Chapter 1424: Chapter 1423: Discussion

Yan Jingxun’s position allowed him to see Nie Jiaqi, and seeing the venom in her eyes, he couldn’t help but squint a little. He straightened his body, shoved both hands into his pants pockets, and turned to leave.

On the other side, Luo Yirui suddenly felt something, shifted his gaze, and looked around, but didn’t spot anyone.

For an instant, that presence gave him a sense of hair-standing unease. Was it an illusion?

Meanwhile, the spot where Nie Jiaqi had been was already vacant.

"Let’s go have a meal together," suggested the Fu Xuan Pavilion.

A group of young boys and girls intercepted an electric scooter and headed towards a nearby restaurant.

"Can Boss Jing come out? Let’s call him to join us," said the Little Fatty.

Though young, all of them were especially fond of Chinese cuisine, and therefore went to a Chinese restaurant.

In the restaurant, Jia Xiaoyu was dining with people from his sect, this time he naturally had the qualification to attend the exchange meeting, but unfortunately not the qualification to compete.

Every time he watched the competition, his heart would surge with excitement.

Next time.

He must participate next time!

He had that confidence because he had already taken a crucial step two days ago!

Given his age, taking that step was truly remarkable, especially among the second-tier sects, he was considered outstanding.

With a youthful mindset, if Jia Xiaoyu only interacted with those around him, he might have started to feel arrogant, but look at whom he was associating with.

Luo Yirui, Hou Baiyu, Fu Xuan Pavilion...

Even Zu Yan, the least among them, had already taken that step a long time ago, waiting to succeed with the Spiritual Talisman.

Now adding Jing Changle, this one who keeps under the radar, was once the pride of the first major sect, Pengge Sect!

If anyone in this group could still feel unfounded confidence, they must have a thick skin.

"Did you guys hear? The Peng Pavilion Pride had his spirit damaged; he’s a cripple!"

"That’s a real pity. I heard my dad say that back then, the Peng Pavilion Pride attracted great attention. It was said that if he grew up smoothly, he might even become a super family like the Mi Family!"

"But sadly, there are no such ’ifs.’ Living but isn’t he a waste now?"

"A starved camel is bigger than a horse; in any case, he should be stronger than most people, right?"

"Not necessarily. Damaging the spirit isn’t a normal injury; it affects the root. I heard the one who diagnosed him was Elder Leng from Pengge Sect, who’s most skilled in the Spiritual Domain."

Young people in notable families and major sects are all aware of such famous personalities.

Jia Xiaoyu kept his head down, shoveling food into his bowl silently, listening to the conversations among his fellow sect members at the table.

Recalling the gentle and jade-like Jing Changle, Jia Xiaoyu remained silent. He always felt that things weren’t as simple as they seemed on the surface, considering how complex things were even within their second-tier sect. In the top major families, it’s probably even more complicated.

Jing Changle’s identity was suddenly exposed; he was left a bit dumbfounded. He had a fair understanding of Boss Jing, who isn’t the type to flaunt himself, even if he wanted to return to the Pengge Sect, this wouldn’t be the timing he’d choose.

Thus, someone must have deliberately set it this way, but he couldn’t figure out the motive.

Though he never doubted the spirit damage since such a thing couldn’t be faked, the extent might not be as severe as imagined.

Jia Xiaoyu’s thoughts on such matters were also chaotic, but one thing was for sure, no matter what, if he could be of help, he would give his utmost to assist.
