Chapter 352: Chapter 353: The Dean’s Shock (Part Four)
Shen Ran was just about to formally introduce Mu Ruyue to the Dean, but before he could speak, what happened next stunned him.
“Are you the Dean of Central State Academy?” Mu Ruyue forcefully pulled a smile onto her face, “Your great na has indeed thundered in my ears. Even in the Saint Realm, I’ve heard of you. Now seeing you in person, your deanor is truly exceptional, making it hard for anyone to ignore you.”
Upon hearing this, the Dean’s face, which resembled that of a grieving mourner, imdiately lit up with a smile as he stroked his snow-white beard, chuckling, “Girl, am I really that famous?”
Mu Ruyue blinked her eyes, “Of course, compared to you, everyone else falls far behind. I have long admired you and have prostrated myself in awe. I ca to Central State Academy just to witness your esteed presence.”
Shen Ran was completely dumbfounded.
He had only said those words casually; who knew that the girl would take them seriously? With her icy, aloof personality, who would have thought she could utter such sycophantic words?
Not to ntion the Dean’s great na, before this girl arrived in Central Province, she probably didn’t even know what Central State Academy was, yet now she could speak such blatant lies with her eyes closed…
Mu Ruyue suppressed the turmoil in her stomach. If it weren’t for Dan Book and Little White, how could she possibly say such nauseating words?
“Hahaha!” The Dean laughed heartily, “Girl, not bad, you’re really not bad at all. The old man here particularly likes what you’ve said. By the way, I called you here for the Dan Book…”
“Dean, why has your plant withered?”
Before the Dean could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Ruyue.
Her words seed to touch a sore point for the Dean as he said with teary eyes, “This is my beloved Silver Leaf, I don’t know what happened. I found it withered this morning, ah, let’s not talk about that. Girl, let’s continue discussing the Dan Book…”
Unfortunately, as soon as he ntioned the Dan Book, he was cut off again by the following words stuck in his throat.
“Dean, perhaps I can revive it?” Mu Ruyue’s eyes twinkled as a smile curved her lips.
In an instant, the Dean stood there astonished, staring at Mu Ruyue in disbelief, “You… what did you just say? You can revive the Silver Leaf?”
He hadn’t misheard, had he?
Instantly, whatever orders laid down by his teacher or the matter of the Dan Book were all cast to the back of his mind. All he could think about now was to revive his cherished Silver Leaf.
“But you need to agree to a request of mine,” Mu Ruyue said to the Dean with a smile.
The Dean imdiately beca excited, nodding vigorously, “Not just one request, even a hundred I would agree to. Please, revive Silver Leaf for . It’s a millennium-old dicinal material, and it’s my precious treasure. I can’t sleep at night if I don’t see it, and sohow it withered this ti!”
Without another word, Mu Ruyue slowly approached the Silver Leaf.
Her hand touched the withered leaves, and in that mont, a surge of Qi flowed out, turning into a faint glow covering the entire plant…
The Dean’s heart leaped, his eyes unblinkingly fixed on the dicinal material under Mu Ruyue’s hands, and he asked hesitantly, “That… girl, are you sure it will work?”
Mu Ruyue didn’t answer him, her gaze calm and unruffled.
A green light poured from the palm of her hand, and the withered leaves underneath the green glow began to emit a fluorescence. Soon after, the Dean witnessed a scene he would never forget in his life, his eyes widening in astonishnt.
