Chương 651: Impulsion Creates Misery
Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Xijiu was reluctant to find out what she was up to. Moreover, she was not very close to her, so she only briefly nodded at her and left.
Along the way, people gave Gu Xijiu all sorts of looks. Some were sympathetic while others were hostile.
Even Lan Waihu, who was usually sprightly and full of energy, was unusually quiet. She was careful when she talked to Gu Xijiu and read her expressions occasionally.
As for Qian Lingyu, he was like a chatterbox which kept blabbering the entire day. There was not a moment of peace around him.
Gu Xijiu did not know where he got his jokes from. Recently, he would always make her laugh every time he was around. His stories were mostly about love with couples that were forced to be torn apart. The endings would always same, concluding that there were plenty of other fish in the sea, so there was no need to keep hanging onto the same person. He made Gu Xijiu speechless.
In the end, Gu Xijiu could no longer endure his never-ending chatter and asked, "Are you trying to comfort me because you think that I am heartbroken? Let me tell you; I'm really fine. There is nothing between Celestial Master Zuo and I, so can you just stop?"
The young man was quiet for a while. Carefully, he said, "Alright, let's not talk about it. Not now, not ever."
Gu Xijiu could finally take a break and return to her usual peace of mind. The boy had finally understood her.
To her surprise, she accidentally heard Qian Lingyu telling Lan Waihu, "Do not mention Celestial Master Zuo again, not even the words 'Zuo' and 'You,' let us replace the words with one and two. One represents 'Zuo,' and two represents 'You.'"
Gu Xijiu was utterly astounded.
It was not a big deal to be heartbroken, but it would be when the whole world was talking about it.
Gu Xijiu was generally okay, but others thought that she was just pretending to be fine.
In the past three months, her team had encountered numerous fights with students from the Ziyun class. There were more wins than losses, so the results were very outstanding.
However, ever since the incident with Yun Qingluo happened, her wins or loses would often be perceived differently. When she won, they would say that she had turned her grief into her fighting spirit. Sometimes, when she lost, they would say that she was feeling too sad to concentrate.
In the end, people would always think that everything was because of her loss in love, regardless of her performance.
…
The crescent moon was partially covered by the clouds. There was a little brightness amid the dark. Gu Xijiu held her head up and looked at the moon. She then took out a mirror to look at herself and thought about it seriously. Did she really look like she was heartbroken?
After all, she used to be fond of Celestial Master Zuo. They were almost married. Under those circumstances, it was impossible for her not to feel disappointed. But was it that serious?
She had never thought to come here and look at the moon, but her two close friends were too cautious around her. They had drawn her up to the point of exhaustion, so she had to come out to take a break and reflect on herself.
If she knew things would turn out this way, she would not have said the things out of mere impulsion when she was arguing with Yun Qingluo.
Impulsion created misery.
The rock that she was sitting on was partially hanging at the edge of the cliff, like a sea rock. Although it was dangerous, the view from up there was terrific! When the weather was good, there would be layers of white fog floating around the cliffs. It was just like a wonderland.
Chương 652: Where Did You Come From?

As usual, Gu Xijiu came here and sat down for a while to enjoy the breeze. She was also there to make up her mind and to make some plans for the future.
This time was no different. Her sorrow did not last for long, as the breeze was comforting enough to make her feel better.
She started to think about the competition that was going to happen three days later and proceeded to make a plan.
Gu Canmo told her that if her team won another fight, the three of them would be able to make it into the Ziyun class.
The first class was the priority class. If they made it in, they could get better resources to improve their abilities. Most importantly, the other two in her team were very desperate to get into the class.
Unfortunately, the team leader of the team they were going to face was Yun Qingluo. The other two teammates in her team were also the best of the best. Both of them had their spiritual power at level six and a half. They were not easy to be dealt with.
More importantly, the three of them did not always involve themselves in the battles. Gu Xijiu had never seen their tactics before, but they had observed her team countless of times already.
To know one's strength and that of their opponents was the way to victory. The opponent clearly knew them well, but she barely knew anything about them. This was not going to be an easy fight.
"Gu Xijiu…" There was a sudden call from the back.
Gu Xijiu was too absorbed in her own thoughts so she immediately freaked out when she heard a voice. Intuitively, she turned her head around and saw Yan Chen standing not too far away from her. He looked anxious, and it was rare to see him being so uneasy. Gu Xijiu was taken by surprise and raised her brow at him asking, "Where did you come from?"
Yan Chen fixed his gaze on her and said, "Come here." He walked towards her as he talked.
Gu Xijiu hesitated for a while, but she finally understood what he was anxious about. She could not help but laugh, "Do you really think that I am going to jump off the cliff? With my Kung Fu, I cannot possibly fall to my death at this height."
The cliffs were about two hundred meters tall. If she leaped straight off the cliffs, she would definitely die. However, her Qing Gong was extraordinary. If she really slipped and fell, she could step on the trees that were growing along the walls of the cliffs and fly back up.
Yan Chen examined her for a while. He seemed to realize the indifference in her expression and finally caught a breath. He walked towards her and sat down by her side. He said as he looked down, "This cliff is not the deepest cliff, but do you know what is down there? There is a hot spring. It is sizzling hot and can cook you thoroughly."
Gu Xijiu did not answer.
She coughed, "I think that I will not fall to its depth with my skills."
She knew about the hot spring that was capable of killing people as she had researched about it before.
Yan Chen realized that he had made a mistake. He got a little upset and tried to change the topic, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Little Fox was crying hysterically for not being able to locate you. She could not stop knocking my door."
Gu Xijiu was a little astounded and asked, "Did she alarm anyone while knocking your door?"
Would there be another rumor tomorrow saying that Gu Xijiu was about to commit suicide for taking things too hard?
Yan Chen knew exactly what she was worried about and shook his head, "No, she will always come to me when she has no idea what to do or when she is scared. Only if I have no idea too will she look for someone else. I guess a person who is as thick-skinned as you will not be suicidal, so I told her that you must be studying your strategy at somewhere quiet and I promised her that I would go and look for you immediately. She was finally relieved."
"You are the one who is thick-skinned!" Said Gu Xijiu.
