Chapter 167 - Going Out

Gritting her teeth, Lan Xinyu glared at Ling Chuxi. She felt that one day she would end up being angered to death by Ling Chuxi.

“What were you going to say just now?” drawled Ling Chuxi.

Suppressing her anger, Lan Xinyu asked somewhat angrily, “Are you going for the student exchange program between the five big academies? The capital’s Wind Cloud Academy. Want to give it a shot? They have a vast collection of books. It’s ranked number 1 in the whole nation.”

Ling Chuxi was a little interested. “Oh? The academy recommended us to go?”

“Yes. However, it also depends on the student’s own interest,” replied Lan Xinyu, blinking. “Are you interested? We can go together.”

Ling Chuxi thought about it and nodded. “That can be considered.”

So, the capital’s Wind Cloud Academy actually had a student exchange program. Never thought that this world’s academy system was so advanced.

“That’s good. We’ll go together. When winter is over and school reopens in spring, we’ll go over to Wind Cloud Academy,” said Lan Xinyu happily, then delightfully went aside to rest.

On the other hand, Ling Chuxi was thinking about other various problems. It was said that there were numerous experts at the capital’s Wind Cloud Academy, and they had a vast collection of books too. It was a good place to learn.

Ling Chuxi raised her head to look out of the carriage and saw that the sky was still dark, and the air outside was damp and cold. ‘Seems like it’s about to snow?’ This thought had just crossed her mind when it started to slowly snow outside. At first, there were just a few snowflakes dancing in the air, then large quantities of snowflakes started floating down. Very quickly, the ground turned white.

“Oh no, it’s snowing.” Lan Xinyu looked out the carriage window and sighed. “This is the second snowfall this year. What a heavy one.”

Lan Xinyu’s words made Ling Chuxi reminisce about the first snowfall. She had strolled in the forest behind the training venue whilst Huangfu Qingjue held an umbrella for her. Huangfu Qingjue. Ling Chuxi secretly repeated his name in her heart. Who exactly was he? Every time, he appeared and disappeared without a trace. He was so mysterious and his cultivation was incredibly strong. Who exactly was he?

After returning to White Stone City, they started their daily routine of full day classes. In the blink of an eye, their break was here again. Ling Chuxi did not go anywhere this break, but immersed herself in the White Stone Academy’s library.

The White Stone Academy had a lot of books, but Ling Chuxi realized that some of them were not complete. Especially books that were more in depth. It seemed that Lan Xinyu was right. Perhaps the Wind Cloud Academy in the capital would have a better collection of books.

“Chuxi, you are reading this?” asked Ling Yichen in a whisper. He had appeared by Ling Chuxi’s side at some unknown time.

“Huh? Oh, I was just flipping through it.”

Ling Chuxi was leaning against a bookshelf as she flipped through a book about the fundamentals of pill refinement. After she finished speaking, she put the book in her hand back to its original position.

“Yichen, how is your injury now?” she asked.

“It has recovered,” replied Ling Yichen.

The pill Ling Chuxi gave him had practically completely healed him. These past few days, he had been eating those pills as if they were jelly beans, to the point that he was almost unable to digest them all. How could he not have recovered?

Hearing that Ling Yichen had recovered, Ling Chuxi felt reassured. “That’s good. I want to request for leave from the teacher for a few days. We’ll make a trip to White Stone Canyon.”

“Alright.” Ling Yichen did not hesitate at all as he nodded to indicate his agreement to Ling Chuxi’s arrangements. He did not even bother to ask why she wanted to go there.

“I want to go and collect some herbs to refine the Battle Element Pill,” said Ling Chuxi, frowning.

During the tournament in Shi Qu Town, the Luo family’s people had taken the Battle Element Pill, almost causing Ling Yichen to lose the match. Although the price they paid was heavy, but the terrifying effectiveness of the Battle Element Pill was undeniable.
