When system cheat becomes rampant!-Chapter 502 - 381: Two Sword Bursts! (First Update)
A powerful aura enveloped his body, converging into a sharp and fierce energy that silently landed on Ma Kainian.
Upon seeing Xiang Beifei, Ma Kainian's heart shuddered, terrified by Xiang Beifei's formidable presence.
Xiang Beifei was rumoured to be capable of killing a One-Armed Crab at the late stage of Meridian Opening with a single punch. His presence here was no joking matter.
Ma Kainian steadied himself and cursed under his breath. After all, he was an official of the alliance. No matter how famous this youngster was, he was still just a civilian, powerless and insignificant. If anyone should be afraid, it ought to be him!
"Xiang Beifei, a big shot, huh?" Ma Kainian said in a mocking tone.
Xiang Beifei did not respond, merely glancing indifferently before walking toward Kong Daming, and asking, "I just saw the phone message. What happened to my grandfather?"
"I'm not sure. He seemed unwell just now, so I helped him upstairs to rest. He's there now," Kong Daming replied.
"Understood, I'll go see him."
Xiang Beifei, without another word, headed for the stairs.
However, Ma Kainian, seeing himself being ignored, was quite annoyed!
"Hmph! Not even the basic courtesies..."
"Scram!"
Xiang Beifei said directly.
"Yes."
Ma Kainian's mind went blank, and he involuntarily lay down and then actually rolled away on the floor.
"Ah?"
Kong Daming and Zhang Xiang watched in shock as Ma Kainian rolled away on the ground, completely dumbfounded.
Ma Kainian actually... just rolled away like that?
This turn of events was utterly unexpected.
"Why are you patrolling the archive room? Who would be idle enough to break into the archives to steal things? If you ask me, it wouldn't even matter if we didn't come here for a whole year."
Zhou Guan lazily placed his hands behind his head, following behind Sun Zhong. He wasn't very interested in this job and kept muttering all the way.
Sun Zhong went to the third floor and patrolled along the rows of rooms.
[You patrolled the N-level Talent Appraisal Department, patrol value +2]
[You patrolled the N-level Talent Dispatch Department, patrol value +2]
...
Sun Zhong made a couple of rounds in the empty rooms and then pressed a button on the wall to make sure the alarm was working correctly before leaving the room.
[You patrolled the main archive room entrance, patrol value +5]
Right then, an idea struck Zheng Xing, who promptly took out his cell phone to video call his son, then asked, "Son, you said last time that you've seen Xiang Beifei. Is this the person Xiang Beifei?"
During the freshman competition, though students from major elite schools weren't present, it was broadcasted live, so anyone who wasn't blind could recognize him.
Zheng Xing's son, although a student of Jizhou University, had also seen Xiang Beifei. The moment he saw Xiang Beifei, he excitedly exclaimed, "It's him! It's him! The genius who trampled that Qingzhou University SSR underfoot! Dad, you actually saw him? My goodness!"
That was a legendary genius!

"So it really is that Xiang Beifei!" Zheng Xing was also stunned.
His son had mentioned the freshman contest before his holiday break, and back then, he too was amazed by Xiang Beifei. Little did he expect that he would encounter such a great genius today!
After a moment, he quickly recovered and excitedly said, "He is Xiang Beifei, no doubt about it, my son met him before; he's from Jizhou University!"
Xiang Beifei momentarily set aside the matter and asked, "By the way, Uncle Kong, are there any houses for rent near your place? We're thinking of moving there."
"A house? Yes, there are. You should have moved over a long time ago. The old man keeps talking about saving up money for your missions and such. Why the sudden change of mind?" Kong Daming asked.
"Xiaofei has grown up, and the house is too shabby, he might not find a wife," Xiang Qingde said seriously.
"Hahaha, that's true," Kong Daming nodded.
But Lu Hong disagreed, "Not necessarily! If you really like each other, who cares about the house?"
"We still need a nice place to live, the old house was a bit too dark," Kong Daming said, "Leave it to me, I remember there's a family that just moved out from my floor, just two doors down from mine, diagonally opposite. It would be good to move here, easier to look out for each other."
"When is Uncle Kong's restaurant planning to open?" Xiang Beifei asked again.
The emergence of a One-Armed Crab, a type of desolate beast, hadn't been investigated thoroughly, and Xiang Beifei still hadn't found the person he currently suspected.
Xiao Sheng!
The guy who pretended to be an N-level clerk, an SR, disappeared just before the desolate beast appeared, and he wanted to see if Xiao Sheng would come back to work.
"The day after tomorrow! The staff have also been asking. Speaking of which, I need to contact those employees; we've been closed for quite a while now," Kong Daming said.
"I'll go to the wholesale market tomorrow, our supplies have been cut off, we need to renegotiate," Xiang Qingde said.
Kong Daming quickly said, "No need, Uncle Xiang, you rest, I'll go."
"We've been resting for so long, I need to get moving, and I know the place well anyway. There is a lot of prep for reopening, and many customers have booked appointments, waiting for your reopening. You'll be busy, I can go tomorrow," Xiang Qingde waved his hand, insisting.
Unable to persuade him otherwise, Kong Daming could only agree.
When Xiang Beifei returned home, he made sure to talk briefly in front of the living room camera with his grandfather, clarifying his reasons for moving. He outright said he could now earn money and simply didn't want to live there anymore.
For a martial artist in the Meridian Opening phase, earning enough to support oneself was far from difficult. The person monitoring their home, unless foolish, could simply ask around at school and would certainly understand Xiang Beifei's current Cultivation Realm, making this an excuse no one would suspect.
With that, he figured the person would likely find new premises. Xiang Beifei was curious to see who would dare to secretly install surveillance under his observation.
Having said all this, Xiaohei then blocked the camera again.
That evening, the grandfather and grandson packed up their belongings together, and really, there were quite a lot of them.
"We'll need to call a cab; there's no elevator, so later we'll carry it down together," Xiang Qingde pondered on how to move in the easiest way possible.
"I can handle the stuff myself, Grandpa doesn't need to worry too much, just rest," Xiang Beifei said.
"How can that be? You can't move so much stuff by yourself! Grandpa can still do some work, I'll help you carry it," Xiang Qingde worried his grandson might exhaust himself, as moving was indeed laborious.
Xiang Beifei couldn't help but laugh and cry, "Grandpa, why do I always feel like you forget I'm a martial artist?"
"So what if you're a martial artist? Many martial artists still need to hire people when they move," Xiang Qingde said.
Xiang Beifei stomped his foot again, and all the already packed boxes floated up, hovering mid-air.
Light as a feather.
He made the items lighter, then used his Spiritual Power to pull them all up.
Xiang Qingde looked on in amazement, "I didn't know you had this ability!"
Xiang Beifei realized he rarely discussed his abilities with his grandfather. He laughed, let the items down, then glanced at the ceiling camera again and said, "Don't worry, from now on, I'll handle everything, Grandpa just needs to rest."
Xiang Qingde paused, staring blankly at Xiang Beifei.
Once upon a time, he had always been careful to protect his grandson, his self-esteem, telling him to keep an upbeat attitude and not to give up on himself.
But ever since awakening his system, his grandson seemed like a changed person.
