Huang Tingwei’s tone turned cold, and Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo instantly became nervous.

“Little Zhou.”

Huang Tingwei looked up at Zhou Xiruo. “Tell me, what mistake do you think you made?”

Zhou Xiruo dragged out her words and looked at Wang Xiao for help. Although she could roughly guess what the Academy Head wanted to ask, she did not know if she should say it!

After receiving Zhou Xiruo’s signal, Wang Xiao rolled his eyes and said, “Academy Head, we shouldn’t have been so rash. We should think more carefully in the future…”

“Did I ask you?”

Huang Tingwei glared at Wang Xiao and his malicious gaze landed on Zhou Xiruo’s face. “Speak!”

Zhou Xiruo was so frightened that her entire body trembled and she was almost about to cry. “I-We shouldn’t be so rash. We have to think carefully when we encounter things in the future?” “That’s not right.”

Huang Tingwei shook his head. “Again!”

“You want us to see the essence through the phenomenon?” “Again!” “Pay attention to conserving your strength at all times?”

“Again!”

Zhou Xiruo said five to six “wrong answers” in a row. In the end, she really did not know what to say. Huang Tingwei still had a gloomy expression.

Looking at Zhou Xiruo’s pitiful red eyes, Wang Xiao could not help but say, “Academy Head, you can just say that we made a mistake. There’s no need to bully a little girl like this, right?”

“You think I’m bullying her?”

Huang Tingwei looked at Wang Xiao coldly. “Then tell me, what mistake did she make?”

“I don’t know!”

Wang Xiao frowned and reached out to pull Zhou Xiruo behind him. He looked at Huang Tingwei without backing down. “If you have something to say, just say it. If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave!”

“Hmph… You’re not very capable, but you have a big temper!”

Huang Tingwei sneered and stared at Wang Xiao as he asked faintly, “When you fought the [Sea God Apostle], did you confirm your resources with her?”

Wang Xiao thought for a moment and nodded. “Zhou Xiruo is my vassal lord. Our resources are shared, so we usually leave it to her to manage. What’s wrong?

“What happened?”

Huang Tingwei sneered again. Then, he revealed a resentful expression. “She disguised herself as Fang Tianyu in the [Star Fragmented Sea] and you still treat her as a vassal lord. What do you think is wrong?”

Wang Xiao suddenly recalled that there was indeed such a thing and was instantly speechless.

Huang Tingwei continued, “At that time, that kid surnamed Li had already sensed that something was wrong. If not for the fact that a wave happened to hit you, your disguise would have been exposed, understand?”

“I-I know.”

Wang Xiao nodded obediently. If it were anything else, he could still refute, but this matter was indeed his negligence.

Seeing that Wang Xiao’s attitude was still sincere, Huang Tingwei’s tone softened. “Then tell me the truth. Why did Little Zhou pretend to be Fang Tianyu?

“Academy Head, it’s like this…”

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Wang Xiao did not dare to hide anything at all. He explained the entire matter in detail. Coupled with Zhou Xiruo adding to the story, it was already more than ten minutes later.

During this period, Huang Tingwei only listened quietly. It was not until the two of them finished that he nodded. “Although your actions are very childish, your motives are still understandable. I’ll forget about it this time!”

“Thank you for your understanding, Academy Head!”

Wang Xiao was delighted and immediately thanked him. His impression of this Academy Head improved a lot. Although the other party was difficult to understand most of the time, he seemed to be quite reasonable.

After thanking him, Wang Xiao probed, “Academy Head, if there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first?”

“Wait, there’s one more thing.”

As Huang Tingwei spoke, he opened his suitcase again and took out a document. “Do you recognize it?”

“[Blazing Golden Crow]?”

After Wang Xiao saw the information clearly, his heart trembled. Then, he nodded calmly. “It’s a mutated beast from the [Scorching Purgatory], right?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Tingwei immediately asked, “Where is it now?”

Wang Xiao subconsciously wanted to say that he did not know, but on second thought, he felt that something was wrong. Then, he replied honestly, “It has already been subdued as my contract beast and is now in my territory.”

As he spoke, Wang Xiao pointed at the [Peak Gold Level Three] column on the information. “Moreover, the [Blazing Golden Crow] has successfully broken through not long ago and is now at Platinum Level One.”

Huang Tingwei was a little surprised. “Oh?” Then, he casually waved his hand. “It’s fine. You guys can go back. Remember to deliver that [Venue Card] to the kid from Nine Heavens!”

…Yes!”

Wang Xiao nodded at a loss and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Then, he bade farewell to Zhou Xiruo and left.

After leaving, the two of them finally relaxed.

Zhou Xiruo stroked her chest and said with lingering fear, “I used to think that the Academy Head was quite amiable. I didn’t expect him to be so scary when he gets angry!”

“Perhaps your imagination is too lacking?”

Wang Xiao teased before frowning in confusion. “However, it’s quite strange. Why did the Academy Head suddenly ask about the Blazing Golden Crow? Could it be that Yuheng Academy doesn’t allow students to subdue soldiers in the mystic realm?”

Zhou Xiruo thought for a moment and was about to speak when a bell suddenly rang.

Wang Xiao took out the communicator from his pocket and took a look before answering. “Manager Lin, what’s the matter?”

Kaiyang City, Lord’s Shop.

After letting Zhou Xiruo walk around by herself, Wang Xiao followed Lin Xiang to the manager’s office.

As soon as the two of them sat down, a shop assistant brought tea and snacks. Cups, plates, and plates covered the table, and it was almost impossible to fit them all.

Seeing such a huge scene, Wang Xiao’s expression immediately became a little subtle. “Manager Lin, is it your birthday today?”

“No, no. It’s the way to treat guests!”

Lin Xiang waved his hand and stood up to personally pour a cup of tea for

Wang Xiao. “Brother Wang, quickly try it! I brought this tea back from

Shengdu. You can’t find it in Kaiyang City!”

Wang Xiao picked up the cup and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea spread and his mouth was moist. Even his spirits seemed to have improved.

“Good tea!”

Wang Xiao praised, put down the teacup, and looked at Lin Xiang. ‘Manager Lin, you called me over mysteriously. There’s good tea and snacks… What’s the matter?”

Lin Xiang chuckled. “Brother Wang, what are you talking about? I just thought that we haven’t seen each other for a long time, so I wanted to meet you!”

Wang Xiao smacked his lips. “We just met yesterday.”

“Uh…”

Lin Xiang was speechless for a moment. After a few seconds, he continued with a smile, “A day apart feels like three years!”

“Really? Or are you trying to please me because you have a favor to ask?”

Wang Xiao asked with a faint smile. Then, he suddenly stood up and said, “I’ve been a little busy recently. Since there’s nothing going on with Manager Lin, I’ll leave first.”

With that said, Wang Xiao turned around and walked towards the door. Lin Xiang’s expression changed and he hurriedly shouted, “Don’t! Something’s wrong! Something’s wrong!”

Seeing Wang Xiao stop, Lin Xiang composed himself and said seriously, “Brother Wang, the headquarters wants to ask you for a favor…”
