Chapter 214: Chapter 100 The Female Demon Arrives Chapter 214: Chapter 100 The Female Demon Arrives There was a moment of silence.
“It seems you already know about the company,” the person on the other side continued.
Xu Mo did not deny it.
Since he had received a call from the company, Xu Mo naturally understood that the company already knew about him.
However, this was also expected.
“The speech you gave at the ruins camp was splendid.
The public is ignorant, they are all exquisitely selfish, only thinking of rewards, never of giving.
They don’t understand that everything comes at a price,” the person on the other side said: “I admire that speech of yours very much.
Although there have been some unpleasant events in the Underworld, they are not worth fussing over.
Don’t you think?”
“I agree,” Xu Mo responded.
“Would you be interested in meeting up for a chat?” the other party asked.
“I’m quite busy lately,” Xu Mo replied.
“Then we’ll talk when you’re free,” the other party seemed not to mind, saying with a laugh: “Resources in Steel Dome City are limited, and you could easily obtain better ones.

Are you interested in going to the Capital to study?
There, not only will you find more exceptional talents, but also more advanced technology, and you might even make contact with humans from other planets.
With your gift, there’s no need to be confined to Steel Dome City.”
“If there’s a chance in the future, I will consider it,” Xu Mo replied.
“Alright,” the other party responded: “Contact me anytime.”
With that, they hung up the communicator.
Xu Mo, who had caused a tremendous stir in the Underworld, just had a ‘friendly talk’ with the company.
There was no heat, no anger, just calm and composed, like ‘old friends’ meeting after a long time.
But at the moment he put down the communicator, inside a tall building in Steel Dome City, a man gazing into the distance narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing through them.
It seems that not everyone is keen on reconciliation.
Xu Mo’s eyes also turned icy when he put down the communicator, his expression becoming serious in an instant.
He, of course, understood the other party’s intention: to reconcile, and to recruit him, to become one of their own.
Xu Mo did not wish to become a hero, nor did he harbor any ‘savior’ sentiments.
But he had the most basic sense of humanity, unlike the group of beasts who conducted human experiments on children and kept them in containers, treating the humans of the Underworld like livestock.
Moreover, Master Batu died because of them, and Miss Mia was one of those who had been confined in a container.
Elsa lost everything because of them and became a ‘monster’.
Reconcile?
How to reconcile.
If he reconciled, Sister Butterfly and the others would probably hate him too.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Qingdie sensed something off with Xu Mo and asked softly.
“It’s nothing,” Xu Mo said with a smile.
“What, as your ‘girlfriend’ for the day, I don’t have the right to know?” Ye Qingdie said.
“People from the company,” Xu Mo said.
Ye Qingdie and the others’ expressions changed.
The company’s people, had they found Xu Mo?
“Let’s go back,” Xu Mo said, and the group nodded, leaving Triumph Street and returning to the manor.
When Xu Mo and his group returned, Lin Qingze was also there.
He was talking business with the Old Dean.
The City Government had already arranged a new Dean for Noah Academy, not someone from the Academy Faction.
“Since the City Government has approved, let him come,” the Old Dean said, as for whether he could secure his position, that was another matter.
He had retired, but his influence at Noah Academy remained, it wasn’t just anyone who could take over Noah Academy.
In fact, Lin Qingze, the acting Dean, was his spokesperson at Noah Academy.
This had always been the case even before he retired; he hardly managed things directly.
“Understood,” Lin Qingze nodded, rubbing his brow, and said: “Old Dean, I’m thinking of retiring to spend time with my grandson too.”
Tired!
The tiredness from before was still manageable, but now, there were also struggles to deal with.
“Qingze, you’ve worked hard these years,” the Old Dean said: “In the future, when your grandson grows up, I’ll teach him Mecha.”
“I’ll remember your words, Old Dean,” Lin Qingze said with a smile: “In the future, he can call Xu Mo ‘Senior’.”
Saying this, he turned his head to look at Xu Mo: “You don’t have any objections, do you?”
“I don’t mind,” Xu Mo said with a smile.
“I’m heading back to the Academy now, there’s a lot to take care of,” Lin Qingze said.
“Yes, go on,” the Old Dean nodded, Lin Qingze greeted Xu Mo and left.
“Xu Mo.”
After Lin Qingze left, Lin Xi called out from the side.
“Sister Xi,” Xu Mo looked at Lin Xi.
“Su Rou has invited us to her house for dinner tomorrow.
It seems she’s having trouble bringing it up with you, but she probably wants to invite you,” Lin Xi told Xu Mo.
“Why is it hard for her to bring up?” Xu Mo found it strange, considering he and Su Rou were friends, and it would be perfectly normal for him to have a meal at her place.
“That girl, Su Rou?” the Old Dean asked from the side.
“Yes,” Xu Mo nodded.
“That girl is from the Su family, an arms-dealing family, not an ordinary one.
But she isn’t from the core of the family.
Inviting you to her place is probably not her own idea, but her family’s,” the Old Dean said.
Xu Mo was stunned, then understood.
Su Rou, being from a collateral line of a major clan, inviting him over was naturally an attempt to foster a good relationship.
Perhaps Su Rou thought it improper to extend the invitation herself since it involved benefits.
“There’s no issue with having a meal,” Xu Mo said nonchalantly: “Sister Xi, let’s go together tomorrow.”
“Sure,” Lin Xi nodded with a smile, knowing that Xu Mo wouldn’t mind this.
Just then, Xu Mo’s communicator vibrated; he saw the name displayed and promptly hung up.
“Hey, hey, hey, what have you been up to lately?
The female devil’s been unable to find you, are you going crazy killing in the Super God Arena?” A message came through.
Xu Mo revealed a strange expression.
He hadn’t gone to the Ruins World in the past ten days, and naturally, he hadn’t been to the Super God Arena either.
After slashing the female devil that day, he went to fight with the Southern Army in the ruins the next, and then he rested for several days.
She-devil, gone on a killing spree?
Terrifying!
Xu Mo felt somewhat sorry for the people at the Super God Arena.
…
Recently, an incident at the Extraordinary Academy stirred up quite a turbulence.
Nanming Huowu, the beloved daughter of the Nanming Family, initiated the Sky Trial Field.
Although she ultimately failed to pass through, it still caused some ripples in the Ruins World.
The people from the Eight Extraordinary Colleges were all talking about it.
Worthy of the Nanming Goddess, if Xu Mo dedicated himself to the trials in the Ruins World, he should also be able to initiate the Sky Trial Field.
However, since Xu Mo dropped out of school, little has been heard from him in the Ruins World.
Some speculated that he seldom visited the Ruins World, while others guessed Xu Mo was undergoing solitary trials.
Rumors of a marriage alliance between Nanming Academy and Noah Academy even spread, but they were just jokes among the meddling students; unconsciously, they had spread throughout the two academies.
The students of Nanming Academy and Noah Academy all expressed support for the Nanming Goddess and Brother S getting together.
But soon after the rumors surfaced, the media captured Nanming Goddess on a date with a mysterious youth at a high-end restaurant in Steel Dome City.
The mysterious youth appeared slightly older than Nanming Huowu and was likely not a student at any academy.
Subsequently, Nanming Huowu clarified some of the rumors, claiming to have only met Xu Mo in passing.
This left many students from Nanming Academy and Noah Academy feeling disappointed; it seemed the Nanming Goddess had someone else in mind, and their matchmaking had failed.
ƝοѵǤᴑ.ƈο
Just who was that mysterious youth?
Did Brother S actually get outdone?
Of course, it could also be that the Nanming Goddess doesn’t fancy younger men.
Xu Mo, completely oblivious to the academies’ gossip, would probably feel speechless if he knew.
After all, his acquaintance with Nanming Huowu was brief and they barely exchanged a few words, yet they were bizarrely tied together.
Actually, it was quite understandable.
Now among the Eight Extraordinary Colleges, just the two of them bore S titles.
Plus, with the previous rumors of matchmaking, gossipmongers naturally paired them together, forcibly creating a couple.
…
Ruins World.
Noah Academy.
A figure clad in white armor, wielding a Source Power Sword, stood outside the academy.
When she saw someone walking out, she blocked the path and asked, “Where is Hunter?”
That figure was none other than the ‘Fallen Princess’.
After she had been killed by Xu Mo that day, her teacher had given her a scolding and she felt somewhat aggrieved.
The next day she wanted to take revenge, but Xu Mo was not there.
The third day, the fourth day… the tenth day, Xu Mo was nowhere to be seen.
She slaughtered her way through the Super God Arena several times, and finally running out of patience, came to Steel Dome City.
Because she had killed Xu Mo before, she had the permission to come to Steel Dome City.
Thereafter, she learned that Hunter was from Noah Academy.
So, she stood there.
“Looking for Brother S?” A student from Noah Academy was taken aback.
“What do you want with him?” someone asked out of curiosity.
“To kill him,” the she-devil answered bluntly.
“Just you?” The people of Noah Academy looked at her with scorn, recognizing from her voice that the she-devil was not old, kill Brother S?
Seeing that they ignored her, the she-devil stood in front of the academy entrance.
“So arrogant?” A student from Noah Academy charged at her.
With her sword in hand, the she-devil brought it down in one fell swoop.
Splutter… one person was directly chopped down.
The others were stunned for a moment.
“Cut her down,” a few people charged forward, and the she-devil swung her sword, one strike for each person.
“Oh my god…” Students coming out of Noah Academy watched the figure continue to advance.
She was so fierce?
They ran forward, converging on the she-devil.
The she-devil stood her ground, not moving an inch, her Source Power Sword sweeping out horizontally.
A ring of light shimmered, and an entire line of people were sent flying away.
Was she here to cause trouble?
They picked themselves up and went back inside the academy.
“You log off first, go call for reinforcements,” someone said, shocked that someone was blocking Noah Academy’s gate in the Ruins World.
Way too audacious.
Half an hour later, the gateway of the Ruins World’s Noah Academy was still blocked, with the number of people cut down increasing steadily.
Even students with Source Power Level B were killed with a single strike.
No need for a second blow.
Outside, Noah Academy was shaken.
Students rushed towards the Ruins Building, hardly believing someone could be so brazen.
Preposterous!
An hour later, Noah Academy’s gate was still under siege, with the number of those slain growing exponentially.
This was embarrassing!
Who was this she-devil?
When had such a formidable woman appeared in Steel Dome City?
Two hours later.
The students of Noah Academy had lost their previous spirit.
They decided it was time to call for Brother S, to request backup.
They couldn’t beat her!!!
