573 Murder of a Fellow Disciple 1 (1/2)
The Zephyr Academy's holiday went by in a flash. Jun Wu Xie and her companions were moving out to make their return trip to the academy.
The bustle in Chan Lin Town quietened down tremendously after the disciples of the Zephyr Academy all left, and the streets suddenly became bare and tranquil. But at the same time next month, all the hustle and bustle would return once again.
Qiao Chu and the others had reached the branch division first and Jun Wu Xie was just stepping into the Zephyr Academy's main branch with Fan Zhuo.
And when Jun Wu Xie took her first step into the Zephyr Academy, she was met with many stares filled with disdain and hatred directed at her.
Quite a number of disciples had remained back at the Academy over the holidays and they were seemingly giving out different vibes as compared to those who had gone to Chan Lin Town. Upon seeing Jun Wu Xie, these people had moved on from ignoring and disregarding her previously to staring at her with utter contempt and undisguised hatred now.
The unfriendly stares were so obvious that even the always calm and cool Jun Wu Xie felt the change in their eyes.
The air in the academy changed to become a little stifling with the return of Jun Wu Xie. Jun Wu Xie walked along with Fan Zhuo and all the other disciples they passed shot them with endless glares filled with thick enmity and disdain.
What had happened?
Jun Wu Xie felt that something must have happened in the few days that she had been away, or why had the glares from all the disciples directed at her become so filled with venom?
Fan Zhuo could feel the strange atmosphere within the academy as well. He pulled Jun Wu Xie along as he sped up, hurriedly wanting to return back to the sanctity of the little bamboo grove.
The two of them had just put their first foot into the little yard when Fan Jin, who had quickly received the news of their return, rushed over in a hurry.
”Big brother, did something happen in the academy?” Fan Zhuo's face was looking puzzled and confused. He could not help but have noticed all those stares directed at Jun Wu Xie.
