Chapter 379: The Heart of the Immortal King!
Fang Yu walked to the side, not wanting to be seen by Ye Shengxue.
However, as luck would have it, Ye Shengxue lifted her eyes and spotted Fang Yu. Her beautiful eyes flickered, and she quickly walked towards him.
“Mr. Fang, are you also studying at this university?” Ye Shengxue asked with a shallow smile, her dimples showing as she stood in front of Fang Yu.
“No, I’m just here to take a look around,” Fang Yu replied.
“Take a look? Are you planning to continue? I can be your tour guide,” Ye Shengxue said with a light laugh.
“No need, I was just about to leave,” Fang Yu said.
Seeing Ye Shengxue actively approach a male student to chat, the surrounding students were shocked.
What’s going on?
How could the Ice Goddess take the initiative to talk to someone? And it’s a guy!
No one had enjoyed such treatment for an entire year!
Everyone turned to look at Fang Yu, scanning him from head to toe, but couldn’t figure anything out.
The only thing they could confirm was that Ye Shengxue was very familiar with this guy!
Because Ye Shengxue was smiling!
Many boys were seeing Ye Shengxue’s smile for the first time!
It was as beautiful and captivating as a blooming flower!
So beautiful…
Many boys looked enchanted.
“Since you’re here, don’t rush to leave. Nandu University is one of the top three largest in the Jiuzhou Kingdom. I guarantee there are many places you haven’t visited yet,” Ye Shengxue said confidently, hands behind her back.
This statement was indeed true; Nandu University was visibly large, and the only places Fang Yu had walked through were the office and teaching buildings.
But Fang Yu knew that Ye Shengxue’s enthusiasm had an ulterior motive.
He had no intention of collaborating with her.
“Forget it, I’ve been wandering for a whole morning and I’m a bit tired,” Fang Yu said, turning to leave.
Ye Shengxue stopped talking and silently followed beside Fang Yu.
“These two are actually walking together! They look just like a couple!”
“This guy can’t be Ye Goddess’s new boyfriend, right? After all, summer vacation just ended, and it’s normal for Ye Goddess to have feelings…”
“I think it’s pretty much confirmed. If he’s not her boyfriend, how could Ye Goddess be so close to him and keep smiling while talking!”
After confirming this, many boys were heartbroken and lamenting.
…
“You’re surprisingly thick-skinned,” Fang Yu said, stopping after walking a while and turning to look at Ye Shengxue.
If this statement were heard by others, it would definitely cause a stir.
Having a beauty like Ye Shengxue beside him was a matter of pride for any man, yet Fang Yu actually said she was thick-skinned?
That was too lacking in appreciation!
“Mr. Fang, I just hope you give me a chance to finish my sentence. You don’t even know what I want to ask you to do, yet you refuse me…” Ye Shengxue hadn’t finished speaking when Fang Yu turned and walked away.
Ye Shengxue had to swallow the rest of her words, biting her pink lips, and hurried to catch up with Fang Yu.
As the eldest daughter of the Ye family, she held significant power within her family.
Thus, whether at home or outside, everyone treated her with utmost respect.
This was the first time she encountered someone with such an attitude as Fang Yu.
But Ye Shengxue felt no anger in her heart.
She was certain that Fang Yu was the person the Ye family needed, and no matter what, she had to seek his help.
Compared to the future of the Ye family, face and dignity could be set aside.
Fang Yu walked briskly, not heading towards the school gate but rather in the opposite direction, deeper into the campus.
“Up ahead is the School of Biology, further ahead is the School of Physics, and beyond that is the famous Qinxiu Lake,” Ye Shengxue walked beside Fang Yu, introducing the sights without caring whether he was listening.
“Beast Lake?” Fang Yu turned to look at Ye Shengxue, puzzled.
Ye Shengxue covered her mouth and chuckled, completely shedding her cold demeanor in front of others, and said, “I knew you would say that. But that’s incorrect. ‘Qin’ means diligence, and ‘Xiu’ means harvest.”
“The first board member of Nandu University named this lake Qinxiu, hoping that the students of Nandu University could study diligently and gain the most rewards possible.”
Fang Yu nodded, and the two continued walking.
Before long, they arrived at Qinxiu Lake.
The lake was very large, much bigger than Fang Yu had imagined.
At a glance, he couldn’t even see the railing on the opposite side.
“This is the largest natural lake in Nandu. The surrounding railings were added when the school was established to prevent students from slipping and having accidents,” Ye Shengxue explained.
Fang Yu walked to the railing and looked at the lake surface.
The water here was a deep green, making it impossible to see what was beneath.
“It’s said that the deepest part of Qinxiu Lake is nearly a hundred meters, so it’s not very safe,” Ye Shengxue continued.
Fang Yu looked around and noticed many couples walking hand in hand along the lake.
Every segment of the railing had stone benches for people to rest.
“The students of Nandu University, like you, have given this lake many nicknames, and… many couples like to come here for a stroll,” Ye Shengxue seemed to genuinely take on the role of a tour guide, explaining.
“It seems people also call it Beast Lake like I do, and many couples come here for a walk. Could it be that they are…” Fang Yu intentionally left his sentence unfinished, but it was clear he was implying something.
Hearing this, Ye Shengxue looked up at Fang Yu and noticed a teasing smile on his face.
Ye Shengxue’s cheeks flushed slightly, but she still replied, “I’m not sure.”
…
While Fang Yu and Ye Shengxue were conversing, about a thousand meters away by Qinxiu Lake, a man stood alone.
There were no other people nearby.
Because Qinxiu Lake was so vast, it extended two to three kilometers into the depths.
Most students wouldn’t walk such a long distance; they would typically turn back after walking three to four hundred meters.
This man looked young, appearing no different from other students.
He stood on the railing, holding a strange object in both hands.
The object was grayish-white, about the size of a head, with many folds and tiny tubes on it.
It looked like a sculpted heart.
But this heart was much larger than a human heart!
“This is definitely the right place; the treasure bestowed upon me by Wang has already resonated,” the man stood on the railing, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He had forged an identity to enter Nandu University and had been searching for months. Finally, today he found the Heart of the Earth!
Next, as long as he burned this heart over the Heart of the Earth, this long-sealed heart would be revived!
Once the heart revived, the physical functions of the Undying King would be greatly restored.
Their Undying Clan was not far from returning to the surface!
The man was extremely excited, cradling the heart, leaning forward, ready to jump into the lake.
But just then, two glowing blue ropes shot out from behind, binding the man’s body.
The man turned around and saw a handsome young man!
It was Ji Feng, whom Fang Yu had just met!
“Cao Tian, we, the Orderers, have been watching you for a long time. In the past six months, you have brutally killed seventeen innocent women and murdered seven members of the Martial Arts Association who came to capture you. Then you used magic to change your appearance and blended into Nandu University… I am Ji Feng, a four-star mage, ordered to capture you!” Ji Feng’s expression was cold as he stared at Cao Tian, listing each of his crimes.
After hearing Ji Feng’s words, there was no trace of fear on Cao Tian’s face; instead, he grinned with a chilling smile.
“Orderers? What qualifications do you have to capture me?” Cao Tian laughed wildly, and at the same time, his upper body muscles suddenly bulged.
“Bang!”
The two glowing blue ropes instantly snapped!
Cao Tian let out a wild laugh, stepping on the railing, shattering it, and charged towards Ji Feng with a punch aimed at him.
Ji Feng drew a circle in the air with his right hand, forming a pentagram seal to block in front of him.
“Crash!”
The seal was shattered by Cao Tian’s punch.
“You came at just the right time; I haven’t killed anyone in a long time to maintain my disguise as a student, and I’m itching for a fight!” Cao Tian laughed heartily, his right hand forming a claw, sharp nails extending from each finger, reaching for Ji Feng’s chest.
Ji Feng stepped back, hands forming seals, and once again conjured a blue pentagram seal in the air.
The seal glowed blue, and a beam of light shot out from it.
Cao Tian didn’t dodge at all, still charging straight at Ji Feng!
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, Ji Feng groaned in pain and was sent flying.
…
“Alright, say what you want, but I’ll tell you first that I probably won’t agree,” Fang Yu leaned against the railing, lazily speaking to Ye Shengxue.
Ye Shengxue’s face lit up with joy, and she immediately said, “It’s like this, our Ye family has been…”
Just as she started, Fang Yu suddenly turned his head to look ahead.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Shengxue asked.
Fang Yu didn’t respond.
After a moment, Ye Shengxue also sensed the aura coming from afar, along with faint explosions.
“There are martial artists fighting ahead?” Ye Shengxue’s expression changed slightly.
“Not necessarily martial artists. It should be said that neither of them are martial artists,” Fang Yu said, pushing off the ground.
“Bang!”
The stone slab beneath Fang Yu shattered as his figure instantly vanished from sight.
Ye Shengxue hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, activated her skills, and rushed towards the direction of the aura.
