Chapter 923 My motorcycle is broken, I need to fix it.
Although she didn't know what kind of cookies they were, Yu Xunge didn't really care.
As she said, she didn't care about justice or the law.
So she readily accepted Maple Syrup's invitation to team up.
Moreover, Maple Syrup brought three teammates with her—Pine Rose, Moji, and Bo Mang.
Maple Syrup acted as the middleman, confirming that both sides were satisfied with their teammates, and that's how the team spots for this year's competition were decided.
[Searching for a Song]: You don't mind that I disappeared for 3 years?
[Maple Syrup]: Even if you disappeared for 3 years, you're still better than a nobody.
[Seeking Songs]: I have high hopes for our team! They all have excellent taste!
She closed the chat window and announced the good news that the team competition issue had been resolved.
Tianhu Haoqi took out a new set of Moonlight Wetland school uniforms: "Hurry up and get them ready."
Zhu Ri tossed over a slender dagger: "It comes with a very small space of its own."
Yu Xunge caught the dagger with delight and found the space inside a gem on the hilt.
The space contained a pile of snow as tall as a person, hundreds of withered leaves, and a large stack of pumpkins.
The withered leaves were neatly stacked from small to large. There were dozens of varieties of pumpkins, and Yu Xunge was most familiar with the various pumpkins from Astrana. These pumpkins were clearly not available in the same city.
Were these collected during the year when I was searching for her day by day?
Yu Xunge lowered her head and tucked the dagger into her tactical belt. After hesitating for a long time, she looked up again, her eyes red, and solemnly said to Zhu Ri:
"Although I don't know why you're acting so strangely, as if I'd find a lot of teachers, I can promise that I will never find any other teachers in the future. You are the best."
Zhu Ri looked away guiltily. Tian Hu Hao Qi said calmly, "I collected everything in the dagger. Your teacher just kept urging me to hurry up and kept twisting the motorcycle throttle."
“…” Yu Xunge sniffed and said coldly, “Pretend I didn’t say anything just now.”
Zhu Ri: "..." The change of expression is too fast.
...
The Twilight Library is located deep in the desert and belongs to a city called Endless Sand Sea.
Just like its name suggests, this magic school is a huge library. It looks like a giant ship stuck at an angle in the sand, with 99 floors high and an area that occupies almost a quarter of the endless sea of sand.
It is said that half of the space is inhabited by all kinds of animals from Astrana, with 2 to 4 of each kind; a quarter of the space is used to store various books and civilizations; and the last quarter is where apprentices and teachers live and study.
It's like a giant Noah's Ark.
Their destination was the top floor of the Twilight Library, where a huge white canvas floated on the bow of the ship—the playground prepared by the Twilight Library for the gods' games.
In the air above the Twilight Library, a huge sand circle resembling a sand tornado had gathered around a white canvas, with seats densely packed inside—the audience seating for this year's God Games.
When the group arrived, the audience seats were already more than half full, and many magic academy students were already in the game waiting area.
Starry Dragon stopped at the edge of the arena, while Wailing and Heavenly Power Seven stared at Chasing the Sun.
A wail: "We are the dragons heading to the stands of Tenhu Haoqi."
Tianhu Haoqi: "Yeah, the audience has to go that way."
After silently gathering his strength for a long time, he said to his apprentice, "If you don't get a Heavenly Hand of Seven this year, I'll hang you on the chimney!"
After saying that, she jumped off the Starry Sky Dragon. The elf fell downwards, and her black cloak was pulled into a waterfall in the air.
Watching Zhu Ri's retreating figure as he went to find a seat, Yu Xunge finally asked the question that had been lingering in her mind for almost a year: "What price did you pay to find me?"
Tianhu Haoqi patted his apprentice's head and said softly, "I only gave up my time. The one who really paid the price was Zhu Ri. She gave up her soul fire in exchange for that small boat that can sail in the river of time."
There was no surprise in Yu Xunge's eyes; she had actually already guessed it, because she had touched the dark pattern of the Moon Crown on the hull of the boat. She asked in a hoarse voice, "Can't we take that small boat with us?"
Tianhu Haoqi said, "No, it will remain in the river of time forever, just like those unclaimed boats we see, becoming part of the scenery of the river of time."
Just as he was about to be kicked off the Starry Sky Dragon, Yu Xunge cried out to the wailing man, "How many gold coins do you need to pay before you can use [Lucky Number] on me even once?"
Wailing didn't answer her question, but instead patted Yu Xunge three times, adding three more "lucky numbers" to the latter's shopping cart.
Then the dwarf said, "If you don't get the Heavenly Hand Seven this year, I'll hang you on the chimney."
After saying that, she pushed the apprentice off the Starry Sky Dragon.
Tianhu Haoqi also flew down, landing with his apprentice in the Moonlight Wetlands camp.
Fogblade, Fat Goose, and Motorbike, who had been tilting their heads back ever since they saw the Starry Sky Dragon, rushed over immediately. Fogblade's five tails swayed wildly as she bent down and hugged her long-lost friend tightly.
Fat Goose excitedly patted Xun Ge on the shoulder: "You're really back!"
The motorcycle looks much more upscale and luxurious than before, resembling a modified motorcycle.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Yu Xunge noticed the two classmates who had been staring at them nervously, and she took the initiative to say, "I already have a team."
Mistblade: "Maple syrup?"
Yu Xunge had already spotted Maple Syrup and Pine Rose standing together. She wasn't surprised by Mist Blade's keen observation. She said, "Yes, there's also Pine Rose, Moji, and Bo Mang."
Her answer relieved the rest of the group, including Mistblade.
Clearly, the return of their friend had put them in a difficult position, but they couldn't abandon their teammates with whom they had worked for two years.
Yu Xunge knew that her presence made the two apprentices of the Mist Blade Squad uneasy.
Just as she knew that the noise in the audience was about her.
Despite disappearing for three years, she remains the only apprentice in over forty years to successfully unlock the Heavenly Hand Seven-in-a-Row game.
The apprentices were nervous about her return, and the audience was filled with anticipation.
She looked up at Hu Haoqi and smiled, the meaning in her eyes was so clear.
See, I told you I was qualified to scout and select my teammates.
Tianhu Haoqi understood the meaning in her eyes, and she couldn't help but pat the apprentice on the back of the head, just like Zhu Ri did.
Before heading to the audience seats of Tianhu Haoqi, her last words to her apprentice were:
“Although I collected all those things, the person who drives the motorcycle is Zhu Ri. Can you imagine her driving along and suddenly stopping in front of the pumpkin stand, telling me that the motorcycle is broken and she needs to fix it?”
