Yan Xiaohu saw this and was instantly delighted.
I knew such a large academy would have its patrons.
But upon seeing that white robe, his heart sank halfway.
Full of disappointment, he muttered to himself, "Turns out itâs just an outer courtyard disciple, I thought a tutor had come."
At this moment, the figure with his back to Yan Xiaohu leisurely said, "Gold will always shine, but you are old iron!"
Yan Xiaohu was stunned and immediately furrowed his brow, looking at him, and said, "What are you talking about?"
Unexpectedly, the other party continued, "Although I was wrong, not forgiving me is your fault."
Yan Xiaohu was displeased and couldnât help but curse, "Are you out of your mind?"
The other person seemed to not hear his angry curse, continuing to talk to himself, "Donât be nervous, Iâm not a good person!"
Yan Xiaohu immediately stepped forward to see clearly who the person was, but as soon as he approached, the other person made a few light jumps and landed steadily on the opposite tree crown.
Even so, the white-robed figure still faced away from Yan Xiaohu and leisurely said, "Every day I examine myself three times, I did nothing wrong!"
Yan Xiaohu could no longer hold back. He held a large knife, pointed forward, and stood on the corridor bridge, shouting in rage, "If you have the guts, come down and settle this with me!"
The other person seemed not to fear at all, continuing, "I like it when you canât stand me but canât defeat me either!"
Furious, Yan Xiaohu stomped his foot, spiritual power surged around him, and his body shot towards the white-robed figure like lightning.
But it was as if the other person had anticipated Yan Xiaohuâs move. Just as Yan Xiaohu made his move, the white-robed figure lightly tapped the tree crown with his toes and disappeared into the canopy with a few jumps.
"Itâs already hard to live, if you can blame others, donât blame yourself."
Even as the voice continued, Yan Xiaohu trembled with rage but could not catch up.
"If you have the guts, donât run!" Yan Xiaohu shouted hoarsely.
But the figure moved like a ghost, each time Yan Xiaohu thought he was about to catch up, the distance would instantly widen again.
"If you canât solve todayâs problem, donât worry, you wonât solve it tomorrow either!"
Hearing the provocative words, Yan Xiaohuâs eyes turned red with anger, he had never felt so aggrieved, he roared at the sky and slashed forward with a terrifying knife aura...
...
"See, I told you it fits well!"
After leaving Lin Daochenâs residence, Second Uncle carried the token and led Zhou Qing to get a set of red robes exclusive to inner courtyard disciples. Next up was choosing a cave mansion.
Zhou Qing looked at the clothes and nodded in satisfaction, then said, "Second Uncle, how long do I need to stay here?"
Second Uncle pondered for a moment and said, "It depends on you, but it canât be less than six months."
"You may have the legacy of a Level Five Array Master, but relying on yourself in seclusion has its limits. Master Lin has unique insights on arrays, youâll understand later."
Hearing Second Uncleâs suggestion, Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully.
"Brother Zhou!"
At this time, Lu Yaoyaoâs excited voice came.
Turning around, they saw Lu Yaoyao also wearing red robes, with a cold-faced Lu Yuanzhi behind her.
Zhou Qing was stunned and immediately understood.
Lu Yaoyao approached excitedly and quickly introduced Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing greeted immediately.
Lu Yuanzhi nodded slightly and said, "You can chat later, I will take Yaoyao to choose a cave mansion now."
"Brother Zhou, I will go first!" Lu Yaoyao said.
Watching the two leave, Second Uncle clicked his tongue in surprise.
"Master Lu is such an ice beauty, and sheâs probably close to reaching the Spirit Severing Realm. Sometimes I feel like sheâs deliberately holding back!"
Zhou Qing was shocked to hear this.
Many people dream of breaking through the Spirit Severing Realm but fail in their entire lives, yet she was holding back?
"Letâs go, everyone has their secrets. Iâm not one to pry into othersâ secrets!"
Second Uncle chuckled and patted Zhou Qingâs shoulder, then led him out.
Shortly after, Zhou Qing chose a very good cave mansion after careful selection.
The cave mansion was located in a quiet valley of the academy, surrounded by lush green trees, with the scent of flowers and birdsong, and a clear stream flowing gently in front of it.
Then they headed to the outer courtyard since Yan Xiaohu was still waiting.
But not long later, they saw Yan Xiaohu had been subdued by someone.
Yan Xiaohu was tightly bound by several spiritual power ropes, lying on the ground unable to move, filled with anger.
Seeing this, Zhou Qingâs heart tightened, and without saying a word, he ran towards Yan Xiaohu.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Qing angrily shouted at the several people wearing law enforcement uniforms.
Three mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, who Second Uncle said were the third tier from various sects, were the ones who subdued Yan Xiaohu.
They were stern-faced and serious. Seeing Zhou Qing and Second Uncle, they nodded slightly. One of them asked, "You know each other?"
Zhou Qing didnât bother with pleasantries and urgently asked, "What happened to him?"
The man said expressionlessly, "He is not a student of our academy, but he blatantly pursued and killed others, completely ignoring our academy rules."
Hearing this, Zhou Qing was shocked and immediately turned to Yan Xiaohu, anxiously asking, "Third Brother, what happened?"
At this moment, despite being bound, Yan Xiaohu was still full of anger and defiance. He stiffened his neck and loudly retorted, "You say I killed someone, who did I kill? Bring that person here for a confrontation!"
