The credibility of her previous words should be taken with a grain of salt.
Moreover, even if what she said is true, it’s still a betrayal of her brother’s deep affection.
In such circumstances, Tang Xiao’s impression of Yun Lingxuan has greatly deteriorated.
Upon seeing her arrive on the scene today, Tang Xiao’s gaze became even more unfriendly.
Yun Lingxuan, being so perceptive, naturally sensed her gaze as well.
But at this moment, Yun Lingxuan couldn’t care less about such things.
She lifted her head with a solemn expression to glance at Kuixing Mountain, took a deep breath, and then began meditating with her eyes closed.
In contrast, Tuan’er beside her was much more lively.
She kept looking around, also searching for Xue An’s presence.
But after trying for quite a while, she still found nothing.
This inevitably aroused a bit of suspicion within her heart.
Why hasn’t the young master arrived yet?
In fact, she wasn’t the only one with this question.
Among the onlookers, some people were also filled with doubt.
Even among the onlookers watching the scene, there were clear distinctions.
At the very front stood those who were not qualified to participate in this literary assembly from the Academy.
Though these people were not qualified to participate in the grand assembly, it doesn’t mean their skills were weak.
Many academies fell off the list for one reason or another.
Especially in this year’s grand assembly, because many academies voluntarily gave up.
Of course, these academies were mostly from Xihua City, especially those who witnessed Xue An kill Kou Zhengfeng on the street that day; almost nine out of ten withdrew.
These were also the people who were puzzled at the moment.
"Strange, why hasn’t Xue An come yet?"
"Yeah, the sun is about to reach its zenith; if he doesn’t come soon, he won’t make it!"
"Could he be afraid?"
As soon as this was said, everyone around looked at the speaker as if he were an idiot.
The speaker himself felt he had misspoken, and his face turned very embarrassed.
"I... I was just speaking casually!"
This reaction was because everyone present understood that if there was any chance of that white-clothed youth being delayed for other reasons, it was possible, but him not coming out of fear was absolutely impossible.
After all, even when faced with a raging crowd on the long street that day, the white-clothed youth did not show a trace of fear and decisively killed Jin Han Academy’s Kou Zhengfeng.
How could such a person be afraid?
At the same time, in a corner of the crowd, a few rotund merchants were whispering among themselves.
"Is Xue An afraid to come?"
"He probably wouldn’t be!"
"Hmph, today I want to see what kind of person dares to kill my adopted son on the street!" One of the fat-faced men suddenly exclaimed loudly.
"What if you do see him? Do you intend to avenge your adopted son?" a woman’s sneer came from behind.
The merchants turned their heads to see that the people from Xingshi Pavilion had somehow appeared in front of them, at the forefront being the senior sister, Shang Hairong.
That statement just now had come from her mouth.
The fat-faced man’s expression turned red, and he sinisterly said, "Shang Hairong, what do you mean by this?"
"Just what the words mean!" Shang Hairong replied bluntly, "Mao Cong, there’s no need for you to make a fuss here; if you were capable, you would’ve confronted Xue An directly when your adopted son Kou Zhengfeng was crushed on the street!"
The person called Mao Cong was indeed one of the backers of Jin Han Academy and the adoptive father of Kou Zhengfeng.
