The young man answered in the darkness, and then gradually walked away, and soon even the footsteps disappeared.
Listening to the young man's footsteps getting further away, Zi Tong just shrugged his shoulders.
She didn't know his name, and she didn't even see his appearance. Even if she said goodbye, how could she know it was him?!
Touching the box in her hand, Zi Tong put it directly into the ring, and then walked in the opposite direction where the young man left.
He was just a sideshow. After he left, she would continue her journey of trials alone.
Not long after walking forward, she already felt something strange.
It seemed that someone was secretly watching her in the dark, Zi Tong clenched the handle of the Qingfeng Liuyun Blade in her hand.
In mid-air, sharp objects broke through the air.
She raised her hand and drew the knife, and the blade flew through the air, accurately hitting the thing that was coming towards her, making a crisp sound.
Based on the sound, she had already determined that it was a stone that she had just cut in half.
"who?!"
Zi Tong shouted and asked.
If it was a star beast, it would be impossible to throw stones at her.
What responded to her was more rocks that sneaked up on her, hitting her from left to right, from front to back, from above her head... from all directions.
Zi Tong swung her sword to meet her, and the blade hit the rocks, making a series of clanking sounds and falling on the ground beside her, but none of them really came close to her.
Everything stopped.
The surroundings became calm again.
Behind the head, there is wind, slight movement.
Zi Tong suddenly returned the knife and cut it down.
The blade sank, and something seemed to grab her knife.
Just as she was about to wave her left hand, Mr. Xue's voice came from in front of her.
"Time is up!"
"Mr. Snow?!" Zi Tong asked.
The fire light lit up, reflecting the cloth bag on Mr. Xue's face. The silver hair on his forehead was slightly messy. The tip of the purple-eyed knife was on his right shoulder, sandwiched between his fingers.
Mr. Xue loosened his fingers, and Zi Tong took back the knife, "Didn't you say you wouldn't save me?"
He found her so quickly. If she guessed correctly, he should have been not far from her all along, right?
This master spoke so harshly, but in the end he was still the same as Mr. Baicao. How could he really be willing to let her die?!
"Did I save you?!" Mr. Xue asked.
Zi Tong smiled, he really didn't.
However, if she was really in danger, would he really not be able to save her?!
"Have you seen that boy before?!"
Thinking of that young man, Zi Tong asked curiously.
"No, or I don't recognize him even if I've seen him before." Mr. Xue replied calmly.
He has lost his eyesight. Although he can use his sensitive senses to know the beginning, he cannot know the appearance of a person no matter what.
"I'm sorry." Zi Tong realized the mistake in her choice of words and apologized hurriedly.
Because Mr. Xue never looked like a blind person, she never regarded him as a real blind person, so she asked him if he had "seen" him before.
"It's nothing." Mr. Xue put away his anger, "Although I have never met him, he seems to be very adaptable to this place. He should come here often. I think he is also a disciple of the academy. There are not many people with his level in the academy.
If you want to check it, it should be easy."
Zi Tong shrugged, "Forget it."
The young man didn't introduce himself, nor did he ask her name. It was obvious that he didn't want her to know his identity, so why should she force it?!
