The surrounding air seemed to be compressed, and the two silently confronted each other, with a murderous aura spreading rapidly and silently.

The bright sunshine outside suddenly turned gloomy, with large swaths of dark clouds looming overhead. A fierce wind raged, causing people and horses to stumble and fall, and the thunder seemed to be bombarding them from above.

Jiu Yan frowned almost imperceptibly. He actually felt the rejection of the Heavenly Dao. Who was this person?

Who do you think you are?

As Mingyue finished speaking, he clearly felt a tremendous repulsion. For every second he stayed, his body was compressed by the pressure of the Heavenly Dao for another second.

It's like someone using a hydraulic press to continuously compress his body until it can't take it anymore and explodes.

Jiu Yan took a deep look at the bright moon, then vanished from this world.

778 was trembling with fear. Good heavens, who exactly is this adult—no, who is the host's father?!

[Dad? Are you alright?]

The little one was so scared he wanted to kneel down and call for his father!

It seems to be tied to some incredibly powerful figure!

Mingyue sat back down in her chair, the smile on her lips still lingering, gentle and harmless. "Of course, 778, do you know about these systems?"

[Not much is known, but the Time and Space Bureau is indeed dealing with these rogue systems.]

What could a cripple like it possibly know?!

"Okay, go play."

778 let out a soft whimper, [Thank you, host daddy!]

Mingyue hummed in agreement, resting her forehead on one hand as she thought about the system and what 778 had mentioned about adults.

Is there any connection between these two?

Mingyue calmed her mind and focused on the vast starry sky in her divine sea. She used her divine sense to condense an arm and touched the stars, but they automatically avoided her.

A strange sense of irritation welled up inside Mingyue, and she stepped back. Looking up, she saw He Caisheng carrying paper and pen, leading He Ruyi in. Her little face was full of anxiety. "Mr. Mingyue, could you please watch my little sister? I need to deliver a raincoat to my older sister."

Ever since Mingyue started teaching him to read, he has treated Mingyue with the same respect as a teacher, and his fear of Mingyue's status has lessened.

"It won't rain outside, it'll be fine in a bit."

Just as Zheng Yue had said, the sky, which had been covered in dark clouds, gradually revealed the sun, as if the dark clouds had been an illusion.

He Caisheng scratched his head, wondering why the weather was so strange, changing so suddenly.

"No need to call me sir. I'll only be teaching you for a few days. I'll hire a tutor for you in a few days."

He Caisheng replied earnestly, "Mr. Mingyue taught me for a day, and for that day he is my teacher. I cannot disregard the proper etiquette."

"what ever."

Mingyue lazily finished the last pastry on her plate.

Seeing this, He Caisheng ran to the kitchen and brought in another plate of wontons. "My eldest sister said that after you finish your snacks, you can have some wontons to tide you over."

Mingyue took the bowl, still warm to the touch, and said with a smile, "No problem, no problem. You have a good understanding. I'll write down the rest of the Thousand Character Classic from memory and see when you've mastered it."

"Thank you, sir."

He Caisheng stared intently at Mingyue as he began to write, while He Ruyi squatted to the side, watching eagerly.

She's so slow! Her brother can already recite the first paragraph, but she's only just gotten used to it. She needs to read more and learn more characters so she can help her older sister and brother in the future!

The two children were so engrossed in learning that He Caisheng was also reinforcing his own learning while teaching He Ruyi. He only explained the meaning of the passage after He Ruyi could read it fluently.
