Ji Yunxi didn't think Rong Hua would harm her. It was just that this inexplicable feeling was really uncomfortable.
Could it be that Rong Hua knew Feng Yunxi?
If Rong Hua really came from the upper realm, they must have known each other in Feng Yunxi's previous life. But she had no impression of Rong Hua at all. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure it out.
"Forget it. Let it be for now. A Shu, you continue to investigate, but be more discreet. Don't let the news leak out."
She had morning classes the next day, so after giving instructions to Lu Shu, she let him leave first.
"Yes."
Hearing this, Lu Shu was about to leave. Just as he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and pointed at Qing Xuan. "My Lady, let Qing Xuan see me off."
Qing Xuan immediately shook his head. He was extremely reluctant.
Ji Yunxi glanced at them and smiled helplessly. "You can sort out your own matters. Don't fight or make noise to disturb others."
She didn't have the time to watch them quarrel. She turned around and went into the inner room.
"Shall we go?" Lu Shu looked at Qing Xuan with a sly look on his face, raising his eyebrows.
Qing Xuan followed reluctantly. "Hurry up and turn invisible. If you go in and out so openly, what will people say about our Lady in the future?"
"Got it. Let's go. Why are you in such a bad temper now?"
"I have a good temper. It just depends on who I'm dealing with."
Lu Shu followed behind him with a smile. "How was it? You went into the God - created World with our Lady. Wasn't it fun?"
"Yes, it was really interesting. We met Tao Wu and almost lost our lives. Do you want to try it?"
Lu Shu stopped in his tracks. "Tao Wu? Are you kidding me? That's an ancient divine beast!"
"Who's kidding you? Do I look like I'm joking?" Qing Xuan rolled his eyes. "But from what our Lady said, the appearance of Tao Wu was rather fishy. Although the immortals on Kunlun Mountain were trying to make things difficult for us, they wouldn't go so far as to directly take someone's life."
Lu Shu frowned and fell into deep thought. "Who could have brought Tao Wu here? It's an ancient divine beast."
Qing Xuan blurted out, "The Moon - watching Pavilion?"
Lu Shu shook his head slightly. "They're just like us, a martial arts organization. If our Dream - Flower Pavilion can't do it, they probably can't either."
"I'm not so sure."
Qing Xuan remembered the scene when he met Jiang Yaoji. "That Jiang Yaoji doesn't seem simple at all. I always feel a strange aura from her."
"What's so strange? Don't scare me."
"I can't put my finger on it. I just feel that she's very dangerous."
The two of them walked and chatted as if there was no one else around, all the way down the mountain.
Lu Shu turned around, bowed his hands, and said, "I'm going back. You're on the mountain. Please take care of our two Ladies."
Qing Xuan had never seen Lu Shu so polite before. He was a bit stunned for a moment. "You, you, you don't have to be like this! What's in your mind? What do you want?"
Lu Shu was so angry that he laughed. He was just having a nice conversation with him, but this guy was not used to it?
"What? Do you have to fight to feel comfortable?"
Qing Xuan mumbled, "I'd rather fight..."
Seeing that Qing Xuan didn't look well today, Lu Shu couldn't help but whisper, "Take care of yourself too."
"... Hurry up and go!"
Ji Yunxi dozed off for several more hours. She was still not fully awake when it was time for the morning class. She was dragged all the way by Li Jiuge.
As soon as they walked into the room, everyone suddenly fell silent. Then they started whispering about her.
The malicious looks were too much for Ji Yunyi to bear. He wanted to take action.
"Second Brother."
By this time, Ji Yunxi had finally woken up from her drowsiness. She stopped him. "Don't bother with them."
Ji Yunyi retorted angrily, rubbing his hands. "Why should we tolerate them? We're not afraid of them!"
Du Tianchen walked in from outside. He understood what Ji Yunxi meant.
If they took action now, they would be in the wrong even if they were right. So he walked leisurely to Ji Yunyi's side. "Is it because we can fight? It's Miss Ji and Young Master Feng who can fight. Don't flatter yourself."
"What are you talking about? I'm her older brother. I'm not bad either, okay?"
Du Tianchen looked at him in disbelief. "If you hadn't said so, I would have thought you were the younger brother."
"You guy!" Ji Yunyi's attention was diverted, and he immediately forgot about his intention to beat someone.
Li Jiuge shook her head helplessly. These guys were all older than them, but they were so childish.
"Stop arguing. Master Ning Shuihan is coming!"
She caught a glimpse of a graceful figure approaching. She immediately patted the two of them to interrupt their bickering.
The person coming was dressed in white. She had an oval face and looked as cold as ice. She didn't seem easy to get along with.
Ning Shuihan was in charge of teaching the mental - method course. As soon as she appeared, even those who were dissatisfied with Ji Yunxi immediately fell silent.
However, before she spoke, she gave Ji Yunxi a meaningful look.
Ji Yunxi felt a chill down her spine under her gaze. She thought she didn't know Ning Shuihan. The reason she looked at her like this was probably related to the disciple - entry assessment.
She looked up and gave her a faint smile. Ning Shuihan found it amusing in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she still looked cold.
The class began. Ji Yunxi found that Ji Yunyi was surprisingly serious. One couldn't tell from him that he had once annoyed more than a dozen tutors when he was a child.
"Second Brother, why are you so serious?"
During the break, Ji Yunxi quickly poked her second brother's shoulder. "Why weren't you obedient when you were a child? I remember that Father specially asked the Emperor to let Grand Tutor Zhong teach you, but you annoyed him away within two days."
Li Jiuge also turned around. "I know about this too. The Crown Prince said that if Grand Tutor Zhong hadn't left, he might have died prematurely from anger because of you."
Ji Yunyi was extremely embarrassed. "Why are you bringing up old things? I was just a kid then. Don't I understand now?"
"I don't believe it." Ji Yunxi immediately retorted. "I know exactly what kind of person you are. Tell me quickly!"
Ji Yunxi secretly glanced at Ning Shuihan sitting on the platform. Then he whispered to the two of them, "Because... my master is too fierce. If I don't study hard, I'll get beaten!"
Ji Yunxi and Li Jiuge wanted to laugh, but they were afraid of being seen by Ning Shuihan. They could only sit in their seats with red faces, trying hard to hold back their laughter.
Finally, the morning class was over. Ning Shuihan said, "Ten days later, you'll have another assessment. The way of the assessment is still under discussion, so I'm informing you in advance. Please focus on your cultivation."
Immediately, someone below started whispering. "Didn't the entry assessment just end? Why do we have another one?"
"Who knows!"
Ning Shuihan gave them a cold look. "Because there were some problems with the entry assessment, so there will be another one."
"Could it be related to that Ji Yunxi and Feng Xingzhi?"
Before they could talk for long, they heard Ning Shuihan sneer. "I'd also like to warn some of you. This is Kunlun Mountain. All of you should not only cultivate your martial arts but also your moral character. If you want to touch the secrets of heaven, the first thing you should do is to cultivate yourselves."
"Instead of constantly focusing on others' flaws and forgetting what kind of person you are!"
