C125 Nocturnal conversation (1/2)

”Senior Brother Guo Nan, I am Jin Wuming, and am a fifth year student from the Elder Dugu. May I have a word with you?”

”Alright.”

Guo Nan nodded and led the two into the small courtyard.

Xiao Rou obediently moved out of the chair. Seeing the beautiful, elegant, and refined Xiao Rou, Jin Wuming and Zhu Yang slightly glanced at each other, then immediately shifted their gaze away. Guo Nan was famous for protecting girls and didn't hesitate to challenge Han Fang. He even won, letting Han Fang apologize to him in public.

Right now, there were rumors in the Tianwu Academy that one could even provoke Guo Nan, he was magnanimous and magnanimous enough to just laugh it off, but he definitely could not provoke his woman …

All of the women who were related to Guo Nan were kept away from him.

”Senior Brother Guo Nan, the reason we came to find you was to ask you a question to verify if our guess is right.” The resolute Jin Wuming asked respectfully.

”Speak, we are all members of the Elder Dugu. We should work together to restore the prestige of the Dugu meridian. Please speak your mind, and do not worry about anything.” Guo Nan laughed.

Jin Wuming lightly nodded his head and his face sunk as he said, ”Senior Brother Guo Nan, may I ask about the first stage of the [Carrying Cauldron]? Do you feel that your cauldron is extremely heavy, far more than its actual weight?”

Hearing Jin Wuming's words, Guo Nan was slightly stunned. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Jin Wuming as he asked indifferently: ”What did you discover?”

”Senior Brother Guo Nan, perhaps you are not aware that this Elder Dugu truly admired Zhou Qingshan and had once rewarded him with a drop of Heavy Water. The Heavy Water Bead is extremely precious. Once refined, it would be as light as a feather in Zhou Qingshan's own hands, but when struck out with the force of his fist, it would weigh ten thousand kilograms. Zhu Yang answered.

”Oh? Zhou Qingshan actually had such a good thing? A single drop of Heavy Water Bead, even the worst of it is a low-grade Profound Rank item. ” A touch of coldness appeared on Guo Nan's face, causing both Jin Wuming and Zhu Yang to dare not look at him directly.

Jin Wuming nodded heavily, and said: ”We suspect that Zhou Qingshan did something when you were participating in the [Carrying Furnace] trial. As long as he secretly placed the Heavy Water Bead into the cauldron, no one would know about it, and you would not be able to move it. After you retreat, no one will be able to discover if he quietly absorbs that drop of heavy water. ”

Hearing Jin Wuming's words, Guo Nan's eyes turned cold, and he coldly said: ”What you're saying, do you have solid evidence?”

”To be honest, no.” Jin Wuming laughed bitterly and shook his head, before saying, ”We are only suspecting, and do not know what the truth is. Senior Brother Guo Nan, you can pretend that we didn't say anything about this matter and spend some time to pay attention.

Guo Nan squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded his head to Jin Wuming and Zhu Yang: ”Thank you for telling me this, I will take care of this. None of the people who set me up will be able to escape.”

After Jin Wuming and Zhu Yang left, Guo Nan sat alone in the small courtyard. After thinking for a while, he said to himself: ”Tomorrow, all the people under that old fellow's bloodline will gather together and conduct monthly lectures. He took the chance and confronted Zhou Qingshan! Today I asked Han Fang to surrender, and everyone under the Dugu meridian are congratulating me. Only Zhou Qingshan is emitting killing intent. ”

”That Zhou Qingshan, how narrow-minded, didn't he just lose one match of swords, is he worth framing me? At that time, I already thought it was strange. The cauldron is unusually heavy, and it was within reason that he did something about it. ”

”Jin Wuming and Zhu Yang definitely have some distance to go with Zhou Qingshan, they want to use Zhou Qingshan to kill me, they are not too far off from it, even if they are treated as blades, I still have to do it.”

At a quarter to ten in the afternoon, Guo Nan was currently cultivating in his courtyard, when he heard the indiscernible sound of footsteps.

Guo Nan opened his eyes, a bright light flashing within.

Borrowing the hazy moonlight, he jumped out of the small courtyard. After he clearly saw the person who had arrived, he made a ”Follow me” gesture and took the lead to leave the encampment of the Dugu Chong bloodline, arriving at the edge of the rock pile.
