Martial Cultivator

There were not too many hanging around the bank of South Lake at night, especially those tutors. Otherwise, if they saw Wei Xu personally driving the carriage, they would only think that the dean had gone somewhere that he should not go in the middle of the night yet again.

In the cabin, Xie Nandu was reading a book on daoist magic with the help of a large pearl. This daoist magic had already been mostly understood by her in merely a few days. The qi within her body became increasingly vigorous.

While Liu Ye was continuously sizing up that youth in black who had an unkempt appearance, she seriously could not imagine just how this guy in front of her was good in any way. To actually have her missus look at him with different eyes.

Chen Chao was a little tired in the first place and wanted to sleep. But, he kept feeling someone staring at him, so he opened his eyes rather reluctantly. Looking at the maidservant who was still considered delicate looking, he asked, "What? Never seen such a handsome guy like me before?"

The corners of Liu Ye\'s mouth twitched. Seeing that her missus did not speak, she plucked up her courage and said, "I don\'t think that you\'re handsome!"

Chen Chao had an indifferent look, he just raised his brows and said, "If you don\'t think that I\'m good-looking, then what are you looking at?"

How had Liu Ye seen such a person before? She was rendered speechless by a few words and could only snort coldly and sulk on her own.

Only then, did Xie Nandu shift her gaze away from the book. She looked at Chen Chao and asked, "Do you like to argue so much?"

Chen Chao nodded and said, "Of course. Some people can\'t be killed even if I want to kill them, so I can only piss them off. But luckily, that old hag at least vomited two taels worth of blood."

Xie Nandu thought about it and asked, "The matter has blown up so big, how do you think the big shots will handle it?"

Chen Chao adjusted his sitting posture to make himself more comfortable. Then, he said, "It can\'t be to send troops and completely destroy the three southern sects, right?"

Xie Nandu frowned and said, "Be more serious."

Chen Chao chuckled, "Just cracking a joke."

Whether the imperial court would trivialize things the same as always, or would they act uncharacteristically, this was actually not something that Chen Chao needed to worry about.

This sort of major thing would naturally have big shots to worry about.

Xie Nandu was originally acting on a whim too. Since he did not answer her, she stopped asking as well and changed the topic, "Logically speaking, you\'re currently still Tianqing County\'s warden. Even if you\'re in the Divine Capital, you should be staying in the government accommodations too. Why did you come to the academy?"

"Didn\'t you take the initiative to invite me?"

Chen Chao had a stunned look. He was talking about what happened in the Ministry of Penalty before.

Xie Nandu was silent. Although she took the initiative to say it, that was helping him out of his predicament in the first place.

"Weren\'t you stopped by someone when you came?" "It truly shocks me that this sort of thing actually happens in the Divine Capital. You\'re merely an Initial Realm cultivator, it\'s too dangerous. You saved my life too, would I still be human if I sit by idly and remain indifferent?"

Chen Chao had a sincere look. No matter how anyone looked, they could not identify any problems.

It was just that Liu Ye only had a face full of contempt.

Xie Nandu frowned and said, "I\'m in the academy, what danger can there be?"

She was the dean\'s final disciple. If such a thing happened in the academy, the dean would probably lose all face.

"Alright, I came in to avoid the limelight. Also, since I came to the Divine Capital, how can I not take a look at the academy?"

The commotion that Chen Chao caused was too major. At present, the entire Divine Capital knew that a teenager like him existed. His current situation was also not too good. There had always been many spies in the Divine Capital.

Other than avoiding double agents, he came to the academy to avoid trouble too.

If one wanted to avoid trouble, apart from the palace, where in the Divine Capital could be more suitable than the academy? Moreover, he even had a friend in the academy.

Xie Nandu was absorbed in thought and said, "Aren\'t you afraid that I\'ll have the idea to recruit you too?"

Chen Chao smiled and asked, "Didn\'t you try before in Tianqing County?"

Xie Nandu did not answer.

Chen Chao said to himself, "Even if it\'s for nothing else, my saber is still in your hands, right? Isn\'t it reasonable for me to come and get my saber? Speaking of which, I haven\'t seen it for a long time, I really kind of miss it."

Liu Ye interrupted, "Then leave immediately after you take the saber. How can a boy stay in my missus\' courtyard?"

Liu Ye who had not spoken all along suddenly spoke. It seemed like she really disliked the young man in front of her.

Chen Chao raised his brows and said, "Your missus didn\'t even say no, is it your turn to speak?"

Liu Ye was stumped again and her expression became a little ugly. She was just about to speak when she saw her missus shake her head and say in a soft voice, "Forget it, how can your mouth be his match?"

Liu Ye felt a little aggrieved and acknowledged in a soft voice.

Xie Nandu gave Liu Ye a consoling look and turned to say, "There\'s something that I want to ask you."

Chen Chao faintly felt that something was not good. He frowned, but he still said, "Ask away."

"Do you like me?"

This sentence was too abrupt and also too direct. There were people in the cabin at this moment and there were also people outside the cabin. Liu Ye was directly stunned. She stared at her missus with wide eyes. Then, she looked at Chen Chao reluctantly.

The emotions were the same.

Chen Chao was stunned too, opening his mouth, but was unable to say anything. He said embarrassedly, "Why do you ask?"

Xie Nandu said calmly, "Commander Song who previously helped you deliver the letter told me that you said that there\'s a girl who likes you in the Divine Capital. Do you know other girls in the Divine Capital?"

"Not that there are other girls..." Chen Chao felt a little guilty. When he said this on that day, there was some plotting. Except, how could he have imagined that the primary subject learned about this so quickly? Furthermore, she even asked so straightforwardly.

Xie Nandu said, "When did I ever say I liked you?"

Chen Chao\'s face turned red. Shaking his head, he said, "You naturally never said that. I was just..."

He felt a little overwhelmed. His scalp seemed to be tingling a little and even his heart was beating faster.

"Pretty good eyes."

Xie Nandu smiled slightly.

Hearing this, Chen Chao was stunned.

He never thought that the young girl in front of him would speak so straightforwardly. He also did not expect that she would be so casual about it.

Xie Nandu said to herself, "If you like me, it means that you have a good eye."

Chen Chao did not speak and was relatively silent for the first time.

Xie Nandu did not say anymore. It was just that her face turned slightly red as if there were two peach blossoms that had settled on her face.

Chen Chao looked at her and unconsciously smiled.

This might be the most beautiful painting in the world.

The coachman driving the carriage was not only skilled in driving, but his hearing was also pretty good too. Hearing the conversation between the young man and the young girl in the cabin, he smiled too.

Before long, a horse carriage slowly stopped in front of a small courtyard.

Wei Xu jumped off the horse carriage and said warmly, "Little Junior Sister, we\'re here."
