1387 Yu Huang’s Acting Talent and Screenwriting Talent
Hearing the old man call Zhan Jiuxiao ‘this child’, Yu Huang guessed a connection and asked, “From what you’re saying, you seem to be very familiar with Prime Emperor Jiuxiao. Could it be that Prime Emperor Jiuxiao is your student?”
Sheng Xiao and Ye Qingyang narrowed their eyes.
A proud expression instantly appeared on Ekel’s face as he praised Yu Huang, “You’re quite discerning. That’s right, I’m the professor that that child chose during the freshmen entrance ceremony. I imparted ten years of knowledge to him and accompanied him from the Grand Master Realm to the Prime Master Realm. I personally helped him put on the graduation medal.”
“I personally engraved Zhan Jiuxiao’s name on the wall of honor.”
Ekel was already very old. A thousand years ago, he was only a Prime Master. When he graduated, he was very proud and satisfied to be able to successfully nurture his disciple to the Prime Master Realm.
The three of them were overjoyed to learn about this relationship.
If there was anyone who knew the details of Zhan Jiuxiao’s ten years in the inner academy, other than his first girlfriend, Madam Brulee, it would be Prime Emperor Yu Tian and his professor.
Yu Huang planned to go to the library to search for Zhan Jiuxiao’s mentor, but she didn’t expect to meet him at the harbor.
Yu Huang suddenly mobilized her acting skills and smiled at Professor Ekel and Tiantian. Then, a look of admiration appeared on her beautiful face.
Yu Huang walked to the desk and pressed her hands on the table as she smiled at Professor Ekel and said, “Professor, are you really Prime Emperor Jiuxiao’s teacher? We followed Wuya to the inner city of the War God Clan two days ago and were lucky enough to see Prime Emperor Jiuxiao in person.”
“As one of the top experts on the continent, Prime Emperor Jiuxiao’s outstanding appearance is really unforgettable. The three of us admire Prime Emperor Jiuxiao very much.”
Ye Qingyang secretly complained about Yu Huang’s hypocrisy when he heard her lie. On the other hand, Sheng Xiao smiled dotingly.
Yu Huang continued, “I was very curious about what kind of outstanding professor could become the teacher of a genius student like Prime Emperor Jiuxiao? Turns out it’s actually you.”
Yu Huang flattered Professor Ekel again.
Professor Ekel had been retired for a hundred years and had not been flattered or praised for a long time. When he was suddenly praised by Yu Huang, he couldn’t help but feel smug.
Professor Acker waved his hand in dismissal and said with a smile, “You little girl, you’re quite glib. No wonder even that strange old man Song likes you so much.”
“Hey, I’m not glib. It’s because you’re outstanding that I idolize you.” After Yu Huang squatted down slightly and raised her head, her eyes revealed admiration.
Her gaze made Professor Ekel feel pleased.
“Hmph! Stop flattering me. Tell me what you want to do.” Professor Ekel wasn’t an idiot. He had long heard that Yu Huang was difficult to deal with.
Since she was suddenly so enthusiastic towards him, it was obvious that she had ulterior motives.
Ekel saw through it but didn’t reveal it.
Seeing that the old professor wasn’t muddle-headed, Yu Huang restrained her expression slightly. If she flattered him too much, it would make the old professor unhappy.
Yu Huang’s smile faded slightly and she said, “It’s like this. We took leave to return to Central Continent this time and even specifically went to pay a visit to our benefactor, Madam Brulee.”
If someone investigated, they would easily find out that their registry belonged to Central Continent’s Ice River City. After asking around, they would find out that they had a good relationship with Madam Brulee.
Yu Huang decided to directly reveal it.
Yu Huang continued, “When I saw Madam Brulee this time, I realized that she looked a little haggard. Only then did I find out that she had a headache. Madam Brulee is a powerhouse, so I was very curious as to why an expert like her would have a headache. After asking, I heard about what happened a thousand years ago from her.”
“Madam Brulee told me that a thousand years ago, when she graduated from our inner academy, she was secretly poisoned by her lover during the graduation battle, causing her cultivation to dissipate in the battle, and she even developed this chronic headache.”
“Everyone on the continent knows that Madam Brulee’s first love is Prime Emperor Jiuxiao. And two days ago, we were invited by Zhan Wuya to the inner city of the War God Clan as guests and were also lucky enough to have a meal with Prime Emperor Jiuxiao.”
“Through our interaction, we discovered that Prime Emperor Jiuxiao was an upright person. Facing a junior like me, who had almost hurt his daughter, he didn’t mistreat me and even treated me politely. We felt that what happened a thousand years ago might be an accident.”
“Madam Brulee didn’t say anything, but I know that that matter must have always been a sorespot to her. When we first arrived in Central Continent, we were also oppressed and bullied by the big shots of Central Continent. It was Madam Brulee who saved us. Moreover, the reason why my mentor, God Ling Xiao, was able to open a Purifying Spirit Master academy in Central Continent was all thanks to Madam Brulee and Mr. Jun Qing’s help.”
“We thought that if we could figure out the misunderstanding and help Madam Brulee move on, it would be considered a favor.”
Not only was Yu Huang a good actress, but she was also an outstanding screenwriter. Any story that came out of her mouth sounded believable.
If Sheng Xiao and Ye Qingyang didn’t know what happened, they would have believed her nonsense.
Yu Huang wanted to verify this matter with Ekel. Firstly, she wanted to investigate if Zhan Jiuxiao’s consciousness had really been invaded by a fiendish cultivator. Secondly, she wanted to verify if what Prime Emperor Yu Tian had said to Yin Rong back then was a lie or the truth.
When Ekel, who didn’t know the truth, heard Yu Huang’s words, he really believed her. “The graduation battle a thousand years ago…”
The smile on Ekel’s face suddenly became a little cold, and his eyes revealed regret. “I don’t remember very clearly what happened. However, during the battle, Dongfang Brulee’s spiritual energy indeed dissipated.”
This was exactly the same as what Prime Emperor Yu Tian had said.
Yu Huang asked softly, “How many battles did Madam Brulee fight that day? Do you still remember?”
“Five matches,” Ekel replied.
“Professor, you remember it so clearly?” When Yu Huang asked this, her tone was a little strange.
Ecker glanced at Yu Huang. Although he didn’t know what this girl was suspecting, he could feel that Yu Huang was suspecting him, so he snorted and said, “At that time, the inner academy’s rules hadn’t been reformed. Every graduate had to accept no less than five challenge competitions in the graduation battle. Moreover, they had to win five matches to successfully graduate.”
“Dongfang Brulee was very powerful, so ordinary students didn’t dare to challenge her. She was one of the few outstanding students in the history of the inner academy who only accepted five challenges in the graduation battle but won five consecutive victories. Madam Su bragged about it for a thousand years. It was only when she died a hundred years ago that we finally stopped hearing about it.”
Yu Huang guessed that ‘Madam Su’ was Madam Brulee’s mentor.
