The next morning, something unusual happens outside Gao Ge"s room.
The sovereign, a few honorable elders and some core students in black are all waiting outside the door, showing great respect for Gao Ge.
After Gao Ge gets dressed, washes his face and rinses his mouth, he has breakfast under the watch of the sovereign and his men. The breakfast is only some steamed stuffed buns, fried bread sticks and porridge. Gao Ge feels like eating at his own neighborhood.
"Brat, can you eat faster?" Daoyuan dislikes Gao Ge so he just takes the chance to make a fuss, "Do you just look down upon the Heaven School?"
Holding half a steamed stuffed bun, Gao Ge looks at Daoyuan, saying, "Third Honorable Elder, if you want to kill me, there are plenty of opportunities. Don"t worry!"
Daoyuan has been seen through by Gao Ge. He is dumbfounded by a few seconds. He really cannot accept the way Gao Ge talks. It is not necessary to say everything out. Why does Gao Ge have to do that? Is he so proud of it?
Daoyuan keeps silent. Gao Ge also ends on good note. He wipes his mouth and walks to the sovereign, "Sovereign, I am ready."
"Okay. Let"s go." The sovereign laughs and then turns around to walk ahead.
Following a group of people, Gao Ge walks out of the back door.
It makes Gao Ge quite confused.
"Sovereign, isn"t the grandmaster in the Heaven School?"
The sovereign turns around to look at Gao Ge, saying with a smile, "There is a peak behind the Heaven School. That is the highest place of Mount Que, where the grandmaster is doing a closed-door training."
Gao Ge takes a tumble.
On the way, Gao Ge feels as if falling into another array with weird routes. He doesn"t bother memorizing them. After all, he cannot make it anyway.
According to the sovereign, the highest peak of Mount Que is called Cloud Climbing Tower, which sounds quite magnificent.
The Cloud Climbing Tower is high enough to reach to the sky. It takes some time to climb the peak. However, when they arrive at the Cloud Climbing Stairs, Gao Ge quickly notices that the aura of this place should be extremely thick and that as he approaches the Tower, the aura gets thicker. He even starts to doubt whether the Cloud Climbing Stairs is also a Precious Land of Aura. If so, the journey is so worthwhile for him.
When they reach the highest place of the Cloud Climbing Stairs, Gao Ge sees a pavilion hidden in the trees. It does reflect a grandness of "ascending a height to enjoy the beauty of the world."
"Okay. All of you wait outside." The Sovereign turns around to tell the core students and the honorable elders.
"Yes..."
The sovereign keeps walking forward with Gao Ge.
"I won"t say anything unimportant to you. I don"t care who you are, where you are from or what you want to do. If you claim to have nothing to do with the death of Shanyao and the other two students, I will take it that way." The sovereign says while walking ahead.
Gao Ge is a bit taken aback. He smiles and says, "You must be joking. I am only a student of the Killer School. Nothing more than that. As to Shanyao and the others, even if I wanted to kill them, I wasn"t capable enough."
The sovereign laughs, saying, "I am not done talking. Don"t worry. Whether the killer is you is not important. As long as you can heal our grandmaster, none of that matters."
Gao Ge nods his head.
The sovereign continues to say, "After you heal our grandmaster, you can leave here safe and sound. Apart from that, I will send you a gift as reward. I can a.s.sure that you won"t regret it. However, let me get this straight. You"ve seen what happened today. You wanted to have breakfast and we just waited outside for you. Plus, as the sovereign, I was also waiting out there for you, as well as the honorable elders and some core students. Under such a circ.u.mstance, if you can"t cure our grandmaster, you know what the consequence is. I will say no more."
Gao Ge heaves a sigh. The sovereign just uses both hard and soft tactics on him.
When the sovereign stops, they are outside the pavilion.
"This is it."
Gao Ge raises his head to look at the pavilion before him. He inhales.
"The aura of this place is quite thick." Gao Ge says.
The sovereign laughs, saying, "Therefore, it is also an opportunity for you. This is kind of our forbidden place. Even I cannot come here at will. Actually, the aura here used to be less thick but it has become much thicker since some time ago. Even a common man can feel completely different after staying here for a while, let alone a cultivator like you."
Gao Ge nods his head.
In fact, he is rather surprised.
According to the sovereign, this place is a Precious Land of Aura. However, such a place is not used for the students for cultivation. Instead, it is only a place for the grandmaster to cure his wounds.
In fact, Gao Ge still can understand their thoughts.
For the Heaven School, it is so close for them to develop into a first-cla.s.s school from a second-cla.s.s one.
And the final step must be taken by the grandmaster of the Heaven School, a master-level strong man.
Once this master-level strong man finishes his closed-door training, he will elevate the Heaven School to another height.
After the sovereign leaves, Gao Ge takes a deep breath and knocks on the door.
However, no one opens the door after he knocks on the door for several times. Gao Ge has no other choice but to push the door. Surprisingly, the door is pushed open.
"Doesn"t the owner fear thief? How can he just leave the door open?" Gao Ge mumbles.
"Hha. If the thief is bold enough to come to my place, I will allow it." An old voice comes.
Gao Ge suddenly has a feeling of blood freezing. There is no much light in the pavilion. It is quite s.p.a.cious here and he cannot see anybody. The voice keeps lingering though, which appears very creepy. Luckily, Gao Ge is not a timid person. He bows with joined hands and says loudly, "I am a student from Killer School. My strength can help heal wounds. With consent by the sovereign of the Heaven School, I am here to cure your wounds!"
After he finishes talking, he gets no reply just like a loser texting a beautiful lady.
He frowns and keeps saying, "Please let me know where you are so that I can help with your wounds!"
"How capable are you to cure me?" The voice comes again and yet it is full of disdain.
Gao Ge is a bit disgruntled.
He feels getting a cold shoulder when he tries to help this old man. It is the first time that he has seen such an arrogant patient.
"Sir, don"t you trust me?" Gao Ge holds breath and asks.
"Do you know what my name is?"
"No, I don"t."
"Then do I know your name?"
"No, you don"t."
"Then do you think I should trust you?" The man asks further.
Gao Ge thinks it over and finds it quite reasonable.
Gao Ge falls into silence while the man bursts out laughing, "Even if my father asks you to come here, I won"t trust you, let alone the sovereign of the Heaven School."
c.r.a.p!
He sounds so arrogant!
But Gao Ge still can"t understand why the man is so arrogant.
He takes a deep breath and says with a cold face, "Since so, goodbye then."
