The female lead of this novel is a quirky and hilarious character (dear readers, feel free to dive in!).
Mu Huan is a complete face-con. The first time she saw Liang Ci, she immediately fixat...
Early the next morning, Mu Huan left the yard and headed towards the training tower.
"Mu Huan!"
It was Tan Tai Luo's voice. Mu Huan turned around and saw Tan Tai Luo, Mu Qing, Muchen and Qi Chu walking towards him.
"You are also going to the training tower, right?" Tan Tai Luo spoke, looking in the direction where Mu Huan was walking.
"Yes! How about, together?" Mu Huan was also polite and asked tentatively.
"Okay!" Tan Tailuo's face was full of smiles. For some reason, Mu Huan felt that Tan Tailuo had a great interest in her from the first moment she saw her.
Mu Huan looked at Tan Tai Luo and smiled awkwardly. "Oh my god, a woman is interested in me," Mu Huan thought to himself. Clearly, Mu Huan has a very rich imagination. Tan Tai Luo didn't have that idea at all.
"Let's go." Tan Tailuo walked forward and took Mu Huan's arm, leaving Mu Qing and the others stunned. When did their relationship become so close? But there was nothing they could do, so they could only resign themselves to following behind them.
"Huanhuan, can I call you that?" Tan Tailuo looked at Mu Huan sincerely. In fact, people who knew Mu Huan knew that although she seemed optimistic and humorous on the surface, she was actually the most difficult to approach.
"Sometimes you still have to change! Because there will never be anyone in this world who will treat you unconditionally like your parents did. Once you leave home, you have to learn to distinguish good people and make worthy friends. In this world, you have to leave a way out for yourself!"
Mu Huan thought of his mother's instructions. Although he didn't understand what his mother meant by the last sentence, his mother was right. He should change himself slowly. He had to learn to be sociable, right?
"Friends, that's not bad! It's up to you." Mu Huan agreed happily. There was no reason to refuse. The name was just a code name.
She didn't know what Tan Tai Luo was thinking, but at least she had never felt that she had any intentions or bad thoughts towards her from the beginning until now.
The group soon arrived at the base of the training tower. An ancient aura washed over them. The nearly ten-story training tower was solemn and awe-inspiring. Stone sculptures of the ancient mythical beasts, the Qilin and the Phoenix, flanked the entrance, further accentuating the tower's majesty.
There were a lot of people queuing in front of the training tower, and they entered in a very orderly manner.
"I heard that this tower is guarded by three elders: the fourth elder Mo Yun, the fifth elder Yu Ze, and the sixth elder Feng Li. So, no one dares to act rashly or cause trouble here." Mu Qing stood with his hands behind his back, having done his homework on Youshan Academy.
Mu Huan couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. It just so happened that he didn't know anything. Even the training tower was something he asked his master last night. Thinking of last night, Mu Huan...
"It is said that there are real-life battles in the training tower, but I don't know whether it is true or not." Mu Chen's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Qi Chu looked at Mu Chen and shook his head worriedly, "Achen, your temper is getting worse and worse. You should try to control it." Although they were not from the same country, they had known each other for a long time, and their friendship was deeply rooted.
Mu Chen's eyes were filled with hostility, the result of years of fighting. Mu Huan glanced at him. Although she didn't know what was going on, she wanted to take this step and make friends with these people.
He pulled out a medicine bottle from his pocket and handed it to Mu Chen. "This can help suppress your anger."
Mu Huan recalled that he had stolen this from his father's storeroom. Ugh, ugh, ugh, he had taken it openly. He hadn't expected to use it so soon. His father had quite a lot of good things, but he was just too stingy on weekdays!
Mu Chen stared at the medicine bottle in his hand. Without even looking, the scent told him what it was. He had taken the same medicine before, but he had used it up on the way to Youshan Academy. Furthermore, this medicine was extremely precious and difficult for ordinary people to obtain!
"Are you really just an ordinary person?" Mu Chen looked at Mu Huan and asked his doubts.
"I'm not ordinary!" Mu Huan said in a riddle, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let me introduce myself formally! But it doesn't make sense, my last name shouldn't be that unknown."
Mu Huan seemed to suddenly remember something. Did her father lie to her? In fact, her family was not one of the four great families. Otherwise, how could they not know?
"Are you really from the Mu family, the number one family in Cang Xiu country?" Mu Qing had actually guessed it, but he was confused because he had never heard that the Mu family had such a daughter!
"Isn't it similar?!" Mu Huan glanced at himself, then raised his head and stared at Mu Qing and the others with his big eyes.
"Maybe it's just a little hard to believe, because we have never heard that the Mu family has a daughter." Mu Qing was also embarrassed, because the source of the information was too narrow.
"My dad is so cruel. He didn't even tell anyone about me, such a well-behaved, sensible, gentle, kind, generous and lovely girl." Mu Huan was so angry that he almost died. His heart ached!!!
Mu Qing and the others were so shocked that they were speechless. They didn't expect that the man who was so domineering in the battle on the stage yesterday, and who made Zhan Ling'er speechless when he got off the stage, was actually so childish in private!
As if Tan Tailuo had known this for a long time, he took Mu Huan's hand again and said, "Let's hurry up and line up. I heard that the training tower has a limit on the number of people who can enter each day!"
"There's such a broken rule?" Mu Huan was speechless. The broken rules set by Youshan Academy were really hard to describe! However, it seemed that they attached too much importance to this training tower. Could there be something else hidden inside? Or something important hidden...
He was distracted for only a moment, but recovered immediately. He walked towards the entrance of the training tower. "This line is too long!"
"We probably won't be able to get in today," Mu Qing speculated, and that was indeed the case, as the steward came out. An old man dressed in purple robes, with a rather sage-like demeanor, emerged from the entrance.
"This person should be the fourth elder Mo Yun." Because Mu Huan and others didn't know, only Mu Qing knew, so this important task of answering questions was given to him.
"How do you know this? You haven't even seen him."
Mu Qing resigned himself to his fate and explained in detail, sighing that he hadn't bothered to learn more earlier. Now he's become a semi-teacher. "Rumor has it that Fourth Elder Mo Yun loves the color purple, and of the seven elders, he has the most amiable appearance."
"Most amiable?" The word reminded Mu Huan of Guiqi, that rather amusing old alchemist. Wasn't he also quite amiable? Could it be that appearances don't always tell the whole story?
"That's right! They say Elder Mo Yun never gets angry and always has a smile on his face, no matter how much you do to him. That's why many students like him very much and enjoy discussing the Dao with him."
Isn't this just a smiling tiger? Mu Huan secretly complained in his heart, and of course he dared to say in his heart, "Dog's life is important, dog's life is important!"
