Qin Xiao's expression was somewhat displeased. "You're not dead?"

Sensing the murderous intent in his words, Qin Wendao's eyes twitched slightly.

I subconsciously recalled this madman and the horrific scenes of him slaughtering the entire world.

I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Ahem, junior, that's not very meaningful. The reason I'm still standing here is because of the official review and trust in me. I'm really fine, you can believe me."

Qin Xiao remained noncommittal; he certainly knew what it meant for the other party to be able to appear here openly and legitimately.

"I don't trust others, I only trust my own eyes. You'd better pray you don't run into me outside."

Qin Wendao, as a veteran genius who had dominated the academy for two or three years, naturally had his own temper.

Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, his expression changed slightly.

"Hmph, so what if I've run into you? The outcome is still uncertain!"

Qin Xiao showed no anger; the other party's bluster was clearly masked by his cowardice.

"I hope you really have some tricks up your sleeve."

Qin Wendao turned his head away with a gloomy expression, while Qin Xiao smiled and stopped talking.

However, despite saying that, he really didn't know what the other party's situation was. He just judged based on what happened in the secret realm and subconsciously felt a bit disgusted.

As time went by, more and more school leaders, teachers, and people from all walks of life who were invited arrived.

Qin Xiao has certainly had his eyes opened today.

He never expected that there would be more than two hundred faculty and staff members in the college, and that he would hardly see a single one on weekdays, which was outrageous.

However, this may be related to the fact that he has been in the secret realm for a long time and has never spent credits to study.

To his surprise, the leadership team from the capital city also came today, including the commanders of the three armed forces, the ministers of the resource department, the beast taming department, and so on.

Although the political system in this world is not an absolute ruling body.

However, in a place like the capital, those who can openly govern and control the country are considered top-tier figures.

The mayor had a kind smile on his face and looked to be in his forties. He had a neat side-swept hairstyle and wore a distinctive colored jacket typical of the government system.

Following the mayor and others in was a girl with a cold expression and two eye-catching ice butterflies on her head.

The girl exchanged a few words with the mayor and then walked over to Qin Xiao's seat.

Before he even arrived, the girl's expression turned somewhat strange upon seeing Qin Xiao's odd look.

"What kind of look is that? What are you looking at!"

Mu Yueming sat down with a displeased expression.

Qin Xiao chuckled, "So you're from the family of the mayor of the capital city. You're truly of extraordinary status."

Mu Yueming rolled her eyes, her icy expression becoming much more lively.

She has rarely appeared in public in recent years, having been raised and nurtured in the family's secret environment.

Moreover, the outside world has always had a distant and cold impression of her, after all, no one dares to speak ill of her behind her back because of her status.

Sitting with Qin Xiao at this moment, speaking these words with such vivid expressions on his face, he astonished those who were paying attention.

Among the mayor's entourage, the Minister of Resources, who was standing next to the mayor and was his absolute confidant, gaped wide-eyed.

"Mayor Mu, your cousin can actually laugh!!"

Mayor Mu, who is usually kind and good-tempered, actually shook his head from side to side, saying, "Not at all, not at all?"

"Look, at the banquet, your cousin's icy face melted after that kid said a few words."

Hiss~

Mayor Mu was greatly surprised. What exactly was the relationship between this young man and his cousin?

No, no, I have to gather information about this kid immediately and report it to my aunt!

Mayor Mu's thoughts were not mentioned.

Qin Xiao chatted with Mu Yueming for a bit, and saw that he still had a gossipy expression.

Mu Yueming looked helpless. "Mu Yuefeng and I are indeed relatives. He's my cousin."

"Huh?!" Qin Xiao was shocked and even subconsciously moved away.

"Why are you yelling like that!"

Mu Yueming's eyes widened, she couldn't take it anymore. She didn't know why, but being with Qin Xiao always made her emotions get stirred.

Seeing Qin Xiao's strange and shocked expression, it was easy to guess what he was thinking.

"I...I'm of the same generation as him, no, I'm just of a higher generation, but much younger than him!"

Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow and instantly realized that the deity of Huawu Kingdom had just been captured.

Whose general is so brave?

Wait a minute, why does Mu Yueming still have the surname Mu? Shouldn't he take his father's surname?

However, Qin Xiao wisely refrained from asking these questions, regardless of whether Mu Yueming would answer them.

Unless he's incredibly bold, he'd better avoid inquiring about matters concerning gods.

"Ahem, I understand, I understand..."

Qin Xiao said awkwardly. Mu Yueming looked at him, wondering what he understood.

However, Mu Yueming did not want to dwell on this matter any longer.

After all, this involves some private matters of the Mu family.

"Mu, it's been a long time."

At this moment, seeing Qin Xiao and Mu Yueming chatting enthusiastically, Qin Wendao came over.

Strangely, although Mu Yueming had previously threatened to kill Qin Wendao in the secret realm, he didn't seem to have much of a reaction now.

She simply nodded indifferently, then coldly ignored him.

Qin Wendao was turned away, but he didn't take it to heart; Mu Yueming always had this attitude.

Most people would completely ignore such a person, who would be extremely arrogant and cold.

Qin Xiao was a little puzzled and whispered, "Didn't you want to kill him before? Why are you not making any moves now?"

Qin Xiao spoke very close to her, and Mu Yueming subconsciously flinched slightly, but she didn't feel much aversion.

She was also a little confused. This bastard had beaten her so badly that she was on the verge of death. No one had ever dared to treat her like this before.

Do I really have some kind of psychological problem?

Thinking of this, Mu Yueming felt a little embarrassed.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm asking you a question."

Mu Yueming snapped out of her daze. "Wh...what?"

"I'm asking you, why did your attitude change so quickly? Weren't you just calling for Qin Wendao's death? Is he really alright?"

Mu Yueming calmed herself down.

“He…he has people backing him up, and we’ve checked, he’s definitely not a member of a cult.”

Qin Xiao frowned, "Your mother... can't even handle this? His behavior in the secret realm was clearly problematic; at least the Pale Church seems to value him highly."

Mu Yueming shook his head. "The Pale Church matter was a misunderstanding, it was just because of the other party's certain talent ability."

So they unilaterally concluded that he was the shell of the Pale Lady, and besides, my mother doesn't just do whatever she wants.

Qin Xiao's eyes widened. "Damn it! Even God can't stop me from eating beef?"

Is it really that bad?

Mu Yueming was incredibly intelligent, and Qin Xiao's reaction was beyond her expectations.

Mu Yueming sighed softly, "You don't actually think that my mother is the only...god in Huawu Kingdom, do you?"

Qin Xiao was stunned. Although he had expected it, there really wasn't just one... a god?!
