REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

Chapter 325 - 325. Jiao And Teacher Liu

"So where are the palace-given pills?" asked Fryz on the left again.

"Master Shin took it. Maybe returned it to the palace? I don't know," replied Fryz on Jiao's right side. "So what?"

"Oh no, I just wanted to know."

"To be honest, I feel a little sorry for this Fryz," he added.

"Why pity him? He deserves punishment for being so presumptuous in front of Master Shin."

Hearing his friend's words, Fryz who was on Jiao's left just sighed harshly and didn't respond to his friend's words anymore.

They walked out of the room, then flew with Jiao's body through the gate.

Slightly away from the palace, and then flew low, putting Jiao's body which was already full of cuts into a very quiet place. Neither fairy nor Fryz was seen in the place.

"Just leave it here."

"Hey, you wake up!" said one of the Fryz.

"Go back to your territory before you bled to death here," he added again after laying down Jiao's body.

"Come on!" The two of them then left from there, leaving Jiao alone.

Sensing the departure of the two Fryz, Jiao then opened his eyelids, which were slightly blurred at first until his vision became clear.

His breath sped up, trying to fix his position and shifting his body to a tree trunk not far from where he was, Jiao wanted to lean back and rest before returning to the inner region if he still could. Yes, he hopes he still can, because his wings feel so numb.

With his current state, even asking for pills to the palace was no longer possible.

"How are you?" a voice came from the side.

"No, don't move too much. Just stay where you are."

"It's me, Teacher Liu," said the figure who was now in front of Jiao.

"Te-teacher Liu?" Jiao's voice sounded hoarse and heavy.

"Um, it's me."

"I'm sorry I couldn't help you earlier," said Teacher Liu.

It sounded like Jiao just coughed.

"Here, have a drink," said Teacher Liu, immediately handing Jiao a small porcelain bottle. There is a pill in it.

"Don't ask anything. This is all because of my carelessness. I gave you the wrong thing earlier."

"I forgot that I transferred the pills to the porcelain bottle I got when I arrived at the core region yesterday," said Teacher Liu.

"I forgot, I'm sorry," he said again with a shaky breath. Sometimes he forgets about it, and because of his forgetfulness, someone becomes a victim.

Previously, when Teacher Liu was some distance away from the palace, suddenly a memory flashed through his head, the pills that Fu Xie Lan gave him which he had initially just carelessly wrapped using leaves, had been transferred into a porcelain bottle. He did so to maintain and not reduce the purity of the pills.

And with that memory he decided to return to the palace to give the correct pill, hoping that Jiao would still be there.

And it turns out that his wish came true, Jiao was still in the palace but he was with Mr. Shin. In the end, Teacher Liu just watched them from afar, without the courage to appear in person. Followed them secretly, all the way to this place.

Teacher Liu didn't notice, because of his forgetfulness that he accidentally saved Jiao from a more severe punishment than the one he received a moment ago.

"No, y-you're innocent Te-teacher Liu," Jiao said in a stuttering voice then coughed again.

If only he was in a normal body condition, he would explain everything to the middle-aged man. About what happened in the inner region, and about the injured Fryz, also about the cause that he could be in this condition. And all of those things had nothing to do with Master Liu. Why did he have to hear the middle-aged man apologize to him?

"Here, drink it," said Teacher Liu again.

Jiao was silent for a few seconds in his position, until the next minute, he just received the small bottle and put it in his pants pocket which was still intact, not torn like some parts of the robe he was wearing.

"What are you doing?" Master Liu's brow furrowed clearly when he saw Jiao's actions.

"Someone needs this pill more than I do, Teacher Liu," Jiao said in one breath, her tone sounding very weak, and after that, the man coughed again.

"Who? Take the pill, I can go back to the palace and ask for another pill for your friend."

"No, don't do it. Getting one healing pill is more than enough, Teacher Liu. I can heal myself after this," Jiao replied still sounding breathless.

After all, the punishment he received had taken up a lot of his time, so it was no longer possible for him to wait for Master Liu to come to the palace to take pills just for him. He didn't know what would happen to Miss Xie Lan's body if she lingered in the core region. With this alone, he could still endure the pain all over his body.

"I don't know who your friend is and what has happened to your friend."

"I also don't know why you sneaked into the palace without Master Zyn's knowledge."

"It's none of my business, it's just that seeing you insist like this, it looks like something bad has happened," said the middle-aged man again.

Jiao was silent when she heard Teacher Liu's words. Sooner or later, the middle-aged man will also definitely hear about the events in the inner region, which is why he chose not to tell him now, well at least he could conserve his remaining energy.

"Then let me take you back," said Teacher Liu when he didn't get a response from Jiao.

"No need, Teacher Liu. I can do it myself. I've been a hassle and wasted your time." After all, Master Liu's presence here at this time was actually because that middle-aged man sacrificed his time, who should have returned to the academy, but was still wandering around the palace, and Jiao was aware of it.

"With your condition like this? Can you still use your wings?"

Jiao was silent and didn't respond. He wasn't sure of that himself, because he felt numbness in his wings.

"You don't need to escort me to the inner region, Master Liu. If possible I just wanted to ask you to take me to the edge of the core region. The rest, I'll go back alone," said Jiao weakly.

"You are sure?"

Jiao just nodded. Whereas Teacher Liu only took a deep breath. By now he should have resumed his activities at the academy, it's just that he couldn't leave someone who was injured in front of him, especially if that person was someone he recognized.

Teacher Liu would not be so heartless. Prioritizing one's interests without regard to the condition of others is an unacceptable attitude.

He had offered to help Jiao, but the man refused. In that case, Master Liu couldn't do much more. He can't force something that other people don't want right?

"All right, if that's all you want. I'll take you to the edge of this territory."

"But if you feel you need help again, you tell me.. Don't hold it back."
