Ye Futian and the other two walked toward the courtyard. His brows were still furrowed.
"Qingxuan, who is he?" Ye Futian asked Yi Qingxuan.
"Mu Yunxuan, a disciple of the School of the Emperor Star. He's extremely talented and should be in the Eight-star Glory Plane now. He specializes in the Spirit Elemental Sorcery," Yi Qingxuan said. She found it strange that Mu Yunxuan would say those things to Ye Futian.
"Mu Yunxuan," Ye Futian repeated quietly, memorizing the name.
Yu Sheng saw Ye Futian's frown and glanced at Yi Qingxuan. Then he said to Ye Futian, "Sister-in-law isn't that kind of person."
"Of course I know Fox isn't that kind of person." Ye Futian nodded. "But don't you think this Mu Yunxuan is a bit strange? Why did he tell me this on purpose?"
"Indeed." Yu Sheng nodded.
"Seems like he's testing me. What does he know?" Ye Futian muttered to himself.
"Sister-in-law, Fox?" Yi Qingxuan's eyes flashed. She was confused. They seemed to be talking about Hua Jieyu.
"Qingxuan, this is a secret. Don't tell anyone," Yu Sheng said to Yi Qingxuan. Yu Sheng told Yi Qingxuan. After spending so much time together, Yu Sheng had clearly regarded Yi Qingxuan as one of his own. That was why he was telling her all this.
"Hua Jieyu is my girlfriend," Ye Futian said to Yi Qingxuan. Yi Qingxuan blinked her beautiful eyes and asked suspiciously, "Are you serious?"
"You don't trust me?" Ye Futian was a bit depressed seeing Yi Qingxuan's expression. "Someone as outstanding as me should be matched with the top beauty of Donghai Academy."
Yi Qingxuan looked at Ye Futian and was silent for a moment. Then she asked Yu Sheng, "Is he always this narcissistic?"
"Yes." Yu Sheng nodded seriously.
"It's over." Ye Futian heard their conversation and said, "The husband follows the wife. He doesn't want his brother anymore."
Yi Qingxuan and Yu Sheng were dumbfounded.
No matter if it's a test or not, I'll remember Mu Yunxuan. Ye Futian thought of Mu Yunxuan's words and smiled brightly. Seeing his smile, Yu Sheng knew that Ye Futian was in trouble.
As soon as the three returned to the courtyard, Yi Xiang followed. His eyes fell on Ye Futian. "Come with me," he said.
Ye Futian was stunned. He nodded and followed Yi Xiang to the tree.
"You went to the Luo Palace to cause trouble?" asked Yi Xiang.
"That was before I went to the School of the Finance Star. After I came back, I met Qingxuan," Ye Futian said. "And I didn't go there to cause trouble."
"You want to ask Lord Luo to cure your master?" Yi Xiang asked. Ye Futian nodded.
"Reckless! Do you know what you've done?" Yi Xiang said coldly, "Luckily, you are just an insignificant person. Those people couldn't do anything to you because of their pride. Otherwise, do you think anyone can protect you? The people from the School of the Emperor Star? Do you know the relationship between the Emperor Star School, the Art Saint, and Lord Luo? "
Ye Futian was stunned. He looked at Yi Xiang in confusion and said, "I only found out that the Art Saint used to cultivate in the School of the Emperor Star after meeting you."
"No wonder he's Hua Fengliu's disciple. He's so full of himself." Yi Xiang seemed very unhappy. "Do you know why your master's life spirit was destroyed and he was expelled from the City of Donghai?"
"I only know that he lost to the Art Saint. The Art Saint and the Nandou clan didn't allow him to stay," Ye Futian said.
"So what if he beat the Art Saint? He can stay? From the moment he started pursuing the Nandou clan's daughter, his fate was set, "Yi Xiang said. "Back then, both the School of the Emperor Star and the Nandou clan agreed that the Nandou clan's daughter and the Art Saint were a match made in heaven. This was a marriage that everyone was happy to see happen, but your master interfered. He was so full of himself. Who does he think he is? That he's good-looking? "
As he spoke, he looked at Ye Futian's face. Ye Futian was a bit annoyed. It's fine if you resent my master, but why are you looking at me like that? Is it wrong to be good-looking?
"What's worse, he did what was done. He's lucky he didn't die in the City of Donghai." Yi Xiang seemed to resent this deeply. Ye Futian didn't know what it had to do with him. Was it because of Auntie Tang?
"What's the relationship between the Art Saint and the School of the Emperor Star?" Ye Futian asked.
"There's something that very few people know. I can only see some clues. The Art Saint might be related to Minister Hua," Yi Xiang said. "Minister Hua's title is different from the one in my name. He's the Right Minister of the Nandou Nation and controls the military. Now, he's powerful enough to compete with the Left Minister. Minister Hua left the School of the Emperor Star many years ago. Now, he can be considered the school's backer."
"So, my masteress and the Art Saint are the marriage between the Nandou clan and Minister Hua?" Coldness flashed in Ye Futian's eyes.
"I'm afraid Hua Fengliu has been hiding this whole time. He doesn't know what role the School of the Emperor Star played. Do you still feel that your master was wronged?" Yi Xiang said, "You sure are impressive. You went to the Luo Palace. Did you know that all the important people were there together?"
Ye Futian's mind worked quickly. In a short time, he thought of many things. He said, "Then why did Hua Jieyu come to the School of the Emperor Star to cultivate?"
"Minister Hua is in power now. The Nandou clan naturally wants to repair their relationship with the School of the Emperor Star. It's not strange to send Hua Jieyu here. As for why she came, other than the Nandou clan's intentions, it's probably because of your grandmaster. She's cultivating with your grandmaster now. She's a respectable senior. What a pity …" Yi Xiang sighed.
"My grandmaster?" Ye Futian's expression changed.
"With Hua Jieyu's looks, you've known her for a long time and you're so good at talking. You must be close, right?" Yi Xiang said calmly. His eyes seemed to see through Ye Futian. Ye Futian was speechless. How could he guess that?
"I see that the path you're walking is similar to your master's. Let me remind you. It's fine in the school, but be careful outside. Otherwise, it'll be another Hua Fengliu. It's fine if something happens to you, but don't harm my good disciple." With that, Yi Xiang left. Ye Futian was stunned. He looked at Yi Xiang, speechless. He said so much because he was worried about Yu Sheng …
Turning back to look at Yu Sheng and Yi Qingxuan, Ye Futian felt a little hurt.
He didn't know that Yi Xiang's brows were tightly furrowed as if he had something on his mind. Today, the School of the Emperor Star and the Treasury Star had come. He felt that something was wrong. After Minister Hua took power, the Emperor Star school's desire for power had been growing. Donghai Academy wouldn't be peaceful anymore.
…
A few days later, news came from the School of the Emperor Star. Mu Yunxuan and Hua Jieyu were together.
The news caused a huge commotion. As the top beauty of Donghai Academy, countless people paid attention to Hua Jieyu. Now, the goddess in many people's hearts was with someone else.
Although it was Mu Yunxuan, a genius of the School of the Emperor Star, many people still felt heartbroken.
The news naturally reached Ye Futian's ears. He was even more confused. What was Mu Yunxuan trying to do? How could the School of the Emperor Star allow these rumors to spread?
Even though he didn't take it seriously, as the days passed, the rumors became more and more serious. His mood worsened. Yu Sheng and Yi Qingxuan could feel it too.
Hua Jieyu, who was cultivating in the School of the Emperor Star, also heard the news. That day, Shu Yuyan came back and told her about Mu Yunxuan's words to Ye Futian. To prevent people from suspecting her relationship with Ye Futian, she held it in. She was afraid that the Nandou clan would harm Ye Futian if they found out.
But as the rumors spread, she couldn't stay calm anymore. She wanted to find Mu Yunxuan but couldn't find him.
She wanted to leave the School of the Emperor Star to find Ye Futian but realized that someone was watching her. It was as if everything was planned. She couldn't help but feel anxious.
In the School of the Emperor Star, Hua Jieyu stood at the edge of the pavilion and looked at Donghai Academy. "Yuyan, do you think he'll misunderstand?"
"If he really knows you, he probably won't," Shu Yuyan said.
"Gossip is a fearful thing. When more people spread it, it seems like it's true. Even if he believes me, with his personality, he'll be very unhappy. I didn't go find him." Hua Jieyu lowered her head slightly. "I don't want him to hear anything like this."
"The School of the Emperor Star seems to be doing this on purpose. Maybe they're already guessing your relationship with him. If we go find him now, it'll be the same as admitting it," Shu Yuyan said.
"That's why I feel bad," Hua Jieyu said quietly. Shu Yuyan stood silently by her side. She could feel the pain of this proud girl beside her at this moment.
At this time, there were two figures in front of another pavilion. It was the elder from the School of the Emperor Star that Ye Futian had seen that day and Nandou Ku of the Nandou clan.
"Didn't the Nandou clan say that they don't want Hua Jieyu to be involved in relationships? But now it seems that what Xia Fan said is most likely true," the elder from the School of the Emperor Star said to Nandou Ku.
"We haven't confirmed it yet, have we? Since he's the Guqin Devil's disciple, it's not surprising that he's close to Jieyu," Nandou Ku said.
"Many things are reflected in the details. I think this daughter of the Nandou clan is going to walk the same path as the previous generation. Furthermore, she's the disciple of the Guqin Devil. How ironic," the elder sneered.
"I will inform the family. Moreover, Jieyu is still young. Even if she does have feelings for him, she will forget them quickly," Nandou Ku said.
"Hmph, then your Nandou clan better watch carefully. Don't do the same thing as before. Now, Ye Futian is cultivating under Yi Xiang's tutelage. Not many people know the inside story of that battle, but with Yi Xiang's understanding of the School of the Emperor Star, he might have noticed something. I don't want the two geniuses that Donghai Academy has cultivated to go against the School of the Emperor Star in the future.
With that, the old man flicked his sleeves and left, looking somewhat unhappy.
A cold light flashed across Nandou Ku's eyes. This was indeed similar to what had happened back then.
