Chapter 662 - I Miss You (2/2)

“I don’t care!” she said stubbornly. “I’ll teach him to mess with me even if Father grounds me.”

Tang Wulin gave a violent sneeze when he was about to start meditating.

He forced himself to get his mind off of Gu Yue these days and tried to stay focused on the tournament. He had to; it was his responsibility as the captain of their team.

Gu Yue was sitting expressionless in the room next door, thoughtful.

“Yes, my lord. I think most of the powerful soul masters of the Monster Academy will attend the finals of the tournament. I’ll search for more clues then.”

“Good. Keep me posted.”
