Chapter 762: Chapter 762: If she dies_1
Jing Jing noticed Qin Sisi’s unusual gaze and sothing apologized: "Sorry about that, I might have said too much."
Qin Sisi waved her hands hurriedly and said: "No, no, you’re very good, you’ve made
see you in a new light."
"Really?" The color rushed to Jing Jing’s cheeks, her eyes are filled with joy, seemingly she has seldom received such praise.
Qin Sisi nodded sharply and affird: "Absolutely."
Jing Jing smiled shyly and hesitated, "Actually, I’ve never shared these things with anyone before. I don’t know why, but I seem to talk a lot more when I’m around you."
Qin Sisi looked into Jing Jing’s eyes and said warmly, "I should be the one thanking you. The Demon Sacred Realm is so unfamiliar to , but you were my first friend here."
"Friend?" Jing Jing repeated.
She had grew up in the Demon Sacred Realm, but the term "friend" felt sowhat foreign to her.
She had sisters, but she left ho at nine to study magic at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and their relationship drifted apart.
She had classmates, but there were only three girls in her class - Ya Ning, cold-blooded by nature; ng Yu, cunning and devious - she kept them both at arm’s length.
With Qin Sisi, however, Jing Jing had a real sense of what friendship felt like for the first ti.
"Let’s go, let
show you around the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle." Realizing that she had finally made a friend, Jing Jing felt a surge of excitent. She took Qin Sisi by the hand and led her towards the lush grasslands in the mountains.
As Jing Jing guided Qin Sisi through the sightseeing tour and foraged for Spirit Grass, Ye You made his way to Tianhuan Mountain.
Teacher Yusha and a student by her side greeted Ye You. She told him that all the teachers from the Heaven Academy had arrived and were waiting for him in the underground conference room.
Ye You nodded and walked towards the entrance of the underground conference room.
The door to the entrance closed automatically after Ye You entered. Yusha had cast a spell on the door to prevent unauthorized entries.
Regular etings were held in conventional eting rooms. Only matters of utmost importance and confidentiality were discussed in the underground conference room.
Inside the room, a long staircase extended downward, the light dim. But for Ye You, it was no hindrance at all. His violet eyes shimred in the darkness, resembling gemstones.
Ye You descended the stairs, his steps firm and steady, echoing his current state of mind.
This was sothing he had to do, an integral part of his plan. It was sothing that could determine the future for him and Qin Sisi.
The room gradually started to light up as Ye You proceeded further down the stairs. Small square trays began to appear on the walls, each displaying a radiant Luminous Pearl.
Ahead was a colossal square door. Ye You paused, took a deep breath, and walked through the doorway.
The space beyond was vast, a large room with a giant round table in the middle. Eleven teachers from the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle Heaven Academy took their seats in turn.
The teachers were:
Gold Attribute Magic Teacher Wu Duo,
Wood Attribute Magic Teacher Ru Lin,
Water Attribute Magic Teacher Yin Xi,
Fire Attribute Magic Teacher Huo Huan,
Earth Attribute Magic Teacher Tai Tan,
Wind Attribute Magic Teacher Di Sa,
Thunder Attribute Magic Teacher Wuting,
Illusion Technique Teacher Yusha,
Ice Attribute Magic Teacher Ge Lanxue,
Music Magic Teacher Yi Rou,
Alchemy Teacher Mo Liu.
Teacher Yusha sat at head of the table; an empty chair across from her was ant for Ye You.
He walked over, pulled out the vacant chair and sat down, returning the gaze of all eleven teachers.
"Go ahead, why have you called us here?" asked Yusha. Her voice was hoarse now that she was pushing eighty, and her face was hidden behind a veil. But her eyes were sharp, their intense stare locked on Ye You.
Ye You t her gaze and said in a clear, firm voice, "With my assistance, Qin Sisi has been promoted to a Magic Instructor. I’d like her to study magic at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle Heaven Academy under your personal tutelage."
"What level of Magic Instructor is she? Junior, mid-level, or high-level?" asked Yusha calmly.
"Junior," Ye You readily declared Qin Sisi’s exact level.
Many teachers looked surprised.
Yusha huffed, "Ye You, the Heaven Academy only accepts high-level Magic Instructors. It has been this way for years. Have you forgotten?"
Ye You responded smoothly, "I haven’t. As the Prince of the Jiuxi Royal Family, I am making a special request to the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle."
At this, everyone’s faces changed involuntarily. Ye You had pulled rank!
During his years studying at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, he’d never made a special request for himself. But now, for a woman, he’d invoked his status as the Prince of the Jiuxi Royal Family.
The usually impetuous Teacher Wuting spoke, "The Heavenly Magic God’s Castle has more than one mber of the Jiuxi Royal Family. To open up the Heaven Academy for soone unqualified could provoke criticism and tarnish the reputation of Heavenly Magic God’s Castle."
Ye You was prepared, and imdiately replied, "I understand. We should promptly train excellent talents, select outstanding disciples from the Earth Academy, whether they’re junior or mid-level magic instructors, and form an entire class. This way, no one can have anything to say."
A few of the teachers nodded slightly in approval of Ye You’s proposal.
Yusha’s eyes flickered as she stared at Ye You, her tone serious, "Is she really that important to you?"
Ye You’s face was earnest. He spoke clearly, word for word, "She is... the woman I love, the only woman I want in my life. Today, I entrust her to you all, but I must make myself clear."
If a single hair on her head is hard, I’ll shave my head bald.
If she loses a hand, I will sever both of mine.
If she dies, I will follow her, after avenging my father and defeating Tian Xiaozi."
Everyone looked shocked, staring at Ye You in disbelief.
Yusha narrowed her eyes sharply and asked accusingly, "Are you threatening ?"
Ye You t her challenging gaze, answering in a clear voice: "Yes."
With a slap, Yusha’s palm slamd onto the table. Her eyes burned with rage: "Good boy! Your years of travel and training have turned you into a hopeless romantic! Do you know, I can completely refuse your unreasonable request?"
Ye You’s look darkened, his voice dropping to a slow, chilling reply: "You’re welco to try."
"You..." At nearly eighty, Teacher Yusha considered herself a true master, calm, equanimous, detached from the material world. But today, Ye You had her nearly losing her composure.
