Chapter 667: 559 Introduction, Ying Zijin, my boss [1 more update]_2
The Alchemy world possesses a language unique to alchemists alone.
Alchemy speak is even more difficult than Latin; ordinary people, even if they try to learn it, cannot comprehend those characters.
Only those with an innate gift for alchemy can learn this language.
Yet, alchemy speak is exclusive to the Alchemy world and not to be shared externally.
The ability of Norton University to establish an Alchemy Department was only possible because during Norton’s first visit to the Alchemy world, he learned some of the basic alchemy language.
However, after he returned, he figured out the entire alchemy language system on his own.
The title of genius Alchemist Lunatic isn’t just for show.
"It won’t work." Norton shrugged, his ear studs reflecting the light, "If you don’t believe me, listen for yourself."
He paused, then slowly began to speak.
An ancient language flowed from his lips, sacred and profound.
The vice-principal didn’t understand, but he could tell that another part had been silenced.
Even the alchemy language was ineffective?!
Ying Zijin’s eyelashes fluttered slightly as she spoke in a light voice, "This system has recorded all languages. As long as you speak the name of the location, the system will automatically detect it, block it, and it’s not a very complicated program, but it is complex."
"Well done, old Antique. You’ve been gone so long, and now you know computers?" Norton said, stroking his chin politely, "How about beefing up the school’s firewall for us?"
Ying Zijin lifted her gaze to his, her eyes revealing indiscernible emotions.
"Tha-, that, Principal..." The vice-principal wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "The Elder has already reinforced it."
"Oh—That’s good then." Norton immediately apologized, changing his tone, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, you’re still the boss."
He was different from Xize.
Xize was just a Little Brat following the adults.
When he called Ying Zijin boss, it was because he was willing to admit defeat.
Only the strong were worthy of his allegiance.
"The signal isn’t always available here, and there are many people monitoring it at all times. It was only with great difficulty that I found an opportunity to contact you," Norton said, leaning back in his chair. He lifted his eyelids and smiled, "old Antique, I’ll scout ahead for you, your strength hasn’t recovered, right?"
Ying Zijin fell silent. After a few seconds, she said, "Don’t make a move just yet."
She closed her eyes.
In an instant, her Divine Calculation abilities activated fully.
A few minutes later, Ying Zijin reopened her eyes, their color even deeper.
As expected, she still couldn’t figure it out.
Ying Zijin then took a computer nearby and began searching for the source of the signal.
Quickly, a red frame popped up.
[Coordinates untraceable.]
Like the Ancient Martial World, it was a separate place, thus unlocatable.
But it wasn’t entirely bad news.
At least she was certain that the hackers who had attacked Norton University, the Venus Group, and herself were all in the same location as Norton.
That included the power symbolized by a black skull.
It was the place she and Fu Yunshen had been searching for.
"The signal is about to disappear, I’m gonna hang up," Norton said, and then he exited the video call.
The online meeting was left with only the vice-principal and Ying Zijin.
Seeing the girl’s complexion a bit pale, the vice-principal was worried, "Are you really all right?"
"I’m fine," Ying Zijin said slowly, pressing her temples, "I don’t think I’ve told you that I have a period of memory loss."
The "heart" she found bothersome and discarded was not only the seat of her emotions but also a source of some of her power.
After discarding it, she became unable to feel any emotion and also lost part of her memory, forgetting certain matters about herself.
Emotions have already been awakened with the help of Fu Yunshen, Wen Tinglan, and Wen Fengmian. However, the memory must wait until she retrieves her "heart" before it can be restored.
But even she doesn’t know where she threw her "heart."
And because it concerns her own self, she can’t calculate it.
She had originally thought this memory loss related to her previous stay in the Spirit Cultivation World, but it now seems it likely originated on Earth.
The vice-principal immediately grew anxious, "Then you..."
"Don’t worry," Ying Zijin spoke indifferently, "Norton is right, he’ll scout ahead."
The vice-principal agreed completely, "The Principal has been there for almost two years without incident, and with his shamelessness, I suspect he might have already infiltrated their ranks."
This kind of talk, of course, he wouldn’t dare say in front of Norton.
He was afraid he would be dissected.
Ying Zijin nodded, "I leave my brother in your hands, he must not encounter any trouble."
The Vice Chancellor nodded earnestly, "Definitely."
The call ended completely.
Ying Zijin was still sitting on the sofa.
She took out a piece of paper from beside her and pressed it to the corner of her lips.
The paper soon became soaked with a spreading bloodstain.
This time, the impact of deducing Norton’s location was even greater than when she diverted disaster for Shang Yaozhi.
Her Divine Calculation ability was sealed once again.
Not because of Norton, but because of the place he was in.
Ying Zijin took a sip of water, kicked Jason out with one foot, and then went to her bedroom to sleep.
**
The day after the meeting concluded, Norton University dispatched an action team to personally capture Jason and Huan and bring them back.
Huan’s brain had been invaded by toxins from the water snake, and his nerves were still in disarray. There was an eighty percent chance he would never recover.
Unless a practitioner of Ancient Medicine could actually be invited to use the Golden Needle to extract the toxins from his brain.
Wen Tinglan vaguely knew that the Vice Chancellor was rather afraid of Ying Zijin, but he had not expected that it would lead to the complete downfall of the Hershel Family.
The fact that the Hershel Family harbored thoughts of rebellion, naturally, would not be shared with the students.
Wen Tinglan also feared bringing trouble and harm to Ying Zijin again and let out a sigh of relief, "Sis, I’ll stay and spend the New Year with you and Dad before I go."
Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow, "Sure."
She wouldn’t tell Wen Tinglan that Wen Fengmian might very well capture him for his experiments.
Adele naturally stayed behind as well, as she hadn’t finished trying all the delicacies in the imperial capital.
Wen Tinglan had no choice but to continue taking her out to eat.
At that moment, Ying Zijin received two messages on WeChat.
[Xiao Lizi who tries to surf the net]: Miss Ying, I have good news for you. Your identity information has caught the attention of the ancestors of the Heavenly Medical Sect. You have a great chance of being accepted as a disciple. Aside from Miss Qingjia, you’ll be the first!
[Xiao Lizi who tries to surf the net]: Also, if it’s not too much trouble, could you top up my phone credit [shy], I’ll give you medicinal herbs!
Ying Zijin: "..."
She emotionlessly opened WeChat, topped up Hall Master Li’s phone credit, then took screenshots of each step and sent them over.
[Do it yourself in the future.]
Meanwhile, Fu Yunshen resolved the matter at the Judicial Hall and returned.
Ying Zijin put down her phone and then held out her hand, "Let’s go to the balcony."
Fu Yunshen approached, bent over to pick up the girl, steadying her in his arms.
His head lowered, touching her face, "Why have you suddenly become so lazy, haven’t rested well?"
"Mm," Ying Zijin leaned against his shoulder with half-closed eyes, "Don’t want to walk."
"Alright, I’ll be your conveyance, always at your disposal."
The sunshine on the balcony was good, warm but not glaring.
Fu Yunshen placed her on a lounge chair next to the flower bed and sat down himself, "Elder Mu sent word saying that we should avoid visiting the Mu family during the New Year’s eve."
He spoke indifferently, "To avoid running into people we shouldn’t see."
Mu Heqing had just told him that one of Meng Qingxue’s guards had been circling around the Mu family’s vicinity.
Probably watching him.
He wouldn’t be visiting the Mu family for the time being.
Ying Zijin was unfazed, she yawned, "Then let’s go to the New Year’s Eve party, I have VIP tickets."
"Mm," Fu Yunshen nodded, "Let’s also give a few to Elder Mu, he probably doesn’t want to stay in the Mu family either."
**
In the Ancient Medical Field, Heavenly Medical Sect.
"Ancient Divine Doctor, these are the membership details sent by the Pill Alliance," the steward said respectfully, "Since Miss Qingjia has joined Elder Qi’s side and you haven’t taken any disciples, Elder Qi passed the details to you."
"That’s possible," the Ancient Divine Doctor stroked his beard arrogantly, "Let her come to see me personally, I’ll see if she’s suitable to learn Acupuncture Techniques."
"If she’s not suitable, no matter how strong her Medicine Refining Ability is, I won’t accept her."
