Chapter 613: A Chance Encounter in the Study Room

"Damn, Fourth, you're finally back. I thought you wouldn't make it in time for the exams."

When Lingyun returned to the dormitory, the other three people in the room gathered around him at once.

"What is it, Boss? Are you surprised to see me?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow slightly.

"No, it's just, Fourth, where exactly did you go on leave? You were gone for nearly a month, and you even took four beauties with you." Huang Luo leaned in close to Lingyun and said with a wink.

"What do you mean I took four beauties with me?" Lingyun asked.

"Tsk tsk, Fourth, you really aren't being honest. As far as I know, when you took your leave, some other people took leave as well. Among them were four beauties: Chen Jing, Su Wanyue, Luo Yexi, and Shui Yunyue," Han Yu said with a smile. "And I recall that your relationship with these four beauties is quite extraordinary!"

"When did the three of you become so well-informed?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow slightly.

"It's not that we're well-informed, but those four beauties are all famous figures on the forum. Them taking leave at the same time caught the attention of quite a few people. Plus, I discovered that the time they took leave was exactly the same as yours," Han Yu said with a smile. "And, Fourth, you returned today, and Chen Jing, Su Wanyue, and Luo Yexi also returned today. If you say there's no connection between this, we absolutely won't believe it!"

"Believe it or not, the exams are tomorrow. Are the three of you ready?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Tomorrow... the exams..." Upon hearing Lingyun's words, his three roommates' faces turned pale.

"I remember, tomorrow is the Advanced Mathematics exam, right?"

"That's right."

"The professor setting the paper for Advanced Mathematics this time is the one known as the Devil Professor, Professor Qiu, right?"

"That's right."

Hearing Lingyun's two consecutive affirmative answers, Liu Feng's face turned pale instantly.

"It's over. I'm completely finished. I feel like my life has gone dark."

Seeing Liu Feng's state, a playful smile couldn't help but appear on Lingyun's face: "I say, Third, it's just Professor Qiu setting the paper, why are you so scared?"

"Fourth, you don't know. The Advanced Mathematics papers Professor Qiu sets are truly lethal. You also know that among all the subjects, the only one that leaves me completely helpless is Advanced Mathematics. Now, with the most terrifying Professor Qiu setting the questions, I'm probably done for in this subject," Liu Feng said pitifully.

"No, no, no, Fourth, I think you still have a chance to be saved!" Huang Luo thought of something, his eyes lighting up as he spoke.

"What chance to be saved! Wait, Boss, looking at you like that, you don't mean you want me to bribe the professor, do you? That is absolutely impossible!" Liu Feng jumped up at once.

"Smack—"

Liu Feng, who had just jumped up, was immediately slapped back down by Huang Luo: "When did I say I wanted you to do something unreliable like bribing a professor? What I meant by you still having a chance to be saved is because Fourth is back!"

"Fourth? Could it be..." Liu Feng's gaze circled Lingyun a few times, then he shook his head. "No, I can't do something like that!"

"Smack—"

Liu Feng received another glorious slap on the head: "I say, Third, can you stop always thinking in the wrong direction? Can't you think about the right path?"

"The right path? What right path?" Liu Feng asked, feeling a bit dizzy, clearly confused by Huang Luo.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Third, it's a waste that you always show off your IQ in front of us, yet you still haven't understood my meaning. Second, you understand, right?" Huang Luo's face was full of an expression of frustration at Liu Feng's lack of improvement.

"Uh, I know what Boss means," Han Yu said, his eyes lighting up upon hearing Huang Luo, and he spoke with a smile.

Watching Liu Feng still wearing a dazed expression, Han Yu felt completely helpless.

"Third, Boss means you still have one day left. While Fourth is here, hurry up and have him tutor you! You know Fourth's ability; maybe you really can be saved after all."

"Right, how could I have forgotten about this freak Fourth, who has the nickname 'Study God'? I remember that back then, our dorm's Advanced Mathematics grades were all pulled up by him single-handedly," Liu Feng muttered to himself, then cast his gaze toward Lingyun. "Fourth, for this Advanced Mathematics exam, you have to save me!"

Looking at Liu Feng's state, Lingyun couldn't help but shake his head.

"Grab your books, we're going to the study room!"

"Oh yeah! Fourth, you are my savior!"

Hearing Lingyun say this, Liu Feng knew exactly what Lingyun meant. He immediately packed his schoolbag quickly and followed Lingyun toward the study room.

Perhaps because the final exams were approaching, there were many more people in the study room. Lingyun and Liu Feng checked several study rooms in a row before they found empty seats.

"Let's begin." Lingyun opened the book directly and started explaining to Liu Feng.

"Alright, this is what will be tested for now. If you can understand everything I've marked out, you'll be able to pass this exam even if it's Professor Qiu who set the questions."

Lingyun handed the book to Liu Feng, then proceeded to write out a pile of problems on paper with a flurry of strokes.

"Take a look at these problems and try them. If there's anything you don't understand, ask me."

"Okay." Liu Feng took the draft paper Lingyun handed him and began to struggle with the work.

"Lingyun, long time no see." Just as Lingyun was looking at his book, a somewhat familiar voice came over.

Lingyun looked up and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. The people who appeared before him were Ji Haoyue and Ling Shuang.

Seeing the two of them holding hands, it was clear their relationship was extraordinary. However, one was a descendant of the Xuanyuan lineage, and the other was a descendant of the Shennong Lineage; it could be considered a well-matched pair.

"You're injured?" Lingyun's gaze landed on Ling Shuang, and he couldn't help but frown slightly, simultaneously deploying an Illusion Array to shroud the three of them.

Ling Shuang's face was somewhat pale, and her aura was unstable; she was clearly suffering from internal injuries.

"Some time ago, Shuang'er was attacked by a Ninja. Although the ancestor arrived in time to repel the enemy, he used a dagger coated with a sinister poison to wound Shuang'er. Although the ancestor used his own deep Inner Strength to suppress the power of that curse, he was unable to completely eradicate it," Ji Haoyue said with a frown. "The two of us came to Huaxia University hoping to use the righteous energy within Huaxia University to completely wear away that curse."

"Ninja? Daring to make a move in the Ji Family, they must be tired of living!" A trace of killing intent flashed in Lingyun's eyes. "Although the righteous energy in Huaxia University can wear away the curse in Ling Shuang's body, the time it takes is simply too long. During this period, the curse in her body will cause her immeasurable damage."

"This, we know that too, but the curse on Ling Shuang is simply too bizarre. We had no choice but to adopt this method." Ji Haoyue's eyes were full of helplessness.

"How about this, find a time to come to my Villa. I can remove this curse. At the same time, the time is ripe to remove the World-Extinguishing Blood Curse in your body; it is time to take action," Lingyun said.

"Your Villa..."

"Just have Jingjing bring the two of you over when the time comes," Lingyun said.

"Sir, your great kindness, Haoyue does not know how to repay it."

"As for repayment, let's talk about that later!" Lingyun waved his hand. "The two of you can go now; I still have to tutor my roommate here."

Seeing Lingyun issue a dismissal, Ji Haoyue nodded at Lingyun, then took Ling Shuang and left.
