703 Prepping for Counter 2 (1/2)
The scent of fresh blood seemed to be blatantly telling Jun Wu Xie that in the time that Gu Ying had been gone while he went to the Spirit Healer faculty, he had once more stirred up a storm of blood in the Zephyr Academy.
”The things that Senior taught to me, even Gu Li Sheng wasn't entirely clear about it.” Gu Ying said with a laugh, looking straight at Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie did not say a single word, but just went on to demonstrate transforming spirit power once more.
Just like Li Zi Mu had been in the past, even with Gu Li Sheng's personal instruction in the art, if one did not possess the gift, they would not be able to pick up the skill even if they knew everything there was to know about the Spirit Healing Technique.
It was the same for Gu Ying. Jun Wu Xie had naturally not been too concerned about it.
It wasn't till dinnertime that Gu Ying finally took notice of Ah Jing's absence. But he just laughed it off, grumbled a little, and did not harp anymore on the matter.
But…..
With no Ah Jing, there was no one in the little bamboo grove that knew how to cook.
Gu Ying ”invited” Jun Wu Xie to go with him to go ”share a meal”. And when they got to the place, Jun Wu Xie's eyes turned chilly.
Gu Ying had brought Jun Wu Xie to come to the Headmaster's courtyard. It had previously been Fan Qi's residence, but everything there had now become Ning Rui's.
Seeing Ning Rui once again, Jun Wu Xie's face was completely expressionless, while Ning Rui still his graceful and scholarly self, affable and approachable. However, that was all just the pretense that Ning Rui put forth.
Ning Rui looked at Jun Wu Xie, his face smiling brightly, but in his heart, he could not bring himself to feel any joy. Jun Wu Xie was friendly with the Fan brothers and Jun Wu Xie had also played a part in causing Ning Xin her death. But in order to arouse the interest of Gu Ying and the others, Ning Rui had had no choice but to lure them with the fact that Jun Xie knew the Spirit Healing Technique, but he knew that would also mean he wouldn't be able to harm a hair on Jun Xie from then on.
