章 564: Chapter 19 The Double Agent Meng Hongchen_1
Faced with Jing Hongchen's question, Qin Xiao smiled but remained silent.
"President, you can't kill me..."
Wang Shaojie cried out, "I carry the noble bloodline of the emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire; if I die,
you'll also have quite a bit of trouble."
He tried hard to demonstrate his value, hoping to save his life.
However,
Jing Hongchen had already regarded Qin Xiao as one of his own, and hurting Qin Xiao was tantamount to hurting his clan.
Therefore,
why would Jing Hongchen spare him?
The next moment, immense Soul Power burst from Jing Hongchen's palm, and Wang Shaojie was directly obliterated into ash by the powerful Soul Power.
After doing all this, Jing Hongchen calmly withdrew his hand, looking somewhat apologetic as he said to Xuan Ziwen, "Teacher Xuan, I'm really sorry for dirtying your laboratory."
Xuan Ziwen shook his head indifferently, "President, how do you plan to explain this to the royal household?"
"Explain?"
Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen revealed a look of surprise, "Why should I explain? Clearly, Wang Shaojie was operating the soul tool inappropriately during its fabrication, directly causing the explosion of the laboratory and blowing himself up beyond recognition. I am the one who expects an explanation from the royal household.
The items in this laboratory are all very expensive; the royal household will have to purchase new equipment for me at full price."
As he said this, Jing Hongchen also asked, "By the way, do you have any old experimental equipment here that needs to be updated?
This time I'll apply for the funding for you... yes, all charged to Wang Shaojie's account."
Xuan Ziwen was taken aback upon hearing this, "This..."
He did indeed have some old experimental equipment...
"What's with this 'this'..."
Jing Hongchen waved his hand grandly, "Just say what you need, all expenses will be covered by Young Master Wang."
Wang Shaojie: "..."
Qin Xiao was fine with slinging mud at himself, but now Jing Hongchen wants me to carry the can, right?
You really are ruthless.
"Alright then..."
Xuan Ziwen said, and went over to the massive alloy table in the laboratory.
He took out paper and pen, and began to write vigorously, itemizing a detailed list.
At this moment, Jing Hongchen stared at Qin Xiao, asking curiously, "Kid, now that we're alone, tell me, what exactly is your Martial Soul?"
"It's the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion..."
"Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion, good heavens, you really haven't let me down. It's an Ultimate Ice Martial Soul..."
Jing Hongchen's eyes suddenly widened, his face filled with astonishment.
After all,
some things are one thing to guess, but another to confirm.
Qin Xiao, how remarkable!
"It seems that how to cultivate you is indeed a problem."
After his shock, Jing Hongchen's eyebrows were locked in a frown, deep in thought.
If Qin Xiao was only extraordinary in his talent as a Soul Master, Jing had the ability to instruct him.
But when it came to cultivation issues, he was somewhat powerless.
After all, how high was his Cultivation Level?
On Soul Land, there were many people whose Cultivation Level exceeded his.
If he really followed the way most Soul Masters of the Sun-Moon Empire ceaselessly consumed medicine to increase their Cultivation Level, it might not be a good thing for Qin Xiao.
At this moment, Jing Hongchen suddenly realized his capabilities might be insufficient.
"President, I've finished writing."
The call from Xuan Ziwen pulled Jing Hongchen back to his thoughts.
He reached out and took the paper Xuan Ziwen handed him.
His eyelids twitched violently.
The list was incredibly long.
Even with Jing Hongchen's Cultivation Level, it took almost half a minute to finish reading it.
Then, he asked, "Teacher Xuan, could you tell me if there's anything left here that hasn't been replaced yet?"
Xuan Ziwen thought hard and seriously, "There shouldn't be."
"President, you said it yourself, all expenses are on Young Master Wang's tab; surely you're not having heartache over this, are you?"
"Would I?"
Jing Hongchen inconspicuously put away the list and took out some items from his Spatial Soul Guidance Device to give to Qin Xiao.
"This is..." Qin Xiao felt a surge of emotion.
"This is Thousand-Year Whale Ointment, a really good thing. Applying it all over your body can improve your physique; I went through a lot of effort to get it.
You could say you're lucky.
I was going to give it to you before, but you disappeared. Now, it's back to its rightful owner, hahaha."
After saying this, Jing Hongchen laughed heartily.
Inside, Qin Xiao felt somewhat moved.
This guy, he really was nothing but good to me.
Qin Xiao decided then, if Jing Hongchen continued to harbor no ill will towards him in the future, he wouldn't mind offering something in return.
Of course, all of that was yet to come.
Hopefully, Jing Hongchen would seize the opportunity well.
After handing the Thousand-Year Whale Ointment to Qin Xiao, Jing Hongchen didn't say anything else and left the laboratory.
He made his way back to his own office.
First, he wrote an announcement and sent someone to deliver it to Wang Shaojie's family.
Then, he summoned a servant and ordered him to bring over one of the two great talents from the Hongchen Clan, Meng Hongchen.
Jing asked Meng Hongchen to follow Xuan Ziwen to learn; he decided to speed up this process.
Whether learning was important or not wasn't the issue.
What mattered was cultivating a relationship.
He thought Qin Xiao was a good match, so pairing Meng Hongchen with Qin Xiao seemed like a good choice.
...
"Brother Qin, Ju Zi, I have some matters to attend to with my teacher, don't wait for me for lunch..."
In the laboratory, after quickly tidying up, Xuan Ziwen left these words behind and hurried out of the laboratory.
In an instant,
only Ju Zi and Qin Xiao were left.
"Pitter-patter!"
Ju Zi didn't speak, but tears couldn't stop falling from her cheeks to the floor.
What's going on?
Qin Xiao was puzzled.
