Nian Qiuyan hadn't lied. When he and Xing Chun arrived, they really had run into a Legalism School Instructor.
The instructor had also come to the infirmary to ask whether anyone had seen the Legalism disciples who'd been fighting. Shi Yuezhen smiled and shook her head, saying she hadn't seen anyone. Yu Sui and the others said the same.
Only then did the instructor leave.
Xia Feichen was placed in the room next to Li Jinshuang's.
In his fight with Gu Gan earlier, both of them had used Judgment Technique: Lingchi. But because of Mysterious Technique: Celestial Official, Xia Feichen's Lingchi had been dispelled, while Gu Gan's Wind Blade had left him badly wounded.
Although Gu Gan's Mysterious Technique: Celestial Official had been exposed, there were always people who paid no attention to the academy's rumors and knew nothing about it. Xia Feichen knew, but Gu Gan's sudden attack had given him no time or opportunity to create distance.
The Lingchi had lasted only a short while, but its power was immense. In the blink of an eye, the Wind Blades had left Xia Feichen drenched in blood, his flesh mangled.
Xing Chun helped carry him into a side room, and Shi Yuezhen began cleaning his wounds.
Cang Shu had been busy with the Nongjia examinations lately and rarely came by. Xing Chun and the others came to the infirmary to eat, and whenever Shi Yuezhen was too busy, they could lend a hand.
Mei Chengyu didn't like tending to people's wounds, so he sat at the table and opened the food box Xing Chun had brought.
Nian Qiuyan ambled over and sat down at the table.
Yu Sui followed Shi Yuezhen into the side room to help carry water, pass her tools, and so on.
Xia Feichen sat on
