After Zi Jin left, Gu Ying sat in his room, mulling over the veracity of the news over and over again.
No matter how one looked at it, it looked like a trap laid out by Jun Wu Xie.
Gu Ying rested his chin on one hand and sat at the table, his eyes narrowed.
He could still remember, back in the Zephyr Academy, Jun Xie's ploy had been so flawless. But today, the plan seemed to be filled with so many loopholes.
Trap?
But if it was a trap, why would Zi Jin not hesitate to self-destruct to tell him everything? And even exposed Jun Wu Xie's identity right before his eyes? If he were to use this as bait, wouldn't it be too risky?
Gu Ying was deep in thought for a long while before he stood up. He walked out of the room and walked towards Gu Xin Yan's residence.
Whether the plan would succeed or not depended entirely on Gu Xin Yan. He wanted to see how Jun Xie would be able to execute this plan that was riddled with loopholes. If it was a trap ….. With Jun Xie throwing out the bait, he would not allow Jun Xie to escape so easily.
That debt in the Zephyr Academy, he would slowly settle it with her!
The place where Gu Xin Yan stayed, was where the young ladies from the various palaces stayed. With Gu Ying's handsome countenance, his appearance there had naturally attracted quite a number of young ladies to stop in their tracks.
Although they did not belong to the same palace, that did not stop the hearts of the young girls from secretly yearning for him. When they had just come into the Pure Grace Palace, quite a number of them had already noticed the Young Lord of the Blood Fiend Palace. Becoming a disciple of the various palaces was naturally a good thing but if they were able to latch onto the Young Lord of the Blood Fiend Palace, that would be a good thing that would allow them to fly up the branches and transform into a phoenix. No one was willing to give up on such an opportunity.
Gu Ying walked past the crowd of admiring gazes directed at him, to come before Gu Xin Yan's room door. He raised a hand and knocked on the door.
The room was silent. Gu Ying waited for a long while but no one opened the door, so he knocked on the door again.
The only response he got was silence.
"You ….. You are here to look for Gu Xin Yan?" A young girl who lived next door to Gu Xin Yan asked as she blinked her eyes at Gu Ying.
Gu Ying nodded slightly.
The girl raised her hand and pointed outside.
"Not long ago, I saw Gu Xin Yan going out together with the Dragon Slayers Palace's Zhuge Yin."
"…" Gu Ying's eyes widened slightly.
Gu Xin Yan and Zhuge Yin went out?
How was this possible?
If it had been any other time, Gu Ying might not have felt that there was anything wrong with that. But the timing was just too much of a coincidence. Zi Jin had just told him about Jun Wu's plan not too long ago, and when he came to look for Gu Xin Yan …..
Gu Xin Yan actually went out with Zhuge Yin!
The place that Gu Ying had judged to be the biggest loophole had actually happened just like that!
For a moment, Gu Ying's mind shook slightly.
Did Zhuge Yin really call Gu Xin Yan out? How did he do it? Could it be … that Jun Wu Xie really had such a drug in her hands? Not only could it make people lose their minds, it could also make them obey orders?
The disbelief in his heart began to melt bit by bit at that moment. Gu Ying's brows creased up slightly as he turned his head to walk outside.
Within the garden, Gu Ying attempted to search for the figures of Gu Xin Yan and Zhuge Yin. Afterall, this was not the first time Zhuge Yin had come to seek out Gu Xin Yan, but every single time before this, he had cleverly fended him off.
Was it a coincidence, or was it a trap?
Gu Ying's eyes narrowed slightly.
After searching for a long while in the garden, Gu Ying was still unable to find any sign of Gu Xin Yan. An ominous premonition silently rose up in his heart.
