Chapter 1697 - 1697 Exorbitant

1697 Exorbitant

“One never visits unless they need something. Tell me, what are you doing in the Martial Arts Department?”

Du He had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with Helian Qiguang at all and directly asked him why he was here.

Helian Qiguang wasn’t surprised by Du He’s reaction. He smiled humbly and said, “Dean Du, Junior came for the Wood Spirit Fruit this time.”

Hearing that, Du He’s sharp gaze instantly landed on Helian Qiguang.

Helian Qiguang seemed to not notice anything and continued, “The Deputy Dean told Junior Master that Junior Sister Lu has the Wood Spirit Fruit, so Junior came on behalf of Master.”

Helian Qiguang specially mentioned the Deputy Director, Kou Sun, obviously to make Du He worry.

In fact, when Du He heard that it was Kou Sun, he really had some misgivings.

After all, he had a good relationship with Kou Sun, and Kou Sun had helped him a lot.

Du He glanced at Helian Qiguang coldly and then looked at Lu Zijia with a questioning gaze.

Lu Zijia smiled disapprovingly, indicating that she was fine. Then, she said to Helian Qiguang, “Then, Senior Brother, how many Wood Spirit Fruits do you want?”

Helian Qiguang asked instead of answering, “Then, Junior Sister Lu, how many Wood Spirit Fruits do you still have?”

A dark glint flashed through Lu Zijia’s eyes quickly and she thought to herself, “Is this person going to take them all?”

Even though she thought so in her mind, she replied nonchalantly, “I only have 51 Wood Spirit Fruits left.”

Helian Qiguang frowned slightly. It was unknown if he thought that there were too few or if he was thinking about how many Wood Spirit Fruits were suitable.

After a while, Helian Qiguang finally said the amount he wanted. “Forty-five. How about Junior Sister Lu give me forty-five Wood Spirit Fruits?”

Hearing the number Helian Qiguang mentioned, the students of the Martial Arts Department present immediately exploded.

“Helian Qiguang, you’re asking for too much. You came to the Martial Arts Department to snatch it openly!”

“Right, Alchemist Lu only has 51 Wood Spirit Fruits. You asked for 45 as soon as you opened your mouth. Why don’t you go to heaven?”

“Fortunately, this is the Martial Arts Department. If it weren’t on our territory, I’m afraid he wouldn’t even want to leave a Wood Spirit Fruit for Alchemist Lu!”

“Helian Qiguang, don’t go too far. The Wood Spirit Fruits belong to Alchemist Lu. She can give you as much as she wants. Don’t go too far!”

“Right, this is the territory of the Martial Arts Department. It’s not your place to show off!”

Hearing the angry accusations of the students of the Martial Arts Department, Helian Qiguang was unmoved and still maintained a modest smile on his face.

“Junior Sister Lu was the one who asked me how many Wood Spirit Fruits I needed just now. I was just answering her question. Why are you so agitated?”

Helian Qiguang slowly glanced at the students. “Or are you afraid that Junior Sister Lu won’t be able to refine pills without the Wood Spirit Fruits?

“Actually, it’s fine if she can’t refine pills. Anyway, Junior Sister Lu is a student of the Martial Arts Department, right?”

“Helian Qiguang, you’re spouting nonsense. How can Alchemist Lu not know how to refine pills just because she doesn’t have the Wood Spirit Fruit? I think you don’t know how to refine pills!”

“Right, your alchemy skills are even worse than Junior Sister Lu’s! If there’s someone who really doesn’t know how to refine pills, this person will definitely be you and not Alchemist Lu!”

“Helian Qiguang, get lost if you want to fart. Don’t pollute the Martial Arts Department.”

“That’s right. Get lost! Our Martial Arts Department can’t afford a great Buddha like you!”
