tell them.
The power behind these major characters could find these herbs quickly, and in that case, his favor would be reduced to just providing a solution.
This wouldnât do!
Sun Mo wanted to get the biggest share of the pie.
Therefore, he would let these major characters go to the Central Province Academy to seek treatment.
(I will use my ancient massaging technique to help you recover your appearances and maybe even become more handsome. You guys will have to return this great favor, right?)
(Aside from material presents, they then have to conduct a few classes at the Central Province Academy, right?)
He could just drag out the treatment, getting them to stay at the Central Province Academy longer. As they stayed on, theyâd eventually become one of his people.
âThatâs right, thatâs right! Weâve all forgotten about your God Hands!â
All the major characters heaved a firm sigh of relief. It was fine as long as they wouldnât become uglier.
Thereafter, their attitude toward Sun Mo took a big turn.
There was no helping it. Whether theyâd look good or bad in the future would all be dependent on Sun Mo.
This was why they said that âwhen you eat food offered by others, youâll be unable to speak honestly.â âWhen you take things from others, youâll end up being soft-hearted.â
âTeacher Sun, can your Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands really change oneâs appearance?â
A slightly uglier major character asked hesitantly.
âEn.â
Sun Mo smiled and nodded with certainty.
âThen can you alter my appearance?â
The major character looked at Sun Mo with anticipation in his gaze. âIâm not greedy! I donât need to be too handsome! Itâll be fine with just 70% of your looks!â
Swoosh!
Everyone immediately looked at him with contemptuous gazes.
(This isnât greedy? If someone has half of Sun Moâs good looks, he will be considered a little handsome, and women will hanker for him.)
âDo it for me too! I only want 50%!â Liu Xu spoke up.
â40% for me!â
â30% for me!â
All of the major characters fought to book a slot for cosmetic surgery. They also expressed in an indirect way that if Sun Mo or the Central Province Academy were to encounter any problems, he could come to look for them.
âHave you guys had enough?â
Liang Hongda spoke up, glaring at everyone. âCanât you guys let Sun Mo sit down and talk? Itâs so tiring to be standing!â
Even though Liang Hongda addressed Sun Mo directly by his name and not as Teacher Sun, this wasnât him trying to keep his distance but to act on friendlier terms. When he said Sun Moâs name, it was like he was calling a nephew in his family.
âIf I were to look for a portrait, could you help me change my looks accordingly?â
Liang Hongda asked secretly.
Sun Mo was stunned. (As expected of the vice sect lord, he knows about custom-made things. Other people only want to alter their appearances a little, but youâre thinking of changing your face?)
âYes!â Sun Mo wore a troubled expression. âBut it takes a lot of time and energy. Iâll have to do it over ten times.â
If it wasnât difficult, how could he show that this was an amazingly great favor?
âIt doesnât matter if it takes a little longer or if I have to go through some hardship. The main thing is that I can look good in the end!â
âThatâs right. Weâre all over 100 years old. We can afford to wait a few years.â
âIâm not greedy. Just help me get rid of my wrinkles and give me double eyelids!â
These major characters started to chat happily around Sun Mo, crowding around him.
At the sight of this scene, Zhou Xingtong was conflicted about giving Sun Mo a gift to express his gratitude. In the end, he decided to be generous about it.
âTeacher Sun, thank you for rendering your assistance!â
Zhou Xingtong smiled and said, âPlease bring your ears closer, Iâll impart you with the Ten Thousand Miles Movement.â
Swoosh!
All the major characters present hushed and looked at Zhou Xingtong with stunned expressions. (Have you gone crazy? Youâre giving such a great gift to express your gratitude?)
Ten Thousand Miles Movement was an inferior-grade saint-tier movement technique.
However, even though it was just an inferior-grade cultivation art, it was pretty amazing since it was at the saint tier. To think that Zhou Xingtong was going to give it away?
But after everyone gave more thought to this, they understood why.
Sun Mo had saved Zhou Wenbinâs life. Moreover, there was a high chance that theyâd have to trouble Sun Mo for his help in the future.
Zhou Xingtong could pay no heed to his looks, but what about Zhou Wenbin?
As the planned successor to the clan, having a toad-like bumpy face would definitely cause others to feel disgusted toward him even if they didnât dare to voice it out in public.
Moreover, given the Zhou Clanâs background, they still had more amazing saint-tier cultivation arts. Furthermore, the Ten Thousand Miles Movement was just a movement technique.
In the great teacher world, attacking cultivation arts generally had a greater value than movement techniques, non-attacking cultivation arts, as well as various dark secret arts.
Take Xuanyuan Poâs Prairie Blazing Fire Spear Technique for example. In the studentsâ eyes, it was better than the Wind King Divine Art.
Of course, the most important thing was that after Sun Mo accepted such a valuable gift, heâd naturally have to bury the hatchet with the Zhou Clan, becoming friends with them.
Things like getting Secondary Saint Zhou to apologize mustnât be brought up again.
This was considered to be paying to avert a disaster.
An inferior-grade saint-tier cultivation art in exchange for a secondary saintâs reputation should be quite worth it.
Therefore, if Sun Mo were to accept the gift yet kept on harping on the matter of how Secondary Saint Zhou had refused to take Li Ziqi as his disciple, other people would say that Sun Mo was extremely greedy and insatiable.
âAs expected of the head of a great clan. Zhou Xingtong is killing three birds with one stone!â
All the great teachers were in praise.
Even Liang Hongda was shocked by Zhou Xingtongâs decisive generosity.
Although he knew that there were many great benefits in giving out the Ten Thousand Miles Movement, it was still a saint-tier cultivation art after all. To many people, it was something that could be passed down as a family heirloom.
Therefore, Liang Hongda felt that if he was in Zhou Xingtongâs shoes, he wouldnât bear to do this.
âThis shows that the Zhou Clan definitely has better saint-tier cultivation arts.â
Liang Hongda sighed. A secondary saintâs clan really had a strong background.
Sun Mo didnât say anything but looked toward Zhou Xingtong.
âTeacher Sun, donât just stand there. This is an opportunity thatâs hard to come by!â
A great teacher persuaded, wanting Sun Mo to accept the perk first.
âTeacher Zhouâs gift is too precious. Please pardon me for not being able to accept it!â
Sun Mo kept his hands behind his back. âMoreover, you donât have to mind this. The reason I saved Wenbin isnât because he is the great grandson of a secondary saint. Even if he were just a passerby, Iâd still lend a helping hand.â
His words sounded very noble, but no one took them seriously.
Sun Mo should try to refuse instead of accepting it readily. Otherwise, itâd reflect him as being too greedy and anxious. It wouldnât be good for his image.
Zhou Xingtong knew about this as well and thus tried to persuade him again.
âSaving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Your helping hand is worthy of a great gift. We, the Zhou Clan, just want to extend our gratitude.â
Zhou Xingtong felt upset. (Iâm the one giving the gift, but yet I look as if Iâm currying up to him. This feels so low! This is a saint-tier cultivation art Iâm offering. Who wouldnât care for it? If I were to throw it out, half of the great teacher world would fight for it even if it cracked their heads.)
âIf there are any changes to Wenbinâs condition, you can come to look for me.â
Sun Mo couldnât be bothered with the useless talk.. After saying this, he turned and left the courtyard.
