Chapter 29: Tough guy
Merry Christmas everybody. Here is your Christmas present.
Lu smiled and answered, “Sure thing. Don’t worry.. Alright, I’m going to go take the test now. Have some rest.”
“What time is it? Hold on, let me cook you some breakfast first.”said Auntie.
“No no no, it’s ok. Just get some more rest. They have free breakfast at the test center.”
“You sure?”
“Yup.”
Auntie’s too tired to insist. Therefore, she fell asleep again.
Lu went out and bought some breakfast for Auntie, and then head to the test center.
While on her way there, Lu started to feel the strong desire.
The desire to get in Tianyan Sect.
She gotta get in.
The test center is located right in the middle of the City of Yuyue, inside a shopping mall. The whole place is packed up with people, with only the cage in the middle left open. The cage is for cage fighting.
Surrounding the cage are rows and rows of bleachers.
The top floor of the bleachers has only one seat, which is hand-crafted out of white jade.
That seat right there must be reserved for someone really special.
Wait.
Isn’t that seat reserved for the Apostle? Like, the ACTUAL Apostle? Not a fake one like her?
So does that mean..there’s gonna be an actual apostle is coming here?
But.. If he does come, she lies about her being an apostle would be exposed, wouldn’t they?
Lu asked someone, “hey..Who’s that seat for? Is it reserved for the Apostle? Is he gonna here today?”
The person apparently didn’t recognize who she is as he answered, “You do realize that it’s the Apostle, right? You poor little thing. That seat is only there for decoration purposes. You won’t get to actually meet the Apostle.”
Great. As long as the real apostle doesn’t come.
The person said, “What are you standing here for? Are you taking the test? I don’t think so. Get out of the line.”
Lu didn’t mind how rude he was. She found Ye Hui at the other line looking for something, or someone. So she walked to him.
The person saw Lu walking up to Ye’s line and instantly felt roasted. That line is for the Kingdom of Qingyan. She dressed so poorly..How can she be from The Kingdom of Qingyan?
Never judge a person by the look…
“Ye Hui! What are you looking for?”
Her calling apparently caught him off guard. And if you look closely you would notice how his face instantly turned red as he discovered her presence.
“I was..I was actually.. I was not looking for you… I was just…Looking around.”
“Yeah, right. So you were looking for me. What for though?”
