"You're quite well-prepared. You've arranged for someone to pick us up." The elder saw the two of them and came forward, "Feize, we may be few in number, but we're also respected."
Xie Feize thought that this old man was still as prideful as before. If he wasn't like this, perhaps not so many people would call him Old Heretic Lu.
"Who are you? Xu Yun's men? Or Zuo Lengyue's men? "Lu Xuanji asked the two who came forward.
Yi Shui heard this and shook her head expressionlessly.
"I'm Xu Yun's man." Bu Feifan admitted quickly, "Who are you?"
"We're from the Hunter School." Yi Shui immediately corrected Bu Feifan. They couldn't be considered Xu Yun's men. This lowered the status of the Ancient Magpie World. Although this didn't matter, and the Ancient Magpie World came because of Xu Yun, she still had to show her identity as the principal.
Lu Xuanji heard this and laughed, "So you're Little Bird's men."
Yi Shui's expression changed when she heard this.
Little Bird …
This guy actually called their principal Little Bird!
Yi Shui had never heard this nickname before, but she had heard some 'gossip' from E Yuan and the others about the principal when he was young. It was said that the principal's sworn brother gave him a nickname, Little Bird.
Because there was a magpie in his name, he was called Little Bird. However, not everyone could call him that. The number of people who dared to call him that could be counted on one's fingers.
"You are?" Yi Shui frowned. If this person was qualified to call the principal Little Bird, she would treat him with respect.
However, if this guy didn't have the qualifications and still dared to call him that, Yi Shui would definitely turn hostile.
"He probably told you who I am." Lu Xuanji smiled, "He likes to call me Old Heretic Lu. We're old friends."
Yi Shui suddenly realized that this person was the Evil God. Because she had lived in seclusion for many years, she had only heard of him from the principal.
No wonder he dared to call the Ancient Magpie World Little Bird …
"Senior Lu," Yi Shui said.
"No need to be so polite. I don't have that many rules." Lu Xuanji smiled, "I didn't expect you guys to arrive so quickly. I thought I would be the first to arrive here."
Yi Shui motioned for Bu Feifan to come over. "This is Senior Lu. According to seniority, you should call him Grandpa Lu."
Bu Feifan was stunned, and so was Lu Xuanji.
"His name is Bu Feifan. He's Xu Yun's godson." Yi Shui said, "He's in the Hunter Academy with us."
"Pretty good. Forget about calling me Grandpa, it sounds awkward," Lu Xuanji said, "Are Xu Yun and Pigeon here yet?"
Bu Feifan shook his head. "Old Master Lu, they haven't arrived yet. We thought they were the ones on the plane you came to, so we rushed here."
"Where is Old Gu?" Lu Xuanji did not call the Ancient Magpie World Little Bird anymore because he finally realized that he had to save some face for the Ancient Magpie World in front of the children. This nickname was not domineering and would easily make the younger generation lose respect for him.
"The principal and the empress are having breakfast," Bu Feifan said. "We will bring you there now."
"Okay." Lu Xuanji said, "Coincidentally, I'm also hungry. I wonder if there's anything delicious on this island that Zuo Lengyue arranged for us to gather here."
When they returned, Zuo Lengyue had already eaten breakfast. The Ancient Magpie World did not have much of an appetite, and the food in front of him was almost untouched.
When Lu Xuanji appeared, the usually calm Ancient Magpie World was slightly excited. "I didn't expect an old man like you to come too."
"We haven't seen each other for so many years, and this is how you welcome me." Lu Xuanji laughed. "I'm an old man, which means that you're not young anymore. Hahahaha!"
"Hello, Principal Gu," Xie Feize greeted him.
Dongfang Fan and the others from the Hunter Academy also came forward to greet Lu Xuanji.
"I didn't expect Feize to be so mature now," Ancient Magpie World said with a smile.
Lu Xuanji did not only think about the relationship between brothers. He immediately said to Zuo Lengyue, "You, the empress, have good taste. This place is really great. I like this kind of environment where people are passionate."
"Evil God, are you mocking me for choosing a place that's too hot?" Zuo Lengyue smiled faintly.
Lu Xuanji did not stand on ceremony. He sat on a chair beside Ancient Magpie World and ate the uneaten breakfast in front of him. "I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart."
"My old man likes this kind of environment," Xie Feize said from the side.
Originally, Zuo Lengyue wanted to thank them for coming. However, when she thought about how Ancient Magpie World "understood" that they came to give face to Xu Yun, Zhang Taisui, and Xu Chen, who was in the prison for serious criminals on Martifran Island. It was not because of her, so she did not say any more polite words.
However, Lu Xuanji suddenly expressed his gratitude. "Empress, we really have to thank you for today's matter. If it wasn't for you, us brothers might not be able to meet again in our lifetime."
Zuo Lengyue just smiled faintly and expressed her gratitude.
"Old Evil Lu, I don't understand. Why did you come personally with your health condition?" Ancient Magpie World said this not because he wanted to change the topic, but because he suddenly thought of this point.
Lu Xuanji's physical condition was not optimistic. This was not a secret to many people, especially after he imparted his skills to Lin Ge. His condition should be even worse.
"I know my own body best." Lu Xuanji shook his head. "Besides, I didn't come here to risk my life with you guys."
Ancient Magpie World was startled. "What do you mean?"
"You can't expect me to do such a dangerous thing with my health condition, right?" Lu Xuanji laughed and pushed Xie Feize forward. "I'll leave this kind of dangerous thing to them in the future. I don't intend to play such a big game."
Lu Xuanji knew his own physical condition very well. Not to mention going to the fourth or fifth floor, even if he stayed on the first floor, he might not be a match for anyone.
However, Old Evil Lu did not believe in heresy. He believed that even in his current situation, he could still provide a certain amount of help in certain situations.
So no matter how Xie Feize persuaded him, he finally chose to come in person.
He clearly told Xie Feize that it was no longer his era. He would no longer charge into the enemy lines, but his experience would definitely be able to help the weaker ones.
This was the reason why Lu Xuanji insisted on coming.
"You are really considerate." Zuo Lengyue really admired Lu Xuanji for this.
She felt that if it were anyone else in his situation, they would have a reason to shirk this matter.
Moreover, he was able to send Xie Feize and Lin Ge out, which was already a great help to them. Now, he had to wear them himself. It could be said that he was playing with his life by using his severely weakened body.
"If everyone is here this time and I don't come, we won't be friends in the future." Lu Xuanji smiled and changed the topic. He didn't want everyone to pay attention to his situation.
Although he was no longer as strong as he was in the past, he was still Old Evil Lu. He still had a strong heart.
In this kind of place, no one wanted to be treated as a weakling.
"It seems that we really have to prepare a toast to Big Brother." Ancient Magpie World looked up at the sky. Zhang Jianzhi had been riding the crane for so many years. The heart-wrenching pain they once felt might have faded a lot, but whenever they thought about it, they would always feel uncomfortable.
The expression on Lu Xuanji's face also slowly calmed down. Yes, Ancient Magpie World was right. It was indeed time for a toast.
