Jun Wu Xie, Fan Zhuo and Ye Sha remained in Chan Lin Town for the time being. The journey had been bumpy and bumpy, but to Lord Meh Meh, it had been a form of torture. If they continued on their way back to the Zephyr Academy, Jun Wu Xie could not be certain that Lord Meh Meh would be able to recover fully.
"I went to the medicine shop to get the herbs you wanted. I'll leave them here for now." Fan Zhuo placed a large bag of herbs upon the table in Jun Xie's room. Besides the rare and valuable herbs they had bought from the Chan Lin Auction House, Jun Xie had also requested for some common herbs.
Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly. She was preparing a medicinal bath for Lord Meh Meh. As Lord Meh Meh had suffered burns all over its body, ordinary ointments would not have much of an effect on it. Hence, Jun Wu Xie had bought a small wooden tub and mixed various herbs together to create a thick medicinal concoction for Lord Meh Meh to soak in.
"Will it recover?" Fan Zhuo asked worriedly as he watched Jun Xie place the weakened Lord Meh Meh into the medicinal bath.
"Yes." Jun Wu Xie replied without hesitation.
Fan Zhuo did not want to disturb Jun Xie any further. Just as he was about to leave, Ye Sha pushed the door open and came in. When he saw Fan Zhuo, his eyes flashed with a strange glint.
"I'll go ask the innkeeper to prepare some food and send it over later." Fan Zhuo said smilingly as he looked at Ye Sha, and left after saying that.
Ye Sha's brows creased up slightly, seemingly deep in thought. He stood frozen at the door for a moment before he went into the room and closed the door behind him.
"Young Miss." Ye Sha knelt down on one knee.
"Mm." Jun Wu Xie replied softly as she stared intently at Lord Meh Meh's condition.
"Young Miss had asked me to investigate the situation in the Zephyr Academy over this period and your subordinate has come to understand it." Ye Sha replied, his head lowered.
The time they returned, coincidentally coincided with the Zephyr Academy's break day. The entire Chan Lin Town was now filled with youths dressed in the Zephyr Academy's uniform. Although Jun Xie was unable to go back to the Zephyr Academy for the time being, she had sent Ye Sha into the town to find out the latest news about the Zephyr Academy.
"What happened?" Jun Wu Xie noticed the unusual tone in Ye Sha's voice.
Ye Sha was silent a moment before he said: "The Headmaster of the Zephyr Academy, Fan Qi, died two weeks ago."
The movements of Jun Wu Xie's hands froze and she suddenly raised her head, her cold eyes tinged with surprise as she looked at Ye Sha.
"Fan Qi is dead?"
Ye Sha nodded.
"Who did it?" Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes. She had not met Fan Qi that many times and they could not be considered to be friends. But Fan Qi was Fan Jin's father and Fan Zhuo's adoptive father. He had saved Fan Zhuo's life and brought him up.
If not for Fan Qi, Fan Zhuo would have died a long time ago.
Jun Wu Xie did not have a deep impression of Fan Qi. She only knew that Fan Qi and Fan Jin shared the same temperament. He was honest and humble, and while he was not considered a hero, he was a real man, and a good headmaster.
But …
How did he die?
"Regarding this matter, the disciples of the Zephyr Academy do not know about it. They only know that the Headmaster is dead." Ye Sha told them everything that had happened.
"It's Ning Rui." Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes.
Ye Sha then said: "Ning Rui's power is slightly inferior to Fan Qi's by a notch. Just based on power alone, he does not possess the ability to kill Fan Qi."
Jun Wu Xie frowned and said: "There is a premise to your judgement."
"Please enlighten me, Eldest Miss."
Jun Wu Xie lowered her eyes and said in a cold voice: "Only when Fan Qi has his guard up against Ning Rui will your judgement be valid."
