29 Chapter 29: You Must Be Sick! (2/2)
Yet, you dare to say... I am sick?
Even asking me to squat at a corner to draw circles?
I am a lady, alright? Draw circles, draw your mum's fat head!
Shen Bi Ru feels a heavy and stuffy sensation on her chest that she is unable to relieve.
Hualala! Hualalala!
Her face flushes red from anger. Just as she is about to reprimand the other party, she realizes that the young man has gone back to flipping through the books after being done with his words, not even sparing her an additional glance.
”Fine, fine! Continue putting on an act! See how I will reveal your true colors!”
Luoluo, Shen Bi Ru grits her teeth tightly and stomps her leg.
This is the first time that a man has talked to her in such a manner!
Fine, aren't you putting on an act of browsing through the books now? Let's see how long you can put up with it. When you are finally unable to continue on, I will expose you and leave you embarrassed!
Then, Shen Bi Ru no longer bothers herself with Zhang Xuan and instead, angrily walks back to the manual she had looked for previously and casually takes it out. Then, sitting in a corner in the room, she starts copying it down.
Initially, her mood was quite good today and she intended to study for quite awhile to boost her knowledge. Yet, never in her dreams would she expect to meet such an infuriating fellow.
In the midst of copying down her notes, she sneaks glances periodically towards him.
The young man still continues flipping through all of the books with the same speed, seemingly adamant to leave no book unturned. It seems that as long as it is a book of the Compendium Pavilion, he would surely flip through it once.
”Hmph! Let's see how long you can keep up the act for!”
After being rebuked by Zhang Xuan, Shen Bi Ru no longer retains her calmness from before and she intends to make things difficult for him. As she copies down her notes slowly, she waits for the moment when the other party is unable to keep up with the act.
However, what that leaves her bewildered is that the young man repeats his actions over and over again with the same astonishing speed. From the very first bookshelf, he moves from one row to another, flipping through the books, from afternoon to night, not even sparing a single minute to rest!
It has already been six to seven hours but yet the fellow is still persisting on with the same motion. Even Shen Bi Ru finds it inconceivable at this point.
If his aim was to attract her attention, she has already clearly told him that she detests such actions, so he should have stopped then. So, how is it possible for him to continue flipping through like this? Not to mention, for such a long period of time?
”Could this fellow's brain be convulsing or something? Has his cultivation went berserk and he himself became insane?”
Suddenly, a thought pops up in her head.
She has heard that when one's cultivation goes berserk, one would start to do many abnormal actions. Could it be that flipping through books non-stop here be one of this kind of abnormal actions?
She is looking at the young man with a bizarre expression as she starts to think that the young man is abnormal when she notices that Zhang Xuan stopping in his actions after flipping through the books in the final row.
”So much knowledge!”
After a consecutive six to seven hours of hard work, he has finally imprinted all of the books in Hongtian Academy's Teacher Compendium Pavilion in the Library of Heaven's Path in his head.
Through the compilation of flaws and strengths from the Library of Heaven's Path towards each individual book, he gains a certain level of understanding towards the cultivation technique, battle technique, pills, equipment forging, formations and such.
”With Zhao Ya's Pure Yin Body, she should cultivate this manual. However, before that, I have to do some preparations...”
After imprinting the entire Compendium Pavilion, he finally understands how he should solve the problem with Zhao Ya's physical body. He couldn't resist heaving a breath of relief. He has even found out the loopholes and incomplete portions in the previous 3 dan of his cultivation. As long as he finds some time to re-cultivate through them, he can correct and perfect them.
”Gugugu!”
When he is finally finished, he feels an ache in his stomach. After working for such a long period of time, his hunger pangs has already long struck, just that he was oblivious to it then.
Shaking his head, he starts to walk towards the exit of the Compendium Pavilion. However, he had only taken a few steps when he sees Shen Bi Ru standing before him, looking at him with a cold gaze.
To think that this woman would still be here after he has flipped through the books for six to seven hours.
Can't be bothered with such a 'self-important' fellow, Zhang Xuan continues walking towards the exit of the Compendium Pavilion.
”Stop it right there!”
When he has just walked through the exit, he hears Elder Mo bellowing at him.
At this very instant, Elder Mo's face darkens to the point that it seems like the coalescence of numerous storm clouds, ready to explode at any moment.
He has tolerated this young man for very long!
At this moment, there is only a thought in his head. Troublemaker, troublemaker, and troublemaker!
”Elder Mo!”
Zhang Xuan looks at him with a puzzled expression.
”Hmph, Zhang Xuan laoshi!” Elder Mo's face is cold. With an intentionally harsher tone, he says, ”You came to the Compendium Pavilion not to study, but to intentionally cause trouble! From now on, the Compendium Pavilion no longer welcomes you. If you step in here once more, I will break your legs!”
”Causing trouble? Elder Mo, where did all these come from? I have been looking through the books seriously, how did I become a troublemaker?”
Although he had already duplicated an identical Compendium Pavilion in his head and no longer has to come here, he still feels displeased upon hearing those words.
Why is it that when other people are here, you think of them as studying, but when I am here, you think of me as a troublemaker?
What kind of logic is this?
Aren't you being too unreasonable!
