Chapter 184 You are not from here, right?
When Xia Yueke woke up and opened her eyes, Qi'an was still sitting there, but he seemed to be resting with his eyes closed.
Xia Yueke turned into a human form, stretched, and yawned, "Why don't you take a rest for a while, I'll watch over you, you slept so comfortably! I don't even know if it's day or night now."
Qi An saw Xia Yueke wake up and immediately stood up. "No need. I was just practicing my beast power and have rested well. Even if I don't sleep for a few days and nights, it's nothing to me."
Xia Yueke stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and then said, "Okay, okay, whatever you want! Let's go out now. I don't know how long it will take!"
Qi'an nodded softly and walked forward first.
Xia Yueke followed him silently and complained:
"You have a cold face every day, like an iceberg, ha..."
Qi'an suddenly stopped, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
Xia Yueke looked at Qi'an's strange expression, extremely confused. "What on earth do you want to say? Hurry up and say it! You're really keeping me in suspense!"
Qi An turned around, staring at Xia Yueke with sharp eyes, and said with thin lips, "You... are not from here! Right?"
Xia Yueke was stunned. No, what was this guy talking about? Was it what she understood?
Xia Yueke felt that even if that was what she meant, she absolutely could not admit it. Xia Yueke looked at Qi'an and said, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by not being from here? I don't understand."
"Reviewing the old to learn the new makes one a teacher. Learning without reflection is useless; thinking without learning is dangerous. Do you remember what you said last time? This comes from... Confucius..."
Qi'an frowned, as if recalling something.
Xia Yueke was dumbfounded. "You...you! How do you know this famous saying?"
"No, no."
Xia Yueke stepped back and shook her head, "It must have been that Saintess who taught you, right?"
Qi'an nodded, "It was taught by the Saint, but... she only said this to me, an orc!"
Xia Yueke's eyes widened in disbelief, "So based on this sentence, you guessed... I..."
Qi An sighed slightly. "At first, I was just skeptical. Your words and actions are very different from those of the people here. Your views and reactions to many things are very strange."
Xia Yueke laughed dryly. "That doesn't mean anything. Maybe I'm just a unique orc."
Qi'an shook his head. "When you said that famous quote, I became even more certain. Because that's what the Saint mentioned to me in private. She said it was a mysterious and distant knowledge inheritance. And you, an orc who shouldn't have known it, blurted it out."
Xia Yueke felt flustered, but still pretended to be calm.
"Maybe I heard it by chance and then remembered it."
Qi'an looked at her with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"You heard it by chance? Such words have never been circulated on this continent. Do you think I would believe them?"
Xia Yueke bit her lip, speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute.
Xia Yueke felt that she was too unlucky. Moreover, if Qi'an knew that she was not from this world, would he tell other orcs?
Fear overwhelmed her like a tide. She was afraid that once the secret got out, she would be doomed.
Although from her current perspective, the last person who came here was the Saint, who had a nice name, but she probably just changed her job to another place!
How difficult it would be to teach these orcs how to plant, write, and learn mathematics!
Although Xia Yueke also hopes that this continent will be well, that is only on the premise that she is willing and safe!
How about she kill Qi'an now while no one is around? That way no one will know about it, hahahaha.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she was shocked by herself.
She secretly looked at Qi'an and saw that he was just standing there quietly looking at her. Although there was inquiry in his eyes, there was no obvious malice. Only then did she calm down a little.
Forget it, forget it. I guess Qi An already knew about it and took her down before she even did anything.
But Xia Yueke still had evil intentions and always wanted to test whether Qi'an was really that powerful.
She slowly raised her hand, secretly gathering a weak power in her palm, thinking of taking advantage of Qi'an's unpreparedness to strike him. But just as she was about to strike, Qi'an's eyes suddenly became cold and sharp, like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, piercing straight at her.
"What do you want to do?" Qi'an's voice was low and majestic, with an unquestionable sense of oppression.
Xia Yueke's heart sank suddenly, and she felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen. Her hands froze awkwardly in mid-air, and she forced a smile on her face that was uglier than crying.
"Haha, no... nothing, I just want to stretch my arms. I just woke up and my arms are a little numb. Don't get me wrong."
Qi An narrowed his eyes slightly, obviously not believing her nonsense, "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise..."
Xia Yueke quickly waved her hands, "Really? I swear! How could I have any bad intentions towards you? Look at me, I'm so weak, how could I be your opponent? I was just acting stupidly."
As she spoke, she cautiously took a few steps back, trying to distance herself from Qi'an. Her eyes were filled with guilt and fear, as she was afraid that Qi'an would suddenly attack her.
"I...I really just overheard it, believe it or not. Even if I'm not from here, so what? I haven't done anything bad."
Xia Yueke's voice trembled slightly as she tried to show weakness in order to get Qi An to let her go.
Her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. She didn't dare to approach Qi'an easily, nor did she dare to turn around and run away rashly. She could only wait nervously for Qi'an's response.
"Um."
Qi'an responded and walked forward.
Xia Yueke was anxious, "What do you mean? You haven't finished speaking yet! Can you please not tell anyone?"
Qi An stopped and tilted his head slightly, his gaze lingering on Xia Yueke's face for a moment. "I'm still thinking. Although you're not from this world, you don't seem to have any ill intentions. I won't make a decision lightly."
Xia Yueke hurriedly ran to Qi'an, blocking his way, her eyes full of pleading.
"Qian, please. You don't know what will happen to me if this secret gets out. I have no one to rely on in this world. I came here by chance. I don't want to be treated as an alien and hurt."
Her eyes were red and she was close to tears.
In order to deceive Qi'an, she can only apologize to Wu Ya and Chu Qingchen first. In fact, they are really good to her.
Besides, she is not someone who has taken over someone else's body. She was really born from Wuya!
Qi An stared at her, frowning slightly, "When did you come here?"
Xia Yueke's voice immediately dropped. "I came here when I was born, when I was still a fox. As soon as I opened my eyes, I came here."
