Chapter 1243: 598 His Majesty the Richest Man in Free State, Uncle Loses His Temper [1 Update]_2 Chapter 1243: 598 His Majesty the Richest Man in Free State, Uncle Loses His Temper [1 Update]_2 After calling out three times, the door finally opened.

“Ah, it’s Xingci,” the prodigy Lu Xingci had a well-known reputation, and Dean Xu recognized him as well, “Come in, is there something your master needs my help with?”

Lu Xingci shook his head: “No, someone gave you a sachet that’s good for your health, you should wear it well.”

Dean Xu was taken aback and took the sachet.

As he grasped the sachet in his hand, a strong and unprecedented sense of familiarity surged in his heart.

He couldn’t help but tremble in his hand, “Who gave it?”

“It’s Sister Qingqing,” Lu Xingci lied with a straight face, “She has a healer’s heart and received the true teachings of my big brother.”

Dean Xu’s expression dimmed: “I see…”

He wanted to refuse, but there was always a voice inside him urging him to accept it, he hesitated for half a second, and eventually put it in his pocket.

Lu Xingci left the room, closed the door behind him, and sighed: “Dean Xu has taken too big a blow.”

Si Fuqing didn’t say anything; she turned and glanced at Dean Xu, who was staring at his computer in a daze, feeling as though a stone had settled in her heart, causing a feeling of suffocation.

She remembered that computer, it was the first one she had ever assembled.

Like the Master of Guigou, Dean Xu was a teacher who had imparted knowledge to her hands-on, even closer to her than her own master.

Lu Xingci suddenly said, “But this is also a good thing, because Dean Xu has been in a state of decline for four years, without any contributions, and the revenge organization has removed him from their hit list.”

Si Fuqing narrowed her eyes: “Indeed, it is a good thing. Do you know what rank you are on their hit list?”

“No idea,” Lu Xingci scratched his head, then his spirits fell, “Anyway, my brother ranks higher than me for sure, since he’s a doctor.”

For a revenge organization, a miracle doctor like Lu Xingheng must be won over or eliminated if he can’t be recruited.

Si Fuqing nodded slightly.

At this moment, a message came into her phone, from Yu Xiheng.

[Finished with your tasks?]
[Just finished!]
[Want to swing by my place?]
With a “ding,” he sent an address.

The address showed it was the Red Stone Mine.

The Red Stone Mine, one of the eight major mineral veins.

Before Si Fuqing had any reaction, the small white dog had already excitedly jumped up, biting her clothes with its teeth and dragging her outside.

Si Fuqing: “…”

What a defiant creature!

Getting more excited about money than she was.

Si Fuqing said goodbye to Lu Xingci and left the Intercontinental Research Institute.

Huo Yanxing’s car was parked in an alley outside the institute, ready to take her to the Red Stone Mine.

Many years ago, for a time, the eight major mineral veins of the Free State had no successors, because it was said that the keys to the veins were thrown somewhere in the corners of the Eternity Continent, probably among the Ten Deadly Lands.

In previous years, many people including the dean of Eternity Academy were looking for the keys to the veins.

Unfortunately, the higher the level of NPCs in “Eternal,” the more unpredictable and difficult to approach they become, with personalities even stronger than real people.

Unless they wish to, players can’t get any useful information out of them.

Aside from the gold vein, which could only be sold for money, the other mineral veins were each more precious than the last.

The Red Stone Mine was not the largest of the veins, but it was already much larger than any other vein Si Fuqing had seen.

The vein’s walls were embedded with various types of red stones, and the small white dog drooled at the sight, with green light already shining from its purple beast pupils.

It drew back its hind legs, ready to pounce, but was unable to move just when it was about to leap towards the stones.

Si Fuqing picked it up with one hand: “Defiant creature! Don’t you only eat gold?”

The small white dog proudly puffed out its tiny chest, howling twice.

It indicated that the lowest quality of its food couldn’t be worse than gold, but these stones were clearly of a higher grade, capable of replenishing more energy.

“Dream on,” Si Fuqing laughed coldly, “The stone you want to eat could sell for several hundred thousand in the Free State, you’re only allowed to eat gold.”

The small white dog’s eyes brimmed with tears.

It looked towards Yu Xiheng but received no response.

Si Fuqing squatted down, picking up a piece of paper from the ground: “Brother Nine, what is this?”

“Hm?” Yu Xiheng turned his head, saw the list in Si Fuqing’s hands, “This is the latest list of debtors.”

Si Fuqing fell silent upon seeing the list bearing over a hundred names.

She no longer wanted to calculate how much this list was worth.

Once again, tears of poverty streamed down from the corners of her eyes.

No wonder even her master wanted to get the keys to the Eight Great Mines, this was practically half of the Free State’s wealth.

Si Fuqing looked up, accusing him: “I hate you.”

“And what’s the reason for that?”

“You have too much money, I despise the rich!”

Yu Xiheng’s eyebrows twitched slightly, as he passed an ID card: “No worries, my lady is welcome any time.”

The small white dog leaped up, immediately snatching the card and then stuffed it into Si Fuqing’s pocket.

Si Fuqing: “…”

Truly a defiant creature.

**
There’s only one day left until the end of the Inner Court assessment, and the rankings at this time were unlikely to change.

Nian Yi’an was still at rank 49, secure yet trailing, barely scraping through.

In Yaonian was waiting in a hotel arranged by the Inner Court.

He hadn’t slept for two days and two nights, but this was nothing for someone like him who was an S-class evolved being.

In Yaonian fixated his gaze on the large screen.

“Bang!”

At this moment, the door was burst open.

The Yan Family’s butler walked in, scanning the room, and when he saw In Yaonian was alone, his expression instantly turned contemptuous.

“Mr. In, I understand?” the butler nodded, “Firstly, let me introduce myself. I am the Yan Family’s butler. The Yan Family needs an Inner Court placement, which the Huo family also requests. We hope you could be sensible and withdraw on your own, so that we don’t have to take action.”

In Yaonian spoke coldly: “Get out.”

The butler stepped forward, pulling out a card: “Mr. In, there are ten million in Free State currency in this card, you really should not be obstinate.”

In Yaonian did not take it: “I said, get out!”

Suddenly, an overwhelming power enveloped the entire room.
