Chapter 171 Meeting Teacher Huo Again
Chapter 171 Meeting Teacher Huo Again
But when Qi Yu heard it, he still felt very shocked, because in his impression, the boss "Eye of Cthulhu" should be very simple. How could it have such great destructive power?
Just when Qi Yu was confused, Qi Yang immediately shifted his gaze from Zhang Xu to him again, and then said, "Boy, what's your name?"
Qi Yu was interrupted by his words, and then he saw his eyes that could penetrate his soul again. Qi Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "Senior, my name is Qi Yu."
Qi Yang nodded: "Qi Yu, I'm going to ask you a question, and you answer me truthfully."
Qi Yu nodded subconsciously, while Zhang Xu on the side looked at Qi Yu strangely. She didn't understand why Qi Yang was interested in his apprentice.
Qi Yang then asked a question that shocked him: "Do you know who you are?"
After hearing this, Qi Yu was stunned for a moment, because this was the third time he heard someone ask him this question. The first time was at the Central Weapon Shop, when the man in black who gave him the demon sword Muramasa asked him this question.
The second time was when he had just arrived at the college and met Wu Yi again. Wu Yi asked the same question.
And the third time is now, the white ghost senior in front of him asked the same question.
As the saying goes, one thing can happen once or twice, but not three times. If the first and second times could be considered coincidences, the third time cannot be regarded as a coincidence.
Qi Yu had a strange expression on his face. He didn't understand why the other party asked this question. Who am I? Are they asking about my identity? I'm just a wood element apprentice. Or... do they know that I'm a time traveler? !
As soon as Qi Yu had this thought, he quickly shook his head: "Impossible, impossible! I haven't told anyone about this."
Looking back on these days, Qi Yu thought that he had not done anything that could reveal that he was not from this world. So what on earth was he implying about me?
Qi Yu collected his thoughts. After all, he had to answer the other party's question, so he said, "I... my name is Qi Yu, and I'm a new apprentice at the Wood Element Academy."
When Qi Yang saw that Qi Yu had no more words to say, he looked at him deeply, then nodded and said, "I understand."
Seeing this, Qi Yu quickly said: "Senior, I don't know what the deep meaning of your question is. If there is any other meaning, please give me some advice."
Qi Yang waved his hand and said, "It's not time yet. You will understand it naturally when the time comes." Then he turned around and prepared to leave.
Qi Yu wanted to say something when he saw him leaving, but he heard him say, "The Elemental City is not peaceful recently. You should be prepared."
This sentence seemed to be a kind reminder, but the deeper meaning was that he wanted to use Zhang Xu to remind the Wood Element Academy behind them.
"I understand. Thank you for the reminder, senior." After saying that, Zhang Xu bowed his head and saluted, then gestured to Qi Yu, indicating that he should follow suit and salute.
Qi Yu subconsciously followed her order and bowed his head to see her off, but the doubts in his heart prompted him to open his mouth and ask.
However, just when he looked up to ask, he was surprised to find that the other party had already stepped half a foot into the portal.
"Forward..." Qi Yu was about to speak when he saw that the other party had entered the portal and left, leaving him with only a gradually disappearing portal.
Qi Yu opened his mouth and stood there in a daze, watching the other person leave.
Zhang Xu reached out and patted his head: "Come back to your senses! What are you looking at? We should leave now."
"Oh." Qi Yu came back to his senses and responded softly. Then he thought with regret in his heart: I don't know when I can meet her again.
"The man in black... Wu Yi... Qi Yang... Are the three of them related?" Qi Yu frowned and followed Zhang Xu: "I have to ask Wu Yi when I get back to see what he knows."
Zhang Xu walked in front, looked back at Qi Yu who was absent-minded, and asked indifferently: "Xiao Yu, do you know Senior Qi Yang?"
"Ah? I didn't know him. I only knew his name and deeds after listening to you today, teacher." Qi Yu stopped thinking, looked up and said.
"Then why did he tell you so much?" Zhang Xu asked puzzledly.
Qi Yu shook his head: "Teacher, I really don't understand this, and the question he asked me is also very confusing. What do you mean I don't know who I am? How can I not know who I am?"
Zhang Xu didn't say anything, but turned her head away silently. But in her heart, she was thinking: "This boy can actually attract Qi Yang's attention. Could it be that he has some secret?"
Zhang Xu glanced at Qi Yu who was following him obediently, and continued to think: "Or maybe he is actually the only son of some hidden big family who was left behind."
The two of them walked one after the other, both of them constantly thinking about random things.
Suddenly Qi Yu looked up, looked at the surrounding environment, then pulled the corner of Zhang Xu's clothes and said:
"Teacher, how are we going to get out? Even though the Moon Worshiper has escaped, his magic circle that trapped us is still here."
Zhang Xu shook his head slightly: "Don't worry, what do you think Senior Qi Yang is doing? Just wait and see, it will be fine in a while."
Qi Yu frowned and said, "We can't let that moon-worshipping priest run into us by chance."
Zhang Xu immediately flicked his head with his finger and said, "You are such a bad-mouthed person. I have to tell you something. If this happens, don't expect me to fight him again. I have already used up all my magic power to cover your retreat."
After hearing this, Qi Yu rubbed his red forehead, then said with a smile: "Thank you, teacher. You are always good to me." After that, he handed a bottle of mana recovery potion he had obtained before to Zhang Xu.
Zhang Xu looked at the magic potion in Qi Yu's little hand, then smiled slightly and took it.
At this time, Wu Yi, who was not far away, was slowly following the two of them. He frowned and felt a little anxious because Qi Yu was with Zhang Xu at this time.
As the saying goes, "A lean camel is bigger than a horse." Although Zhang Xu had exhausted all his magic power, he still did not have the courage to snatch things in front of a teacher.
"Didn't the teacher ask me to help the people from the Water Element Academy to snatch the Frost Core? What are those people from the Water Element Academy doing? Why haven't they come yet? If they don't come, they will leave."
Wu Yi grumbled in his heart, and then secretly followed the two of them. He didn't know if it was the effect of Wu Yi's prayers, but he saw another figure standing not far away opposite the two of them.
Qi Yu and Zhang Xu also saw the figure, then slowly stopped and looked at the shadow with vigilance.
The latter seemed to have seen Qi Yu and the other two as well, so he also stopped and did not dare to approach.
"Teacher, there seems to be someone over there." Qi Yu whispered to Zhang Xu, "But it seems to be just one person. Could it be the Moon Worshiper who ran away earlier?"
Zhang Xu lowered his voice and said, "Shut up, let's take a look first. Judging from the body shape, it shouldn't be her. The person in front is obviously thinner, so she should be a woman."
"Female?" A figure appeared in Qi Yu's mind, and then he grinned and cursed in his heart: "I can't be so unlucky, it's better to meet the Moon Worship Priest. If it's really that crazy woman, she will hate me to death."
Thinking of this, Qi Yu wanted to pull Zhang Xu back, and said as he pulled: "Teacher, let's retreat first, the other party is not friendly."
Zhang Xu thought about it and nodded: "Okay, you are right, let's go to avoid conflict with him."
But before they could make any move, the person on the opposite side seemed to sense something and rushed towards them quickly. As the distance between them got closer, Qi Yu could see the other person's appearance clearly.
Sure enough, it was the teacher from the Water Element Academy who had come to kill him before. Her teacher's robe was already tattered, not much better than Zhang Xu's. Her hair was disheveled, her face was covered with dust, and she looked quite disheveled. The most important thing was that she was now alone and didn't even have a follower.
