Rising Wind, Surging Clouds, and Lu Huai Scorned

編輯: Dragon Boat Translation

As soon as Lin Xiaomeng said that, the students around started to discuss again.

"The Lin family! It's actually the Lin family!"

"The Lin family actually extended an olive branch to him, and the alliance did so as well. This guy's luck is too good."

"What do you mean luck? If you can awaken a gradeless talent, you can also receive such treatment."

The Lin family?

Lu Huai once again thought of the Lin family in his memories. He did not know if the two Lin families were related.

Lu Huai had also heard of the Lin family.

In the human race, other than the alliance that managed District 14, there were eight other big families.

The Lin family was one of the eight great families.

Lin Xiaomeng looked at Lu Huai's expression. Her face was uncertain, and she gritted her teeth in her heart.

She wondered if she should give herself to him.

As the daughter of the Lin family, Lin Xiaomeng knew very well that her marriage would definitely end up being arranged for her.

Instead of being made to marry someone she did not know by her family, she would much rather decide her own marriage.

At the very least, Lu Huai was quite handsome. In addition, she had heard that Lu Huai's family was very poor, but he was very hardworking and had received a three-year scholarship.

Because of that, she had a good impression of Lu Huai.

"Student Lu, perhaps you can consider marrying into our Lin family."

Lin Xiaomeng blushed, but she still said it in the end.

As soon as these words of hers came out, the crowd went into an uproar. Some people secretly cursed the Lin family head for being shameless.

He was actually using the tactic of seducing the hero with a beauty and even used his own daughter as a bargaining chip.

Face with the invitation from the Lin family, Lu Huai felt a headache.

His SSS-grade body tempering art was stolen from the Lin family.

If he joined the Lin family, what would happen when Big Black showed up to steal the cultivation technique...

Lu Huai's head ached at the thought.

"I'm sorry, but I think my surname is Lu."

Lu Huai rejected Lin Xiaomeng.

As soon as this was said, the scene fell silent.

No one expected that Lu Huai would actually reject the Lin family's invitation.

And he even rejected her without any hesitation.

The students looked at Lu Huai, who was in the middle of them all, and they wished they could go up and agree on his behalf.

Lin Xiaomeng also looked at Lu Huai in shock.

She did not know why, but when Lu Huai rejected her, her originally nervous heart immediately relaxed.

But for some reason, she also felt a sense of loss.

"That's fine. Nevertheless, Student Lu Huai, if you have any ideas in the future, you can come over anytime. The Lin family's doors will always be open for you."

After Lin Xiaomeng said those words, she quickly covered her face and left.

Having said those words in front of the whole school, Lin Xiaomeng, who was extremely thin-skinned, blushed.

She wished she could immediately find a hole to hide in.

"Then, principal, I guess I'll be heading back first?"

Lu Huai said to the principal after Lin Xiaomeng left.

Xu Zhichu did not expect Lu Huai to reject the Lin family's proposal to marry into their family, so he nodded in a daze.

The people who were blocking Lu Huai's way also subconsciously made way for him and watched him leave.

Not long after Lu Huai left, an explosive piece of news immediately spread on the alliance's internet.

"Shocking news! A gradeless talent has appeared in Anyang First High School. A talent that only exists in books has appeared!"

When the netizens saw this news, they quickly clicked on it.

Everyone started discussing it.

"A gradeless talent? Really? Up until now, I don't think there's ever been a gradeless talent in the Alliance."

"Yes, there is. The martial saint, Gu Wushuang, has a gradeless talent. Could it be that a second Gu Wushuang is about to appear in our human race?"

"We still don't know if it's true or not. This might be fake news."

Just as everyone was discussing, the news suddenly disappeared, which greatly disappointed the audience. They all thought that it was fake news.

At this time, inside Anyang First High School.

All the teachers and headmasters who had participated in the awakening ceremony were gathered.

On the stage, the group of alliance members in suits glanced at the headmasters and teachers of the major schools in front of them and slowly said, "You must keep the matter of Lu Huai's awakened talent a secret, understood?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"But there were so many students present who saw it," someone said while frowning.

The people from the Alliance said, "I've asked their teachers to tell them that they must keep Lu Huai's matter a secret." They should understand the stakes at hand."

The people of the alliance were also helpless. There were simply too many people who had seen Lu Huai's awakening this time. This was really all they could do.

The matter of deleting the information on the internet was done by the alliance.

Regarding the matter of geniuses with gradeless talents, they had to keep it an absolute secret. They could not reveal this news at all.

Especially not to those from the monster race.

Meanwhile, Long Sheng, who had just returned to the alliance management office, had just returned home. His butt had just touched the sofa when his phone rang.

"Long Sheng!"

An extremely angry voice came from the other side of the phone. Long Sheng was so scared that he almost dropped his phone.

"Chairman, what's wrong?"

"You still have the nerve to ask what's wrong?! Why didn't you report the appearance of someone with a gradeless martial arts talent earlier?"

Long Sheng wiped off his cold sweat and laughed awkwardly, "Chairman, I just came back and wanted to tell you, right?"

"You aren't alert enough. Just now, there was a news report about a genius with a gradeless talent on the internet." The chairman immediately started scolding him. "Alright, you don't have to find someone to delete it. I've already settled it. In the future, you must tell me as soon as possible when something like this happens."

Long Sheng broke out in a cold sweat. He did not expect that there would already be a news report in such a short time. Fortunately, the chairman was able to react fast enough.

"I'm sorry, Chairman," Long Sheng quickly apologized. "I was negligent."

"Hmph, there's no need to apologize." The chairman snorted coldly. "Right now, you just need to focus on winning Lu Huai over to our alliance."

"Yes," Long Sheng replied. After hanging up the phone, he showed a melancholic expression.

He had wanted to recruit Lu Huai into the alliance, but he had not agreed.

When he thought of the hungry eyes of those forces when they looked at Lu Huai, Long Sheng gritted his teeth and immediately left his room and rushed to Lu Huai's residence.

Long Sheng was not the only one who rushed to Lu Huai's house.

The people in charge of the alliance's universities and academies had also taken action. Although the news had been erased from the internet, these people had a close relationship with the alliance, so they were still able to find out about Lu Huai's gradeless talent through various channels.

Lu Huai would graduate from Anyang First High School in a few months.

At that time, he would be going to university. If they could pull Lu Huai into their school, it would be much more convenient for them to recruit students in the future.

They could say to others, "Look, even a genius with a gradeless talent has chosen our academy. What are you still thinking about?"

Therefore, they all rushed to District 12 from the other districts, hoping to intercept Lu Huai before the people from the other academies could get in touch with him.

At this moment, Lu Huai did not know that a large group of people was heading toward his house.

When he opened the door after he got home, the house was as messy as ever.

It was obviously Big Black's doing.

After coming back from the future, Big Black had returned to its lively state, taking demolishing houses as its mission.

Lu Huai looked at Big Black, pounced on it, and locked its neck.

"Big Black, what's with your power?"

Lu Huai asked.

Big Black writhed uneasily in Lu Huai's arms. Its immense strength almost allowing it to break free from Lu Huai's restraint.

Even Lu Huai did not know that Big Black had such great strength.

He already had over 100 points of blood and qi, but he still could not trap Big Blak

However, no matter how he interrogated Big Black, it did not respond.

In the end, Lu Huai placed Big Black down and began to think.

He had read many novels in his previous life and knew that transmigrators must have a cheat.

Big Black was undoubtedly his cheat.

Thus, Lu Huai tried saying some things.

"System?"

"Makabbaka?"

"Open sesame?"

"…"

In the end, nothing worked.

Lu Huai's gaze was still on Big Black.

"Big Black, be good. I'll give you some ham sausages if you're good. Can you tell me what happened?"

Lu Huai coaxed Big Black for a long time with snacks.

Then, he saw Big Black shoot him a look of disdain.

[Ding! Silly Doggy thinks that you're too troublesome, so it has decided to show you its attribute panel.]

A holographic screen appeared in front of Lu Huai.
