1764 Brazen Poaching (3)

“Old Sun…”

Du He clenched his fists tightly, his heart full of anger.

Kou Sun raised his hand to stop him from continuing, indicating for him to calm down.

“However, the academy has always respected the choices of the students. Student Lu, you can choose if you want to transfer to the Alchemy Department,” Kou Sun said to Lu Zijia gently.

This time, it was Du He’s turn to smile, and Liao Zhenshan, who was originally smug, had a sullen expression.

“Deputy Dean, isn’t this too childish?” Liao Zhenshan said with obvious disagreement.

Kou Sun smiled and said, “We’re not related to Student Lu, so we don’t have the right to make the decision for her. So, it’s better for her to make the decision herself.”

“That’s right. Liao Zhenshan, who do you think you are? You actually want to make decisions for the students of the Martial Arts Department. Aren’t you being too nosy?”

Du He said sarcastically with gloating, “I think you shouldn’t be called Liao Zhenshan. We should just call you ‘Overreaching Liao’.”

Lu Zijia moved behind her Dao companion silently to prevent Liao Zhenshan, whose face was as dark as ink, from seeing her holding back her laughter.

Sensing his wife’s movement, a smile flashed across Mu Tianyan’s eyes quickly and he helped to block her cooperatively.

Liao Zhenshan suppressed his anger and ignored Du He’s sarcasm. He said, “Don’t be too sure. How do you know that Student Lu will definitely choose the Martial Arts Department? She’s an alchemist. Now that there’s a chance to improve her alchemy skills in front of her, any alchemist wouldn’t reject it.”

Speaking of this, Liao Zhenshan turned around and promised Lu Zijia, “Student Lu, as the Dean of the Alchemist Institute, I can guarantee that you’ll receive the best guidance and training once you’re transferred to the Alchemist Institute. I’ll even personally guide you in your alchemy skills.”

It had to be said that Liao Zhenshan’s promise was extremely attractive.

If it were any other alchemist, they would probably agree immediately.

However, as the person involved in the promise, Lu Zijia wasn’t tempted at all.

Not to mention that she didn’t trust Liao Zhenshan’s character at all, she definitely couldn’t let others discover her extremely high success rate.

The people of the Martial Arts Department basically didn’t know anything about alchemy. Most importantly, Du He, the dean, gave her a lot of space and was very meticulous.

No one could enter the courtyard where she was living now without her permission, including Dean Du He.

So, even if she refined pills in the courtyard, she wasn’t afraid that the people of the Martial Arts Department would notice something wrong with her.

Of course, she still refined pills in the ancient space most of the time.

It would be different in the Alchemy Department.

After all, the teachers and students of the Alchemy Department all knew how to refine pills, so the possibility that she would be exposed would be even higher.

So, no matter how tempting the benefits Liao Zhenshan promised were, it was impossible for her to transfer to the Alchemy Department.

“Liao Zhenshan, you’re despicable and shameless!”

Hearing Liao Zhenshan’s deliberate seduction, Du He’s face turned green.

Liao Zhenshan sneered. “I’m just letting Student Lu know that the Alchemy Department is her best choice. How am I the despicable one?”

“You…!”

Du He clenched his fists tightly and his widened eyes were stained with blood. It could be seen how furious he was at this moment.

“I’m sorry, Dean Liao. I think the Martial Arts Department is quite good.”

Seeing Du He trembling with anger, Lu Zijia quickly said her choice.

The Dean was already so old. If something happened to him out of anger, wouldn’t he blame her?

Du He was first stunned, then he laughed happily.
