Peerless Immortal Emperor in City
Chapter 485 - 484: Old Classmates (Third Update)
Qin Heng had actually refused Ning Shuying's invitation. Oh my God! How was that possible? It was unbelievable!!
"What did you just say??" Ning Shuying looked at Qin Heng incredulously, even doubting if she had misheard. Qin Heng had actually refused her invitation. "I was inviting you to join the Myth Organization! Do you know what you've refused??"
Could there really be someone in the world who would refuse to join the Myth Organization? Unbelievable!!
In Ning Shuying's view, this was simply unbelievable, something she found hard to accept. For ordinary people, joining the Myth Organization meant inheriting countless Divine Skills and Immortal Laws that martial artists dreamed of. They would also enjoy the support of national resources for cultivation. What generous treatment that was! It was just like in ancient legends where Immortals transformed mortals into celestial beings—a truly great fortune, a tremendous opportunity! And yet, he, without even thinking, without a second thought, had refused!!
Ning Shuying could see that Qin Heng hadn't given it any consideration at all; he had simply refused upon hearing her invitation. What on earth was this guy thinking?
"You! Do you really understand what the Myth Organization means?" Ning Shuying watched Qin Heng with an extremely serious gaze, staring into his eyes as she questioned him, "This is the Myth! How many people have gone to desperate lengths, exerted all their strength, poured all their efforts, just to join the Myth!!"
"I know, and I'm very clear about it." Qin Heng smiled faintly. "You're not the first person to invite me. I refused before, and I will refuse again this time."
Previously, the Myth Organization member code-named Lv Chunyang, whose strength and status were even higher than this current Greedy Wolf Star Lord, had also invited him.
"..." Ning Shuying fell silent upon hearing this. She could see that Qin Heng truly didn't want to join Myth. But he possessed an Innate Taoist Body; what if other powers managed to snatch him away?
The scene turned awkward. Qin Heng smiled cheerfully without speaking, waiting to see how Ning Shuying would respond.
After a long silence, Ning Shuying suddenly looked up, her gaze once again meeting Qin Heng's directly. "If you don't want to join, I won't force you. However, I must tell you something. Your physique is very special, and you will become a target for many. Therefore, on Penglai Island, it's best you don't stray more than a kilometer from me."
After this military training is over, I'll apply to the organization to become a teacher at Beijing University. I must keep a close watch on this guy. Ning Shuying had made up her mind.
He's an Innate Taoist Body. No matter what, I must ensure he sides with Myth! With her resolve firm, Ning Shuying no longer insisted on inviting him now. She returned to the front of the squad, resumed her previous cool demeanor, and said in a deep voice, "Now, the military training officially begins. First, stand at attention here!"
She actually had the students start military training without giving them any rest. Many students turned pale as soon as they heard this, their expressions practically filled with despair. These students, after the long journey by military helicopter and the previous shocks, were already exhausted. Now, they were ordered to stand at attention without any chance of rest. It was maddening.
"Greedy Wolf Star Lord, have you forgotten what I just said?" Qin Heng spoke softly, breaking the silence of the squad, addressing Ning Shuying. "Let's start the military training tomorrow. Forget about today."
The surrounding students listened, stunned. Holy crap!?
Was that too bold? Directly telling the instructor to stop today's military training and start tomorrow?? Although that was what everyone hoped for, who would dare say it so directly? This Qin Heng was perhaps too audacious. But with Instructor Ning's personality, she wouldn't agree, would she? Moreover, Qin Heng had just rejected her invitation. Now he was speaking so brazenly; wasn't he afraid Instructor Ning would discipline him??
Many people looked at Qin Heng with disbelief. They thought he was far too arrogant, daring to treat Instructor Ning with such an attitude—simply courting death! Nobody really believed Qin Heng could persuade Ning Shuying. Even though Ning Shuying had wanted to invite Qin Heng to join the Myth Organization just moments before, he had already rejected her. In the eyes of these students, Ning Shuying must now view Qin Heng very unfavorably. Her earlier words about protecting Qin Heng were probably just a formality. An instructor, and an Innate Grandmaster of the Myth Organization at that, had personally extended an invitation only to be rejected; she would definitely feel humiliated!!
Within the Tsinghua University squadron, Chu Yun looked toward Qin Heng with worry. Her delicate fists were clenched tightly, her palms sweating. She was extremely concerned about Qin Heng, fearing Ning Shuying might target him because of this.
—This was Qin Heng's deskmate from Tianhai No.1 Middle School. The two had a good relationship in high school, and she had scored exceptionally well on the college entrance exam, gaining admission to Tsinghua, right next to Beijing University. She had never had the chance to find Qin Heng until this joint military training of the three famous schools on Penglai Island. She couldn't wait to catch up with him, but the current situation simply didn't allow for it!
Qin Heng, you have to be okay! Chu Yun prayed silently, her gaze occasionally darting toward Qin Heng in the Beijing University group; she was truly very worried.
Not far from Chu Yun, the boy who had looked over when Ning Shuying mentioned Qin Heng possessed an Innate Taoist Body noticed Chu Yun's behavior. A hint of a cold sneer flashed in his eyes.
At that moment, Ning Shuying spoke. Her cool gaze rested on Qin Heng as she took a deep breath and said, "Alright, then you can rest for today. We'll officially start the military training tomorrow. There's an open space beyond the helipad where we've already prepared tents. You can choose how you want to stay but, of course, you will have to set up the tents yourselves. Dismissed!"
The final word, "Dismissed!" exploded like a bomb, stunning all the students on the spot.
Dumbfounded. Everyone was dumbfounded!
They all looked at Ning Shuying with disbelief, then turned their astonished gazes toward Qin Heng. Holy shit!?
What was happening? Instructor Ning had actually listened to Qin Heng's words! Unbelievable! It was just too unbelievable!!
The students were ecstatic, looking at Qin Heng as if he were a god!! He had defied an instructor, rejected her invitation, and even had the audacity to lecture her, managing to delay the military training!! He was simply too strong, too incredible, too badass!! A god-like existence indeed!!
Chu Yun, in the Tsinghua formation, was also incredibly surprised, but more than that, she was overjoyed. They had been dismissed! It meant she could go directly to find Qin Heng!!
At this moment, many Tsinghua boys were already approaching her, trying to strike up a conversation. Chu Yun was incredibly beautiful, her figure and appearance truly perfect, definitely campus belle material. During the on-campus military training, many boys had already set their sights on her.
But before these boys could speak, Chu Yun ignored them all and headed straight in Qin Heng's direction.
Suddenly, Qin Heng felt countless jealous gazes upon him.
