Xuanyuan Hao was the most outstanding son of Xuanyuan Li. At the age of seven, he was brought to the military camp by his father, where he became well-versed in military strategy. By twelve, he was accompanying his father in battles and had never experienced defeat!
But then again, his last battle ended in failure, with him dying from being pierced by thousands of arrows.
Second Madame's thoughts wandered unknowingly.
She had just mentioned being possessed, but now she herself was thinking about Xuanyuan Hao's death.
Second Master Jing considered Second Madame's words carefully and found the possibility unlikely. He was at the gate at the time, and the boy was in the backyard. How could the boy have cast a spell on him from such a distance?
"Never mind, just go get some paper money."
Second Madame gave him a sideways glance and said, "Alright, alright, I'll prepare it in a moment. But since you didn't capture the person, how are you going to explain to Divine Healer Mu?"
Thinking of Mu Ruxin gave Second Master Jing a headache.
Meanwhile, Gu Jiao and Old Master Meng had just finished a game of chess in the front yard.
Old Master Meng began to analyze the recent game, "Look, if you hadn't made this move, you might have won."
Gu Jiao listened attentively to the old man as he reviewed the chess game. The old man had an excellent memory and remarkable chess skills indeed.
Back in the State of Zhao, he had hidden his skills.
Old Master Meng placed a black piece on the board and said, "If you play here, here, or here, you can't survive, so the move you made was correct."
Gu Jiao replied, "No need to explain the correct moves, just focus on the mistakes."
Old Master Meng looked at Gu Jiao with appreciation, impressed by her attitude.
Remembering that this game was obtained using the Chess Saint token, Old Master Meng explained with extra care, though it seemed like something was a bit reversed here.
"Remember everything I said? Alright, let's play another game to see if you've truly understood!"
"No." Gu Jiao said, "I said just one game."
Old Master Meng: "…!!"
I, the Chess Saint of the Six States, am teaching you chess, and you still disdain it!
I’m not even this patient with my own disciples!
You should appreciate this while you can!
You'll regret it when I'm gone!
Gu Jiao thought of something and asked, "When are you leaving?"
Old Master Meng felt a rush of blood stuck in his throat. He took a deep breath and said in exasperation, "Your little black brother blew me up like this, and you won't even let me recover before kicking me out!"
Gu Jiao responded, "Oh."
Old Master Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his extensive experience allowed him to stay calm. If he really left in a huff, how would he get to play chess with this girl again?
Gu Jiao said, "You can walk the horse every day, and we'll provide food and lodging."
Old Master Meng: "…!!"
Gu Jiao took Old Master Meng’s token she had earned from playing chess and went back to her own room. The old man had said it could be used as an entry tally for the inner city. She had a tally from Xiao Heng, but the two items were completely different.
"A special tally, maybe?"
Gu Jiao murmured.
If the token the old man gave her could indeed be used as an inner city tally, it would be much safer than using the tally with the name "Gu Jiao."
Gu Jiao decided to try it at the inner city gate after school tomorrow.
Before dawn the next day, Gu Jiao got up and practiced with the red tassel spear in the backyard. By the time she finished, Gu Xiaoshun had woken up.
After the siblings had breakfast, they set off for Tianqiong Academy.
Their academy uniforms had been made, and Gu Xiaoshun had picked them up from the academy yesterday. Today, both of them wore the Tianqiong Academy uniforms.
"Big sis, you look great in our academy uniform!" Gu Xiaoshun said as he walked backwards, looking at Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao agreed, "I think I look great too!"
Just as she finished speaking, her eyes darkened, "Xiaoshun!"
It was too late; Gu Xiaoshun had already bumped into someone.
He had been walking backward and didn't expect to find a group of more than ten people blocking the alley at the turn.
"Brother Qin! It's this guy!" Said a young man with a bruised and swollen face, pointing at Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao recognized him. He was a student from Wuyue Academy whom she had previously dealt with, leaving him curled up like a shrimp. She had heard Zhou Tong mention him later; his name was Wu Feng, a native of Shengdu, known as a minor troublemaker at Wuyue Academy with a group of followers under him.
This Brother Qin was someone Zhou Tong had not mentioned however.
But he didn't look like someone good either.
Brother Qin grabbed Gu Xiaoshun by the collar, coldly curling his lips as he looked at Gu Jiao and said, "So, you're the one who bullied my brother?"
Gu Jiao looked at him indifferently, showing no fear in her eyes, "If you still want your hand, let him go."
Brother Qin sneered and raised his fist, aiming a punch at Gu Xiaoshun's stomach!
He was a martial artist and used almost seventy percent of his strength in this punch, enough to rupture Gu Xiaoshun's spleen!
Despite the fight last time, Gu Jiao hadn’t used such lethal force when dealing with Wu Feng and his followers.
Gu Jiao's gaze turned cold. With a flick of her fingers, a silver needle shot out and pierced Brother Qin's wrist.
His arm went numb, and Gu Xiaoshun broke free.
"Grab him!" Brother Qin gritted his teeth and shouted.
The dozen or so people in the alley rushed forward. Gu Jiao stepped up, pulled Gu Xiaoshun behind her, and kicked the first person coming at her. The other party flew backward, knocking over four or five others.
Gu Jiao stepped on them, their ribs seeming to crack under the pressure. Using them as a springboard, she launched another kick, sending Brother Qin, who had just regained his composure, flying into the wall and then crashing heavily to the ground!
Gu Jiao walked over and stomped on his chest, pinning him back to the ground as he tried to get up.
Brother Qin hadn't expected this kid to be so fierce. He had brought over a dozen people, yet the fight seemed almost over before it even started.
The remaining seven or eight Wuyue Academy students hesitated, afraid to step forward.
They weren't new students but older ones who had been at the academy for years. They were used to bullying others and had never been handled so roughly by a freshman before!
Especially considering this guy was a freshman at Tianqiong Academy!
Tianqiong Academy was a scholarly institution, filled with bookworms!
Gu Jiao looked down at him condescendingly and asked, "Do you want your hand or your life?"
Brother Qin's face turned red from being stomped on. He glared fiercely at Gu Jiao, "Do you know who I am? My father is a member of the Nangong Family... Ah——"
Crack!
Gu Jiao broke one of his ribs with her foot!
"What did you say? Who is your father?"
"My father is from the Nangong Family—Ahhh—"
Gu Jiao broke another rib!
A fierce killing intent suddenly erupted in Gu Jiao's eyes as she wickedly curled her lips, "Say it again, who is your father?"
Brother Qin didn’t dare make a sound this time, utterly terrified by Gu Jiao.
How could a boy who looked no older than seventeen be so terrifying?
Gu Jiao looked at the others who were frozen in fear and said coldly, "None of you from Wuyue Academy should appear around Tianqiong Academy again. If I'm unhappy, I beat people up like this."
With that, she stomped down again, breaking two more of Brother Qin's ribs. He passed out from the pain on the spot!

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:
Description:
In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.
When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.
The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.
From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.
***
Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.
After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"
Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"
Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
—
Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”
Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."
Jiang Baiyan: ...?
He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
