The night was as tranquil as still water.
Qin Wentian was quietly cultivating in his room. Strands of Astral Light cascaded down from the Heavens, illuminating the roof of Qin Wentian's room.
Leng Ning sat on a rattan chair in the middle of the courtyard. The two ends of the chair were dangling from a tree on both sides, gently swaying in the wind. When she was young, her mother would often tease her like this. Sadly, her mother had passed away, and her father had no status in the clan.
Thinking of this, Leng Ning lightly sighed, as a bitter smile appeared on her face. Lifting her head, she gazed in the direction of Qin Wentian's room. From such a close distance, she could feel that the Astral Light in his room was much denser.
"What a braggart. How interesting." Leng Ning couldn't help but laugh at the thought of Qin Wentian's shamelessness. This person's skin was so thick that she was speechless. She had said that they were in love, yet he still had the cheek to nod his head?
When the sun rose, Qin Wentian walked out of his room. Upon seeing Leng Ning sleeping on the rattan chair, he couldn't help but walk up and drape his cloak over her.
Leng Ning's eyelashes fluttered as she opened her eyes. Upon seeing Qin Wentian, she involuntarily smiled, "Good morning, Grandmaster Divine Inscriptionist."
"Eh …" Qin Wentian perspired, "Morning."
"The sun is about to rise, I'll go prepare some food. I'm not used to not eating in the morning." Leng Ning stood up from the rattan chair and went to prepare some snacks. Although it was fine for cultivators at the Yuanfu Realm to not eat or drink, humans still loved to use food as a supplement to their lives, to satisfy their cravings.
"Not bad." Qin Wentian smiled as he tasted the snacks.
"Thank you Grandmaster for your praise. Shouldn't we wake those two fellows up and head to the White Deer Institute?" Leng Ning mischievously asked.
"The two of them aren't interested in Divine Inscriptions, it doesn't matter if they don't go or not. Let's go first." Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. If Fan Le and Chu Mang were willing to cultivate here, it wouldn't be a waste of time.
"That's fine too." Leng Ning nodded her head and the two of them headed towards the White Deer Institute.
However, before he could enter the Academy, Qin Wentian was blocked by someone.
Today, Yan Kong was clad in a blue robe, and there were a few people following behind him, blocking the path of Qin Wentian and Leng Ning. Their countenances were filled with hostility.
"I heard that you stayed in her courtyard yesterday?" Yan Kong stared at Qin Wentian. His narrowed eyes seemed to gleam with the sharpness of a blade, causing people to feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Yan Kong, I don't need you to interfere in my matters." Leng Ning furrowed her brows as she berated.
"You will marry into my Yan family sooner or later. You better be careful." Yan Kong coldly stared at Leng Ning before turning to Qin Wentian. "It's fine if you like women, but there are some women you can't touch. If not, you won't even know how you died. Let me give you a piece of advice, get the hell out of the Leng Clan as soon as possible."
After speaking, Yan Kong turned and stepped into the White Deer Institute. The people beside him laughed as they watched Qin Wentian and Leng Ning, with hints of mockery in their eyes. After which, they followed after Yan Kong.
"I'm sorry, I've implicated you." Leng Ning apologized.
"I was the one who took the initiative to stay at your residence. What are you apologizing for?" Qin Wentian casually shrugged his shoulders. Fan Le had told him before that Yan Kong's cultivation base was at the third level of Yuanfu, and was a peak-tier second-ranked Divine Inscriptionist. He wouldn't pose any threat to Qin Wentian. Only the Yan Clan might be a little troublesome, but if Yan Kong really wanted to deal with him, Qin Wentian wouldn't mind teaching him a lesson.
"Why don't you move out today?" Leng Ning shook her head as she stared at Qin Wentian.
"It's fine, there's no need to bother with him." Qin Wentian didn't mind as he stepped into the White Deer Institute. Leng Ning shook her head as she stared at Qin Wentian's back view. This fellow was too stubborn. When Yan Kong was talking to him, why didn't he have any reaction at all? And now, he was acting so stubbornly in front of her.
Qin Wentian's studies in the White Deer Institute were very peaceful. The knowledge Bailu Yi had imparted to him had indeed opened a new door for him in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions.
In the past, he only knew that Divine Inscriptions could be used to forge weapons and cast Divine Energy. But now, he understood that the Dao of Divine Inscriptions was extremely broad and profound.
According to the teachings of the White Deer Institute, the Dao of Divine Inscriptions could be divided into four categories: Divine Inscriptions Forging, Divine Inscriptions Inscribing, Divine Inscriptions Combat, and Divine Inscriptions Puppet Refinement!
Forging weapons with Divine Inscriptions, as the name implied, was to forge divine weapons. Inscribing Formations with Divine Inscriptions was to inscribe formations. As for combat with Divine Inscriptions, it was something that Qin Wentian had comprehended in the past. It was just that his comprehension of Divine Inscriptions was very shallow. As for Puppet Refinement with Divine Inscriptions, it was to use the power of Divine Inscriptions to forge puppets.
Bailu Yi didn't explain the Dao of Puppets in detail, but Qin Wentian couldn't help but feel a faint sense of excitement in his heart.
He had once cultivated the Dao of Divine Inscriptions, using Divine Inscriptions to condense innate techniques that could be unleashed through the arterial pathways of the body. Similarly, using Divine Inscriptions to inscribe Divine Energy could also be unleashed through the arterial pathways of the body. Hence, he had always had a bold idea. Could it be that the structure of the human body, as well as the meridians of the human body, were themselves a type of unique Divine Inscriptions?
He could imagine that the human body was made up of countless divine runes. If that was the case, the Dao of Puppets would be completely understandable.
Other than lecturing on the basics of Divine Inscriptions, Bailu Yi would also personally teach the students how to research, inscribe, and destroy Divine Inscriptions. Unknowingly, a month's time was almost up. To someone like Fan Le, this was indeed a waste of time and Yuan Meteor Stones. But to Qin Wentian, this investment was truly worth it.
In front of the stone rampart of the Academy, Bailu Yi no longer continued her lecture. She glanced at the students before her. Her countenance was still as calm as ever, giving off a feeling of Cold. Yet that pure and innocent countenance of hers was extremely endearing.
"Okay, tomorrow will be the last day for you all to learn from me. Tomorrow, I will not be teaching you all in the Academy. Instead, I'm preparing to head to the Hell Arena in the Eastern City to personally spectate the battles between Divine Inscriptions," Bailu Yi stated, causing the pupils of many to narrow. Hell Arena.
"What kind of place is the Hell Arena?" Qin Wentian asked in a low voice to Leng Ning who was beside him.
Leng Ning's countenance turned solemn. When she thought of that terrifying place, she felt her scalp going numb. This cold beauty Bailu Yi was truly audacious, she actually wanted to head to the Hell Arena.
"The craziest place in the Moon Continent is both Heaven and Hell. It can also be called the largest gambling den. The people there gamble with their lives," Leng Ning stated in a low voice. Leng Ning spoke in a low voice, her words causing Qin Wentian to cast a few glances at Bailu Yi. This cold beauty was truly charismatic, as expected of a genius from the White Deer Institute.
"Also, after tomorrow, I intend to choose one of you to continue studying the Dao of Divine Inscriptions with me," Bailu Yi stated in a low voice. Momentarily, expressions of excitement appeared on the faces of many. Who would be so lucky to be able to study the Dao of Divine Inscriptions with Bailu Yi?
The gazes of many involuntarily turned to Yan Kong. If Bailu Yi had to choose one person, she would definitely choose the one with the strongest inscriptions. In that case, Yan Kong would undoubtedly be chosen.
However, Qin Wentian didn't think so. He saw Bailu Yi glancing at him, and although it was just a glance, Qin Wentian's heart was as clear as a mirror. It was impossible for Bailu Yi to not understand the Divine Inscriptions he had inscribed that day. Not only that, during the past month of study, he had also used various methods to hint at his Divine Inscriptions ability in front of Bailu Yi.
This way, it wouldn't be too abrupt, and would also allow Bailu Yi to remember him. And now, the opportunity had finally arrived.
"Leng Ning, I would like to invite Bailu Yi for a meal later. You guys can return first, "Qin Wentian whispered to Leng Ning, causing her to freeze. She glared at Qin Wentian," Bailu Yi rarely interacts with men. A few days ago, Yan Kong also invited her, but she rejected him. "
This fellow was still as arrogant as ever. He hadn't changed at all.
"I know." Qin Wentian nodded his head, as though he didn't care at all. Leng Ning was speechless, but she didn't say anything more. Let him hit the wall himself.
Yan Kong, who was in front, turned his head and glanced at Qin Wentian. This fellow really didn't listen to advice, he still hadn't moved out of the Leng Clan.
And now, he even wanted to invite Bailu Yi for a meal? What a joke.
"Alright, let's call it a day. Everyone, disperse," Bailu Yi stated.
"Teacher Bailu," Qin Wentian called out, seeing that Bailu Yi was about to depart.
Bailu Yi halted her steps upon seeing Qin Wentian. She had a deep impression of Qin Wentian since the first time he took the Divine Inscription examination. In the following month, he was extremely serious, and would ask questions whenever he didn't understand something. Some of his questions sounded like idiocy, but he didn't mind, even if he would be laughed at by others.
Bailu Yi felt that it was strange why Qin Wentian would ask such basic questions. This fellow would occasionally give her hints, but she could sense that Qin Wentian's attainments in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions weren't as simple as a second-ranked Divine Inscriptionist. This was also the reason why she wanted to recruit someone to continue learning under her.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Bailu Yi asked, looking at Qin Wentian.
"I would like to invite Teacher Bailu for a meal to discuss some questions regarding the Dao of Divine Inscriptions. I wonder if Teacher Bailu is free?" Qin Wentian smiled as he walked towards Bailu Yi.
"Shhhh …" The entire academy was filled with boos. Qin Wentian's words instantly caused a commotion. Was this fellow crazy? Was he dreaming? He actually wanted to invite their goddess to a meal?
What a fool. They were already waiting to see Qin Wentian make a fool of himself. Back then, even Yan Kong was mercilessly rejected by Qin Wentian.
Yan Kong stared at Qin Wentian, feeling a little ridiculous. Shifting his gaze to Leng Ning, he laughed in a low voice, "This friend of yours, is there a problem here?"
As Yan Kong spoke, he pointed to his head, causing the people around him to burst out laughing.
Leng Ning's countenance was unsightly, but since Qin Wentian wanted to do this, there was nothing she could do.
"Fine!" At this moment, a crisp sound rang out, causing the smile on Yan Kong's face to freeze. His finger was still pointing to his head, yet he couldn't move it no matter how hard he tried.
