Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It turned out that ng Hao had been disabled by the attack of the demon bats on the airship, since his right shoulder was severely injured. Because of the disability, he couldn’t use swords anymore. He was right-handed, so he couldn’t use swords with his left hand, either. Like this, the man who used to be a genius beca diocre, even worse than an average man.
Of course he wouldn’t be able to join the Swordquest School, but he was reluctant to go back in that state, too, so he just stayed in Ninedragons, idling around.
“Where are your two friends?” Jiang Chen asked out of curiosity.
ng Hao had a painful expression on his face when Jiang Chen brought up this topic. He finished the liquor in his glass and started to tell Jiang Chen the story.
When he finally finished, Jiang Chen said, “In another word, those two abandoned you and beca a couple after you saved them at such a great cost?”
“Ye Xiu was never my girl friend. We didn’t have anything to do with each other.” ng Hao forced himself to smile, feeling a bitterness that he couldn’t even describe.
Jiang Chen recalled the way that Ye Xiu had looked at ng Hao when they were on the ship. Her look was so tender and amorous.
But Jiang Chen didn’t question it further since ng Hao was obviously in pain. He just said, “All right. I’ll cure your arm.”
ng Hao was in the middle of raising his glass. He beca dumbfounded when he heard this. He looked at Jiang Chen gratefully.
Jiang Chen smiled lightly and stopped talking. He had already gained ng Hao’s trust.
“Let’s start.”
To ng Hao’s surprise, Jiang Chen didn’t even need a special place to do it. He took off his outerwear as soon as they left the restaurant and started to check ng Hao’s injury.
Of course.
Jiang Chen shook his head while he helped ng Hao remove his dressings.
He was there when ng Hao had been injured. At that mont, he hadn’t thought it was a big deal. That was why he believed a doctor in Ninedragons would be enough to deal with ng Hao’s injury.
He hadn’t expected that the doctors here would disable a patient. Fortunately, ng Hao had run into him. Otherwise he would have no cure, and his whole life would be ruined.
There wasn’t much to say about the treatnt. With Jiang Chen’s help, ng Hao felt his numb arm burning. He was about to shout because he couldn’t endure more when he heard a “click,” as if so dislocated thing had been put back into the right place.
“Amazing!” ng Hao tried to move his shoulder and was pleasantly surprised. He thought it would take a lot of ti to heal it, but the treatnt worked imdiately.
They went back to the restaurant. Jiang Chen sat down opposite to ng Hao calmly, as if he hadn’t done anything special for him. He asked ng Hao, “Has the recruitnt of the Swordquest school already ended?”
“Yes. And most of the sects and schools that I want to join have stopped recruiting disciples. I have to wait another year,” ng Hao smiled bitterly.
His right arm had recovered. The other things were not so important anymore. At least he had stopped feeling ashad of himself and could go back ho.
But Jiang Chen surprised him again.
“If you don’t mind, you can co to the Natural Law School with , as my attendant. Once I beco a senior disciple of the Natural Law School, I will be able to recomnd you to the Swordquest School.”
Jiang Chen had learned recently that the disciples of the Natural Law School could take attendants there with them.
After one beca a senior disciple, they would live on a mountain peak alone, with servants taking care of them.
The advantage to being Jiang Chen’s attendant was that once he beca a senior disciple, ng Hao would have the opportunity to join the Swordquest School with Jiang Chen’s recomndation, and ng Hao had no doubts at all as to whether Jiang Chen could beco a senior disciple or not.
He had heard of Jiang Chen’s performance at the trial grounds.
Since he had t Jiang Chen in desperation, ng Hao couldn’t help but cry out, “Thank you!” It was the silver lining to his dismal situation earlier.
“Start packing then. I’m heading for the Natural Law School today,” Jiang Chen said.
He appreciated ng Hao’s performance on the Cloudbuster. That was why he lended ng Hao a hand.
Jiang Chen went to the inn where ng Hao was living. Embarrassingly, they ran into Ye Xiu and Shi Tian.
The couple was snuggled up together. Ye Xiu was embarrassed when she saw ng Hao coming, but Shi Tian grinned and pulled her even closer to him.
Shi Tian had been in high spirits since he qualified for the Swordquest School. Especially after Ye Xiu threw herself at him, he beca even more arrogant.
Before, he only regarded himself as ng Hao’s follower and had never thought that one day he would be with ng Hao’s girl.
Ye Xiu, of course, didn’t qualify for the Swordquest School. That was why she chose to stay with Shi Tian, so that she could stay in the Swordquest School.
“Where have you been recently, ng Hao?” Shi Tian called his na directly. He had always called him brother before.
ng Hao looked dejected and stayed silent. He went into his room and started to pack.
“ng Hao, are you going back?” Ye Xiu asked in a low voice.
“That’s the wise thing to do. By the way, please tell my parents the good news,” Shi Tian went to ng Hao’s room and said to him.
Ye Xiu pulled his sleeve, trying to stop him, but Shi Tian warned her with a look. She didn’t dare speak anymore and just stood there silently.
“No, I’m not going back,” ng Hao looked at Shi Tian after packing everything up.
“Then where are you going? Where can you go in your current condition?” Shi Tian taunted him.
“I wouldn’t have been like this if I hadn’t tried to save you two.”
ng Hao would never have spoken like this before, but it was different at the mont, since his right arm had recovered.
“I didn’t beg you to save . You told us to lie down. We were able to fight at that mont, but you wanted to be the hero. Who do you bla for that?” Shi Tian was shaless.
“Cut it out. I don’t want to speak with you. Go away,” ng Hao made a disgusted face, internally asking himself why he had made friends with such a terrible guy.
“I won’t go away if you don’t tell where you’re going.”
Shi Tian reached out his hand to stop ng Hao.
“You have to even if you don’t want to!” ng Hao had run out of patience. He suddenly drew out his sword with his right hand smoothly. The brilliant sword ray forced Shi Tian to step back.
“Your arm? Has your arm recovered?!” Shi Tian exclaid.
He wasn’t happy to see this.
He took a look at Ye Xiu, whose face was unreadable, and said, “Even so, you can’t join the Swordquest School now. I’ll have the entire year to pass you.”
“I’m afraid I have to disappoint you, because I am headed for the Natural Law School right now,” ng Hao said.
“You’re headed for the Natural Law School? But how?” Both Ye Xiu and Shi Tian were shocked.
“With .” Jiang Chen ca striding over. He had heard the conversation and couldn’t stand Shi Tian at all.
“ng Hao will improve rapidly at the Natural Law School. After a year, you won’t even be able to look up to him.”
This was obvious. ng Hao had always been more excellent than Shi Tian, and the Natural Law School was way better than the Swordquest School.
Ye Xiu regretted her decisions. She hadn’t expected ng Hao to recover one day.
When he saw this woman’s face, Jiang Chen felt ng Hao and he were experiencing the sa emotions.
Ye Xiu reminded him of Su Qian, and Su Qian reminded him of the pretty woman in wedding dress.
Are all won the sa? Seemingly in love, but they suddenly turn hostile at the drop of a hat?
“Let’s go.”
ng Hao felt better when he saw Shi Tian’s look. He left the inn with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen let out a sigh and looked up to the sky.
The channel of the Planes World was up in the sky.
“Sacred Zone, I’ll be back!”
Jiang Chen swore to himself that he would find that woman and settle all of their old scores!
