Set up a funeral service team in a foreign land

When they returned to the college, they were much more eye-catching than when they left, in a low-key manner.

Some students passed by and couldn't help whispering in surprise when they saw them.

"Those are professors from the history department. They should be back from surveying the ruins."

"Fuck! Why does the person in Professor Iloven's arms look so much like the boss of Alchemical Gear?!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

"Professor Iloven and that human..."

"Ancestor, shut up!"

Someone wanted to gossip about the relationship between Yi Luowen and Zhujun, but was bumped into by his friends.

When he came to his senses, he felt Iloven's cold and indifferent gaze passing over him, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

How dare he talk about the Alchemy Demon King?!

Peregrine looked at everyone, pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go see the director first."

Speaking of the director, everyone's mood suddenly became complicated.

In the tea room.

Dean Ren put down his teacup and said, "They are back."

"I know."

Ren Pingsheng glanced at the young man's calm expression and sighed silently.

When Peregrine and others stood in front of the young man, his expression remained calm, like a monk as calm as a still well.

Peregrine was silent for a moment and said, "Qingshu and I completely filled up the remains of the crack before we left. Now they can rest in peace."

"Thank you for your hard work." Mu Zhong nodded to them and said gently.

His gaze then rested on Yi Luowen, and then looked at the silent Zhu Jun, without any expression of surprise.

Ren Pingsheng leaned to one side and crossed his arms and said, "I think Moonlight Valley is great, what do you think, Yi Luowen?"

He asked as if he knew what Iloven meant.

Yi Luowen raised his eyes and looked at Ren Pingsheng, his green eyes were deep and calm: "I think it's too quiet, the ancient banyan forest is better. It's closer to where I am. The little ones are a bit noisy, but it's okay with me here. I can go drink with them when I have nothing to do."

"Not bad." Ren Pingsheng nodded, then hesitated for a moment and said, "She gave me a letter when she left. Do you want to read it?"

Did Zhujun hand a letter to the dean before leaving?

Yi Luowen lowered his eyes and looked at Zhujun: "What did you say?"

"In addition to the trivial arrangement of entrusting the alchemical gear to the academy, he also mentioned one more thing to me."

"She hopes that the academy will not become a shackle for you."

Iloven was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and shook his head, turned around and left: "I'm fine staying here, thank you, Dean."

He just left the teahouse without anyone noticing.

The tea room was quiet, and everyone looked at the young man sitting at the desk without noticing.

Peregrine glanced at the silent Luo Xing and said carefully, "Director, when the Nuyi Goddess left, she asked you to take good care of her family."

Mu Zhong glanced at Luo Xing, who looked stubborn and pitiful as if he had just been caught in a heavy rain, and thought for a moment before saying, "Feng Liting may be waiting for you right now."

He did not pay too much attention to the three blue birds. In comparison, the one who cared for her was like an old father who did not show his feelings. What she needed was not him, a relatively stranger.

Luo Xing opened his mouth, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to say something but couldn't. For a moment, he felt like something was stuck in his throat. Finally, he nodded: "Yes."

She turned and left the tea room. She had some questions, maybe she could ask Professor Feng.

"Do you little guys have anything else to say?" Mu Zhong turned his gaze towards them and asked gently.

They were all silent for a moment, wanting to ask if he was really the Ju Mang they thought he was?

But what's the point of asking? It just adds more doubts, so it's better not to ask.

Seren Agrich pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Ren Pingsheng: "Dean, I need to take a few days off to go back to the family."

"Okay." Ren Pingsheng was quite easy to talk to. He also knew that the Argerich family had sniped the Drakov family at the Blood Clan Elders' Council. It was not surprising that Seren Argerich wanted to go back and take a look.

"Dean, I also want to ask for leave." Li Chu bit his lip and finally said, "I will return to the human world to complete Senior Zhujun's instructions."

"Okay, be careful on the road." Ren Pingsheng sighed, his eyes moving from the Huixian Dongxiao in the girl's hand with a complicated look.

Xi Sui'an glanced at Li Chu and Zhong Heng, thought for a while and said: "Zhong Heng and I will accompany her. I also want to go back to the human world." Apart from the matter of Penglai Pavilion, she also wanted to explore the place where A Ping became a groundbound spirit.

Zhong Heng was stunned, looked up at Xi Sui'an, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

It would be nice to have a chance to meet Sister Qingyun and the others.

"...Okay!" Ren Pingsheng was silent for a moment, and finally agreed while rubbing his forehead.

"Dean, then I..." Li Qing raised her hand and looked at him with a sincere expression: "I also want to--"

"You don't want to." Ren Pingsheng interrupted Li Qing expressionlessly.

Li let out a soft sigh and said, "Okay."

I have nothing to do and I really want to go to the human world to take a look. Since I can't go, forget it, I'll just take a bath in the hot spring.

There's always a chance.

"If you have nothing else, just leave." He waved his hand and started to chase people away.

They turned and left. Xi Sui'an glanced at them and said calmly, "You guys go first. I want to chat with the director for a while."

Li Qing blinked, glanced at the director, saluted to Mu Zhong and left first. He didn't want to delve into what had happened. It was enough to just look at those things that had nothing to do with him. There was no need to get bogged down in them.

The other three looked at each other. Peregrine glanced at Xi Sui'an and said, "We'll leave first too." He and Qing Shu pulled the three little guys who still didn't quite understand out together.

Xi Sui'an sat down skillfully opposite Mu Zhong and watched him pour her a cup of tea and then push it to her.

Xi Sui'an held the teacup, tapped the cup with his fingertips, and said after a long silence, "I'm sorry for your condolences."

No matter what the relationship between him and Nuyi is now, at least they were once friends.

These three words stunned Mu Zhong, and his expression was rarely expressed. A hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, and his hand that was pouring tea froze slightly.

"You... are the first person to say this to me." He put down the teapot, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

"Nuyi asked me to tell you." Xi Sui'an took out the purple-veined leaf and pushed it to Mu Zhong. She looked serious and said, "He said, He forgives you."

Mu Zhong looked down at the leaf, and after a moment he smiled helplessly, "He gave this to you?"

Mu Zhong pushed the blade back: "In that case, just take it." He paused, "Maybe it will be useful in the future."

Xi Sui'an stroked the leaves with his fingers, a little confused. What kind of leaves are these?

She didn't think too much about it. Since he asked her to accept it, she just accepted it.

Xi Sui'an said, "I didn't expect you would choose to let me send Nuyi off."

Mu Zhong laughed softly: "Why, you want to settle the score with me?"

"I dare not." She raised her eyebrows under the gaze of the person opposite her.

"Don't you think you should give me some labor fees?"

Mu Zhong was stunned for a moment, looked up at the little girl opposite him and smiled.

"what do you want?"

Xi Sui'an pointed at the table slowly and calmly.

"I want to hear you tell stories from the past, such as the stories about Xihe, Nüyi, or Wuli."

Mu Zhong couldn't help but be surprised. He looked at Ren Pingsheng who was watching their conversation, and finally nodded.

"Sure, ask whatever you want, I'll answer based on the situation."

"How did Xihe fall?" Xi Sui'an asked calmly, "And what about the rumor that his divinity is in the sacred cemetery?"

"You ask such a big question right away." Mu Zhong shook his head and sighed.

"It's not that I can't say it."

"According to current thinking, that was the early stage of the God War. The Aesir and the Vanir were the first to start the war. Gulveig, the prophet goddess of the Vanir, deliberately provoked and became the fuse of the war. In fact, I still don't quite understand why He did that."

He gave a wry smile.

"At that time, I didn't pay attention to what was happening over there. I don't know how, but that psychopath Loki designed to bring Balder, the God of Light, to the brink of death, and directed the attention of Tyr, the God of War, who was very concerned about Balder, to Xihe. They set their sights on Xihe's divinity."

"Xihe would not sit still and wait for death. It is no surprise that when he was fighting with the god of war Tyr, he wanted to seize Balder's divinity. Balder, who was on the verge of death, was like a piece of sweet cake, and anyone would want to try it.

He tried to take it, and succeeded, but He also failed.”

"Successful and failed?" What a strange statement!

“Their godhood is of a high status, so it is not easy to merge them. After the fusion, Xihe fell into a state similar to sleep.

Tyr didn't want to save Balder at this time. He couldn't help but covet the godhead, and was attacked by Xihe. The godheads of Xihe, Balder and Tyr merged, and the divine consciousness contained in them kept fighting. No one could gain the upper hand, and no one could completely merge the godhead. "He looked a little sarcastic about Tyr's behavior.

I successfully took away the godhead in the melee in Asgard, but I accidentally ran into Gulveig."

"I once thought that I would die in His hands." Mu Zhong pursed his lips slightly.

“The prophetic goddess did not attack me. She just said to me indifferently: My destiny has not yet come to an end.

When I returned to the Eastern Divine Realm, I heard that the God of Fate, Norn, was devoured and merged with Him. "

Xi Sui'an took a deep breath. The status of Gulveig and the goddess of fate Norn was not low either. How could their fusion state be better than Xihe's? !

“As for why Xihe is in the hands of the Holy Cemetery…” Mu Zhong paused and hesitated for a moment, “It was His own idea.”

? ? What do you mean?

Xi Sui'an was slightly stunned. She met Mu Zhong's gaze in confusion, and after a moment she understood: It's hard to say.

"What about the Female Yi God?"

"At that time, I asked Zhurong to support Him, because I didn't expect that Hebe, Iden, and Eris would all fight against Him, and even Loki would get involved. Nuyi forcefully merged and devoured Hebe and Iden, and Eris was injured and fled. He and Loki who got in the way met Zhurong who came to support him, and Zhurong... died at the hands of Loki."

Mu Zhong closed his eyes and said, "At the same time, the Olympus Realm also intervened, and the war of the gods became more chaotic."

"Rushou and Xuanming fell at the hands of Artemis of Olympus one after another. I was also his target, but in the end I defeated him." Mu Zhong said this with a smile on his face.

Xi Sui made arrangements for him and asked Zhu Rong to support Nuyi. As a result, Zhu Rong fell at the hands of Loki.

Ruoshou and Xuanming fell at the hands of Artemis, and he defeated Artemis again... This means that the godhood of Ruoshou and Xuanming also became part of Ju Mang's godhood.

"..." Xi Sui'an touched the tip of his nose. No wonder Nuyi's attitude towards him was so indescribably subtle.

Xi Sui'an pondered for a moment and said, "The reason you are targeting the Eternal Oath is because Loki's godhood is in the Eternal Oath?"

"Not necessarily." Mu Zhong curled his lips into a sneer: "Eris is not a soft persimmon that can be easily bullied." When Loki and Eris confront each other, it is hard to say who will be the one to be fused.

Xi Sui'an seemed to understand something. Now it was known that the Eternal Oath included the goddess of wisdom Athena, the god of the underworld Osiris, Eris or Loki, and a god who had sworn an oath to Thorin. This was really...

She knocked on the table and said, "Can I go to Ye Qiusheng to get all the information about the Eternal Oath later?"

"Okay." Mu Zhong said without hesitation. She would know it sooner or later.

Seeing Mu Zhong agree so readily, Xi Sui'an couldn't help but smile: "Director, there is one more thing you didn't say."

Mu Zhong's eyes condensed slightly, and he pondered for a moment: "You know a lot this trip." You even know the existence of Wu Li.

"It's hard for me to evaluate Wu Li. She wanders between the gods, their followers, and the human race. No one knows what she's thinking. I was very wary of her for a while.

After we held the last Heaven and Earth Ceremony, she led the Wuxiang tribe to live in seclusion, and the Nuyi couldn't find her. Even in the later period, when the inheritance of the Ten Witches of Lingshan disappeared, I didn't see any trace of the Wuxiang tribe. "

Mu Zhong frowned.

Xi Sui'an recalled what Qingyun had said: "I heard that there was a last person who was suspected to be a member of the Wuxiang tribe a thousand years ago?"

Mu nodded and confirmed her words: "You are right, but it is just a discarded pawn and is of no use." He didn't get any useful information.

Xi Sui'an was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Mu Zhong to have paid attention to this. She turned around and realized something: "Then Zhong Heng..."

"Yes, he has the last traces of Wu Xian left."

Xi Sui'an frowned. It was impossible for this great human to live that long, right?

Did she really save Zhong Heng just out of sympathy?

What is the significance of Zhongheng’s existence?

Mu Zhong sighed.

He looked out the window. The shadows of the trees were mottled, casting dots of gold. That little light could not illuminate his deep eyes. After a long while, he said, "Xi Sui'an."

"Ok?"

"I have lost another partner." He said lightly.

"..." Xi Sui calmed down for a few seconds. She glanced at Ren Pingsheng who was sighing and holding his forehead not far away, and then looked at the boy's calm profile. How about... comforting him?

She hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment and said, "If you don't mind... I'll walk with you for a while." Either she or this man might end up in a cold relationship first.

The young man was slightly stunned, then he looked back at Xi Sui'an, a little surprised: "People... are really interesting."

He looked at Ren Pingsheng again: "Dean Ren, learn how to speak from her. I won't have to write your speech for you next time."

Ren Pingsheng raised his eyebrows, a little surprised by Xi Sui'an's words. Turning around and hearing Mu Zhong's words, he said angrily: "I have been with you for most of my life. It's not easy for me. You despise me just because I wrote a speech?!" It's painful enough for him, a swordsman who only loves fighting, to be buried in a pile of materials all day long!

Mu Zhong curled his lips, raised his hand and poured a cup of tea and pushed it in Ren Pingsheng's direction: "Okay, I made a mistake."

Ren Pingsheng came over, picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp. After smacking his lips for a moment, he said, "I'll try to steal some wine from Ilowen next time. It tastes better than tea."

Xi Sui'an twitched his lips, and kindly tried to save Ilowen's loss: "Between wine and Professor Ilowen, I advise you to choose Professor Ilowen."

"..."
