Chapter 212

It had been a year since Gu Chen last saw Ye Qingshuang.

On the night when the Rising Dragon Ceremony ended, Gu Chen and Ye Qingshuang entered the Rising Dragon Pool together. Teacher Wu Mo of the True Martial Academy appeared and tried to attack him, but he was killed by Elder Nangong.

After that, Gu Chen left with Elder Nangong. After that night, he never saw Ye Qingshuang again.

After that, the 68 sects of the Feng Lin Prefecture were annihilated, and Ye Qingshuang's life became a question mark.

Now that he was in a foreign country and saw Ye Qingshuang again, Gu Chen couldn't help but be surprised.

She had become more beautiful, and she was also taller. However, she seemed to have become thinner. That cold arrogance also seeped out from her bones.

"You've already entered the inner yard after a year, and you're also at the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings. It's already very impressive. Don't be too harsh on yourself."

Mu Ziyu continued chatting. Seeing Ye Qingshuang frowning slightly, she turned her head and saw that Gu Chen was staring at her, making her feel a little uncomfortable.

She felt even angrier in her heart. She originally felt that this Chen Gu was useless and was not worthy of her Junior Sister Lanchu. She didn't expect him to be unable to move his eyes away when he saw other beauties.

"Teacher Mu, I still have something to do. I'll take my leave first."

Ye Qingshuang didn't care too much about this strange man's gaze and left after saying that.

Gu Chen looked at her back view and shook his head. The memories that had been evoked in his heart scattered like the wind.

To him, Ye Qingshuang was just a stranger. She wasn't an enemy, nor was she a friend.

Her existence had evoked his memories, but that was all.

Since she had already settled down in the True Martial Academy, which was extremely far away from the Eastern Wilderness, the two of them shouldn't have any more interactions.

Among the 68 sects of the Feng Lin Prefecture, there was someone who had escaped a tragic fate. Wasn't this a good thing?

"Don't look anymore. Ye Qingshuang is not only beautiful, but she also has the Martial Saint Physique. She's also extremely talented and created her own Forgetful Wuchen Sword Technique.

"Even in the True Martial Academy, she is still an absolute genius. Not everyone is worthy of her."

Seeing that Gu Chen was still staring at her, Mu Ziyu was furious, and her words were not pleasant to hear.

"Forgetful Dustless … She sure is considerate."

Gu Chen muttered to himself when he heard that.

"What are you talking about? You'd better understand me. "

Mu Ziyu was speechless. Her words actually had another meaning. Ye Qingshuang was so outstanding, but so was her Junior Sister Lanchu. In fact, her bloodline was even more noble.

She was trying to tell Gu Chen that he wasn't worthy of Lanchu, but he didn't seem to listen to her at all!

"Miss Mu, please lead the way."

Gu Chen pulled himself out of his memories and smiled in a carefree manner. The past had already vanished into thin air at this moment.

Mu Ziyu held back her anger but didn't dare to flare up. Just like that, she brought Gu Chen to the academy's library.

"You'll be working here in the future. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask Teacher Xu. I still have things to do, so I'll leave first!"

She left in a huff, not wanting to talk to Gu Chen anymore.

"This Mu Ziyu seems to have a problem with me?"

Gu Chen sensed the change in her attitude, but he didn't know why.

Since he couldn't understand, he decided not to think about it anymore. A woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the ocean. In any case, he successfully sneaked into the True Martial Academy.

The True Martial Academy's library was extremely large. There were six floors in total, and each floor contained a large number of books.

The books on the first three floors were all kinds of leisure books. There were Confucian and Buddhist numerology classics, as well as history, geography, customs, and other kinds of knowledge.

The last three floors involved the inheritance of various cultivation techniques, spells, and martial techniques. That was the most important place, and it was also the place where the academy's students had to go.

Gu Chen was in charge of the first three floors. He was an outsider with unknown origins. Even with Mu Ziyu's recommendation, it was impossible for him to immediately guard the last three floors.

He was also willing to do so. There were no cultivation techniques on the first three floors, so this job was indeed very leisurely.

Gu Chen's superior was Teacher Xu. His name was unknown, and he wasn't in the library at the moment.

Mu Ziyu also didn't tell him where to find her. Gu Chen simply stayed on the first floor. He casually took out a book and flipped through it, waiting quietly.

The book in his hand was a geographical record. It introduced the mountains and rivers of the Kunlun Continent, with emphasis on some of the dangerous places of the continent that everyone knew.

Gu Chen was immediately fascinated when he read it.

The Ghastly Ruins and Desolate God Valley that he had been to before were introduced in the book.

Apart from that, places like the Glacier Abyss of the Northern Plains, the Demon God's Ancient Land of the Southern Mountains, and the Kunlun Ruins of the Middle Earth Empire were all famous places of great danger.

The book even said that there was a boundless ocean outside the Eastern Wilderness, and there were other continents at the end of the ocean.

The Kunlun Continent was actually just a drop in the ocean in the entire world.

It was unknown how much of the geographical record was true, but it greatly broadened Gu Chen's horizons.

He had grown up in the Eastern Wilderness, and places like the Eastern Wilderness and the Southern Mountains were called barbarian lands by the people of the Middle Earth Empire.

The reason why it was called that was not purely because of discrimination, but because the people from these places could not compare to the people of the Middle Earth Empire in terms of horizons and knowledge, especially some of the nobles.

Gu Chen realized his lack of knowledge. He glanced at the vast number of books on the floor and decided to spend time digesting all this knowledge while he was in the True Martial Academy.

The attraction of this knowledge to him was even greater than the cultivation techniques on the last three floors.

"Who are you? Why are you here? "

A woman's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Gu Chen's reading.

He raised his head and saw a female teacher in her thirties standing in front of him. She looked vaguely familiar.

"I'm the new supervisor. Teacher Mu Ziyu recommended me. You must be Teacher Xu, right?"

Gu Chen closed the book and smiled.

"A new supervisor? Finally, someone came to help me. "

When Teacher Xu heard this, she sized up Gu Chen. This person looked quite spirited, and she could not help but reveal a joyful expression.

"My surname is Chen, and my name is Gu. May I know Teacher Xu's full name?"

Gu Chen took the initiative to introduce himself.

"My name is Xu Fang," Teacher Xu replied.

"Xu Fang … Xu Yun?"

Gu Chen muttered to himself. He suddenly remembered why this face was so familiar.

Back then, one of the two teachers from the True Martial Academy who had come to the Wuchen Sect was called Xu Yun. Back then, she had tried her best to invite him to join the True Martial Academy. Compared to Wu Mo, Gu Chen had a better impression of her.

The woman in front of him looked somewhat similar to Teacher Xu Yun. They might be sisters.

"Supervisor Chen, what's wrong?"

Xu Fang saw that Gu Chen was distracted and could not help but ask.

"It's nothing. It's just that I've seen someone who looks like Teacher Xu. Her name seems to be Xu Yun?"

Gu Chen casually probed. Teacher Xu Yun must still be in the True Martial Academy, so it was not strange that he had seen her before.

"Xu Yun is my younger sister."

When Xu Fang heard this, her eyes suddenly dimmed. "She does look like me, but she died a year ago."
