Chapter 1107 - 1106 No Bottom Line

Chapter 1107: Chapter 1106 No Bottom Line

Su Yang escorted Hu Xiexie back to the girls’ dormitory. With Xiao Huang and Little Turtle by her side, she was in absolute safety.

Su Yang didn’t know much about Xiao Huang, but the fact that the two old men had tried to extort money while holding Xiao Huang made Su Yang even more certain that Xiao Huang was no ordinary creature. With Xiao Huang and Little Turtle together, Hu Xiexie’s safety would at least be ensured.

Returning to his own dormitory, Su Yang set down the cash box and took out the Bronze Seal Script, preparing to start using it to read Destiny’s Tome again.

However, just as he took out Destiny’s Tome, his heart skipped a beat, for he remembered something very important.

The text on the Bronze Seal Script was extremely strange and incomprehensible unless paired with Destiny’s Tome.

Previously, Su Yang had asked others to try to read the script on the Bronze Seal Script, but none could understand it, not even those archaeologists.

Su Yang could only understand the contents when he had both Destiny’s Tome and the Bronze Seal Script together, meaning he could only read the Bronze Seal Script while holding Destiny’s Tome.

And just now, Wu Daozi and Yuan Tiangang had unexpectedly offered to help translate the text, what did that mean? Could they, in fact, understand the text on the Bronze Seal Script?

At the same time, Su Yang reflected on his response earlier. When they had offered to help with the translation, he had flatly refused.

At the time, it seemed insignificant to Su Yang, but now, reflecting alone, he realized he had been too abrupt in his refusal. This would have surely made those two old men immediately aware that he could understand the Bronze Seal Script.

Su Yang didn’t know what exactly was written on the Bronze Seal Script, but it was definitely not something simple. He could only understand it with Destiny’s Tome, and he didn’t know if it was possible to comprehend without it, but his earlier response might have let those old men in on some of his secrets. Even worse, they might now know that he possessed Destiny’s Tome.

As for what Destiny’s Tome actually was, Su Yang didn’t know. Maybe Su Ping knew, but he had never mentioned it to Su Yang.

But one thing was certain, the origins of Destiny’s Tome were definitely not ordinary.

If those two old men truly knew he had Destiny’s Tome, could something unexpected happen?

Thinking of this, Su Yang couldn’t sit still anymore. He leaped down from his building and hastened to the small restaurant. But when he arrived upstairs, he found that the two old men were already gone, the place bereft of people.

Su Yang wandered around the vicinity for a while but couldn’t find the old men, feeling helpless. Those two old guys, always elusive, were never around when needed, yet always seemed to be lurking when not needed, which was the most irritating part.

Reluctantly, he turned to head back to his dormitory. However, just as he approached the building, he noticed from afar that the light was on in his room upstairs.

Su Yang was certain he had turned off the light before leaving, so why was it on now?

Without hesitation, he rushed upstairs to his room, only to find that the cash box he had left on his bedside was missing. There was also a note left on the bed, which read: "Su, lad, we answered your question, so the money should be ours—we’ve taken it. Also, here’s a free piece of advice: too many people in Capital City are after this Bronze Seal Script, so you’d better not show off. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died, and that would really be awkward!"

Su Yang almost choked on his own blood. Without a doubt, Wu Daozi and Yuan Tiangang had taken advantage of his absence to steal his money.

The money was not the key issue—the cash box contained only a million or so. What really rendered Su Yang speechless was how swiftly those two old guys had acted.

Su Yang had jumped from the building directly to the small restaurant, a span of less than three minutes. Yet within that time, those two old men managed to take the cash and leave the note. It seemed likely that they had been lying in wait just out of sight, biding their time for Su Yang to leave.

Even more, they might have anticipated that Su Yang would definitely go out to look for them, so they quietly waited in hiding. As soon as he left, they rushed in, took the money, wrote the note, and ran off.

Reflecting on this, Su Yang became even more curious about these two old men.

Clearly, those two old men were not what they seemed on the surface. Serving as teachers at Qinghe Academy, they definitely were no ordinary men. Leaving aside the question of strength, at minimum, these two surely knew many secrets.

Su Yang couldn’t understand, being teachers from the same school, why these two old men had such a rough time. To say they were playing the game of life was an understatement; they were just behaving like low-life swindlers.

Su Yang read the note once more, then set it on fire, burning it to ashes. The former words could be disregarded, but the warning these guys had given him—this was something he must keep in mind.

Many in Capital City were after the Bronze Seal Script, and some were willing to kill for it? This suggested that someone in Capital City not only knew about the Bronze Seal Script but might also know its origins. Could that mean that Su Yang could learn the secrets of the Bronze Seal Script from these people in Capital City?

After a moment of silence, Su Yang decided to hide the Bronze Seal Script in his storage ring. He didn’t know exactly who in Capital City was after the script, but as the old men had said, he needed to be cautious. After all, he was exposed while others were hidden, and there were many things that were impossible to guard against!

In the following days, Su Yang never saw those two old men at the school again.

However, he learned from a few students that the old men seemed to have struck it rich, playing non-stop at the casino across from the school for two full days. Unsatisfied, they took a cab out of town, mumbling something about going to Las Vegas before disappearing without a trace.

Su Yang was speechless at the absurdity. These two old guys really knew how to create a ruckus. Going to Las Vegas, weren’t they afraid of getting their legs broken there?

In the days that followed, all was calm in the senior class.

After the events of that night, Ge Kaiyang seemed to have vanished from the school, not appearing again.

Now, only Lü Donglin, Wu Feizhi, and Zhao Dongming remained of the four major powers in the senior class.

With a three-way balance of power, none dared to make a move. Whichever of them acted first could easily provoke the others to unite against them, so everyone was waiting for the right opportunity.
