55: Chapter 55 Right and Wrong

Outside, it was unclear when a light, drizzling rain had begun.

This was the first rain Youfeng City had seen in months.

The light inside the room dimmed.

The young man sat leaning against the wall, looking like a statue.

Who knows how much time had passed...

"Xiao Bai... this isn't good..."

"No... it's too late... something happened..."

"BOOM!"

The front door of Qian Mo's house was blasted open by a punch from Xiao Meng.

The immense impact caused the already somewhat old mechanical lock to break on the spot.

"Qian Mo! You guy, pull yourself together!"

The moment the door was blasted open, a white shadow dashed directly into the room.

Although the light was not very good, Hu Wang immediately noticed the young man who looked as good as dead.

"What are you doing? Are you playing 'statues,' or are you cosplaying as a Tree Yao?"

Tree Yao are the only Yao Race who can grow stronger just by basking in the sun, but their growth cycle is very long, and they are basically eaten by other Yao before they can Cultivate to an Advanced stage.

Therefore, in the circles of the Yao Race, they are synonymous with "giving up" and being a "clown."

Originally, Hu Wang wanted to be humorous to soothe the young man's painful heart.

But Qian Mo had absolutely no reaction to this.

If he couldn't still hear his heartbeat, Hu Wang would have really thought he was dead.

The more he looked at the young man's decadent appearance, the more uncomfortable Hu Wang felt.

He himself had also experienced this kind of desperate state of mind.

"Xiao Bai..."

Xiao Meng also walked over slowly, crouching down to look at the shadow under Qian Mo's bangs.

"Is Master dead?"

"He isn't dead, but his heart is dead..."

Hu Wang scratched the hair on his head with some irritation.

"Is it because he can't find his family?"

"Hmm..."

"Then why doesn't he keep looking? If he keeps looking, he will definitely find them eventually."

"Hmm? Right... Right! Xiao Meng, you really are a Genius!"

Hearing the young girl's words, Hu Wang's heart was suddenly shaken.

That's right, if you never forget, there will be an echo. As long as you don't give up, everything is possible! How did I not think of such a simple problem?

They say concern leads to chaos.

At this moment, Hu Wang directly grasped the key to solving the problem through Xiao Meng's words.

"But before that, I have to cast a divination first..."

The little white fox closed his eyes, and red Demonic Power slowly emerged.

In the dark, a mysterious and profound piece of information rushed into his mind.

He found that answer.

"Little Xiao Yan is not dead, Qian Mo!"

Hu Wang's breathing was a bit unstable; after all, he was currently only a quasi-second-tier, and his Innate Talent consumed quite a bit of Demonic Power.

"Go find her quickly! She is not dead yet!"

The young man, who had been deathly still, slowly raised his head, glanced at Xiao Meng, who had a worried look on her face, and Hu Wang, who had an anxious look, and then lowered his head again.

"I know..."

Qian Mo's voice was very soft, so soft it sounded like a blurred murmur.

"But... she and I have nothing to do with each other anymore..."

"You guy..."

Hu Wang punched Qian Mo, who had no desire to resist, sending him flying.

"Xiao Bai..."

Xiao Meng covered her mouth but did not step forward. She knew that if she wanted her Master to get out of this, it was best for her to just watch Xiao Bai do his thing.

Qian Mo's body fell heavily to the ground.

He then raised his arm, placing it across his forehead, covering his eyes.

"What do you mean she has nothing to do with you anymore? Do you know how difficult it is for a Star Beast to confess her identity to a human! It's a pity she trusted you so much..."

"She was the one who didn't want me anymore!"

The young man lying on the ground suddenly roared loudly.

"Since she doesn't want to be my family, why should I go find her... With her personality, she definitely never wants to see me again..."

Qian Mo's voice was choked with grievance.

"Qian Mo... is there some misunderstanding between you two?"

Hu Wang's tone was much calmer.

He knew the young man had just taken an important step and started venting his emotions; this was a good sign.

He didn't need to continue provoking him now; what he needed to do was continue to guide him out of this.

"I don't know... We were clearly full of confidence in the future yesterday, and we even made a promise that belonged only to the two of us..."

The young man's voice was intermittent.

Xiao Meng had already turned around and was waiting outside the door.

On one hand, she couldn't bear to see her Master, who had always been omnipotent in her heart, in such a decadent state; more importantly, she wanted to leave him with his final shred of dignity.

Leave men's business to men to solve, Xiao Bai, keep it up...

Inside the room.

Hu Wang first silently gave Xiao Meng a thumbs up in his heart, then walked over and patted the young man's shoulder.

"Since you also know you didn't do anything to wrong her, perhaps it was just a misunderstanding caused by her being sensitive?"

"Why not go find her and explain it clearly, to clear up the misunderstanding?"

"I just used my Innate Talent to calculate it; Little Xiao Yan is not in any life-threatening danger right now, she should have already escaped safely."

"Now what you need to do is work hard to improve your strength, making yourself so strong that no one on Blue Star can stop you. Then find her and explain it to her face to face..."

"Back in the day, I did the same thing; after all, the paths of humans and Yao are different..."

Hu Wang paced back and forth as he spoke unhurriedly, inadvertently bringing up his own past matters again.

"Senior Hu Wang..."

The young man suddenly spoke up, interrupting him. His voice was much steadier now.

"Hasn't Xiao Yan told you that you are very long-winded?"

"Haha... She has said that... But there's no help for it, after all, I've lived for a long time, and once I get to the point, I can't control my mouth."

Suddenly, Hu Wang seemed to realize something and turned his head to look at the young man in surprise.

He saw that he had sat up at some point, his eyes red and his face full of tear tracks.

But what comforted Hu Wang was that a sunny smile, like the one from before, had reappeared on his face.

"Wait... What did you just call me?"

"Senior Hu Wang."

"Good... Hahaha..."

Qian Mo didn't know why Hu Wang was so happy after he added 'Senior' after his name.

But in his heart, he sincerely thanked him.

Yes, since his conscience is clear, he just needs to explain things clearly...

Qian Mo raised his head to look out the window.

The rain was still falling.

But he knew that after the rain, the sun would come out...

At this moment, inside an Advanced single patient room in Youfeng City.

The weak young girl was lying quietly on the bed, her breathing steady, as if she were asleep.

"Why are you here..."

She suddenly spoke to the air.

"Sigh~ Are friends not even welcome when they come to bring you a fruit basket?"

A figure slowly appeared from the space, his tone frivolous.

"Friends come through the front door..."

The young girl said unhappily.

"Alright, Captain Li Qiaoyan, besides visiting you this time, I'm also here to express my gratitude for your leniency yesterday."

"Gratitude? I just did what I thought was right..."

"Oh? So that means catching that white wolf Star Beast was also what you thought was right?"

Captain Li Qiaoyan did not answer; the room was silent.

"I've heard that although this white wolf is a Star Beast, she neither harms people nor causes trouble..."

Except for having a bit of a temper...

He muttered to himself in his heart, then continued:

"But you still attacked her..."

The figure leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, a smiling mask reflected on the glass.

"The backlash of the 'Spear of Judgment' isn't easy to bear, right..."

"Ning Yunyan, shut up! This is... this is..."

"Alright, alright, my fault, I shouldn't have made you, a patient, angry."

Ning Yunyan, wearing the smiling mask, pretended to be scared, shielding his chest with his hands, palms facing outward.

"I was just saying it casually; after all, you know I still care about you quite a bit..."

"This Young Miss is a Silver Dragon Enforcer, I don't need your concern!"

"An intern one."

"You..."

Watching the young girl sitting on the hospital bed puffing out her cheeks with a furious look, Ning Yunyan stopped messing around.

"Alright, look, you're much happier now, aren't you? Don't keep a long face all day, smile more..."

"You dare to tease me!"

Captain Li Qiaoyan didn't even notice a faint blush appearing on her ears.

"I wouldn't dare."

Ning Yunyan raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.

"My purpose for this trip has been achieved; I still have a few deliveries to make."

Because the room lights were off, Captain Li Qiaoyan only then noticed that Ning Yunyan, wearing the mask, was also wearing a courier's uniform.

"Why are you delivering packages?"

"Can't help it, the organization doesn't reimburse living expenses. Life isn't easy, so I'm out delivering packages... Well, I'll slip away first, see you at school, bye~"

Watching the smiling mask in front of her slowly disappear, Captain Li Qiaoyan turned to look at the rainy cityscape outside the window.

"What exactly is right, and what exactly is wrong..."

"White wolf... I hope you don't hate me, because... I have things I must accomplish..."
