Chapter 538 537 Want You Dead!
Wang Minghe never took Qin Heng seriously.
After he bumped into Qin Heng and Su Xiao in the office, he went back and inquired about Qin Heng's identity. He found out that Qin Heng was just an ordinary history student—he had only asked about a student and didn't investigate further.
To a professor, an ordinary student was like an ant, easily crushed with a few simple tricks!
There was absolutely no threat at all!
Therefore, Wang Minghe was completely undaunted.
"Quite bold, aren't you." Qin Heng looked at Wang Minghe with some surprise and said, "Do you know who you're talking to?"
"Qin Heng!" Li Lan shouted sternly, her gaze fixed on Qin Heng with a stern expression. "What way is that to talk! Are you still a student at Beijing University? Is that how ruffians talk? It seems I really need to speak with the department head and observe you closely!"
"Mom! I don't think there's a need for observation! This kid is just a degenerate!" Wang Minghe shook his head and said, "Look how quickly he's gotten involved with Su Xiao. He even made Su Xiao ignore your words. I think this kid is definitely malicious trash! He should be expelled from Beijing University!"
"You have a point," Li Lan nodded. "A student like this staying at Beijing University would indeed have a very bad influence. If word spread, it might even tarnish the image of our Beijing University."
"Kid! Did you hear that?" Wang Minghe looked at Qin Heng and snorted coldly. "A rotten apple like you, staying in Beijing University, is a disgrace to the university. Just a few words from my mother to your department head, and in a few days, you'll be packing up and going home!
"However, you're not completely without a chance. Now, if you kneel before me, kowtow and apologize, and swear that you'll never approach Su Xiao again, I might let you off this time."
Saying this, he slightly raised his head, looking at Qin Heng with an arrogant expression, sneering continuously.
In Wang Minghe's view, Qin Heng would definitely not dare to continue his defiance. After all, for an ordinary person, attending Beijing University was like a fish leaping through the dragon gate; no one would give it up.
Kneel down and apologize, and you can keep your status as a student of Beijing University. That would definitely be the choice of the majority.
"Alas," Qin Heng sighed lightly, his gaze sweeping over Li Lan and Wang Minghe. "Why are there always people courting death?"
"Qin Heng, don't be rash," Su Xiao hurriedly interjected. She knew Qin Heng was a Grandmaster of Transcendence and could kill an ordinary person as easily as squashing an ant.
But, the other party was a professor at Beijing University, after all!
Such a status undoubtedly granted entry to the upper echelons of Beijing society. If he were to kill such a person, Qin Heng would definitely attract endless trouble.
"You little beast, who are you saying is courting death?" Wang Minghe looked at Qin Heng with a sneer. "Are you out of your mind? Can't you see the situation you're in?"
Qin Heng's expression remained unchanged. He looked at Wang Minghe and indifferently said, "Kneel!"
Those two words! It was as if his words were a heavenly decree, causing the air around them to solidify!
In Wang Minghe's eyes, an indescribable terror appeared. It was as if he saw the most frightening thing in the world at that moment. His mind went blank, and he knelt down on the spot!
Kneeling before Qin Heng!
"AAAAAH!!!" Wang Minghe screamed, enraged to the extreme. He wanted to stand up but found himself pressed down by an invisible, tremendous force, unable to move an inch!
This feeling was too terrifying. He felt like a powerless infant facing an extremely powerful adult, with no room for resistance!
"What have you done?!" Li Lan was shocked beyond belief. She looked at Qin Heng incredulously, a bad feeling welled up in her heart as she murmured, "Martial Artist!? Are you a Martial Artist?? Half-Step Transcendence?!"
To make an ordinary person kneel with just two words—such strength had to be at least that of a Half-step Grandmaster, or even a powerhouse at the Grandmaster of Transcendence level!
Qin Heng was only eighteen years old. Li Lan simply couldn't believe there would be a Grandmaster of that age; she could only think that Qin Heng might be at Half-Step Transcendence!
At this thought, Li Lan took a deep breath, her gaze cold as she looked at Qin Heng. "Qin Heng! No wonder you dare to be so arrogant; it turns out you are a Half-step Grandmaster. It's just a pity that this is not the era of Martial Artists!
"If you dare to touch me, a professor at Beijing University, I guarantee you won't be able to walk out of Beijing alive! And moreover, I am not just a professor at Beijing University!"
Li Lan wasn't actually afraid of Martial Artists. Unless the other party was a Great Grandmaster who had stepped into the Innate realm, she had nothing to fear. This fearlessness was partly due to the exalted status of a Beijing University professor.
But more so, it was because of her family background!
"Beijing University professor?" Qin Heng, however, shook his head. "You won't be one for much longer! Tan Wenhe, you've been hiding there for so long, do you really think I didn't see you?"
Tan Wenhe!? The President of Beijing University, Tan Wenhe!?
At this, Li Lan, Wang Minghe, and Su Xiao all froze, turning their heads in the direction Qin Heng indicated, their expressions ones of utter astonishment and shock!
"Young Master Qin, I wasn't hiding on purpose, really not on purpose!" Tan Wenhe, upon being discovered, quickly ran out from the crowd. He came before Qin Heng and bowed respectfully, bowing and scraping like a sycophantic dog.
BOOM!
Seeing this, Li Lan and Wang Minghe felt as if their entire worldview had collapsed. They were shocked to the core, almost believing they were hallucinating!
How is this possible! How can this be possible!
It really was Tan Wenhe, the President of Beijing University!
Tan Wenhe was actually so respectful toward this young man! Why!?
He was the President of Beijing University, yet he was behaving so respectfully towards a freshman, just like a servant seeing their master!
Su Xiao was also stunned, her face a picture of disbelief as she looked at Qin Heng and Tan Wenhe. Her head was buzzing; this was the President of Beijing University, after all!
Compared to a professor like Li Lan, his status was unimaginably higher!
And now, such an important figure was actually showing Qin Heng such respect? Even if Qin Heng was a Grandmaster of Transcendence, this was too exaggerated, wasn't it!
Inconceivable! It's too inconceivable!
"You handle the rest," Qin Heng said indifferently, then gently patted Su Xiao on the head. "Let's go. Stop spacing out. In a few days, you can get yourself a new advisor."
"Ah?" Su Xiao was still a bit dazed, not quite grasping what was happening, and subconsciously followed behind Qin Heng, leaving the place.
* * *
"President Tan, what… what's happening here?"
Li Lan approached Tan Wenhe, pointing towards the departing Qin Heng, and whispered, "Who exactly is this Qin Heng? Who is he, for you to show him such respect?"
Tan Wenhe's deference to Qin Heng was so shocking it nearly made her glasses fall off. It was simply too inconceivable!
"Who is he?" Tan Wenhe sneered. "He's someone you cannot afford to provoke! Li Lan, if you must blame someone, blame yourself for failing to recognize Mount Tai! Starting today, you are fired from Beijing University. In a couple of days, the Ministry of Education will also contact you to revoke your professor title! Hmph!"
Having said that, Tan Wenhe turned and left, not wanting to say another word to Li Lan, as if avoiding the plague, fearing he'd get burned.
"How can this be possible!? How can this be!?" Li Lan sank to her knees with a thud, her eyes filled with despair. With her professorship revoked, she would be nothing more than an ordinary teacher from now on!
The difference between that and a professor was like heaven and earth!
"No! It can't end like this!" Clenching her fists, Li Lan's eyes blazed red, flickering with murderous intent as she gritted her teeth. "Minghe, we're going to Yu State! To see your grandfather! That brat is at most a Half-Step Transcendence!
"Our Li family has a Grandmaster of Transcendence! You little brat, no matter who you are, since you've pushed me to this point, I'm going to make you die!"
