"Liu Yang, you better stay away from Miss Bai, otherwise, you will regret this." Quan Xue spoke with a menacing tone as he heard the screams of the students around him.
Things got a little out of hand, so he had to get out.
"..." Liu Yang just casually looked at him like he was some idiot.
"..." The look irritated Quan Xue even more, but he had to hold back because it would have negative consequences on his reputation.
Someone above level 100 hitting someone level 0 was considered intimidation.
For someone famous and influential like him, that was even worse because there was a public image to maintain.
Not wanting to continue the conversation, he got in his car and drove away.
Liu Yang did the same. Ignoring the students' questions around.
…
At the headquarters of the Heavenly Beast Guild…
The building was covered by dark glass that absorbs the heat of the sun to generate energy and increase the building's protective power. The twenty-floor, rectangular shape made the building the tallest among all the others around it.
The guild wanted to make the biggest building ever so that people could recognize what the guild's main building was.
A large plaque with the words Heavenly Beasts and drawings of a vermilion bird, white tiger, blue dragon, and black turtle was carved.
At the entrance, it could see Hunters coming and going. Each of them used high-quality equipment.
The guild didn't accept weak people, so it was normal to have only powerful Hunters in the guild.
…
On the fifteenth floor…
One of the rooms was large, but there was only a round table and twelve chairs with a carved design on each.
A meeting was being held, but not everyone was present. Some people were just projections made on the chairs, while three were vacant.
"We will close today's meeting. Next week, we will discuss improving our members and the budget for incursions into other worlds." A gray-haired old man was the one who spoke, he seemed to be the one presiding over the meeting.
The symbol he had on the chair was the dog.
"Till next week." Some projections and people left the room because they had more important things to do and didn't want to stay in the room with rivals.
The rivalry was not only external but also internal within the guild.
As long as it doesn't go too far, the others would still tolerate it.
"This week's meetings were quite tiring. This monstrous sea creature is really causing a lot of trouble" A middle-aged woman commented dejectedly. She was beautiful and elegant in her long, ornate dress.
A light amount of makeup could be seen on her face.
But what stands out the most was the gold bracelet with the design of a rabbit carved into the wrists.
"Yue Yue, you look more tired than usual. Has your husband failed to please you enough?" Someone joked.
Looking towards the voice it was possible to see a thin old woman with white hair walking towards her.
"Damn old lady, you should shut up about this. My private life has nothing to do with my work." Yue Yue didn't like the old woman's words, but it was true, or partially.
"Hehe… You should help your husband in this situation. Since he can't stand a woman like you in bed"
"You should go to your husband and talk to him about it because he doesn't seem to be able to hold you either"
"You two should stop it. The meeting was already exhausting and hearing you screaming is making my mood very bad." The old man who chaired the meeting intervened.
"Old Gao, you should just come home and give the dog seat to someone younger. Your old age is already making you weak and senile" The old woman commented sarcastically.
"Old woman, you're the one who should do this. Your age is older than mine." He didn't back down and retort in the same way.
The two have known each other for a long time but had a long rivalry due to some issues in the past.
"That's why your wife hates you. It's because of these kinds of comments that women hate men."
Talking about women's age was the same as offending them.
"You guys should stop this. Let's just go away and stop arguing" Bai Huang intervened.
"Bai Huang, you are still young and don't understand adult affairs. But it seems that you are very close to understanding these matters. You've grown up and are taking your first steps into adulthood by going to a man's house, even if he has two lovers. That's a good thing" Yue Yue jokes. She knew about her visit to Liu Yang's house.
"I have no ulterior motives in making that visit. Besides, he's only fifteen or sixteen, it would be considered a crime to have sex with a young man that age."
"Crime? How is this a crime? Someone like him has had all sorts of terrible experiences in a lab and army, so sleeping with an older woman comes easy for him. Also, his two lovers are older than you are, so no problem."
"..." Bai Huang just sighed and walked towards the exit, there was no reason to continue talking to the two women.
The old man just started with a thoughtful face over Bai Huang's attitude. She wasn't the type to do something without thinking, so there was something that caught her attention.
The thought that something was seen through her eyes, but that no one else could see it made him curious, not just him but the other eleven golden generals as well.
What did Bai Huang see?
