Qingkuang nodded and expressed his appreciation for Mu Liufeng's dedication and kindness. He added:
"In that case, please trouble Teacher Mu Liufeng and take us to see Principal Suo! The prince and I have something important to discuss with him."
"Principal Suo now lives alone in the backyard and has not seen outsiders for many years.
Ever since the Imperial College fell into disrepair, in the entire Fengyun Continent, due to the dangers brought by the war and the strength of the Fengyun Kingdom, not even a single one of the original students has come to visit the principal."
Mu Liufeng said with emotion.[
Qingkuang nodded, feeling a sense of sadness in her heart, although in her impression, Suo Wenming had always been a rigid and serious old man.
But no matter what, during the competition, it was the old man's mistake that allowed her to make an exception and enter the backyard of the college, and she had a series of encounters.
While talking, Mu Liufeng led Qing Kuang and Ao Junxie through the corridors of the college, to the empty and familiar backyard area, and into a dark and old alley. This was the bustling Imperial College in the past.
's library.
With the sound of a creaking wooden door turning, the three of them walked into the dark and ancient library.
The surrounding light was very dark. Due to the lack of popularity for a long time, when Qing Kuang and Ao Junxie walked in, the dull silence could not help but send a chill down their spines.
"Principal! Look, two of your famous and proud disciples have come to see you! Principal?"
In the darkness, Mu Liufeng shouted softly to the people in the library. When no one responded, he shouted again.
However, the empty library was still silent, making the three of them doubt whether Suo Wenming was really in this room.
After a long time, a faint sound suddenly sounded in the ears of the three people, followed by a flash of yellow flames that tore through the darkness in the room.
In front of a large wooden table piled with books, the outline of an old man with a haggard and shriveled face slowly emerged from the gloom.
Mu Liufeng breathed a sigh of relief, strode forward, and said excitedly to Wen Suoming:
"Principal Suo, it turns out you are here. I thought you were asleep! Look, Qing Kuang and Ao Junxie are here to visit you!"
After saying that, Mu Liufeng turned around and pointed one finger at Qing Kuang and Ao Junxie behind him.
Qing Kuang gave Suo Wenming a friendly smile, and Aojunxie also strode forward, cupped his fists and gave a gentle salute to Suo Wenming, saying:
"We haven't seen you for so many years. How are you doing, Principal Suo? Students Ao Junxie and Feng Qingkuang are here to see you!"
Suo Wenming turned around slowly. Under the candlelight, that old and serious face
At this moment, he looked much older and melancholy than three years ago. He even looked like a mummy in the dark, which was a bit scary.
Suo Wenming didn't seem to show the same enthusiasm as Mu Liufeng for the arrival of Qing Kuang and Ao Junxie. He glanced at Ao Junxie who bowed slightly towards him with a cold expression. After a long time, the corner of his mouth moved slightly.
He sneered and said:
"Ao Junxie? Oh... Fengyun War God... Lord Ao, right? Now in terms of power and status, I am far less than one percent of you. How dare I be the one who treated me with such a great gift. Let's just let it go!" [
Suo Wenming's hoarse voice floated slowly in the darkness, making the three people in front of them feel a little embarrassed.
It seems that the three years of poor and lonely life affected by the war have not only aged Suo Wenming's appearance, but also changed his character.
