Chapter 457: As Expected, a Little Bastard
Two hundred and sixty thousand, Gu An thought it was a waste.
Two people drinking tea could cost so much.
What kind of tea were they drinking?
They must drink the best every day to spend so many Spirit Stones, right?
After all, among the many disciples of the Cangmu Sect, they only earn a few dozen to a hundred Spirit Stones each month.
Those with high cultivation, only a few thousand.
After deducting cultivation and other expenses, those with deep cultivation can save one or two thousand.
There can't be many people who spend ten thousand Spirit Stones a month.
But this First Institute has two of them.
Additionally, Gu An looked curiously at Pang Wen: "Does the First Institute have such high profits?"
"Yes, some people make talismans, some practice alchemy, and some find treasures," Pang Wen explained seriously: "After deducting expenses and some cultivation resources in a year, roughly sixteen thousand Spirit Stones are left.
This has already subtracted the expenses of Xia Wanli and the others.
Now after a few years, the First Institute still has at least five hundred thousand in liquid funds.
Those cultivation techniques can also be rented, and the income is quite stable.
Other institutes probably aren't much worse than us either.
But they don't have people who can find treasures.
In comprehensive terms, they still can't compare to us."
Gu An: "..."
Unknowingly, the First Institute has become so wealthy.
And yet here I am, picking Spirit Stones outside.
Life's been a bit embarrassing.
This headmaster position is somewhat derelict.
Fortunately, I still have around two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, so it's not too bad.
After a pause, Gu An continued: "Xia Wanli is very strong, let him handle things that are unsolvable.
If he doesn't go then..."
"Let him go," Pang Wen quickly replied.
Gu An looked at Pang Wen with some surprise and said, "Yes, let him go, if he doesn't cooperate, just leave this place."
At this time, Si Wuyao on the side heard Gu An and Pang Wen's conversation and was a bit incredulous.
Letting people go if they don't cooperate.
He hesitated slightly and said, "What about me not cooperating?"
Gu An glanced at him lightly, "Someone wants to buy you, senior."
Si Wuyao: "..."
He vaguely knew who it was, it was that woman last time.
Hesitating a bit, he decided to stay here.
Especially since his weakness was still in the opponent's hands, running away wouldn't help.
His body was weak, and he could be killed at any moment.
He was just curious, as there was news from his clan that his archenemy was fake.
He wondered how these people were doing recently.
And the archenemy he saw before, whether it was real or fake.
Then Gu An walked further inside.
The others watched Gu An go inside, somewhat incredulous.
"What happened to the headmaster? Why has he suddenly become so young?" Yue Han asked curiously.
"Maybe it's because he's getting married," Zhao Qingshan laughed and said, "The headmaster must be very satisfied with the Commandery Princess, otherwise, why would he be like this?"
Chen Changfeng said resentfully, "What virtues and abilities does that Commandery Princess have? Our headmaster is a strong practitioner who has cultivated the Three Flowers, does the Commandery Princess also have the Three Flowers? I heard she's only in her twenties or thirties, it's probably difficult for her to reach the Golden Core stage."
He then looked at Princess Yue Han and said, "Is the Commandery Princess as much of a waste as you, both Foundation Establishment Experts?"
Yue Han sipped her tea and said, "The headmaster cultivated the Three Flowers at fifty, what were you doing at fifty? Did you achieve the Immortal Bridge? Have you Returned to Void? Have you achieved the Primordial Spirit?"
Chen Changfeng: "...."
Yue Han sighed, "A Heaven's Chosen Son like the headmaster didn't call you a waste; how can you have the nerve to call me a waste with your cultivation?
But I admit I'm a waste, do you admit it?"
Chen Changfeng calmly said, "A waste at three hundred years old, still at Foundation Establishment."
"I am the headmaster's aunt," Yue Han said.
"Royal Family parasite."
"I am the headmaster's aunt."
"The worst prisoner in the First Institute."
"I am the headmaster's aunt."
Chen Changfeng: "Can you stop mentioning this?"
Yue Han: "Then what are you to the headmaster?"
"I am the headmaster's most loyal prisoner."
"I am his aunt."
"..."
Gu An naturally heard the conversation afterwards, not sure why they were talking so much.
After thinking for a moment, Gu An decided he should modify the cells, set up a room in the middle as a classroom, let them take turns being teachers, and then let the people from the First Institute learn well.
It seemed easy to make progress.
He shared the idea with Pang Wen, who was naturally delighted.
However, he couldn't determine who was eligible to participate.
Gu An hesitated for a moment and decided to let Zhao Qingshan choose people.
Speaking of which, he should have left a long time ago but still stayed here.
Besides, Gu An decided to give them two days off every week, to go outside, get some air, or earn Spirit Stones.
Gradually, they should long for a life outside.
Then leave the First Institute.
Still caring too much about the feelings of this group of parasites.
Subsequently, Gu An came to the innermost corner.
Three people were held here.
Although they were separated, the cells were side by side.
Moreover, each person had a peaceful expression, seemingly as if they wouldn't be trapped here for long.
Additionally, their status was quite good.
They felt that the Array here had little effect on them.
And the only thing useful was the binding left on them by the Law Enforcement Hall.
However, the binding was not endless and was slowly weakening.
Once it weakened to a certain extent, they would be able to escape.
Ultimately, everything was temporary.
However, upon seeing the latest arrival, they were all slightly taken aback.
The person exuded an aura, with a calm expression, and a presence so serene that it was hard to look away.
A strong practitioner?
No, Golden Core Perfection?
Concealing his cultivation?
They were both shocked and uncertain.
Gu An looked at them as well, noticing that they did not show the slightest hint of disdain towards him.
Why?
Because he was young?
Does being young instill such fear?
Gu An didn't think much more but carefully observed the three of them.
Two men and one woman.
The men appeared youthful, around twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
However, one man's hair had some white strands, and the other had short red hair, like flames burning.
