Chapter 692 [Listen to the Phoenix 28]
The afternoon sun shone into the classroom through the window. The teacher walked up to the podium with steady steps and was about to start a new class when he suddenly found that the ruler he usually used was missing. He frowned and looked around the classroom.
Soon, the teacher's eyes fell on Feng Wu's bookcase, and the missing ruler was lying on it! At this time, Mu Yao, who was sitting next to her, showed a hint of smugness on her face. Naturally, all this did not escape the teacher's eyes, but from Mu Yao's reaction, it was obvious that she did it on purpose to frame Feng Wu.
However, the teacher had long been dissatisfied with Fengwu's behavior of dozing off in class. When he saw the ruler in Fengwu's bookcase, he presumed that Fengwu had stolen the ruler and refused to admit his mistake. So, the teacher frowned and severely reprimanded Fengwu.
Faced with the teacher's misunderstanding and scolding, Feng Wu was very unconvinced. She stared at the teacher with wide eyes, stubbornly, with sparks of anger flashing in her eyes. In anger, Feng Wu suddenly stretched out her hand and smashed Mu Yao's desk directly, and one of the wooden boards even hit Mu Yao's feet squarely.
This time, the master was completely enraged. He was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, pointed at the door and shouted loudly: "Feng Wu, you get out and accept your punishment!"
Feng Wu gritted her teeth and walked out of the classroom without looking back. The punishment prescribed by the teacher was not simple. She had to use her spiritual power to melt a huge block of ice and boil a pot of steaming hot tea.
The ice block stood there like a small mountain, emitting icy cold air. Feng Wu took a deep breath, mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and attacked the ice block. It was smooth at first, but as time went by, the ice block only melted a little bit, and Feng Wu's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her arms gradually became numb and weak.
But Feng Wu did not give up. She gritted her teeth and continued to persevere. After a whole afternoon, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red. Feng Wu finally succeeded in melting the ice completely and making tea. At this time, she was already exhausted and panting, and her arms seemed to have lost consciousness.
It's easy to know that Mu Yao will not give up. But Feng Wu is not a soft persimmon that can be bullied. She secretly made up her mind that if Mu Yao dared to provoke her again, she would make Mu Yao suffer until she was convinced.
As for Mu Yao, she and Feng Wu have completely different auras. Mu Yao has always been arrogant and doesn't like Feng Wu, so she always likes to find opportunities to tease her. There is a taste of happy enemies between the two.
The heartless Feng Wu still lived a carefree life, and was unaware that Jun Linyuan was eager for her to improve her spiritual power. In fact, Jun Linyuan was under tremendous pressure at this time.
The high and mighty Holy Queen had repeatedly mentioned Jun Linyuan's marriage in front of the Holy King, intent on interfering. This time was no exception, as the Holy King actually gave the power to choose a concubine to the High Holy Queen.
Faced with such an arrangement, Jun Linyuan expressed his opposition without hesitation. However, his courageous struggle for his own happiness was regarded as a treasonous act in the eyes of the Holy Lord.
At the same time, the Queen also hypocritically claimed that she was of low status and unworthy of intervening in the matter, and should not interfere. Such words seemed to be humble and yielding, but in fact they secretly pushed Jun Linyuan to the position of a sinner.
Upon hearing this, the Holy Lord flew into a rage and ordered Jun Linyuan to go to Tongtian Terrace and kneel for a full hour.
Although he knew very well that this Tongtian Terrace was the place where Mu Jiuzhou experienced the catastrophe of ascension, and that the terrace was covered with crisscrossing lightning and was extremely dangerous, in order to defend the sincere feelings between him and Feng Wu, Jun Linyuan did not complain at all and resolutely accepted the punishment.
At this time, Jun Linyuan was alone in Tongtian Terrace receiving severe punishment, and Feng Wu was unaware of all this. At this time, an unexpected person appeared - Wu Youdao. He took the initiative to find Feng Wu with a mysterious look on his face and invited her to go to the Sutra Pavilion together.
After arriving at the Sutra Library, Wu Youdao unexpectedly handed the key to the side door to Fengwu. It turned out that this seemingly ordinary old man had already seen that Fengwu was struggling to find something, but for various reasons, he could not directly answer her questions and could only hint: "Perhaps the books in here can give you the answers you want."
However, Wu Youdao also emphasized that although the Sutra Repository had a large collection of books, only the books on the first floor were available for free reading. As for the second floor, it was considered a forbidden area and no one was allowed to enter.
At the same time, Wu Youdao also solemnly told Feng Wu that this matter must not be revealed to anyone, especially Jun Linyuan. Faced with such a strange request, Feng Wu couldn't help but feel puzzled. She really couldn't understand why Wu Youdao only mentioned the name Jun Linyuan.
Seeing Feng Wu's puzzled expression, Wu Youdao sighed deeply, then slowly said: "My child, you and Jun Linyuan have a fate full of twists and turns. If you insist on being together, it will probably lead to a huge disaster. So, I hope you can calm down and think carefully about what your real purpose is. Don't forget your original intention because of a momentary love affair!"
After saying these words, Wu Youdao patted Feng Wu's shoulder meaningfully, and then turned and left. Feng Wu was left standing there alone, lost in deep thought...
When Feng Wu came out of the Sutra Library, it was already dark. As soon as she came out, she noticed a figure sneaking into the Sutra Library, so she turned back and found that it was Yu Mingye. Yu Mingye came for the restricted area on the second floor, but there was a barrier there, so he failed to enter successfully. Facing Feng Wu's questions, Yu Mingye just said that he was out for a walk, and even took Feng Wu to have a midnight snack. They didn't notice that Jun Linyuan was watching not far away.
After slowly walking down from the towering and majestic Tongtian Terrace, Jun Linyuan's heart was hanging. He looked around anxiously, eagerly searching for the familiar figure - Feng Wu. However, no matter how hard he looked, he could not find any trace of Feng Wu, which made him feel a strong sense of worry and uneasiness.
Jun Linyuan frowned, his deep eyes full of anxiety. He walked quickly while constantly calling Feng Wu's name. His voice echoed in the empty field, but the only response was the sound of the wind. The more time he spent without finding Feng Wu, the more worried Jun Linyuan became. He began to have wild thoughts, fearing that Feng Wu might have met with something unexpected.
Just when Jun Linyuan was extremely anxious, he finally caught a glimpse of Feng Wu at a corner. She was standing there quietly, with a graceful figure and a peaceful face, and she looked safe and sound. At that moment, Jun Linyuan's heart finally settled down a little, and he breathed a sigh of relief. But he did not immediately go up to meet Feng Wu, but turned around and left the place silently.
On the other side, Feng Wu was completely unaware of Jun Linyuan's search. She returned to her bedroom on her own, still thinking about something along the way. She had no idea that Jun Linyuan was anxiously looking for her.
In the following days, Feng Wu always avoided Jun Linyuan intentionally or unintentionally, and kept a certain distance from him. Whenever Jun Linyuan wanted to get close to her, she would always find various excuses to leave quickly. Such behavior made Jun Linyuan feel very confused and puzzled. He really couldn't understand why Feng Wu suddenly became so cold to him.
In fact, the reason why Feng Wu behaved like this was entirely because of what Wu Youdao had said before. Wu Youdao had told her that her destiny was bumpy and her future would be full of hardships and twists and turns. Feng Wu knew that her future was difficult, and she was unwilling to involve Jun Linyuan in it, and she didn't want to implicate him because of herself. Therefore, although she had a deep attachment and reluctance to Jun Linyuan in her heart, she still made up her mind to distance herself from him.
However, Jun Linyuan didn't know what Feng Wu was thinking deep in her heart. He spent the whole day thinking hard, trying to find out the reason for Feng Wu's change of attitude, but no matter how he guessed, he couldn't get a definite answer. This feeling of confusion made Jun Linyuan feel extremely depressed and distressed, but he could do nothing but watch Feng Wu getting farther and farther away from him.
As luck would have it, the birthday of Empress Gao Sheng was approaching, and the entire palace was busy. For this birthday celebration, Empress Gao Sheng had the unique idea of carefully selecting two students, one male and one female, from the Junwu Academy, and letting them perform the exquisite double swordsmanship created by Mu Jiuzhou, who was once a world-renowned figure.
This is undoubtedly a great honor for Junwu Academy and a great opportunity to show its strength. Among the many outstanding male students, Jun Linyuan, who has the highest level of cultivation and the most exquisite martial arts, naturally became the first choice. Everyone has no objection to this. After all, Jun Linyuan's strength is obvious to all, and it is most appropriate for him to take on this important task.
However, when it came time to select female students, the situation became a little complicated. Empress Gao personally appointed Zuo Qingluan as her partner. But no one expected that Zuo Qingyuan would bluntly express her unwillingness to participate in this matter and decisively rejected Empress Gao's kindness. For a moment, the atmosphere became extremely tense, and everyone held their breath, waiting for Empress Gao's reaction.
According to the temper of the Empress Gao Sheng, anyone who dared to disobey her will would be punished severely. Just when everyone thought Zuo Qingyuan was going to be in trouble, You You stepped forward and protected Zuo Qingyuan behind her without hesitation.
As the young master of the Biluo Palace, Youyou's skills are unfathomable, and even the Queen Gaosheng is quite afraid of her. After weighing the pros and cons, the Queen Gaosheng had to swallow her anger for the time being and gave up the idea of punishing Zuo Qingyuan. But in this way, the candidate for the female student was vacant again. Therefore, the Queen Gaosheng selected a girl with outstanding talents from her own people, hoping to successfully complete this performance.
I thought the matter was settled, but Jun Linyuan stood up and expressed his opposition to this arrangement. He looked determined and said loudly, "I think this selection method is not fair, and it is impossible to select the most suitable female students. In my opinion, it is better to use a competition format, so that all interested female students can compete with each other, and the final winner will be qualified to perform on stage with me!"
The whole audience was shocked when he said this. But after thinking about it carefully, it seems to make sense. After all, contestants selected through fair competition are more convincing. Gao Sheng was embarrassed, and after thinking for a while, he finally agreed to Jun Linyuan's proposal. A fierce competition kicked off...
