Big Head Yang added, “That’s right. Why don’t you just say that it’s immortal cultivation? Isn’t this more exciting than cultivation?”
“That makes sense. Immortal cultivation sounds better.” Lin Xiao nodded in agreement. Then, he asked, “Do you mean that my uncle usually read novels or studied these groundless immortal cultivation books and researched himself until he became stupid, which is why he became like this?”
“Shut up, both of you. Go up and stay there.” Xu Jiajia glared at the two of them, while the others could not be bothered with them.
Just as everyone was discussing this matter, a figure passed through the crowd and appeared in front of everyone. It was none other than the anxious Chen Jie. “Where is Su Yun? How is he?” After passing through the crowd, Chen Jie asked anxiously. However, she immediately saw the dazed Su Yun not far away. Her eyes flashed with pity. She tried her best to control her emotions and asked the person beside her, “Su Yun… still hasn’t gotten any better?”
Seeing that the person who came was a professor of archeology at Hibiscus City University and also the youngest professor at Hibiscus City University, the principal immediately sighed and shook his head. “Professor Chen, how are you feeling?”
The principal had already found out what had happened to Chen Jie. When Chen Jie returned, she was sent to the hospital for a checkup. After confirming that she was fine, she returned to the university.
As for the matter between Chen Jie and Su Yun, he had just been informed today. He had not learned about it previously due to confidentiality reasons.
Chen Jie shook her head, indicating that she was fine. At this moment, the principal could not help but feel puzzled. He looked at Chen Jie and asked,
“Professor Chen, when you and Su Yun were in trouble, did Su Yun do anything strange, such as cultivation?”
When Principal Gao asked this question, it meant that he had also listened to Professor Lü’s words. All the clues seemed to point to the word ‘cultivation’, but Chen Jie really could not give a key answer to this. She only expressed that Su Yun had been constantly practicing his saber, and that this was the only way for them to leave their predicament.
Later, when she was unconscious, she vaguely saw Su Yun cleaving open a path of survival and climbing to the top of the cliff with her. Only then did they escape. But the memory was so vague that she couldn’t tell if it was a fantasy.
“A wooden saber cleaving a mountain wall. This is in line with the uniqueness and strength Su Yun previously displayed.”
“If he didn’t cultivate, how did Su Yun obtain such unimaginable abilities?”
“However, this is still somewhat different from the longevity and cultivation of spells described in the ancient books.”
Everyone was confused about this. Although all kinds of clues pointed to cultivation, this was too ridiculous. In addition, there was no substantial evidence to prove this. No one present dared to assert this, but they did not dare to doubt it again.
Through her inquiry, Chen Jie learned that Su Yun had been constantly on parade recently. This was also the only hope for Su Yun to recover. Chen Jie quickly made a decision. She took off her work pass and handed it to the principal beside her. “Su Yun saved my life. It is also partly because of me that he became like this. I want to take a long leave. No matter where Su Yun goes, I’m to accompany him until he recovers!”
The principal did not refuse. After all, this was human nature. Everyone could understand. However, Xu Jiajia and Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Chen Jie curiously. Somehow, they seemed to have sensed something.
Su Yun finally snapped out of his daze. He moved again and headed downstairs. When everyone saw this, they quickly made way. Zhou Nanhai also whispered to the principal. “Right now, all our judgments are just guesses. However, there should be a reason why Su Yun chose The Secret of the Golden Flower under such circumstances. Before the truth is revealed, 1 hope that your school can focus on protecting this book. It might be useful in the future.’
Gao Bo quickly nodded and said seriously, “Don’t worry, I’ll immediately send this book to the fourth floor.” No teachers or students were allowed to enter the fourth floor. The door was locked all year round and could not be read without approval. This book would be very safe there. “As long as Su Yun can recover, we are willing to cooperate fully.”
When Zhou Nanhai heard this, he nodded in relief and looked at Su Yun worriedly. Su Yun’s eyes turned chaotic once again. It was to the extent that when someone approached, the vicious aura on his body would burst out even more intensely.
Xu Jiajia and the rest hurriedly urged the people behind to make way for Su Yun to walk out step by step. When he walked out of the library again, the sun shone on Su Yun’s face. Somehow, it also brought a feeling of a lifetime to the people who had been tense just now. There was no change in the final outcome. Everyone’s expectations were once again dashed.
Zhou Nanhai sighed inwardly. He forced himself to smile and shake the principal’s hand. “Principal Gao, thank you for your cooperation.”
Gao Bo quickly shook his head and said that this was what he should do. He learned about Su Yun from Zhou Nanhai. Although he did not know the inside story or what had happened, he only knew that Su Yun seemed to have become a hero of Munan City. He was highly valued by the country..
