Of course, that alone is far from enough.
Kaopu even mimicked the voice of a kitten, calling out to Xu Ling in a fawning tone, one call after another.
"Xu Ling~~"
"Lingling~~"
Even though the nauseatingly sweet words in her ears had given Xu Ling goosebumps, she remained unchanged.
It's not that she still harbors resentment towards Kaopu or is still angry with him, but rather that Xu Ling is still annoyed with herself.
"You don't have to do this!" she murmured softly, her head lowered. "You're already good enough as a person; it's my fault."
Although Xu Ling's voice wasn't loud, Kaopu could still hear it clearly.
It was stunned for a moment, and a feeling of emotion welled up in its eyes.
Hypocritical flattery aside, this was the first time it had heard such sincere words from Xu Ling, and they were even praising it!
So how could it be so cruel to Xu Ling?
Is it even human?!
Immediately, Xu Ling, who was reliable and clingy, became even closer to him.
It knew that Xu Ling liked the sound of kittens meowing, and it decided that from this moment on, it would use that sound!
"Lingling, I was wrong, please don't be angry!"
You're awesome!
"real!"
The sincerity in Kaopu's words was almost overflowing at this moment, almost drowning Xu Ling.
Perhaps because she never expected to hear such sincere and reliable words, Xu Ling's expression softened slightly.
Seeing this, Kaopu did not press on, but instead changed the subject.
If we really take this topic of who is right and who is wrong seriously, I don't know when it will end!
Instead of bringing up something else to distract her, Xu Ling might recover in a little while!
"Lingling, we can talk about the rest later. Right now, finding Ruth is the most important thing!"
These words were like a wake-up call, instantly snapping Xu Ling out of her self-pity.
yes!
The most important thing right now is Ruth. Why is she wasting her time on such a trivial matter?
He should at least wait until he finds Ruth before he can properly analyze himself!
Xu Ling finally raised her head, her eyes bright and determined.
"That's right, you're absolutely right! We should find Ruth first!"
"Yes! That's how it should be!"
Seeing that she had regained her energy, Kaopu immediately nodded vigorously in agreement.
"So, you don't know Iron Heart, then... do you know any other academies?"
Her piercing gaze immediately shot straight towards the reliable location, and even the darkness could not conceal the seriousness and focus on Xu Ling's face.
Kaopu was just trying to cheer Xu Ling up, but he didn't expect her to recover so quickly!
Of course, although it was it that started this topic, to be honest, it was trying to gather ideas from all sides. How did it end up being asked the question by only it?
It's frustrating to be reliable; it's like shooting yourself in the foot!
Just like when he said he didn't know where the Iron Heart was, the reliable guy said again—"I don't know!"
but!
Xu Ling had finally been appeased; if it said that, wouldn't...
The little cat suddenly shuddered. Well, it just so happens to know a location. It might as well try anything for now!
"Perfect! I actually know one!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he showed no sign of apprehension and immediately and without hesitation revealed the location of Phil Academy.
Fortunately, none of the people present had formal schooling. Even the most knowledgeable old John and his wife, due to their social status, had only heard of Phil College but had no idea where it was.
Coupled with his reliable and confident tone, no one doubted Phil Academy's position.
As the most capable and reliable adult among them, how could it lie or deceive people?
Not only Fei'er and the others thought so, but Xu Ling did too.
After all, in her mind, a reliable person either didn't know anything, or if they did know something, they would tell her the truth.
Therefore, without hesitation, Xu Ling believed what Kaopu said.
And so, everyone present readily believed the plausible nonsense.
With no one present to voice their doubts, Kaopu's slightly tense heart finally relaxed.
No one doubted it, and the reliable head raised itself, then with another light leap, it returned to the huge head of Fei Er.
It must be said that compared to Xu Ling's shoulders, Fei Er's head is flatter and her field of vision is wider.
Especially since the venom of the Fierce Snake was suppressed, its body has become exceptionally tall, and standing here, it suddenly has a feeling of ruling the world!
Not bad, not bad, very good!
Kaopu admired him greatly, then leisurely squatted down and sat down comfortably.
Although she knew where Phil Academy was, Xu Ling, whose furthest place to date was the Misty Forest, really didn't know how far Phil Academy was from here.
Therefore, Xu Ling looked up and asked Kaopu, puzzled, "Kaopu, is Phil Academy far from here?"
The reliable dog leisurely flicked its tail and answered matter-of-factly, "Of course it's far!"
It's more than just far!
It would take almost the entire Simon Empire, and then over mountains and valleys, to reach that so-called, possibly Phil Academy.
"Anyway, we can't get there on our own!" Kaopu said confidently.
Actually, you can get there by using its teleportation, but that would definitely cost a lot of points!
Let alone the fact that we don't have any points left, even if we did, we wouldn't be willing to squander them like this!
Moreover, this is the price of a "one-way ticket". Not to mention that there are so many of them, Xu Ling alone will have to come back after going there!
—Don't forget, her mission has only just begun to make progress!
Then... we shouldn't let her go?
A tentative but reliable suggestion: "Lingling, since it's so far away, why don't we send someone else to find Ruth?"
Xu Ling frowned unhappily. She wanted to find it herself, but there must be a reason why Kaopu said that.
Therefore, suppressing her displeasure, she earnestly asked, "Then who should we give it to?"
Who should we let?
This is indeed a difficult problem!
Kaopu lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.
The first person that flashed through its mind was Fei Er, the strongest among them, but it was immediately rejected by its own reliable self.
Fei'er's snake venom was only suppressed, not fully recovered. Putting everything else aside, if the snake venom were to erupt without warning, without the plant essence of the Tree of Life to suppress it, he wouldn't even know where he died!
No, Fei'er won't do!
That... Thanos?
When a second candidate emerged, Kaopu shook his head vigorously without hesitation.
Thanos is even worse!
It's still a cub!
No matter how much it exploits, it can't exploit the cubs!
Therefore, Thanos is out!
After calculating all that, only Mr. and Mrs. John are left...
