"...Yes, yes."
Pan Xiaoling finally gave in and weakly agreed.
Is now not the time to address each other by their official titles? You've got a real double standard, haven't you?
However, no matter what, she still respected her master very much, especially since she had followed him all the way from the Hualan Empire to the City of Night Sin, and now to the Federation... It wasn't that she had really become arrogant and rebellious, it was just that sometimes she couldn't stand seeing him lying down.
And thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Since his master wants to train him to be his successor, it is indeed better for him to do many things himself. In addition, he also has the help of his master's wife. So, it really doesn't matter whether Xu Shi goes to this kind of small meeting or not.
"Alright, I'll be going now."
Xu smiled and got up to go for a stroll at "Prism"—the project to remove "rust fog" has indeed made some breakthroughs. From the initial half hour, it can now take more than a month. Although the development is slow, it is stable.
"Keep it up, Assistant Pan!"
"……snort."
The silly apprentice snorted and ignored him, then tossed her skirt and walked away.

"Did you forget something... huh?"
Xu Shi didn't look up, and only realized something was wrong after casually replying.
The person who came was not Pan Ling.
It was Gu Yi.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing the other person's strange expression, he couldn't help but blurt out a question.
"nothing……"
Miss Black Rabbit shook her head. "I just discovered a few minor issues, regarding the establishment of a communication network within the city-states..."
"It seems... someone is trying to stop us."
