Days after the assembly came to an end, life continued at the other sects. At the GuBaiJin sect, morning lesson was one of tension rather than the usual hilarity that came from the mischief maker of the sect. Although, most of the classmates of Jin Tieguai did not get along well with him, but they secretly looked forward to what he would do each time they were in class. Rather than his usual highly spirited self, he was more mellow and wasn't talking as much or getting their head teacher worked up with his antics.
"What is wrong with Jin Tieguai? I she sick?!"
The disciple named Jin An asked no one in particular while he spoke in his usual timid way.
"Isn't it a good thing?!"
"I didn't say it wasn't, but I think something must have happened to him. You know the saying that where there is smoke there's bound to be fire!"
Jin An looked expectantly at the faces of his fellow junior disciples, who sat close to him and the young master of the GuBaijin sect.
