The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 32: Signing up for Martial Qi

Those young ladies’ gossiping faces bustling with noise and excitement, suddenly became red as they bashfully looked at Nangong Lie’s handsome face, and answered with a soft voice, “Sir, didn’t you know? That girl indeed stuck to Lord Murong like glue. Everyday, she did everything she could to wrap herself around him. She stuck to him so much until he finally got so fed up that he broke their engagement. Yet she still shamelessly followed him to White Academy. Now, she must’ve heard that Lord Murong wanted to major in Martial Qi. That’s why she’s risking her life to go sign up.”

“What?” Nangong Lie curved his thin lips up and turned to glance at the guy by his side. The way he talked hinted that he was gloating over someone’s misfortune, “Indeed it’s a love that’s deep and long lasting.”

Baili Jia Jue’s hand that was holding the teacup simply paused, the water in the tea cup indistinctly swirled into layers upon layers …..

In the distance, the so called boyfriend in their discussion, Murong Chang Feng, was just recommending Helian Jiao Er to several masters. Right now, seeing the masters’ pensive gazes turn to look over at him, he merely felt a burst of embarrassment.

Upon seeing this, Helian Jiao Er blinked her beautiful and tearful eyes, “Lord, don’t blame Older Sister. Her Qi was lacking and her heart was also anxious. That’s why she thought of a strategy like this. I’m afraid she’s just thinking of making use of Lord’s glory.”

“A good-for-nothing is still good-for-nothing after all.” Murong Chang Feng said emotionlessly, as if he was just stating a fact.

However, he totally didn’t notice that Grandmaster, who was sitting at the seat of honor, was fiercely furrowing his brows, trying really hard to hold down his anger…..

Good-for-nothing?

This bunch of brats who didn’t have their eyes opened dared to call his dear disciple names like good-for-nothing!

If she was a good-for-nothing then all of them were dirt that can’t even compare with a good- for-nothing.

“Grandmaster, this is the one I previously talked to you about, my official disciple. Come, come, Chang Feng, hurry and come meet Grandmaster.”

Murong Chang Feng was overjoyed at heart and was just about to step forward and say his greeting.

Grandmaster coldly interrupted him, “I am unable to accept Lord Murong’s complements. That year, didn’t the Helian family collapse exactly because of these flatteries. Let’s just forget about this old man here.”

Everybody was stunned and really could not understand how Grandmaster, who seemed fine just a moment ago, now had a temper which flared up without any reason.

In addition, even the Helian family was mentioned?

Murong Chang Feng’s smiled a bit stiffly at the corners of his mouth. Considering that he’s the heir of the prestigious Prince’s Palace, when did he ever receive such treatment? However, he knew that the person in front of him wasn’t just anyone. Rather, he held the prestigious reputation of the Grand Advisor, Grandmaster.

This old man’s temper was even more unpredictable than his own master’s. It’d be very difficult to curry his favor!

Helian Jiao Er wholeheartedly wanted to help Murong Chang Feng out of his predicament. In a melodious voice, she opened her mouth, “Grandmaster mentioned the Helian family, do you actually know of father?”

“Of course I know.” Grandmaster leisurely stroked his white beard.

Helian Jiao Er laughed and thought of using this to establish a connection.
