Chapter 1559: Chapter 1333: Jing Dajiang: Could the one who can perform Heaven Lock be Laugh Three Times?
Yan Yuezhi made her way inward.
Everything had gone smoothly this time.
Yet, it was the slowest she had ever entered.
She was unsure whether those three had already received the news.
With the news from overseas being pushed along, even at a great distance, as part of the immortal sect’s Western Astronomical Academy, they should have noticed something.
Especially since this matter concerned the Western Astronomical Academy itself, they couldn’t afford to take it lightly.
So upon entering, she looked at the three elderly gentlemen.
She tried to find an answer in their faces.
Regrettably, there wasn’t much difference from before.
“Do you know? A quiet girl like you should be likable,” Jing Dajiang said as he poured water into his mouth from the teapot,
“But your behavior is neither graceful nor peaceful.
“Have you noticed in recent years,
“The number of people who dislike you has been increasing?
“That’s your problem, you need to reflect on it.
“All right, I know you have a lot to say, but let me speak first.”
Yan Yuezhi looked at him but was not in a hurry to speak.
Being over a month late, there seemed no urgent need for haste.
“Although there were a few times before when you did well, leading us to the mistaken belief that the academy would need you in the future, illusions are illusions after all. Your subsequent actions have increasingly disappointed us….” Jing Dajiang rattled on.
Yan Yuezhi just listened quietly.
She wasn’t really paying attention to what they said.
It was only when Jing Dajiang took a breath to drink tea that Yan Yuezhi finally spoke, “The student indeed has urgent matters.”
“I know you have urgent matters, but they are things we do not wish to hear,” Jing Dajiang said.
“But informing the three gentlemen is the student’s duty,” Yan Yuezhi said.
“Then go find the dean, what do you want from us?” Jing Dajiang said.
“The dean suggested it was quicker and more convenient for the student to come to the back garden,” Yan Yuezhi replied truthfully.
“Good, good, good!” Jing Dajiang looked at the person before him and laughed, “Girl, you have disappointed me too much. Go ahead and speak, then disappear quickly.”
To be expelled from the academy, and never to be admitted again.
“This matter starts with something that happened overseas,” Yan Yuezhi said seriously, “According to reports, a person appeared overseas who confronted the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart directly.
“After suppressing the Dragon’s Heart, he used a technique called ‘Heaven Lock.'”
“Heaven Lock?” Jing Dajiang was stunned for a moment.
It wasn’t just him, the two other elderly men also immediately sat up straight:
“Heaven Lock? Are you sure it’s not something related but actually this technique?”
“I am certain it’s this technique,” Yan Yuezhi nodded.
“It seems the various clans have a big headache now, indeed it’s a serious matter,” Jing Dajiang said as he began to laugh, “But what does it have to do with us?
“Our people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion were already at the bottom.
“Even if we have to act against the powerful, we’re not in a hurry, let the other great clans worry first.
“They’ll probably want to kill this person.
“But even that doesn’t concern us.
“Very well, girl, you did a fine job this time.
“We were not wrong about you.
“We are aware of this issue now, you can go back,” he said.
Jing Dajiang was delighted, as this was not a major problem.
Indeed, the girl was still the one they liked.
Their judgment was not mistaken.
Looking at the three of them, Yan Yuezhi calmly said, “There’s more to this matter.”
“More? Isn’t it clear enough already? Heaven Lock, right? We know,” Jing Dajiang dismissed with a wave of his hand.
“If it were only about Heaven Lock, the student would not have come to the back garden,” Yan Yuezhi reminded him.
Hearing this, Jing Dajiang’s brow furrowed, what did she mean?
“Shouldn’t you ask what the name of the person who can use Heaven Lock is?” Yan Yuezhi asked.
At this question, Jing Dajiang’s eyebrows rose, he seemed to think of something, and nervously said, “It can’t be someone called ‘laugh three times,’ can it?”
Yan Yuezhi shook her head.
Seeing this, Jing Dajiang let out a sigh of relief.
It was good that it wasn’t that person.
However, before he could completely relax, Yan Yuezhi spoke again, “The person who can use Heaven Lock is called Gu Jin.”
Crack!
The moment Yan Yuezhi finished speaking, Jing Dajiang crushed the teapot in his hand.
The other two were also visibly shocked.
Then the three of them stood up swiftly.
Jing Dajiang confirmed once more, “You’re sure the person who used Heaven Lock is called Gu Jin?”
“That’s what the message says,” Yan Yuezhi nodded.
“When did this news come in?” Jing Dajiang asked.
“Over a month ago,” Yan Yuezhi answered.
“Traitor, traitor indeed,” Gu Jin lamented, “Who is your teacher? I will have him expelled from the Western Astronomical Academy at once. If he has taught such a rebel, there is no need for him to teach any longer.
“Such a significant event occurred, and you are only speaking of it now?”
“The student was trapped at the gate for over a month, which led to the delay,” Yan Yuezhi replied.
“Why didn’t you directly speak about this when you came in?” Jing Dajiang asked through gritted teeth.
“The gentleman asked the student to listen first before speaking,” Yan Yuezhi said.
“Rebellion, complete rebellion, you were stuck at an entrance for over a month; is all of it my fault?
“Do you bear no responsibility at all?
“If you were a bit stronger, a bit wiser, a bit more sensible, would you have been trapped for a month?
“Couldn’t you have shouted loudly?
“Did I prevent you from shouting?
“I am furious, where is your teacher? Expel him from the academy,” Jing Dajiang felt he had never been this angry.
Next, he called for the dean.
The middle-aged dean arrived quickly and looked somewhat puzzled at the group, but still bowed in greeting, “Dean, did you wish to see me?”
“Don’t call me dean, you are the dean,” Jing Dajiang scolded, “Are you aware of what happened overseas?”
“I learned of it a few days ago,” the dean nodded.
“You knew?” Jing Dajiang said in surprise, “If you knew, why didn’t you tell us?”
“Isn’t someone already here? Her information is always more reliable than ours, so I didn’t bother coming,” the dean said truthfully.
