Chapter 251: Chapter 251
Qian Qi looked down and sure enough, she saw the figure of Tang Yunde, and not only that, she also saw a familiar face. Read complete version only at novel★fire.net
"Sheng Qing?" Qian Qi peeked out her small head, surprised, "Why is she here too?"
Sikong Wang glanced at Sheng Qing, "She’s sort of like the honorary granddaughter of the Skill Department dean. I guess Fan Jinghai wants to get her an A-level attribute for self-defense? But the boss of an A-level dungeon only refreshes once every five years, those already conquered A-level dungeons have long been reserved."
These rare resources are reserved for distribution among the upper echelon, and with Fan Jinghai’s status, to get Sheng Qing an A-level attribute, he could only aim for an unconquered A-level dungeon.
"Can she outcompete others?" Qian Qi asked curiously.
"She’s a B-level Awakener but also a dual element Awakeners. If she’s willing to join a family or an association, naturally, someone will fight for her." Sikong Wang pondered, "I guess that’s how Fan Jinghai sees it too. He’s someone who prefers the traditional ways, and excellent students at the Awakener University usually join a family for better perks, so he might let Sheng Qing choose for herself."
Qian Qi nodded and landed the hovercar on the ground.
When Sikong Lin and others got off the car, people from the Dungeon Association, including Tang Yunde, turned their attention to them.
Upon seeing Qian Qi, Tang Yunde’s expression became strange, "Why is she here?"
"Why is she here?" Fan Jinghai mumbled simultaneously, then realizing they both said the same thing, they couldn’t help but exclaim in unison, "Old Tang (Old Fan), you know her well?"
"Not particularly well, but whenever she appears..." Tang Yunde rubbed his chin, "I get this illusion that the dungeon becomes easy to conquer."
"I’m not familiar with her either, just that she’s... too restless." Fan Jinghai remembered the trouble she caused on campus and in dungeons and couldn’t help but frown his old face, "Every time it’s a big fuss, people might think she is..."
"Is what?" Qian Qi’s small head suddenly popped up between them, grinning, "Dean Fan, don’t talk behind my back if you’re saying good things about me, say it to my face, I love to hear it!"
Could you walk without making a sound?
"Ahem, Qian, what brings you here?" Fan Jinghai cleared his throat, assuming the demeanor of a dean.
"I came to hear what good things you have to say about me." Qian Qi asked earnestly.
"..." Fan Jinghai twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, can’t she feel right unless she teases me a bit? "I mean you’re very assertive, have the demeanor of a general, and will surely have a bright future!"
"Hiss—" Qian Qi looked surprised and, moved, she patted him on the shoulder, and just when Fan Jinghai thought she would say thank you for the compliment, she said very seriously, "Great minds think alike, Dean Fan, you have a good eye, you too, will surely have a bright future!"
Stop talking to me, please, I’m begging you!
"Little Qian, are you also going into the A-level dungeon?" As the two lapsed into silence, Tang Yunde chimed in.
He remembered guessing on Fucheng Full Moon Street last time whether she would attempt a B-level dungeon next, but he didn’t expect her to skip a level and aim for the A-level one now?
"Of course..." Under Tang Yunde’s gradually expectant gaze, Qian Qi stated matter-of-factly, "Not going. I’m just a little nobody, how dare I enter an A-level dungeon, that’s courting death, isn’t it? Chairman Tang, if you keep asking such weird questions, I’ll seriously doubt if it’s time for you to retire. By the way, have you considered the suggestion I made last time? You were still Mediterranean last time, now you’re bald, you can’t deny aging, how about..."
Tang Yunde immediately stepped back two steps, "I’ve got something to attend to, gotta go!"
After speaking, Tang Yunde, an old man, retreated with the most nimble steps of his life and fled.
"Considering what?" Fan Jinghai couldn’t help but gossip.
"Considering stepping down and letting me take over as Chairman." Qian Qi coldly glanced at Fan Jinghai.
You not only covet the dean position but also the Dungeon Association Chairman position???
"Dean Fan." Sikong Lin approached Fan Jinghai, and upon reaching the battlefield, he restored his dignified and commanding aura, formally greeting Fan Jinghai.
"Are you guys entering the dungeon?" Fan Jinghai glanced at Su Ang and Sikong Lin.
"These kids won’t go in." Sikong Lin said indifferently, "Just here to gain some insight."
Fan Jinghai looked at Sikong Wang, he knew this child, among the Seven Great Families’ heirs, he was the weakest, with the strength of only having a D-level Contracted Beast, only Su Ang was willing to interact with him, the others looked down on him.
With Shangguan Qing already assumed dead, there has long been speculation that the Sikong family would be the first to withdraw from the Seven Great Families.
As he was thinking, suddenly a speed-type awakened warrior ran to the opposite Gong family side, shouting loudly, "Found it! A-level dungeon found!"
Everyone immediately turned their heads, and from the hovercar stopped by the Gong family, a middle-aged man in a suit with a very shrewd appearance got out, face full of joy, "Send someone to guard the dungeon entrance! I’m heading over now!"
"Didn’t expect it to be found so fast this time." Fan Jinghai suggested, "Let’s go, head over to see how things are?"
Qian Qi hadn’t seen an A-level dungeon before, feeling curious, she followed everyone as they drove to the location of the A-level dungeon.
Just in case, Qian Qi gave the driving seat to Sikong Wang, sat in the back, layered herself in Defense Armor, and slung her more than one-meter-tall travel backpack on her back.
This travel pack was purchased at a great cost, and it’s still painful to think about!
When they arrived at the A-level dungeon, Qian Qi found its black hole entrance was ten times larger than a C-level dungeon; it hovered over a massive crater, just looking at the size of the crater and the exhausted state of the earth element volunteer Awakeners nearby, it was clear they had likely dug for days and nights without rest.
"I’ll go check over there." Sikong Lin raised his head, signaling towards the Si Family Army that had already assembled over there, he needed to give them some instructions before entering the dungeon.
Sikong Wang nodded, "Then I’ll stay here with these two first."
The Si Family Army somewhat looked down on him, and he didn’t want to go over and humiliate himself.
At the dungeon entrance, Tang Yunde raised his hand, signaling his subordinates to enter the dungeon with wireless equipment on their backs, and while debugging to confirm whether the dungeon could connect to the internet, several other families came with their privately nurtured troops upon hearing the news.
Qian Qi watched for a while, found it boring, and was about to leave when suddenly a yellow-clad youth who looked to be around Sikong Wang’s age walked over and upon seeing Sikong Wang, mocked aloud, "Oh, oh, oh, who is it? Isn’t it the Sikong family’s useless little white dog? How could your dad bear to let you out?"
Sikong Wang chuckled lightly, not intending to take it seriously with the other party.
Seeing him so uninterested, the yellow-clad youth rolled his eyes, spotted Qian Qi, and exaggeratedly clutched his stomach, bending over in laughter, "Hahaha, Sikong Wang, is this the useless friend you finally found? A shorty carrying a backpack even taller than him hahaha—same as a turtle hiding in its shell!"
About to depart, Qian Qi suddenly brought into focus: ???
