Chapter 95: The Arrogant Qingcheng Sect Disciple (Part 1)

  PS: Thank you to reader '缥缈的忧郁' for the 1888 reward, thank you to reader '书友131227001053195' for the 300 reward. Today is already Friday, and next week's recommended position for "Mystery of the Missing" is strong push in the category. This also means that this book will not be on the shelves at the beginning of next month, I estimate it will be mid-month or even the beginning of the following month. After all, the results are placed here, and everyone can see that the recommendation votes have just exceeded 3,000, and the collections have just barely exceeded 5,000. With such results, how could it possibly go on sale? I'm also quite helpless about this, but since things have already come to this point, we can only continue to work hard and hope that next month's results will improve.

  ...The next day, Lin Xiao walked to school as usual.

  In the morning, there was only one class. After finishing the class, Lin Xiao prepared to go to the school library to find some books on cell biology and atomic physics to take a look. On the one hand, he wanted to enrich his knowledge; on the other hand, he also hoped to gain some inspiration from the books. Recently, he had been thinking about how to use his mind power to directly control atoms. Even if it couldn't be done temporarily, at least there was a goal, right?

  Lin Xiao was a frequent visitor to the school library, having often come here to read and look up materials in the past. Although he no longer took his studies so seriously now, after all, humans reading books and acquiring knowledge were not just about enriching their own knowledge, but more about finding a good job and earning more money. And for Lin Xiao, money was just a pile of paper, with a small mountain-sized pile in his system space, there was no need to worry about it at all.

  After walking for five or six minutes, Lin Xiao had already arrived at the entrance of the university library. As he walked into the library, a strong smell of books hit his nose. The entire Lin Hai University Library stored countless books, perhaps only the librarian knew the exact number.

  "There are still many people." Lin Xiao glanced over and smiled as he walked in.

  There are indeed many people, but those who really come to look up information and read books are less than half.

  Lin Xiao rushed to his target bookshelf, his eyes quickly scanning the rows of books on it, and soon pulled out one after another cell biology related books.

  Ten minutes later, Lin Xiao walked out with a stack of books that was at least half a meter high. He casually found an empty spot and put the books down before pulling up a chair to sit down.

  Lin Xiao carefully opened the first book and started reading it.

  He reads books very quickly, but he remembers every single word in the book clearly, probably for his whole life. In just over ten minutes, he has already finished reading a two-centimeter-thick book.

  One hand put down the book that had been read and Lin Xiao's other hand picked up another book to start reading.

  Some nearby classmates looked at him with curiosity, wondering why this senior (junior) could read so fast. Some were curious, while others sneered, thinking that Lin Xiao was pretending to be cultured.

  Lin Xiao had long been mentally prepared for this and didn't care about their opinions at all.

  More than two hours had passed, and it was approaching twelve o'clock noon. Lin Xiao closed the last book, took a deep breath into his lungs, and stretched lazily.

  "Finally finished!" Lin Xiao stretched his slightly stiff arms and picked up a stack of books to leave the seat.

  A few minutes later, Lin Xiao was walking towards the school cafeteria. It was almost twelve o'clock and he had been so engrossed in his book that he had forgotten about the time, nearly missing lunch.

  Lin Xiao was walking along when several boys suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

  "What are you looking for me?" Lin Xiao looked at the three people in front of him with a puzzled expression, he didn't remember knowing these three people.

  "Are you Lin Xiao?" The other person pointed at Lin Xiao and said with a proud and arrogant tone.

  Lin Xiao furrowed his brow and nodded slightly.

  "Not bad, it's me."

  "It's you." The other party let out a disdainful cold snort from his nostrils, and without another word, directly threw a punch over.

  With a swift motion, Lin Xiao caught the incoming fist with a speed several times faster than his opponent's, his gaze piercing as he looked at them. With a light pull of his arm, he dodged to the side and lifted his right leg up, his knee instantly and heavily colliding with his opponent's chest.

  "Hmmph!"

  The other party let out a low grunt and his body rushed forward a certain distance before falling to the ground.

  The other two men, one glance, mouths shouting abuse, while waving their fists and kicking their legs towards Lin Xiao. Unfortunately, the movements of the two people in Lin Xiao's eyes were like slow motion, he lightly turned his body to dodge the attacks of the two people, grabbed the collars of the two people with both hands, and directly threw them to the ground.

  "Give you one minute, tell me the reason, or else you're ready to go to the hospital." Lin Xiao indifferently looked at the three people on the ground, his right leg lifted and stepped on the chest of the person in the middle, the force was not great, but enough to make him unable to get up.

  "Don't mess around!" The other side was somewhat panicked, clearly not expecting things to turn out this way. Especially the guy who was being trampled under Lin Xiao's foot, he struggled desperately but couldn't break free, his face turning bright red.

  At this time, the commotion here had already attracted the attention of many passing students. They came forward to watch and pointed at the three people on the ground, some even with a smile on their faces, making the three people's faces full of shame and anger.

  "It's still forty-five seconds." Lin Xiao said calmly.

  "Let me go! Don't make me call my brother and have you look good!"

  "Thirty seconds."

  "Let me go!"

  "Twenty seconds."

  "I'm telling you, I'm telling you!"

  Lin Xiao smiled and looked at him, saying: "Speak up, who made you come here?"

  "It's..." The other person's eyes rolled back and forth, with a look of wanting to say something but not daring to.

  At this moment, someone outside the crowd was suddenly pushed away rudely, and four figures immediately walked in from outside.

  "It was I who brought them here." The leader of the four looked at Lin Xiao with a proud face, his eyes scanning over the other three, and a hint of cold light flashed in his eyes.

  "Rubbish!"

  Lin Xiao moved his foot away and turned around to look at these four people.

  "You guys?" Lin Xiao vaguely remembered these four, seemingly also warriors among this year's new students, and unexpectedly they were looking for trouble with him today.

  "You're Lin Xiao, right?" The other person looked at Lin Xiao with a proud expression. "From today on, I don't allow you to take another step closer to Yan Qingqing. If I find out, your two legs won't be necessary anymore."

  "Our big brother is talking to you, did you hear that?" someone next to him shouted at Lin Xiao with disdain.

  "Oh! So that's the reason. Lin Xiao smiled slightly, his eyes scanning the four of them, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. "What if I refuse? Will you break my legs?"

  He raised an eyebrow and let out a cold snort.

  "You don't know what's good for you, you have no idea who you're talking to!" The other party's words were laced with meaning, essentially implying that Lin Xiao, an ordinary person, wasn't qualified to converse with them, a group of martial artists. Little did they know, however, that Lin Xiao was also a martial artist, and a rare one at that - an ability wielder.

  "King Yu, give him a lesson." The other party waved his hand with disdain and ordered one of the people beside him to teach Lin Xiao a lesson.

  That Wang just now was the person who had pretended to be a tiger earlier, and at this moment, after hearing his master brother's order, he couldn't help but sneak out with a sly smile on his face, rubbing his hands together and making a "crackling" sound like stir-frying beans.

  "Listen up, kid! Remember it was me, Wang Hu, who beat you today. I'm always ready for you to come and seek revenge!"

  Wang Yun was obviously very confident in his own strength, and had never considered Lin Xiao to be an evenly matched opponent. In his opinion, this ordinary person who had only practiced a few hand-to-hand combat moves could be easily defeated with just three or five moves, and wasn't even on the same level as him.
