Chapter 2707 - 925: Hmm, the Dean Is Quite Thrifty!
Nangong Lanfeng brought Mo Jiuli into the courtyard and directly invited him inside. The room’s decor was as simple as the small courtyard; Nangong Lanfeng took two chairs and led him further back...
It was only when they got to the back that Mo Jiuli realized there was a lotus pond behind the small courtyard, with a pavilion beside it. However, there was only a table in the pavilion, no chairs, which is why Nangong Lanfeng had brought Mo Jiuli back into the house to get two chairs...
Nangong Lanfeng brought Mo Jiuli to the table in the pavilion, placed down the chairs, and gestured for Mo Jiuli to sit down, flashing a slight smile and saying, "Usually, it’s just the Vice Dean and I that come here. But if the chairs are left here, they need replacing in a few days. I’m too lazy to replace them, so when I leave, I take the chairs with me. When I come, I just bring them along!"
"Hmm, the Dean is quite economical!" Mo Jiuli said with a slight smile.
"It’s all for convenience. So, tell me, what do you want me to do for you to help me with the antidote?" Nangong Lanfeng directly asked Mo Jiuli.
"What does the Dean guess?" Mo Jiuli countered, looking at Nangong Lanfeng.
"You want me to help you and your husband leave, right? But even if you don’t give me the antidote, I can’t promise you that! I won’t hide it from you; a few years ago, a disciple came to the Academy, extremely rude and unreasonable, forcing me to send him away privately. As a result, I received punishment from the Cloud Middle World Academy. Therefore, unless someone ranks in the top 100 in the Academy Competition, they can’t leave the Academy, and that’s true for everyone! So if this is what you’re after, there’s no point in discussing it. I can’t help you even if you ask!" Nangong Lanfeng pondered and said to Mo Jiuli.
"Since the Dean says so, I certainly won’t make it difficult for you! I will adhere to the Academy’s rules when leaving. So today, I would like to ask the Dean to provide a quiet environment for us to study and cultivate. I hope the Dean won’t refuse me!" Mo Jiuli said, grinning at Nangong Lanfeng.
"Do you want me to help you deal with the Zongzheng Family and the Han family?" Nangong Lanfeng asked with a slight frown.
"I like handling such matters myself, but the Dean should know better than me that the Zongzheng Family and the Han family are great families in the Underworld. If I want to deal with them all at once, it might not end smoothly and cleanly! I’m rather lazy and don’t enjoy tackling these matters repeatedly, so I’ll trouble the Dean to figure out a way, using any suitable excuse, to gather all the members of the Zongzheng Family and the Han family in one place! The rest we can handle ourselves..." Mo Jiuli said to Nangong Lanfeng.
"You’re clearly giving me a headache! The Ancestors of the Zongzheng Family and the Han family almost never reside within the two great clans; they live alone outside or are traveling. Without events threatening total destruction to their families, the Ancestors are unlikely to return. Little Girl, you must have learned about this from the Veteran Scholar to give me a hard time!" Nangong Lanfeng said, glaring at Mo Jiuli with dissatisfaction.
"But it’s the Dean who gave me the opportunity. If the Dean hadn’t been poisoned with chronic poison, how would I have had the chance to negotiate terms with you?" Mo Jiuli replied with a slight smile.
"I’ll see what I can do, but the Zongzheng Family and the Han family aren’t as simple as you think!" Nangong Lanfeng said helplessly to Mo Jiuli.
