Chapter 150 – Direct Confrontation! (1/2)

150 – Direct confrontation!

Enrolled personally by dean of the school?

Li Muyang was flabbergasted.

He always thought that the reason he was admitted into Starry Sky Academy was because of his good exam results– Starry Sky Academy had discerning eyes, so it allowed him into the school. Although he had not applied or even heard of this school before.

Now by eavesdropping on Xiahou Qianbai's conversation with someone, he came to realise that he was personally admitted by dean of the school–just what was the dean's intention?

Li Muyang was worried and uneasy.

Starry Sky Academy was situated on Nameless Mountain, and in front of Nameless Mountain was one of the top ten most dangerous places in the divine continent, Flower Language Plain, and behind it was raging-red Nujiang.

Nujiang is wide and vast, a limitless expanse of red water.

It is said that at the other side is a dangerous swamp that's shrouded by thick fog all year round to the extent it can't see the sun, surely very few people would be willing to go and explore a place like that.

A desolate location, an unknown school and a high and mighty dean who overlooks everything–how could he possibly know about a common youngster from the far away Jiangnan?

There must be a devil behind this strangeness!

Li Muyang knows that there's a monster hiding inside his body, so he was worried that someone else was also aware of the monster inside his body–

However, so far away, how could the dean know?

In this world, is there nothing dean does not know about?

Nervous and uneasy, Li Muyang stayed silent and concentrated hard, leaning closer to eavesdrop—He overheard the dialogue between Xiahou Qianbai and a stranger.

“Dean's thoughts, can we speculate? The scene that dean could see, could we also see? Dean is an extraordinary person, and he did obviously has his reasons.” The stranger said in a low voice. “Why don't you ask the dean?”

“If dean did not tell us, who would dare go ask him?” As Xiahou Qianbai spoke of him, his voice was full of deep respect and admiration. “Thinking that only Bookworm knew about this, it's so unfair. Why is it only him that dean values? Is he not just a bookworm who only knows how to read? Speaking of which, he was a student of Kong Li and me.”

The stranger ignored Xiahou Qianbai's 'jealousy', saying: “Now that dean has recruited him and knows of his presence, it demonstrates that there must be a reason –Carefully take care of the problematic situation right now. And you must not make raise the students' suspicion. Also, dean has to be satisfied. So–teacher Xiahou Qianbai, I appreciate your help.”

“I obviously need to deal with this matter.” Xiahou Qianbai said in a cold voice. “I also have some questions I want to ask.”

As the stranger's footsteps gradually stepped further away, Xiahou Qianbai returned into the stone house and stood in front of Li Muyang's bed.

“Li Muyang, who are you exactly?” After a moment of silence, Xiahou Qianbai asked aloud.

“——” Li Muyang's heart tightened in fear.

He questioned me like that? How does he know I'm awake?

Is he purposely testing me?

Yes, that must be it.

He did it on purpose, he does not even know I'm awake.

So, Li Muyang decided to continue pretending to be asleep.
