Chapter 450: Leaflets

Operation Hunt the Goose.

It was a somewhat ridiculous name, yet no one laughed; even Lu Jinci, who was about to participate in this plan, wore a grave expression, for he knew just how formidable this "Big White Goose" sounded.

Although he had never truly crossed blades with her, a Ninth-Grade Light Resonance was enough to suppress all dissent.

"In this plan, we need to do one thing."

Guo Jiufeng tapped his fingers lightly on the table and smiled: "I want to make our Saint Mingwang Academy a priority target for Jiang Qing'e. Hmm, to put it simply, I want her to see Lu Jinci after entering the inner circle and immediately want to come over and eliminate him."

"Because if that happens, some plans will be easier to implement."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinci looked utterly helpless. Was he really that annoying?

"Vice Dean, I haven't provoked her, why is she targeting me like this?"

Guo Jiufeng chuckled and said: "If you haven't provoked her, then go provoke her."

Lu Jinci looked troubled: "I'm not good at this, and she might not even pay attention to me; I might not even get to see her."

Guo Jiufeng smiled: "I wasn't counting on you for that."

He then looked at Jing Taixu beside him and said: "Shall we leave this task to you?"

Jing Taixu nodded with a somewhat helpless smile and said: "Since it is a task assigned by the academy, I will take it and give it a try. Though, come to think of it, I do truly want to meet her."

"Do your best. In any case, it's just to make the plan easier to implement. If it works, naturally that's good; if it doesn't, there are other paths."

"Time is tight, go now."

"Oh, and take Lu Jinci with you; after all, he still needs to show his face." Guo Jiufeng waved his hand.

Thus, Jing Taixu and Lu Jinci both accepted the order and walked down from the top floor of the tower.

"Junior Brother Jing, what are we going to do?" Lu Jinci asked with some confusion while walking downstairs.

Jing Taixu smiled and said: "In a moment, you will come with me to the Saint Xuanxing Academy tower and look for Jiang Qing'e directly."

"Will she pay attention to us?" Lu Jinci asked.

"That is why I plan to fan the flames first."

Jing Taixu seemed well-prepared; he took a stack of paper directly from his spatial sphere and handed a page to Lu Jinci. When the latter took it and looked, he was instantly dumbfounded.

At the very top of the page, striking red characters were written.

"Shocking Revelation!"

"It is rumored that Jing Taixu of Saint Mingwang Academy once had deep ties with Jiang Qing'e of Saint Xuanxing Academy, and their fathers had intended for the two to marry in their early years!"

Lu Jinci looked at the information on it and said speechlessly: "Junior Brother Jing, isn't this a bit too unrealistic?"

"It was only meant to attract attention and stir up some waves. Right now, there are many scouts from various academies gathered outside, and there are all sorts of fake news. Besides, I'm not completely talking nonsense. Before participating in the Holy Grail War this time, my father did tell me that he once knew Li Taixuan of the Great Xia, and after learning that he had an extremely outstanding female disciple, he even wrote a letter expressing his desire for a marriage alliance. But later, they never replied at all, so clearly, the matter fell through." Jing Taixu said with a smile.

"You want to spread this news?" Lu Jinci asked.

Jing Taixu nodded and said: "Jiang Qing'e will inevitably receive these rumors. When that time comes, I will take you to Saint Xuanxing Academy to ask to see her. I think, under such circumstances, she should see us. And as long as she remembers our Saint Mingwang Academy, our mission will be considered complete."

Lu Jinci glanced at him and said: "Why do I feel like you're the one who wants to see her?"

Jing Taixu was startled, then smiled candidly: "A fair lady is a gentleman's desire. A girl as outstanding as Jiang Qing'e, and one who has such ties to me, it's not strange that I would want to see her."

"But this meeting of yours doesn't seem very likable." Lu Jinci said.

"Can't be helped, it's the academy's mission... and sometimes a not-so-friendly first meeting isn't necessarily a bad thing. At the very least, she will remember me firmly, and if that's the case, there will be opportunities in the future." Jing Taixu said with a smile.

Lu Jinci sighed: "Truly experienced. You live up to being the romantic heartthrob who stirred up ten girlfriends in just one year of entering the academy."

"You flatter me."

Jing Taixu waved his hand modestly, then summoned a first-star grade student, handed the papers in his hand to him, and simultaneously slipped him five 100,000-denomination Gold Dragon notes, instructing: "Go out quietly, conceal your identity, and find some unrelated people to spread these things."

"You're just burying your head to steal the bell, aren't you?" Lu Jinci said speechlessly.

"Surface appearances still need to be done properly." Jing Taixu smiled.

The male first-star grade student heard this and hurriedly took the order and left.

"Alright, next we just wait for the news to reach Jiang Qing'e's ears, and then we'll set off." Jing Taixu said.

Lu Jinci could only nod.

The male student from Saint Mingwang Academy who received the mission slipped out from the back door of the tower at the first opportunity, took out a cloak to cover himself completely, looking exactly like the sneaky type.

He went straight to the most densely populated area in this small space, a huge circular plaza. Nowadays, various academies had sent students out to gather intelligence, and this was the place where information was most concentrated.

Although no one knew how much of the intelligence spread here was true or false.

The male student from Saint Mingwang Academy wandered around the plaza for a while, looking left and right. This kind of task of finding people to spread news couldn't be given to those who looked too smart, lest the clues be discovered.

Thus, after scouting for over ten minutes, he finally found a suitable target.

It was a young man sitting on the steps of a fountain, lost in thought. The eyes beneath his bangs seemed filled with confusion and bewilderment about the future. His clothes were quite ordinary, so his family background was likely average; this should be someone with a pursuit for money.

Thus, a smile appeared on the face of the male student under the cloak. He walked over slowly and said quietly: "Brother, looking for work?"

At this moment, Yu Lang, who was feeling weak from hunger because he hadn't eaten much in the morning, raised his head in confusion, looking at the person in front of him who was wrapped in a black robe and bamboo hat, looking like no good news.

And just as he was about to wave his hand impatiently, the other party directly handed over a stack of leaflets, and on the very top of the stack was a 100,000-denomination Gold Dragon note.

"Brother, spread this around, and 100,000 Heavenly Gold is yours."

Hearing this, Yu Lang instantly perked up. He revealed a smile and took it with lightning speed: "Brother, your eye for people is truly sharp. You picked me out of the sea of people at a glance. I understand this kind of thing."

The male student from Saint Mingwang Academy had no interest in saying more and turned to leave.

Yu Lang first put away the Gold Dragon note, then glanced at the stack of leaflets.

When he saw the striking "Shocking Revelation" written on it and the text that followed, his expression changed instantly.

"You dog, you're trying to mess with my brother Li Luo."

His eyes shifted, and he glanced at the black-robed person who was about to slip away, then hurriedly chased after him and grabbed him.

"What are you doing?!" The black-robed student immediately said with vigilance.

"Brother, can you give all these good jobs to me? I'll definitely arrange them for you perfectly!" Yu Lang revealed a greedy look.

The black-robed student frowned: "You're quite greedy. Just finish what you have first."

Yu Lang's eyes flashed, showing a pained expression, and he whispered: "I understand what you mean. How about this, I'll give you half as a kickback, and I'll do these dirty jobs for you!"

The black-robed student was stunned. You can take kickbacks?! Things can be operated like this? My pure heart has been impacted.

The black-robed student's expression softened somewhat. Anyway, the task Jing Taixu gave him was to find someone to distribute the leaflets; he didn't specify how many people, so giving them to this seemingly greedy guy was fine. After all, the other party was so sensible.

Thus, after hesitating for a moment, he handed all the leaflets to Yu Lang and added another 100,000-denomination Gold Dragon note.

Well, 500,000 total; he kept 300,000. He did this mainly because the Yu Lang before him had opened up a new line of thinking for him.

"Brother, do a good job."

He patted Yu Lang's shoulder encouragingly and walked away easily.

Yu Lang curled his lips, then ran to a corner, took out a pen, and after imitating the handwriting on the leaflets for a while, he leisurely added some things to the back of every leaflet.

"Second Bloody Shocking Revelation!"

"This matter did not come to pass later, it is rumored that it was because the Jing family discovered that Jing Taixu has had a weak kidney since childhood!!"
