Chapter 307: Qin Ye's Outrageous Desire

Thus, he knew what he was good at, and where his limitations lay. He would readily steer clear of any full-on confrontations that involved him personally, because he knew that his true strength lies in working in the shadows, and orchestrating scenarios clandestinely.

Thus, Qin Ye had mulled extensively over how each step of Hell’s development should proceed. His present approach was something that he had also already decided upon, except that he had in this instance raised it for Arthis’ comments and consideration.

Arthis stared at him as though she had just seen a ghost, “The new Hell is only at the level of a town, and you’re already thinking of establishing a new city outside? Don’t you think you’re putting the cart before the horse?”

Arthis grew taciturn, and her eyes appeared to glaze over as though she were deep in thought.

Qin Ye drew a deep breath, “Even though I don’t have the capacity to manage the establishment of several satellite cities for now, a single one… would still be within control. Naturally, everything would only be firmed up after the imperial court meeting at the end of the year.”

Silence.

Qin Ye sneered, “What do you think Oda Nobunaga is good for?”

A cold glint flashed across the depths of his eyes, “Then I’ll kill them again and again, until none dares to rise up against us again!”

The rest of the day passed quickly, and the next day arrived in the blink of an eye.

Yet as soon as he did, he saw a startling scene.

It was now noontime. The academy’s opening ceremony was slated to take place in the evening at the grand auditorium. Thus, most of the students had already arrived back in the academy, and the school’s basketball court was filled with people. Incidentally, this was also the reason why he saw a rather incongruous image.

The idiot had actually scooched over to a seat close by with a silly smile on his face, where a pretty lady of approximately 1.7m in height handed him a bottle of water!

TRAITOR!

Dogballs Qin stared at the incredulous sight with a fiery gaze in his eyes. If one were nearby, he might even have heard something snap within Qin Ye. Bloody hell… Here I was, slogging my ass away during the summer holidays, while you’re there frolicking away in the merriments of life?! Whatever happened to the promise we made to forever be angels to the other?! Are you shirking your responsibility just like that? No… I’m not bothered by the fact that you’re no longer single… What I’m bothered by is the fact that you’ve gotten yourself hitched while I’m still single!!!

Unfortunately… his innards didn’t erode.

Damn these lovebirds! I hope they fall to their death!

“You’ve got a rather twisted expression on your face…” Qin Ye turned the corner and bumped into Su Feng. Glaring at Su Feng with a lingering, unkind expression on his face, he responded with gritted teeth, “There’s a traitor among us.”

“Hang on right there… Wallflower?! Who gave him that title?! How come I was never consulted on this?!” Qin Ye refuted adamantly.

Which idiots were the ones who came up with this ranking system anyway?!

As an instructor, does it even make sense that you would care about such nonsense and turn a blind eye to what’s truly of importance, such as the teaching credits and lesson plans?

On the other hand, Su Feng was stunned by how quickly Qin Ye had snatched the phone away from his hands, and even more so by how incongruous it was when Qin Ye verbally dismissed the ranking system, yet continued to have a grotesquely twisted expression on his face…

The mere fact that he had gotten a message wasn’t important. What was important was the person who had sent it. It was Zhou Xianlong.

“What’s going on?” Qin Ye frowned, “Has Faculty Head Zhou just reached menopause? I didn’t see him all summer. Not even Principal Xu was around either. Are they thinking of checking on our lesson plans?”

He glanced around, and then lowered his voice to a hush, “I’ve heard some news on the grapevine. Apparently, something big has been brewing over the last few months or so.”

The first thing that struck him was that there probably wasn’t anything larger than the battle at the Strait of Tsushima taking place over the last few months. The mortal realm might be unable to see Emissaries, but there was simply no way of concealing Justice Bao’s authority, as well as the overbearing might of the Book of Life and Death!

“What is it?” Qin Ye asked softly.

Qin Ye nodded his head. He had seen the map of supernatural activity, and there were three large areas where the dots were abnormally red. This was the basis for his conjecture that each dot represented the area of activity of one of the daolords!

Qin Ye listened calmly, but his palms were already dripping with sweat.

The battle at the Strait of Tsushima must have stirred one of the daolords to action. After all… the three eastern provinces are no more than a stone’s throw away from the Strait of Tsushima!

“How did you learn of these things?” Qin Ye gritted his teeth, “The school embargoes such information in an attempt to create a conducive environment for learning. Yet you’ve even managed to learn of our principal’s whereabouts?”

Would he be able to track me down to the City of Salvation?

“Have you forgotten that I’m from the SRC as well? And I’m on a completely different level from that idiot Local Bully.” Su Feng paused for a moment, “I’m almost certain that they will be updating everyone on this situation this afternoon. Just wait and see. If my source of information is accurate, then it is likely that the academy will be rolling out a completely different syllabus for the upcoming semester… Alright, that’s enough fair warning for now. Let’s see what the big boss says this afternoon.”

“Damn… what the hell is going on…” He sighed and finally got some shuteye till 2.30 p.m. Then, he made his way to the tiered lecture hall, only to discover that he was one of the first to have arrived.

He observed them silently. Every single person had a somber expression on their faces. Tao Ran waved at him and forced a contrived smile to his face, “Little Qin, did your academic exchange to Eastsea go well? Did you encounter any major incident or hiccup over there?”

“Nothing. Just asking.” Tao Ran smiled, before settling back into his seat together with the rest of the leaders of the academy in silence.

“Scram!” Qin Ye pointed to the seats around him, “These seats are only for single dogs. Not for you!”

He was the only one who remained seated where he was.

A sudden wave of awkwardness filled the entire lecture hall.
