Chapter 354: Kneeling

Translator:Henyee TranslationsEditor:Henyee Translations

There were a dozen humans sitting at the conference table in the principal's office.

They were the most skilled and famous group of people in Ping City. They had countless supporters behind them. Some were big shots of gangs, some were the leaders of families, and there were also powerful people like Hu Jiujiu.

Everyone, school is about to start. You should take out the detailed teaching outline as soon as possible.

Hu Jiujiu looked at the people below in dissatisfaction. These were all capable people she had recruited to support their emerging academy.

However, they had originally discussed that they would teach normally. According to the normal process, they should have already prepared the teaching outline they had formulated and submitted it to the management of the academy.

In a few days, their huge academy will officially open for teaching. However, so far, they had not received a teaching outline from anyone.

Initially, Hu Jiujiu had been extremely busy these few days. On one hand, she had to personally supervise the expansion of the entire Ping City.

On the other hand, Li Yuanqing suddenly issued a new order. He said that a new round of danger had appeared. Although Hu Jiujiu did not know how dangerous it was, she still began to make preparations early on. She cooperated with Little Man and formulated a rough defense plan.

Little Man did not have much time recently. They would build a framework first. They could start construction early. After the general framework was completed, it would be much simpler to perfect the details later.

There was also the chaotic security outside the city. Recently, because of the establishment of the academy, the overall management had become slightly lax compared to before, causing some criminals to take the opportunity to be arrogant.

These things were all intertwined, causing her, the City Lord, to be in a terrible fix. The most infuriating thing was that it was almost time, but these reputable teachers and professors were all hiding their things and refusing to hand over a teaching outline.

Hu Jiujiu was forced to come here personally and hold such a meeting with them. It could be said that she was personally pressuring them.

City Lord, you're being too biased.

The person who spoke was an old woman with gray hair. Although the old lady's hair was white, she was in good spirits. There were no wrinkles on her face, and she looked no different from a woman in her thirties or forties.

Hu Jiujiu turned to look at her and said, Matriarch Zhang, I did promise everyone that I would invite the Sword Immortal to personally teach and impart knowledge to everyone, but we can't delay the start of school just because I agreed to this matter. We should still take care of the start of school first. We can talk about other things slowly. Since I personally promised, I definitely won't go back on my word.

Matriarch Zhang looked at the people at the side and said with a fake smile, City Lord, we all know that you're all very trustworthy. However, we're all inexperienced. If there's no Sword Immortal to personally guide us, we won't be able to impart any knowledge. I'm afraid we'll all become people who mislead others.

After she finished speaking, the group of people beside her echoed and shouted, That's right. We can't show our skills. We still have to ask the Sword Immortal to personally guide us. Only with the Sword Immortal's guidance can we go down and educate the children, right? It's not a good idea to drag it out like this. City Lord, look at this.

Our Li family's Qingyun cultivation technique is not considered a profound cultivation technique. I'm afraid we really can't teach it to our students. Why don't we wait for a period of time? Can't we talk about school when the Sword Immortal comes?

The group below echoed and chattered.

Hu Jiujiu was here personally, yet they were still refusing. There was really no sincerity to speak of.

Hu Jiujiu still had a headache. Although she had been the City Lord for a long time, she could not rush this school. If it was anything else, she could use some forceful methods to force these big families to submit.

However, Li Yuanqing had long instructed everyone to willingly impart the knowledge they had learned to achieve the best effect.

If they refused to agree no matter what, it would be meaningless for her to force them to move forward. She would not be able to complete the mission given by Young Master.

The people below were still chattering non-stop. They were all greedy for this advantage. After hearing that Hu Jiujiu wanted to personally invite the Sword Immortal out, they happily agreed to come here to teach.

If not for such a condition, none of them would have foolishly run over and taught everyone what they had learned in their lives. Wouldn't that be handing over their entire foundation?

Hu Jiujiu was furious at their rejection and slapped the table.

Enough!

A huge aura spread out from Hu Jiujiu's body and instantly stunned the entire venue.

The originally noisy crowd fell silent. They were as quiet as chicks as they looked at Hu Jiujiu carefully.

This City Lord's strength was getting more and more profound.

Not many humans had reached the Formation Arrangement Realm, but their City Lord was now a second-grade Formation Arrangement Realm expert. This strength was unparalleled among the humans in the entire Demon Realm.

Hu Jiujiu's right to speak was still very important to the human race. Even if they do not respect her as the City Lord, they had to show some respect to the hardness of her fist.

A burly man beside her smiled awkwardly and leaned towards Hu Jiujiu.

City Lord, let's talk nicely. If you really want us to teach those kids, it's actually easy. However, this teaching outline is indeed troublesome. We cultivators have never done this before. It's a little difficult.

That's right. We're actually very happy to teach them everything we've learned in our lives. It's just that it's a little troublesome to come up with the teaching outline. How about this, why don't we skip this teaching outline?

Hu Jiujiu looked up at them coldly. None of these can be missing.

Well It's not impossible. If only you could give us two more days.

That's right. Time is really tight.

Just as they were conflicted, Hu Jiujiu's expression suddenly changed. Something was wrong.

The City Lord's expression changed, and the people below also tensed up. They carefully stared at Hu Jiujiu, afraid that she would be angry because of this.

Hu Jiujiu's expression was very serious, as if she was thinking about something very important. She looked more or less a little scary.

Another younger woman at the side could not sit still anymore and hurriedly said, I think everyone shouldn't delay anymore. Since the City Lord said that this matter is so urgent, it's for the sake of the entire human race. This is a huge matter for the entire human race. If we continue to delay, I'm afraid we don't know when school will start.

As soon as she said that, someone immediately echoed.

That's right. It's all for the sake of the human children. I don't think this matter can be delayed. Why doesn't everyone start early? I don't think this teaching outline is very difficult.

They did not want to stay here for a moment longer, afraid that Hu Jiujiu would fly into a rage and deal with them all. This City Lord's methods were not as weak as when she first took power. This City Lord was famous for being strong-willed.

Moreover, Hu Jiujiu had a deep understanding of the forces of the humans below. Therefore, she could easily control them.

Since everyone thinks that's fine, I think everyone should disperse. Hurry up and go back to pack. We're ready.

They seemed to have settled this matter while chatting and laughing. However, Hu Jiujiu did not say anything, and no one dared to leave their seats. These people waited in fear.

Wait a minute.

The air in the entire meeting room instantly froze. Everyone held their breaths and waited quietly for the City Lord to continue.

Hu Jiujiu turned around as if she was waiting for something.

Aren't you all waiting for the Sword Immortal to come? The Sword Immortal is already here.

What? The Sword Immortal is already here?

Where is the Sword Immortal now? Why doesn't he appear and meet everyone?

Sword Immortal, we've heard a lot about you. I hope you can get what you want.

Originally, although they were also reserved, they still more or less spoke to their City Lord and did not feel too suppressed. However, when they heard that the Sword Immortal was about to arrive, everyone immediately became pure. They looked around with respect and waited for this legendary figure to appear.

This was a great hero who had saved the human race countless times. If not for the Sword Immortal, their human race would have been tattered.

It was the Sword Immortal who had allowed the human race to gain a foothold in the Demon Realm and the entire Catacombs world. All of this was thanks to the Sword Immortal. Today, they were lucky enough to see the legendary Sword Immortal with their own eyes. This was a huge gift to them.

Under everyone's admiring gazes, a wooden little person had appeared in Hu Jiujiu's palm. The little person was only the size of a palm, and its eyes and nose were decent.

The kid's expression was still very lively. He was simply like a living little fellow.

No one noticed when the little guy appeared.

The puppet jumped down from Hu Jiujiu's palm and onto the table. It stood in front of Hu Jiujiu and looked ahead at everyone present.

These people looked at the little doll with different expressions, not knowing what expression to make. It would be too rash to say that such a palm-sized thing was the legendary Sword Immortal. However, the City Lord had already said so. Could it be that it was fake?

However, the problem was that the Sword Immortal in their hearts was tall, mighty, brave, and good at fighting. Only such an image could support all their imagination of a Sword Immortal.

But now, all these fantasies were shattered. The Sword Immortal in their imagination was actually such a pitiful little fellow who was less than ten inches tall?

As everyone watched, the little doll walked forward step by step. It took about a dozen steps to reach a place slightly closer to everyone and look at the professors sitting behind the long conference table.

They were still imagining what it would be like to meet the Sword Immortal for the first time and what expression they should use. However, at this moment, the little guy suddenly made a sound.

It's been hard on everyone. You've worked hard for the academy.

After saying that, the little guy looked around and swept his gaze across everyone's faces.

Although it looked like a very cute little toy, this fellow vaguely gave off a very strong pressure. When his gaze landed on their faces, the pressure became very obvious. It was as if the ruler of this entire space had peeked into their hearts. That feeling made them panic from the bottom of his hearts.

The little figure's bewildered gaze finally landed on the old woman.

This old lady really wanted to maintain her high status and say something with a very high image. At the very least, she should not bow down to such a palm-sized thing.

However, the old lady could not speak for a long time. She felt a powerful pressure on her body, suffocating her. In the end, she could only bend down heavily and let out a long breath.

She looked at the doll standing less than thirty inches in front of her and said with trembling lips, Sword Immortal!

There was a collective gasp.

They did not know if Matriarch Zhang had discussed it with the City Lord before acting like this. They only knew that with Matriarch Zhang's strength, she was enough to be ranked at the top among everyone. Otherwise, she would not be sitting so close to the City Lord.

However, this powerful old lady, such a powerful person, now had to use such an attitude to speak to a very comical little doll.

The puppet looked at Matriarch Zhang in satisfaction and said, I've heard that your Zhang family has developed very quickly in the past few months. You've already covered most of the area north of Ping City. You're about to become the number one family in Ping City.

These words confused Matriarch Zhang.
