"That's a good one. I've been appreciating the flowers here all along, when did I ever see your master?"
Long Yi said indifferently, "Could he be out on a date with some little lover? Chu Zhou is quite familiar to him, after all!"
"My master has no other acquaintances in Chu Zhou!"
Gu Wen said coldly, "I sensed a martial aura by the Jiangjing Lake, and it was quite strong. It seemed like there were traces of a fight!"
"Then you've truly wronged me. I've been in this courtyard the entire time and have never left!"
Long Yi smiled faintly, "If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. If I truly wanted to deal with your master, I would have done it openly. I have no interest in dealing with him in secret!"
"I hope what you say is true, otherwise, I will never let you off easily!"
Gu Wen threatened, preparing to go out and search again. However, at that very moment, Lu Fan walked in from outside. Although he was forcing himself to stand, Gu Wen could tell at a glance that Lu Fan was severely injured.
"Master, what happened to you!" Gu Wen hurried forward.
"I'm fine. I just had a brief skirmish and sustained a minor injury!" Lu Fan waved his hand.
"Who is it that could injure master!" Gu Wen was shocked.
He knew very well that with Lu Fan's current strength, he was considered a top expert among many kingdoms. Anyone who could injure Lu Fan would certainly not be an ordinary person.
"It's someone from Cang Long Academy!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "One day, I will make them pay!"
"Mr. Lu, that's quite a statement. What evidence do you have to prove it was someone from Cang Long Academy?"
Long Yi said softly, "Many of Cang Long Academy's sisters are not in Chu Zhou. How could they possibly injure you!"
"If I say it was Cang Long Academy, I am absolutely correct!"
Lu Fan's expression was grave, as the other party had already admitted it.
"If Mr. Lu insists on thinking that way, I have nothing more to say!" Long Yi shrugged.
"I never expected you to have some status in Cang Long Academy!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, "That person said he wanted to personally snatch the Star Meteorite and take credit for your accomplishment. He even called you 'Senior Sister' repeatedly, and quite sincerely at that!"
Long Yi's body trembled slightly. If that was indeed the case, it must have been someone from Cang Long Academy. She hadn't expected someone from Cang Long Academy to dare to act without her permission.
"Master, let me help you back to your room to rest!" Gu Wen said, "You mustn't overexert yourself, especially when you are severely injured!"
"I'm fine!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, "But some people are probably getting anxious. If their credit is snatched away, they won't have resources when they return to Cang Long Academy. This is no small matter!"
Facing Lu Fan's words, Long Yi's expression darkened. As a disciple of Cang Long Academy, and its senior disciple, she would not allow such a thing to happen.
After Long Yi left the courtyard, Lu Fan let out a cold laugh, "It seems my guess was correct. Cang Long Academy is not an impenetrable fortress either!"
"Master, by saying that just now, were you trying to sow discord among them!" Gu Wen said clearly, "But I always feel that as long as he stays by our side, he's ultimately a ticking time bomb!"
"With my current strength, I can't fight him yet!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, "The black-clothed woman just now was clearly stronger than me. Long Yi is probably even more formidable!"
"If that's the case, what should we do?" Gu Wen frowned.
"We'll deal with whatever comes. If all else fails, we'll hand over the Star Meteorite to him!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "As long as the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn. Given time, I will make them pay one day!"
"Master is right!" Gu Wen nodded solemnly.
When it was late at night, in a bar, Long San was drinking, looking dejected. He could have obtained the Star Meteorite today, but it was just a little short.
If he hadn't been hesitant, he would have already returned to the academy to report.
As he was feeling down, a figure appeared in the bar, staring intently at him. The figure then approached, "Long San, you've got quite a nerve, daring to defy my orders?"
"Senior Sister!" Su Dan Novel Network
Long San quickly got up, "Why are you here?"
"I was about to ask you, why are you in Chu Zhou?"
Long Yi said coldly, "Could it be for the Star Meteorite."
"Senior Sister, you misunderstand. How would I dare to covet the Star Meteorite."
Long San said repeatedly, "I came to Chu Zhou this time just for a casual visit. Didn't Senior Sister say last time? Since we finally got out, we should naturally enjoy this mortal life!"
"Is that so?"
Long Yi narrowed her eyes, a faint cold glint appearing, "You should know very well that I detest being lied to, especially so earnestly!"
"Senior Sister, I truly didn't lie to you, everything I said is the truth!" Long San spoke again, "If Senior Sister doesn't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
"Then where did the injuries on your body come from?" Long Yi smiled faintly, "Don't tell me you were bullied by some man!"
Long San's face darkened. He finally realized that Lu Fan must have complained, which is why Long Yi came here.
"Senior Sister, when we left Cang Long Academy, all the mentors said that as long as we could bring back the Star Meteorite, any disciple would receive resources," Long San said frankly.
"So you intended to defy my orders?"
Long Yi smiled faintly, "You should know that in Cang Long Academy, as long as your strength is sufficient, you can do whatever you want. Even if fellow disciples kill each other, the mentors won't care!"
"Senior Sister, I was wrong!"
Long San quickly got up and knelt before Long Yi. He knew very well that if Long Yi wanted to kill him, she could do so in an instant. What was more terrifying was that even if he returned to Cang Long Academy, no one would question it.
"I don't think you know your mistake at all!"
Long Yi's expression was icy, "To dare to be disobedient behind my back will lead to death in the end!"
Long San was covered in cold sweat. He had already experienced Long Yi's ruthlessness and dared not be negligent in the slightest.
"As long as Senior Sister spares my life, I will do anything you ask, even be your beast of burden, from now on!" Long San pleaded, his expression appearing very sincere.
"Since that's the case, I'll give you another chance. If there's a next time, I will never forgive you!" Long Yi said coldly, "I know you have connections with some mentors in the academy, but don't forget, even if the mentors personally intervene, they may not be able to do anything to me!"
Long San's body trembled. How could he not know these things? To be called the number one disciple of Cang Long Academy, the talent and strength required were immeasurable.
"Thank you, Senior Sister, for sparing my life!" Long San prostrated himself on the ground, his body trembling continuously.
At this very moment, Long Yi had already left, not lingering here. Her purpose for coming here this time was mainly to warn Long San that in the face of overwhelming strength, some matters must be obeyed.
Watching Long Yi's receding back, Long San's eyes turned sharp.
