Rebirth Of A Villainess

"Head teacher Jin is getting married?!"

"Jin An please close your mouth, you don"t want flies entering into them!"

After Jin An, the timid one in the group of disciples that followed the young master of the GuBaiJin sect had voiced his thought on the news of his teacher"s upcoming wedding to the fox clan, this made Jin Dongbin to reprimand him in a light tone, for showing too much surprise . The other two youths in the group that were the loudest kept on with the conversation .

"Can you imagine it?!"

It was an head shaker to those that heard the news which came from a group of senior disciples sent by their sect leader .

"I wonder if headteacher Jin would have to give up teaching?!"

"What are you talking about? Of course he has to stop teaching!"

"But, if he does, then who would be our teacher?"

This time, one of the youths that usually spoke aggressively, Jin Xiangu used his sharp tongue to whip his timid cla.s.smate .

"Jin An! Why are you so slow! Aren"t there enough disciples for the sect leader to pick from to act as our teacher?! At times I doubt if you should be learning with us, you"re best suited to planting vegetables!"

The disciple that was called Jin An bursted into tears from being spoken to harshly by his fellow cla.s.smate .

"You didn"t have to go that far Jin Xiangu . "

Jin Dongbin, the young master of the GuBaiJin sect, was the one in the group that maintained balance among the boys, one would call him a gentle easygoing person that spoke with care . Not that it was surprising, since he had to uphold the name of the sect, as the young master and future sect leader .

"I agree with young master Jin, you shouldn"t use such coa.r.s.e tone on our little kitten!"

"Aya! Jin Xinze stop with your nonsense, if Jin An is a kitten then I"m the mad dog that preys on weak doe eyed weaklings!"

The two gave a raucous laugh at what was said, while the disciple that was the center of the quip kept sniffling from crying at the insult that was said to him by Jin Xiangu .

Meanwhile, Jin Tieguai who sat in front of them, heard clearly what they said about the wedding of the head teacher to a member of the royal family of the fox clan . The troublemaker was still reeling in shock from the news and couldn"t quite bring himself to accept that it was going to happen soon .

"Let"s leave Jin An for now and talk about what would possibly happen after head teacher Jin is gone . "

Young master Jin called his cronies back to their early discussion regarding the fate of their cla.s.s should their beloved teacher leave to an unknown land .

"That"s young master Jin for you, always worrying about what would happen if things are starting to go in the wrong direction!"

"Jin Xinze!"

Even though Jin Dongbin raised his voice a bit to the other disciple, it didn"t sound threatening instead the other found it very funny and began to laugh .

"Alright! Alright! Young master Jin, I"ll be serious!"

"Aya! One of this days, young master Jin would throw you off the cliff for being too annoying!"

Jin Xinze had to remind his cla.s.smate substly that despite Jin Dongbin not talking much and maintaining an aloof air of elegance and gentility . He should never forget who he was by acting brazenly .

"You are all my friends, there is no way that I would do something like that . "

Young master Jin spoke with a gentle smile on his face, which made his fair jade skin look all the more elegant as one from a fine household .

"Well spoken young master Jin!"

Jin Xinze was the one in the group that did the most brown nosing . Although, he had respect for the young master of the GuBaiJin sect, he wanted to wet the floor with his acts of kindness towards the young master of the sect, so as to secure a position for himself, should the other become the sect leader . He could already see himself as the right hand of his cla.s.smate, he was so into his imagination that the youth didn"t know when the words spilled out of his mouth .

"Sect Leader Jin!"

"Where?! Where is Sect Leader Jin?!"

The others asked Jin Xinze where he had seen their sect leader . Neither knew that the words were spoken out from daydreaming!

"Jin Xinze! Where did you see Sect Leader Jin?!"

The dreamy look in the eyes of the good looking youth vanished in a blink of an eye .

"I"m sorry young master Jin! I didn"t mean to make such a false announcement!"

"Then why did you say that?!"

This time, Jin Xiangu looked at the other disciple that threw the group into confusion, sending the other disciple a strange look .

"I thought I saw Sect Leader Jin!"

To cover up his blunder, Jin Xinze had to tell a lie to save some face .

"It"s okay, I"m sure Jin Xinze is just tired . "

Seeing the young master stand up for him and also smiling warmly made the disciple swear within him to do whatever it took to remain by Jin Dongbin"s side .

"See! Jin An was about ready to run out!"

Hearing young master Jin poke fun at the most timid of them, sent each one in the group into a fit of laughter .

"Shus.h.!.+ But truth be told, Sect Leader Jin scares me!"

Jin Xiangu was back again at talking about others .

"Me too, when I see him coming from one direction, I have to run the other way! At times I feel my heart stop just hearing his name!"

"What a kitten!"

"Stop Jin Xinze! Don"t call my An a kitten!"

Hearing Jin Dongbin refer to the timid disciple in affectionately caused jealousy to rise in the heart of the disciple, he didn"t know that he was playing into the hands of the young master, who already knew of the other"s devotion towards him .

"Jin An, will always have young master Jin to look after him!"

Jin Xiangu unknowingly added salt to the already bruised heart of Jin Xinze by inferring that Jin Dongbin will keep the other disciple by his side rather than Jin Xinze .

"I don"t need protecting! I can look out for myself!"

Hearing the voice of Jin An was sounded like those of a toddler giving an empty boast of how they could sleep alone in the dark . The youths couldn"t help but laugh at the weak voice of Jin An .

"Just give up and let young master Jin look after you!"

"Hmph! Just wait and see! I will be the one by young master Jin"s side!"

Jin Xinze fervently spoke the promise to himself, it was then that the young master turned and saw the ugly look in his eyes that was sent Jin An"s way . This caused a secret smile to appear on the lips of Jin Dongbin .

"This is going to be interesting, I can"t wait to see who would emerge as the winner between the two, would the kitten be ripped to shreds or would the mad dog have his eyes plucked out of their socket?"

None of them knew the dark thought of Jin Dongbin, who in actuality had none that he cared for, to him they were there to make him s.h.i.+ne the brightest .

"When do you think we would get the chance to meet disciples from other sects?!"

It was Jin Xiangu that spoke, whose blood was the hottest in the group .

"Why do you want to see them?!"

"Don"t you want to know what other disciples look like, Jin Xinze?! At least we can see their sword fighting skills! I heard that young master s.h.i.+ from the ShenJiangs.h.i.+ sect has decent sword skills!"

"It doesn"t matter how much of a sword fighting skills he may have, there is none that can match those of young master Jin!"

"Aya! See how the veins in your head is popping out! Stop getting worked up from hearing about a young master from another sect! I never said anything about young master Jin"s fighting skills, but we all know that his isn"t bad, don"t you want to see him bring down the ShenJiangs.h.i.+"s young master? I heard he is very arrogant, despite being a rank below us!"

That seemed to bring Jin Xinze"s agitation down, he thought his cla.s.smate was praising the fighting prowess of another sect .

"That means that the fox clan would be joining us everytime we host a compet.i.tion!"

"Jin An! Do you think so?!"

"I would think that since we are going to be related by marriage, they have to partic.i.p.ate in social gatherings organized by the GuBaiJin sect . "

"What if they don"t, isn"t it going to cause the sect to lose face?!"

"They won"t dare to! Sect Leader Jin would not let them have their way!"

"Jin Xinze! Please speak reasonable, it is true that father possesses much strength, but in comparison, he is no match to the Fox King . I read that when he was younger he was more of a troublemaker than Jin Tieguai, but something happened and he became very different . "

"You mean that Fox King was very unruly! How can such a person rule his people!"

"Aya! Jin Xinze! You don"t have to be the most intelligent to reign over many! As long as you have good advisers and an army of faithful ones! An idiot or gullible person can become King!"

Jin Xiangu gave a pa.s.sionate speech to the group, such that even Jin An that didn"t care much for politics stared at him with open mouth .

"That"s our future in-law, we must speak with respect!"

"Forgive us, young master Jin!"

The two most talkative youth apologized to jin Dongbin . The more Jin Tieguai heard them talk, the darker his expression grew .

"I can"t imagine having strange half beasts coming into our sect!"

It was as if the words that young master Jin spoke went one ear and came out of the other ear .

"What do you mean by half beast, Jin Xiangu?!"

Jin Dongbin already knew who the other disciple was making reference to, which was why he took a step back to watch the scene play out .

"Don"t you know what will happen if headteacher Jin has children with the fox princess!"

Hearing the loud voice of the most annoying of Jin Dongbin"s cronies made the blood of Jin Tieguai boil, the words that he said were like sharp nails digging into his skin .

"Half fox Half immortals?"

"Oh you mean that!"

Jin An was slow to understand what was said until he heard young master Jin speak .

"That shouldn"t be any of our concern!"

"I tell you! If those people show their faces! I will have to feign being sick to avoid meeting them!"

"Aya! Jin Xiangu, how many mouths do you have?! Didn"t you want to meet disciples from other sects?! Yet, you are getting angry about having a royalty from the fox clan as relative!"

"This is different! I don"t understand why sect leader is allowing such a marriage!"

"Don"t you get it?! It is all about power! Join forces with such a powerful bloodline will make the GuBaiJin sect undefeatable and the other sects would have to cower in fear when they see us!"

It was then that a malicious smile stole across the face of Jin Dongbin, when he heard what Jin An said, which was why even though he never cared much for the disciple, he was very smart unlike the others who wanted to appear like they were when around him . He was timid by nature and very shy, but whenever he had something to say to the group, he"ll momentarily put away his shyness .

"It wouldn"t be such a bad idea to have Jin An by my side . "

This made Jin Dongbin wonder which was the true Jin An .
