Chapter 1119: Chapter 1119: Miss, have we met before?

When Lei Nuoyi mentioned Farkas, you naturally saw something called admiration in her beautiful eyes.

"Elder sister, I was just wondering why you were so concerned about me. Turns out you’re worried that my feud with Luo Fei’er might affect your relationship with General Hu... Ouch, why did you flick me again?"

Lei Nuoyi seemed somewhat angry, having flicked you a bit harder this time, clearly displeased with you saying she liked Farkas.

Of course, this action was a reflex, and she herself didn’t know why she did it.

Moreover, although she always doted on her younger brother, the moment she saw him this time, her heart surprisingly fluttered in a way it never had before.

Lei Nuoyi quickly attributed this sensation to family affection.

"I’m thinking of you. The Hu family holds real power in the Xuanqin Empire, and you’re going to spend a long time there. Offending them could be very dangerous."

"Don’t worry, as long as that Luo Fei’er doesn’t trouble me, I won’t go near her."

"No! You have to promise me that even if Luo Fei’er bothers you, you can only run away, you cannot fight back."

"Ah? You’re kidding."

"Seriously, with your current ability, even if you want to, you can’t resist. Duke Farkas has found a Guardian Knight for Luo Fei’er. The strength of this Guardian Knight is unfathomable; you are no match for him. If you see her, you must run."

Thinking of a life in the Imperial Academy where you can only hide and flee made your heart sink. The expression on your face was like having your wallet snatched in broad daylight and being pinned to the ground, unable to chase after the thief.

"Elder sister, if that’s the case, do I even need to stay at the Imperial Academy?" you said gloomily.

Lei Nuoyi looked deeply into your eyes, the one deemed by many as a hopeless scumbag, a disgrace: "Little Xiu, it’s not that your sister is unwilling to help you, but what you’ve done before was too much. Although your recent behavior is good, it doesn’t make up for your past actions. Besides, father has given an order, he’ll never let you return to Qinglan. If you leave the Imperial Academy without permission, he will no longer recognize you as his son."

"Psh, without me, I’m not his son anyway." you sneered in your heart.

"However, don’t worry too much. I’ve already spoken to Duke Farkas, Luo Fei’er won’t be too harsh on you, the worst she’ll do is just humiliate you symbolically. Just endure it."

Without saying a word, you turned around and gave the sky the middle finger...

You didn’t stay long in Lei Nuoyi’s residence. Lei Nuoyi had a male guard take you to the Imperial Academy to enroll.

She had already completed the enrollment formalities for you; you just need to report there.

Lei Nuoyi did not allow Akema to accompany you; the Imperial Academy does not permit the presence of servants. No matter what status or identity, the Academy treats everyone equally and will not indulge them based on their status.

"Hey, brother, where exactly is the Imperial Academy?"

The guard took you straight out of the Chang’an Inner City. In the bustling area of the outer city, you were taken around. At first, you thought he might be plotting to rob and kill you, but then you realized that when you left, you had cajoled Lei Nuoyi into giving you a bag of Silver Coins, containing perhaps only a hundred or two hundred Silver Coins.

Moreover, only he and Lei Nuoyi knew about this; no outsider would know.

"There, that’s it."

Following the guard’s somewhat thick and dark fingers, you looked up higher and higher, and when you saw the so-called Imperial Academy, your mouth gaped wide open, big enough to fit an entire grapefruit.

You pointed to a small island floating in the sky and said, "That flying island up there is the Imperial Academy?"

"Yes," the guard nodded affirmatively.

You’re going to ascend to the heavens!

"Um, I have a question, how do I get up there?"

The guard pointed at a large round platform directly below the academy: "That’s the Teleportation Array. You can be directly teleported to the gates of the Imperial Academy from there. I can only bring you this far, Young Master Lei Xiu."

You nodded, stepped toward the Teleportation Array, and walked over. As you disappeared into the portal, a playful smile appeared on the guard’s face: "I hope Young Master Lei Xiu won’t get played to death by Miss Farkas, alas, he’s on his own now."

Accompanied by a soft white light, you found yourself in a vast open space.

The spot where you stood was on a soft green lawn. When you looked around, you saw two people standing in front of you, a man and a woman.

The man naturally looked handsome and dashing, and the woman, well, ever since you saw that mysterious woman at the College of Yanluo and your sister Lei Nuoyi, you seemed to have developed an immunity to all beautiful women. Of course, this so-called immunity simply meant that you no longer drooled like Pig Brother upon seeing a beautiful woman.

According to your average aesthetic standards, this woman was attractive but not to the level of Lei Nuoyi, a whole grade below. As for her figure, ah, she had a lot of room for improvement compared to Lei Nuoyi.

What puzzled you was that upon seeing you, the woman’s eyes shone brightly, like a hungry wolf spotting its prey.

"Lei Xiu, how are you?" The woman gave you a smile as brilliant as the summer sun, which seemed glaringly bright to you.

"Uh, that... do I know you, miss?" you asked with a smile.

The woman wasn’t angry, still smiling, but her tone was through gritted teeth: "Know each other? We have deep-seated grievances."

With that, the woman gave a look to the good-looking man by her side. He nodded, moved swiftly behind you, and reached out for your collar.

At the crucial moment, you sidestepped, took several quick steps back, and stared warily at the man and woman in front of you: "What do you want to do?"

"Enough talk, today I’m going to make you crawl into the Imperial Academy!"

The man made his move, fast. With a flicker of a shadow, a sharp pain struck your lower abdomen. After being hit, your first reaction was to roll on the spot, dodging the man’s second attack.

This maneuver surprised the man, for he had never seen such a way of avoiding an attack. You see, knightly combat is known for its nobility and elegance, a world apart from the street thug’s fighting style.

At this moment, what you displayed was entirely the posture of a street ruffian, a situation beyond his comprehension.
