Super Gene Hunting Ground

Yang Xiao returned to the dormitory and took a nap.

These days, he had been tirelessly studying the Life and Death Iteration Law of Genetic Evolution, which was indeed exhausting. The battle with Qin Yue just now consumed a lot of Qi,

Although he could use a Medium Blood Pill to replenish his stamina and Qi, that was only a short-term solution; proper rest was fundamental.

He knew there might be consequences for killing Qin Yue, but he couldn’t care about that right now. Even if the sky were to fall, he’d still have to get some rest first.

When Yang Xiao woke up, it was already evening.

He took a shower, changed clothes, and headed out.

However, just as Yang Xiao walked out of the dormitory building, he encountered a few students.

They looked at Yang Xiao, their faces lighting up with surprise, and rushed over to greet him.

”You’re Yang Xiao, right? The one who defeated Qin Yue in the arena today, right?”

Yang Xiao nodded.

”I’ve heard so much about you, Yang Xiao. Hello, I’m Chen Kui. Let’s be friends.”

The other two shook hands with him, introduced themselves, and insisted on pulling Yang Xiao to their dorm for a visit.

Yang Xiao awkwardly replied,

”Sorry, I have something to do. Maybe next time.”

With that, he hurried away.

Along the way, Yang Xiao met many unfamiliar students who either pointed at him or proactively came over to greet him and make friends.

Too much fame is never a good thing. A single challenge had already made Yang Xiao renowned throughout Flying Leopard Academy.

Originally planning to eat in the cafeteria, Yang Xiao realized this situation made it impossible to do so.

Hesitating for a moment, Yang Xiao turned towards Yelu Caiyun’s villa.

Caiyun was pleasantly surprised to see Yang Xiao.

”Yang Xiao, come in quickly.”

”Um, by the way, I haven’t eaten yet. Do you have any food at home?”

”Yes, wait a moment. I’ll cook for you myself.”

”Where’s Bing’er?”

”Bing’er and Qing’er are playing in the backyard. She’s really happy today; she said her uncle won.”

Yelu Caiyun poured a cup of tea for Yang Xiao,

”Sit in the living room for a while. I’ll prepare the meal, it’ll be ready soon.”

Yang Xiao nodded.

In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Yelu Caiyun prepared three dishes and a soup and set them on the dining table.

”Come over and eat.”

”Have you all eaten?”

”We just ate not long ago.”

Yang Xiao sat by the table and, without any formality, picked up the chopsticks and started eating heartily.

”Do you need some wine?”

”No, I have to go to the library to read later.”

Yelu Caiyun sat by the table, watching Yang Xiao eat.

Yang Xiao smiled and said,

”Why are you watching me?”

Yelu Caiyun gave a charming smile, then spoke with some seriousness,

”Yang Xiao, I know the challenge with Qin Yue was because of me. I feel very sorry, it’s caused you trouble.”

Yang Xiao waved his hand, smiling,

”It’s not about you. Even without you, with Qin Yue’s personality, he would have challenged others over another woman. You and I are merely incidental factors, it just so happened he encountered us. Don’t take it upon yourself.”

”For my sake, you killed Qin Yue. The Qin family won’t let it go easily. I am really worried and uneasy about you.”

”I know the Qin family will seek revenge for Qin Yue, but now that it has happened, there’s nothing to run from. I believe that within the academy, it should be safe. No matter how powerful the Qin family is, they wouldn’t dare openly kill someone in Flying Leopard Academy, right?”

”The Qin family certainly won’t kill you openly, but I’m worried they will send other assassins to secretly eliminate you. You must be careful.”

Yang Xiao thought for a moment and nodded,

”What you said makes sense. During this time, can you help take care of Bing’er?”

”Bing’er’s no problem. Just let her stay with me here. You won’t have to worry about her. Anyway, Qing’er has plenty of time.”

Yang Xiao finished his meal, called Bing’er over, and instructed her on some matters, letting her stay temporarily with Yelu Caiyun.

Bing’er was more than happy to agree.

”However, you still need to go to the library every day to read books. After finishing the first floor, go to the second and third floors, understand?”

”Yes, understood.”

Yang Xiao left Yelu Caiyun’s villa and headed straight to the library to continue reading.

Fortunately, there were usually not many people on the library’s first floor, and even fewer recognized Yang Xiao, so he could read in peace without disturbance.

Yang Xiao, while cultivating the Life and Death Iteration Law of Genetic Evolution these days, discovered a problem. His intuition told him that this cultivation technique seemed to lack a crucial component, although he couldn’t specify what exactly it was.

Yang Xiao used to feel immediate bodily changes after taking the Blessing Pill or practicing the Heavenly Silkworm Technique, or through Body Refinement, Bone Forging, and Yijin in the Genetic Transformation Technique.

However, while cultivating the Life and Death Iteration Law, aside from a warm current inside his body, there were no other changes, and his Genetic Evolution Space did not advance.

Yang Xiao recalled that Yelu Caiyun said the cultivation technique was copied from an instructor in the Advanced Academy Department.

”Looks like I’ll have to wait until I enter the Advanced Academy Department to meet that instructor and ask about the mysteries of the Life and Death Iteration Law.”

Thinking this, Yang Xiao decided to first elevate his Agility and Defense from 99 points to 100 points to break through to the Emperor Level Evolution. This way, he could apply to enter the Advanced Academy Department.

Around ten in the evening, while Yang Xiao was reading, Xiao Ling arrived on the library’s first floor, found Yang Xiao, and sat down next to him.

”You have some guts, still daring to sit in the library and read books?”

Yang Xiao was startled,

”Why wouldn’t I sit in the library and read books?”

”Heh, it seems you lack any vigilance. You killed Qin Yue. Do you think the Qin family is going to act like nothing happened?”

”What do they intend to do?”

”I have a good friend in the Advanced Academy Department, who is in the same study team as Qin Xiaotian. I specifically asked her to find out,

According to my friend, Qin Xiaotian is almost going mad. He vowed to kill you and only then return home with his brother Qin Yue’s body for burial. He wants you to accompany Qin Yue in death.”

Yang Xiao listened and faintly smiled,

”And Qin Xiaotian thinks he can do it alone?”

Xiao Ling listened, speaking seriously,

”Yang Xiao, aren’t you being too arrogant? Let me tell you, Qin Xiaotian is more than ten times stronger than Qin Yue, even I am not his match.”

”It’s normal for you not to be a match for Qin Xiaotian because you aren’t a match for me either,”

Yang Xiao immediately regretted the last sentence as soon as it came out, quickly shutting up, offering a small apologetic smile as he looked at Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling glared at Yang Xiao, saying,

”Fine, you’re so impressive, I’ll mind my own business then.”

With that, she angrily walked away.

Yang Xiao was taken aback, calling out,

”What about tonight’s late-night snack?”

”There isn’t any, and there won’t be in the future. No need to feed the dead. There’s no point.”

Xiao Ling walked away without looking back.

Yang Xiao gave a wry smile, shaking his head, thinking, what a fragile heart, so sensitive?

But in the blink of an eye, Xiao Ling returned and sat back next to Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao looked up at Xiao Ling: ”...”

What’s going on?

Xiao Ling glared at Yang Xiao, lowering her voice,

”Qin Xiaotian has already taken action against you. I just left the library and found a few strangers outside.”

”How do you know they’re after me?”

”They’ve been around since I came in. When I went out, they were still there, and they looked a bit odd. I think there’s an eighty to ninety percent chance they’re after you.”

”Why don’t they just rush in and cut me down?”

”The library has surveillance systems inside, and I reckon those people are from the Advanced Academy Department, called over by Qin Xiaotian to help. Naturally, they can’t expose themselves.”

”Oh, so what should I do now?”

Xiao Ling snorted, looking at Yang Xiao,

”Now you’re worried?”

Yang Xiao: ”...”

(Sorry, two chapters only for tonight due to matters.)
