Xiao Xi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, this expression caused the eyes of the surrounding men to spit fire.
"Men are so annoying. Miss, let's hurry."
Xiao Xi looked around in disgust and urged the young girl in front of her.
Mu Chan 'er nodded slightly. "I've already contacted the people from the Education Palace. They asked us to wait at the teahouse on the east side of the city gate. Someone will come to pick us up."
With that, she walked lightly toward the teahouse on the east side at a speed that seemed slow but was actually extremely fast.
Xiao Xi did not want to be left behind and also quickly walked into the teahouse.
When the crowd saw the two disappear from sight, their faces instantly revealed disappointed expressions. Their legs felt like lead as they reluctantly left. There were even some who followed the master and servant into the teahouse.
The small teahouse, which had been a little dismal before, was suddenly overcrowded.
Inside the teahouse, Mu Chan 'er and Xiao Xi each ordered a cup of tea and sat opposite each other. They did not look like master and servant, but more like sisters.
Xiaoxi sat on the chair with one hand propping up her chin. Her other hand was placed on the table. Her slender fingers were slowly making circles around the rim of the cup.
It was obvious that she was feeling a little bored. She then casually tossed out a question. "Miss, when are we going back?"
Mu Chan 'er suddenly put down the teacup that had been by her mouth. After a moment of silence, she asked softly, "Do you miss home?"
Xiao Xi shook her head repeatedly. "To Xiao Xi, being able to stay by your side is the same everywhere. It's just that … "
"Just what?"
Xiao Xi lowered her head and muttered without confidence, "It's not a solution for you to run away like this."
Although her voice was very soft, Mu Chan 'er still heard it.
Mu Chan 'er immediately turned her face away. A complicated light flashed across her eyes under the veil.
She did not answer Xiao Xi's question. Perhaps even she did not have the answer herself.
At this moment, a hurried figure suddenly appeared outside the door.
After Qin Yi entered the room, he quickly glanced around. Soon, he noticed that all the customers in the teahouse were looking in the same direction.
All of them had an infatuated look on their faces, and their gazes were somewhat dull.
Qin Yi frowned and followed everyone's gaze. He immediately saw Mu Chan 'er, who was covering her face with something.
"Why does this look look so familiar?"
Qin Yi's memory was amazing. Even though Mu Chan 'er's face was covered, he still felt a sense of déjà vu.
Although he couldn't be sure, he was certain of one thing at this moment. These two people were definitely the targets of this trip.
At that moment, he also strode forward and directly walked over.
"It must be … you two?"
Before Qin Yi could finish speaking, he saw Xiao Xi sitting opposite Mu Chan 'er. The identities of the two people were immediately revealed.
Some time ago, Bai Hua had told Qin Yi that a higher-level academy had sent someone to patrol the teahouse. At that time, he had suspected and even looked forward to meeting Mu Chan 'er and the others in the Yan Luo Region.
Who would have thought that his prediction would come true today?
One had to admit that fate was sometimes a magical thing.
When Xiao Xi saw the surprised look on Qin Yi's face, she frowned and a trace of anger appeared on her face. She said in a warning voice, "Who are you? Aren't you being rude by looking at us like this?"
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Qin Yi was used to disguising himself with the Thousand Trickery Talisman when he went out.
Faced with this unfamiliar face, it was normal that Xiao Xi didn't recognize him.
Even an ordinary girl would be a little angry to be stared at by strangers like this. Moreover, although Xiao Xi was only a servant girl, her identity was definitely not ordinary in this kind of place.
Qin Yi realized his rudeness and understood the reason for Xiao Xi's anger, so he quickly withdrew his gaze.
Just as he was about to explain, he suddenly heard a melodious voice beside him. "This is not a good place to talk. Let's go."
Although Xiao Xi didn't recognize Qin Yi, it didn't mean that Mu Chan 'er didn't notice.
Actually, when Qin Yi entered, she had already noticed Qin Yi. She had even seen through Qin Yi's disguise at the first moment.
It had to be said that Mu Chan 'er's intelligence was sometimes amazing.
She quickly understood that Qin Yi must have had his own difficulties in disguising himself. Moreover, she had long heard about the situation at the Yin-Yang Academy in the Cloud Sea Region.
There were too many people here, so it was better not to reveal some things.
Therefore, she proposed to leave without hesitation.
When Qin Yi heard this, his heart trembled, but he didn't say anything. He nodded and led Mu Chan 'er and Xiao Xi out of the teahouse.
"Eh?"
Xiao Xi, who was following behind, suddenly widened her eyes and asked in surprise, "Miss, why do I feel like your mood has improved?"
After following by Mu Chan 'er's side for so long, she naturally knew Mu Chan' er's habits and behavior like the back of her hand.
All the minute changes in Mu Chan 'er couldn't escape her observation.
She didn't think that Miss's mood would improve after seeing the academy's receptionist.
"Could it be that Miss has taken a fancy to this man?"
Xiao Xi used her imagination to its fullest and muttered with a laugh.
Mu Chan 'er stopped and turned her head, pretending to scold her angrily, "Shut up."
Xiao Xi stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say another word. She obediently followed behind Qin Yi and Mu Chan 'er, hurrying in the direction of the Yin-Yang Academy.
It had to be said that the Yin-Yang Academy was indeed quite far from the city gate they had entered from. The three of them didn't say a word along the way, but they all had different moods, so the journey seemed especially long.
After more than two hours, the three of them finally entered the academy.
Qin Yi was about to bring them to see the first elder when Mu Chan 'er's puzzled voice came from behind him.
"Why are you here?"
When Qin Yi heard this, he laughed loudly and removed his disguise, revealing his true appearance. "This matter is really a long story."
"It's you?"
After seeing Qin Yi's true appearance, the shock on Xiao Xi's face was as exaggerated as one could imagine. Her cherry lips were so wide that an egg could almost be stuffed inside.
After the shock, Xiao Xi narrowed her eyes and took a step forward suspiciously but warily, shielding Mu Chan 'er behind her.
"Tell me, did you already know that Miss and I would be coming here, so you waited here early?"
