“The dean doesn’t need to worry too much.” Shen Yanxiao knew that she couldn’t just casually pick up words at this time. Ouyang Huanyu’s scheming was too deep; a little carelessness and the conversation would shift to a strange topic.
“Oh, you came from the Holy Roland School. How can you say that I don’t need to worry? If you need any help in the Barren Land, I will lend you a helping hand.” Ouyang Huanyu looked as usual, but his heart was quite marveled. Shen Yanxiao’s mind was very calm. He was very earnest, yet he did not see her showing any gratitude.
“Warlock is not an easy profession. The Warlocks of the Radiance Continent suffered a lot of persecution. And many of them were innocent. Fortunately, some of them escaped, but unfortunately, with the situation of the Radiance Continent today, they could not reveal their identity before the people at the moment.” Ouyang Huanyu’s face had a look of regret as he said the matter about the Warlocks.
“Now that you’re standing up where the wind and the waves are the fiercest, the pressure on you is not small. I think the Warlocks hidden in the shadows must be proud of you. If you could one day gather these poor people and let them see the sky again, it would be a wonderful thing.”
Gather the Warlocks? Shen Yanxiao frowned slightly. Ouyang Huanyu’s words revealed a message. It was clear that in addition to Yun Qi, he also knew other Warlocks. He said this much to her today, was it because he wanted her to get in contact with the other Warlocks?
She was willing to let the Warlocks see the light of the day again, but definitely not the people who were cooperating with Ouyang Huanyu.
It was too dangerous to ask the tiger for its skin.
“I’m just a little kid, how could I bear such a heavy responsibility? The Dean thinks too highly of me.” Shen Yanxiao skillfully deflected his words.
Ouyang Huanyu just smiled and looked at Shen Yanxiao before he said, “You’re too humble. I have several Warlock friends who are very excited after learning about your accomplishments. They have been wanting to find time to meet with you. It’s a pity that you already left the Holy Roland School after the school tournament, and soon afterward went to the Barren Land, so they have been unable to find such opportunities.”
Ouyang Huanyu’s friends?
Shen Yanxiao immediately thought of the mysterious person that certain night. That man seemed to recognize Yun Qi. Could he also be a Warlock? If so, then that man wanted to meet with her, only to carry out their previous plans to draw her on their side.
Ouyang Huanyu was really clever. He used the Warlock’s current situation as a starting point to express his compassion and showed that he liked to help the Warlocks. He did not mention anything else, as if he really wanted to help the Warlocks return to the top.
Unfortunately, Shen Yanxiao did not believe him in the slightest. She believed that Yun Qi was looking forward to the return of the Warlocks, but Ouyang Huanyu was not as sincere as Yun Qi. His intentions were certainly not good.
“Is it? It’s a pity. It’s just that the construction of The Rising Sun City is in a critical period. I can’t get out of here for a time. If I have a chance to meet them in the future, then I will.” Shen Yanxiao was very calm postponing this issue. She did not want to have too much involvement with Ouyang Huanyu.
“Alright, then I’ll come to you again.” Ouyang Huanyu did not keep pressing and stopped the discussion promptly.
Ouyang Huanyu quieted down, and Shen Yanxiao would naturally say nothing to him. A pair of young and old people sat in the room in silence.
Shen Yanxiao had no choice but to get up, “I’ll go and ask the State Preceptor Pei Yuan and Prince Long Yue to come over. The dean is, after all, under the order of the Emperor, and must first complete the matter at hand.”
