Chapter 43: Unt.i.tled
After returning home with the leave application, Yu Huang accompanied Yu Donghai for a warm dinner. After Yu Donghai finished washing the dishes, Yu Huang pa.s.sed the leave application to him.
Yu Donghai wiped his hands and took the leave application. When he saw that Yu Huang had applied for a year of leave from the school, he was momentarily stunned. “You took such a long leave. What are you going to do?”
Yu Huang was peeling an apple for Yu Donghai, and said without looking up, “In order to help me successfully condense the Psychic Pearl, Master decided to take me out for a period of time for training. I took a year off from school and will be back on time next year to take the entrance exams.”
Yu Donghai was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and he muttered. “Out of consideration that old fellow treats you quite well, I won’t charge him the interest for that 20,000.”
Yu Huang cut open the apple and handed a piece to Yu Donghai.
Yu Donghai took a bite of the apple and asked her, “Where are you planning to go?”
Yu Huang said, “Master said that there’s a canyon on the Blazing Realm Continent that’s suitable for Purifying Spirit Masters to cultivate in. He wants to bring me to enter seclusion for a period of time. When we get there, I might not have time to contact you. You have to take care of yourself.”
“Don’t worry. You don’t have to worry about me.”
Yu Donghai really thought that Yu Huang was going out with Lin Jiansheng to gain experience. He even happily helped Yu Huang pack her luggage.
At dawn, Yu Huang went out with her bag.
Yu Donghai sent her downstairs. Seeing that Lin Jiansheng did not send a car to pick her up, he was instantly dissatisfied. He complained again, “This old miser! He didn’t even send a car to pick you up. He must be unwilling to spend the oil money.”
Yu Huang was used to Yu Donghai dissing Lin Jiansheng for no reason. She patted Yu Donghai’s arm and said to him, “Father, you can go back. I’ll take my leave now. Master is still waiting for me in the Purifying Spirit Academy.”
Yu Donghai said, “I’ll watch you leave.”
“… Okay.”
Yu Huang carried a backpack and walked towards the alley alone. When she reached the alley, she turned around and looked at the door. She saw Yu Donghai standing in the distance with a walking stick while waving goodbye to her. She wiped her tears and muttered softly, “Wait for me to come back.”
When she returned, she’ll bring him back to the Yin Clan and take back what belonged to them!
…
Yu Huang walked out of the village and saw a black-robed man standing at the entrance of the village’s archway. He seemed to be waiting for someone.
Yu Huang walked to the signboard and sized him up from a distance. He was also looking at her with an equally unfathomable gaze.
Yu Huang could tell at a glance that this person was wearing a mask. The mask did not look impressive, but this person gave off an intimidating aura.
He was like a warrior!
Perhaps Yu Huang had been staring at him for too long, the man’s eyes revealed confusion and suspicion.
He came here to wait for a person called Night Owl.
More than a month ago, Night Owl had anonymously sold a hundred weapon designs to Mo Yuelou, the prince of the Divine Moon Empire.
After the prince received the design plan, he immediately instructed the weaponsmiths to work overtime to rush out the components on the design plan and successfully a.s.semble it.
After countless tests, he finally confirmed that the weapons sold to him were new and extremely lethal weapons! With these weapons, the overall military strength of the Divine Moon Empire would increase by a level.
Thus, the prince wanted to see Night Owl in person. Firstly, he wanted to thank him for his support of the Divine Moon Empire’s military, and secondly, he wanted to befriend him and cooperate with him again.
The prince was also curious as to what kind of person this amazing genius who could produce a hundred weapons designs in one go was.
Was it a man or a woman?
Was he a mysterious old man who lived in seclusion, or was he a respected professor?
The prince had revealed his wish to meet Night Owl many times, but was mercilessly rejected every time. It was only yesterday that Night Owl took the initiative to contact him and said that he wanted to buy a batch of convenient personal weapons and a latest storage device.
Mo Yuelou finally awaited the opportunity to meet, so he naturally agreed without hesitation.
Mo Yuelou arrived at the appointed place early today. He had been waiting under the signboard for a long time. During this time, no one pa.s.sed by except the sanitation workers and the women who sold vegetables.
This was until Yu Huang’s appearance broke the stalemate.
Mo Yuelou stared at the girl’s overly calm eyes, and a shocking and absurd thought suddenly appeared in his mind. This girl who looked like a high school student couldn’t be Night Owl, right?!
At that moment, Yu Huang walked towards him.
Standing in front of Mo Yuelou, Yu Huang raised her head and said to him, “Didn’t we agree to meet at 6: 40 PM? How long have you been here?”
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuelou’s eyes widened.
Night Owl?
How could Owl Country be a young lady?!
“You…” Mo Yuelou did not dare to voice his conjecture. They felt that this was too farfetched.
Yu Huang extended her right hand towards Mo Yuelou and calmly introduced herself. “h.e.l.lo, I’m Night Owl.”
Mo Yuelou had never suffered such a huge blow in his entire life.
“Are you really Night Owl?” It was not surprising that Mo Yuelou was suspicious.. He really could not believe that the designer who could design those terrifying weapons was a young lady.
