Zhao Ya has left.
In the darkness of the night, his body technique was as fast as an extremely light swallow, swift and silent.
After he left, three figures appeared on the roof of a two-story building in the distance.
"I must say, this guy’s lightweight skill is really impressive, isn’t it, Junior Sister Gu?" A young scholar shook his folding fan and laughed softly.
The woman didn’t respond.
She was from the Mirror Moon Sect, one of the three major sects of the Capital City, and was most adept at lightweight body technique.
But even she had to admit, Zhao Ya’s lightweight skill was truly remarkable.
"Have we been staying in this remote place for so many days just to observe this guy all day?" The woman looked at the honest-looking man and said.
The honest man didn’t even raise his eyelids, continuously staring at the big tree in the distance, and said lightly.
"Junior Sister Gu, if you have something to do, you can leave on your own. There’s no need to stay with me in Yunxiao County."
The woman was momentarily choked with anger.
She indeed thought about leaving on her own, but she was really unwilling.
After all, she never understood what this genius disciple of the Golden Saber Institute, Wang Tiancheng, was trying to do in Yunxiao County.
Was it just to see how this direct lineage member of the Wei Family, Wei Hongbin, suppressed and divided the Martial Artist factions to take control of the situation?
Don’t joke.
The time of these great sects’ geniuses is very precious; if there’s no profit, they wouldn’t even bother to take another look. How could they waste time here?
So he must have other motives; it’s just that I don’t know them yet.
And if I just leave, wouldn’t it be giving up halfway, wasting all the effort and waiting from before?
Thinking of this, the woman smiled slightly.
"Senior Brother Wang was joking. What could I possibly have to do? When I left, I told the elder of my sect that I was going to walk the world this time to temper my temperament, so I can go back anytime."
Wang Tiancheng was unmoved.
As someone from the Golden Saber Institute and part of the Martial Artist force of the three sects, two institutes, and one villa in the Capital City, he understood the Mirror Moon Sect, or rather, the way this Mirror Moon Sect True Disciple, Gu Chaoyue, did things too well.
Simply put, she was an extreme egoist; she would find a way to exploit anything that was beneficial to her.
Including coming to Yunxiao County this time.
Just to see if she could gain some advantage in this Beast Tide, Gu Chaoyue traveled a long way to come here.
Now she is even more afraid of missing out on any advantage, preferring to waste time rather than leave.
Wang Tiancheng knew this well but didn’t expose her.
After all, all her waiting would ultimately lead to nothing.
What he wanted was not the cultivation resources she thought of.
The young scholar on the side also sensed the awkward atmosphere and hurriedly tried to mediate.
"Senior Brother Wang, what should we do? Should we head back to the inn now...?"
Wang Tiancheng suddenly gestured for silence and then led the two into the darkness, quietly pointing to the big tree in the distance.
The young scholar and Gu Chaoyue followed his pointing direction and indeed saw a dark figure appear on the tree again, unknowingly when.
It was Zhao Ya.
Returning once more, Zhao Ya was standing on the treetop, surveying the surroundings.
He had just pretended to leave, but in fact, he was hiding in the dark, watching to see if the person spying in the shadows would appear again.
But he waited a long time without seeing anyone, unwilling to give up, Zhao Ya simply showed himself again and searched once more.
As a result, naturally, he returned empty-handed.
"Looks like they’re really gone." Zhao Ya mumbled softly, then leapt into the darkness again, a few flickers and he disappeared.
After he left, the young scholar hiding in the dark couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn, this kid...."
He just wanted to say that this kid was really cunning, but unexpectedly, Wang Tiancheng suddenly covered his mouth.
At the same time, Zhao Ya returned once more, carefully surveying the surroundings again, confirming that there was really no one in the darkness, then frowned and pondered for a moment, turned, and hurriedly left.
After he left, Wang Tiancheng let go of his hand.
The young scholar was already too speechless to complain, he could only look toward the direction Zhao Ya left with an expression as if he’d seen a ghost.
Just how cautious was this guy, returning twice in succession? If it wasn’t for Wang Tiancheng’s calmness, they might have been discovered by him.
"Alright, he’s really gone this time." Wang Tiancheng said.
"Back at the academy, the master’s and senior uncles always praised me for being smart." The young scholar suddenly sighed.
"I have always thought so too, until I met you, Senior Brother Wang. It was only then that I knew there are always people better than oneself beyond one’s knowledge."
"In terms of talent, I’m not as good as you; in terms of aptitude, I can’t catch up. But I didn’t mind too much because the Golden Saber Institute’s geniuses are not just for show. What I never expected was that in this small Yunxiao County, a small Fourth Realm Martial Artist almost exposed my presence."
Upon saying this, the young scholar looked ashamed.
"It seems I underestimated the heroes of the world; I’m far from being as clever as I thought. After returning to the academy this time, I must retreat and cultivate diligently, never to be proud and complacent again."
Looking at the earnest young scholar, Wang Tiancheng suddenly smiled.
"Junior Brother Xu, you’re too modest, as a True Disciple of Wunian Academy, you are already excellent."
"No, there’s still a long way to go. I must work hard immediately, otherwise, let alone keeping up with you, Senior Brother Wang, I might not even surpass this Zhao Ya in a few years."
Xu Niannian said very seriously, feeling that his Martial Artist’s literary mind was becoming more and more crystalline and transparent.
