"Lingyan, where did you buy all this food? Tell me quickly, I'll have someone pack a lot for me next time I leave the academy." While eating, he didn't forget to ask where the food was bought. He was still thinking about the next meal!
"This is made by my maid. The ingredients used are all very high-quality, and there are also some spiritual plants. It is very rich in spiritual energy, so it is naturally delicious."
"Ah~ Can you lend me Lingyan's maid? I'll return her to you when she makes me something delicious." Song Xing asked desperately, hoping that Gu Lingyan would have a change of heart and lend her maid to him.
"If you really like it, I'll ask him to teach your chef, and then you can eat it however you want."
Gu Lingyan didn't want to lend Gu Ningyu out. Besides, Gu Ningyu was still young and her cultivation was low. It was not safe for her to go to someone else's house.
"That's a good idea. Let's make a deal. Next time we leave the academy, you'll give that little girl to me for a few days so my cook can learn well."
Gu Lingyan said calmly, "No problem, but you have to ensure his safety."
"Of course."
"Your food looks delicious, can I try it?"
"Tsk, stop pretending. You're talking about high-end ingredients. How could someone like you, with no family background or connections, possibly have access to high-end ingredients? You shouldn't even find a good excuse for lying."
Shangguan Feiyu and Liu Yan'er spoke at the same time. Shangguan Feiyu spoke naturally, without any embarrassment in asking others for food, while Liu Yan'er naturally had a look of disdain on her face. Even if she believed that sows could climb trees, she would not believe that a poor person like Gu Lingyan had high-quality ingredients.
After hearing Shangguan Feiyu's words, Liu Yan'er looked incredulous, as if Shangguan Feiyu had betrayed her: "Shangguan Feiyu, you actually fell in love with this kind of junk food."
"This is my business, it has nothing to do with you."
"Okay, okay, okay, Gu Lingyan, don't think that I can't do anything to you because Song Xing and Shangguan Feiyu are protecting you. If you have the ability, don't leave the academy." Liu Yan'er started to speak harshly when she couldn't win the argument.
"Liu Yan'er, I don't think you understand the situation. Right now, I'm the strongest in the Boys' Yard. You're not afraid of what I might do to you. Tell me, if I do something to you, will others be able to save you in time?"
"You, you dare, I am from the Liu family."
Gu Lingyan slowly approached Liu Yan'er and said, "Why should I be afraid? You're just a concubine's daughter, with a little talent. I believe there are many people in your Liu family with your talent. Losing one of them won't be a big deal to them."
"Ah, I was wrong, Gu Lingyan, I'm sorry." Liu Yan'er was frightened by Gu Lingyan and apologized repeatedly, but the hatred in her eyes was no less.
"Okay, get out of here now."
In this critical moment, Gu Lingyan didn't want to offend anyone too much. No matter what, she had to wait until her strength was higher.
"Eat it if you like it!" Gu Lingyan looked at Shangguan Feiyu and took out a few more dishes.
It was rare for Shangguan Feiyu to take the initiative to contact Gu Lingyan, so Gu Lingyan naturally would not miss this opportunity.
I didn’t expect that Shangguan Feiyu is also a hidden foodie.
"Lingyan, these ingredients are indeed very high-quality. This is the meat of a fifth-level Lingxi! And this, it's the horn of a sixth-level white-horned deer, right? These are all rare and valuable items, plus there are many third- and fourth-level spiritual plants in it."
"After taking a sip of the soup, I feel my body warm and full of spiritual energy. Some of the other dishes have the effect of warming the meridians, and some have the effect of detoxifying and beautifying the skin. Gu Lingyan, I have decided. I will follow you in the future."
Gu Lingyan didn't expect that she could win over Shangguan Feiyu with just one meal. It was really effortless.
"Don't worry, I will protect you too. You are my friend."
"Okay." What else could Gu Lingyan do? Of course she agreed!
"Hey, Shangguan Feiyu, didn't you want to be friends with Lingyan before? How come you were so subdued by just one meal?" Song Xing looked at Shangguan Feiyu angrily.
Shangguan Feiyu blurted out: "It was eaten by a dog."
This time, Gu Lingyan and Song Xing were really shocked.
Song Xing, Gu Lingyan: I didn’t expect you to be like this, Shangguan Feiyu.
Shangguan Feiyu stiffly changed the subject: "Haha, let's eat quickly, otherwise the food will get cold later."
Gu Lingyan: I asked my brother to practice calligraphy on this. It’s a magical tool that keeps the food warm. How could the food get cold?
Over the course of a meal, the three of them established a deep friendship.
Gu Lingyan entered the space to practice as usual in the evening and continued to go to class the next day.
School has just started these days, and the academy is currently teaching them how to practice and control spiritual energy, so they have classes for many consecutive days.
"Classmates, today we have a new teacher in our academy. Let me introduce her to you. Please give a round of applause to welcome Nan Jing, Teacher Nan."
What came into Gu Lingyan's eyes was a familiar figure, and she almost stood up with excitement.
The two looked into each other's eyes. Nangong Xuze saw Gu Lingyan's excitement, and the smile in Nangong Xuze's eyes was also accurately captured by Gu Lingyan.
Gu Lingyan: I haven't seen this guy in a long time. Why is he here hiding his identity? He even became a teacher at my academy. Since he's hiding his identity, I won't expose him.
"Director Jin, are you kidding me? He doesn't look much older than us. How can he be our teacher?"
The students below saw that Nangong Xuze was not much older than them, so they naturally protested.
"This is someone the dean specially recruited to be your teacher. He's naturally qualified to teach you. Otherwise, why would the dean waste his energy?"
Jin Huan sighed. Actually, he didn't want to accept this 13-year-old teacher, but the dean said that he came from a prominent family and had a very high level of cultivation, so naturally he didn't dare to object. Of course, even if he objected, it would be useless.
"If you're not convinced, you can challenge me. If I lose, I'll leave. How about that?"
Nangong Xuze saw that some people opposed him, so he decided to make an example of someone to scare them.
"You are older than us, and your cultivation level is higher than ours. We definitely cannot defeat you in a one-on-one fight."
"You're absolutely right. How about this? You can all come together as a class, and I'll let you have one hand. How about that?"
How's that? What do you mean? This is too much! He actually asked them all to attack together, and even asked them to use only one hand. Everyone was furious. Nangong Xuze instantly ignited everyone's anger and dealt a heavy blow to their self-esteem. Of course, this did not include Gu Lingyan.
But this is also an opportunity for a competition. Since he gave her this chance, she and her classmates will challenge him together!
"This place is too small. I'm afraid you won't be able to perform your moves. Let's go to the open space over there." Nangong Xuze said sympathetically.
