Chapter 643 Illegitimate Child, No Way He Can [2 Updates]
Lore walked at the very back; he was another knight from the Sage's Court.
The knights of the Sage's Academy have a higher status than the knights of the Jade Family and the Lyinger Family.
No one else, including Luo Feng, dared to look in his direction.
White paper, red words.
It looks shocking.
[Drawing blood, taking a life]
After reading it, Luo Lei narrowed his eyes.
Slowly, I crushed the strip of paper into tiny pieces with my fingers, which then fluttered down.
The gates of the City of the World opened, and the figures of the group disappeared.
Meanwhile, the Jade Family.
Zhu Sha sat on the open-air balcony, elegantly sipping her tea.
She raised her head, looked in the direction of the gates to the City of the World, and gently pursed her lips.
Footsteps sounded; it was a knight dressed in the attire of a sage.
He clasped his hands in a fist and knelt on one knee: "Commander, Her Majesty the Queen has received all your message. Her Majesty's intention is that this is a minor matter and you may arrange it as you see fit."
Let alone the illegitimate son of the Yu family who has been living away from home, even Yu Shaoyun himself is not qualified to be noticed by the sages.
Like gods high above, the sages possess boundless compassion, but are also cold and ruthless.
Zhu Sha already knew this, which is why she sent her steward with her token to see the Wise Queen.
Before marrying into the Jade family, she was the female commander of the Holy Grail Knights, one of the four major knight orders of the Sage's Academy.
The four knightly orders are named after the scepter, the sword, the coin, and the holy grail, respectively.
Only the four major knightly orders are the ones that the Sage's Academy trusts the most.
At the same time, as direct subordinates of the twenty-two sages of the Academy of Sages, the four major knightly orders also represent the four minor arcana cards in the Tarot deck.
The twenty-two sages and the four knightly orders together form the entire Tarot card system.
But apart from the people of the City of the World, no one knows that this is the origin of the Tarot cards.
"Hmm." Zhu Sha smiled. "However, whether his blood has any special properties is still unknown. You may leave now."
The knight bowed again and left.
Zhu Sha drank tea for a while, then stood up leisurely and went to deliver food to Old Madam Yu.

At this time.
O Continent.
Manuel's Experimental Base.
He looked serious as he listened to his assistant report some information.
Upon hearing this, Manuel adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting the light: "Where did this information come from? Is it reliable?"
"It came from the prison in Florence," the assistant said. "A young lady from the Laurent family was expelled from the family for buying a thesis."
"And because she attempted to murder someone with a gun outside the airport, she is now imprisoned in an international prison in Florence. The warden says she is somewhat insane and keeps repeating the same sentence."
Manuel narrowed his eyes: "Go on."
“Ying Zijin, the top researcher? How could that be? What makes you think she is so special?” The assistant repeated, with a hint of apology. “I’m sorry, Professor, that’s all the information we have. I don’t think it’s very reliable. There’s only a 50% chance at most.”
Elizabeth's condition clearly indicates that she is somewhat mentally unstable.
Who knows if what she said is true or false?
“No, on the contrary, I think it’s 100% reliable.” Manuel smiled slightly. “Herwin was rescued in China, and it just so happened that he was in Shanghai. Although this was kept secret at the time, it is now clear that it was this Ying Zijin who saved him.”
"In addition, her knowledge is amazing. Although ISC is a competition for high school students, I dare not say that I can be better than her at solving problems."
The assistant suddenly realized: "Professor, what you mean is?"
"Have those people who kidnapped Herwin last time not contacted us again?" Manuel frowned. "Didn't they say they would definitely help us get rid of Herwin?"
Competition within academia can be bloody.
Herwin was a thorn in the side of many.
It's just that the investments from the Laurent family and the Venus Group have made many people hesitant to act.
The assistant shook his head: "No more."
Manuel pondered for a moment: "Did they say what the reason was for having to kill Herwin?"
His reason for wanting to get rid of Herwin was simple: he didn't want Herwin to dominate him in academia.
But those people are not in the same spatial dimension as them, so what conflict of interest could they possibly have?
"They didn't say anything specific, but they did say something vague when they contacted us," the assistant recalled. "They said that things like spaceships shouldn't exist."
Manuel thought for a moment and slowly nodded: "I understand. They won't allow space carriers to be invented, not even if it's just a possibility."
Traveling to other universes is a taboo for the people of the World City.
The assistant asked, "Does the professor intend to contact those people and then kill Ying Zijing?"
“Why kill her?” Manuel shook his head. “Of course we want to invite her to join our experimental project. Didn’t you check? She’s a doctor. We’re in dire need of someone like that.”
The assistant hesitated: "But getting her to join our experimental project won't be that easy, will it? She and Herwin seem to have a good relationship."
“The City of the World,” Manuel said. “Tell her about the City of the World, and she will surely come.”
The highest point of human civilization.
Who wouldn't want to go?
Manuel said calmly, "Of course, if she doesn't agree, it's better to get rid of her as soon as possible."
The assistant suddenly understood, nodded, and went to prepare.

The next day.
Ying Zijin returned to J country from Florence.
After changing into casual clothes at the hotel, she went to the supermarket.
Fortunately, she is not famous in Japan, unlike in her home country where she is known to everyone. She can only go to the supermarket fully armed.
Ying Zijing slowly pushed the shopping cart and bought half a cart of snacks first.
While shopping at the supermarket, I received a call from my female secretary.
After the call ended, Ying Zijing pushed her cart while thinking about company matters, so much so that she didn't realize where she had gone.
"Yaoyao".
Just then, a very soft, low laugh sounded behind her.
The man's voice carried a subtle, teasing quality, low and sexy.
He raised one hand, using his height advantage, and reached over her shoulder from behind, pressing it against the shelf.
Another lazy laugh followed, the tone unhurried: "The number is too small, are you trying to strangle me?"
Ying Zijing paused for a moment.
Even with her intelligence, she couldn't understand the meaning of that sentence for a moment.
It wasn't until she looked up and followed the spot where Fu Yunshen's hand was that she realized she had stopped her shopping cart in the men's clothing section.
Ying Zijing looked at the row of boxes on the shelf, and the size M on each box: "..."
For the first time, the girl's expression cracked slightly.
Fu Yunshen remained calm.
His hand moved up the shelf and landed on another size: "This one is about right."
Ying Zijing gave him a cool glance, her expression blank: "Don't flatter yourself, I didn't intend to buy it for you."
"Hmm, you don't know the size either, sweetie, you'll find out later."
The tone used to coax a child.
"..."
After a moment of silence.
"Sir."
Fu Yunshen turned his head to the side.
Ying Zijing pushed the shopping cart forward, saying, "I really didn't realize you were such a rogue before."
They really can say anything.
"Hmm?" Fu Yunshen put one hand in his pocket, raised an eyebrow, and chuckled, "I wasn't a hooligan before."
He followed and naturally took the shopping cart from her.
"I'd really like to ask you, how do you have the potential to turn people into thugs? Kid?"
He still had that cynical tone, with a touch of frivolousness.
He leaned down slightly and looked at her very intently.
The man's gaze was always sharp, but the gentle smile in his peach blossom eyes added a touch of tenderness that was irresistible.
Ying Zijing reached out and poked his face, her tone cool: "What are you doing in the supermarket?"
"To give you a shock?"
"..."
"Alright, stop fooling around." Fu Yunshen patted her head and chuckled softly. "I'll make you some spicy blood curd when we get back."
**
The two returned to the hotel.
This hotel is owned by the Venus Group.
It has all the necessary configurations.
After taking off his coat, Fu Yunshen went to the kitchen.
Ying Zijing sat on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch a drama.
The doorbell rang.
Ying Zijing stood up and went to open the door.
Outside the door stood Manuel's assistant, accompanied by two bodyguards.
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Hello, Miss Ying, I am Professor Manuel's assistant." The assistant got straight to the point. "I have heard that Miss Ying is a renowned doctor in China, and her expertise in biology and medicine must be exceptional. Professor Manuel cordially invites Miss Ying to join his laboratory."
He paused, and before the girl could speak, he continued, "Miss Ying, have you ever heard of the World City, the pinnacle of human civilization? Only by following us can you enter."
Herwin didn't have the ability to enter the City of the World; he was lucky to even be alive.
Let's drive a small car!
