Su Mo patted Xie Xie on the shoulder, offering words of comfort with a painstaking expression.
Of course, this is a lie!
As a member of the Uchiha clan, how could Su Mo be unable to control his genjutsu? This statement was merely meant for Gu Yue's ears.
In Su Mo's illusion, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were reunited with their families, but Gu Yue received special treatment from Su Mo.
Su Mo did this to test Gu Yue.
Su Mo knew everything about Tang Wulin and Xie Xie among the three.
Especially Tang Wulin, Su Mo had a clear record of how many times he wet the bed and how many times he drank milk from childhood to adulthood.
The only one Su Mo knew very little about was Gu Yue, who had recently appeared and shown great favor to Tang Wulin.
Su Mo had also sent people to investigate Gu Yue's background, but they did not get the information they wanted.
Currently, Su Mo only knows that Gu Yue is Leng Yaozhu's disciple.
As for Gu Yue's experiences before becoming Leng Yaozhu's disciple, Su Mo knew nothing about them.
Su Mo had considered delving deeper into Gu Yue's origins.
However, considering that this might be noticed by the other party, Su Mo chose to give up after careful consideration.
However, Su Mo had a rough idea of Gu Yue's identity.
Gu Yue and Gu Yue Na differ by only the character "Na".
Na'er was the name Gu Yuena used when she lived in Tang Wulin's house.
In addition, Gu Yue's special attention to Tang Wulin made it hard for Su Mo not to connect them.
"without……"
Before Xie Xie could finish speaking, Wu Changkong delivered a chop to his head.
Xie Xie, in pain, was about to turn around and yell at whoever was so inconsiderate, but when he saw it was Wu Changkong, he immediately became quiet.
Wu Changkong ignored Xie Xie and walked straight up to Su Mo. "You're a spirit-type soul master, right? Can I see your martial soul?"
Although it was a request, Su Mo could hear the implication of an unyielding command in it.
Su Mo, not one to tolerate Wu Changkong's behavior, retorted directly, "Shouldn't you state your name before asking someone for a favor?"
"You...don't recognize me?" Wu Changkong was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief.
"Who are you?" Looking at the inexplicably confident Wu Changkong, Su Mo frowned, pretending to be thinking seriously.
Su Mo certainly knew Wu Changkong, but Wu Changkong's commanding tone made Su Mo very unhappy, which is why he gave him a hard time.
Seeing that Su Mo genuinely didn't recognize him, Wu Changkong coldly stated his name, "Wu Changkong."
"Wu Changkong?" Su Mo muttered the name repeatedly, as if trying to memorize it.
"Now you can show your martial spirit, right?" Wu Changkong urged from the side.
Wu Changkong never expected that such a rare spirit-type soul master as Su Mo would appear in Donghai Academy, an obscure little place.
Faced with Wu Changkong's urging, Su Mo, who had been smiling, suddenly changed her expression and said in a serious tone, "I refuse!"
After saying that, Su Mo turned and left without waiting for Wu Changkong's reaction.
Watching Su Mo's dashing departure, Xie Xie and Tang Wulin, standing behind Wu Changkong, secretly gave him a thumbs up.
It wasn't until Su Mo had walked away that Wu Changkong realized he had been tricked by Su Mo.
With nowhere else to vent his anger, Wu Changkong could only direct his ire at Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, who were gloating from the sidelines.
With a dark expression, Wu Changkong turned to the two men and ordered, "The task of investigating Su Mo's martial soul is now in your hands."
"I need to see information about Su Mo's martial soul before tomorrow."
"Ah~~!"
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie never expected that they would get caught in the crossfire when they were just watching a show.
The two initially wanted to decline, but after seeing Wu Changkong's cold gaze, they nodded in agreement like chickens pecking at rice.
Seeing this, Wu Changkong nodded in satisfaction. Just as Wu Changkong was about to say something more, Long Hengxu, the dean of students, suddenly interrupted, "Teacher Wu, the principal has something to discuss with you."
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong instinctively wanted to refuse.
But after considering the principal's consideration for her, she nodded in agreement.
Moreover, Wu Changkong himself also had something to discuss with Yu Zhen.
"By the way, you two shouldn't bother Gu Yue today. Let her have some peace and quiet by herself."
Before leaving, Wu Changkong seemed to remember something and turned back to give instructions to Tang Wulin and Xie Xie.
Wu Changkong had actually noticed Gu Yue's unusual behavior and her quiet departure long ago.
Although he didn't interact with Gu Yue much, Wu Changkong knew from Gu Yue's subtle daily actions that Gu Yue was a person even more arrogant than himself at heart.
Although I don't know why, Tang Wulin is the only person in the entire East Sea Academy who can command Gu Yue's respect and deference.
Yet this proud man was defeated in a single glance.
The huge gap between these two extremes was something Gu Yue couldn't accept for a while.
If you rush to comfort them at this point, it could very well backfire.
Only after Gu Yue accepts it herself can Wu Changkong slowly guide her.

Chapter 7 Tang San's Dejection
"The plan was a great success!"
After declining Ye Yingluo's invitation to a celebration banquet, Su Mo dashed out of the school.
The reason why Tang Wulin and his two companions suffered such a crushing defeat this time was entirely due to a lack of intelligence.
Despite Su Mo's best efforts to be lenient, Tang Wulin and the others insisted on sending him off.
If they had seriously investigated Su Mo's martial soul before the competition, they wouldn't have suffered such a crushing defeat.
After all, Su Mo's shortcomings are still quite obvious when he is out in the public eye.
Just as Su Mo was pondering where to go for fun today, a white figure in the distance instantly caught his attention.
"That's... Gu Yue?"
Even from a distance, Su Mo recognized the other person.
Su Mo did not expect that Gu Yue would leave Tang Wulin and act alone.
You should know that ever since Gu Yue entered Donghai Academy, she has spent her days either going to school with Tang Wulin or cultivating alone in her dormitory.
This is the first time I've ever sneaked out like this.
Was it because I hit her too hard?
Watching Gu Yue's departing figure, Su Mo pondered to himself.
Su Mo quickly realized what was happening and hurried after them.
"Non-my family, its heart must be different!"
"Non-my family, its heart must be different!"
Throughout the journey, this sentence seemed to possess some kind of magic, constantly echoing in Gu Yue's mind.
The disturbance made Gu Yue so upset that she didn't even see Su Mo, who was swaggering behind her.
It wasn't until someone secretly reminded her that Gu Yue realized Su Mo's presence.
"Why are you following me?"
Gu Yue turned around with a stern face, staring unfriendly at Su Mo behind her.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little concerned about you, Gu Yue."
As if she had anticipated Gu Yue's question, Su Mo had already prepared her answer.
"for me?"
Gu Yue pointed to herself, a hint of surprise flashing across her pretty face.
Gu Yue had no idea that Su Mo had followed her just to say this.
"Yes! I care about you a lot, Gu Yue."
Seeing that Gu Yue didn't believe him, Su Mo repeated it aloud again.
Su Mo's voice was so loud that Gu Yue looked around nervously, afraid of being seen.
After confirming that no one was around, Gu Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The worries that had been on my mind were temporarily put aside by Su Mo's outburst.
"I'm not interested in you. If there's nothing else, don't ever show your face in front of me again."
After calming herself down a bit, Gu Yue looked at Su Mo with utmost seriousness and spoke slowly and deliberately.
Gu Yue originally wanted to warn Su Mo again, but considering that she had just been defeated by him, she could only swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
"You got rejected right away? Gu Yue, you're so heartless!" Although Su Mo said this, he wasn't surprised at all that Gu Yue had rejected him.
"Never mind, here's my contact information."
"Gu Yue, if you ever change your mind, remember to look for me!"
After saying that, Su Mo took out a business card from his storage ring and tossed it to Gu Yue.
Gu Yue was about to refuse when she saw Su Mo walk away.
"Neuropathy!!!"
Watching Su Mo's departing figure, Gu Yue cursed angrily.
