Huah Yun didn’t show what he was thinking, his face full of joy, and immediately asked his subordinates to prepare paper and pen.
Um... the others were at a loss.
Weren’t we supposed to have a fight?
Why did it suddenly become all artsy?
However, Chang Jun and Tu Su seemed to have no objections, instead remaining very silent.
The paper and pen were brought in.
The paper was not too big or too small, the brush was ready, and the ink had already been ground.
Sui Yi looked at Huah Yun.
Huah Yun understood, "Well... just write... um... alright, my humble talent is limited, please, Teacher, write something."
"Would two characters be okay?"
Two?
That’s so few.
"Sure, sure, sure," Huah Yun laughed heartily, very agreeable.
What kind of poem can be expressed with just two characters?
Such were the thoughts crossing Huah Yun’s mind.
The characters were written.
The brush was already put down.
"Done?" Huah Yun instinctively looked at the two glaringly bright characters on the white paper.
Done?
No.
It was "Delicious".
Delicious?
Haha, these two characters are so devoid of depth, yet so down-to-earth.
What happened to that lofty aura of a master?
But Huah Yun wasn’t angry at all, because these two characters...
Delicious.
It’s actually very simple, but how do you give someone a sense that’s both grand and alluring in its simplicity?
Who knows, if one knew, perhaps the person who could write these two characters wouldn’t be just this person.
Huah Yun looked at the two characters for a long time, changing several angles to view them, the more he looked, the more his expression grew serious.
"In the past, someone once told me that words can speak, even move... I thought it was just a joke, and now I know..."
He turned around, bowing to Sui Yi once more.
"Teacher, thank you."
"You’re welcome."
Chang Jun and Tu Su appeared next to them at some unknown point, both looking at the two characters, then at Sui Yi.
"No wonder... Ice Gleam Academy would hire you with high pride, huh... Teacher... seems to have the surname Sui, right..."
Tu Su was up close and had a friendly smile.
The most important thing was, he moved his body close, leaning towards Sui Yi...
Sui Yi could see Tu Su’s face up close by just lifting his eye.
If it were a typical woman, she might be quite repelled, or avoid...
But Sui Yi didn’t move an inch.
"Ah, you smell quite nice..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xu’s expression changed. She knew very well that the woman beside Sui Yi, despite her ordinary appearance, had an extraordinary charm in her aroma, and she knew this was a natural fragrance.
So, Tu Su’s comment wasn’t just teasing; it was harassment.
Harassing a female teacher of Ice Gleam Academy?
Chang Jun flipped his wrist, a ball of flame.
No, it should be said, a rather icy flame.
The temperature dropped immediately.
Huah Yun maintained his smile, not knowing what he was contemplating.
"Words are a language, and what is language?"
Tu Su’s eyes were long and narrow, and when he squinted, they looked like a line.
"A weapon."
"So are you attacking me?"
Sui Yi asked him.
Tu Su looked at him...
For quite a while.
He suddenly turned around.
He pushed the door open directly.
Without looking back.
As if a huge beast was chasing him from behind.
Chang Jun looked at Sui Yi once again, then turned and chased after him.
The others were already bewildered.
What just happened?
Did Mr. Sui scare away the ruthless Tu Su with just one simple question?
Wow, Mr. Sui has some cheat!
With Tu Su gone, Chang Jun left as well, and instead of the Mischievous Child and Sword Thief acting unruly, they exchanged glances and bolted without even looking at Sui Yi.
——————————
When the door opened, it was snowing outside, covering the ground, turning the world white.
She stood there, looking at the spiraling dome of the sky.
Xu Mu suddenly said, "Teacher."
That random remark.
Sui Yi turned his head.
"This snow is so white... it whitened the whole sky."
Out of nowhere, Wanzi and the others glanced at Xu Mu.
Sui Yi chuckled softly, "Perhaps, the sky is what’s white."
But isn’t the sky blue?
The four of them watched as Sui Yi, after that smile, strolled into the vast expanse of white snow.
In a daze, Xu Xu thought Sui Yi’s clothes were so very white, like snow...
From the second floor, Huah Yun, who had just cautiously brought paper upstairs, saw the man standing by the window, and smiled even more cautiously: "Lord, just as you said, this Mr. Sui is something else... her characters are truly splendid!"
"Characters?" The man’s voice was deep and resonant, like a cello.
"What I was referring to wasn’t the characters."
He clutched the wine glass, floating away.
-————————————
The earth was covered in snow, already a thick layer.
Chang Jun chased to a vast snowy field, where there was no sign of human life nearby.
The blood on the ground was still bright red.
But there was no continuation.
Chang Jun stood in place, expressionless.
A moment later, he left.
Leaving only a shallow footprint on the ground.
As soon as he left, the space was torn open.
Tu Su, with a pale face, holding his heart, said, "Ah, to have the honorable Lord Kong Xue come to my rescue... it’s a great honor."
"This only proves you still have value... you should thank yourself."
Kong Xue took a sip of wine, seemingly losing interest, and tilted the cup to Yi.
The wine in the cup melted some of the snow and turned as red as blood.
The cup was thrown to the ground.
"The Thousand Buddhas wants me to tell you... the Polar Ice Burst in Ice Gleam is your goal... obtaining it will increase your value, otherwise..."
The cup lay on the snowy ground.
Tu Su laughed insolently, like a rogue who had gotten a good deal.
The smile did not reach his eyes.
"Sometimes I really envy you young people... because with youth, comes more opportunity."
"But Lord Kong Xue’s presence here clearly isn’t just to warn me, that woman is your task."
Tu Su’s cunning was plainly revealed at this moment.
Kong Xue looked at him and smiled slightly, "Smart child, also quite annoying... when you’re no longer valuable, I will personally drain your blood."
The blood-red hair faded from dazzling to ethereal, and disappeared.
The Mischievous Child and Sword Thief found the place and only picked up a cup.
"His injury hasn’t healed, and it has relapsed."
"Damn, let him escape."
"That woman...."
"Not part of the plan, don’t bother... pity we can’t settle Brother Su...." the Mischievous Child said in a boyish, immature voice.
"The Polar Ice Burst is our goal....The Thousand Buddhas had us three execute this mission, can’t let him take all the credit..."
The voice echoed in the air....
No one noticed that in the ice crystal forest seven or eight meters away, a leaf was constantly fluttering....
In fact, who would notice the countless leaves falling into snow.
————————
On the balcony, Sui Yi used a leaf to see Kong Xue and Tu Su, and heard their conversation... until the Sword Thief duo left.
Polar Ice Burst... The Thousand Buddhas.... Kong Xue.
With a flick of his finger, the leaf fluttered back into the air, and Sui Yi used a small turtle to contact Pu Qinghan.
"Someone’s already targeting me."
"Is it them, Shura?" On Pu Qinghan’s side, there was the roar of some terrifying beast.
Sui Yi briefly recounted the recent events, "Someone’s been upstairs... a Cloud Ascendant, under The Thousand Buddhas."
"The Thousand Buddhas? Hmm... this isn’t good news."
"Obviously not."
Sui Yi didn’t plan to say much more, hanging up with, "How many Exotic Beasts on your side?"
"None, just a few."
"Take your time, safety first."
"Okay."
After Pu Qinghan turned off the small turtle, he looked ahead at the hundreds of... charging.
————————
For the next two days, Sui Yi almost always went to the library on time and spent the whole day there; however, Ice Gleam Academy was akin to a world-class school, with many scholars, so the librarian found nothing unusual.
She occasionally encountered the woman... who wasn’t reading "The Nation" anymore, instead casually browsing novel after novel... disinterestedly.
Clearly a very cold person, her manner of reading was the same.
Sui Yi changed books, looking for the White Paper Book, she just switched from one novel to another...
Of course, she quickly left.
Sui Yi didn’t pay any more attention.
The third day.
Inside the Pharmacognosy examination hall.....
Boom!
A loud explosion.
A dozen ferocious beasts with tusks sharp enough to crush metal ore were charging at the thin woman...
A straightforward and fierce explosion turned those dozen tusked beasts into a bloody blur, leaving nothing but skeletons.
"Number 145, Yi, passed, come out..."
Meanwhile, in the practical field next door.
"Number 146, Green Bean, passed.... can someone help him up, has the kid never seen blood before? Even started vomiting..."
Yi walked out, seeing Green Bean squatting in the corner, vomiting as if the world were spinning...
Yi watched for a moment, waiting for Green Bean to finish vomiting before saying, "Wipe your mouth clean before coming over."
The tone was unmistakably cold and disdainful.
Green Bean: "....."
The differential treatment was too obvious.
Eh~~
Through is through, clearly it wasn’t a big deal for Yi; Sui Yi didn’t think much of it either, until the second day of school start.....
When Yi and Green Bean were leaving, they saw Sui Yi was with them.
Yi: "No need to see us off."
Green Bean: "That’s right, no need to see us off."
Sui Yi: "No, I’m also going to Ice Gleam."
Oh~~ going to the library again, huh.
The two didn’t think much of it.
Until they were about to part at the intersection, "Are you both in the Pharmacognosy major?"
"Energy"
"Medicine"
Of course.
The two went up the stairs of the Pharmacognosy building, one on each side.
Sui Yi headed for another classic building.
Bamboo, banana trees, lakes, orchid fragrance.....
Very artistic.
