The Whole World Awakened: My Clones Are Everywhere

66 I’ve Answered Your Question

At the small tavern.

The tavern was in the south of the city, close to the city wall. There were not many customers, but there was no lack of business.

The tavern was on the third floor, and below was a wine cellar and a kitchen.

On the second floor, Ling Feng observed his surroundings. The lady boss was at the counter looking at the account book, her forehead covered in black lines.

When she saw Ling Feng, she raised her head and glanced at him.

“Drinking?”

Ling Feng didn’t say anything.

The lady boss understood. He was probably here to find someone. This young man was young, gentle, and sunny. He didn’t seem to be a good drinker. Moreover, this was their first meeting, and he wasn’t a regular.

“He’s probably looking for someone.”

With that, her eyes silently returned to the account book, and she sighed again.

Seeing the private room, Ling Feng walked over. The space of the pub was not big. Other than the living room, there were only three private rooms.

After looking around, his gaze finally fell on a mature woman. She sat on the chair in the private room, shaking the wine glass in her hand.

Ling Feng strode over.

Secretary Qian smiled when he saw who it was.

“They’re here.”

Ling Feng felt a little uncomfortable. This place was a little noisy.

However, in order to obtain more information, he sat down.

Secretary Qian found it funny. It seemed like Ling Feng rarely came to this kind of occasion.

Secretary Qian: “Before I tell you the information, I still want to ask you something. Are you still not willing to come to our elemental school?”

What she meant was that there was no point in insisting on it now.

After all, there were only two people left in Supreme Academy. Even if Ling Feng went over, there would only be three people.

Even if the Sword God was the principal of the school, so what?

That place was the sinkhole. Usually, those who were bold enough to go there would not be able to return alive.

That was why no one had dared to go there in the past few years.

The Elemental Academy not only actively recruited Ling Feng, but this school was also ranked in the top three.

The school’s resources were abundant, which was more beneficial to him. Furthermore, the school produced many talents.

For someone like Ling Feng, as long as he went, he would definitely be given special training.

In fact, Secretary Qian’s question was not only on behalf of herself, but also the principal who had entrusted her with hope.

However, the purpose of her visit was to let Ling Feng know the information that she had.

He would be rewarded handsomely if he managed to cultivate talents, especially as a principal. There would be more and more benefits.

This was also the reason why a Tier 6 principal came to such a small city to be a principal.

It would be great if he could train talents, and the corresponding rewards were too much. With these rewards, he might be able to break through to Tier 6.

However, it was mainly based on luck.

Although there were talents, none were as talented as Ling Feng.

Therefore, Ling Feng’s appearance had given him a lot of hope. That was why he was so hard at recruiting him, unwilling to give up.

As long as Ling Feng could enter the school, his performance would be able to reach the end. With a little bit of luck, entering the seventh rank would not be a problem.

After raising his class, his lifespan and future would be higher and higher.

Ling Feng picked up his wine glass and poured himself a cup. He was reminded of his eldest senior brother.

He nodded.

Once he had decided on something, he would not change his mind.

Especially since this was an agreement with eldest senior brother, it could not be changed at will.

Secretary Qian did not continue to persuade him.

“In fact, entering the Elemental Academy will benefit you a lot, but since you are so insistent, you have to give me a reason.”

Ling Feng thought for a moment, and the reason was actually very simple.

“When it comes to safety, I prefer excitement. That’s why the Supreme Academy in the ultimate suits me more.”

She didn’t expect Ling Feng’s personality to be like this. But it made sense. He had always been a cold person.

This line of thought was normal.

If he had been like an ordinary person, he might not have had such achievements.

She thought about how if she went to a crowded school, she would be dragged into it even if she didn’t want to interact with others. It was just like the last time someone had challenged him.

No matter if he caused trouble or not, trouble would come looking for him, and he would have to deal with it. Just thinking about it was a headache and annoying. It would be even worse if his cultivation was delayed.

For safety’s sake, he had chosen to return to the void so firmly. The monsters in the ultimate were to his liking. He just wanted to keep killing monsters to level up.

But that was what he had thought before.

His thoughts were mixed with something else.

“I’ve already answered your question. Can you tell me the information I want to know?”

...

“It’s a reliable source. Zhou Yang should be fine. You can rest assured. However, you must keep this a secret. You can’t tell anyone.”

Ling Feng frowned.

Why was the former secretary so certain?

And that was what eldest brother had said before he left.

Secretary Qian looked around, and after confirming that no one was around, she explained to Ling Feng.

“In this incident, they were not targeting Zhou Yang, but the Sword God behind him. At most, they only dared to spread rumors and ruin the reputation of the Sword God. They didn’t dare to really kill people. After all, no one can fight against the Sword God. If anything happens to Zhou Yang, the sword God will definitely not let it go. You can imagine the consequences.”

The other party’s words weren’t without reason. In fact, these were also in line with Ling Feng’s thoughts.

“If both sides start to argue, I’m afraid it’ll cause a huge commotion. It’s not just a personal grudge; it’ll also involve politics. The Li family’s collusion with the realm of the dead is just a small fuse. No one cares if it’s true or not.

Secretary Qian’s words analyzed fourth Madam’s current situation.

Ling Feng was more confident now.

Indeed, if the Sword God got really angry about this, the Ministry of Law would suffer. Those who incited this incident would definitely be dug out.

...

Everyone had their own weaknesses and didn’t dare to make the first move, so the current situation was still optimistic.

After all, no one would benefit if they fell out with each other. Everyone was just pulling at each other’s limits, using the most disgusting way to win some leadership rights.

Ling Feng was extremely disgusted by this. If he had directly cut the Gordian knot and solved it with a single slash…

However, after hearing such analysis and judgment, this information was like a calming pill to Ling Feng.

Secretary Qian smiled and comforted him.

Ling Feng’s attention then shifted to her.

She wasn’t even 30 and was only the principal’s secretary. To be able to know such inside information, her identity was probably not simple.

“Thank you,” he said politely.

“You’re not very strong right now, so I don’t think you should participate in this political contest, lest you become a sacrifice. The strong made the rules, and the weak obeyed the rules. This had been the case since ancient times. You should understand what I mean.”

Of course, he knew.

He also understood that the other party said these words because she was worried.

He could feel the concern of a stranger.

Secretary Qian felt that Ling Feng was staring at her, which made her a little uncomfortable. Did Ling Feng think that she was wrong?

“Do you have any questions?”

Ling Feng shook his head.

“I didn’t expect you to know about this,” he said with a smile. “I’ve underestimated you in the past.”

She pouted unhappily.

“What right do you have to look down on me?”

Ling Feng suddenly felt that he had said something wrong and hurriedly corrected his attitude.

“Actually, I didn’t mean it that way.”

But he didn’t know how to explain it.

Suddenly.

A plate of food was placed in front of them.

“This restaurant offers it free. Just drinking wine is harmful to the stomach. The dishes in this restaurant are very good, though. Try them!”

The lady boss smiled.

But after saying that, she left.

Before she left, she glanced at Ling Feng. Ling Feng met the other party’s gaze and immediately understood.

“I’m at fault. I’ll punish myself with a cup of wine!” He poured a glass of wine and finished it in one gulp.

Suddenly.

The atmosphere from before seemed to have lightened.

Secretary Qian also laughed. He did not care about what Ling Feng said at all.

“Alright, it’s normal for you not to know anything since you’re new here. Since you’re so determined, I’ve finally gotten my answer. I’ll have an explanation when I return.”

She left after she finished speaking.

The next second, someone grabbed her hand.

“Oh, right. I have a question to ask you, but it’s a private matter.”

Secretary Qian was stunned.

“What is it? You can ask.”

“You and the principal…” Ling Feng said with a smile.

“I’m his niece, and I call him Ninth Uncle in private,” she said.

“You have a lot of elders in your family!” Ling Feng said awkwardly.

“Five grandmothers and fifteen aunties; naturally, there will be more.”

Ling Feng’s expression became even more awkward.
