Chapter 521 Solving Lei Ji

Chapter 521 Solving Lei Ji

After being shouted at by Master Ci Ji, Master Lei Ji really started to get scared.

In his impression, his senior sister always kept her emotions secret and rarely cursed or even resorted to violence like this.

After all, in today's Kunxu, it is not decent to act rashly.

In Master Lei Ji's memory, every time his senior sister went on a rampage, many people would disappear.

Some of them left this university town, some left the entire Wanfa University, and some left the university community.

Every outburst of rage is an emotional release. After the emotions are released, all that remains is the weighing of gains and losses, sacrifice what should be sacrificed, give up what should be given up, and disappear what should disappear.

And the person who disappeared this time seemed to be his apprentice.

Listening to Master Ciji's words, Master Leiji replied weakly, "Ghost? Who is the ghost?"

Lord Magnetism then said, "Is the person in the video your disciple? Do you know that he did these things? Is the problem with you?"

Master Lei Ji said with difficulty: "He...he signed a master-disciple contract with me."

Magnet Master said coldly: "So what if the contract is signed? Which of the top ten did not tear up a lot of contracts on the way to rise?"

"If the contract can control everything, what is the use of the Heavenly Court?"

"It's not him, and it's not you. Is it me? Is there something wrong with me? I'm a ghost, right?"

Master Lei Ji lowered his head and remained silent. His projection also shrank a circle, appearing even weaker and more helpless.

Magnet Master pointed at Zhang Yu and said, "Is there something wrong with him? Did my disciple betray you?"

Master Lei Ji whispered, "How could he be your disciple, Senior Sister? He is just a civil engineer on the construction site, and he is only building his foundation, how could it be him?"

True Lord Ciji glared at True Lord Leiji coldly: "It's no problem to do civil engineering? It's impossible to build a foundation? I have already dealt with Yuanying when I was building a foundation!"

After saying this, Lord Ci Ji took a deep breath, and the entire office suddenly became quiet, with no one speaking anymore.

Just as the air was becoming increasingly oppressive, Magnetism Master spoke again with a deadpan expression: "In addition to your disciple, write down the names of five more of your subordinates and put the blame on them."

"How much money have you taken over the years? Spit out half of it."

"Everyone is focused on this matter now. We must reach an agreement and put an end to it today."

Upon hearing what Master Ci Ji said, Master Lei Ji's heart twitched again.

Sending out five more people...wasn't too bad for him, but when he thought about giving away half of the hard-earned money he had saved over the years, Master Lei Ji felt as if the magic power circuit in his body was about to break.

Lei Ji Zhenjun said with difficulty: "Senior sister, that is my retirement and longevity money."

Hearing this, Master Ciji laughed and said, "Do you know how many people in and outside this school don't want your senior sister to achieve the state of incarnation?"

"You don't want to pay? No problem, then you can come out and take responsibility for this matter."

Master Lei Ji lowered his head and said nothing. His figure shrank again, this time becoming shorter than Zhang Yu.

Magnet Master said coldly: "Okay, I'll give you an hour to get things done."

"Go back to the lab and don't interfere in department affairs."

Looking at the gradually disappearing projection of Master Lei Ji into the spiritual world, Master Ci Ji sighed with a complicated expression.

She rubbed Zhang Yu's head and said calmly, "My junior brother is getting more and more confused as he gets older."

"When he was young, he was also a well-known genius. It didn't take him much longer than it did for me to reach the Nascent Soul stage."

"But since he reached Nascent Soul stage, he has gradually become lazy."

"Although he was excited for a while after entering university, after repeated failures in competitions, the school provided him with fewer and fewer resources, and he gradually became disheartened. He stopped learning the latest refining techniques and stopped going to the laboratory. He spent his days working for others, and eventually ended up like this."

"He is relieved, but has he ever thought about how difficult it is for me to be like this?"

Magnet Master sighed, "But if I get rid of him, what will the other old men who have followed me all the way think?"

"If I don't protect him if something small happens, many people will think I've lost my power and that I'm no longer capable."

"I put him in the place where he is least likely to make mistakes, but he still makes trouble for me..."

Listening to Master Ciji's sigh, Zhang Yu said seriously: "Teacher, I will never slack off. I will work hard to climb up and follow you closely."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Master Ciji smiled, touched Zhang Yu's head, and held him in his arms: "Remember what happened today, and don't learn from your uncle in the future."

At the same time, the video footage kept appearing in the mind of Master Ci Ji.

The angle at which the video was shot was too tricky, as if it was following everyone all the way and filming closely.

However, subsequent investigations found no traces of the photographer left at the scene.

All this shows how great the photographer is.

"Whose man is it?"

Names emerged in the mind of Master Ci Ji, some from inside the school and some from outside the school.

"Golden Palace Lord?"

"Or is it Immortal Soldiers University? King Kong University?"

"Or maybe it's Netherworld University?"

There are too many people who might prevent her from achieving the state of god transformation, and Master Ci Ji cannot be sure which sect the current incident is related to. He just becomes more alert and feels more and more the difficulties and obstacles on the road to god transformation.

In the next few days, Master Lei Ji took the initiative to resign from his original management position, and his disciple Bian Hao and his five subordinates also disappeared.

The Equipment Refining Department was calm and peaceful, and the students knew nothing about all this.

If Zhang Yu had not been observing all this, he would probably have thought that nothing had happened.

And on this day, as soon as he walked out of the laboratory, he received a message from Master Lei Ji.

Master Lei Ji: My nephew, how have you been lately?

Zhang Yu: Master, we'd better not address each other as disciples in school. I'm afraid that Master will think it has a bad influence.

Seeing the message Zhang Yu sent back, the magic circuit in Master Lei Ji's body shook violently.

"The villain succeeds."

Master Lei Ji finally suppressed the anger in his heart. After all, his current situation was already extremely bad.

The money he paid out had a significant impact on his life extension plan, and his originally planned life expectancy was greatly shortened.

The loss of his position and his disciples meant that he could not expect any income growth in the next few years, and his life expectancy was expected to decrease day by day.

And through what he saw in the laboratory last time, Master Lei Ji realized that Zhang Yu was now in favor with Master Ci Ji.

"My senior sister is buried in the laboratory all day long. She is more familiar with the laboratory than her own cave. She studies her own experimental disciples every day, so naturally she feels close to them."

"If Zhang Yu is willing to help me blow some dust on the lab bench, he can also let Senior Sister praise me as a good junior brother."

Thinking of this, Master Lei Ji suppressed his anger and continued to communicate with Zhang Yu.

Master Lei Ji: Student Zhang Yu, you are talking about

After Zhang Yu talked to the other party for a few words, he understood the other party's intention.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "You want me to say something good for you without paying?"

"The older you get, the more confused you become."

Zhang Yu casually set the other party to receive messages but not remind him, and then went about his own business.

Not long after, Zhang Yu received another message from Juxing Zhenren.

Juxing Zhenren: Hello Zhang Yu, I will temporarily take over the work of Lei Ji Zhenjun.

Juxing Zhenren: If you have any problems with the project in the future, just hand it over to me

After Zhang Yu greeted the other party, he was pulled into the work group by this Juxing Zhenren.

I saw the other party speaking in the group: Everyone, I am different from Master Lei Ji. I only focus on work and hate messy things.

Juxing Zhenren: As long as everyone works hard on the project, there will be no evil tendencies here.

Juxing Zhenren: Also, don’t even think about sending me money

Juxing Zhenren: I hate this the most. If anyone plays this trick on me, don’t blame me for being ruthless.

Someone immediately replied: When Juxing Zhenren comes, Qingtian will come.

After reading the messages in the group for a while, just when Zhang Yu was secretly wondering whether the other party was really as righteous as he said, he was added as a friend by the disciple of Master Juxing.

Only then did he realize that if he was willing to pay 1 spirit coin to buy something in the designated online store, his project payment would be credited to his account quickly.

"One spirit coin? Only one spirit coin?"

Zhang Yu sighed, "He is indeed an honest official."

Fu Ji said, "It was like this at the beginning. After all, Master Lei Ji had just gone down, so how could he dare to charge more money?"

"But he can't accept it either. If he doesn't accept it, how can his leader accept it? If the leader doesn't accept it, how can Magnet Master accept it?"

"But as time goes by, after a few years, I'm afraid he will eat more and more."

Zhang Yu said, "We'll talk about the future later. In a few years, he'll have collected so many that we won't know what the situation is."

Zhang Yu knew that he had to compete for the top ten leagues, so he was looking at the next few years and didn't have time to look too far ahead.

With the arrival of the first payment for the project, the balance in Zhang Yu’s account suddenly exceeded 30 spirit coins.

Although a lot of money will be deducted for salary payments and tax payments in the future, this represents a positive growth of funds.

As the days passed, the project ran steadily. In addition to taking a few days every month to go to the construction site in person, Zhang Yu's employees brought him passive income every day.

While Zhang Yu continued to spend money to improve his weapon-refining skills, he was gradually able to take on more types of weapon-refining orders.

In this way, refining equipment and civil engineering went hand in hand, gradually allowing Zhang Yu to save 20 to 30 spirit coins a month, preparing for the subsequent construction of the prototype of a military-grade magic weapon.

mid-may

In the dormitory that day, Zhang Yu rarely infused magic power into Yu Xinghan, improving his magic power level and quality.

With the breakthrough of the last level, Yu Xinghan's magic power finally reached 1000, the limit of the foundation-building period.

Feeling the powerful magic power in his body, Yu Xinghan suddenly had an idea the next moment, and found that the third eye in his mind was vibrating, as if it had started to develop again.

Zhang Yu also discovered that Yu Xinghan's Dao Seed Three-Eyed Divine Ability had been upgraded from level 2 to level 3.
