Li Muyang longed to be strong.
He longed for power more than anyone else.
He did not want to go back to the past, back to the days when he was bullied, insulted or completely ignored, like he was an invisible person. He did not want to go back to the life when everyone looked at him as if he was a 'pig'.
On the surface he pretended to not care about anything, but how could he not care at all in his heart? He was just a young man who wanted face and dignity, wanted attention, and wanted to see a young girl's shy cheeks and affectionate eyes.
He wanted to change his fate, he wanted to become — — a different person from before.
Before he left Jiangnan city, this was what he thought.
He chose Starry Sky Academy in order to change his fate, chose such a journey.
However, when he unconsciously killed the junior official of the Monitoring Division — — at least that's what others told him.
As a result, his life entered a different state.
Along the way, he and fatty Gongshu Yuan experienced five hunts and seven arranged ambushes, and even when they reached the foot of Starry Sky Academy, they were still intercepted — —
At that time, he no longer lived for himself.
He seriously thought that he could die.
He knew he killed someone he shouldn't have provoked, he was willing to pay with his life. If there was really no better choice, it would be better.
However, his family should not be implicated.
He did not want his parents and relatives to be in danger because of his actions. Thinking that they might retaliate against his parents and sister Li Shinian, Li Muyang was burning with anxiety, wishing he could borrow a crane from senior Wuyou and fly back to Jiangnan.
However, he knew very well that even if he flew back to Jiangnan now, he did not have the power to protect his parents and relatives.
He wanted to stay at Starry Sky Academy, he wanted to solve the mystery of his body, he wanted to become a strong person of Starry Sky — —
He wanted his parents to live a long life, he wanted to see Li Shinian get married and have children, living a happy life.
Therefore, a person who is not afraid of death, does not mind using some small means to achieve his goal — — If there is any infamy or bad consequences, he will not escape and is willing to bear all the consequences.
Hearing Xiahou Qianbai say he would help him build his foundation, Li Muyang was overjoyed.
He abruptly sat up on the bed and excitedly asked, "Teacher Xiahou, is what you said true?"
"A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand taels of gold. When have I, Xiahou Qianbai, ever gone back on my word?" Xiahou Qianbai said arrogantly.
"Yes, yes, yes. I said the wrong thing. I was too emotional and couldn't believe what I heard." Li Muyang apologized repeatedly and said with a smile.
Xiahou Qianbai glanced at Li Muyang and said: "Your physique is too weak right now, your Qi is unstable, you can't build your foundation. First stay in my medicine hut for a few days, I'll prescribe a few decoctions for you to nourish your body — — When your body recovers, I'll help you build your foundation, I hope you can succeed this time. "
"Thank you, Teacher Xiahou." Li Muyang got off the bed, tidied his clothes and bowed deeply to Xiahou Qianbai.
Xiahou Qianbai flung his robe and said arrogantly: "No need. This is to return Ziyang Shishu's favour — — "

For very few people, Tiandu is very, very small, so small that it can't even contain one's ambition.
For many people, Tiandu is very, very big, so big that they can lose their everything.
Tiandu Imperial View High School. When school ended, the students did not immediately return home. Instead, they waited at the school gate in groups of three or four, as if waiting for something.
"That girl is really beautiful, she talks like a cuckoo bird, I was intoxicated just by hearing her voice — —" A boy in a grey uniform said excitedly.
"Yes, yes, I also saw her. She went to the school's Willow Moon Lake for a walk, she's even more beautiful than Willow Moon — —" A companion next to him echoed.
"This girl should only exist in the heavens, how many times do we see her in the human world? The previous four sights of the school are not even worth mentioning compared to her — — "
----
It was just the sound of discussion in a gathering point.
Listening to the content of their conversation, it seems like there's a new beautiful girl in the school. This girl has captivated all the boys in the school, making these students refuse to leave the school even after school.
Other groups, large and small, were probably discussing the same thing.
"She's here, she's here." Among the crowd, a student suppressed his joy and shouted.
Then, the crowd at the school gate separated.
A sweet girl dressed in a dark green gauze skirt, with her hair combed into a bun, walked out from the crowd with a smile on her face.
The girl's hair was divided into two parts, tied into a bun on the top of her head, without any support, let it hang down naturally, and tied into a bun, hanging over her shoulders. This is also known as swallowtail, a common hairstyle used by unmarried women in the West Wind Kingdom.
Her smile was sweet, and the corners of her mouth curved into a lazy smile. Her eyes shone brightly, and everyone who looked into her eyes could feel the joy in her heart. Then, they inexplicably felt better as well.
"Knowing someone by reputation is not as good as meeting them in person — —"
"Sure enough, a feast for the eyes, the saints did not deceive me — —"
"Li Shinian, her name is Li Shinian — — Shinian, Shinian, isn't this name made for us? Seeing this girl, who wouldn't miss her? "
----
"Sister Shinian, a lot of boys are peeking at you." Xiao Huan, who was next to Li Shinian, teased her with a smile.
"Exactly. I've never seen them gather at the school gate like this before — — "
"Sister Shinian, you've just arrived, but you've already stolen the limelight of the three beauties of the school, Gu Yuxin, Liao Ziyu and Zhang Xian, Xiaoxin and the others will find trouble with you — —"
Li Shinian has this kind of ability, no matter if it's a boy or a girl, she can easily get along well with people.
When she was far away in Jiangnan, she was a famous big sister at school.
Now in Tiandu, she's only been here for less than a week, but she already has a group of best friends around her.
Li Shinian smiled indifferently and said: "Soon they'll get tired of it, don't worry about it."
"Sister Shinian, you seem very experienced." Xiao Huan looked at Li Shinian and said with a face full of admiration.
"This is nothing, before — — my brother was much better than me." Li Shinian said with a smile.
With a face full of curiosity, Xiao Huan said: "Sister Shinian, I've often heard you talk about your brother. Your brother is really as handsome and elegant as you say, he's better than Song Yu — — -is he really that amazing? "
"Of course." Li Shinian said with a face full of certainty. "My brother is not only good-looking, but he was also first in the imperial exam this year. He's well-versed in both literature and martial arts, he's the dream lover of countless girls in our school. You can't imagine how many love letters and gifts I've received for him when he was studying at school — -it's so annoying. "
"I really want to see your brother."
"Exactly. I hope I have the opportunity to see Shinian's brother — -he's called Li Muyang, right? I've often heard people talking about him before. "
"Will your brother come to Tiandu to see you? If he comes, you must let us see him — — "
----
Several girls were giggling as they walked outside, when a group of tall boys wearing grey robes suddenly blocked their way.
"Li Shinian?" A boy with a sugarcane straw dangling from the corner of his mouth looked at Li Shinian with a grin, his eyes playfully calling out her name.
