Fang Jingxuan was somewhat shocked.
Because of her background and talent, she had encountered many outstanding people of the same age.
Among those people, some had great talent, some had resolute personalities, some had vast knowledge…
But there were very few who could keep up with her thinking.
No matter what they talked about, Chen Heng could easily follow. Whether it was in terms of martial arts, history, or economy, he had his own unique views.
Fang Jingxuan had never met a similarly-aged person like this before.
In fact, some of his perspectives were quite compatible with hers, making her feel that he knew her well.
During this short interaction, she could not help but feel quite favorable towards Chen Heng and also began to feel somewhat curious about him.
Just what was this young man"s past like?
Why had she never heard of him before?
"It"s about time for cla.s.s to start."
Chen Heng did not know what Fang Jingxuan was thinking and only smiled as he said, "I should be heading back."
"Alright."
Fang Jingxuan nodded and smiled as she looked at Chen Heng, "I hope that we can still be friends in the future."
"We will," Chen Heng nodded and smiled.
Following this, he waved his hand, turned, and left.
Under the sunlight, the young man"s figure gradually disappeared.
Fang Jingxuan stood there by herself, silently watching the young man leave, a smile on her face.
"Getting this far was pretty good," Chen Heng thought to himself as he walked.
Him suddenly making contact with Fang Jingxuan naturally was not because he was bored, nor because he actually liked her.
Liking someone was far behind Chen Heng; he had long since gotten past that stage.
The reason he had done this was to get things done.
When Chen Heng walked into the cla.s.sroom, he found that many people were looking at him with strange gazes.
It seemed that what Chen Heng had said had caused an effect.
What he had said with Liang Guo was in a public setting, and many people had heard.
This kind of gossip spread quickly, and by now, the whole cla.s.s probably knew.
Chen Heng"s expression did not change as he silently walked to his seat.
Many people looked over out of curiosity, and some wanted to ask him about what had happened.
However, at that moment, the bell rang and the students fell silent as cla.s.s began.
Sitting at his desk, Chen Heng looked to the side and saw that the seat nearby was empty.
If he remembered correctly, that was Liu Yi"s seat; she had not come to cla.s.s today.
"Was it because of what happened yesterday?" Chen Heng thought to himself before thinking to himself.
Even though this world had changed much, some things would most likely still happen, just like how there were not many changes in the cla.s.smates and friends around him.
If that was the case, the kidnapping from his previous life would most likely happen again.
It should be happening soon, and this would be a good opportunity.
Chen Heng"s gaze was calm as he thought to himself.
Elsewhere, Liu Jue and Liu Xin were talking.
"Really?"
Looking at Liu Xin, Liu Jue had a confused expression, "That boy was able to easily injure you?"
"He didn"t injure me…" Liu Xin lowered his head, feeling quite ashamed, "He did not attack me at all, but he was able to easily suppress me."
Liu Jue stared at him.
Defeating someone and suppressing someone were completely different.
You could only defeat someone if you were a bit stronger, but suppressing someone required a ma.s.sive disparity in strength.
That person was strong to such a degree?
"Even though I don"t know why, but that boy definitely is not an ordinary person and is most likely close to Body Forging Completion…"
Liu Xin sighed again, "It"s just a bit strange."
Liu Jue understood what he was saying.
Ordinarily speaking, for someone at this age to reach Body Forging Completion, they would undoubtedly be a true genius. If news about this spread, a ma.s.sive group of people would come and beg him to join their Schools and become a Core Disciple.
Despite having such strength, this person did not show it and remained at a small place like this.
It was quite strange.
However, Liu Jue did not think too much about this for now.
After all, everything had a reason.
What he cared about right now was his little sister, Liu Yi.
"Looks like I was mistaken."
Thinking to there, Liu Jue"s expression softened.
He had been angry because he thought that his little sister was being tricked by someone, which was why she would take the Solid Rock School"s core technique and give it away.
Now, he knew that that person was not an ordinary person but a true genius.
For a genius like this, giving him a Body Forging Technique was not a big deal.
If anyone else knew about him, there would be many people who would be willing to take out their School"s secret Body Forging Techniques to try to rope him in.
For those without much resources, Body Forging Techniques were very precious, but when people reached a certain point, this kind of thing was not a big deal anymore.
The times were not like in the past, when every School would jealously guard their Body Forging Techniques.
During this age of information, to those with the right resources, the various Schools" Body Forging Techniques were no longer secrets.
Comparatively speaking, true geniuses were the core of Schools, and they were much rarer.
Thinking to there, Liu Xin"s anger subsided, and he instead felt quite favorably towards what Liu Yi had done.
For her to discover a hidden genius in time and establish a good relations.h.i.+p with him without alerting anyone else, as well as invest in him with a Body Forging Technique, this was very well done on her part.
As expected of someone from the Liu family.
"Did you say you were from the Liu family?" Liu Jue looked up and asked Liu Xin.
"No, I didn"t."
Liu Xin shook his head and replied, "I didn"t say where I came from, only that I was paid to beat him up."
"That"s good then."
Liu Jue nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me from now on."
He decided that he would find his little sister and talk seriously about this.
It would be too much of a pity for such an outstanding sprout to be buried here.
If they did not discover him, then there would be nothing they could do; however, now that they had discovered him, they naturally could not just let him off.
After all, in this time and age, talented people were what mattered the most.
Following this, he turned and left with Liu Xin, and he went to find Liu Yi.
Time gradually pa.s.sed.
Soon, it had been half a month.
During the past half a month, the noise from what Chen Heng had done last time gradually died down.
It was not just in Chen Heng"s cla.s.s but even those in Fang Jingxuan"s cla.s.s knew that she had another admirer.
When Chen Heng walked about, there would be many people looking at him with strange glances.
As expected no matter the time or world, this kind of gossip spread quickly.
However, Chen Heng did not mind and went about his business as usual.
"It"s about time…"
Sitting in front of his desk, Chen Heng thought to himself as he wrote in his book.
Based on his memories from his previous life, today was the day that incident was going to happen.
For today, Chen Heng had made preparations.
Today was a Sunday, and because of this matter, he did not stay at home and instead came to school to revise his cla.s.swork.
It was just that despite waiting an entire morning, he did not hear anything out of the ordinary.
"Did things change?"
At noon, Chen Heng raised his head and felt quite surprised.
He remembered that incident had happened in the morning.
However, nothing had happened.
It seemed that things had changed in this world.
Chen Heng was somewhat surprised, but he did not mind too much.
He had just missed out on a chance to show his strength, but it was not a big deal.
Since he had set up the foundation, he could just find another opportunity.
Thinking to there, he silently got up and walked out.
What he did not notice was that there were two people observing him not too far away.
"It"s that boy?"
Standing on a rooftop, Liu Jue looked at the departing Chen Heng as he nodded, "You did well, Liu Yi."
