"Hello! which grade are you in?" An inquisitive voice was suddenly heard from her back.
The bright-eyed master deeply frowned as she turned around.
A youth stood behind her. The person's body was slim, tall, and large with bright piercing eyes. Faint and thick soul power fluctuations were indistinctly being emitted from his body.
The youth could not help feeling his heart race upon seeing the delicate features at such a short distance as he recalled about the surprise he felt during that one glance from earlier. He spoke in a deliberate light-hearted manner, "I saw you standing by the pond for a very long time and thought you might be taking something too hard. Why don't we get acquainted with each other? I'm a new student. I entered the academy slightly later as I was engaged in closed-door cultivation. I've only managed to enter fourth grade straight."
The ordinary classes here were divided into six grades. The ability to enter fourth grade straight was a form of show off on its own. Of course, he had the capital to show it off too.
The bright-eyed master's brows relaxed once again."Sorry, I'm waiting for someone."
"Oh? I don't think I've ever met you in the past." The youth seemed to be oblivious to the bright-eyed master's reluctance to get acquainted. The smile on his face grew brighter.
"My mind is rather disturbed. I'm sorry." She turned gracefully around and faced the pond water once again.
"Today's a day that disturbs my peace of mind and it's troubling me. Why don't I buy you a drink and listen to you venting your troubles?" The youth walked over to her side and firmly suggested.
The bright-eyed master's expression dimmed."Please allow me to have a moment of silence, alright?" She suddenly felt like laughing when the words came out from her mouth.
If this was her from five years ago, perhaps she would have immediately tossed this boy into the pond water. But five years later, she was no longer the little witch from back then. She would take her family's reputation into consideration and would not behave as rashly as she used to in the past. She recalled the past and found that those days were truly joyful!
The youth shrugged."Alright then." He was not a lecherous person after all. No matter how surprised he felt or even if it was love at first sight in his heart, he would never go overboard with his behavior.
Just as he was preparing to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw a hint of a smile in the bright-eyed master's eyes. He had an idea in his mind as he recalled the trick taught by his unscrupulous uncle. A good girl would agree out of fear when a man pestered so he would always stand a chance as long as he put in the effort.
"You smiled? Is there something funny about me?" The youth asked out of curiosity as he stopped walking.
The bright-eyed master turned around and looked at him."I was only thinking that if this were to happen five years ago, a person who has the audacity to pester around me would have already ended up inside the Heavenly Fountain way earlier. On the other hand, I have no choice but to feign gratefulness now."
The youth stared at the bright-eyed young maiden with a warm smile on her face in bewilderment. The words that came out from her mouth were so incompatible with her appearance at present.
"I don't believe it. You're not that kind of person, " the youth resolutely said. He would not believe the maiden that he had identified as a goddess at one glance could do such a thing.
Just as he was affirming the belief in his mind, he suddenly felt his throat tighten. Before he could react to the situation, he could feel his entire self flying up in the air like a cloud.
The scenery in his surroundings spun around and startled him. He could not refrain himself from screaming in the air. His body was flying in the air without the slightest control. He cut through an arc in the air before he landed in the distance.
He was so startled as he was about to gather his soul power only to discover that he was utterly incapable of using it. He felt as if his entire person had been sealed.
He subconsciously closed his eyes and curled up his body. On the other hand, he felt as if there was a force that supported his body at this moment. His body dropped in the midst of the spinning. He felt a mild tremor underneath his feet as if he had already landed on solid ground. He subconsciously curled up his body but the feeling of impact in his imagination did not dawn upon him. He could only see the firm ground.
He was stunned for a moment. He stood up and discovered that his soul power was once again smoothly flowing inside his body. He looked at his feet in slight confusion before he looked at his body and touched his throat. It felt as if nothing had ever happened.
His face was already filled with astonishment when he could clearly see the scenery in his surroundings.
He was still standing by the side of Heavenly Fountain, but he was already in front of the academic building at present. He looked up and saw that the bright-eyed maiden was still standing on the other side of the Heavenly Fountain which was about a hundred meters away. There was an additional person next to her. He had a large and tall physique and as huge as a mountain.
'It's him?'
The youth strenuously swallowed a gulp of saliva.
Before he came to the academy, he had never learned the meaning of fear. But ever since he came here and encountered that person, he learned that fear was one of the emotions necessary for a human being.
That person was the dean of the academy. He was responsible for the supervision of students' daily learning and cultivation. Ever since he became the dean, the entire academy's learning style had elevated to a brand new level. On the other hand, there was also a legend that would never die about that very person.
'This person should be the next academy president, right?' Almost everyone in the academy firmly believed this rumor.
This person was standing right by the side of the young maiden at this moment. The youth's gaze coincidentally met the man's gaze when he looked over there. The man's gaze was calm and deep. He did not look threatening yet that one star from the distance was enough to make the youth feel shivering all over.
Who was that girl?
Long Yue heaved a sigh in his heart upon seeing the bright-eyed master before himself. Not long before, she was the very first person to have touched his heart. Even though everyone was hoping to make the match for him and her.
However, the thing called fate had never been something that could be transferred with a person's willpower. He found his destiny in the end while she found the person she loved. Only to know that the person she loved did not appreciate the fate.
"Brother Long Yue, you seem to have grown tougher." The bright-eyed master raised her hand as she was speaking and pinched his bulky arm.
Such an overbearing dean of the academy was immediately feeling a little shy. His face blushed ever so slightly as he subconsciously fell back by one step then took a look in all directions."Yun'er, be careful of your actions. Do you still remember your identity?"
The bright-eyed master smiled."I truly wanted to leave behind my identity during that moment earlier. I think I still prefer my old self. How about you? Do you feel the same too?"
Long Yue was stunned for a moment before he deeply frowned."What's going on?"
The bright-eyed master's charming figure shivered."He's here."
"He's here?" Long Yue's gaze immediately turned solemn and it was as if radiance was penetrating through it.
"Hmm, he's here. He's still alive." As these six words came out from the bright-eyed master's lips, she who was still smiling all over a moment ago had tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.
She had a complete emotional breakdown when she learned about the grievous news of Shrek's explosion. She had never forgotten about the person's silhouette in her heart no matter how disappointed she was when she left the place. It was very tough to love a person but it was even tougher to forget the person one loved.
Especially when she learned that the person could very possibly be dead, the heart-wrenching pain tormented her every single day.
As the princess of the empire, she was already at a suitable age for marriage since way earlier. However, her mood did not allow her to do so. The emperor's love and affection for her allowed her more freedom so she had not been married by order like the other princesses all along under the protection of her brothers and the emperor.
However, she was still feeling the pain in the depth of her heart all this while. Even as such she spent most of time cultivating in her room for it was only by engaging in the cultivation process that she could temporarily forget about the person.
Yet she had never expected that he would suddenly come under such circumstances. It was when she was heading to Tang Sect in preparation to exchange a set of Tang Sect's Hidden Weapon Technique that she suddenly saw the car that drove into the headquarters to welcome him with the highest standards.
