228: Chapter 165, Just a Bootlicker!
Tang Fei’s right hand habitually reached for the Dog Leg Knife at his waist as he turned around with a smile on his face, coming face to face with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Standing before him was a tall girl, whose legs were thin and long, easily reaching a height of 1.8 ters, appearing taller than Tang Fei who had grown rapidly in the past half year.
She wore the standard white student uniform of White Crane Academy, presumably a student of the academy as well.
Yet, Tang Fei had never seen her before, so she wasn’t a freshman who was admitted this year along with them.
The girl had a pale complexion, a frosty face, and her whole body exuded a chilly air, making her seem difficult to approach.
Tang Fei’s hand fell back down from his waist, his face full of confusion as he looked at the girl and asked, “Did you call for just now?”
“Yes,” the girl said expressionlessly.
“I think we don’t know each other?”
“I know you,” the girl spoke, “You are Tang Fei, the one who defeated Jian Yi from the Qin Family, part of the Seven Stars.”
“And you are?”
“Qin Shuang.”
“Oh,” Tang Fei realized.
Qin Shuang, one of the March mbers of the Seven Stars.
Her surna alone indicated that she likely belonged to the Qin Family, one of the nine major families.
As for her relationship with Qin Jianyi, it wasn’t hard to guess.
Tang Fei only knew the na from the March Seven Stars; he was not aware that there was a girl from the Qin Family who was cultivating and seeking Dao at White Crane Academy.
Qin Shuang had co to White Crane Academy to cultivate while Qin Jianyi had gone to the military for training.
What kind of grand strategy was the Qin Family planning?
Could it be that she had co to seek revenge for her family at this ti?
With her model-like figure of all legs and waist, Tang Fei was prepared to tell her first and foremost that his master was none other than Zhuanyuan Mingjing, the principal of White Crane Academy.
Regardless of how formidable and influential your Qin Family might be outside, here in the small plot of White Crane Academy, I am the Crown Prince…
Oh right, Crown Prince is Shen Xinglan; I am the Second Prince.
Tang Fei thought again, no wonder he and Shen Xinglan did not get along.
Since ancient tis, the struggle for succession among royal siblings had always been particularly fierce, capable of turning even the brains of dogs out.
Pondering, Tang Fei sized up Qin Shuang and asked, “Are you here to avenge Qin Jian?”
“Avenge?” Qin Shuang snorted coldly, “Our Qin Family mbers aren’t so petty.
The n who have lost face will find their own ways to reclaim it…”
“Then what do you want with ?” Tang Fei asked curiously, “I already have soone I like.”
Qin Shuang’s gaze turned sharp.
What did this bastard think of her as?
In her heart, aside from the Sword Dao, how could there be room for sothing like n?
She had sought out Tang Fei for the sake of the sword, to defeat the sword that had defeated Qin Jianyi.
She looked at Tang Fei and said solemnly, “Qin Jianyi was defeated by your swordsmanship, yet he couldn’t stop praising that sword of yours…
I too practice swordsmanship, and so, I want to have a match with you.”
“You’ve won,” Tang Fei said.
Qin Shuang was montarily stunned and asked, “What do you an?”
“There’s no need to compete; you’ve won,” Tang Fei said.
He certainly wouldn’t engage in a match over such a trivial reason.
Losing would be embarrassing, and winning would only attract more challengers…
Too exhausting.
Right now, he was busy pondering the philosophical questions of life, such as what his true path was…
Who had ti to deal with these kids?
He wished to be like his master, who could effortlessly unleash a sword strike and declare, “This is my Dao…”
The style maxed out, culminating at once.
As for what the Dao was, you’d have to figure it out yourself.
If you figured it out, it ant you possessed exceptional aptitude.
If you couldn’t, then you, as stupid as a pig, should get lost…
In the end, whether there was a Dao or not, only heaven, earth, you, and I would know.
Tang Fei had often wanted to ask his master what his Dao was and why he behaved irrationally, but fearing Xuanyuan Mingjing would think him docratically stupid, he forcefully held back.
After all, they had not known each other for long and were not very close.
A cold smirk appeared at the corner of Qin Shuang’s mouth as she mockingly said, “What?
You don’t dare?”
“Yes, I don’t dare,” Tang Fei nodded earnestly, “Senior sister Qin Shuang has been cultivating in White Crane Academy for many years, and your cultivation realm is far above mine.
Competing with you in swordsmanship would only result in consecutive losses and an utter defeat.”
“You…”
Qin Shuang’s face grew colder, not expecting that the man who had received endless praise from Qin Jianyi would be such a two-faced person.
Impervious to both pressure and persuasion.
Did he not possess a man’s competitive spirit?
Did he lack a cultivator’s dignity?
Her roommate said n liked to show off their rits in front of won, especially the beautiful ones…
She began to doubt her own attractiveness.
Although she had never cared about it before.
Qin Shuang t such a man for the first ti and truly felt powerless against him.
Tang Fei patted his stomach and said, “I just had a full al, brain’s low on oxygen.
If there’s nothing else, I really need to head back and get so sleep.”
After saying that, he turned to leave.
“Tang Fei…” Qin Shuang called out again.
Tang Fei turned around, his gaze resolute as he addressed Qin Shuang, “What’s the difference between conceding now and conceding during the competition?
I’m not afraid to tell you, a competition I intend to lose—nobody can make win…”
“…”
Qin Shuang’s chest heaved.
It was the first ti this ice queen had felt such humiliation.
He hadn’t used a single swear word, so why did she feel so hurt?
Her spite soared, blood boiled, how did she really want to hit soone?
“Everything good now?
If so, I’m leaving.” Tang Fei waved his hand, and this ti, he really left.
“Tang Fei, what will it take for you to have a match with ?” Qin Shuang shouted.
“Wait till I find my reason,” said Tang Fei.
“Reason?” Qin Shuang muttered to herself.
What reason?
Should she help him find it?
When Tang Fei returned to the courtyard, Chen Tianqi had already co back from eating.
Seeing Tang Fei, he imdiately went over and asked, “How co I didn’t see you in the cafeteria?
Did you have dinner at the headmaster’s?”
“Yeah,” Tang Fei casually bragged about his superiority, “Master invited to stay for dinner, to try his disciple’s cooking.”
“Disciple?” Chen Tianqi chewed on that for a mont, then his eyes widened in disbelief, “Shen Xinglan?
Shen Xinglan cooked for you?”
Tang Fei’s heart swelled with satisfaction; he pretended it was only natural and said, “What’s so surprising?
Last ti I cooked, this ti he did… Although his cooking isn’t quite on my level, it’s pretty good nonetheless.
I’d call it refreshingly delicious.”
“…”
Chen Tianqi felt like the pheasant leg he ate at noon suddenly wasn’t tasty anymore, a bitter taste filling his mouth.
“By the way, I wanted to ask you sothing,” Tang Fei said.
“Do you know Qin Shuang?”
“Qin Shuang?
The Shiva?”
“Shiva?”
“Yeah, don’t you find her exceptionally cold?” Chen Tianqi said, “Because her na has the character for frost, and she’s proud and aloof, always on her own, looking down on everyone… So everyone calls her Shiva.”
“Oh,” Tang Fei nodded, “Because she’s unpopular, everyone gave her that nickna…
trying to isolate her, right?”
“Why would you think that?” Chen Tianqi looked incredulously at Tang Fei, “Don’t you know how popular she is?
The elder disciples at school all really like her, the n lining up to chase her could stretch from the first courtyard to ours…”
“Isn’t that just being a fawning follower?” Tang Fei said.
“Always restless for what they can’t obtain?”
“Who are you calling a fawning follower?” Chen Tianqi, enraged, said, “I once caught a glimpse of her from afar and thought she indeed has the pride to back it up…
she’s got the figure, the looks, and more importantly, she cos from a prestigious family…
Do you know which family she’s from?”
“If I’m not mistaken…” Tang Fei looked at Chen Tianqi, pondering for a mont before saying, “She’s from the leading family among the nine major families, the Shen Family?”
“…”
Chen Tianqi just didn’t want to talk to Tang Fei anymore.
But he still had questions to ask, so he reluctantly stayed by his side, saying, “Why are you suddenly asking about her?
You’re not interested in her too, are you?”
“Not really,” Tang Fei said.
“Oh.” Chen Tianqi visibly relaxed.
“It’s mainly because she seems interested in ,” Tang Fei sighed lightly.
My good looks are a curse…
“No way?
How could she possibly fancy you?” Chen Tianqi exclaid in shock.
Then realized how offensive his words sounded and hurriedly explained, “Bro, I don’t an it like that…
but you should know what I an…”
“I don’t understand,” Tang Fei said expressionlessly.
“…”
Worried that Tang Fei might actually be angry, Chen Tianqi put on a smiley face and explained, “What I an is, there are so many people chasing Qin Shuang…
even though you are exceptional and even taken as a disciple by the headmaster, you two aren’t familiar…
why would she suddenly take an interest in you?”
“Can’t my face inspire love at first sight?”
“As brothers, I really can’t follow up on that…” Chen Tianqi had an expression like he was constipated.
“She challenged to a sword fight,” Tang Fei stopped teasing fawning follower Chen Tianqi and said.
“She blocked my path, challenging to a sword fight.”
Pausing, Tang Fei added with lingering fear, “She wouldn’t use this as an excuse just to get close to , would she?”
“You’re overthinking it.” Hearing Tang Fei’s reason, Chen Tianqi imdiately relaxed, his voice full of joy, “Qin Shuang loves swordsmanship; her style is called ‘Spring Snow’…”
“This sword style is extrely yin and cold, that’s why her personality is so icy.
It’s said that she finds it hard to be interested in n, usually doesn’t even talk to them…”
Tang Fei looked puzzled at Chen Tianqi, “She doesn’t like n…
why are you so happy?”
Chen Tianqi, slightly embarrassed, said, “That way, she doesn’t like , nor you…
as long as she doesn’t have soone she likes, don’t I still have a chance?”
“…”
Indeed, a total fawning follower!
