Chapter 678: A Bit of Gossip

However, as if he was fixing an IV drip for Bai Jiacao and looking for her vein. But after slapping the back of Bai Jiacao’s hand for a long time, the X-shaped eye still did not appear.

By the looks of it, the Night Demon Blood was still hibernating in his sister’s body.

This might be a good thing.

If Meng Chao had another year or so and when his power, as well as forces of power, grew stronger, even if his sister turned into the Dark Witch, he did not need to fear.

Of course, he could not be careless even now.

After all, based on his memories and what A’Ji told him, there was a secret organization in Dragon City that was researching the secrets of the X-shaped eye.

Some of the X-shaped eye bearers that entered spirit energy deviation and subsequently went crazy even hunt other X-shaped eye bearers as a goal.

Meng Chao did not want his sister to end up in the hands of those maniacs.

“B-Big Brother?” Bai Jiacao waved her hand in front of Meng Chao. “What’s wrong? Don’t scare me!

“Nothing’s wrong.” Meng Chao stopped his train of thought and sized up Bai Jiacao. “Let’s end our fight here. How are you feeling? Are you hurt?”

“Of course I’m hurting! Look, my limbs are swollen!” Bai Jiacao pouted. In great puzzlement, she stared at Meng Chao and mumbled, “It’s strange. The teachers in my school tell me that my talent is really rare, and the cultivation resources I got are one hundred times more than yours in the past. I’ve been training really hard as well, to the point that I make my classmates cry!

“So why can’t I win against you? It doesn’t make sense!”

The girl felt anxious.

If this continued, just how long would she need to finally stomp on her older brother?

Meng Chao smiled.

“It’s best if you don’t aim too high and just be realistic.” He patted his sister’s shoulder and earnestly said, “You have to find a suitable goal to pursue. Don’t compare yourself to me, otherwise, you’ll only be stomped on the ground and feel defeated. Your confidence will shatter as well.”

“…” Bai Jiacao gritted her teeth and wanted to bite her brother’s hand on her shoulder.

“Speaking of which, your strength is indeed far greater than normal high school students. I heard that you’ve already finished learning all the classes for third-year high school students. In fact, you’ve chosen to learn some of the lessons lowerclassmen in university learn. Your test results are also pretty good, right?” Meng Chao pondered over his words and said, “If you continue staying in high school, you’ll just be wasting your time. Have you ever thought about taking the national college examination this year?”

To recruit able people and make sure that they did not keep to a rigid system, Dragon City did not set an age limit to the national college examination.

As long as they cleared the three stages before the national college examination, everyone had the chance to join the national college examination.

Besides, each famous university had its own system to recruit special students so that it could directly recruit talented people.

Wu Wu of Agricultural University’s monster controller course, Shao Jianqing of the military school’s heroic spirit course, and the others were all specially recruited students.

His sister had the Night Demon Blood, she was absolutely not any weaker than Wu Wu and Shao Jianqing.

Since they were definitely going to cross Monster Mountain Range next year to explore the world outside, and the ultimate war that would rage through the Other War was going to begin in between three to five years, Meng Chao still hoped that his sister could grow up soon. She might be unable to help him, but he hoped that she would at least have the power to protect herself and their parents.

“Take the national college examination beforehand?” Bai Jiacao’s eyes lit up. She clapped excitedly, “Of course that’d be great! I don’t want to play house with my high school classmates anymore. All of them can’t fight, and they fall to the ground the moment I touch them. There’s no meaning to fighting against them. The legendary universities are the ones that suit me! Besides, some time ago, the teachers in school asked me whether I want to join some special competitions to try and get the chance to become a specially recruited student!”

“Is that so?” Meng Chao nodded. “If you can become a specially recruited student, that would be for the best. So? Have you thought about what university you want to join? I can help you ask around if you want to go to Agricultural University’s martial arts course. Of course, they won’t lower the standards for specially recruited students, but I believe that it shouldn’t be a problem for you.”

“Hmph, I don’t need anyone lowering their standards for me. Even if they double it, I won’t be afraid,” Bai Jiacao declared confidently, “But I don’t want to get into Agricultural University’s martial arts course. I want to get into Dragon City University’s martial arts course!”

“Huh?” Meng Chao scratched his head. “Why? Over the past two years, Agricultural University’s martial arts course has been developing really quickly, and the Ultimate Style and Beast Soul Style are enhancing each other’s brilliance. It’s not at all weaker than Agricultural University’s martial arts course!”

“I know, but I don’t like the Ultimate Style. I can’t deliver a fatal blow after jumping around the monsters for a long time. It’s like giving them a massage, and that’s too boring.” Bai Jiacao’s eyes shone, and she said, “I prefer the Overkill Style more. The killing moves, ultimate moves, secret techniques are so dazzling that it’s ridiculous, and the electricity effects are absolutely beautiful! Ah, that’s what I call supernatural abilities!”

Meng Chao found himself speechless.

He did not expect that his school of martial arts would be regarded with disdain by his sister.

But that was good too.

No matter what, Dragon City University’s martial arts course had been the strongest course over the past twenty years. There were so many powerful people around that they were like mushrooms after rain. There were already a few Deity Realm superhumans among the lecturers, and the graduates were all in the most powerful industries in Dragon City.

If his sister really got into Dragon City University’s martial arts course, she would have this mighty tree behind her. Also, even if some secret organization or crazy X-shaped eye bearer noticed the Night Demon Blood in her, they would consider their actions first before they made a move. Dragon City University would not let them do whatever they wanted either.

Even though Agricultural University’s martial arts course and Dragon City University’s martial arts course were rivals, Meng Chao had a wide circle of acquaintances, and he might have friends in Dragon City University’s martial arts course among his connections.

“Sure, then you’ll have to train hard over this period of time for your final push,” Meng Chao told Bai Jiacao. “I’ll ask around for the conditions of Dragon City University’s martial arts course.”

“Who are you going to ask? Big Sis Lu Siya?” Bai Jiacao’s eyes sparkled, and her voice suddenly became really sweet. She grabbed Meng Chao’s elbow and swung it. “Big Brother, let me ask you a question.”

Alarm bells instantly blared in Meng Chao’s mind. He frowned and said, “You’ve already asked me a lot of stuff today.”

“The problem is, you didn’t tell me a single thing!” Bai Jiacao said. “Don’t worry, I won’t ask you for the details regarding the battle in the lair anymore. I know that there are laws in the Abnormal Beast Research Department, and I don’t care about hearing them. I just want to ask you something that will absolutely not break any confidentiality rules.”

The alarm bells were still ringing noisily in Meng Chao’s head. “You can ask, but I might not say anything. Go on.”

“Alright, then I’m asking.” Bai Jiacao put on a mysterious expression and drew closer to Meng Chao’s ear to ask, “Is Big Sis Lu Siya going to be my sister-in-law?”

Meng Chao immediately choked on his saliva. “What the heck is that question?! Don’t you think you’re butting your nose a little too much into my problems, considering you’re a kid?!”

“I’m not the one who wants to know, it’s Mom who asked me to ask you.” Bai Jiacao put on an innocent face and said in a really aggrieved manner, “Mom wants to understand the relationship between you and Big Sis Lu Siya a long time ago, but she always felt embarrassed to ask, so she told me to look for a chance to ask you.

“Mom also mentioned that you’re already in your twenties, and you’re going to graduate from university soon. You might not have grand achievements under your belt yet, but you have made some achievements and gained some success, it’s about time you start seriously considering your future.

“After all, Dragon Citizens don’t live like those on Earth and only get married and have kids when they’re in their thirties, am I right? Our population is too small, so we must get married and have kids quickly so that we can enlarge our population and defend our civilization!”

“Enough, I know what Mom wants to say, you don’t have to make it sound so grand.” Meng Chao rubbed his nose bridge and noticed that he made a mistake.

He should not have introduced Lu Siya to his family.

But he had no choice.

Sky Pillar Corporation and Lu Siya had personally supported Superstar when it merged with Prosperous and Spirit Creation Creatures, and it also helped the company land a number of major deals.

His dad was the boss in name for Superstar, so it was impossible for him to not be acquainted with Lu Siya.

Qin Hu was the second-largest shareholder of Superstar, and he was also familiar with Lu Siya.

Besides, Meng Chao had been worried that something would happen to his family when he went out to train in the wild, so he also asked Lu Siya to take care of them.

Aside from that, Lu Siya was the Abnormal Beast Research Department’s ace investigator. Even though she had her own apartment outside, she still had a bachelor’s apartment in the apartment complex for the staff members. She was just two blocks away from Meng Chao’s family.

The ambitious Queen Bee bound herself tightly together with Meng Chao to obtain Meng Chao’s support and the huge market consisting of poor people behind Meng Chao when she was creating her image.

She often went to Meng Chao’s apartment to visit them, and she was now friends with his father, mother, and Bai Jiacao. To Lu Siya, this was nothing difficult.

“Big Brother, this isn’t something confidential, right? Honestly, I quite like Big Sis Lu Siya,” Bai Jiacao said, “Even though she’s a few years older than you, that isn’t a major problem. In any case, you’re really dark now, and you look old. When you stand together, you look really suited to each other!”

“You like Lu Siya?” Meng Chao thought that people usually did not like Lu Siya’s aggressive and invasive mannerisms, but Lu Siya was a really good actor, and she gave off a really convincing as well as a vivid image as the model superhuman.

Besides, one of them was the Queen Bee, and the other was the Dark Witch. They might really be drawn to each other due to common interests.

…Wait.

“What do you mean, I’m dark and look old?!” Meng Chao flicked Bai Jiacao’s head. “Stop letting your imagination run wild. Big Sis Ya and I are just business partners and the best partners for cultivation. When we fight against monsters, we’re also good friends and saved each other dozens of times, that’s all!”

“Is that so?” Bai Jiacao practically had the words, “You’re lying, and I don’t believe you” stamped on her face. “Isn’t Big Sis Lu Siya good? Why don’t you like her?”

“Of course she’s good. It’s just that…” Meng Chao did not know how he should explain things. “Our enemies are not gone yet, so why should I think about creating a family? Your big brother is someone who is removed from such base interests, and I don’t have time to get into a relationship right now. I just want to pour all my passion and energy into the grandest job in the world, and that’s to fight for Earth’s civilization. It’s a noble profession, do you understand?”

“Nope.” Bai Jiacao thought about this for a long time, then came to an understanding. “I get it now. You don’t like strong women like Big Sis Lu Siya, and like girls who are gentler and more delicate, right? Like that girl who came to our house that day, Ms. Su Mulian?”
