Xiao Baishu was an extremely skilled martial arts master; if he wanted to leave without being discovered, it would be an easy thing for him.
Feng Guang felt even more embarrassed. She jumped off the rock and said stiffly, "But, it was Alliance Leader Qi's intention to have someone protect you..."
“Miss Xia, there’s no need to feel bad.” Xiao Baishu smiled confidently. “I’ve been in the martial world for so many years. I’m not sure I’ve made a name for myself, but I’ve made quite a few enemies by punishing evil and upholding justice. I’ve seen all kinds of sneak attacks. Besides, although the guards of the Hidden Army are quite skilled, they are still not as good as me. I’m afraid that if we really encounter danger, I will have to protect them instead.”
Feng Guang gave a stiff laugh. Although she knew Xiao Baishu was indeed very capable, his confident tone gave her a strange feeling that he was making a bold claim...
But Xiao Baishu was indeed a formidable character. At least Feng Guang felt she couldn't beat him, so she couldn't say much and could only put on a stiff smile.
"Miss Xia, what are you doing here so late?"
"I..." Feng Guang was momentarily speechless, but quickly, she pointed to the sky and said, "I've come to admire the moon!"
Fortunately, fate was kind to her, and she didn't suddenly face a crisis.
But Xiao Baishu also had a question: "Why come to such a secluded corner to admire the moon?"
The place is overgrown with weeds, and it's clear that few people pass by. Even Xiao Baishu only happened to pass by here by chance, but he never expected to encounter a young lady who wanted to... climb over the wall.
Feng Guang looked at the sky, then at the ground, and finally gave a dry laugh. "It's only because the place is remote and the night is dark and windy that no one bothers us, so we can enjoy the moon."
This is utter nonsense.
"I see." Xiao Baishu nodded, but of course he didn't believe it. He knew that this Miss Xia had a bad temper, and if he pressed her further, she might lose her temper. Even though he thought she was planning to climb over the wall and leave, "Then Miss Xia can continue to enjoy the moon here. I'll take my leave now."
"Hey, wait a minute!" Feng Guang hurriedly stopped him. "Master Xiao...did you also attend that conference today?"
Her eyes held an undisguised curiosity.
Xiao Baishu nodded. "I did attend today's conference. Is there something you need, Miss Xia?"
"I just wanted to ask..." Feng Guang chuckled, "What did you talk about at your conference?"
Xiao Baishu could tell that the little girl was curious. Although it was easy to soften one's heart to see a little girl looking at him so eagerly, Xiao Baishu remembered the rules of the Hidden Military Bureau and would never allow this young lady to get involved in the martial world. So he said, "Miss Xia, if you want to know, why don't you ask your senior brothers?"
“My senior brothers…” Feng Guang paused, then said with a bright smile, “They have their own things to do, so I won’t bother them. Since I’ve run into you here, it’s the same if you tell me.”
“But Miss Xia, since your father is unwilling to tell you, why should I tell you?” Xiao Baishu politely rejected Feng Guang’s curiosity.
Feng Guang, however, was not giving up. She continued, "I guess... you're talking about the war between the righteous and the underworld, right?"
