1676 The Great Contributor, the Wood Spirit Fruit (2)

Even though Kou Sun also understood what Du He said, he still had to send someone to Delin Country to investigate for the sake of caution.

Of course, he couldn’t let Du He know about this, or he would definitely cause trouble for him again.

On the other side.

After leaving Du He’s office, a glint flashed through Lu Zijia’s eyes and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Before she decided to register at Hongtian Academy, she had already expected such a day. She just didn’t expect it to come so soon.

Fortunately, she had already thought of a way to deal with it. Otherwise, the deans probably wouldn’t have been fooled so easily.

Of course, the greatest contributor was still the Wood Spirit Fruit.

After obtaining the core of the Wood Spirit Fruit, she let the golden pagoda plant it in the space and used a large number of Spirit Stones without considering the cost, causing it to mature in just a month.

At this moment, two mature wood spirit fruit trees had already grown in her space.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to use the Wood Spirit Fruit as a cover when she was refining pills just now.

Fortunately, the Deputy Dean recognized the Wood Spirit Fruit, or she would have to explain herself.

“It seems that Wifey passed it successfully?”

Mu Tianyan, who was waiting not far away, had already guessed the result when he saw the smile at the corners of Lu Zijia’s mouth.

Lu Zijia smiled and nodded. “Yeah, it’s all thanks to the Wood Spirit Fruit, who helped us in time. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have passed so easily.”

Besides, even if she passed, other alchemists would definitely be suspicious if they knew that her success rate was too high.

Then, they would try their best to find out the secret that she had a high success rate.

This way, she would become a piece of cake that everyone wanted to take a bite of.

“Wifey, you’re so considerate.” The corners of Mu Tianyan’s mouth curled up slightly.

“It’s all thanks to the golden pagoda’s sharp eyes that it discovered that it’s the Wood Spirit Fruit Core.”

Lu Zijia still remembered the credit of her little friend.

“Then, Master, shouldn’t you reward the hero? For example, with roasted meat and cake.” The golden pagoda’s voice suddenly sounded in Lu Zijia’s mind.

Lu Zijia smiled helplessly at the golden pagoda that asked for a reward at a very appropriate time. “Got it. I’ll roast meat for you tonight, okay?”

“I want twice as much roasted meat as Big White and Taiyi!” The golden pagoda was overjoyed and pushed its luck.

Lu Zijia was in a good mood and didn’t mind it taking advantage of the situation, so she agreed readily.

…

In the office of the Dean of the Alchemy Institute.

“What did you say? That good-for-nothing is an alchemist? And a high-level Mystic Rank alchemist?!” Liao Zhenshan stood up excitedly. His heart was like a calm lake, causing waves of irrepressible ripples.

The guard who reported nodded and said respectfully, “Yes, the Deputy Dean has already tested Lu Zijia again himself. There’s no problem. As for why her cultivation level improved so quickly, it was completely because of pills. The Deputy Dean also said that the Wood Spirit Fruit you’ve been looking for is in Lu Zijia’s hands.”

At this point, the guard hesitated for a moment before continuing, “Director, the Deputy Director asked me to send you a message. He said he doesn’t want anything to happen to an outstanding alchemist like Lu Zijia in our academy.”

Obviously, what Kou Sun meant was that he could get the Wood Spirit Fruit from Lu Zijia, but he had to use a legitimate method, and not attack Lu Zijia secretly.

Hearing that, a sharp glint flashed across Liao Zhenshan’s eyes and he immediately sneered. “It seems that the Deputy Dean thinks highly of this useless person. However, Kou Sun is a bit short-sighted after all. He’s really becoming more and more incompetent.”
