Did You See My Eyes?

In Qi Zixiao's eyes, the power Lu Xueqi displayed when she used the Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique on television was actually nothing special.

What truly interested her was the method of fusing swordsmanship with magic, while borrowing the might of Heaven!

Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique...

The Divine Sword could be classified as swordsmanship, or sword control.

Controlling thunder, meanwhile, was magic. At the same time, "thunder" was the might of Heaven...

How powerful would it be when all three were fused together?!

In Qi Zixiao's view, when Lu Xueqi used it, even with low cultivation and little proficiency, forcing herself to cast it... she could still drive back her enemies.

But what if she used it herself?! Wouldn't it be at least several times stronger?

With this thought in mind, Qi Zixiao naturally developed a keen interest in the Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique!

Thus, after cultivating cross-legged for half a day, Qi Zixiao began to devote herself wholeheartedly to studying the Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique...

Time passed.

It seemed to happen in the blink of an eye, but this crossing had already lasted a full day.

The next morning, Lin Fan shouldered his backpack and set out for C City University of Technology...

His main field was physics, so even as a graduate student, he spent most of his time doing odd jobs for his supervisor in the university's physics laboratory.

His roommate, Wang Dong, was the same.

For that very reason, he needed to go to the university to report in—and, at the same time... fool Wang Dong!

What did he need to fool Wang Dong for?

Naturally, he wanted the guy to help him "testify" and prove that he had a legitimate reason to take leave!

Although Lin Fan had decided that whenever Qi Zixiao was controlling his body, he would stop attending class, he still felt it would be best to preserve his graduate degree.

After all, nobody knew how long this crossing would last, or what heights he would ultimately reach.

In today's society, college students were as common as dogs, and graduate students could be found in great swaths. Without this degree, if the crossing became useless one day, how would he earn money and make a living?

After arriving at the university and reporting to his professor, he went to help out in the laboratory...

Lin Fan had long since become thoroughly familiar with these tasks, completing them smoothly and in one breath.

At lunchtime, Lin Fan pulled Wang Dong aside...

The other man's expression was somewhat aggrieved, his gaze practically that of a single dog overflowing with jealousy.

"Doggy, you've changed."

Wang Dong spoke in a forlorn tone. "We agreed to be happy single dogs together, to stay single and walk this road together, but you... sigh!!!"

"What can I do? I'm just too handsome."

Lin Fan tilted his head back with a smug flourish. "How about I introduce you to a couple?"

"Brother, you're my great brother!"

Wang Dong instantly grabbed Lin Fan's hands. All "four eyes" were watery and glistening, overflowing with tender affection.

"Damn, don't touch me. I'm not interested in men."

"I'm not interested in you either. I just want you to introduce me to two beautiful women..."

"Fine, there are beautiful women, but why should I introduce them to you?"

Lin Fan grinned...

He really did know quite a few beautiful women. Leaving aside everything else, the Protector Disciples of the Purple Mansion Holy Land—and even some ordinary female disciples from the outer sect—were absolutely not lacking in looks.

At the very least, they were all above average, and every one of them was completely natural.

"Name your price!"

Wang Dong was a "clever" fellow. He understood as soon as he heard this, but he also showed no fear. "A person lives for these things, doesn't he?"

"What do you want? As long as it isn't my body, I'll get you anything you ask for!"

"Get lost. I'm not as filthy-minded as you think. It's just that, from now on, I'll be taking three days off every three days, and perhaps even longer..."

"But I'm afraid Old Chen will get angry and refuse to let me graduate later, so you understand, right?"

"So you want me to cover for you? Whenever Old Chen is around, I'll find a way to get you leave, and when he isn't, I'll do all the work for both of us by myself?"

"Am I really the kind of person who'd screw you over?"

Lin Fan glared. "You've really hurt me. Would I do something so underhanded to you?"

"Heh!"

Wang Dong folded his arms, making it perfectly clear that he didn't believe him.

Oh? This kid had gotten smarter!

Lin Fan calmly said, "I'll definitely apply for the leave myself. You... only need to testify for me when Old Chen asks, saying that I really have important business and can't come."

"Heh, what if Old Chen doesn't believe me?"

"Isn't that simple? Appeal to his emotions and reason and convince him. If that doesn't work, you can even swear that if you're lying, you'll be struck by lightning or something..."

"Damn!"

Wang Dong's eyes widened. "Isn't that still the same thing? And I even have to get 'struck by lightning'?"

"When Old Chen isn't here, what about those experimental assignments? Am I still supposed to finish them for you?"

"What do you take me, Old Wang, for? Do you think introducing me to one beautiful woman is enough to make me submit?"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want two!"

"Deal... but not right now."

Lin Fan agreed without the slightest hesitation, but he also made it clear that it wouldn't be right now.

He could cross over, and he had already mastered the basics of the Sole Supremacy Art... In truth, Lin Fan felt slightly more at ease now.

Even if he could never cross over again, with this art, he could probably still make a name for himself in the future. Of course, it might not be a name forged through fighting and killing, or that of some great hero. Rather, with martial arts at his disposal, many things would become far more convenient.

Once things stabilized a little, introducing Wang Dong to two beautiful women or something wouldn't be impossible!

What?

Wang Dong from the Purple Mansion Holy Land couldn't meet him, and Lin Fan of this world didn't know many people?

Not knowing anyone was merely the situation for now, wasn't it?

Afterward... everything would change!

"Fine, I'll give you at most one month." Wang Dong thought it over for a moment. "After a month, if you still haven't introduced anyone to me, I won't agree to anything, no matter what you say."

"Relax, pretty boy. I'll definitely introduce you to someone."

Seeing that Wang Dong had agreed, Lin Fan beamed.

"Speaking of which, why are you taking leave for no reason? And for several days at a time, so often?" Wang Dong could no longer suppress his curiosity.

"You really want to know?"

Lin Fan asked in a mysterious whisper.

"Of course. Why would I ask if I didn't want to know?"

"Since you've asked so sincerely... well, actually, I'm going to cultivate immortality."

Wang Dong: "(ˉ_￣)..."

"Did you see my eyes?"

"I saw them. The eyes of an idiot."

"Get lost! These are the eyes of someone looking at an idiot!!!!"

"I told you, but you didn't believe me. Then you asked me again even though you didn't believe me. You're making me so anxious~"

Lin Fan spread his hands. "Would I have to tell you even if I were going off to lay bricks?"

"That reason actually makes quite a lot of sense. But if you're short on money... I can lend you some. You can pay me back when you have money later, can't you?"

"You have money?"

"No..."

"Then why the hell are you saying that?!"

"I just wanted to tell you not to be so polite with your daddy..."

"Get lost!!!"
