Chapter 1555 - 1557

Chapter 1555: “Play A Little With You (1)”

Jun Wu Xie’s life in the Cloudy Brook Academy was gradually being changed subtly and her task at the Waning Moon Chambers everyday was to cultivate. She was needed to clean up the place a little occasionally but most of the time, Su Ya wanted Jun Wu Xie to spend all her energy upon her cultivation.

Steeped under that air so densely filled with the scent of wine daily, Jun Wu Xie seemed to have gradually developed a stronger resistance against the fumes of the wine and no longer felt woozy that easily anymore.

But, soaking herself almost entirely in wine and it was for half a day at a time, even if Jun Wu Xie brought clean clothes to change everyday, the scent of wine that remained on her skin still could not be rid, to the extent that when she walked through the grounds of the Cloudy Brook Academy everyday, many of the youths could smell that strong scent

of wine from her body for a long way off.

The words about Jun Wu Xie grew more more harsh, sweeping over the entire Cloudy Brook Academy like a powerful surging tide. Not only the freshmen who had just been admitted into the academy knew about it, even the seniors gradually came to catch wind of Jun Wu Xie’s “glorious exploits”. Throughout the whole Cloudy Brook Academy from the top to the bottom, everyone knew of that piece of useless trash that possessed merely average powers and had just depended on the traits of his unique race to gain entry into the Cloudy Brook Academy. He was also the first one, throughout the entire history of the Cloudy Brook Academy, to be disregarded by the academy, and left to live or perish on his own.

All those highly unkind discussions stomped Jun Wu Xie’s reputation right into the mud, the words growing more and more excessive that made people subconsciously overlook the fact that Jun Wu Xie was the

the first person ever to have received the invitations of all Twelve Palaces as well.

The freshmen from the Blood Fiend Palace, would always go help Jun Wu Xie “fortify and strengthen” Jun Wu Xie’s dismal reputation, regardless of who it was that spoke ill of Jun Wu Xie, they would always use the same line to rebut them, bringing up the fact that Jun Wu Xie was unique and one of a kind, which just caused the people from the other palaces to become more and more disgusted with Jun Wu Xie.

From initially just ignoring, to become genuinely hostile. Every single day when Jun Wu Xie returned, the front of her door was always filled with rubbish and even the face of the door had been deeply scratched with something sharp, with characters that read “rubbish”, “trash”, and other insulting and degrading words, the voice that taunted and ridiculed her never ceasing for a moment.

Towards all that, Jun Wu Xie had never shown any reaction at all.

Till one

all.

Till one day, when a pile of food trash that had gone bad was thrown outside her door and the face was her door was smeared with absolute filth.

Jun Wu Xie’s brows finally creased up and under the sniggles of a group of people, she opened her door and walked inside.

“Meow my whiskers off! Those people are really becoming too much!” Immediately upon entering the room, the little black cat could not hold itself back and it leapt out, pacing angrily upon the table as it flashed its sharp claws out.

Jun Wu Xie had not held it against those rascally kids because she had not seen the need to and she also did not have the leisure nor time to. These youths who had not even set foot within the Twelve Palaces were not even worth her making a single move against them.

But even a clay figurine retains some of the fire from the kiln.

Jun Wu Xie had been able to disregard the other things they had done, buthad done, but when the highly nauseating stench continued to seep through the gaps in the door inside, that had made Jun Wu Xie became rather annoyed.

“I think Mistress really should show them a thing or two, this entire bunch of little bastards who do not know who they’re dealing with!” The little black cat was so angry that it scratched at the table with its claws, which gave out a highly ear piercing noise. Throughout this period, if Jun Wu Xie had not held them back, just Ye Sha and Ye Gu had wanted to send this whole bunch of scoundrels right into hell so many times. But those wretched kids had not only not toned down, they had even carried things further.

They were just carrying bullying to an intolerable level.

Jun Wu Xie sat by the table, her brows creased together as she stared at the tightly shut door. Even if she could not see it, someone else must be up to mischief again outside that door.

Chapter 1556

That the freshmen of the Cloudy Brook Academy would be unhappy with her, she could understand it fully as she had guessed at such a result from the beginning. Before all this happened, Jun Wu Xie had prepared herself to a certain extent. She had planned to reveal her inestimable value before the Elders of the Twelve Palaces, that would make her untouchable and to instead try all ways and means to win her over, which her plan had perfectly achieved initially.

In the beginning, those youths had indeed adhered to the instructions the various palaces had given them, none of them daring to find any trouble with Jun Wu Xie blatantly. As for the debates and conflicting words among them, Jun Wu Xie could not be bothered about it.

But things began to change when the Blood Fiend Palace’s strange actions started.

If the situation had remained to be like it had from the beginning, no one would have dared to defy the instructions given to them by the palaces they belonged to and carried things too far with Jun Wu Xie. But the Blood Fiend Palace’s constant “protection” of her had provoked and incited the emotions of the hot blooded youths to the extreme.

As youths who were more prone to hot bloodedness and exuberance than logic, being fanned up by people in such a manner, how could they be expected to still remember the instructions they had been given some time ago? The fact that they had not gotten into a fight with Jun Wu Xie directly was already considered to be the greatest extent of rationality they were capable of.

But even though that was the case, Jun Wu Xie’s life had been greatly disrupted.

The reason for all of this, was something Jun Wu Xie already knew.

It was just a ploy by the Blood Fiend Palace, wishfully thinking that by isolating her from all the others and when she was being attacked on all sides by enemies, they could then show up as a saviour, to then gain her favour.

It must be said, that though the ploy was vicious, they had at least been seen to have used their brains a little.

But.....

Jun Wu Xie’s eyes then narrowed up dangerously.

People who seeked to make use of her, must be fully prepared to be used back by her.

An icy chill flashed within Jun Wu Xie’s eyes. She stood up suddenly and walked out of the door. All the youths who had been gathered along the corridor to watch the show did not show the slightest tinge of remorse when they saw Jun Wu Xie come out, sinister smiles still hanging from their faces.

Jun Wu Xie’s face was cold as she walked to stand in front of Gu Xin Yan’s door, and rapped loudly upon it before everyone there.

The instant Gu Xin Yan opened her door, she immediately saw Jun Wu with his delicate features standing before her door without any expression on his face. Having Jun Wu appear before her door made Gu Xin Yan showed a glint of surprise within her eyes.

It must be known that for the past few months, she had tried so hard to pull her relationship with Jun Wu closer and she had often gone up to the kid’s door in visit. But she had not even been able to win even the slightest smile from Jun Wu, not to mention having him come to her door in reciprocation. Jun Wu had never once come to seek her on his own initiative.

But today, Jun Wu had actually come to knock upon her door on his own accord!

That was something that Gu Xin Yan had not expected at all.

“Jun Wu? Is there anything you need from me?” Although surprised by Jun Wu’s actions, Gu Xin Yan was however still able to portray a highly bright smile upon her face.

Regardless of what Jun Wu had come to seek her for, at least Jun Wu had taken this one first step!

“Have you got time?” Jun Wu Xie asked calmly.

Gu Xin Yan immediately nodded.

“Take a walk with me.” Jun Wu Xie said, extending an invitation to Gu Xin Yan.

Shock immediately showed on Gu Xin Yan’s face. Jun Wu was inviting her to go for a walk? This..... really gave Gu Xin Yan quite a shock.

But before Gu Xin Yan was able to give any reaction, Jun Wu had already turned himself around and walked towards the outside.

Gu Xin Yan was not willing to even delay a moment and she quickly rushed to catch up.

All the youths standing along the corridor stared in shock as they watched Jun Wu and Gu Xin Yan walking one behind the other past them, and the youths’ eyes filled up with incredulity.

Chapter 1557

Gu Xin Yan’s identity was known to most of the freshmen and even if they were not subservient to the Blood Fiend Palace, they would still not dare to offend Gu Xin Yan carelessly. Afterall, comparing a new recruit to the daughter of a Palace Lord, the disparity in status was one that could never be bridged. When the other youths saw Gu Xin Yan, though they were not as serville as the youths from the Blood Fiend Palace, they still at least greeted her with a smiling face. Added to that, Gu Xin Yan looked very beautiful and among all the girls who were new like them, Gu Xin Yan was among the prettiest of the lot.

Towards Gu Xin Yan, the freshmen youths only felt much envy and admiration.

Even when the people from the Blood Fiend Palace had defended Jun Wu Xie before, Gu Xin Yan had not come forth much, which just made everyone admire Gu Xin Yan even more as they thought that she did not like Jun Wu all that much like them, but now.....

[Jun Wu had barely spoken two sentences to Gu Xin Yan, a total of just nine words and Gu Xin Yan had immediately decided to follow that kid just like that? !]

[What kind of a situation was that! ?]

[That was the Young Miss of the Blood Fiend Palace you know! ?]

[Just two statement from Jun Wu and he has managed to bring her away?]

The entire bunch of youths nearly suffered internal injuries from holding themselves back from bursting out.

Jun Wu Xie walked out of the loft building very quickly, to walk towards a quiet and tranquil spot within the Cloudy Brook Academy. It was just about dusk and the glorious slanting rays of evening spilled across the ground, shrouding the majestic white loft building in an intoxicating warm shade, while several disciples who had just concluded their cultivation training were just returning.

When Jun Wu Xie’s gaze spotted a certain tall figure among the youths, she gradually slowed down her speed as she continued to move forward.

Lin Hao Yu was just returning from training and he was with several other hot blooded youths. Similar to Gu Xin Yan, they were from the main branch of the Blood Fiend Palace. His Grandfather was an Elder in the Blood Fiend Palace and it could be said that he grew up together with Gu Xin Yan from a very young age. Gu Xin Yan’s identity as the Young Miss of the Blood Fiend Palace had made other youths constantly eager to please her and Lin Hao Yu’s identity had those youths willing to flatter him endlessly.

Lin Hao Yu was all smiles as he enjoyed the flattery the youths around him was heaping onto him but he suddenly saw Jun Wu appear and the smile on his face changed subtly.

He knew exactly what kind of situation Jun Wu was in during that period as all the “protection” of Jun Wu by the youths from the Blood Fiend Palace were all acting under his instructions. He fully understood what kind of results all that “protection” would ultimately bring to Jun Wu.

[Jun Wu‘s days in here must have been quite a torment!]

And what pleased Lin Hao Yu even more was that Jun Wu’s personality was cold and distant, and the kid had not shown the slightest sign of caving in even after so long. That had just given Lin Hao Yu more reason to torment Jun Wu, without needing him to be worried about Gu Xin Yan blaming him for it.

Seeing the state Jun Wu was in, just led Lin Hao Yu to be absolutely filled with delight.

[So what if he’s the only person from the Spirit Mastery race?]

[That kid’s just a moron who does not possess enough brains. He had only needed to use his brain a little and that kid was about to be played to death by him!]

But as Lin Hao Yu smiled, soon, he discovered that he could no longer smile out anymore!

Because he soon saw Gu Xin Yan chasing with quick steps after Jun Wu. Jun Wu seemed like he was willing to wait for her as he stood in his spot for a brief moment, till Gu Xin Yan caught up to him, before he saw the two of them departing from his line of sight together as a pair.

Under the beautiful setting sun, the sight of the back view of that youth and the young girl walking shoulder to shoulder was suddenly like a hot branding iron, that burnt Lin Hao Yu’s eyes.

[That was the scene that he was most unwilling to see!]

“Damn it.” Lin Hao Yu cursed in a soft voice.

He did not understand what had actually happened. Why had Jun Wu who had not paid Gu Xin Yan any heed till yesterday suddenly came to be walking together with Gu Xin Yan today. He knew clearly that throughout the implementation of his plan, the relationship between Gu Xin Yan and Jun Wu Xie had not progressed in anyway.
