The Pembarker of Eternity

CHAPT 23'S. Hope Xiao Wu Jie

"Where have you been? I'm so worried something happened to you" Yang San was in front of the academy's gate since earlier.

It turned out that when Xiao Wu Jie and Zhang Ma were about to exit the gate, Yang San already knew about it first when he was about to go lock the gate. He waited for the two to be there for fear that it would be a problem if someone else knew.

After a while of waiting, he only saw the first Zhang Ma back. But when asked, Zhang Ma only reasoned that Xiao Wu Jie asked him to go home first because he wanted to be alone.

"I've seen the teacher's sight, I'm bored so I went there to entertain myself"

"Well if so, at least nothing happened to you. Let's get in before the guards come in"

After entering the gate, Yang San ordered that Xiao Wu Jie come to his residence after changing clothes.

The dormitory looked quiet from outside because the rain was still very heavy, no one who wanted to roam all were in their respective rooms.

After arriving at his dorm, the gripping atmosphere was very felt. There was no warm welcome as usual.

Zhang Ma and Zhang Qi were seen chatting about the moves they had just learned while practicing weapons in their respective rooms.

No one noticed even greeting Xiao Wu Jie. However, as if it was unperturbed, Xiao Wu Jie walked over to the cupboard to pick up the clothes and immediately changed his wet clothes.

"I've been opening my second nerve Qi since 6 months ago, I'm sure I can open the third one at the time of the last test, do you believe?" Zhang Qi said in a voice that seemed to be raised.

"Of course." Zhang Ma replied steadily as he once glanced towards Xiao Wu Jie.

Xiao Wu Jie just shook his head, knowing that Zhang Ma must have told Zhang Qi about himself.

He did not feel astonished at Zhang Qi's such attitude because Zhang Qi would basically demean people who looked weaker than him.

After he finished changing clothes, Xiao Wu Jie was about to immediately make his way to Yang San's residence. Because it still rained, he chose to go through the corridor to get there so as not to get wet.

After arriving, as usual Xiao Wu Jie was warmly welcomed by the interior scenery in Yang San's residence.

"Greetings teacher, Wu Jie is facing" Xiao Wu Jie saw Yang San was making something.

"Ahh Wu Jie please sit down first, I'm making warm tea do you want?"

"Hmm if the teacher doesn't mind if I want to or if the teacher wants me to help?"

"Ahh no need, I just don't want you to spend my precious tea hahaha."

Xiao Wu Jie did not show the slightest expression. Because it was busy making tea, Yang San did not pay attention to it.

"Ahh by the way how is your Qi nerve? have you opened the third one yet?"

Yang San's question was deeply in Wu Jie's heart. As if you already know that's a very appropriate question with his current condition

"Don't the teacher know?"

"Ahh finally my delicious tea so too, nahh how was that your question?"

Yang San smiled as he smelled the tea "Ahh yes that I already know..."

"Well how does the teacher respond? do I have to immediately forget about my desire to become a core disciple?"

Yang San narrowed his eyes "Ohh why should it be so? You just have to be more and more sure that you're going to be a core disciple"

"How come? is the teacher trying to trick me?" I see anger in that question.

"Heyy what's wrong with you?! you're that special. I'm sure your parents knew you had it"

"What does the teacher mean?"

"You don't know yet..." Yang San sipped his still hot tea "Ahhh very tasty... So according to my observations you have the ability to absorb the rare purest Qi energy. When you were born, that ability could be seen from your aura that was different from that of an ordinary baby. When opening the first nerve, that ability makes you have to absorb a huge amount of Qi energy to start the Qi purification process so as to produce less pure Qi Energy yet it is equivalent to the entire Qi energy you absorb. His other greatness is that no one can see your level even though he has reached the level of a celestial warrior, do you understand it now?"

Xiao Wu Jie felt very comforted over the information, but after thinking for a moment he found the question he needed to ask.

"Am I unable to know myself if I have already opened my Qi nerves and read my level"

Hearing that question Yang San looked hesitant "So you mean you don't know if you've opened your Qi nerves?"

"Hmmm yeah..."

"Ahh it shouldn't be like that. When opening the first nerve Qi you will feel a strong energy flowing in your blood"

Xiao Wu Jie was downcast after listening to the statement, a sense of pleasure that had previously dissipated as he had lost hope.

"Didn't you feel something like that? you're kidding me, aren't you?"

'This question.' upon thinking about that Yang San question, Zhang Ma's face flashed as he asked the same thing.

"Surely the teacher was very disappointed, I was not what the teacher expected, I was trash"

Yang San was very surprised to hear Wu Jie's statement saying to her "What are you saying! you can't think like that, you still have hope I'll try to help you."

"Will the teacher help me?" now a trace of hope was seen in Xiao Wu Jie's eyes while Yang San only nodded giving her confidence.

After chatting for a while Xiao Wu Jie said goodbye to immediately return to the dormitory, due to exhaustion he intended to go straight to sleep after arriving at his dorm.

Again a different feeling was felt upon entering his dorm, there were no jokes and laughter from the two friends of his age.

They were busy with their respective activities, no one cared about Xiao Wu Jie upon entering the room.

The unpleasant feeling Xiao Wu Jie felt. How not, in an instant someone so close can become a stranger who does not care for each other.

This is what is sometimes very unfortunate in a relationship. The near moment of every thing done will be very warm as if such warmth will never end. But one can forget if the relationship ends, it will also be very painful. That is the dynamic in life.

After lying on the bed, Xiao Wu Jie tried to close his eyes and in an instant he fell asleep.
