Chapter 649 Xiao Rao
quiet!
It was so quiet that even without paying special attention, you could clearly hear the sound of people inhaling.
The young man beside Ning Ruan was already stunned.
It took a long while before he responded.
Teacher Duan was silent for a long time, and then his dejected eyes looked at Ning Ruan for the first time.
But it was just a glance.
He then withdrew his gaze.
then……
Before anyone could come to their senses, he disappeared in a gust of wind just as he had come.
The cloud platform became an empty cloud platform again.
The disciples below were all stunned and turned to look at Ning Ruan.
That look seemed to say 'How dare you?'
"How dare you, Brother Ning?" the talkative boy next to him asked.
It's not just voice transmission.
He took a deep breath and spoke word by word: "Even Professor Huo never mentioned the word fusion of elements in class."
Ning Ruan: "...You mentioned it now."
The boy was stunned by the rebuke, "Anyway, you are too courageous."
"..."
Ning Ruan also knew that it was not appropriate.
But she couldn't do anything about it.
She did find out where Professor Huo lived, but she couldn't get in.
The other party was nowhere to be seen.
If I hadn't asked just now, he would have left directly after he finished the class.
There is a high possibility that she didn't even have the chance to speak.
"Are you Ning Ruan? The child of destiny?"
A voice full of indifference and impatience came from one of the disciples.
Ning Ruan looked in the direction of the sound.
Then she saw a cold-faced young man in a blue robe staring at her intently.
Ning Ruan was about to speak.
The young man in blue robe interrupted, "You shouldn't have come here, and you shouldn't have mentioned that incident. That incident has already passed. Are you trying to harm Teacher Huo by bringing it up now?"
Ning Ruan pondered for a moment and said, "Then I won't mention it next time."
Seeing her being so well-behaved, the young man in blue robe couldn't vent his anger. He could only hold it in his heart and said in a bad tone: "You'd better remember this."
Ning Ruan couldn't remember.
When everyone had dispersed, she quickly walked up to the young man and asked, "Will you sell me the sound transmission technique you mentioned earlier for spirit stones?"
"Sell!" the boy answered decisively.
Although the academy points are better, spirit stones are also indispensable.
The two made a deal on the spot.
Ning Ruan prepared to go directly to Teacher Huo's residence again.
By now the impression should have been left.
Maybe the other party will agree to meet her?
The young man followed closely behind Ning Ruan, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Ning, I haven't told you my name yet, right? My name is Xiao Rao, which means rich."
Ning Ruan's speed of flying the sword was not slow, "Please forgive me?"
The young man continued to follow, "Miss Ning, I think you're likely to get beaten if you talk like that."
"No, you almost got beaten for what you said in class just now."
"Do you know who the brother who was talking to you is?"
"He is Professor Huo's disciple. I mean a true disciple, one who participated in the research on element fusion."
"Why don't you ask anything else? Why did you ask such a taboo question?"
"Teacher Huo is still at the center of the storm, how dare I reply to you?"
"If he continues to study that, he might be forced to leave Qingyun College."
"Have you finished? Leave now, or I'll blow you up." The sword light stopped abruptly. Ning Ruan stood on the yellow sword, looking expressionlessly at the young man who called himself Xiao Rao.
It is hard not to be sensitive about the word "explosion".
Xiao Rao had heard of all of Ning Ruan's names.
Of course, I also know that when she says to blow it up, she really can do it.
Xiao Rao was ready to retreat, but just as he turned around, he suddenly stopped and said, "This direction is not the way back to Fuwu Mountain. Where are you going?"
Could it be the place he was thinking of?
Xiao Rao was stunned, "Fellow Daoist Ning, don't tell me you're going to look for Teacher Huo again."
Ning Ruan didn't answer her.
But actual actions confirmed Xiao Rao's guess.
The direction she flew on her sword... was exactly where Teacher Huo lived.
……
Teacher Huo also opened up a cave in a mountain within the Qingyun Academy.
This is not the first time Ning Ruan has come.
But there was a formation in the opponent's cave and she couldn't get in.
As for forceful destruction, regardless of whether she could do it or not, she was not rude enough to that extent.
"Why you again? My husband is not at home. Even if you come every day, he is not here."
Ning Ruan had just arrived when a child's childish voice was heard from the cave.
The tone was very dissatisfied.
Ning Ruan has gotten used to it.
This was the voice that spoke to her when she had taken time to come before.
"Oh, then please tell Teacher Huo that I want to learn element fusion."
"What kind of element fusion is this? Don't talk nonsense. Professor Huo is in seclusion and is not researching element fusion at all."
Ning Ruan felt that the guy inside not only sounded young, but also didn't seem to have a very high IQ.
"Didn't you say that Mr. Huo wasn't here?"
"..."
After a long while, the childish voice sounded unnaturally, "Anyway, he's not here, leave now."
It would be strange if he wasn't here.
I just don't want to see her.
But my purpose has been made clear, and that is enough.
and……
Coming here today, she can at least be sure of one thing.
That is, judging from the behavior of this little boy with a low IQ who is trying to cover up his mistakes, Teacher Huo is definitely still studying the fusion of elements.
Ning Ruan left.
But what she didn't know was that she had just left.
Someone came to Master Huo’s cave.
There is Vice President Yan who once presided over the freshman competition.
There is also Vice President Yang, who is responsible for receiving new students when they first arrive at Qingyun College.
And mentor Li Hanshan, who once traded rare materials and treasures for Ningruan lightning-struck wood in Fuyu Mountain.
Teacher Xu An, who brought Ning Ruan and his group back.
And two other mentors, who Ning Ruan had no impression of even if he was standing right here.
The six people in the group all looked unhappy at the moment.
Li Hanshan was the most helpless. Looking at the guy sitting in front of him and sipping tea as if no one was around, he didn't know what to say.
"Huo Wushang, can't you just give up? Even if you really don't give up, you can't involve the Child of Destiny. You should know how important the Child of Destiny is to our Qingyun Academy and the entire spiritual world."
Huo Wushang put down the teacup, raised his bearded face, and spread his hands indifferently, "When did I involve the Child of Destiny?"
"You didn't take the initiative to pull her over, but she became interested in your wrong path! Do you want to destroy her too?" The mentor who was speaking was full of anger, especially the look of Huo Wushang who didn't care about anything, which made him even angrier.
Huo Wushang raised his eyelids and said, "What does it have to do with me if she becomes interested?"
"Huo Wushang! What's your attitude?"
“That’s my attitude.”
"Huo Wushang!"
"I can hear you, but keep your voice down. You body cultivators are so noisy that it hurts my ears."
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Vice President Yang, who was in charge of all external affairs of Qingyun College, immediately said, "Well, since Professor Huo has no intention of involving that girl, let's end this matter here."
"Dean Yang, even if he doesn't bring in the Child of Destiny, what about the other disciples? Don't think I don't know that he is still researching that element fusion with his group of disciples."
If we were to ask who hates elemental fusion the most, Wang Xi would definitely be number one.
His most valued disciple, a genius who was both a physical cultivator and a dual-element spiritualist of water and earth, died from the fusion of elements.
