Bai Qiulian smiled and left, pulling Ren Lingxuan along with her. The Bai Family had properties in Bei Du City, so they didn't have to worry about finding a place to stay.
She also knew that Xu Liao wanted her to go with Ren Lingxuan because he wanted her to make things clear. It wasn't that Xu Liao wanted to shirk his responsibility, but this way, it wouldn't hurt Ren Lingxuan's face. It was the most tactful and most resolute way.
Before Bai Qiulian left, she gave Xu Liao a look that said, "I'll help you separate Senior Sister Ren this time. Next time, you can settle it yourself."
Xu Liao put his palms together and made a gesture of gratitude. Only then did Bai Qiulian leave with Ren Lingxuan.
Finally, he would be alone. He walked slowly and leisurely. Ten minutes later, he finally arrived at his home.
When he opened the door with his key, the door was pushed open. Xu Liao's mother couldn't help but scold her son.
Because he had stayed in the Devil Prison, he came home a few days late, delaying school and registration. This made Xu Liao's mother very angry. This scolding lasted for more than an hour, but the worry in it was self-evident. The strong motherly love was very heartwarming.
Xu Liao naturally had many excuses, and he quickly made his mother happy. He even prepared a small gift, which was bought in the Bai Family's Western Profound Grotto-Heaven. There were many twists and turns for this gift. However, Xu Liao naturally wouldn't tell the truth, so he said it was something he bought on the road.
This gift wasn't expensive, but it was very thoughtful. Xu Liao's mother was instantly much happier. After her son came home, she couldn't help but remember something else. She didn't have time to let her son rest, and she urged him to report to school immediately.
Although Xu Liao wanted to rest at home for a few days, he couldn't resist his mother's urging. He took the admission letter and left home again.
Xu Liao also found it a little funny. He didn't expect that with his current wealth, status, and divine abilities, he would still be forced to go to school by his mother.
Initially, he wanted to go to Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school because of Qu Lei. But now, the situation had changed too much. After so many things, he had already become a couple with Bai Qiulian, so there was no reason for him to go to school.
Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school was located outside the Fourth Ring Road. Although it was one of the best high schools in Bei Du City, it wasn't in the city center. There were no demon-only subway stations, so one could only take the human world's transportation.
Xu Liao took two subways, a bus, and walked for more than ten minutes. It took him a full two hours to reach the entrance of the high school.
On the way, Xu Liao found an excuse to convince himself so that he could accept his upcoming high school life.
Actually, this wasn't an excuse. It was because Xu Liao had truly encountered many problems. He had seen the ostentatious world in the Sixteenth Fiend Prison and had personally managed a street with a population of over a million in the Small Heavenly Courts. Many problems couldn't be solved with martial strength.
If his goal in life was to be a peerless expert, it wouldn't be a big deal even if he was a little vulgar and uncultured. However, if he still wanted to be a 'winner in life' and not a brainless' idiot 'who was often fooled by others, other than martial strength, he also needed to possess a certain level of intelligence.
No matter how powerful the demons' martial arts, immortal Dao, and Dharma spells were, they couldn't solve all problems. If powerful strength could solve everything, the ancient demon Heavenly Courts wouldn't have fallen. The ancient Heavenly Courts wouldn't have collapsed because of a traitor's rebellion. Many things in the world that should be taken for granted wouldn't have happened.
Although human schools weren't the most efficient shortcut, it was the most convenient path.
Xu Liao looked at the gates of Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school for a long time. He looked very serious. In the end, he suddenly smiled and muttered to himself, "I can't be an uncultured person. The accumulation of knowledge is a must. People who neglect their studies when they have money and power are very easy to be labeled with all kinds of negative labels. Most importantly, these people can't even tell when they're being scolded and still feel smug. I don't want to be such a person. "
Xu Liao had even thought about what he wanted to major in university after high school.
He needed to be able to easily manage over a million people, and even the knowledge to manage a sect. He also needed to have the experience to deal with complicated environments. He also needed to be able to deal with countless scheming old foxes with ease. He needed to be able to live a carefree life and not be as tired as a cow or a dog in long-distance planning. Thus, the thousands of years of human financial and management knowledge were what he needed.
It wasn't time to go to school now. It was almost noon, and the gates of the school were tightly shut.
Of course, Xu Liao had a way. He didn't use any unconventional methods. Instead, he obediently handed the admission letter to the gatekeeper and fabricated a not very lame reason: His grandmother was critically ill and wanted her only grandson to accompany her … He waited until his grandmother passed away before coming to school …
Xu Liao came from a single-parent family and had never seen his father's relatives before. Thus, he didn't feel any psychological pressure using this reason. The gatekeeper was so touched that his eyes brimmed with tears. Not only did he open the gates for him, but he also gave him directions to the administration office. He even reminded him that he could look for him if there was anything. His surname was Qin!
Xu Liao took the admission letter and went straight to the administration office. He still used this reason to trick the teacher in the administration office until his eyes brimmed with tears. Very quickly, he arranged classes and dormitories for him. Only then did Xu Liao know that Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school was actually a boarding school.
With his original academic results, he wouldn't have been able to get into this high school, so he didn't pay attention to the situation in this high school. The boarding system made things very difficult for him. It meant that he had no personal space at all.
This school was too far from the city, and it wasn't suitable for students to travel back and forth every day. That was why the school adopted the boarding system. It was also for the sake of the students. Bei Du Normal University's original location was in the city center. After the school expanded, it moved to a more remote plot of land outside the Fourth Ring Road. Although the new location was a little remote, the area of the school expanded by more than ten times. Not only did the university move over, the affiliated high school also moved along with it.
Xu Liao had no choice but to run around the school. He paid the school fees, got a half-student status, and collected all kinds of supplies. It wasn't until the afternoon that he officially became a student of this high school.
When he was led to the classroom by the homeroom teacher, he had a huge "dumbfounded" expression on his face. No matter how one looked at him, he looked like a child who came from a remote mountainous area to attend school. He didn't look like a local at all.
When the homeroom teacher introduced him, he also told the lie. This story had a very tear-jerking effect. Xu Liao could see the obvious tears in the eyes of a few female students. As for the male students, their expressions were more disapproving. It was clear that this story had an obvious target audience.
Xu Liao mumbled to himself, "From the feedback of the readers, I have the talent to write in the female genre, but I don't have a good grasp of the male readers' appetite!"
