Chapter 1169 - Hotpot with the JODEs -unedited

The rest looked how eager Rong was and they could not help but chuckle. One moment he was angry as the bull chased after the red cloth and the moment he was willing to travel to the depths of hell with Jin.
Even as the others felt opinionated to the current situation, they decided to stick with Rong as they always have. Even though he was not the leader, what he said made sense. There was nothing the Demon Exorcist could do at the moment with the current stand down orders. However, it was a different thing if what Jin said was true.
If they could travel to other worlds and they were as dangerous as what Jin had mentioned, it might be the opportunity they were looking for to improve their skills and garner more experience under their belt.
What's more, their batch had been ostracised by most because their cultivation requires constant fighting to gain better understanding of their powers and for the cultivators to nuture them to higher heights.
Grandma Yuan was able to provide guidance mainly because she went through the second world war as a young ȧduŀt and she knew the terrors of war to replicate the kind of training these kinds of Demon Cultivators had to go through to move up the ranks.
In hindsight, Jin also felt that Grandma Yuan had purposely ȧssigned them to him because she knew that he was the only one that could further their cultivation in his kind of environment. It might not be the most ideal but it was better than the current demon exorcist scene that the organisation is currently displaying. Especially with the recent incident, the demon exorcists were not as trained as the public thought they would be and there had been feedback with much concern despite the JODE organisation resurrecting the Demon Exorcists they could find. (Yes, they could find. Some of the Dan Tian had been broken by the clashes against the Bone Spirits that the organisation merely gave a compensation package to the affected families.)
So, with the latest JODE Academy, Jin hoped to improve the image of Demon Exorcists while keeping Grandma Yuan under the employment of JODE. But in order to do that, he needed the approval of Lee Na, the COO of JODE and Su Zhen's mother. So as he wanted to send the four of them to a mission as soon as possible, they should at least wait till tomorrow since he needed them to be at his side for the negotiations to be smooth sailing.
"Awww…fine. At the very least, there is something to look forward to." Rong said as he pouted thinking he could go on a mission right here and now.
"Think about it this way, have a good dinner tonight and start the mission tomorrow with strength. You all knew how nutritiously potent Lynn's food is, right?" Jin said and the rest all agreed to it.
--------------
"Apologies for the self invitation." Jin said as he entered the room filled with the Demon Exorcists. However, to his surprise, he even saw the Chancellor of JODE within the chambers of Lynn's Train Restaurant Instance.
"Ah! Chancellor Ma Ge…it's a pleasant surprise to see you here." Jin said and Ma Ge shook his head.
"Lein took the chance to invite me here, saying that Lee Na and the rest of the newly officiated Demon Exorcists are having their celebration dinner. I thought I would join in for a moment if they were to allow it. To be able to see you here is an extra bonus." Ma Ge smiled wide as he moved aside and asked whether Jin would like to sit beside him.
"Its my honour." Jin pretended since he was after all the top dog of the upper echelon ranks in JODE. Of course, he would play cordial to gain his favour as this was the best opportunity to discuss with Ma Ge about the current JODE Academy. However, he had a hunch that the feeling was mutual.
To his surprise, the Demon Exorcists were not exactly very uptight with their behaviour and ate as they would usually do despite having the 'adults' in their midst but everything changed when there was a knock at the door. Claire came in and she brought along Grandma Yuan which caused the kids to suddenly behave prim and proper.
Grandma Yuan told them to relax and she sat at the opposite end of the table away from Ma Ge. The rest of the kids were relieved and they continued their hotpot dinner while already saving some of the best ingredients for Grandma Yuan to partake.
"Su Zhen! You gave Grandma Yuan that and not your mother?" Even Lee Na was a tad jealous by the behaviour of her child.
"This is because they also treat their teacher as their own parent. (A Chinese proverb)" Ma Ge said but the mood turned a little more serious when Grandma Yuan opened her mouth. Even though she was lower rank in JODE, her seniority still meant something to the upper echelon.
"I am actually here to talk about the JODE Academy which Jin had created. I was late because I went to take a look myself before coming here." Grandma Yuan said.
"Ah yes, I heard from Su Zhen about it and she even took some pictures for me that I felt was surreal. To finally have a full fledged academy of our own in this modern age is not just a feat, but an achievement that will be remembered in the future." Lee Na commented.
"I believed there is more to that since I could not help but discuss a few things with Lein privately beforehand." Ma Ge remarked and it seems they did not wish to beat the bush around Grandma Yuan.
"I will take the spot as the first principal regardless of your approval." Grandma Yuan stated while she placed a piece of meat in her mouth. She ȧssumed that there would be resistance but as she looked up to see the faces of the other two JODE executives, all they had was approval in their expression.
"Yes, we like you to be." Ma Ge said with a gradual nod.
