Along with this crisp sound, the entire academy fell silent in an instant.
The owner of the voice was undoubtedly Bailu Yi. Not only did she not reject, she even accepted Qin Wentian's invitation without hesitation.
Yan Kong's finger was still pointing at his head, while Leng Ning had an extremely interesting expression on her face, as though she had been possessed.
But after a moment of shock, she smiled at Yan Kong, "Just because you can't do it, doesn't mean others can't. Yan Kong, don't overestimate yourself too much, you're just a joke."
Evidently, Leng Ning was referring to the matter of Yan Kong's invitation to Bailu Yi being rejected. At that time, Yan Kong didn't feel that it was too shameful, as everyone felt that it was only natural. After all, how could it be so easy to invite the cold and lofty Bailu Yi? But now that Qin Wentian had succeeded, it undoubtedly caused Yan Kong to be embarrassed.
Shifting his gaze over, Yan Kong stared at Bailu Yi and Qin Wentian as his countenance flickered with uncertainty. Maybe because today was the last day Bailu Yi would be teaching them, Bailu Yi decided to give him some face. If he asked for it today, he would definitely do it. After all, he was the strongest Inscriptionist here.
Thinking of this, Yan Kong flashed a smile that he thought was handsome as he spoke, "Teacher Bailu, I also have some questions regarding Divine Inscriptions that I wish to consult you on.
Bailu Yi was just about to leave with Qin Wentian when she heard Yan Kong's words. She couldn't help but to feel that it was ridiculous. What did this person treat her as? Was he trying to show off?
"I've already promised him," Bailu Yi politely rejected, not wanting to make things too difficult for Yan Kong.
"Then I can invite you for dinner." Yan Kong smiled warmly, causing many to turn their gazes over. Bailu Yi furrowed her brows, this person really didn't know when to stop.
"I'm not free." Bailu Yi coldly replied, before walking out of the academy, leaving behind a dumbfounded Yan Kong. His countenance alternated between shades of green and white as he noticed the gazes of the crowd on him.
"This is called asking for a beating." Leng Ning giggled. Looking at the sullen expression on Yan Kong's face, she couldn't help but feel delighted. She discovered that Qin Wentian was actually quite adorable.
Yan Kong stared at the back of Qin Wentian, his lips as sharp as a blade, flickering with killing intent. Since he didn't dare to do anything to Bailu Yi, he could only vent his anger on Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian couldn't be bothered with Yan Kong's thoughts. Together with Bailu Yi, they exited the White Deer Institute. Bailu Yi's beautiful eyes stared at him as she asked, "Where are we going?"
"I don't know the place. Why don't you take me there?" Qin Wentian awkwardly replied. Bailu Yi's beautiful eyes flickered as she stared at him, "Is this how you treat us?"
"I entered the White Deer Institute on the first day I arrived in the Moon Continent. Since then, I've been staying with the Leng Clan." Qin Wentian said, a little embarrassed.
"Alright then, come with me," Bailu Yi straightforwardly replied. Qin Wentian smiled as he followed after her. However, not long after, Qin Wentian began to 'cry'. Bailu Yi brought him to an inn named 'Immortal Aroma Lodge'. The environment of this inn was extremely elegant, especially so for the location Bailu Yi had chosen. Behind a folding screen, the two of them could be seen leaning against the railing, gazing down at the lake below. A gentle breeze blew past, and there were only the two of them in the room.
The wine and dishes on the table were rich and mellow, while the aroma of meat assailed the nostrils. The dishes were actually cooked using special ingredients mixed with the meat of precious demonic beasts. The price of this table was equivalent to the price Qin Wentian had to pay for a month's worth of Divine Inscriptions.
Bailu Yi couldn't help but smile when she saw Qin Wentian staring at her unblinkingly. Her smile was akin to the blooming of a snow lotus on an iceberg, exuding a wondrous feeling.
"The Immortal Aroma Lodge is the most famous inn in the Moon Continent, and we have many branches. The dishes here are all specially made and are extremely beneficial to Wu Xiu's health. It's just that the price is a little too high. Why? You asked me to bring you here, are you unwilling to part with the price?" Bailu Yi's countenance was pure and innocent, and her smile was extremely beautiful.
However, when Bailu Yi saw that Qin Wentian was still staring at her, she couldn't help but feel uneasy. This fellow, didn't he just tease her a little? Why must he be so petty?
"That smile of yours is worth it." Qin Wentian laughed, causing Bailu Yi to freeze. She glared at Qin Wentian before reverting back to her usual Cold self. She didn't expect that she would be teased by him instead.
"Let's call it even." Qin Wentian couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in his heart. Bailu Yi must have been hiding her true side in front of them. Bringing him here was just a prank.
"You've got guts." Bailu Yi knew that Qin Wentian was doing this on purpose. Speak, what's your level of attainment in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions? "
"Before I joined the White Deer Institute, I've always been a third-ranked Divine Inscriptionist." Qin Wentian didn't hide anything from Bailu Yi. Without sufficient strength, how would he be able to control the White Deer Institute?
"Then why did you purposely come here to learn?" Bailu Yi glared at Qin Wentian.
"But my understanding of Divine Inscriptions is extremely limited. For example, the forging of weapons, inscribing formations, combat techniques, as well as the creation of Puppets, I'm completely clueless about them. Before this, I could only inscribe third-ranked Divine Inscriptions to aid in the forging of third-ranked Divine Weapons," Qin Wentian explained.
"Do you have any samples of the Divine Inscriptions you inscribed?" Bailu Yi asked.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded his head as he caressed the interspatial ring on his finger. A moment later, a painting appeared in Qin Wentian's hands as he passed it over to Bailu Yi.
"An innate technique hidden within the Divine Inscriptions." Bailu Yi could discern the profundity of the painting with a single glance. She stared at Qin Wentian in astonishment. This fellow's level of attainment in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions was actually so high?
"Have you really never studied it before? You're just trying to figure it out yourself?" Bailu Yi was extremely curious about Qin Wentian.
"I have a forging-type Astral Soul, and was born with the aptitude for inscribing Divine Inscriptions. If Qin Wentian were to tell Leng Ning these words, she would definitely say that he was boasting. However, Bailu Yi didn't doubt his words. Her beautiful eyes couldn't help but shine with a brilliant light as she stared at Qin Wentian. Evidently, she had dropped her facade.
"Seems like you're a genius in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions. In that case, do you have any questions for me?" Bailu Yi asked.
"Didn't you say you wanted me to continue studying the Dao of Divine Inscriptions with you?" Qin Wentian laughed as he looked at Bailu Yi, causing her to stare at him. "You sure are narcissistic."
"If it's not me, could it be Yan Kong?" Qin Wentian shrugged as he continued, "Actually, even if you didn't do this, I would still think of a way to continue studying the Dao of Divine Inscriptions with you. After all, there are many things that I don't understand. Although I've benefited greatly from this one month, I still feel that I'm still lacking. Hence, the reason why I'm treating you to a meal is because I want to get closer to you."
Bailu Yi stared at Qin Wentian in astonishment. She only saw that Qin Wentian's eyes were clear and pure, and he had a simple smile on his face. It was very sincere, completely different from the gazes of many men when they looked at her. Not only that, he didn't hide his intentions at all, causing her to feel a sense of intrigue.
"You won't have improper thoughts about me, right?" Bailu Yi suddenly asked.
"Cough, cough!" Qin Wentian coughed, almost choking on his wine. That simple and innocent face of hers was indeed extremely lethal.
Qin Wentian didn't expect Bailu Yi to be so direct. He bitterly smiled, "Miss Bailu Yi, I already have a woman that I love."
"Is that so?" Bailu Yi was still skeptical. "Is she beautiful?"
"Yes, she's very beautiful." Qin Wentian nodded his head.
"How is she compared to me?" Bailu Yi smiled as she looked at Qin Wentian, causing Qin Wentian to see her in a new light.
"She should be more beautiful than you." Qin Wentian seriously nodded his head, causing Bailu Yi's beautiful eyes to freeze for a moment before she smiled, "In that case, I'd like to meet her in the future."
"Does that mean you believe me?" Qin Wentian also relaxed.
"For the time being, I'll believe you. However, if I discover that you're lying to me, you better be careful." Bailu Yi flashed a threatening expression, causing Qin Wentian to shiver involuntarily. According to Leng Ning, this Bailu Yi was extremely powerful, and was even proficient in the Dao of Puppets. Every time someone dared to disrespect her, they would be taught a terrible lesson.
After that, the two of them chatted about some topics related to Divine Inscriptions. Qin Wentian was extremely satisfied with this meeting. In the future, he would be able to study Divine Inscriptions together with Bailu Yi, which meant that he would have one foot in the White Deer Institute. His first step in taking over the White Deer Institute.
… …
After returning to the Leng Clan, Leng Ning kept staring at Qin Wentian, her beautiful eyes flickering.
"What are you looking at?" Qin Wentian perspired.
"What did you talk about with Bailu Yi?" Leng Ning asked curiously.
"Nothing much, I just wanted to get closer to her. After all, I'll be studying Divine Inscriptions together with her in the future." Qin Wentian replied, his words causing Leng Ning's lips to twitch, "You're saying that Bailu Yi will choose you to be with her?"
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded.
Leng Ning stretched out her hand, gently placing it on Qin Wentian's forehead. Over the past month, the two of them had grown closer, and treated each other as friends. Hence, Leng Ning was much more casual with her actions.
"What are you doing?" Qin Wentian's face was filled with black lines when he saw Leng Ning placing her hand on his forehead.
"I'm checking to see if your brain is damaged." Leng Ning retracted her hand, speechless. "But your luck is really good, to think that Bailu Yi would agree to eat with you. How strange."
After which, Leng Ning shook her head and returned to her room. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't understand what was going on.
However, the events of the second day caused Leng Ning to be taken aback. After Leng Ning and the rest gathered at the Academy, they proceeded towards the Hell Arena. Bailu Yi walked in front alone, and no one dared to approach her. Qin Wentian was the only one who was more daring, walking shoulder to shoulder with Bailu Yi. The two of them chatted happily, as though they were very relaxed.
Upon seeing this, Leng Ning was dumbfounded. Could it be that Bailu Yi, this pure and innocent teacher, had been duped by the boastful Qin Wentian?
Yan Kong narrowed his eyes, his gaze akin to that of a venomous snake, as he stared fixedly at Qin Wentian's back.
Only Fatty Fan Le's worship of Qin Wentian had reached a point where he could prostrate himself before him. Not only did he easily get closer to Leng Ning, he was even so close to the ice beauty Bailu Yi. How could he not be inferior to Qin Wentian? As he thought of this, Fatty Fan Le even narcissistically touched his own face.
At this moment, many in the crowd were thinking that Bailu Yi was only eighteen this year, in the prime of her youth. Could it be that she had fallen in love with Qin Wentian?
If that was the case, didn't that mean that the slot to cultivate together with her was …?
As they thought of this, many people cast sympathetic glances at Yan Kong. Yan Kong also had the same conjecture. His gaze grew colder and colder as he stared at Qin Wentian. Since this was the case, he could only say that Qin Wentian was courting death!
