Chapter 237 Sheng Xiao: You’re Lying To Me
The dean could not refuse Sheng Xiao’s kneel.
The princ.i.p.al looked at him with a mixture of relief and grief in his eyes. Then, he raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window with tears in his eyes. He sighed and said, “None of the students of my Divine Realm Academy are good-for-nothings!”
Yu Huang stared at Sheng Xiao, who was kneeling on the ground. She did not stop him.
The dean looked away and met Sheng Xiao’s determined gaze. He said, “Okay, I’ll search your soul once!”
Sheng Xiao said, “Thank you, Dean.”
“Sit where you are and close your eyes.”
Sheng Xiao closed his eyes immediately.
The dean sat in front of Sheng Xiao and meditated. He injected some spiritual energy into Sheng Xiao’s forehead and let it enter his mind as gently as possible.
Even so, Sheng Xiao was trembling in pain.
Yu Huang quickly knelt behind Sheng Xiao. She placed her hands on his shoulders and injected her psychic power into him to relieve his pain.
The dean finally found Sheng Xiao’s memory.
Those memory pieces looked like a mess from afar.
The dean found the tail of the memory. He followed the tail and searched carefully. However, he found that Sheng Xiao had a white memory.
Memory was supposed to be colored. If it appeared in a pure white state, it meant that this part of his memory was forcibly removed.
Removing memories was even more dangerous than soul searching. The slightest mistake would cause the host to become a fool. The dean was shocked and he left Sheng Xiao’s mind.
The moment the dean retreated, Sheng Xiao fell back into Yu Huang’s arms.
He was very cold, so cold that he was trembling
Yu Huang hugged him tightly.
Both of them looked at the dean at the same time. Sheng Xiao asked, “Dean, what was the result?”
The dean shook his head and said frankly, “A part of your memory was forcefully removed.”
Yu Huang frowned. “So, someone caused his amnesia.” She thought that Sheng Xiao was injured and knocked his head, which resulted in his memory loss.
“That’s right,” the dean told them. “A person’s head is an existence that transcends dimensions. Our thinking is more advanced than the physical body. And because our beast tamers have awakened our potential, our heads have self-protection consciousness.”
“In other words…” The dean stared at Sheng Xiao. He said,” When you advance to the Grand Master level, your mind will also advance to the same level. At that time, your memory will be reconstructed. This is a little like the rebirth of a phoenix.”
Sheng Xiao said thoughtfully, “Dean, are you saying that when I break through to the Grand Master level, my memories will be rea.s.sembled? Then, my lost memories will be remembered again?”
“According to the research of those old men from the Purifying Spirit Department, that’s indeed the case.”
Hearing that, Sheng Xiao had some hope.
“I understand.” He would work hard to cultivate and strive to break through to the Grand Master realm as soon as possible.
“Oh, right.” The dean thought of something and asked Sheng Xiao, “The Central PaG.o.da Breakthrough Ceremony has ended. Do you want to graduate now, or stay in school?”
Sheng Xiao was about to answer when the dean interrupted him. “You should stay in the school. If you go back now, your father will definitely let you handle those trivial matters. Your top priority now is to cultivate and break through to the Grand Master realm as soon as possible. Why don’t you stay in the school and concentrate on cultivation?”
Sheng Xiao thought so too.
“Then what position should I hold in the academy?”
The dean thought about it and said, “The academy still lacks a discipline teacher.” The so-called discipline teacher referred to the teachers who specialized in maintaining the academy’s order.
Before, this had been the responsibility of a disciplinary executive.
“I might as well do so.”
No one was more suitable for this position than Sheng Xiao.
The dean had stamped Sheng Xiao’s enrollment list with the “Honourable Cadet Graduation” seal. When he stamped it, Sheng Xiao’s name disappeared from the academy’s expert rankings.
As soon as Sheng Xiao’s name disappeared, the people ranked below him moved forward. Yu Huang went from 87th place to 86th.
The dean opened the employee list of the Divine Realm Academy and wrote Sheng Xiao’s name on the last row. His position was discipline teacher.
Then, Sheng Xiao’s name appeared on the introduction wall.
Some students who pa.s.sed by the employee wall realized that although Senior Sheng had graduated, he would still be a teacher in the academy. Their faces turned pale.
Was this devil going to stay in the academy forever?
After the soul search, Sheng Xiao’s mental state was not very stable. Yu Huang brought Sheng Xiao back to the dormitory. Sheng Xiao felt strange lying on the pale pink embroidered bed sheet.
Yu Huang was brewing medicine for him in the kitchen using Soul Calming Gra.s.s.
After she was done, Yu Huang poured the medicine into a light blue porcelain bowl. As soon as she walked into the bedroom with the bowl of medicine, Sheng Xiao locked his gaze on her.
“Take your medicine.” Yu Huang pa.s.sed the medicine bowl to Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao took the bowl and gulped it down. “Thanks.” Sheng Xiao returned the bowl to Yu Huang
Yu Huang took the medicine bowl and was about to return to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Just as she reached the door, she heard Sheng Xiao say, “You’re lying to me, aren’t you?”
Yu Huang raised her eyebrows.
She turned around and looked at Sheng Xiao. She asked calmly, “What are you talking about?”
Sheng Xiao said, “About moving in together.”
Yu Huang’s expression turned cold and she deliberately frightened him. “Are you trying to use the excuse that you lost your memory to cut ties with me?”
She pretended to be aggrieved and sighed softly. “You also despise me for being ugly and embarra.s.sing, right?”.
Yu Huang chuckled in her heart as she teased
him.
But deep in her heart, she actually cared about this question.
Would Sheng Xiao find her ugly after he lost his memory?
This time, Sheng Xiao was not fooled by Yu Huang’s acting. He pointed out calmly, “I lost my memory and suddenly realized that I have a girlfriend that I love very much. My mind was muddled, so I believed everything you said back then.”
“So, have you sobered up now?” Yu Huang’s tone was sarcastic.
Sheng Xiao was not angry even though Yu Huang made fun of him. He said firmly, “I might have lost my memory, but I know what kind of person I am. There is no doubt that I love you. But I don’t think that we have reached the stage of sharing a bed.”
He stared at the bed sheet beneath him and then at Yu Huang’s body. He said, “I loved you so much, so I definitely couldn’t bear to let you suffer before marriage.”
If he really loved Yu Huang, he would definitely leave the most important step for the most important day. That was Sheng Xiao’s confidence.
Yu Huang was stunned.
She looked down at the liquid at the bottom of the bowl and her lips curled up uncontrollably. “Alright, you’re right.”
Sheng Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. “Why did you lie to me?”
Yu Huang replied innocently, “This is a rare opportunity to bully you.”
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
He felt helpless. “Don’t bully me. In my current state, I will believe anything you say.”
Yu Huang pursed her lips and left with the bowl.
The new students would be reporting in a few days. Yin Rong was the leader of the new students’ welcoming ceremony this year. She found Yu Huang and wanted her to join the welcoming ceremony.
Yu Huang thought about the suffering she went through last year. She felt bitter. “Senior Yin Rong, I’m still too weak. I’m not qualified.”
Yin Rong, Xiao Shu, Lie Gang, and the others, who had partic.i.p.ated in the Freshmen Welcoming Ceremony last year, were all Master-level experts and were all in the top fifty of the expert rankings.
Not to mention that Yu Huang’s cultivation level was at the late-stage Scholar Realm, she had not made it into the top fifty yet.
If she was selected to be the representative, it would be talked about by other students.
How could Yin Rong not understand Yu Huang’s concerns? She told Yu Huang, “I didn’t request you. It was the presidents of the Student Union who recommended you.”
“Really?”
“Yes. You broke into the 86th position on the Expert Ranking as a first-year student. This is an unprecedented example for our academy. Although you have a late-stage Scholar cultivation level, you have also defeated Cai Junqing, who has a Master cultivation level. Moreover, your status as a dual cultivator has already become the new signboard of the Divine Realm Academy. Those new students might have heard of you. If you step forward to teach them a lesson and show them your strength, won’t it be more exciting?”
Yu Huang felt that Yin Rong’s idea was very wicked. She hesitated for a moment, but agreed in the end. “Since no one in the Student Union has any objections, I’m willing to join you guys.”
“Very good. Then on September 1, you will come with us to the beach.”
“Okay.”
After sending Yin Rong off, Yu Huang returned to the employee dormitory while in deep thought. When she thought about how she could represent the academy to meet those new students, she was somewhat excited.
Sheng Xiao was not in a good state these days. He became a patient in the dormitory.
When he saw Yu Huang return happily, he put down the book in his hand and asked curiously, “What happened?”
“I’m representing the academy this year to bully the new students with Senior Yin Rong and the others.”
Sheng Xiao said, “We’re not bullying the freshmen. We’re teaching them.”
“Yes, yes, yes. You gave me a lesson last
year.”
Sheng Xiao was stunned again. “I taught you myself?” He looked at Yu Huang with a strange expression. “I can’t believe I would bear to hurt you.”
“More than that!” Yu Huang said sourly. “You were the most ruthless when it came to beating me up.” At that time, Yu Huang did not think much of it. Now that she thought about it, she suddenly felt that Sheng Xiao was a beast.
How did she fall for such a beast?
Sheng Xiao thought about the same thing as Yu Huang. He was silent for a moment before saying, “It must be because I love you and have the highest expectations for you, so…”
You were the most ruthless when it came to beating me up?
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
“Do you think your words make sense?” Yu Huang sneered. “Feng Si is right. A man who can even beat his own woman up is most likely not a good man.”
“Who is Feng Si?” Sheng Xiao was mesmerized by the unfamiliar name.
Yu Huang said, “My friend, and my a.s.sistant.”
Sheng Xiao frowned. “A man?”
Yu Huang acknowledged it.
Sheng Xiao stroked the book cover gently with his fingers. “I’ve never seen this person before.”
“She’s still outside doing missions. She’s not back yet.” Speaking of which, the new students were about to start school and the mission deadline was up soon. Feng Si was not back yet. Could it be that he had failed the mission?
