Chapter 187: Chapter 188 Ignoring Xiao Jiuyuan
Xiao Jiuyuan was very familiar with the layout of the library. Whenever he was free, he would go to the library of Galan Academy to study spirit arrays. Sometimes he would even take one or two books home with him. Usually, the library guards wouldn’t say anything about him borrowing books.
This time around, he went to a specific area of the library and found a superior spirit energy evoking manual after a brief search. Immediately after getting the book, he turned and walked toward the exit.
However, after a few steps, he stopped and turned to the other side. Soon, he stood in front of a row of bookshelves. After looking through them carefully, he grabbed a cultivation method manual from the bookshelf.
Seeing Xiao Jiuyuan walk out of the library while holding two books , the gatekeeper merely bowed respectfully and let him leave without saying anything.
After Xiao Jiuyuan left, the doors to the library were closed again.
With the two books in hand, Xiao Jiuyuan went all the way to the northeastern side of the library. Soon he came to where Yun Qianyu was waiting and said, “Well, let’s go.”
Hearing Xiao Jiuyuan say that, Yun Qianyu came out of her hiding place. They then took a remote road in the Galan Academy until they finally came to a crossroads with a carriage waiting for them. It was Xiao Jiuyuan’s carriage.
After Xiao Jiuyuan and Yun Qianyu got in the carriage, the carriage drove straight to the gate of Galan Academy.
In the carriage, Xiao Jiuyuan handed the two books to Yun Qianyu and said, “Here you are.”
Yun Qianyu was stunned because she had expected to only get one book.
After getting hold of the books, she found that one of the books was a superior spirit energy evoking manual, and the other was a cultivation manual. The name of the cultivation manual was ‘Yin-Yang Blood Palm’.
Not expecting to receive two books from Xiao Jiuyuan, Yun Qianyu felt happy and thankful. She looked toward Xiao Jiuyuan and was about to express her appreciation, however, before she could say anything, Xiao Jiuyuan’s flat tone was heard.
“This Prince never treats people unfairly. Even if you are my chess piece, I will not treat you badly. I promised you previously that I would give you a spirit energy evoking manual after you saved General Feng Teng. Since you also saved the lives of my soldiers, I decided to give you a cultivation manual for your service. Now the scores are settled.”
Xiao Jiuyuan’s words made Yun Qianyu pause and think for a second. At the same time, it reminded Yun Qianyu of one thing: She didn’t need to be grateful to this guy. The fact that she got a cultivation manual was all because of her own skills. If she had not been able to save those soldiers, Xiao Jiuyuan might have even killed her.
Thinking about it this way, Yun Qianyu felt happy about it, “You’re right, I worked for this. I deserve this.”
After saying that, she turned to the new books she got and paid no attention to Xiao Jiuyuan. This made Xiao Jiuyuan feel a little unhappy, but he didn’t know why he was dissatisfied. Even though it was him who made things clear between them, he still felt depressed seeing that Yun Qianyu did not appreciate him at all.
Xiao Jiuyuan thought about it while looking at Yun Qianyu with his dark pupils. With a white veil covering her face, Yun Qianyu looked graceful and beautiful while she quietly studied the books.
Seeing how Yun Qianyu was totally focused on the books and had completely forgotten about his presence, Xiao Jiuyuan’s heart felt a little cold.
‘When has anyone ever ignored me like this? Am I changing?’
