Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 178 I Have to Leave Beforehand.

Li Canyang glanced at his partner with a puzzled look, “It is undeniable that what Yiruo cooks tastes bad indeed, but it is not as bad as you exaggerated.” But when he spoke such words, the corners of the mouth still couldn’t help but reveal a trace of convulsions, the things that his cousin made tasted... Li Canyang vowed that even if he were eating coptis every day, he would never want to eat what Yiruo cooks again.

However, just then.

“The head of the Western Academy of red shirts appeared in our Eastern Academy of the Blue Shirts unexpectedly, and you are really a rare guest.”

A cold voice came from the side.

Li Canyang and Xiao Chengxuan turned around and found a thin and pale teenager in a blue robe with a pair of weak but beautifully arched eyebrows standing beside them quietly, and they even did not notice him. Nobody knew when he showed up.

“Li Lan, the head of the Academy.” Li Canyang made an obeisance by cupping one hand on the other before his chest.

He knew that the seemingly weak teenager was the head of the Eastern Academy of the Blue Shirts, a fathomless young genius like Ding Hao.

“There are still less than four or five days ahead for the second five academies competition. Both of you show up in our Eastern Academy of the Blue Shirts at this time, which really makes our fancy to run wild?” Li Lan said unceremoniously, glancing at Ding Hao and Li Yiruo in the afterglow, who were talking and laughing in the distance.

Li Canyang smiled and said, “My cousin has an appointment with Senior Brother Ding Hao. Of course, as her brother, I should accompany her to come.”

Li Lan nodded slightly and made a gesture of “Please”.

Three people came to a table beside Ding Hao, greeting each other and sat down.

“With a pretty girl to accompany, Senior Brother Ding is really in a good mood.” Li Lan teased slightly.

Ding Hao smiled slightly without much to say.

But Li Canyang captured keenly a trace of unhappiness in what Li Lan said, he seemed to have found something and thought that the head of the Eastern Academy of the Blue Shirts was also his cousin’s admirer, so he forgot himself a little bit.

“Five days later, it will be the second five academies competition. I wonder how Senior Brother Ding has prepared for it.” Very soon Li Lan turned the topic around and asked lightly.

“It should be no problem.” Ding Hao smiled and gave a pair of chopsticks to each of them. “Let’s taste the food. Yiruo’s cooking skills are excellent.”

Praised by Ding Hao, Li Yiruo showed her brilliant smile on the face.

With a little bit of hesitation, Li Lan raised his hand and took the chopsticks.

Instantly Xiao Chengxuan’s face changed much, he seemed to have seen something extremely frightening. Patting his forehead, “Suddenly I come to remember that I have something to finish. Excuse me, Senior Brother Ding, I will buy you a drink next time.”

Saying this, he ran away like escaping without turning back.

Ding Hao’s corners of the mouth revealed a trace of a smile. Of course, he knew why Xiao Chengxuan ran away, but he did not point it out bluntly.

Li Canyang opened his mouth, and finally, he took the chopsticks from Ding Hao with difficulty. But he just carried the chopsticks in his hand without helping himself to the food in the plates.

Li Lan did not know why. He just came to the dining hall for a meal. Besides, he was really a little bit hungry. The food in the plates before him looked not bad, so he just picked the food up without extra trouble and put it into his mouth.

Ding Hao and Li Canyang revealed strange smile at this instant.

Expectedly, the next moment, Li Lan chewed the dish for a while, then he seemed to have been struck by thunder, and all of a sudden he became stiff and a black layer flashed across his face. He sweated cold on the forehead as if he was chewing poisonous medicine rather than food in his mouth.

However, in the next moment, Li Lan looked up at Ding Hao and Li Canyang, and then, as if nothing had happened, he kept silent, continued to chew the food and swallowed it.

After doing this, he quietly lifted up a cup of light wine in front of him and drank it out. Then he put down the chopsticks on the table and ate no more food.

However, Ding Hao and Li Canyang clearly saw that Li Lan’s fingers trembled slightly when he put down his chopsticks.

“Why? What’s going on? Why do you look like this way?” Li Yiruo apparently did not understand what had happened but felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. She looked at the faces of the three men doubtfully.

Ding Hao laughed loudly, slowly he picked up the dishes on the plate and ate them politely.

He moved leisurely, posed smart, and ate carefully one mouthful after another as if tasting the best food in the world.

Li Lan quietly looked at Ding Hao for a long time, then lightly sighed and shook his head and said, “I’m really not as good as you.”

Li Canyang also looked at Ding Hao with an incredible expression, as if he were looking at a monster.

“Don’t look at me so worshipfully.” Ding Hao laughed, in his eyes, flashed a trace of joy and happiness. He raised his hand to help them with dishes, and said with a laugh, “Now that you sit down, you’ll have a good taste what Yiruo did with her cooking skills.”

Li Canyang’s face changed significantly and he could not sit down anymore. He stood up suddenly and said, “I suddenly remembered that there are still some things to be dealt with in the Western Academy. Ding Hao, take your time, and I’ll go first.”

Li Lan also stood up and said to himself, “I seem to have something to do. It’s too late. I have to deal with it as soon as possible.”

“Oh, by the way, Ding Hao, I have bubbling news to tell you that the ancient ruins in Xiyan Mountains in Snow Province have been broken through recently, and many treasures have been found that are valuable enough for various sects to drool with envy...” Li Canyang suddenly turned around and said, “Do you know who broke through the ruins?”

Ding Hao instantly thought of a person’s name and laughed, “Can’t it be Mu Tianyang?”

Li Canyang said with a surprise, “You have already known the news?”

“Come on, is it really this guy?” Ding Hao felt that he had the gift of Corvine Mouth.

“Mu Tianyang shocked Snow Province by breaking through the ancient ruins in Xiyan Mountains. With the support of Tranquility Academy, he got most of the spiritual grass, divine elixir, and magical weapons. Some people said that he even got a rare magical weapon at Level Six.” Li Lan apparently knew about it, looked at Ding Hao with an expression of self-seeking happiness, and said, “I just want to tell you about it. Unexpectedly Brother Canyang has already known it. Ding Hao, the situation is terrible for you.”

Li Canyang also nodded, “It is said that Mu Tianyang’s strength shown this time has surpassed the primordial grandmaster, he has reached at least the high level of the great grandmaster, and his strength is likely to improve sharply in a short time after he has obtained the treasures of the ancient ruins in Xiyan Mountains.”

To be honest, they did not think that Ding Hao could defeat Mu Tianyang in three years, and now they gave him little hope.
