Chapter 170: The Exchange Student from Abroad

The next day, Lingyun went to the Academic Affairs Office to cancel his leave, and afterwards, he returned to his class to attend lessons.

Just as Lingyun was waiting for the instructor to arrive for class, Huang Luo, who was sitting beside him, leaned in quietly: "Hey, Lingyun, did you see the message in the class group chat?"

"Message in the class group chat?" Lingyun couldn't help but be stunned. At the beginning of the semester, the class had indeed set up a group chat, but because he had just returned from the Sword Art Online world yesterday, he hadn't checked for any messages in the group.

"I told you, Fourth Brother just got back. With his personality, how could he possibly check the class group chat the first chance he got!" Liu Feng, who was on the side, said with a smile.

Just as Lingyun intended to take out his phone to see what exactly had happened, Han Yu spoke up with a smile: "Fourth Brother, no need to look. It's just that two transfer students from abroad are coming to our class!"

"From abroad, transfer students?" Lingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, unable to help but complain inwardly. "It's already university now, why are we still doing this transfer student routine!"

Just as Lingyun was pondering this, their class counselor walked in from outside the door. Following behind him were two students, one male and one female.

"Students, these two are your new classmates. One is William Thomas, and the other is Daisy Isabelle."

"These two, they aren't simple!" Lingyun's gaze swept over the two, his eyebrows arching slightly.

Although they were hiding it very deeply, Lingyun still sensed a not-so-weak power from them. In Lingyun's perception, this power was a type of Light Power.

"This power is actually quite similar to the bird-men I've encountered in some worlds before. Could it be that the Holy See on Earth is the same sort of trash as the Holy See in other worlds?" Lingyun watched the two as they introduced themselves, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. "I hope you don't cause trouble in this place; after all, this is the center of Huaxia!"

After the two finished introducing themselves, people began to approach them to talk; after all, they were quite interested in these two transfer students from abroad. It could be seen that both William and Daisy had received a good upbringing. Although their Chinese pronunciation wasn't very accurate, they still responded to the topics of those present with appropriate smiles.

Lingyun quietly looked toward Chen Jing's direction and sent a glance her way. Chen Jing nodded slightly at Lingyun, then continued to lower her head to read. Lingyun also withdrew his gaze to prevent any abnormalities from being detected by these two transfer students with unclear intentions. After all, ever since these two transfer students entered the classroom, they had been silently scanning everyone present. The tacit understanding between the two no longer needed words; Chen Jing already knew Lingyun's meaning, and she would naturally see it through.

While chatting with people in the class, Daisy and William were also quietly sizing up the people in the room. Chen Jing was their primary focus; after all, Chen Jing was quite famous in their intelligence network. As for Lingyun, someone who looked no different from an ordinary person, they skipped over him directly.

Lingyun noticed their gazes landing on Chen Jing from time to time, and a playful light flashed in his eyes. Chen Jing was no pushover; they thought their gazes were very Concealment, but to someone with as keen senses as Chen Jing, this was no different from sizing her up openly.

Feeling the gazes that the two landed on her from time to time, Chen Jing frowned slightly. If it had been a guess before, it was a certainty now. These two people coming to Huaxia University was definitely not a simple matter. At the thought that the other party might cause trouble in this sacred place in the hearts of Huaxia students, Chen Jing's impression of them dropped instantly.

Just as Chen Jing was pondering the possible intentions of these two in her heart, William Thomas suddenly approached Chen Jing, wearing a proper smile, and spoke in somewhat broken Chinese: "Nice to meet you, beautiful lady. May I have the honor of knowing your name?"

If it were an average girl, facing the inquiry of such a suave prince, nine times out of ten she would be so charmed she wouldn't know north from south, and would then tell the other party her name. However, who was Chen Jing? She would naturally not be easily fooled by such little tricks.

"My name is Chen Jing. Nice to meet you!" Her face wore a formulaic smile as she replied softly. After saying this, she stopped speaking and lowered her head to continue reading her book.

Seeing that the new transfer student had targeted the department beauty of their class the moment he arrived, the boys present were all a bit unhappy. How could such a top-tier beauty be snatched away by this foreign guy?

Consequently, without any prior coordination, the boys in the room swarmed toward William's direction, easily engulfing this foreign boy. Faced with this situation, William couldn't help but frown, but out of consideration that Chen Jing was still here, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.

Daisy, on the side, watched William's predicament and couldn't help but curse William in her heart for being far too impatient; wouldn't doing this alert the other party? However, she did not know that the moment the two of them entered this class, they had already alerted Lingyun and Chen Jing.

After school, Chen Jing quietly gave Lingyun a look, then left the classroom. Upon receiving Chen Jing's signal, Lingyun also quietly left the classroom. Seeing Chen Jing leave, Daisy and William exchanged a glance, then also left the classroom.

In a Villa, Daisy sat on a high-end sofa, while William stood before her, looking just like her subordinate.

"William, your behavior today was far too rash. It's very easy for people to see flaws this way!" Daisy said with a frown. "Looking at Chen Jing, I'm afraid she has already become suspicious of us. You must know, we obtained this current identity only after the Holy See went to great lengths. If you delay the Pope's affairs because of your behavior, you should know what the consequences will be!"

"It is my fault, Saintess." William lowered his head; he also knew he had been a bit too impatient.

William had his own plans for doing this; since he was young, he had possessed an inexplicable attraction toward the opposite sex. Before meeting Chen Jing, no girl had been able to resist his charm ability. By using this ability to obtain what he wanted from their mouths or hands, this behavior had always been foolproof for him. But now, he had encountered someone who could completely immunize herself against his constitution, causing his plan to die in the cradle right at the start.

"Forget it. The Pope learned through the Great Prophecy that to find the radiance left behind in this world by the Archangel Michael, one must go through this woman. Many people are looking for this item now, and I don't want you to stir up any trouble for me!" Daisy looked at William and said coldly.

"I understand, Saintess!" William's head lowered even further, and his right hand quietly clenched tight.

"Alright, alright, get lost!" Daisy waved her hand. "Really, looking at you makes me feel like an eyesore."

"This subordinate takes his leave!" The fist in William's hand tightened further, but he still responded, then turned and left the room.

Walking outside the Villa, William looked at the luxurious building, a flash of hateful light in his eyes: "I have waited for this day for a long time. Just wait, I will return all of this back to you. Those people—I won't let a single one of them go!"
