Chapter 1724 So You're Really Poor, Not Pretending to Be Poor

Hearing that, Lu Zijia was slightly surprised. "Dean, who did you hear that from?"

"I bumped into those two brothers when I came back. Xu Qi said so." Du He didn't hide anything and directly exposed Xu Qi.

Lu Zijia: "…" Xu Qi really came with a promotional effect!

However, she didn't say that this piece of news couldn't be spread. It would be abnormal if Xu Qi suppressed it.

"Yes, but not much."

Lu Zijia nodded slightly and said, "Dean, do you want the Mystic Golden Core Pill too?"

Du He walked into the pavilion and poured himself a cup of tea before saying angrily, "An old friend of mine has always wanted the Mystic Golden Core Pill. He begged that bastard Liao Zhenshan a few times but was rejected. That bastard did it on purpose!"

Thinking that he had implicated his old friend because of him, Du He still felt guilty.

Lu Zijia nodded in understanding. The Dean's old friend should be begging for another junior.

"It's all thanks to my old friend that I was able to get the materials to set up the array. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to give them to you." Du He sighed.

Lu Zijia blinked and thought to herself, So… The director is really poor, and isn't just pretending to be poor!

However, even if he was really poor, she still had to get what she deserved. Otherwise, she would be letting down her reputation as a miser, tightwad!

"I still have three Mystic Golden Core Pills here. If you can afford them, I can sell them all to you."

When she refined the Mystic Golden Core Pills for her uncle back then, she refined a total of seven. Her uncle used three to advance to the Golden Core realm, and she gave one to Xu Xiu as compensation.

The remaining three pills might be enough for Ah Yan to take when he advanced to the Golden Core realm, but three Mystic Golden Core Pills were definitely not enough for her, who had completely useless roots.

So, she had to think of a way to find a few more spiritual plants to refine more Mystic Golden Core Pills to make sufficient preparations for advancing to the Golden Core realm.

"Three?!"

Du He didn't have much hope at first. After all, the Mystic Golden Core Pill was hard to find. He didn't expect Lu Zijia to really have the Mystic Golden Core Pill in her hand.

And it wasn't just one, but three!

This girl was too exciting!

"Lassl, you've been saving these Mystic Golden Core Pills for a long time, right?" Du He said hesitantly.

Even though he wanted to help his old friend resolve his worries, he wasn't willing to take away Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan's opportunities.

Especially when Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan had done so much for the Martial Arts Department.

Lu Zijia thought for a while. It had been almost a year since her uncle advanced. It should have been a long time, right?

So, Lu Zijia nodded slightly. "It's alright."

Du He struggled for a while, but in the end, he didn't make a choice against his will.

"Forget it, you should keep these three Mystic Golden Core Pills!"

Du He took a sip of tea and reminded Lu Zijia, "Don't let anyone else know that you have the Mystic Golden Core Pill, in case someone has designs on you."

Lu Zijia: "???" What was wrong with the dean today? Did he suffer a blow that made him change his personality instantly?

"Dean, are you alright?"

Lu Zijia looked at Du He with obvious bewilderment.

Du He, who didn't notice Lu Zijia's strange gaze, was a bit touched in his mind. He waved his hand and said, "It's fine. What can happen? At most, I can spend more effort to ask for pills. If it still didn't work, I can go to another continent to ask for pills. I don't believe that bastard Liao Zhenshan can still reach out to other continents!"
