Chapter 99: Sheng Xiao: Were you teasing me just now?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It had been more than half a year since Mo Yuelou met Yu Huang. This was the first time he had seen Professor Night Owl bow to him. This was a rare opportunity, and he had to remember this feeling carefully.

Seeing Yu Huang’s actions, Vivian and the others followed suit and bowed. “Greetings, Your Highness!”

“Greetings, Your Highness!”

…

“Greetings.” Mo Yuelou also bowed to them before turning to ask the officer behind him, “What are they doing here?”

The officer replied, “They want to visit the injured, but they are ordinary citizens.”

Mo Yuelou looked back at Yu Huang and asked her, “Is your friend inside?”

Yu Huang told him, “The girl who fought Xuanyuan Sisi at Arena No. 8 was our friend. Her name was Anna Tao. We came from afar from the Prosperous Capital to cheer her on. Anna is badly injured. We want to see her.”

How could Mo Yuelou reject Professor Night Owl’s request to visit her friend? He nodded and said to the officer behind him, “Let them in.”

Since the prince had spoken, the officer naturally couldn’t stop Yu Huang and the others.

“You guys can go in!” Afraid that they would not understand the rules, the officer reminded them again, “Don’t make any noise after you go in. Don’t disturb the injured person’s rest.”

“Thank you, Sir.”

After Mo Yuelou entered the building, Jiang Shangfeng and the others followed behind. Vivian admired Yu Huang’s courage. She said, “When I saw His Highness, I was so excited that my legs went weak. Yu Huang, you actually dared to speak to His Highness.”

In her previous life, Yu Huang had been the ultimate monitor of the base and was used to seeing death and bloodshed. Therefore, when facing Mo Yuelou, Yu Huang did not show any signs of weakness. Instead, she had the feeling that she had met someone of the same kind.

Yu Huang said, “His Highness is also a person. He kills ruthlessly against enemies, not his subjects.”

In front, Mo Yuelou heard Yu Huang’s comment about him. His eyes warmed slightly. “Wait here for now. Someone will inform you to go up and visit your friends later.”

“Okay.”

Mo Yuelou went up to the second floor alone. Yu Huang and the others quietly stood in the hall on the first floor and waited for the summons.

In the treatment room on the second floor, Jiang Ruixue’s treatment of Anna Tao had come to an end. As the treatment progressed, Anna Tao’s face became more and more flushed, while Jiang Ruixue’s face was a little pale.

At a certain moment, Jiang Ruixue’s body swayed slightly while the spirit energy in her body was exhausted. The piece of meat automatically returned to Jiang Ruixue’s body. Jiang Ruixue couldn’t hold on anymore and her body swayed.

Mo Yuelou saw it and hurriedly rushed over to hug Jiang Ruixue.

Falling into a broad and familiar embrace, Jiang Ruixue looked up and smiled weakly at Mo Yuelou. “I’m fine, don’t worry.” She stared at the weak little girl on the bed and sighed. “This child is too seriously injured. I used all my spiritual power to save her. If she didn’t meet me, she would have died.”

Mo Yuelou knew the real reason for Anna Tao’s injury, and his expression was ugly.

This incident was a wake-up call.

These young Beast Tamers were tightly tied to the Divine Moon Empire. Only when they thrived could the Divine Moon Empire become stronger. However, the Xuanyuan Clan had bribed the organizer to secretly operate for their own benefit. This was a huge taboo!

The six great clans had been in the limelight for too long. They were beginning to grow out of hand.

Jiang Ruixue was exhausted. She believed that her two sons could work together to govern the Divine Moon Empire. There were some things that she did not need to say anymore. “I’m tired. Help me back to my room to rest for a while.”

“Okay, Mother.”

Mo Yuelou personally escorted Jiang Ruixue to her room to rest before asking the officer to let Yu Huang and the others go upstairs.

In the treatment room, Anna Tao had regained consciousness. She was lying on the bed alone with her eyes open and staring at the ceiling. She looked like a rag doll that had been barely mended with needles and thread.

“Anna!” Yu Huang and the others filed in. The quiet treatment room was immediately filled with liveliness.

Anna Tao suddenly burst into tears when she saw her familiar friend. “Mmm…” Anna Tao, not wanting Yu Huang and the others to see her tears, s.h.i.+elded her eyes with her sleeve.

That would make her appear useless.

Seeing that Anna Tao was so sad, Yu Huang also felt sad. “Alright, you did well today. It’s not embarra.s.sing at all!”

Everyone surrounded the bed. One moment, they were grabbing Anna Tao’s hand, the next moment, they were tugging at her clothes and hair. They were even telling her jokes.

Anna Tao laughed at their antics and lowered her arm. Her eyes were red but adorable.

“I’m sorry. I… I embarra.s.sed you guys!” After changing schools, in order not to be mocked, Anna Tao had already tried her best to correct her habit of stammering.

But when she saw her good friends from Cla.s.s 7, Anna Tao relaxed, and all her true emotions were revealed.

“What are you saying?!” Jiang Shangfeng glared at Anna Tao and consoled her. “You’re already very impressive. You don’t know how many people are touched by your courage today. Even if you lose today, you’re still the hero of Cla.s.s 7.”

Anna Tao felt even more useless.

After Anna Tao calmed down, Yu Huang asked her, “You’re so injured now. Can you still partic.i.p.ate in the qualifying compet.i.tion this year?”

Anna Tao shook her head and said, “When I recover, the screening test will probably be over. Besides, my strength is obvious. Even if I fight someone at my peak, I might not be able to enter the top 280.”

Vivian said, “What about next year? Can you do it next year?”

Anna Tao still shook her head.

“Why?”

Yu Huang told Vivian, “Beast Tamers who have partic.i.p.ated in the first year’s Beast Tamer Selection Compet.i.tion can only partic.i.p.ate again three years later as subst.i.tute students.”

Hearing this, Vivian was immediately enraged. She said angrily, “What?! It was clearly the organizers who secretly arranged for Anna and that girl called Xuanyuan Sisi to be in the same group. If it were someone else of similar strength, Anna might have advanced!”

“Why does Anna have to take the blame for the organizers?!”

Just as Vivian finished speaking, she heard a response from outside the door. The person said, “You’re right.”

Everyone looked up at the ward door in surprise.

Sheng Xiao walked into the treatment room calmly. When he saw the masked girl standing by the bed, a strange emotion flashed across his eyes.

Yu Huang?

Was this also his illusion?

Sheng Xiao suddenly walked toward Yu Huang. He walked closer and made a very offensive gesture. He raised his right hand and pressed it on Yu Huang’s mask.

Yu Huang was confused. Vivian and the others looked at Sheng Xiao strangely.

The mask felt so real. Only then did Sheng Xiao dare to confirm that Yu Huang was real. Then, was Yu Huang the one who teased him with a blade of gra.s.s in the audience?

Sheng Xiao retracted his hand and took a step back. He suddenly gave Yu Huang a solemn grateful bow. “Sheng Xiao, on behalf of my sister, Sheng Yang, thank you for saving her!”

Yu Huang had mixed feelings.

She thought to herself: If you knew that it was all a show directed and acted out by me, you would definitely think that I was despicable and sly.

Yu Huang felt guilty and rubbed her nose before saying, “She’s fine, and I’m fine in the end. That’s all that matters. Supreme Master Sheng, you don’t have to be so serious. I can’t accept it.”

Sheng Xiao raised his head and looked at her deeply. “It’s good that you’re alive.”

Yu Huang thought about Anna Tao’s situation and suddenly changed the topic. “Supreme Master Sheng, if you want to thank me, just verbal grat.i.tude is not enough.”

Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, “If you have any requests, just ask. I will do my best.”

Yu Huang pointed at Anna Tao, who was on the bed, and said, “The organizer colluded with the Xuanyuan Clan and secretly caused my friend to be seriously injured. This is unfair to her. I hope the organizer can give her another chance and allow her to partic.i.p.ate in the Beast Tamer Selection next year!”

Yu Huang could have used this opportunity to ask Sheng Xiao for something else, but she used it on Anna Tao.

Anna Tao was very touched. She secretly started to regard Yu Huang as her most important friend.

Sheng Xiao did not agree immediately after hearing Yu Huang’s request. He stared at Anna Tao for a moment before saying, “It’s against the rules to let her partic.i.p.ate in the Beast Tamer Selection next year.”

Yu Huang’s gaze instantly became dejected when she heard this, and Anna Tao bit her lip.

Sheng Xiao continued, “However, I can allow her to partic.i.p.ate in the global finals next month as a subst.i.tute student. If she can enter the top two thousand in the finals, she still has a chance to be accepted by a high school.”

Yu Huang smiled and grabbed Sheng Xiao’s hand. She could not hide her excitement. “Thank you, Brother Xiao!”

Sheng Xiao felt his hands burning.

Anna Tao and the others looked at Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao’s hands in disbelief.

Yu Huang squeezed Sheng Xiao’s hand and let go of him.

Sheng Xiao blushed. He said, “Anna, rest well. Try to stand out in the finals!” Then, he turned around and left.

Yu Huang stared at that guy’s back and rubbed her fingers again.

She had her eyes on this person. It wasn’t too much for her to touch his hand in advance.

When Sheng Xiao left, Vivian and the others surrounded Yu Huang. “Yu Huang, you actually pulled Supreme Master Sheng’s hand!” Vivian quickly grabbed Yu Huang’s hand and rubbed it hard. She said, “Lend me some of Supreme Master Sheng’s luck and help me get into a good university!”

Jiang Shangfeng and the others queued up to rub Yu Huang’s hands. In the end, Yu Huang almost forgot how Sheng Xiao’s hands felt.

Anna Tao’s vigor was reignited when she partic.i.p.ated in the finals as a subst.i.tute student. Jiang Shangfeng and the others surrounded the bed and told Anna Tao about what happened in Cla.s.s 7. Anna Tao listened with a smile.

Yu Huang listened from the side when her phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was a message from Sheng Xiao.

Sheng Xiao: “Were you taking advantage of me just now?”

Yu Huang was somewhat embarra.s.sed. Why was this child so prudish?

Yu Huang thought that it was funny and deliberately replied: “Sorry, I was too excited and lost my composure.”

Sheng Xiao was not satisfied with this answer. He asked again, “Were you teasing me in the audience too?”

Yu Huang suddenly did not want to pretend anymore.

Alright, bro, I like you. What do you think I should do?

Yu Huang went all out and admitted it very honestly.

Yu Huang: “Mmm, I was flirting with you earlier. When I touched your hand just now, I was teasing you too. Brother Xiao, I like to tease you.”

Sheng Xiao was selectively blind. He did not see anything else but the words’ I like you ‘.

He leaned against the tree trunk and rubbed his burning ears before replying very reservedly, [Defeat Xuanyuan Jing first..] Get rid of all the jerks around you before pursuing me.
