Sorceress - Chapter 270
When she arrived at their dorm she saw that her friends were all gathered in the door waiting for her arrival.
“How is it? What happen??”
Long Yue asked as soon as Mu Lingxi stepped inside their room.
“Oh c’mon Long Yue. Why are you so excited to know about it? Why don’t you let him have a sit first???”
Yun Xue said when he heard Long Yue firing up a question right away. Before Su Yan (Mu Lingxi) could even take her seat.
They too were also curious about it. But at least they were not as excited as Long Yue that he can’t even wait before their friend can have a seat and rest for a while.
“Nothing, he just asked me what did the lady told me before I passed out”
Mu Lingxi replied as she sat next to Yun Xue.
Mu Lingxi had no plan plans of hiding the truth to her friends, to begin with.
So she gave them an honest answer as soon as they asked her.
Since her bed is at the upper deck, she decided to use the bed below her instead. Which happens to be Yun Xue’s.
“You talked to her??? What did she tell you then?”
Chan Gu butted in, but not before handing a Bubble Fruit to Mu Lingxi.
He knew that this friend of theirs missed out the chance to had some snacks because Schoolmaster Yin called him out as soon as they landed at the school premises.
As a good friend, he prepared a Bubble Fruit especially for their friend, Su Yan.
But, of course, he also did not forget to asked his question.
He was also curious to know what did the other party told their friend.
Since even Schoolmaster Yin personally asked about it, then there must be something worth taking note in those words.
“Nothing much. I just told Schoolmaster Yin that I heard her asking for help. Then after that, I blackout so I can’t remember anything aside from that.”
“Ohh… I see..”
Chan Gu said with a shrug.
It seemed that he got excited over something for nothing.
“Right! Long Yue, Schoolmaster Yin told me that you can bring Luna tomorrow at his office. He will check what he can do for her.”
Mu Lingxi said when she recalled about Schoolmaster Yin’s instruction.
“Really??! Did he really told you that?? That’s great news!!!!”
Long Yue said in delight when he heard the good news from his friend.
He had been anticipating this news for more than a month now. Now that it was just one sleep away from him he can’t help but feel really excited.
He was looking forward to seeing his dear Luna playing around with Janus. Just like what she usually does before.
His whole face lit up when he thinks about his cat, Luna being fully recovered.
The next morning Long Yue wake up early so that he could bring Luna to Schoolmaster Yin as soon as possible.
Mu Lingxi also wakes up early so she could come with Long Yue. She was doing this to give her moral support.
But more than anything else, she was doing this for her cat. Although Janus was not directly telling her about it, she knew that he was also dying to know the result of Luna’s check-up
There was an excited gleam in Long Yue’s eyes as they made their way towards Schoolmaster Yin’s office.
But aside from the excitement that was bubbling in his heart, Long Yue still can’t help but feel a bit nervous about it.
Especially since it’s been quite some time since Schoolmaster Yin last checked Luna’s conditioned.
What if Schoolmaster Yin was also helpless against Luna??? What if he fails to wake her up??
Those doubts kept him awake last night. To be honest, he just had some forty winks before he decided to prepare himself that morning.
But although negative thoughts keep on bugging him, Long Yue still tried his best to be optimistic.
Mu Lingxi was glad to see that Long Yue can still remain positive despite everything that they have been through.
She admired him for that.
Because if it was her in his situation and it was Janus who was in Luna’s condition, she was not sure how she will going to push through.
She patted Long Yue’s shoulder to show him some warmth and encouragement. She knew that Long Yue needed that.
If there is someone who can relate to him right now, she believed that it would be her. She can deeply relate to how Long Yue was feeling at this moment
Even though he was sporting a big smile right now, somewhere deep inside him, Mu Lingxi believed that he was also feeling nervous.
After all, this was all about his spiritual beast. She had seen to herself how Long Yue cared about Luna.
That cat really means a lot to him. In fact, he even lost weight after that incident in the land of Echurid.
Most likely it was because he was stressing himself about that accident. He might have been secretly blaming himself as to why Luna ended up that way.
This morning really means a lot to Long Yue and she was there to support him on it.
When they finally spotted the familiar Stairs of Will, Long Yue’s smile turn even brighter. he exhaled one large mouthful of turbid air before he headed to the stairs.
Mu Lingxi and Long Yue hurriedly ascended at the Stairs of Will. When they finally reached the top of the stairs, they saw the familiar gallery-like hall where Schoolmaster Yin’s office was hidden.
There they met the same old portrait of the beautiful maiden that used to bring them in the real hallway that leads to Schoolmaster Yin’s office.
This time, Janus managed to get a good look at the woman in the portrait.
When he and the other party’s eyes met, he felt the same feeling of familiarity that he felt before when he first saw the portrait.
It feels like he had met the girl in the portrait before. It just that he can’t recall when exactly it happened.
But before he could think further about it, the lady in the portrait tore the canvas of her own portrait. Just like what she usually did.
Then behind that open canvass lies a long dark corridor. There was a wooden double door at the end of the corridor. Which is the door of Schoolmaster Yin’s office.
“Here we go. Come on, Long Yue.”
Mu Lingxi beckoned to her friend when she noticed that he suddenly stopped on his track. It seemed that his nervousness was starting to act up now.
He was starting to get all jittery all of a sudden and it was getting the better of him.
“Don’t worry, it will be over soon. Before the day ends, Luna will be conscious again.”
Mu Lingxi said as she reached out at Long Yue’s hand.
When Long Yue felt the warmth of Mu Lingxi’s hand, he was reminded about that night. The night when he found out that Su Yan and Mu Lingxi is the same.
She was a girl. The girl whom his brother was in love with.
He had a sudden urge to take away his hand from her grasp. But when he saw Mu Lingxi’s warm smile, he decided otherwise.
It was at that time that Long Yue decided that he will also wanted to take her hand. Even just for today.
So what he did instead is he hold Mu Lingxi’s hand tighter as he let Mu Lingxi pull him.
The two walked side by side at the long, dark and narrow corridor with their hands intertwined with one anothe
