Chapter 99: The Beauty of Tianhai Art University

She wore a red miniskirt and had an oval face. She looked extremely beautiful from afar. Especially in this bar with flickering neon lights, she appeared even more enchanting.

Heavily made-up and wearing a pink hat, she looked very striking. As soon as she walked out from the private room, she caught the attention of everyone around. It was at this moment that Jiang Xincheng saw her.

The woman called herself A Yun. The reason why the Flourishing Tang Empire suspected that she was Lou Haiyue was because, through surveillance cameras, they discovered she had a bank card that belonged to Lou Haiyue— an anonymous bank card that Lou Haiyue had once publicly shown.

Lou Haiyue was skilled in disguise. A Yun had previously visited several places where Lou Haiyue often stayed. Therefore, the Flourishing Tang Empire suspected that A Yun was very likely Lou Haiyue.

Jiang Xincheng appeared to walk casually, but he headed straight for A Yun. Within about a minute, Jiang Xincheng appeared behind A Yun and followed her to the women’s restroom, where A Yun intended to use the toilet.

Watching A Yun’s swaying figure and sensing the aura of the Bone Training Initial Stage emanating from her, Jiang Xincheng frowned slightly. A flicker of anticipation crossed his eyes. This A Yun was very likely the Ruthless Poison Nun, Lou Haiyue.

With her Bone Training Initial Stage strength, her heavily made-up face that resembled a disguise, and the anonymous bank card belonging to Lou Haiyue on her, Jiang Xincheng also noticed that A Yun’s steps seemed unsteady but were actually very stable. Moreover, she was ready to attack at any moment.

This indicated that A Yun was a woman with extensive combat experience, which matched the characteristics of the Ruthless Poison Nun, Lou Haiyue. Taking all this into account, the possibility that A Yun was the Ruthless Poison Nun was over eighty percent.

A faint smile touched his lips. He had searched far and wide to no avail, yet here she was, effortlessly found. He had just received this Three-Star Quest and already encountered the target. Could it be that he would complete this Three-Star Quest tonight? If so, it would save him a lot of time.

Thinking this, Jiang Xincheng surveyed his surroundings. A few meters to the left, a man and a woman were hugging and kissing, completely oblivious to everything around them. To the right, a drunk fat man was vomiting and likewise paid no attention to the restroom. The women’s restroom was temporarily empty, and although someone was in the men’s restroom, they were unlikely to be concerned with what happened in the women’s restroom.

Under these circumstances, a glint flashed in Jiang Xincheng’s eyes as he slipped into the women’s restroom. Based on his earlier observation, he quickly located the stall A Yun had entered. A cold smile crossed his lips. Just as Jiang Xincheng prepared to rush in and subdue A Yun while she was occupied with her business, the voices of two girls sounded from outside the restroom.

Jiang Xincheng’s expression changed. He moved swiftly and slipped into the stall next to A Yun. At that moment, the two girls entered the restroom.

“Break up, break up, break up, break up, you’re so despicable, blah blah blah blah, I don’t know what you’re saying, you’re so, so, so, so poisonous…”

In the adjacent stall, where A Yun was, a phone ringtone sounded. Jiang Xincheng raised his eyebrows, a smile appearing on his face. He moved closer to A Yun’s stall, pricking up his ears to listen carefully. A Yun’s voice was very low, which made Jiang Xincheng’s eyes gleam even brighter.

“What do you want? Why do you want that anonymous bank card? We stole it, but we can’t withdraw the money from it. If you want it, I’ll give it to you later. Come to the bar and get it yourself.”

“Dammit, I’m so frustrated being a Primordial Warrior at the Bone Training Initial Stage. Last night, I had just showed up when a bunch of punks overwhelmed me with sheer numbers. They beat me until my face was scratched. If not for my heavy makeup today, I would’ve been utterly humiliated. You guys are a bunch of useless idiots. Five or six big men were there, yet you sent a woman to the front. Luckily, I used to street fight and have been in many brawls, or else I would’ve been done for last night.”

“Oops, I can’t talk anymore. I have to go entertain those bosses for a while. Wait for my good news—maybe by tomorrow, your big sister will be a rich woman.”

…

After hanging up, A Yun in the stall rustled noisily as she stood up. Her movements were large and wild. Meanwhile, Jiang Xincheng in the adjacent stall was completely stunned.

So, after all that, the Flourishing Tang Empire had actually made a mistake. It seemed this A Yun next door was not the Ruthless Poison Nun, Lou Haiyue. But he wasn’t entirely sure yet. A glint flashed in Jiang Xincheng’s eyes as he decided to follow her again.

Half an hour later, Jiang Xincheng fully confirmed A Yun’s identity. She was not the Ruthless Poison Nun, Lou Haiyue, but merely a young delinquent. However, she had good natural talent and, despite her young age, had cultivated to the Bone Training Realm. As a result, she became the leader of a small gang, engaging in petty theft and mischief every day. She was not a good person, but her crimes did not warrant death.

However, because she had unintentionally stolen Lou Haiyue’s wallet and obtained some of Lou Haiyue’s belongings, and being a thief herself, her actions seemed quite suspicious. This led the Flourishing Tang Empire to suspect her and pass A Yun’s information to Jiang Xincheng, asking him to verify it.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Jiang Xincheng left the bar and headed directly to Jia Family Kitchenette near the school. His dorm brothers, Lin Anan, Xuanyuan Ningshuang, and others had been waiting for him for a long time. If he kept them waiting any longer, they would probably get angry, especially his troublesome dorm friends.

When he hurriedly arrived at Jia Family Kitchenette, Chen Dianming, Lin Anan, and the others had already eaten a fair amount. Seeing Jiang Xincheng arrive, they immediately pounced on him.

“Well, well, Second Brother, leaving us hanging here for so long. Tell us, where did you run off to have fun? Don’t tell us you met some beautiful girl from Tianhai Art University. You’re so heartless; Anan has been waiting for you all this time, and yet you were out there enjoying yourself. Hurry up and tell us where you went. Confess and face strict consequences; resist and we’ll go easy on you. Quickly, tell us the truth.”

“Ugh, Fourth Brother, you got it wrong. It’s ‘confess and face leniency; resist and face strict consequences.’ With your way of saying it, you’re practically pushing Second Brother to make mistakes. Second Brother, you’re amazing. You’re the sky, you’re the earth, you’re our red star, our sun. Our future romantic happiness at school depends on you looking out for us.”

“Brother Xincheng isn’t that kind of person. Don’t slander him. Brother Xincheng, come sit with me. I’ll pour you a drink and serve you some food. Then, you can tell us where you went just now. Don’t tell us you really did something bad like they said. Let me tell you, Brother Xincheng, most of those girls from Tianhai Art University are no good. You mustn’t be fooled by them. Oh, by the way, did you get any love letters or contact information? Let your big sister have a look.”
