Chapter 349: Chapter 350: The Dean’s Shock (Part One)
Indeed, it was Mo Li’s strength that was too weak, it was just that he accidentally exerted too much force and crippled him, which had nothing to do with him at all.
Accidentally crippled him?
The crowd looked at the miserable Mo Li, wondering if such injuries could truly have been accidental. What was even more shocking was that this formidable Demon Beast actually addressed Mu Ruyue as its master.
Everyone knew what it meant to be called a master.
“Master,” Lin Ruoying glanced at Mu Ruyue then turned to the elder, saying, “Master, I think Miss Ruyue didn’t do it on purpose. I wonder if you could spare them this time for my sake?”
“Ruoying, are you pleading for them?” The elder frowned and looked at Lin Ruoying with a faint question in his eyes.
Lin Ruoying nodded slightly, “That girl seems to know Ye Wuchen. Even though I is unclear if it’s true or not, I’d like to ask for this favor. What if it is true? It would be bad if Wuchen comes back and gets angry. Since she is an acquaintance of his, it’s only right for me to share some of the responsibility and look after her.”
Ye Wuchen…
At the mention of these three words, the elder’s expression softened a little.
Since entering the academy, he hadn’t seen a disciple as outstanding as him. Perhaps only a woman like Ruoying was a match for such a character.
The elder turned to look at Lin Ruoying and nodded in satisfaction.
Ruoying was excellent in both character and Talent. Even though Ye Wuchen was unwilling to become his Disciple, it wouldn’t be too bad if he married one of his disciples.
The two of them were so well-matched that they could potentially become a couple second only to the legendary ones like Dan Venerate and Emperor Zi.
“Ye Wuchen?” Yan Jin sharply caught these three words, his handsome face slightly darkened, and his piercing gaze turned to Lin Ruoying, “What is your relationship with Ye Wuchen?”
The last sentence of that woman was really annoying.
What does it mean to share some of the burden and take good care of the girl for Ye Wuchen? As if the girl were a burden, and she was the wife taking on some issues for her husband?
Lin Ruoying’s face blushed slightly, her lips curving into a soft smile, “I am Wuchen’s friend.”
“Friend?” Yan Jin scoffed, “I don’t think you really consider him as a friend. But, I am very curious, is this ‘friend’ title self-proclaimed?”
How could a man like Ye Wuchen befriend a woman with ulterior motives? He would definitely not let the girl be troubled in her heart.
“How dare you!” The elder’s face changed, and just as he was about to get angry, Lin Ruoying stopped him.
She shook her head and said with a gentle smile, “Master, didn’t you promise me not to mind them? Let it go. Just a few words, after all, I, Lin Ruoying, am not yet at the point where I care about others’ remarks.”
The elder still felt compassion for his disciple and forcefully suppressed the anger bubbling up within him.
“Fine, for Ruoying’s sake, I, Fu Li, will not take issue with you. But I do need to have a serious talk with Shen Ran, to think he allows his people to be so presumptuous in my territory!” He shook his robes fiercely and spoke coldly, “Ruoying, let’s go!”
“Yes, Master,” Lin Ruoying bowed slightly and showed a smile to Mu Ruyue, “Miss, you’re Wuchen’s friend. It’s only natural for me to help you. Otherwise, he would be worried when he returns. But next time, do not be so reckless. Some things are not worth showing off your capabilities. It’s better to endure and let it pass, why resort to hurting others?”
With those words, she turned and left.
