Chapter 192 Qin Xiyuan

"This companion pet is called the Heavenly Crane. It was left here by the epic-level strongman Lu Jiuyun. This Heavenly Crane is extremely fast, and its fate and soul are very good..." Qin Xiyuan took Zhou Wen's hand and introduced these companion pets on the fourth underground floor to him very affectionately.

Zhou Wen felt very strange. He clearly came here to buy speed crystals, so why did Qin Xiyuan introduce these companion pets to him?

Zhou Wen tried to speak up several times to emphasize his purpose, but he couldn't find a chance to interrupt.

In fact, Ouyang Lan had already told Zhou Wen about the companion pets here when she brought him here last time, but Qin Xiyuan was so enthusiastic that Zhou Wen could only listen patiently.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the locked room of the silver-haired companion pet. After entering the room, Qin Xiyuan suddenly said to Zhou Wen, "Zhou Wen, you are in danger now, do you know?"

"Mr. Qin, what do you mean?" Zhou Wen looked at Qin Xiyuan in confusion.

Qin Xiyuan looked outside and saw Ah Sheng still guarding the entrance to the fourth floor. He then whispered to Zhou Wen, "Everyone in Luoyang City knows that Xiao Lan has remarried, but no one knows much about that man. At most, they know his last name is Zhou, and it's even more unlikely that they know he has a son named Zhou Wen."

"Then how do you know me?" Zhou Wen asked Qin Xiyuan.

"Ouyang told me. He said he is very optimistic about you and that you are very outstanding. If possible, he hopes you can take over his job in the future." Qin Xiyuan said.

"What job?" Zhou Wen looked at Qin Xiyuan in confusion.

Qin Xiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Ouyang is still so cautious. He thinks so highly of you, but he didn't tell you anything?"

"The old principal did praise my talent, but that was just a casual remark, so don't take it seriously." Zhou Wen paused, looked at Qin Xiyuan and asked, "Mr. Qin, isn't the old principal a history researcher? I'm not familiar with this area, nor do I have much interest in it. The old principal asked me to take over his job. You must have heard it wrong, right?"

"That's right. Ouyang gave you the password, right? See that piece of metal over there? Enter the password. The things inside are all left for you by Ouyang. They should be of some help to you." Qin Xiyuan said, pointing behind the silver-haired companion pet.

What he was pointing at was a piece of metal with an anchor pattern engraved on it. When Zhou Wen came here last time, he saw the number keys on it and wondered if it was a combination lock. He didn't expect that it really was one.

"Mr. Qin, what password did you say?" Zhou Wen thought to himself, but his face remained calm and he asked in surprise.

"Didn't Ouyang give you the password? That's bad. The things in there are all the things he left for you. You can't open it without the password. You can only wait for him to come back." Qin Xiyuan stared at Zhou Wen and said.

"The old principal left something for me? He also asked me to take over his job, but why have I never heard him mention it? When he comes back, I have to ask him about it." Zhou Wen said.

"Ouyang really didn't tell you anything?" Qin Xiyuan asked in surprise.

"When the old principal was still in Guide High School, he often chatted with me, but he didn't say he would leave anything for me. Also, what did you mean by danger just now, old man?" Zhou Wen looked at Qin Xiyuan and asked.

"The thing Ouyang left for you is very important. If others know that it is with you, it will definitely be disadvantageous to you. So you must keep it well and don't let anyone see it?" Qin Xiyuan said seriously.

"What is that?" The confusion on Zhou Wen's face was not fake. He really didn't know what the old principal left for him.

"It's a good thing that you don't know everything. Forget it, since Ouyang didn't tell you the details, let's wait until Ouyang comes back." Qin Xiyuan saw that Zhou Wen did not seem to be lying, so he said nothing more and took Zhou Wen out of the room with the silver-haired companion pet.

When Qin Xiyuan closed the door, Zhou Wen took a look at the silver-haired companion pet. Just like the last time he came, he was still sitting there with his head lowered. His long silver hair covered his face, making it difficult to see what he looked like.

However, Zhou Wen always felt that behind the waterfall of silver hair, there was a pair of eyes staring at him and smiling at him.

After coming out of the fourth underground floor, Qin Xiyuan asked someone to bring Zhou Wen a speed crystal that he needed and gave him a big discount. In the end, Zhou Wen paid 138,000 and finally got the speed crystal of 21 points.

On the way back, Zhou Wen's mind was not on the speed crystal.

"Were the numbers on the business card really given to me by the old principal? Are those numbers really used to open the metal block?" Zhou Wen had a thousand doubts in his mind, and always felt like something was wrong.

So when Qin Xiyuan said those words just now, Zhou Wen just pretended not to understand anything. In fact, he really didn't understand much.

"Old principal, what is going on?" Zhou Wen was full of doubts.

After Zhou Wen left Xiyuan Store, Qin Xiyuan sat on the chair in his office, clicking the video screen with his mouse, and repeatedly playing the entire process of his meeting and conversation with Zhou Wen.

After looking at it for a long time, Qin Xiyuan muttered to himself, "It seems I'm overthinking it. This kid must really be unaware of it. Who did that old man Ouyang give the password to? He didn't even tell his own daughter. Doesn't that old man want that thing to never see the light of day and be buried with him?"

After returning to the dormitory, Zhou Wen took out the 21-point speed crystal and tried to put it into the game.

It is very dangerous to directly absorb attribute crystals that exceed one's own level. Although Zhou Wen has a strong body, he is not willing to take the risk.

Zhou Wen was also a little worried. Legendary rank definitely had a limit to their attributes, and he didn't know what that limit was. Everyone's limit was 18, so his was obviously higher than the average person's. But whether he could reach 21, Zhou Wen had no idea.

The speed crystal successfully entered the game. When the bloody man touched the speed crystal, the speed crystal immediately turned into rays of light and merged into the bloody man's body. Zhou Wen also felt as if there was a force in his body that was merging into his muscles, making his muscles stronger and stronger.

The bloody man's speed attribute quickly increased a little, becoming 19. Not long after, it increased a little more, becoming 20.

However, until the entire speed crystal was sucked dry by the bloody man, the speed attribute did not continue to increase.

Zhou Wen's heart skipped a beat, knowing that what he was most worried about had happened. His legendary attribute cap was 20, and there was no way he could increase his speed to 21 points. Unless he was promoted to the epic level, he would not be able to learn the Longmen Flying Immortal Technique.
