Chapter 63: Nine Treasures Ning Tian (Please Subscribe and Add to Favorites)
The grudge between Mujin and Zhou Yi had lasted for a long time.
It was not only the love triangle from their youth involving her, Zhou Yi, and Fanyu, in which she lost to Zhou Yi, but later her younger brother was also persecuted by Zhou Yi. Even though Mujin personally lowered herself to beg for mercy, Zhou Yi still expelled her brother.
This directly pushed the hatred between the two to the extreme.
Now, seeing Zhou Yi killed, Fanyu did not even spare her a glance. Mujin only wanted to say: Serves her right!
As for Lin Yun, Mujin had already heard much about him.
He was the first student in Shrek to punch his homeroom teacher senseless the moment he entered the academy, and the one he struck was none other than her mortal enemy Zhou Yi. The moment she heard this news, Mujin had already regarded Lin Yun as a good person.
If she were to learn that Zhou Yi's downfall was all orchestrated by Lin Yun, Mujin would probably bow down to him in gratitude.
"Student Lin Yun, if you ever need help in the future, feel free to come find your teacher," Mujin said with a gentle smile.
"Thank you, Teacher Mu." Lin Yun nodded, then left the office together with Xiao Xiao.
On the way out.
Xiao Xiao blinked and asked, "Lin Yun, Teacher Mu seems much better than that Zhou Yi. She shouldn't be like Zhou Yi, right?"
"No. In the entire outer court, Zhou Yi's teaching was uniquely unreasonable. Teacher Mujin may not have any particularly outstanding qualities, but as a teacher she is very qualified. Don't worry," Lin Yun shook his head and explained.
"That's good." Xiao Xiao let out a sigh of relief and patted her small chest that was just beginning to develop.
"See you tomorrow then?"
"See you tomorrow." Lin Yun waved with a smile and turned to leave.
The next day, Lin Yun walked into Class Eight's classroom on time. His golden eyes swept across the class before heading straight to the back row by the window.
Sitting there was one of the transfer students from Class One. When he saw Lin Yun approaching, he jumped up from his seat and fawningly pulled the chair out for him.
"Boss Lin Yun, please sit!"
"Mm, thanks." Lin Yun nodded and sat down on the throne of the king.
That student chuckled foolishly, then went to find another empty seat. His actions undoubtedly opened up opportunities for himself. Lin Yun thought he had great potential.
At the very least, he should be one of the members of the new student assessment's champion team.
"What's your name?" Lin Yun asked.
"My name is Zheng Xiaolong. Boss Lin Yun, you can just call me Xiaolong!" Zheng Xiaolong scratched his head and smiled honestly.
"Mm, I'll remember you." Lin Yun smiled faintly, propping his chin on one hand as he basked in the sunlight.
This Zheng Xiaolong was indeed good. Though he looked honest and simple, he was in fact careful and perceptive, with a flexible mind — someone worth using.
After Xiao Xiao arrived, Zheng Xiaolong perceptively gave up the seat beside Lin Yun to her and found another spot for himself, leaving the little loli blushing deeply, yet she still sat down quietly.
With just two acts of courtesy, Zheng Xiaolong had earned varying degrees of goodwill from both Lin Yun and Xiao Xiao.
This Zheng Xiaolong was not bad.
Even though it was his first time in Class Eight, nearly everyone there already knew Lin Yun — this unparalleled prodigy who was called the strongest new student king.
Many secretly cast curious glances at him, including two of the most eye-catching girls in Class Eight.
The girl on the left had platinum shoulder-length short hair, and her entire presence radiated extraordinary nobility. The ordinary white Shrek uniform, on her, exuded the aura of an elegant evening gown. Her beauty was also outstanding, with delicate features carrying a trace of pride and clear, luminous eyes.
The girl on the right was the complete opposite. She lacked the quiet elegance of the girl on the left and instead appeared especially hot-tempered. Though only twelve years old, her figure had already developed explosively like that of an adult, and her heroic face carried hints of dissatisfaction and jealousy.
She was Ning Tian, the young sect master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, accompanied by her companion Wu Feng.
Of course, though called companions, Wu Feng's role was more like that of a retainer. She addressed Ning Tian as young master, though Ning Tian usually did not allow her to do so.
"Young master, why do you keep staring at that Lin Yun?" Wu Feng glanced at Lin Yun, then quickly shifted her eyes away, asking in a low voice.
Even Zhou Yi, a six-ring Soul Emperor, had been beaten by Lin Yun with just two punches and was left bedridden for days. Wu Feng, though also possessing the Red Dragon Martial Soul, had only two soul rings, and the pressure she felt from Lin Yun was so overwhelming it made her shudder.
Let alone provoking Lin Yun, Wu Feng did not even dare to meet his gaze for too long.
Ning Tian ignored Wu Feng's question. Her eyes remained fixed on Lin Yun, her face wearing a standard noble's smile.
"To think he would join our Class Eight. It seems the goal of my coming to Shrek has already been found. He is the most suitable person to become my protector," Ning Tian murmured softly, a blush rising on her delicate face.
This was the destiny of the Seven Treasures… the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect. Soul masters possessing the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, if they wished to find a partner, could only choose battle soul masters.
The only one to break this sect rule had been their ancestor Ning Rongrong from ten thousand years ago. Apart from her, there had been no exceptions.
Ning Tian was naturally the same. As the sect's young master destined to inherit leadership, her requirements were even stricter. She not only needed a strong arm to rely on but one strong enough to protect the entire Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
Within Shrek Academy, there were not few who could meet Ning Tian's requirements, but if she had to choose the most outstanding among them, it could only be Lin Yun.
"Strong in power, limitless in potential, handsome in appearance — apart from not yet knowing his character, what flaws does he even have?" The smile on Ning Tian's face grew ever brighter, clearly showing her deep satisfaction with Lin Yun.
She was already calculating how to lure Lin Yun back to the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect to become the sect's pillar husband.
Wu Feng, beside her, pressed her lips tightly, a sour bitterness welling up in her heart.
It was well known.
During the era of the Unrivaled Tang Sect, there were two great "copper alloys." One was the Ice Emperor now nestled in Lin Yun's arms, and the other was this bitter, unfortunate soul — Wu Feng.
Yet the Ice Emperor had already gradually taken Lin Yun's shape, her feelings for the Snow Emperor fading from love into sisterhood.
Wu Feng, however, remained entranced by Ning Tian's beauty, unable to extricate herself, deluded into being that rebellious subject.
But Wu Feng's courage was clearly lacking. During the recent uproar caused by the Dragon and Phoenix Harmonious Song, most of the homo had already come into the open, yet Wu Feng had not even dared confess her true feelings to Ning Tian.
She was a defeated dog, utterly crushed!
If not for Lin Yun's overwhelming suppression, she would probably have already leapt up to strike at Lin Yun's knees.
