Chapter 127 - 123: Sense of Superiority
In the courtyard, Li Fan was meditating with his eyes closed.
"Brother Yang," a frantic voice echoed. Li Fan opened his eyes and saw Xiao Kui approaching. He asked, "What’s the matter?"
"Brother Huang went to Bai Lu Academy. I couldn’t stop him," Xiao Kui said urgently.
"He went to Bai Lu Academy?" Li Fan’s mind raced as he instantly understood the situation. Huang Xiong, being a man of righteous character, likely saw Lu Yuan and Ji Xue visiting, heard Ji Xue’s words, and believed Bai Lu Academy intended to confront him. So, he took the initiative to go to Bai Lu Academy himself.
"That fool!" Li Fan smiled ruefully. He had already told Huang Xiong to leave the matter to him.
*On the day he and Ji Xue entered the city, a teacher from Bai Lu Academy approached them after leaving the academy. That person should know the recent stir caused by the array on White Deer Street was linked to him.*
*Thus, if Li Fan sought out that teacher, they would likely give him some deference, and the matter could be resolved without going to such lengths.*
*But now that things had escalated to this point, he had no choice but to make a trip to Bai Lu Academy.*
*Huang Xiong acted in good faith, but it only complicated matters.*
"Don’t worry, I’ll go with you," Li Fan said softly, noticing Xiao Kui’s anxious expression. She nodded and followed him.
The two quickly left the courtyard and headed toward Bai Lu Academy.
