Chapter 61
It turned out that Meng Hao had been disabled by the attack of the demon bats on the airship, since his right shoulder was severely injured. Because of the disability, he couldn’t use swords anymore. He was right-handed, so he couldn’t use swords with his left hand, either. Like this, the man who used to be a genius became mediocre, even worse than an average man.
Of course he wouldn’t be able to join the Swordquest School, but he was reluctant to go back in that state, too, so he just stayed in Ninedragons, idling around.
“Where are your two friends?” Jiang Chen asked out of curiosity.
Meng Hao had a painful expression on his face when Jiang Chen brought up this topic. He finished the liquor in his glass and started to tell Jiang Chen the story.
When he finally finished, Jiang Chen said, “In another word, those two abandoned you and became a couple after you saved them at such a great cost?”
“Ye Xiu was never my girl friend. We didn’t have anything to do with each other.” Meng Hao forced himself to smile, feeling a bitterness that he couldn’t even describe.
Jiang Chen recalled the way that Ye Xiu had looked at Meng Hao when they were on the ship. Her look was so tender and amorous.
“Your arm? Has your arm recovered?!” Shi Tian exclaimed.
He wasn’t happy to see this.
He took a look at Ye Xiu, whose face was unreadable, and said, “Even so, you can’t join the Swordquest School now. I’ll have the entire year to pass you.”
“I’m afraid I have to disappoint you, because I am headed for the Natural Law School right now,” Meng Hao said.
“You’re headed for the Natural Law School? But how?” Both Ye Xiu and Shi Tian were shocked.
“With me.” Jiang Chen came striding over. He had heard the conversation and couldn’t stand Shi Tian at all.
“Meng Hao will improve rapidly at the Natural Law School. After a year, you won’t even be able to look up to him.”
This was obvious. Meng Hao had always been more excellent than Shi Tian, and the Natural Law School was way better than the Swordquest School.
Ye Xiu regretted her decisions. She hadn’t expected Meng Hao to recover one day.
When he saw this woman’s face, Jiang Chen felt Meng Hao and he were experiencing the same emotions.
Ye Xiu reminded him of Su Qian, and Su Qian reminded him of the pretty woman in wedding dress.
Are all women the same? Seemingly in love, but they suddenly turn hostile at the drop of a hat?
“Let’s go.”
Meng Hao felt better when he saw Shi Tian’s look. He left the inn with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen let out a sigh and looked up to the sky.
The channel of the Planes World was up in the sky.
“Sacred Zone, I’ll be back!”
Jiang Chen swore to himself that he would find that woman and settle all of their old scores!
