Chapter 165 (2/2)

It was said that Starry Sky Academy controlled all the talents of the nine nations; solely by this fact alone, it was already better than the other top schools.

Li Muyang suddenly remembered Cui Xiaoxin, who’s far away in Tiandu; if she was here——How good would it be.

Qiandu stared at Li Muyang lost in thought at the doorway, then suddenly said with a smile: “Muyang cla.s.smate, are you thinking whether or not to let me and Canghai in——Did we come at a bad time?”

It was only then that Li Muyang snapped out of his daze, hurriedly invited them into the house and said apologetically: “I’m sorry, seeing you two reminded me of a friend, so I suddenly got a little distracted.”

With both hands behind her back, Qiandu stepped into the house, her footsteps were light and graceful, and her eyes narrowed into half circles as she said with a smile: “She must be a very beautiful girl, right?”

“Yes.” Li Muyang bravely answered. Qiandu guessed correctly. Cui Xiaoxin is really very beautiful, although Qiandu’s a girl, he couldn’t lie about such things.

However, subconsciously he did not want to talk about Cui Xiaoxin to other people.

Because——he felt that it’s a little secret that’s buried deep in his heart.

“So, that friend must be very important to you?” Qiandu then asked. Women have peculiar reactions when they hear gossip.

Li Muyang gave a wry smile, saying: “Strictly speaking, she’s my first friend——female friend. So she’s very important.”

“Oh.” Qiandu exclaimed, her eyes blinking in excitement. “A very important beautiful girl, Muyang cla.s.smate must like her very much, right?”

Li Muyang’s face flushed bright red, mumbling: “Actually, I don’t——like her very much.”

“You like her normally?”

“Lets not talk about this topic.” Li Muyang turned somewhat embarra.s.sed and somewhat shy. “Why did you come?”

Qiandu’s lips curved into a soft smile and she no longer forced Li Muyang to answer her question, instead said with a smile: “A few days ago I heard that while you were attending Teacher Xiahou’s Taoism cla.s.s, you suddenly went into a violent state. And a fight broke out between you and teacher Xiahou—-”

“What?” Li Muyang looked shocked, asking anxiously: “Me and Teacher Xiahou broke into a fight?”

He has been staying in the medicine cottage these days and had no contact with the outside world. He was not at all informed of what happened after that day.

Qiandu gave Li Muyang a doubting stare as she asked: “You don’t know anything?”

“At that time——I was feeling very uncomfortable. My mind was filled with extremely violent thoughts and my entire body was not under my control. At that time, my mind was in a mess. When I woke up my mind was blank and I don’t even know what happened.”

“No wonder.” The suspicion in Qiandu’s eye had not completely dispersed, casting a meaningful glance back and forth Li Muyang’s face, she said: “This matter turned very big, only very few students in Starry Sky Academy dare to publicly make things difficult for teachers, and in such a rude way. After the incident, the whole school was talking about this, someone said you—were possessed by a demon.”

“Of course, no one agrees with that. How could a person with a demon in his body be accepted by Starry Sky Academy? Are the teachers of Starry Sky Academy blind or idiots? However, many people say you’re secretly practicing evil techniques, so when you heard the recitation of Taoist ‘Cleansing Mind Incantation’ you became irritable, restless and lost control of emotions so you started to attack teacher Xiahou—”

Li Muyang staggered to his feet, murmuring: “It’s finished. Finished. I—attacked Teacher Xiahou, this matter is getting out of hand—”

Lin Canghai smiled sweetly as he said in a ridiculing tone: “Brother Muyang, we all envy you. You have just entered the school but you have earned so much fame. We are way behind you.”

“Canghai——” Qiandu whispered harshly.

Lin Canghai gave a slight, brief bow to Li Muyang an as apology.

Li Muyang could already tell that Lin Canghai attaches great importance to what Qiandu says. And he follows Qiandu around all day long like he’s her little tail.

“It doesn’t matter.” Li Muyang’s face turned pale: “I had no idea that I did such a stupid thing. How can I go out and meet people? And then? How was the situation solved in the end?”

“Later teacher Xiahou stood up to explain for you. He said you’re stupid, you have not built your foundation and you’re delusional to think that you could become successful instantly. He says you borrowed a mysterious scroll from the Starry Sky Library and secretly practiced, and in the end was possessed by a demon, giving rise to what happened—He also said that if he did not use the ‘Cleansing Mind Incantation’ to help you eliminate the evil, dispel all distractions, then you would have became a trash who cannot talk or move anymore.”

“——” Li Muyang was inwardly thankful. Although the way he explained it was a bit mean but at least it satisfied the other students’ curiosity, so they are no longer suspicious about his physical condition.

Otherwise, no matter where he goes, groups of people would gather around him and point their fingers at him. Some people would even bet ten gold coins that demons are hiding inside his body while some people would bet twenty gold coins that he’s possessed by a demon——Can he still live at that time?

As the saying goes: a guilty conscience needs no accuser.

“Teacher Xiahou is right, if it wasn’t for his help, I’m afraid I won’t be standing here laughing and talking happily with you two—” Li Muyang tried to maintain calm and composed. “So, that’s why you came to see me?”

“No, we’re here to see if there are demons in your body.” Qiandu said in a cold voice, fixing Li Muyang with a piercing gaze.
