Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return Chapter 1089: Daughter in Old Age, Loved Without Measure
"You better leave quickly. Offending anyone is fine, but why did you have to offend the eldest daughter of the Jiang family? Your days at Long Yan Academy won’t be easy from now on." At this mont, a deliberately lowered voice sounded behind them.
The speaker was a swordsman in his twenties, judging from the sword robe he wore, he seed to be an academy disciple who enrolled a few years ago. While speaking, he sighed and cautiously watched his surroundings, as if he feared being found talking to Mu Hanyan.
On this day every year when new students enroll, it’s also the day when many academy disciples return from their adventures. It’s estimated that this young swordsman, like Jiang Qiling, has just returned and seeing the earlier scene, he casually reminded Mu Hanyan.
Around them, quite a few academy disciples were returning as well. Their expressions were sowhat strange when looking at Mu Hanyan—either surprised, sympathetic, gloating, or simply curious. However, one thing was consistent: these individuals kept an inadvertent distance from Mu Hanyan, seemingly afraid of being associated with her.
"Excuse , Brother, what’s Jiang Qiling’s background?" Mu Hanyan couldn’t help but ask.
"Please don’t call Brother; I don’t deserve it." The young swordsman waved his hand repeatedly, saying embarrassedly.
Mu Hanyan thought he might have so concerns but didn’t mind, she just smiled lightly.
"Sigh, anyway, I’ll be leaving the academy soon, so I’ll tell you. Do you know Jiang Yunhe, the Master Jiang?" The young swordsman hesitated for a mont and then spoke to Mu Hanyan.
"The Dean of Soaring Dragon Branch, one of the top three experts of Dragon Academy?" Mu Hanyan was slightly startled, guessing Jiang Qiling’s identity.
"Yes, Jiang Qiling is indeed Jiang Yunhe’s only beloved daughter." The young swordsman nodded.
No wonder Jiang Qiling is so arrogant, so domineering. It turns out she is Jiang Yunhe’s only daughter. Mu Hanyan suddenly realized.
Although she doesn’t know much about Long Yan Academy, she has heard a little about so important people and events.
Long Yan Academy has three major branches: Illusion Dragon Branch, War Dragon Branch, and Soaring Dragon Branch. The Illusion Dragon Branch specializes in Golden Stone Elixirs and sword casting and alchemy techniques, along with so strange and mysterious arts. War Dragon Branch excels in various swordsmanship combat skills, while Soaring Dragon Branch is renowned for cultivation thods and sealing arrays, also possessing so strange and mysterious arts.
Among the three branches, the strongest is said to be Soaring Dragon Branch, whose dean Jiang Yunhe is one of the academy’s three greatest experts, on par with Gong Hongru.
If Mu Hanyan rembers correctly, Jiang Yunhe’s fa was widespread two hundred years ago, while Jiang Qiling is only sixteen—a true daughter born late in life, treasured dearly, spoiled to excess.
The entire Soaring Dragon Branch undoubtedly treats her like a little princess, indulging and protecting her, so developing an arrogant and domineering nature is not surprising.
It’s no wonder that those academy disciples who know Jiang Qiling’s identity looked at her like they were seeing the plague, wishing to stay as far away as possible. Such a person is simply not soone they would dare provoke.
Of course, in Mu Hanyan’s view, if Jiang Qiling is truly a spoiled young lady, she is nothing to fear. Actually, the most terrifying thing is her cunning and shrewdness.
Capable of bending and stretching, being able to release and retract, with such a mind, coupled with her unique identity, this opponent is far more difficult to deal with than any she has encountered before. Her status in Long Yan Academy is even higher than that of the Fifth Prince in the Capital, after all, there is more than one prince, but Jiang Yunhe’s treasured daughter is one of a kind.
"It seems I’ve stirred up trouble." Ling Baobao, who had heard of Jiang Yunhe’s na, scratched the back of his head awkwardly and said.
"It’s not your fault. Even without today’s incident, there’s still the matter with Qiu Ping’an. I am destined to be an enemy rather than a friend with her. In fact, thanks to you today, otherwise I would not have seen her true colors." Mu Hanyan said indifferently.
This Jiang Qiling is not old, filled with arrogance and bad habits, easily making people associate her with those impulsive, reckless, and superficial spoiled ladies. But after what happened just now, Mu Hanyan realized the real Jiang Qiling is not like that.
Being enemies rather than friends, she would inevitably find trouble with her sooner or later. Seeing her true face sooner is no bad thing, so Mu Hanyan certainly wouldn’t bla Ling Baobao for it. Moreover, even if Ling Baobao did stir up trouble, Mu Hanyan wouldn’t bla him, as she is very protective, anyone who touches her scales will face repercussions.
Speaking of which, Mu Hanyan suddenly thought of another matter: Jiang Qiling, with a deep mind, insists on posing as an arrogant young lady, quite similar to her previous reputation as a playboy, could it be, she’s also hiding sothing?
"Thank you for the reminder, Brother, may I know how to address you?" Mu Hanyan politely asked the young swordsman.
"Please don’t call Brother; I truly don’t deserve it. My na is Tan Yu, just call by my na." Tan Yu waved his hands repeatedly and said to Mu Hanyan, "You’ve just arrived at the academy today, it’s best to go inside quickly, otherwise if Jiang Qiling changes her mind, it could be troubleso."
Tan Yu clearly just returned from his adventures and hasn’t heard of Mu Hanyan’s fa, showing so concern for him.
Mu Hanyan smiled, this Tan Yu has a good heart. If it were soone else, even if not gloating, they would mostly find a way to keep their distance, but he alone dared remind them.
Of course, this might also be related to him leaving the academy soon. Long Yan Academy is definitely not a place to retire; if you stay for several years without significant improvent in your abilities, naturally you have to leave, it seems that’s the case with Tan Yu.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Tan, we will enter shortly." Mu Hanyan spoke, glancing at the academy plaque.
Huayue and the others mirrored her actions, the higher the strength, the harder the improvent. Unless they consu so spirit pills, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, or have a remarkable opportunity, achieving significant enhancents in a short ti is simply impossible.
This Master Swordsmanship is a shortcut they don’t want to miss such an opportunity.
"Are you really planning to comprehend this Master Swordsmanship? Let tell you, it’s not easy at all. Apart from those core disciples who’ve bitterly cultivated at the academy for years, I’ve never seen anyone who can comprehend the Master Swordsmanship upon arrival." Tan Yu was about to leave but seeing Mu Hanyan’s actions, he grew curious again.
After all, he would soon leave the academy, with fewer concerns. However special and arrogant Jiang Qiling is within Long Yan Academy, she couldn’t possibly chase down soone like him.
"Just trying, there’s no harm in it." Mu Hanyan slightly smiled and turned her head again.
