At the entrance of Immortal Sect First High School.
Chen Mobai found a bubble tea shop and slowly sipped a drink of fresh lychee juice. He was using his cellphone while watching the entrance of the high
school.
Just a while ago, Qing Nu finally texted him back.
As he had guessed, she had been in the Cultivation Room, her phone on Auxiliary Cultivation mode, and all sounds muted.
Once her Cultivation Room ti was over, she saw his ssage and promptly replied.
“Don’t contact anymore!”
Upon seeing this ssage, Chen Mobai hesitated, then composed a reply.
“I’m right at the entrance of your school.”
“What do you want?”
!!..
As soon as Qing Nu received his text, she replied, leaving Chen Mobai confused. He just wanted to apologize for her dismissal from the master’s door. Why did it feel like she was thinking of sothing unpleasant?
“What do you want to drink? I’ll order it for you.
Fairly long after, approximately two to three minutes later, Qing Nu finally
responded.
“Wait!”
Inside the school.
Qing Nu packed her bag and was about to leave when a sunny-faced boy in uniform approached her.
“Let walk you ho.”
“No need, I’m eting a friend.”
Qing Nu shook her head and turned to leave.
The sunny boy didn’t mind; after all, he had been rejected more than once or twice before.
Leaving the school gate, Qing Nu wore a mask and a small round hat. If Chen Mobai wasn’t familiar with how she looked in a mask, and she hadn’t walked so close, he might not have identified her.
“I’m sorry about your dismissal from the master’s door.”
As he handed Qing Nu the juice in his hand, Chen Mobai began with a sincere apology. After all, not everyone has the privilege to be a disciple of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator. Being expelled would leave a permanent stain on Qing Nu’s life record.
“Let’s talk sowhere else.”
After receiving the juice, Qing Nu looked around to confirm that no one recognized her. She signaled Chen Mobai, and they boarded a public bus together.
“What’s wrong?”
Because it was dismissal ti, the bus was crowded. Chen Mobai and Qing Nu could only stand close to each other. She just shook her head and remained silent, seemingly in low spirits.
Finally, they reached Qing Nu’s favorite grilled fish restaurant.
“There are too many people in school that know . If my classmates see
with you, an outsider, they’re sure to gossip.”
It was only now that Qing Nu spoke, saying sothing that Chen Mobai found rather strange.
“Are you famous at school?”
“More or less, perhaps one of the most well-known students?”
“Oh.”
Having heard this, Chen Mobai looked at Qing Nu’s beautiful face, which was more visible without her hat and mask, and nodded lightly in response. He supposes that due to Qing Nu’s beauty and the fact that she was under the guidance of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, her Qi Cultivating Realm might be substantial, and hence her fa.
“I went to the Evergreen Pharmacy today to find you, and Senior Gu said that because you inappropriately used his dicine pool, you’ve violated a taboo of Alchemists. Because of this, he dismissed you from being his disciple. Is this true?”
At this point, having cald down from his initial upheaval of emotions, Chen Mobai verified the information he knew with Qing Nu.
He was thinking it might just be a joke played by Gu Changfeng since their teacher-student bond seed deep.
“Yes, it’s true that it is taboo for Alchemists to use other’s dicine furnace and pool. However, there is one exception – between a master and his disciple.” “Usually, a master would give his used dicine furnace and pool to the disciple upon the latter’s graduation, signifying that the disciple was qualified. My master had previously said that when I graduated, he would give the alchemy equipnt used in the pharmacy.”
“He knew I was using his dicine pool to blend dicine liquids the day before yesterday. He didn’t say anything then, but today he suddenly exploded with anger and kicked out…”
As she spoke, Qing Nu’s eyes turned red, and her lips trembled slightly.
“I’m sorry, it might be because of .”
After hearing this, Chen Mobai could only apologize again.
“It’S not about you. It’s probably because I haven’t been working hard enough lately. The accumulation of teacher’s dissatisfactions exploded, leading to today’s situation.” Qing Nu shook her head, blaming herself. “After finishing the al, I’ll go back to the pharmacy and apologize to my teacher, hoping that he can forgive .”
“Well…”
After hesitating for a while, Chen Mobai ultimately did not tell her that Gu Changfeng had already removed her disciple status from the Heritage Hall of the Ministry of Education.
“What is it?”
“Nothing, let’s eat.”
The owner obviously recognized the two, but facing the custors, he could only greet them with a smile.
After finishing the al, they took the bus to the stop nearby the Evergreen Pharmacy.
However, as soon as they alighted, they could feel that sothing was off.
“This is a police operation, bystanders are not allowed to enter.”
They found that the street to the entrance of the Evergreen Pharmacy had been blocked off. Law Enforcent Cultivators, dressed in black and blue uniforms, were roaming around. When they approached, a person imdiately stopped them.
“What happened? This is my master’s pharmacy.”
With a worried look on her face, Qing Nu saw the pharmacy cordoned off. She wanted to rush past but managed to restrain herself in the end.
“Oh, if that is the case, please follow , I will consult my leader.”
After listening to Qing Nu, the Law Enforcent Cultivator nodded and let them through the cordon.
Chen Mobai followed suit, albeit hesitantly. Given that he was in the vicinity, the Law Enforcent Cultivator assud he was a disciple of Gu Changfeng as well and didn’t stop him.
As soon as they stepped inside, they saw Gu Changfeng, handcuffed, being led out.
“Master!”
“Shut up, you’re not my disciple anymore.”
Upon seeing Qing Nu, who wanted to rush towards him but was stopped, Gu Changfeng glared at her.
“Are you Gu ChangFeng’s disciples?”
At this mont, the leading Law Enforcent Cultivator approached them. He was a middle-aged man with a serious expression. Midsentence, a female Law Enforcent Cultivator with a bob cut handed him a docunt.
“According to the response from the Heritage Hall of the Education Departnt, she has indeed been dismissed as a disciple by Gu Changfeng.” After reading the docunt, the middle-aged man furrowed his brows and looked at Qing Nu, who had widened her eyes in disbelief.
“Take them too. Considering their past master-disciple relationship, she might have been taught the forbidden technique.”
After saying this, he looked at Chen Mobai again, confird with his colleagues that he was just a local resident, and his expression instantly softened.
“Leave your phone number. We might need your assistance later..”
