Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 627
Chapter 627: Are You Surprised?
Upon hearing this name, Dugu Ji-An also stopped in his tracks and looked at the potion teacher.
“Su Huiqing?” Murong Bing shook his head. “I didn’t see her. Why are you looking for her?” The two people in front of him were famous in school. The potion teacher didn’t hide it from them and just sighed. “I have been contacting her for a long time. Murong, you also know that with her talent, it would be a pity if she didn’t refine potions, but she rejected it! It’s fine if that’s the case, but it’s not a disgrace for her to walk the path of cultivation! But… Murong, do you know that Su Huiqing didn’t even go to the training room! She actually ran off to play games. What a lousy game! Do you think she is wasting her talent?”
That was why the potion teacher insisted on finding Su Huiqing to learn potions.
Upon hearing the potion teacher’s words, Dugu Ji-An stopped in his tracks. “Wait, teacher, who did you say had the talent to refine potions?”
However, that was just a thought. He knew how difficult it was to become a potion maker. Now, the potion teacher actually said that it was a pity that Su Huiqing didn’t refine potions?
“Student Su Huiqing, this year’s freshmen are especially talented in potions. You probably don’t know her.” The potion teacher continued to sigh. As he spoke, he suddenly looked up in shock. “Wait a minute, she seems to be from your Dugu Family…”
“Her? Extremely talented in potions?” Dugu Ji-An felt that he was probably not talking about the same person as they were.
Although he had also thought that, if Missy could refine potions, she would definitely be the best in the Dugu Family overseas. Even that person from the Dugu Family could not compare to her.
“That’s right. In that case, I won’t speak further.” The potion teacher looked deeply at Dugu Ji-An. “Regarding this matter, I have looked for Mr. Dugu, but he seemed to have something on and left first. Student Dugu Ji-An, if you are familiar with Student Su, please help me persuade Student Su.”
Dugu Ji-An felt like he was dreaming.
He ignored Murong Bing and the potion teacher’s shocked gazes and immediately called Dugu Jiyun. His voice could not hide his excitement. “Ah Yun, Missy… seems to be a potion maker!”
…
Su Huiqing didn’t know that many people in school were looking for her. She was still at Yu Shijin’s place.
Yu Han and the rest sat in the main hall for a meeting, their expressions very serious. “I’m very sure that this is indeed the intelligence agency’s news and cooperation case. I’ve been asking around, but I haven’t found any news about where they are.”
Upon hearing this, the elder became serious. “This is very important to us overseas. We have been out of touch for a long time. If we can cooperate with the Intelligence Agency, there’s nothing to be afraid of on Yu Feng’s side. Most importantly, we are not afraid of exposing the secret.”
“I heard that the big boss behind the Intelligence Agency will also appear. I wonder who TA will be.” Hua Guangxuan took a bite of an apple. “I think the Murong Family is also investigating this news.”
In terms of capabilities, they were much stronger than that newly-established Intelligence Agency.
However, facing those people from the Intelligence Agency, they could not act high and mighty.
After all… the Intelligence Agency had almost all the information overseas, including the disciples in the south. No one knew how they did it, but one thing was undeniable—it was even easier for them to control the overseas region if they could obtain the cooperation of the Intelligence Agency.
Su Huiqing sat at the side and played with her phone. When she heard their voices, she could not help but sigh. She thought to herself that the people from the Intelligence Agency had no intention of controlling overseas. They only wanted to play games.
However, she didn’t say it out loud. Instead, she stood up and looked at Yu Yan and the rest. “Continue. I have something to attend to.”
Yu Han stood up. “Miss Su, I will accompany you.”
“No need.” Su Huiqing waved her hand. “I have some personal matters to attend to. I will be right back.”
Hearing Su Huiqing’s words, Yu Han didn’t insist. He just reminded Su Huiqing to be careful.
Su Huiqing didn’t turn back and just waved at them. “Don’t worry.”
She had just left the house when she received a call from Dugu Ji-An. “The Dugu Family? I should be going back, but I have to wait for school break.”
“Alright.” Dugu Ji-An took a deep breath and restrained himself from asking Su Huiqing if she knew how to refine potions. He only said, “I am in school. The head of the family asked me to bring you back.”
“School?” Su Huiqing nodded. “Alright, wait for me to come back.”
She hung up and headed in a certain direction.
At the same time, news of Dugu Heng’s daughter returning to the Dugu Family spread to the Dugu Family’s island.
In the Elder Cabinet on the island, a white-bearded old man waved casually. “Isn’t it just Dugu Heng’s daughter? Don’t bother about her.”
“Should we check her information…?” The guard kneeling below said cautiously.
“Is there a need to investigate? Their International Association can produce one Dugu Heng, but can they produce another?” The elder waved his hand.
He didn’t know that he would regret it for the rest of his life if he didn’t investigate.
…
Meanwhile, Su Xiao, the Fu Family Head, and the rest had already arrived at the designated location.
However, the person behind the Intelligence Agency had yet to appear. Su Xiao waited anxiously.
In just two days, her face had turned extremely yellow and had lost its usual color.
“Miss Su, is there anything wrong with this matter?” The Fu Family Head asked.
“How could that be?” Su Xiao was even more frustrated. At this moment, she didn’t even want to bother about the Fu Family Head and just replied in frustration, “Now, the entire overseas family is asking about the Intelligence Agency. This is a new power, but no one dares to underestimate it. Who knows if they will release a new territory…?”
Su Xiao pursed her lips. “So, as long as they cooperate with us and insist that Su Huiqing’s background is unknown, we can at least keep our lives!”
“Oh, right, I told you to prepare the spirit coins. Are you ready?” Su Xiao could not help but look at the people beside her.
“Of course.” This matter concerned their own lives. How could these people dare to be careless? They almost took out all the spirit coins that the family could take out. “I have 900,000 spirit coins here. Miss Su, take it first.”
Master Fu took out a card and handed it to Su Xiao.
The others also took out their cards.
Upon seeing these cards, Su Xiao became even more confident. She had long heard that the person behind the Intelligence Agency liked spirit coins. There was no mistake in liking them.
As she was thinking, some figures suddenly appeared in the hall.
Su Xiao saw two young figures walking over and recognized one of them to be Apollo. She was shocked. She didn’t expect Apollo to cooperate with the person behind this. It seemed like they were in danger this time. However, there was still a chance.
“Excuse me, are you from the Intelligence Agency…?” She took a deep breath and asked another figure.
Dugu Yusheng stood beside the middle chair and looked at Su Xiao before shaking his head. “I am not. Our boss… is on her way here.”
Su Xiao was secretly delighted. She had thought that Apollo knew Dugu Yusheng and that her chances were much lower.
Now that it seemed like the two of them didn’t know each other, everything was fine.
She waited for Dugu Yusheng’s boss to come over. She wondered who this boss was. In less than half a year, this person had developed the Intelligence Agency to such a state.
Just as she was thinking, the door to the main hall opened again.
Everyone could not help but look in that direction.
At the main door, a handsome figure was walking over casually. She was holding her phone in one hand and her jacket in the other. Her eyes were clear and beautiful, and the snow-white chandelier in the hall lit up her arrival very clearly.
Su Xiao pursed her lips. How could she not recognize Su Huiqing?
“Ignore her!” Su Xiao retracted her gaze.
Su Huiqing walked past her towards Dugu Yusheng. No one dared to stop her.
Su Xiao and the rest could not help but widen their eyes. They felt ridiculous for no reason. A thought gradually surfaced in their minds.
Under their disbelieving gazes, Su Huiqing sat on the chair beside Dugu Yusheng and smiled at Su Xiao. “That’s right. I am the boss behind the Intelligence Agency. Apollo is also one of my men.”
