"Whoa, Ju Zi, I never would've guessed. This Huo Yuhao looks harmless enough, but he's ruthless when he gets down to business. After what he did, Tan Yunlong won't be able to show his face in the academy anymore," Ke Ke said to Ju Zi in astonishment.
A gleam flashed through Ju Zi's beautiful, formerly languid eyes. "All those followers who supported Ling Tian and Tan Yunlong will see which way the wind is blowing now. Tan Yunlong has suffered such humiliation, and his future in the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Tool Hall is ruined. The tide has turned against him. Two sword strikes crippled the Tan Family's future, and a single wager destroyed Tan Yunlong's reputation. The skies over all of Mingdu are about to change."
"Doesn't that make this our opportunity too? Ling Tian and Tan Yunlong both belong to the Third Prince's faction, and now the Crown Prince's side..." Ke Ke was about to continue when Ju Zi shot her a fierce glare. Realizing that there were too many people and listening ears around, she quickly shut her mouth.
"With the Tan Family's hope for the future crippled, Huo Yuhao will probably come under some pressure. But the academy must have thought of that too. They should assign people to protect him." Ke Ke stuck out her delicate little tongue and changed the subject.
Ju Zi's eyes flickered as though she were pondering something. Only after a long while did she gently shake her head. "Perhaps he doesn't need any help at all."
After thanking Zhang Muzhi, Huo Yuhao left the open ground with Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan, and the three returned to the cafeteria. Ju Zi and Ke Ke chatted with Huo Yuhao for a while before heading to their Soul Tool Research laboratory
