Leaving the Maple Tree Stake, Chu Hen went back first.
Xi Lan had yet to see Master, but it was clear that she had a conflict with his disciple Wu Zai. However, Chu Hen has never been a timid person. If you bully me, then you don't need to hide it anymore.
After a while, Chu Hen arrived at the Martial House's front courtyard plaza.
Along the way, many people were discussing about tomorrow night's' Star Artillery Compet.i.tion '.
"Sigh, it's f * * king the date of the Starry Night Monarch a.s.sembly again, the day that the newbies in Heavenly Star Martial Palace are being abused!"
"If you want to beat me up, then do it! I won't go tomorrow night anyway. "
"That's right. It would be a disgrace if we were to go. It would be better if we did not go."
… ….
As these words stopped in his ears, Chu Hen could not help but feel a little inexplicably faint sense of sorrow.
Even though he was in the Heavenly Star Martial Palace, there were still too many people who a.s.sociated their face with the Martial House.
"Junior Brother Chu Hen..."
Along with familiar shouts, two figures walked over. They were Mouse and Mu Feng.
"Senior apprentice-brother Mouse." Chu Hen smiled, then could not help but be startled, and pointed at his arm, "What happened to you?"
Mouse's arm was wrapped in a thick bandage, which was required to treat his injuries. However, to Chu Hen's surprise, his opponent had actually tied two bows on his bandages.
Mu Feng who was at the side slightly raised his eyebrows, and said with a complacent look, "Hehe, what do you think? My cooking skills are pretty good, right? "
Chu Hen's forehead was immediately covered in black lines. Letting Mu Feng change the medicine for the mouse was indeed the wrong choice.
However, Mouse didn't seem to mind, and said, "That Senior Brother Gu Qing has already helped me complete the admission procedures, I'm now a member of the Heavenly Star Martial Palace."
Chu Hen nodded, "It's good as long as you don't mind."
"How could that be? Heavenly Star Martial Palace was also an extraordinary High Martial House in the past, and the entrance examination for new disciples in Heavenly Star Martial Palace was no worse than for Hao Yue Academy.
"Hehe, you're right, Rodent …" Mu Feng patted Lao Zi's shoulder, "This place is indeed pretty good, especially Xi Lan who has one of the four beauties of the imperial city and Bai Yuyue who is one of the six great pearls.
Chu Hen was furious but at the same time, he found it funny. This Mu Feng was really good enough to not leave a woman in three sentences.
While they were talking, a commotion broke out in another part of the square.
A middle-aged man dressed as a teacher had pasted a piece of Xuan paper on one of the bulletin boards.
"What is this announcement?" Mu Feng muttered, and directly ran over to check.
Chu Hen, Lao Shu also walked over curiously.
The announcement on the xuan paper was about tomorrow's' Star King's Gathering '.
The general content was that the new disciples from Heavenly Star Martial Palace would arrive at the Jun Lai Pavilion tomorrow evening to exchange pointers with the new students from the various High Martial House s.
"I thought it was some kind of good thing! So you're using the banner of communication to bring glory to the academy! "
Mu Feng tilted his head and rolled his eyes a few times as he mumbled to himself, "There should be quite a few beauties in this Starry Queen's a.s.sociation that would attend. Who knows, there might be a few beauties that would be captivated by my handsomeness. Right, the capital is so big, there will always be a few people who are blind … "Uh, those who know their stuff …"
"Junior brother Chu Hen, do you want to partic.i.p.ate in the Star ArSir?" Mouse suddenly asked.
"Why?"
"About that, I'm worried that the He Chao brothers will harm you when the time comes, so …"
Chu Hen only laughed, and did not say much, "Don't worry! I know what I'm doing. "
… ….
It was almost dusk, so Chu Hen who had been practicing his spear arts in the training grounds for the entire afternoon, returned back to his living quarters.
Mu Feng and Mouse seemed to have gone out and did not come back.
Then, when Chu Hen just opened his own door, a new junior brother shouted from outside the courtyard, "Senior Brother Chu Hen, are you staying here?"
"Who?" Chu Hen asked in astonishment.
"Senior Brother Chu Hen..." That person walked in and brought a piece of paper in front of Chu Hen, "Senior Brother, just now, outside, there was someone who asked me to pa.s.s this to you."
"Oh?" Chu Hen was slightly surprised as he accepted the slip of paper with some confusion. "Who was that person?"
"I don't know about that. He's around the same age as you, and he even said that you two came from the same place."
About the same age, from the same place.
Lin Yan City?
Chu Hen squinted his eyes, filled with curiosity, and opened the slip of paper, which only had one sentence.
"We will meet at Fallen Leaf Lake in the west of the city before the sky turns dark. We are old acquaintances of the Lin Yan City."
An old friend from the Lin Yan City?
Who is it?
Chu Hen frowned, the confusion on his face became even stronger, who was the owner of the handwriting? He wasn't familiar with it. Had he seen it before? Chu Hen was also unable to say it out.
But, to be honest, the moment Chu Hen saw this piece of paper in front of him, he immediately thought of the matter of him being wrongly accused in Lin Yan City back then.
It was also a note asking him to meet up at Feng Li Pavilion.
Who would have thought that what happened afterwards would become an imprint that Chu Hen would never forget for the rest of his life.
However, what was certain was that this slip of paper was not written by Ye You.
However, ever since that incident had happened, it could be said that the Lin Yan City basically had no friends.
Aren't we going?
Was this yet another trap?
Looking at the hazy sky, Chu Hen hesitated.
… ….
In the evening!
Night had begun to fall, and the flouris.h.i.+ng streets of the Capital City were lit up with dazzling, resplendent lanterns.
West Side Fallen Leaf Lake!
The scenery was pleasant and the sh.o.r.e breeze was cool.
The willows by the lake hung over the lakesh.o.r.e, dancing in the cool breeze. Fallen leaves fell from the sky and gently rippled across the surface of the lake.
At the edge of the Fallen Leaves Lake, there was a luxurious restaurant.
The restaurant was grand with luxurious decorations. Under the bright light of the lanterns, the restaurant was dazzling in gold and jade. From afar, it looked like a palace.
The name of this building was, 'Falling Moon Restaurant'!
It was one of the famous prosperous restaurants in Capital City. All the people who could ascend to the Falling Moon Restaurant were n.o.bles of the Capital City. Falling Moon Restaurant's singing and dancing was even; it was prosperous and luxurious.
… ….
At this moment, at a small lakeside stall that was about 100 meters away from the Falling Moon Restaurant.
Chu Hen drank his fragrant tea and looked at the surface of the Luo Ye Lake quietly.
As the sky gradually darkened, the lakeside of Fallen Leaves Lake was filled with people who had come to take a stroll.
When Chu Hen finished his third cup of tea, a young man's figure suddenly sat on the opposite side, "It's better if you don't have to drink, you won't be able to sleep at night."
The gentle voice carried a faint trace of arrogance.
It was a young man with straight facial features and a stern face. However, Chu Hen felt that he was familiar with this face.
"I don't usually sleep much at night …" Chu Hen replied, his unswerving gaze looking straight at the other party. His throat rolled slightly, and he spat out a few words clearly, "Young Master Liang, long time no see."
Young Master Liang!
In the entire Lin Yan City, there was only one person who could make Chu Hen call him Young Master Liang, and that was the eldest young master of the Liang Family, Liang Yiming.
Liang Yiming was an old friend of the Shaosi Academy.
He was also known as the Young Sect's Four Great Geniuses at the time along with Chu Hen, Ye You and Liu Xiao.
"Haha, Brother Chu, how have you been?" Liang Yiming smiled brightly.
Seeing the smile on the other party's face, Chu Hen had indeed not expected that the person who had invited him here would be Liang Yiming. In the past when they were at Shaozong Academy, the two rarely interacted, to say nothing of now.
"Why did you call me here?" Chu Hen asked.
"I had originally thought that you would return to the Lin Yan City, but who would have thought that you actually did. However, if I were to choose, I would probably choose to do the same as you. I would rather settle in one of the worst academies in the capital than go back and be laughed at. "
Liang Yiming picked up a nearby kettle and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Did you call me here today to reminisce about old times? "It seems like we don't have any old feelings for each other …"
"Hur hur." Liang Yiming had a faint smile on his face. He then pointed in the direction of the Setting Moon Pavilion and said, "Brother Chu, look over there …"
Look over there?
Chu Hen looked in the direction that the other party was pointing at. A few richly dressed young men and women with extraordinary temperament were currently walking towards the main entrance of the Falling Moon Restaurant.
"It's her?"
Chu Hen frowned. Even though there was a distance of nearly a hundred meters between them, Chu Hen still saw Ye You's figure with a single glance.
Ye You wore a light purple cheongsam, her elegant long hair draped over her shoulders, revealing her n.o.ble and elegant temperament. It was a slim and graceful figure, and when compared to the bright lights, it was especially beautiful.
Beside Ye You, a young man with an extraordinary demeanor walked towards him.
… ….
Abruptly, Chu Hen's pupils shrank as an ice-cold chill stealthily flowed within his eyes.
He astonis.h.i.+ngly discovered that behind the man's gorgeous clothes, there was actually a pattern. That pattern was shaped like the 'scorching sun'. The pattern was extremely insolent, like a golden wheel with sharp teeth.
Looking at this pattern, Chu Hen's expression quickly turned into a layer of frost.
"Hehe, Brother Chu, it's so unforgettable!"
Liang Yiming didn't know what Chu Hen was thinking. He only thought that Chu Hen liked Ye You and was furious when he saw that he was together with another man.
In fact, in Chu Hen's eyes, he had long since stopped taking Ye You seriously.
All their friends.h.i.+p had vanished into thin air the night Chu Hen was framed.
Seeing Chu Hen not saying anything, Liang Yiming revealed a faint smile and continued speaking.
"That man is called 'Wei Qingfan', he is the young master of the Wei family, and is also a famous genius of the Capital City. It's said that his strength has already reached the 'Core transformation'. As for what step, I'm not too sure. The Wei Family is quite powerful in the Capital City, so to ask how strong they are, I can only say that it would take no effort at all to exterminate your General's Estate and my Liang Family …. "
… ….
(Today, 3rd, is another day closer to the date of 6th.) He was more or less a bit nervous and worried about his results. How many of his brothers were reading this book? He wasn't sure. No matter what, I will do my best! Brother Hua Hua Hua, please save it for me. When the time comes, smash it onto me ruthlessly. Thank you everyone. (*)
