Chapter 272 - 124: Yunhu Commerce
After the upheaval in Shang Kingdom, Xuanji Academy, though not directly involved in any faction’s struggle, still suffered significant losses in an invisible way.
In recent years, two of the most outstanding students in the academy, Fa Xiaoyi and Lie Sisi—one dead and one missing—and Madam She Xiang has always treated Fa Xiaoyi as her apprenticed successor. After this incident, Sha Fei’s ruling faction naturally shifted their anger towards the Inner Court. The days ahead for the Inner Court will undoubtedly not be easy.
Compared to this, the Outer Court seems to have felt the least impact. Zhan BeiAo hailed from the Outer Court, and although he hadn’t returned for many years, with Sha Fei’s backing, the Outer Court can at least avoid some unnecessary trouble.
As for Qiu Chuzi, one of the few Dark Heavenly Masters in Polo City, he did not show himself throughout the whole incident, not to mention which side he supported.
The only thing that concerns Yue Jinghua right now is Shalman’s whereabouts.
Passing through the familiar grove, Yue Jinghua heard a burst of arguing voices. Listening to the noise, both sides were vehement in their quarrel, ready to come to blows at any moment of disagreement.
"If any of you dare to step forward, don’t blame my Five-Colored Wolf Spider for being impolite," that was Shalman’s voice.
The Outer Court, always peaceful, rarely had outside visitors. What happened today; could it be that Sha Fei held a grudge against the Outer Court and sent people to cause trouble?
Yue Jinghua quickly hid in the shadows of the trees, surveying the situation ahead.
She saw Shalman blocking the entrance of the Outer Court’s Cultivation Room, hands on her hips, eyes round and glaring, confronting a girl and a young man in blue clothes.
