Chapter 23: Xi Yang House

  On the second day, Li Luo went to Nanfeng Academy as usual.

  As he entered the teaching field of the Second Academy, he could clearly feel that the originally lively voices inside the field became quieter, with curious and admiring gazes cast towards Li Luo.

  Li Luo, in the past, was actually not bad at all in terms of strength, and was only second to Zhao Kuo. But to be honest, other students had more sympathy for him than respect or admiration.

  After all, in their view, even if Li Luos current strength is not bad, he is still an empty phase, which means that his potential is limited. As long as they are given some time, they will eventually catch up with Li Luo slowly.

  Yesterday, Li Luo suddenly revealed his true form and defeated three of the Baiyun Three in one go, making them realize that Li Luo was indeed different.

  Although the five-product face is not considered high, it is absolutely enough. This, combined with Li Luos innate talent for physiognomy, will make Li Luo a notable figure in Nanfeng Academy in the future, even if he cant return to his peak period.

  So now no one dares to have any sympathy for Li Luo, although they also dont understand that as the young master of Luolan Manor, what qualifications do they have to sympathize with him?

  And when Li Luo walked by, students along the way smiled and greeted him: "Brother Luo."

  There was also a girl who giggled and said: "Luo Ge is so handsome today."

  In response to these greetings, Li Luo smiled and replied, then returned to his own position. Zhao Kuo, on the other hand, stared at him intently with piercing eyes.

  "Youre a man, cant you look at me differently?" Li Luo frowned and said.

  Zhao Kuai smiled and said with a pretended sigh: "It seems that I, the number one person in the second institute, will have to step down from now on."

  Li Luo said in a bad mood: "Who cares about this thing, just look further ahead."

  "Far away? Then youd better work hard. When the time comes for you to make our Nanfeng Academys men shine, well all cheer for you." Zhao Kuo said.

  "What does it mean?"

  "Did you know, the other academies in Tianxu County have always said that our Nanfeng Academy is yin-sheng-yang-shuai (overly dependent on women), and among them, Dongyuan Academy is the most mocking. Every time they use this to ridicule the men of our Nanfeng Academy, saying that we rely on women like Jiang Qinge and Lü Qinger to hold up our reputation."

  In Shu Prefecture, apart from Nanfeng Academy, there were other academies, but their reputation and strength were all weaker than Nanfeng Academy. However, in recent years, Dongyuan Academy has risen the fastest, showing signs of challenging Nanfeng Academys title as the number one academy in Shu Prefecture.

  Li Luo didnt seem to care about this, and said indifferently: "Their mouths are on someone elses body, let them say what they want. The more they care about this, the greater the pressure from Jiang Qinge and Lü Qinger on them."

  Zhao Kuo patted Li Luos shoulder and said, "Even if you dont care about them, if you have the chance, you must defeat Lü Qinger. I believe in you, you will definitely return to your peak."

  Li Luo pouted and showed no great interest in this.

  As the two men spoke, Xu Shanyue also walked into the training ground. It was clear that he was in a very good mood, and his usual serious face was filled with smiles.

  "Everyone, our First Institute handed over ten Golden Leaves to us Second Institute today, so starting from today, we will have ten more Golden Leaves for cultivation."

  Upon hearing Xu Shanyues words, the scene was filled with excited voices. After all, the Academys Grand Examination was imminent, and Golden Leaf Cultivation couldnt be mentioned without making them even more eager to advance further.

  "These golden leaves were won back by Li Luos solo effort yesterday, everyone should be grateful for this."

  His voice fell, and the scene immediately erupted in a burst of applause. A bold and pretty female classmate said: "To show my gratitude, I can have dinner with Luo Ge."

  Inside the court, there was a burst of envy and laughter.

  Li Luo could only smile helplessly, secretly sighing at this charm that had nowhere to settle, and then ignored the teasing of his female classmate.

  Xu Shanyue pressed his palm down, suppressing the laughter in the field, and then didnt say much more, directly starting todays lesson.

  After waiting for three hours of classes to end, Li Luo found Xu Shanyue and wanted to ask for an afternoon off.

  "Taking another day off?"

  Xu Shanyue heard this and hesitated for a moment. If it were in the past, he might have refused with a straight face, but now Li Luo had just given him some face, so in the end he said: "Okay, but you also need to be careful, the pre-exam is coming soon, youve fallen behind for a while and need to catch up quickly, otherwise you wont pass the pre-exam and Shengxuan Xing Academy will have no hope."

  Li Luo smiled and agreed, waved goodbye, and quickly left the school.

  At the entrance of the school, there was a luxurious car, like a mobile house. Li Luo got in and saw Cai Wei looking at an account book by the window.

  Today, Cai Weis small hand grasped a lace-edged round fan, gently swaying it back and forth. Next to her was a cup of steaming hot green tea. Her demeanor was languid and mature, paired with that slender and delicate figure, like a beautiful snake, truly captivating.

  Its clear that Cai Wei is a woman who values a refined life, the car in front of her is more luxurious and comfortable than Jiang Qinges was before.

  Li Luo felt that Cai Weis family background was probably not ordinary either, but he didnt know why she would come to Luolan Prefecture as a steward.

  "Have you eaten? Ive prepared lunch for you." Cai Wei glanced at Li Luo, her slender fingers pointing to the table where a sumptuous meal was laid out.

  "Cai Wei is really too considerate, whoever marries you will be blessed with good fortune from their past life." Li Luo exclaimed, Cai Wei can manage the account room and is beautiful and mature, in any aspect, she is a top-notch person.

  Among the women he had seen, Jiang Qinge was the first in terms of beauty and temperament, while Lü Qinger and Cai Wei were evenly matched, each with their own charm.

  "Your words are sweet."

  Tsai Wei smiled, and at the same time, while Li Luo was eating, she began to introduce: "Our Luolan Prefecture has also established a special department for the refining of spiritual water and strange light, called Xi Yang Wu. This brand is quite famous in the spiritual water and strange light market of Dashu."

  "The headquarters of Xi Yang House is in Dashawang City, with three branches set up in other counties of Daxia. And in Nanfeng City, Tianxu County, there happens to be one."

  "The Xiyang House brings considerable benefits to the Luolan Government every year, so now in the Luolan Government, Pei Huan is also fiercely competing for it and trying every means to occupy it."

  "The Tian Shu County branch, the previous president left for some reason, and the position of president is temporarily vacant. Then Pei Huan took advantage of the situation to take control of a deputy president, trying to manipulate this branch, but fortunately Qing E discovered it in time and quickly arranged for someone to come and intervene. So now this "Xi Yang Wu" branch is also quite troublesome, and has affected the production of Xi Yang Wu this year."

  "This damned Pei Huang Wang is really a beast."

  Li Lu couldnt help but curse in his heart. Before, he didnt care too much, but now that he suddenly needed a large amount of funds, he found himself restricted everywhere and realized how much trouble Bai Yanwolf Pei Hao had brought him.

  Otherwise, with Luolan Prefecture now united as one, the funds at his disposal would be more than just the 3 million or so from Tianxuan County each year.

  Under the gloom, the big meal in front of me didnt smell good for a while.

  ...

  The carriage drove through the surging crowds of Nanfeng City and finally stopped somewhere in the north of the city.

  Li Luo and Cai Wei got off the carriage, he looked ahead, only to see a large building like a pavilion standing there, with a sign hanging in front of the attic that read "Xi Yang House".

  There were strict guards in front of the Xiyang house.

  However, they immediately cleared the way when they saw Li Luo and Cai Wei.

  Two people entered unimpeded and then saw a group of people coming towards them.

  Li Luos gaze swept over, and it seemed that there were two distinct groups of people. The leader on the left was a middle-aged man with a smile on his face, while the one on the right was dazzling to the eye.

  She was a slender and tall young woman, with a beautiful face, high nose, and a pair of silver-framed glasses on her nose. Her long hair cascaded down, and she had an air of unadorned coldness about her.

  At this time, Cai Weis voice also came over softly.

  "The person on the left is called Bei Yu, who is the vice president that defected to Pei Huan."

  "The beautiful woman on the right is Yan Lingqing, a top student of Shengxuan Xuefus Quanxiang Academy and Qinges best friend. She is now a fourth-grade Quanxiang Master and is the reinforcement brought by Qinge."

  Li Luo heard this and was suddenly surprised, his eyes couldnt help but gaze at the young girl with long legs, wearing silver-framed glasses, looking extremely cold and proud.

  He didnt expect that this person would be from his dream school, Shengxuan Xing Academy.
