Chapter 247 Everyone, See You in Five Years.
"By the way, Dean, Teacher Zhao, I probably won't be returning to the academy or Heaven Dou City for most of these five years, so I have some things to ask you."
Xuan Mo then told Flander that Xiao Bai was already living at Shrek Academy and that Balotrad was coming to Shrek Academy to teach temporarily, asking him to take care of things.
"Also, there's my parents..."
"You brat, you can go for the next five years without worry."
Before Flander could speak, Zhao Wuji patted his chest and readily agreed, "From now on, treat Xiao Bai like your son, entrust him to me without worry. As long as I have food to eat, I will never mistreat him. Right, Boss Flander?"
Flander gave him a disgruntled look, and just when everyone thought Flander was going to settle scores with Xuan Mo, what he said next left Grandmaster and the others stunned.
"That's right, Mo doesn't need to pay for Xiaobai's money."
Seeing Flander's unusual behavior, Oscar and Ma Hongjun's jaws nearly dropped.
Even Xuan Mo, whose hand had been resting on "King Kong," subtly moved away, looking utterly incredulous that this was Flander.
"Uh... what's wrong with the teacher?"
"Maybe he's had a change of heart."
"But regardless, the dean who made this decision today is surprisingly domineering!"
However, in the next second, everyone realized that Flander hadn't changed at all; he was still the same as before.
"Ahem, of course, the academy can't afford such an extra expense, so I've decided that Xiaobai's money for the next five years will be deducted from Old Zhao's salary."
"Uh..."
Then, Xuanmo and the others watched as Flander pulled out an abacus from somewhere and started calculating in front of everyone, muttering things like "food expenses," "accommodation fees," and so on. The amounts he recited kept getting larger and larger, causing Zhao Wuji to break out in a cold sweat.
After a short while, "Bang!"
Flander slammed his hand on the abacus. "Old Zhao, the money's been calculated. In conclusion, your monthly salary is about right. Of course, if Xiaobai causes any other problems for the academy, then your bonus will also be completely deducted." At this moment, Zhao Wuji couldn't hold back any longer.
"Hey, Boss Flander, you can't do this to me!" Zhao Wuji roared. "How am I supposed to live like this? Besides, it's just raising Xiaobai, it doesn't cost that much! And you, you've embezzled it all!"
"Ahem, Old Zhao, you can doubt my character. But you absolutely can't doubt my math skills, how could I be wrong?"
"What I'm saying has nothing to do with your math skills! You miser, this is completely related to your character!"
"Look."
Facing the "angry" Zhao Wuji, Flander calmly put the abacus back into his soul tool, then spread his hands, "You said it's a matter of character, so I admit it."
"And then?"
"And then? Oh, right."
Flander seemed to remember something after hearing Zhao Wuji's words, and then laughed, "Old Zhao, hurry up and give me the money. I calculated it, it's a total of one hundred gold soul coins. That's the money Xiaobai spent at Shrek Academy these past few days while we were competing."
Seeing Flander's outstretched hand, Zhao Wuji jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"You actually asked me for money, and one hundred gold soul coins at that!"
"Hurry up and hand it over."
"I..."
Zhao Wuji was helpless when he saw Flander's irritating look. After all, he couldn't beat him in a fight, and if he did, he would be completely crushed by Flander.
So after thinking for a moment, he decided to compromise, "Then Flander, let me ask you, what if I don't have money for food later?"
"It's simple."
Flander rubbed his hands together, "I'll lend it to you."
Hearing this, Zhao Wuji, as an old friend of more than twenty years, knew Flander's nature all too well. Seeing Flander's smiling face, a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes. "You value money more than life itself, yet you lend it to me so easily?"
"Heh, double the interest."
"Flander! You..."
After Xuan Mo arranged everything, he called Zhao Wuji aside.
"Teacher Zhao, I have something for you."
Zhao Wuji frowned. "Boy Mo, that's unnecessary. It's our own choice to help you with your problems, and it relieves you of any worries. There's no need for this..."
But when Zhao Wuji saw what Xuan Mo took out, he froze on the spot. "This, this is... a soul bone!"
The soul bone, radiating a dark golden light, was the left arm bone produced by the ten-thousand-year-old Dark Golden Terrorclaw Bear in the Star Dou Great Forest.
This was the one Xiong Jun had given him before Xuan Mo left. However, Xiong Jun's expression at the time was clearly a little off.
"You brat, this is... no, I can't accept it."
"Teacher Zhao, you should keep it."
After Xuan Mo forcefully shoved the bone into Zhao Wuji's hand, seeing Zhao Wuji trying to push it back, he said, "Teacher Zhao, Senior Di Tian and the others have already prepared a soul bone for me, so this left arm bone, which is just over ten thousand years old, is still yours. It comes from the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and since your martial soul is also bear-like, the compatibility is extremely high."
"Besides, if you absorb the soul bone, it will also speed up your breakthrough to Title Douluo. That way, our Shrek Academy will have two Douluos, giving us more confidence and preventing us from being powerless against Title Douluo experts."
Zhao Wuji was clearly tempted, so he finally agreed and gave Xuan Mo a big bear hug.
"Goodbye, everyone."
Xuan Mo bid farewell to everyone at Shrek Academy, walked up to Ning Rongrong, and even gave her a kiss on the forehead.
Then, leaving behind the words "Wait for me," he was swept away by Di Tian in a burst of black light and disappeared from the spot.
Meanwhile, in Wuhun City, at the Elder Hall...
"I never expected that Di Tian, who suddenly made a move, would ruin our plan to intercept Tang Hao."
Qian Daoliu stood in front of the angel statue, his face full of displeasure.
"But never mind. How's it going on your end?"
Hearing Qian Daoliu's question, Citun and Shemao replied respectfully, "Reporting to the Grand Elder, everything is under control."
"Hmm."
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, "I never agreed to her doing this, wasting so much time. Go back and tell her to finish as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible. There's no need to spend so much time there."
"Yes, sir."
Then Qian Daoliu said to Ju and Gui, "Tell Bibi Dong that I know what she's thinking, but for now, this old man is still useful and can keep her in check. Since she wants to make a move, then hurry up. I don't have the time."
At this point, Qian Daoliu paused.
"Also, have her investigate that kid named Xuanmo. I don't want the forces behind him to cause trouble for my granddaughter in the future."
"Yes."
Ju and Gui Douluo nodded in agreement.
Although they were on Bibi Dong's side, they didn't dare disobey Qian Daoliu's orders at this moment.
"You six should hurry up and leave."
"Bibi Dong..."
Qian Daoliu murmured again after they left, then his figure vanished instantly. A moment later, he reappeared in front of the Douluo Hall.
"Old buddies..."
