Chapter 123
“Senior Lin!”
Zhao Kuang saw his savior. He scrambled to Lin Qingfeng and pointed viciously at Qin Lan.
“These two don’t know what’s good for them!”
“We tried discussing it nicely. Not only did they refuse, they attacked and injured someone!”
In a few sentences, he dumped all the blame onto Qin Lan.
Qin Lan was speechless.
“You…”
“Do you think we’re idiots, or that everyone here is an idiot?”
He covered his face, unable to watch.
“At least engage your brain before speaking… Dialogue this stupid makes readers question the author’s intelligence and attack him in the comments for not knowing how to write a plot…”
Zhao Kuang panicked first and cursed over him.
“Shut up!”
“Senior Lin is here now. Let’s see whether you can stay that arrogant!”
Lin Qingfeng studied Qin Lan without expression.
“You aren’t a student here, are you?”
“To leave Zhao Kuang in this state, you must have at least a Tier 3 Curse Core. I know everyone here with that strength, and you aren’t among them.”
Lin Qingfeng stepped forward and narrowed his eyes.
“So you’re an outsider who entered Clear Spring Academy, caused trouble, and injured one of our students… Aren’t you being too arrogant?”
“Or do you consider Clear Spring Academy insignificant, giving you license to act without restraint?”
The surrounding students’ expressions changed.
If Qin Lan was an outsider, the nature of the incident changed.
It was no longer a conflict between students, but one between a Clear Spring Academy student and an outsider.
Qin Lan’s eyes lit up. He even applauded.
“Good!”
“Not bad!”
“Very spirited!”
He seemed almost moved.
“Now that’s how a proper villain twists the narrative!”
“Villains who attack at the slightest provocation, curse someone’s mother after two sentences, and call people ‘trash’ five times out of ten are seriously outdated!”
“Put one at the start of a novel and no one will read it!”
Qin Lan considered him. “You’re still not as practiced as Zone Governor Yuan, though. Keep training, child.”
Luo Ping carefully tugged his sleeve.
“Brother Xue, why don’t we let it go…? If necessary, I’ll apologize. There’s no need to involve you.”
“If this becomes serious, you’ll get in trouble too…”
Qin Lan immediately slapped the back of his head.
Smack!
The sound rang loudly.
Qin Lan glared at him.
“They’re idiots, and you’re an idiot too?”
“If you apologize now, didn’t I beat him for nothing?”
The force was perfectly measured–enough to daze him without harming his brain.
Luo Ping rubbed his head blankly.
“But… If the academy leadership finds out and handles this…”
Qin Lan raised an eyebrow.
“Academy leadership?”
“Your academy leaders personally welcomed me as a visitor.”
“As an invited guest, I discovered an unhealthy culture during my tour. Isn’t it reasonable for me to help maintain discipline and uphold justice?”
“They can take any complaints to the Anomaly Hunter Bureau.”
Luo Ping shut his mouth.
Indeed, even Clear Spring Academy could not casually manipulate a 3-Star Anomaly Hunter receiving 4-Star treatment.
Even if Qin Lan truly went insane and stormed the campus, once arrested he would still be handed to the Anomaly Hunter Bureau for internal processing.
Throughout their exchange, Qin Lan never looked at Lin Qingfeng. He treated the man like air.
Lin Qingfeng’s face darkened, viciousness flashing in his eyes.
“You’re an Anomaly Hunter? Oh, I understand…”
A mocking smile curled his lips.
“The badge Luo Ping posted on his social feed belongs to you, doesn’t it?”
“You two are certainly bold, telling such an enormous lie without fearing exposure.”
“Counterfeiting a badge is a serious crime! If the Anomaly Hunter Bureau finds out, nine lives won’t be enough to save you.”
Qin Lan froze.
Luo Ping stared blankly.
Lin Qingfeng sneered.
“You can fool others, but not me!”
“A gold-bordered 3-Star Anomaly Hunter at your age? You think that’s possible?”
“Every person like that is a famous genius in the Central Region. Which one are you?”
His confidence grew with every sentence.
“Can’t invent a name?”
“You may truly be an Anomaly Hunter, but that badge must be counterfeit!”
Uh…
One could hardly blame Lin Qingfeng for doubting it.
Qin Lan’s achievements were genuinely shocking. Though he could not compare to people like Luan Zimo and Han Chan, he still surpassed an ordinary person’s understanding.
Lin Qingfeng might have believed a regular 3-Star badge.
A gold border was simply too absurd.
The difference in status between 3-Star and 4-Star was enormous.
Luo Ping panicked and tried to explain.
“No, Brother Xue really is–”
Lin Qingfeng shouted over him.
“Enough!”
“I have no interest in watching this pathetic performance!”
Dense curse energy surged around Lin Qingfeng.
His gaze changed, and white flames erupted over Qin Lan’s body.
B-rank Talent: [Scorching Gaze].
Any target within a certain distance of Lin Qingfeng’s sight could be ignited and subjected to continuous fire damage.
The special flames were not only powerful. They steadily corroded a target’s vitality and weakened them.
“Holy shit! Amaterasu?!”
Qin Lan showed a little surprise.
As expected of the Central Region. Even characters from *Naruto* could be found here.
“Anything else? Can you use Rasengan or Flying Thunder God? Show me and broaden my horizons.”
Qin Lan asked with complete sincerity.
He genuinely wanted to see them.
Lin Qingfeng froze. He expected Qin Lan to scream, yet the man appeared entirely unaffected.
Of course he was unaffected.
Did anyone think Qin Lan’s curse resistance of eighty-two was decorative?
At Lin Qingfeng’s strength, Scorching Gaze could not harm him at all.
White flames appeared to cover Qin Lan, but they actually remained some distance from his body. At most, he felt slightly warm.
“Why are you unharmed…?”
Refusing to believe it, Lin Qingfeng gathered curse energy and activated his Talent again.
The flames burned more fiercely.
Qin Lan still did not give a damn.
“That’s it?”
He casually patted out the flames, visibly disappointed.
“I thought I’d see some other flashy skills. Maybe a Sexy Jutsu that turns you into a beautiful woman…”
“All you can do is light a tiny fire.”
“What use is that Talent? Are you planning to graduate and open a Veteran Barbecue in some small county?”
Lin Qingfeng was shocked and furious.
“Impossible! This is impossible!”
“How did you do it?!”
He could not comprehend the scene.
His invincible white flames had accomplished absolutely nothing.
Qin Lan sighed.
“Boring…”
“You’re so weak I can’t even be bothered to hit you…”
After considering the matter, he nodded.
“But since you mentioned my parents, courtesy demands reciprocity…”
Qin Lan flickered in front of Lin Qingfeng and returned to his original position in an instant.
No one reacted to his speed.
Then Qin Lan grinned.
“Come forth!”
“Lin Qingfeng’s mother!”
