Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 440: I’ve Warned You Not to Sniff Anymore
Although Fang Jueyu had played a harsh trick on Blair, he managed to perform his duties on the surface quite well, making sure the guests from afar were well taken care of in terms of food, drink, and accommodation.
After hopping around for an entire night, Blair finally managed to expel the toxin from the "Half-Step Smile" from his body, finally walking like a normal human being.
However, his wariness of Fang Jueyu had escalated to another level. Even if it killed him, he wouldn’t want any close contact with Fang Jueyu again.
The next day, when Fang Jueyu and the others went to receive them, Blair acted as if he was avoiding the plague, staying as far from Fang Jueyu as possible, even refusing to ride in the same car.
"Coward," Fang Jueyu muttered to himself. His little tricks with poison didn’t have much effect on a divine-level superpower user unless caught off guard. Now that Blair was on guard, he could easily use some ability to prevent the poison from invading his body. Fang Jueyu wondered what Blair was so afraid of.
"Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of well ropes. He’s suffered twice at your hands, so even if he’s not afraid of poison, he’d worry about any other tricks you might have, naturally not daring to get close to you again," Long Ting observed with amusement.
"I really just wanted to warn him to behave a bit in Huaxia, not actually kill him," Fang Jueyu shrugged. "Once he sees my Super God Academy, I bet he’ll run away squealing all on his own."
"Fang Jueyu, is your Super God Academy really that impressive?" Long Ting asked skeptically.
"Of course! Let me tell you, our Super God Academy has thousands of teachers, each one far stronger than me. Any one of them could crush Blair easily."
"How is that possible?" Long Ting became even more incredulous upon hearing this.
Fang Jueyu’s strength was already at its peak. Although Long Ting had advanced to a ninth-level superpower user, she believed that if she faced off against Fang Jueyu, she would definitely lose. His strength was already between that of a ninth-level superpower user and a divine-level superpower user.
Such a figure, even globally, was possibly unique. As for Blair, he was undoubtedly the number one superpower user in the world today.
Fang Jueyu saying his school had thousands of people stronger than him was like claiming all the teachers were divine-level superpower users. That was simply impossible!
Leaving aside whether there were really that many strong individuals, even if there were, why would they be willing to be teachers at Fang Jueyu’s school? And why would Fang Jueyu be the dean there among a school full of powerhouses?
Could it just be because he was rich? But that was unlikely. Would beings that powerful lack money?
"Oh well, we’ll see when we get there." Long Ting’s curiosity about the school grew even stronger.
Soon, the car drove out of Jiangnan City’s suburbs. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Since the chief had tacitly allowed the existence of the Super God Academy, not just Antian Peak but even the surrounding area had been marked out and given to Fang Jueyu.
Fang Jueyu simply expanded the shielded area to include the nearby mountains and some farmland. After all, students couldn’t always stay confined in the Super God Academy. They needed to get out, get some fresh air, and do some hands-on practice.
These lands would just sit idle otherwise. It’s well known that nothing could be taken out of the school, so students studying agriculture began planting medicines here. Over a few months, thanks to their advanced planting techniques, the area had turned into a Medicine Field.
"Hey, Dean, you’re bringing some folks over for a school visit, huh!" A student wearing a straw hat emerged barefoot from the field. Fang Jueyu remembered this student’s name was Mou Weifeng, one of the batch enrolled six months ago, primarily studying alchemy. For students in the alchemy program, planting herbs was a required course.
Fang Jueyu naturally made some arrangements before Blair and the others came to see the Super God Academy, so the students knew he would be bringing people over today.
"Yeah, the Federal delegation is here to visit our school. This Medicine Field looks nice, what are you growing here?" Fang Jueyu asked, looking at the peculiar plants.
The area didn’t seem to have medicinal plants but rather some very vibrant flowers. The flowers were spiral-shaped and as large as a seashell.
"Oh, Dean, these are called Heavenly Snail Flowers. I spent some credits to exchange for them from the school’s seed bank!"
"Are they useful?" Over the past few months, for the school’s development, Fang Jueyu had indeed purchased many things from across the universe through the Space-Time Store. These materials were placed in the school’s exchange library, available for students to trade for with credits.
"The Heavenly Snail Flower is commonly used in refining high-grade pills. You can’t get them on Earth, so I’m just trying to grow them myself. They should mature next month."
"That’s interesting." Fang Jueyu crouched down to take a closer look at the Heavenly Snail Flower.
"Hey, Dean, you can’t just sniff these," Mou Weifeng immediately stopped Fang Jueyu. "Although these flowers can be used in medicine, their pollen is highly toxic. Without proper protective measures, you’ll get poisoned."
"Oh?" It was only then that Fang Jueyu noticed Mou Weifeng wearing something that looked like a helmet.
"What? Poisoned?" At that moment, a superpower user from the Federation was leaning in close to a Heavenly Snail Flower for a good look.
The Federation had long been curious about Huaxia’s alchemy, and among the superpower users sent this time, one specialized in alchemy. Their ulterior motive for visiting Huaxia was to acquire as much knowledge related to alchemy as possible.
So upon hearing that this plant could be used in refining high-grade pills, that superpower user immediately took an interest.
"Hahaha, no worries, it’s just a plant. The toxins probably aren’t that strong. We’re all advanced superpower users. How could we be poisoned by a mere plant’s toxins?" Although Blair suffered a bit yesterday, that "Half-Step Smile" was clearly a carefully concocted poison.
Plants in nature, even if toxic, generally only use it for self-protection. They’re merely biological toxins, which they could easily resist with their abilities.
However, he didn’t know that this type of plant’s native environment was a planet full of venomous insects and poisonous plants. The venomous insects there wield powers comparable to Hidden Elementers or even Source Energy Users.
For a plant to survive on that planet, ordinary toxins wouldn’t suffice. Let alone an advanced superpower user, even Hidden Elementers would get poisoned!
Indeed, a moment later, that superpower user’s eyes became scattered, his expression turned blank as if lost in a stupor, and he even started flailing.
He clung to Blair, beginning to dance a close, intimate dance, making for a rather indescribable scene.
"What... what’s wrong with him?" Blair, looking at the superpower user, expressed his concern. This wasn’t just any eighth-level superpower user; he was a young talent in pharmacology, a precious asset who absolutely could not afford to have any mishap.
"Oh, actually there’s nothing too serious. This toxin doesn’t damage body functions but does cause some hallucinations. For a superpower user, it should last about twenty-four hours," Mou Weifeng explained.
"Alas, I did warn you guys not to smell it, but he insisted. Learned his lesson this time, hasn’t he?" Mou Weifeng shook his head, speaking with a surprising sense of maturity.
