"I wouldn't possibly know what the principal is busy with." Tan Xing remained very wary and didn't say much. He just led the way. "This way, please."
But Guan Yi knew that Tan Xing had already made arrangements. On his way in, at least 30 highly skilled fighters were hiding in the dark.
Of course, these fighters were considered highly skilled to Tan Xing, but to Guan Yi, they were not a threat at all. They wouldn't even be able to stop him from walking.
He wasn't bothered by the wariness the other party was displaying. He wasn't here to kill anybody anyway.
After walking into the backyard with Tan Xing, he spotted a training room from afar. It stood by itself at the back of the backyard and the two Chinese parasoltrees were blown from side to side, its leaves rustling noisily.
"This way please." Tan Xing stretched his hand out to show the way, then walked away.
Guan Yi walked towards the training room. The closer he went, the more he could feel that powerful yet suppressed energy coming from it. A tremendous amount of power existed inside, but it was being held back.
His pupils constricted because he didn't know what was happening.
That power was very frightening, but it disappeared in an instant, as if it had never been there before. This creepy feeling made him put his disdain aside, and he was now more careful.
"The 13th Court Court Chief of the Underworld, Guan Yi, greets the principal of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy," he said very humbly and cupped his fists.
"Please come in."
The door opened by itself.
Guan Yi's eyes lit up, but he didn't say anything and walked right in.
The training room was spacious, but there was only one table right in the middle. Jiang Ning was seated there.
When he first saw Jiang Ning, Guan Yi was a little taken aback. How could this man be so young? He probably wasn't even 30, right?
This man could actually fight Greedy Wolf?
He suddenly started getting a little doubtful.
Guan Yi walked over. "You're Jiang Ning."
"You've come all the way here, so I'm sure you know who I am," said Jiang Ning.
"Take a seat."
Guan Yi sat down with hesitation across from Jiang Ning.
"It's true that I don't know you. It took me quite a bit to finally get your name," said Guan Yi. "It's been a long time since I last left the Underworld after all."
He was observing Jiang Ning's expression, waiting to see what sort of reaction Jiang
Ning would have after he said these words. But Jiang Ning didn't react at all.
"Aren't you curious about what sort of place the Underworld is?"
"I'm not interested," said Jiang Ning as he shook his head.
"Then why did you let me in?"
"Anyone from outside Donghai is a guest," replied Jiang Ning calmly. "I can't possibly just leave you outside, right?"
Guan Yi frowned slightly. He didn't
expect Jiang Ning to react this way. He hadn't even flinched when he heard the words 'the Underworld'. Was he just putting on an act?
But it was pretty remarkable for someone to put up such a good act in front of him.
He tried to see if there was any
change in emotion on Jiang Ning's face and gaze, but he was disappointed. Jiang Ning was so calm, he was as good as a glass of plain water.
"Aren't you going to ask me why I've come looking for you?" asked Guan Yi.
"There's no need to ask." Jiang Ning laughed quietly. "You will tell me yourself. If you don't want to say it, I'm not interested in knowing either."
His calm and unbothered demeanor made Guan Yi a little annoyed. He didn't expect Jiang Ning to remain so passive.
He had no idea that behaving like this was child's play to Jiang Ning.Original content from .
Guan Yi started to hesitate. If he
took the initiative to start this discussion, then he would lose the upper hand. But if he didn't say anything, Jiang Ning wasn't going to
budge either.
He didn't know what sort of person Jiang Ning was, and Jiang Ning didn't understand him either. The difference was that Jiang Ning could afford not to care. But he couldn't.
He had already betrayed Greedy Wolf and was in danger of losing his life. He had no time to waste.
Guan Yi suddenly felt a shudder in his heart. He looked at Jiang Ning and felt like Jiang Ning had seen right through him!
