Chapter 1761 A Beautiful Misunderstanding
Hearing that his Master punished him to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors, Helian Qiguang's first reaction was sullenness and anger.
However, after seeing the look Master gave him, he immediately understood the real reason why Master punished him to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors. His original sullen anger instantly turned into gratitude.
"Yes, I know my mistake. I'll definitely reflect on myself and won't disappoint you again, Master."
After saying that, Helian Qiguang bowed respectfully to Liao Zhenshan, then glared at Lu Zijia and left Hongtian Academy angrily.
Du He stared at Liao Zhenshan for a while, as if he wanted to see something from his expression, but after a while, he still didn't get anything.
Seeing that he couldn't see through the other man, Du He stopped struggling and said to Lu Zijia on the side amiably, "Lass, are you going back to the Martial Arts Department? Do you want to leave with us?"
Even though Du He couldn't be sure of the main reason for Liao Zhenshan's abnormality today, he could vaguely sense that it might be related to Lu Zijia.
Knowing that Du He wanted to protect her and prevent more people from doing something at this moment, Lu Zijia nodded without hesitation. "Thank you, Dean."
As soon as she finished talking, Lu Zijia suddenly thought of something. She threw the jade bottle with the seven Mystic Golden Core Pills in her hand to Du Yu, who was looking at her eagerly under the ring.
Lu Zijia also returned the remaining spiritual plants.
Du Yu looked at the jade bottle in her left hand and then at the few brocade boxes in her right hand. In the end, she gritted her teeth and made a decision.
"Junior Sister Lu, thank you for helping me refine the Mystic Golden Core Pill. I'll give you the remaining spiritual plants, on behalf of the Du family. Consider it our Du family's gratitude to you, Junior Sister Lu," Du Yu said as she threw the few brocade boxes in her right hand back to Lu Zijia.
However, Lu Zijia waved her hand gently and pushed the brocade boxes back.
"No, I said it's free, so I won't ask for payment."
Lu Zijia shook her head and said with a smile, "Besides, you helped me. I should be the one thanking you. Here, I thank you again for your trust."
Even though she was a miserly person, she was still very reasonable.
Besides, they had already agreed on this beforehand. How could they go back on their word?
Du Yu didn't expect Lu Zijia, a genius alchemist, to be so humble at all. She didn't even want the high-level spiritual plants that came to her door.
She was really noble and Spirit Stones were like trash to her!
It had to be said that this was really a beautiful misunderstanding…
Before Du Yu said anything else, Lu Zijia reminded her, "Senior Sister, it's probably not safe for you to go back alone. Let's send a message and get someone to pick you up."
Seven Mystic Golden Core Pills were enough to make many people have evil thoughts.
If Du Yu walked out of the academy like this, she would probably be robbed in less than half an hour.
After being reminded by Lu Zijia, Du Yu suddenly realized that countless burning gazes were looking at her at this moment, making her hair stand on end!
This time, Du Yu couldn't be bothered to thank Lu Zijia anymore and hurriedly sent a message to her father.
Many people with other thoughts in the crowd saw this and a hint of regret flashed through their eyes.
However, regrets were regrets. No matter how bold they were, they wouldn't dare to snatch things from the academy again. Besides, there were still many deans and teachers present!
"Wait."
When Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan were about to return to the Martial Arts Department with Du He, Liao Zhenshan suddenly stopped them.
"Liao Zhenshan, what are you up to this time?"
Du He looked at Liao Zhenshan with an unfriendly gaze.
