The Adventures Of The Young Master

"Let's go." Jin Rou chuckled after seeing Goldenchild's expression.

"To where?" Goldenchild asked. He felt something ominous as he asked this question. Perhaps it was a foreshadowing that something wouldn't happen good.

And most of the times, his gut was right and spot on. Needless to say, he had already prepared for something like that.

Jin Rou didn't answer his question and just walked away. The crowd dispersed and gave way to them after which. Their gazes were weird as if they didn't know what to say. The way they looked at this ordinary mortal was no longer that of a condescending one.

As Jin Rou and Goldenchild disappeared, the news of what happened spread quickly like wildfire. The upper echelons of the academy were also alerted of the matter.

Furthermore, Teacher Fairy was a witness of the first news so the credibility of the news shot up a level higher.

"Lux has been cursed by Ravenray Blacksmith's sword?" An ancestor of the academy was surprised, "I thought that we have already removed the curse of that?"

"That's what I thought too." Another ancestor sighed, "I even double checked it a few years ago to see if there is still a lingering curse inside the sword and I didn't find anything of that kind. What's happening?"

They knew Ravenray's personality very well. He was the type that wouldn't let others use the weapons he made easily. Thus, he put many curses in his product swords. So, one had to remove these curses first before the weapon could be used.

"That eccentric blacksmith..." Ancestor Bale couldn't help but rub his temples. Things were about to go out of hand if not for the mysterious person who warned Lux and healed a part of him, "If Lux is really in danger, that old master of his will come looking for trouble with us."

Old Yuan Blacksmith was known to love and spoil Lux so much. Thus, the upper echelons of the academy knew that if something happened to Lux while inside of their premises, Old Yuan Blacksmith would surely use his connections to pull troubles for the academy. He was a hateful person, after all.

"Who is this mysterious person?" Ancestor Dan spoke with curiosity, "I heard that this person even entered that forbidden place yet the fatal traps aren't triggered."

They didn't see the person itself but heard about what happened because of Teacher Fairy's report.

"That, I don't know either." Teacher Fairy shook her head, "He is an unfamiliar one for me even as my other identity."

"We have to look into this matter more and seriously." Ancestor Bale said with a grave tone, "It's obvious that he is an expert and we have to distinguish if he is an enemy or a friend of the academy."

The others nodded. For now, they would keep an eye on the person and see if he was someone they needed to remove in the academy or someone they could let stay in their premises.

Jin Rou and Goldenchild finally reached a certain place. It was an old dormitory of the academy that wasn't being used now. It was just part of the ruin that didn't seem to be recorded in history.

In front of this old dorm, a broken chariot was there. It's broken and could be barely distinguish, however its aura of pride and honor was still there, seeming to sing the song of ages.

Goldenchild didn't know that there was a place of this kind in the academy. He thought that he already knew everything but it seemed that his knowing of the academy barely scratched the surface.

Jin Rou walked over and touched the broken chariot. After that, Han Li's memories resurfaced in his mind. This was Han Li's one of his best war chariots that he used when sweeping the Nine Heavens.

The chariot glowed a little after being touched. It looked like it was still alive and responded to Jin Rou's touch.

Jin Rou shook his head and softly said, "Take a rest now. You have already done your job for Han Li."

Iron Warrior War Chariot. It was the name of this broken chariot which made many monarchs fear it and flee upon seeing this. In a certain era, Han Li used the chariot to sweep and eradicate the threats looming Nine Heavens.

The chariot glowed once again and dimmed. Jin Rou smiled and touched it once again. He was about to walk past this when a voice suddenly interrupted him, "You are indeed a magnificent being, even knowing this unknown place."

Goldenchild looked at the newcomer and was surprised. Teacher Fairy? What was she doing here?

Jin Rou wasn't fazed that this woman was here and said, "I'm not surprised that you're here."

"My eyes have been watching you and for sure with your capabilities, you have known jt since I started it." Teacher Fairy spoke with calmness like the sea.

"And what brings you here?" Jin Rou spoke and seized the fairy, "If you want to become my maid, hmm, you barely qualified but it can do for the meantime."

Teacher Fairy's face froze as she heard this. No one had ever dared to say to her that she'd be maid for someone else! However, she immediately hid it and said, "With my meager capabilities, how could I make do to be your maid? I'm ashamed."

"Smart." Jin Rou praised the fairy. This woman knew how to adapt to situations even without being told of what to do, "However, since I said you barely qualified, you still qualified. Thus, I don't mind having your as my temporary maid."

Teacher Fairy felt her fists itching to punch someone. It wasn't that her tolerance level was lacking. Jin Rou was just adept in provoking a person to the point of their nerves bulging from infuriation.

Nevertheless, the fairy still tried to calm as possible. Usually, she was never affected by taunts yet this ordinary man had an obvious effects in her for some reason she couldn't understand.

Seeing the expression of the other party, Jin Rou couldn't help but laugh a bit.. It was entertaining and wouldn't mind teasing this woman more.
