After leaving the small room, Mo Xiao slowly walked away from the square, intending to return to rest after the examination.
Two guards suddenly appeared in front of Mo Xiao.
“What are you doing?” Looking at the two people who suddenly appeared, Mo Xiao’s brows instantly furrowed.
His right hand instantly grabbed the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella behind him. As long as there was anything wrong, Mo Xiao would attack immediately.
Seeing Mo Xiao’s actions, the two guards were also stunned. Then, they revealed a disdainful smile and said, “I’m sorry, candidate, you can’t go out now.”
“Why?” Hearing this, Mo Xiao frowned even more. Was she trying to force him to stay?
“The City Lord has ordered that no examinees are allowed to leave the examination hall before the end of today’s college entrance examination,” the guard said indifferently. “Please understand. Of course, you can choose to barge in forcefully, but don’t blame us for being impolite at that time.”
The two guards’ words seemed to be provoking him. Just as Mo Xiao was feeling puzzled, a familiar voice slowly sounded behind him.
“You two guards have such foul mouths. Aren’t you afraid of offending someone you can’t afford to offend?”
Hearing this voice, the two guards frowned and looked in the direction of the voice. Their expressions suddenly changed and they hurriedly lowered their heads. “Miss Su…”
“Senior Sister? Why are you here too?” Seeing Su Jin’er suddenly appear, Mo Xiao’s face revealed a rare trace of surprise.
Su Jin’er raised an eyebrow and said without much enthusiasm, “Why, did you miss me? Should I leave?”
“Just before this, you said you were going to command the battle for the War God on the Tianyuan Battlefield, so 1 thought you wouldn’t come.” Mo Xiao’s expression remained calm, showing no special emotions.
Su Jin’er poked Mo Xiao’s head and said, “There are other senior brothers guarding the battlefield. I came with Master.”
“Did Senior Archmage really come?” Mo Xiao asked curiously.
“Yes,” Su Jin’er nodded. “Yanzhan Tian was here too. They saw your performance just now and seemed quite satisfied.
“Alright, let’s not talk here anymore. I’ll bring you to see Master.”
Hearing this, Mo Xiao was also stunned. “Can 1?”
“Why not? Didn’t you already meet Yan Zhantian? It’s not a problem to meet my master.” As Su Jin’er spoke, she grabbed Mo Xiao’s arm.
Dragging Mo Xiao, he ran towards the spectator stand.
Looking at Mo Xiao and Su Jin’er leaving, the two guards were a little dumbfounded. “That kid just now… called Miss Su ‘Senior Sister’?”
“It seems so…”
“If I remember correctly… Miss Su is the disciple of the Archmage, right?”
“It seems so…”
“I feel like we might have offended someone we shouldn’t have…”
At the same time, outside the spectator stand, Yan Zhantian and Yao Shi’er quietly floated silently in mid-air, watching the bustling square below.
“You’re really lazy, aren’t you? You don’t even want to find a place to sit.” Yao Shi’er looked helplessly at Yan Zhantian beside her.
“Hey, standing in the sky, not only does it eliminate the hustle and bustle of the city, but it also puts us in harmony with the city. It’s a kind of artistic conception!” Yan Zhantian said with a look of enjoyment.
Yao Shi’er, upon hearing this, smiled in exasperation. “You’re just making it up!”
Just as the two were chatting casually, Yao Shi’er suddenly glanced down and smiled. “Your artistic conception is gone.”
“Huh? What happened?” Yan Zhantian followed Yao Shier’s gaze and saw that Su Jin’er had brought Mo Xiao up. “Wow! How did those two find their way up here?”
Yao Shi’er smiled and said, “Tracking is Jin’er’s specialty, and I’m here, so she naturally found them in no time.”
“Alright, this is good. Let’s take this opportunity for you to see that kid. He’s truly a rare talent,” Yan Zhantian said with a grin.
“Master, I’m here!” Su Jin’er had just flown up when she said, “Master, you guys really know how to pick a location. You actually flew up into the sky. I was right here, but 1 couldn’t see you at all.
“By the way, Master, I brought my junior brother with me. 1 hope you don’t mind that 1 brought him here in advance,” Su Jin’er said with a grin.
Yao Shi’er smiled and said, “You’ve already brought him here, so what can 1 say? But 1 haven’t agreed to take him as my disciple yet.”
“Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll accept him!” Su Jin’er said confidently, while also giving Mo Xiao a pleading look.
Mo Xiao, seeing this, hesitated for a moment but eventually took a couple of steps forward and said, “I’m Mo Xiao. I’ve had the honor of meeting Senior Archmage.”
“Don’t be so formal. Jin’er has always treated you like a younger brother, so there’s no need to be so restrained here,” Yao Shier said, her gentle gaze carefully examining Mo Xiao.
“Eh?” Just as Yao Shi’er saw Mo Xiao’s appearance, she suddenly exclaimed softly.
“What’s wrong, Master?” Su Jin’er was also a little worried, afraid that Mo Xiao had done something to upset Yao Shi’er.
Yao Shi’er frowned and looked at Mo Xiao in front of her, “I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before…”
“It shouldn’t be possible. I’ve lived in Yicheng Base City since I was a child, and I’ve never met Senior before,” Mo Xiao shook his head.
Yao Shi’er frowned as if she was thinking about something. “Your eyes are very similar to someone in my memory… but it shouldn’t be…”
When Yan Zhantian heard Yao Shi’er’s words, he narrowed his eyes but didn’t say anything.
“Your name is Mo Xiao, right?” Yao Shi’er suddenly asked.
“Yes.” Mo Xiao nodded and quietly looked at Yao Shi’er, waiting for her next words.
Yao Shi’er remained silent for a moment and then said, “Come with me. I have something I want to ask you privately.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiao glanced at Su Jin’er with curiosity.
Su Jin’er, seeing the situation, immediately said, “Master, if you have something to ask, can’t you ask it here? I also want to hear.”
“Alright, you stay here and chat with Yan Zhantian. We’ll be back soon.” Yao Shier declined Su Jin’er’s request. “Don’t worry, it’s just a conversation. I won’t do anything to him.”
With that, Yao Shier beckoned to Mo Xiao and then turned and flew away into the distance.
Mo Xiao quickly followed behind Yao Shi’er without saying anything.
Seeing this, Su Jin’er pouted and was about to follow, but she was stopped by Yan Zhantian.
“Your master has something to ask that kid privately. You don’t need to tag along,” Yan Zhan Tian said calmly. “She won’t harm Mo Xiao. You can rest assured.”
“I know my master won’t harm Mo Xiao! I’m just curious! Aren’t you curious too?” Su Jin’er said irritably.
“Well, maybe a little-“
