Chapter 1045: Could I Possibly Be Your Illegitimate Son?

Translator: Lordbluefire

“Dean!”

Everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Regardless of his cultivation base, knowledge, or status, Bai Wenzhang was at the very top. He was one of the three standing at the forefront of the study of spirit runes.

Even Yan Sui, who was at the ancestor level, immediately smiled after he saw the person applauding was Bai Wenzhang.

“Time is too pressing. So my vision is a little too short-sighted, seeking for instant benefit.”

Bai Wenzhang blamed himself. “They are doing this because they feel heartache for the dean, me, and want to help me with my worries.”

“Dean!”

The assistants immediately felt incomparably moved. Even Yan Sui felt the anger in his heart fading away.

Sun Mo clasped his hands.

A major character was acknowledging his mistake and giving him face. What else could he do?

If he continued pursuing the topic, that would not be tactful.

Xiao Feng who was at the side was completely stunned.

(Bai Wenzhang, who has always been doing what he wanted to without giving a damn to others, is actually explaining things to Sun Mo?)

(Why is this brat qualified?)

(Damn!)

“How have you been recently?”

Bai Wenzhang chatted idly. He walked to the operating table and inspected the body of No. 30. After that, his eyes brightened as he spoke in praise.

“As expected of God Hands, the recovery effect is simply too perfect.”

Yan Sui and the others nodded.

“Dean is praising me too much!”

Sun Mo humbly replied.

“Do you want to accompany me for a walk?”

Bai Wenzhang invited Sun Mo.

The group of assistants was stunned. After that, they glanced at Yan Sui.

The dean clearly had private matters he wanted to speak with Sun Mo about. One must know that Bai Wenzhang was only interested in the study of spirit runes and nothing else. However, he actually wanted to chat with another person now?

Even Yan Sui, who had followed him the longest, didn’t get to be alone with Bai Wenzhang that often. Also, the matters they discussed were all official stuff.

Xiao Feng’s expression remained unchanged, but his fists were clenched even more tightly.

(What does Teacher want exactly? Why is he treating Sun Mo so well?)

…

“You have a good disciple!”

As they stood in the garden, Bai Wenzhang glanced enviously at Li Ziqi who stopped not far away.

Ever since he last saw Sun Mo, he had been paying attention to him, wanting to see if there was any chance of headhunting Sun Mo to become his assistant.

However, who could have known that Sun Mo’s performance would simply be so shockingly outstanding?

“Actually, the children you have here are all also very outstanding.”

Sun Mo tactfully persuaded.

“I have sinned.”

Bai Wenzhang revealed a self-mocking smile. “However, I have no way to stop now. The instant I was in charge of this place, I had to carry out the mission placed on my shoulder. But after I die, if there is hell, I’m willing to go there to suffer to compensate for the sins I’ve done.”

Sun Mo fell silent. This topic was too depressing.

“What do you think of this world?”

Bai Wenzhang asked.

(Is this a college interview?)

Sun Mo silently mocked but he still replied seriously, “This concept is too large. I’m just a minor character that lives in Jinling. I only want to be good at the things I’m doing.

“As for the direction the world is heading in, whether it becomes good or bad, that isn’t something I can control.

“However, I hope that those with authority and power can be worthy of their status. They shouldn’t work for themselves but for all of humanity to be able to live a better life. They should do their utmost to remove war and hunger, making this world better and better.”

Bai Wenzhang nodded. This answer was something conforming to the rules of society. He then continued to ask.

“What sort of world do you want?”

Sun Mo stared at the sky. It was currently noon and the sunlight made people feel very lazy.

“A world where everyone can do whatever they like to.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Wenzhang started before he broke into laughter involuntarily.

“A beautiful dream. Sadly, as long as humans possess desires, it’s impossible for the world you want to appear.”

Bai Wenzhang sighed.

Sun Mo shrugged.

“What sort of life do you want?”

Bai Wenzhang asked again.

“A life where my value can be realized?”

Sun Mo actually considered it seriously before. “Right now, I just want to teach more students and help them to make something of themselves, becoming a leader to them.

“It’s impossible for life to restart. So, what I can do is to let the students recall their lives when they have one foot in their grave. At the very least, they should have fewer regrets and would be able to say proudly that they have worked hard before, that they have succeeded before and had a splendid life.”

“I suddenly understand why you can have your current achievements.”

Bai Wenzhang turned and surveyed Sun Mo.

He didn’t expect a 22-year-old young man to have such mature thoughts.

“The third question, what is your opinion on spirit runes?”

This was a question specially targeted at the spirit rune domain.

“For some subjects, when they are developed to their absolute limits, they will generate immense influence on the world. Spirit runes are one of these subjects. I feel that it has more influence compared to alchemy and weapon forging.”

Knowledge of different subjects had no distinctions on whether they were superior or inferior. However, there was a difference in the influence they generated.

Bai Wenzhang nodded. After deliberating for a while, he spoke, “The spirit qi fluctuations in the Nine Provinces are growing increasingly irregular. Moreover, in terms of its entirety, the spirit qi fluctuations showed clear signs of declining.”

Sun Mo was clueless. What did this mean?

“Simply speaking, if this trend continues, maybe in a thousand years or several hundred years, spirit qi will dry up, and the world will enter an ‘end of times.”

Bai Wenzhang revealed.

“Huh?”

Sun Mo was shocked. “You mean that the end of the world might be coming?”

(Please, I just got successful in becoming famous and managed to stay in a huge villa with a beautiful fiancee. Yet, you are telling me that the world is going to end?)

“Naturally, that’s only our conjecture.” Bai Wenzhang chortled. “However, I truly do not have much time left.”

Sun Mo frowned and looked at Bai Wenzhang. “I might have to act impudently. Could you allow me to inspect you?”`

“There’s no need for that!”

Bai Wenzhang shook his head.

Sun Mo didn’t care about it. He directly placed his hand on Bai Wenzhang’s shoulder while activating Divine Sight.

This time around, Sun Mo saw some data.

Bai Wenzhang was very powerful!

As expected of a hegemon that was also an ancestor. However, why the hell was his lifeforce rapidly dwindling?

(No wonder I always feel that Bai Wenzhang looks sickly. So, he is about to die! So, this is the reason why you are so eager to proceed with the experiments?)

Sun Mo suddenly understood. Bai Wenzhang wanted to complete his research before he died.

Bai Wenzhang actually still had a little hope. He wasn’t afraid of death, but dying now was too early. However, when he saw the heavy look on Sun Mo’s face, he knew that Sun Mo also had no way to help him.

“What is your opinion on those children?”

Bai Wenzhang asked.

“I don’t know.” action

Sun Mo didn’t dare to give an evaluation.

In the modern world, he had seen many ‘reversal news’.

Good people might not really be good. Bad people might not really be bad.

He should wait and evaluate things further.

“I thought you would feel pity for them?”

Bai Wenzhang laughed.

“Somewhat.”

Sun Mo nodded.

“Many of them are orphans or are sold by their parents. Naturally, some were sold to us by kidnappers. However, I’ve done my best to try and locate their families.

“For those with no talent, I will give them some money and freedom, allowing them to seek their livelihood themselves. After that, I’ll retain those whose aptitudes are not bad.”

Bai Wenzhang self-mocked again. “Do you feel it’s an irony? The talented ones have to suffer this instead!”

“Can we change the topic?”

Sun Mo bitterly smiled. He truly didn’t want to continue as it was very unbearable.

“Alright, let’s change the topic!”

Bai Wenzhang stood below a willow tree. “From what I see of Jiang Leng, you are able to treat these abandoned children, right?”

“I just so nicely wanted to converse with you regarding this matter. Can you lend me an operating room for use? I wish to treat all of them!”

Sun Mo’s tone was resolute.

He was prepared to pay a huge price. He also recalled that the reason why Jiang Leng could leave the Dragonspirit Manor was that he had once been the strongest genius here, and Bai Wenzhang pitied him.

The others wouldn’t have such preferential treatment.

After all, even though the spirit runes on their bodies were damaged, they contained an immensely great research value.

“Sure, but I will arrange for researchers to observe your massaging techniques.”

Bai Wenzhang imposed a condition.

“Alright!”

Sun Mo nodded.

After hearing Sun Mo agreeing so quickly, Bai Wenzhang was astonished. “Are you not afraid? To high star-ranking great teachers, their learning ability is very strong. It’s easy for them to learn your technique secretly!”

“It doesn’t matter. Whoever can learn it, simply means that the person is capable!” Sun Mo looked at Bai Wenzhang. “I need the detailed information of those students.”

“No problem!”

Bai Wenzhang surveyed Sun Mo and discovered that he truly wasn’t bothered that the secrets of his Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands might be leaked. Sun Mo’s heart state was truly vast and he couldn’t help but praise him.

“You already have the bearing of an ancestor!”

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Bai Wenzhang +500. Respect (6,100/10,000).

“I still have two important things that I might need to speak with you about. But those can wait until the treatment ends.”

Bai Wenzhang suggested. “Let’s start the treatment process five days later. How about it?”

“Sure!”

Sun Mo understood that the effect of the treatment would decide whether Bai Wenzhang would discuss those two important matters with him or not. It would also decide whether he would really be able to win Bai Wenzhang’s trust and respect.

Ding!

“Mission issued: Convince Ban Wenzhang. Rewards will be given according to the results.”

The system gave a mission in a timely manner.

“Oh right, did you decipher the first world-class difficulty question?”

Bai Wenzhang was curious.

“It cannot be considered that I have deciphered it. I only have some clues that the key to unraveling it lies in using some sort of language.”

Sun Mo didn’t reveal that he knew the Xisi Language.

“I feel so as well!”

Bai Wenzhang nodded. “That globe shall be given to you.”

“Ah?”

Sun Mo started. (Are you not too generous?)

“I feel that it should be a map!”

Bai Wenzhang laughed. “Who knows, it might be pointing to a place in the Darkness Continent. If that was the case, you would have struck it rich.”

“This gift is too precious!”

Sun Mo stared at Bai Wenzhang’s wise and farsighted gaze and understood that Bai Wenzhang knew that he understood this language, but Bai Wenzhang didn’t expose it. He even helped Sun Mo by gifting him with the globe.

(You are treating me so well. Could I be your legitimate son?)

…

Bai Wenzhang’s efficiency was very fast. He had arranged a room for Sun Mo by the afternoon and even sent many sets of information over. One must know that these were all absolutely confidential documents. Outsiders were forbidden from reading them.

Hence, Xiao Feng immediately went to find Bai Wenzhang when he learned of this.

“Teacher, why do you have to show him all those things?”

Xiao Feng felt very vexed.

“He is a man that I admire!”

Bai Wenzhang explained.

“Is he going to join our Dragonspirit Manor?”

Xiao Feng frowned.

“No!”

Bai Wenzhang laughed. “He is a new rising superstar that is in the brightest of all limelights in the Nine Provinces. Even if his brain was damaged, he wouldn’t come here!”

“Why do you have to show him those sets of information then?”

Xiao Feng didn’t understand. “It’s fine if ordinary people read those as they wouldn’t understand. But Sun Mo might be able to learn many things.”

“So what?”

Bai Wenzhang was surprised. “Knowledge is something that exists for people to learn. I’ve never said before that I won’t permit the knowledge of the manor from being spread outside!”

Xiao Feng felt so depressed that he wanted to cry. (Why weren’t you as generous before?)

(No, I have to think of a way to stop this.)
