In the palace? Chui Yim didnt express his suspicion, but it was written all across his face.
Kam Chin Kee stared at him helplessly with an I knew It expression. See, I told you that you wouldnt believe me.
Okay, its turning dark now, so you should go. Dont wander around outside. Chui Yim waved his hands as if swatting a fly. What a joke. We can be friends, but I wont let you freeload! Im already busy trying to pay off my debts!
With that, Kam Chin Kee was chased out of Chui Yims house. Surprisingly, this didnt upset him but excited him instead. He had a unique idea in mind that surprised even himself, but he shelved it as he left.
If thats true, it will definitely show someday!
Kam Chin Kee headed back to the palace while humming a song happily. Today was the happiest he had ever been since his reincarnation.
Early next morning, Chui Yim was awoken by acommotion outside his house.
To be exact, the ruckuswas caused by the clan members of the spies who came with their ransom. A one or two-chambered glipher definitely didnt cost this much, but the clans were forced to pay up; who would work for them in the future if they casually discarded their subordinates?
To the clans, they paid not just for their spies but also to maintain their reputation. Even Chor Shing Chit couldnt tell if Chui Yim was just being greedy or whether he was banking on the clans paying to not embarrass themselves.
Chui Yim wore a wide smile as he treated their injuries and detoxified them. Chui Yim even looked unwilling when they left, saying, Remember to visit again! His actions made the spies tremble as they swear to never return.
After earning a few hundred thousand taels, Chui Yim was in a good mood. He rewarded himself with a fulfilling breakfast before heading to the Cloud Palace outer sect.
He knew that today was the first day of class, so Chui Yim was punctual. The Cloud Palace outer sect wasnt as simple as it seemed.
Chui Yim read a lot. Despite only remembering the contents by rote, this was the first time he had met people his age who were comparable to him. Be it Kam Chin Kee or Kwan Shan Chuen, both were extremely knowledgeable and worthy rivals. Chui Yim believed many others were like him, keeping silent despite knowing the answer.
Knowledge might not directly affect ones strength, but it definitely helped, and this was proven repeatedly during his journey to the South Imperial City. He was excited to learn more at the Cloud Palace outer sect, eagerly awaiting his first gliph tattoo.
Suddenly, Chui Yim realised that someone was waiting for him outside. It wasnt Kam Chin Kee but two others. One of them blended into the shadows while the other stood out prominently.
Brother Chui, do you still remember me? The teen smiled. His very being seemed to bring warmth despite the cold winter.
Its you, Brother Lam! Chui Yim shouted after taking a closer look. The two were none other than Lam Zaa and Yam Chui Ying.
Yam Chui Ying showed a disgusted look at Chui Yim. How dare he address His Highness so informally
Yet, Lam Zaa didnt seem bothered by it and smiled at Chui Yim. Brother Chui, you are quite something, huh? A Cloud Palace outer sect special quota, he said as he waved his hands, gesturing for Chui Yim to walk with him.
Brother Lam is interested in the Cloud Palace outer sect too? Chui Yim laughed.
Yam Chui Ying couldnt help but be irritated by Chui Yim. His Highness and I were both there. You just didnt notice us. Who is His Highness? The current crown prince, the future emperor of this generation, was overlooked?
Yeah, I was in the class too, Lam Zaa replied, feeling slightly awkward.
Really? My bad, I didnt notice. Hahaha! Chui Yim apologised but didnt seem remorseful or embarrassed as he scratched his shiny bald head. I wasnt paying attention yesterday. Sorry.
The three eventually arrived at the Cloud Palace outer sect, which looked like an old temple. Many other students had arrived as well.
All of them were disdainful when they saw Chui Yim, thinking that a toad would forever be a toad even if he wore the Cloud Palace outer sects uniform. However, their faces changed when they saw Lam Zaa standing next to him.
Even if Chui Yim was a toad, a swan was standing next to him! Those that could enter Cloud Palace's outer sect were disciples of great organisations or clans. They might be afraid of Lam Zaa, but not as fearful as Mo-Yung Kit had been.
Ill see you in class, brother Chui. Lam Zaa smiled as he walked in with Yam Chui Ying. No matter how slow Chui Yim was, he could already tell that Lam Zaa was special. But it still wasnt something he was concerned about since he felt that status was nothing compared to a persons character. He only ever cared about his friends character, not their status.
Lam Zaa came to him purposely to greet him and warn the others that Chui Yim was related to him, saving him a lot of trouble. This action was enough to prove that Lam Zaa was worthy of befriending.
It didnt matter how unhappy or disdainful the other students were because they couldnt deny the fact that Chui Yim was qualified to be there.
It didnt take long for the small classroom to be full.
Brother Chui, what do you think? Rent me a room. Ill pay. Kam Chin Kee whispered to Chui Yim, who rolled his eyes.
Pay rent? When youre using the pocket money given by your family?
As the both of them chatted, two figures walked in. The first was the tidy Woo Nim, followed by a middle-aged man who was her total opposite; he was extremely messy. His robe was crumbled, and his eye bags were so huge that he looked like he hadnt slept for ten years.
He let out a yawn the moment he entered, the students in the front row pinching their noses and frowning.
What a smelly breath!
Class leader, lead the class in greeting. Woo Nim turned to Kwan Shan Quan.
Kwan Shan Wuan stood up seriously. Despite his childish voice, he had a determined tone. Class, stand.
Woo Nim turned to the middle-aged man next to her. This is Great Master Cheuk, who will teach you gliphism.
