The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss

“Did you forget about the rules in our academy? The Warlock Division is not somewhere a student can go without explicit permission.” Qi Xia had confessed about their plans almost immediately, but Ouyang Huanyu already knew that they were not Yun Qi students. Three of them were the top student in their respective divisions, and Tang Nazhi and Shen Jue were first-year students from the Herbalist Division. All five students were very talented in their chosen paths, and so they would not have joined the Warlock Division midway through their studies.

So, the probability of any of them to Yun Qi’s student was zero.

“I’m very sorry. We were merely curious, but I guarantee that there will not be a next time.” It was rather unusual for Qi Xia to admit his mistakes so quickly.

However, Tang Nazhi and his other two companions quietly made their way to Qi Xia and lowered their heads as they listened to Ouyang Huanyu’s lecture.

They behaved as if they were five mischievous students who were caught red-handed as they did something naughty.

Even though Ouyang Huanyu had not taught any students for a long time, but as a dean, he still had to keep an eye out for rising talents in the academy.

Except for Shen Jue, the rest were all young masters from the five great aristocratic families. Since they had to uphold their noble standings, it was entirely impossible that they would walk the dangerous path of a warlock.

“I shall overlook it this time, but you had better return to your dormitories right now. If I catch anyone else trying to do the same thing again, I will definitely mete out the punishments.” Ouyang Huanyu did not want to make things difficult for the youngsters. They were still young, and they could progress into geniuses that the world had rarely seen. Their progress in their paths could increase the average of the students in their respective divisions in the Saint Laurent Academy.

“Thank you, Dean!”

“Why are you still here?” Ouyang Huanyu chased them away hurriedly. He did not want that trivial incident to wreck his chances of capturing the apprentice warlock.

“Yes, we’ll leave right now!” The five of them immediately disappeared from Ouyang Huanyu’s sight.

Shen Yanxiao was dumbstruck with that sudden change in her plans as Qi Xia dragged her with him.

However, they did not return to their dormitories immediately. Instead, they brought Shen Yanxiao to a pavilion in the Saint Laurent Academy’s garden.

Shen Yanxiao sighed discreetly as she looked at the four youths in front of her.

Qi Xia stood there with his arms crossed, but he had a calm and serene expression on his face as he stared at Shen Yanxiao. He leaned toward her, and with a sly smile, he said, “What should we call you then, Shen Jue or Xiao Yan? Or perhaps you go by another name?”

Qi Xia’s words startled Shen Yanxiao.

It meant that he already knew of Yan Xiao’s identity.

Tang Nazhi had an odd expression on his face. He looked at Shen Yanxiao, and then at Qi Xia. Then he pulled Qi Xia away from Shen Yanxiao and muttered, “It’s the middle of the night. You shouldn’t scare him.”

Qi Xia shrugged and continued to look at Shen Yanxiao. He said, “When we were at the Archer Division, we thought that Xiao Yan looked very similar to you. I didn’t pay much attention back then. But when you were sick and took leave from your classes in the Herbalist Division, Xiao Yan also mysteriously cut a few classes for the same duration. Don’t you think that it’s just too much of a coincidence, Little Jue?”
