It is easy to add flowers to brocade, but hard to deliver charcoal in the snow.
Today, Qin Wentian stands here, placing himself in the midst of a 'blizzard.' It was the Divine Armament Pavilion and the Imperial Star Academy that truly lent him a hand.
He would never forget this kindness.
Ruo Huan slowly walked over to Qin Wentian's side and said with a smile, "Good guy."
Ruo Huan understood that from today on, those who wanted to deal with Qin Wentian would have more concerns.
Even if it was an assassination, they would have to think carefully.
In the royal capital of Chu, every force had its own powerful intelligence network. Even the slightest hint of movement could not escape the many machines that were always in operation.
Therefore, no matter who had a grudge against whom, few dared to use assassination methods against the offspring of major families and major forces. Once those intelligence networks were activated, the consequences would be extremely terrifying.
Those people seemed to have missed the best opportunity to assassinate Qin Wentian.
Perhaps, in the past, they thought Qin Wentian was not yet worthy of such serious attention, but now, Qin Wentian, standing before everyone again, undoubtedly deserved everyone's attention.
This, of course, included the Ye family and the Ou family.
The Ou family had only hoped that Ou Chen could resolve the issue with Qin Wentian on his own. Since Ou Chen failed, he was punished with house arrest. Now, if the Ou family wanted to deal with Qin Wentian, they had to be extremely cautious.
Qin Yao also walked over, holding Qin Wentian's hand, her face beaming with a smile.
"Qin Wentian, thank you for everything you've done," Qin Yao said, smiling gently.
"Big sister, what are you talking about?" Qin Wentian pinched Qin Yao's cheek and said, "He's my father, we are siblings, why are you thanking me?"
"I was wrong," Qin Yao said, looking at the face that was gradually losing its youthful innocence, her smile becoming even more radiant. Seeing Qin Wentian achieve such success, she felt genuine joy from the bottom of her heart.
"Good to know," Qin Wentian smiled. "Don't go back to Xueyun Kingdom in the future. That prince of Xueyun Kingdom is probably not a good person."
"Okay," Qin Yao nodded. "But what about Qin Shang and Qin Zhi? Will they be alright?"
"I heard that the prince of Xueyun Kingdom is also an extraordinary person. He probably won't be so petty. We haven't offended him, so he won't target Qin Shang and Qin Zhi," Qin Wentian said. "But we should still write a letter, telling them to be low-key and leave Xueyun Kingdom quietly."
In Chu, there were specialized forces responsible for delivering letters. As long as you could pay the price, the letter could be delivered to the intended recipient in a very short time.
"Okay, I'll write the letter when I get back," Qin Yao replied.
The group left and headed toward the Imperial Star Academy. The little rascal appeared from somewhere and jumped onto Ruo Huan's body.
The sky was still snowing, but as they watched the departing figures, the crowd gradually dispersed.
But the name Qin Wentian was spreading rapidly throughout the royal capital of Chu. Just the ability to engrave a third-stage divine pattern was enough to make him famous in the capital, let alone everything that happened today, which was enough to become a topic of conversation for many people during their leisure time.
When Qin Wentian returned to the Imperial Star Academy, many people were strolling in the snow. The academy, with its snowflakes, seemed to have gained even more beauty.
Looking at the faces full of vitality, Qin Wentian's face showed a radiant smile. This nearly year-long experience made him feel as if he had matured a lot.
"Qin Wentian is back."
From a distance, many eyes turned toward the direction where Qin Wentian was, their eyes filled with a hint of unusual light.
Following the snow-covered path, Qin Wentian walked forward. Two girls passed by him, sneaking a glance at him and then whispering, "Xing'er, this is Qin Wentian. In his first year, he defeated Yan Yuhán, and he can even face off with Luo Qianqiu for three strikes."
"What a handsome guy. Now, he is undoubtedly the top genius among our freshmen."
"Right, compared to him, even Murong Feng, who was killed by him, seems inferior. Qin Wentian is trying to catch up with Senior Brother Luo."
Their voices grew smaller and gradually faded away, making Qin Wentian show a look of surprise. The news spread so quickly; it seemed that the news had already reached the Imperial Star Academy before he did.
"It looks like you've become famous," Ruo Huan laughed beside Qin Wentian, making Qin Wentian shrug. It seemed that this time, the attention he attracted was not small.
In his heart, he still felt a bit gratified. After all, as a seventeen-year-old boy, he still felt a bit happy about others' admiration.
Of course, that was all. He had not yet reached the point of self-inflation. He was very clear that the current outcome was not just due to his own talent, but also due to the support of the Divine Armament Pavilion and the Imperial Star Academy. He was not so dazzling that everyone would worship him based on his own strength.
If there was such a day, then the light he would emit would be more brilliant than the stars.
The world is vast, and his life has just begun. Even in Chu, there are many geniuses. So, how wonderful would the outside world be?
"It was just three strikes. Senior Brother Luo didn't truly fight him. He still doesn't have the qualifications to be compared with Senior Brother Luo."
At this moment, a slightly harsh voice came from a distance. Qin Wentian and the others looked in that direction and saw a man and a woman standing there.
The man's expression was not very good, and the woman, seeing Qin Wentian and the others looking at her, showed a hint of panic and said, "What are you talking about? Qin Wentian has only been in the Imperial Star Academy for a year. Comparing him with Senior Brother Luo now is unfair."
"Maybe you overestimate him," the man said, staring at Qin Wentian, making the woman's face stiffen.
Qin Wentian turned his head, not looking at them anymore, and not paying attention to their words. He continued to walk, holding the little rascal in his arms.
"It seems that the girl admires you, which makes the guy a bit jealous," Ruo Huan laughed and shook his head. They wouldn't take such a small matter to heart. You can't change others' opinions.
Many people, upon hearing that Qin Wentian had returned, speculated that the conflict between the Knight Alliance and Qin Wentian would further escalate.
Qin Wentian returned to his small house. He saw Fat Fan Le squinting his eyes, walking over and hugging him, saying, "Boss, I'm so happy to see you."
"Fatso, you still have a bit of conscience," Qin Wentian patted Fan Le's shoulder, and then they separated. Fan Le still held Qin Wentian's hand tightly, "Boss, I've been worrying about your safety all the time. I've lost a few pounds. Seeing you safe, I feel much better. By the way, Boss, I heard you can engrave third-stage divine patterns. Did you bring any divine weapons for me?"
Qin Wentian looked at Fan Le's slightly chubby figure, rolled his eyes, and said, "I'm really 'moved.'"
"Being moved is not necessary. Just give me a few third-stage divine weapons for protection," the fat man's eyes sparkled.
"None," Qin Wentian said.
"I heard that you now have treasures like divine pattern rings, and you even wielded a divine spear and a Fangtian halberd. If you don't have third-stage divine weapons, a few high-quality second-stage divine weapons would be fine. And some star meteorites for cultivation would also be great," the fat man persisted.
"Still none," Qin Wentian continued.
"Brother, be loyal. We agreed to share the good things," the fat man looked at Qin Wentian with a slightly resentful gaze, making Qin Wentian feel goosebumps all over his body, and he finally gave in.
"Fan Le, don't worry about lacking divine weapons in the future," Ruo Huan rolled his eyes at the fat man and then said to Qin Wentian, "Junior, I think the teacher might want to see you. Why don't you come with me?"
"Okay, I have some things I want to ask the teacher and senior sister," Qin Wentian nodded slightly.
"Fan Le, come with us too," Ruo Huan said to the fat man, who nodded repeatedly. The three of them left.
Not far away, many freshmen looked at them, secretly sighing. As freshmen, they seemed to have been far outstripped by Qin Wentian.
Mo Shang was sitting by a stream, cross-legged, seemingly meditating with his eyes closed.
The teachers of the Imperial Star Academy also had constant pressure. They, too, had to continuously cultivate and improve themselves, striving to reach higher realms.
When Ruo Huan brought Qin Wentian and Fan Le to him, Mo Shang opened his eyes. When he looked at Qin Wentian, a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
"Teacher," Qin Wentian and Fan Le bowed slightly to Mo Shang, showing respect.
"To be honest, I am ashamed. I haven't had the chance to teach you much, yet you have already achieved what you have today," Mo Shang said with a smile. Although he said this, he was also happy. Qin Wentian's performance made him, as a teacher, feel proud.
"The assistance you provided in Tianyong City is something I will always remember," Qin Wentian said gratefully.
"I know you are a person who values emotions. Otherwise, Old Ren, who rarely appears in public, wouldn't have made a special trip for you. Now, your status in the Imperial Star Academy is no less than mine as an elder," Mo Shang said happily. "Sit down first."
Seeing Qin Wentian and the others sit down, Mo Shang continued, "Now that you have achieved some success and will eventually reach the Yuanfu realm, I will tell you some things I know. This will broaden your horizons. After all, those recognized by the will of the Imperial Star Academy will eventually leave Chu. This world cannot hold you back."
