Perverted and Twisted Zhao Wuji

T/N: Sorry for having no updates the previous days. Was busy with school but I'm back and with the chapters that I Should have uploaded before. Enjoy!

"I don't know," Zhu Zhuqing shook her head.

"I don't know either," Xiao Wu's face was full of confusion.

"Don't you feel the recovery of your condition?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"I do feel it, but I have no idea what's going on," Xiao Wu looked genuinely puzzled.

Zhao Wuji carefully observed Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's faces, but in the end, he couldn't discern anything.

He waved his hand impatiently and said, "Take one hour to rest. Eat if you're hungry, and restore your soul power if needed. We'll continue our journey in an hour."

Suddenly, Zhu Zhuqing said, "Sister Xiao Wu, I need to go relieve myself. Can you come with me?"

"Sure."

The place they stopped was a wilderness area, with some tall grass not far away. Zhu Zhuqing held Xiao Wu's hand and walked towards it.

Ning Rongrong's expression changed, as if she had thought of something, and she followed them.

She guessed that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing might discuss the mysterious event that just happened. She was also very curious about why Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing magically regained their soul power and stamina.

The three girls walked about thirty to forty meters away and were blocked from view by the tall grass.

Zhao Wuji's spiritual power quietly spread over, his ears also moved, trying to listen to what Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing might be saying.

He suspected that these two girls might not be entirely ignorant, but rather, they chose not to speak about it.

If he could grasp the secret of automatic soul power and stamina recovery, it would be a tremendous opportunity.

As a Level 76 Spirit Saint, Zhao Wuji's spiritual power was unmatched by anyone present except for Ao Tian and Gu Yuena. Even Tang San hadn't noticed that Zhao Wuji was eavesdropping on the situation.

Suddenly, Ao Tian laughed, "Teacher Zhao, I didn't expect you to be so twisted in your mind. You're actually eavesdropping on three female students going to relieve themselves. Don't you feel embarrassed?"

Tang San and Oscar both turned their heads to look at Zhao Wuji, their expressions filled with astonishment.

Zhao Wuji was instantly startled and retracted his spiritual power. There was a momentary flash of unnaturalness on his face - a sign of guilt, which he quickly concealed.

He felt somewhat uncertain in his heart. How did Ao Tian discover he was eavesdropping?

To be able to detect his spiritual power, only a spirit master with spiritual power similar to his could achieve it. However, Ao Tian was only Level 31, so his spiritual power was far from matching Zhao Wuji's.

Oscar hadn't noticed Zhao Wuji's momentary unease, but Tang San, with his keen powers of observation, had.

Could Teacher Zhao really be a mentally twisted person? Tang San couldn't help but wonder.

Zhao Wuji's face darkened, and he said sternly, "Ao Tian, do you have any evidence? Do you understand the consequences of falsely accusing a teacher?"

Ao Tian replied, "I have no evidence, but I've heard a saying: 'People will face retribution for their misdeeds.' Are you feeling guilty?"

Zhao Wuji's dignity as a Spirit Saint was repeatedly challenged by a Spirit Elder. With his fiery temper, how could he endure it?

He felt that it was time to establish his authority in front of these newbies, or else they might run wild. In the past, he had lost count of how many times he had beaten Dai Mubai and the other two brats. He felt that it was time to assert himself in front of these rookies, or they might cause trouble.

"Ao Tian is in for it now," Oscar muttered under his breath.

Tang San furrowed his brows. He was considering whether he should intervene if Zhao Wuji truly decided to discipline Ao Tian.

Based on the subtle facial expression Zhao Wuji had just displayed, he speculated that Ao Tian was speaking the truth. However, even if he were to step in, it wasn't certain that he could defeat Zhao Wuji.

In the previous battle, Zhao Wuji was simply careless. This time, he was prepared and wouldn't give Ao Tian another chance to release his hidden weapons.

Ao Tian wasn't panicked by Zhao Wuji's intimidation. He smiled and said, "Teacher Zhao, feeling a little uneasy, are we?"

Zhao Wuji glared at Ao Tian, emitting the aura of a Spirit Saint, pressing down on him, and angrily said, "If I don't teach you a lesson today, my name isn't Zhao Wuji!"

"Ao Tian, what are you up to, Teacher Zhao?" A scolding voice came from afar. Xiao Wu, along with Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, came rushing back.

Zhao Wuji's momentum halted, and he didn't immediately make a move.

Ao Tian chuckled, "I just mentioned that Teacher Zhao was eavesdropping on you three going to relieve yourselves, and he couldn't resist wanting to teach me a lesson."

Ao Tian's words weren't wrong. Zhao Wuji did want to eavesdrop on Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to uncover the secret of their automatic recovery. If the three girls were indeed relieving themselves, it would surely be heard.

Xiao Wu always trusted Ao Tian's words unconditionally. As soon as Ao Tian finished speaking, she glared angrily at Zhao Wuji and said, "Teacher Zhao, I never thought you'd be so low."

"You've misunderstood, I'm not—" Zhao Wuji hurriedly explained.

"Teacher Zhao, I never imagined you'd be this twisted. I'll go back and inform the dean, and I'll also write a letter to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan." Ning Rongrong said.

Ning Rongrong's words carried significant weight, and Zhao Wuji's imposing aura instantly withered. He said, "I really never intended to eavesdrop on you relieving yourselves. You've misunderstood."

He was afraid, afraid that Ning Rongrong would really spread this matter back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. It was worth noting that the head of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had the surname Ning, and it was rumored that there was also a daughter in her prime. On Ning Rongrong's first day here, Zhao Wuji had already speculated about her identity.

He had been beaten by a Titled Douluo just a few days ago. He didn't want to be pursued by two more Titled Douluo after some time.

Ao Tian said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, let's forget about it. Ning Rongrong, there's no need for you to write to the sect. Look at how frightened you've made Teacher Zhao."

"Alright," Ning Rongrong agreed.

She still attached great importance to Ao Tian's words. Because she was grateful to Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena, and they were Ao Tian's women, she obeyed everything Ao Tian said.

There was still half a day's journey ahead, and she would still rely on Gu Yuena to carry her.

Zhao Wuji let out a sigh of relief and said, "You're free to move around. I'll go for a walk, and we'll continue in an hour."

After saying that, he hurriedly walked away. Being toyed with by these kids, he couldn't bear it, even with his thick skin.

However, a surge of frustration welled up in his heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.

After Zhao Wuji left, Xiao Wu asked, "Ao Tian, is Teacher Zhao really that twisted?"

Ao Tian shook his head and said, "I think he was just curious about how your soul power and stamina could automatically recover, so he tried to eavesdrop."

"Ah—so does that mean he heard us...that?" Ning Rongrong suddenly felt a mix of embarrassment and anger.

As a girl, knowing that someone was trying to eavesdrop on that kind of sound was incredibly awkward.

Oscar quickly reassured, "Rongrong, don't worry. Ao Tian caught Teacher Zhao trying to eavesdrop right from the beginning."

Ning Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Oscar, saying, "Aren't you supposed to be on Teacher Zhao's side, defending him?"

Oscar immediately puffed up his chest and said, "I, Oscar, still have a sense of justice. Teacher Zhao was indeed in the wrong in this matter. Even though we've had a few years of friendship, I wouldn't defend him."

"You're still considered a man," Ning Rongrong said.

In Oscar's heart, he was suddenly excited and started to daydream.

"Is she praising me? Could it be that she's starting to appreciate me? It seems like I still have a chance..." Oscar couldn't help but think.

Unfortunately, Ning Rongrong didn't give him another glance.
