She looked at Taotie, who seemed to have been aware of his arrival. After transforming into a human form, she whispered, "When did you... notice it?"

"About half an hour ago?" Taotie said, seemingly not getting what she meant, and smiled.

Bai Xin exhaled a turbid breath, her expression becoming serious. "I'm asking, when did you realize... the master's identity?"

Hearing this, Taotie's expression became serious, no longer showing his cynical look. He spoke word by word, "You are talking about this. Anyway, I participated in that battle in the Nine Heavens before. I knew it after I met the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens. I really can't remember the exact time..."

Bai Xin listened, forced a bitter smile, and sighed, "Ah... Master, this time, you have a long way to go..."

While they were talking, Qiongqi had been squatting in a corner not far away, eavesdropping for a while.

After all, among the three divine beasts, he should know the most complete information, and was the first to understand Su Mohui's identity. He also knew that her journey was destined to be bumpy.

So, most of the time, he was very worry-free, acting as an older brother, taking good care of Taotie and Bai Xin, and allowing Su Mohui to worry less.

..........

The next day, Su Mohui went to get out of class as usual, but when she returned to the dormitory in the afternoon, she ran into Qi Mo and Shen Jiaan who were sitting on the first floor waiting for her.

At this moment, they were all wearing serious expressions, with their arms folded across their chests, looking at Su Mohui who was standing at the door at a loss.

"Are you...hiding something from us?" Qi Mo spoke first, asking the question that had been bothering him all night.

Listening to him extending the olive branch, Shen Jia'an leaned forward a little and continued to stare at Su Mohui.

Su Mohui felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the two men. She threw the book onto the mahogany table, sat down across from them, and said leisurely, "Do you want to know what I'm hiding from you?"

After all, she had served in the special forces in the 23rd century. Faced with such interrogation-like questions, she was not at all panicked, just a little bit guilty, that's all...

Shen Jiaan also spoke, but his tone was still a bit annoying: "Well... I am a little stupid, but not too stupid, right? When you came back last night, we didn't notice at all..."

"So, this beautiful, kind, generous and lovely Miss Su, can you tell us what is going on with these ups and downs of your martial arts?"

Seeing that the two asked this question, Su Mohui told them what happened during the day without any hesitation. However, she did not tell them about the matter about A Guang that was still unresolved.

After hearing this, Qi Mo looked at Su Mohui worriedly. Before he could say anything, he reached out and grabbed Shen Jiaan who was jumping up and down.

At this moment, Shen Jia'an was completely concerned about Su Mohui's safety. After slapping Qi Mo's hand away, he continued to move closer to Su Mohui, asking, "How is your injury? Does it still hurt?"

Su Mohui cast a reassuring look at Qi Mo, watching him grab the back of his neck, then smiled and said, "I'm fine, you see..."

As she spoke, she stood up and turned around a few times in front of the two men so that they could see them carefully.

Now it was Qi Mo and Shen Jiaan's turn to laugh, "I'm glad you're okay..."

"It's just that you have to start practicing again..." Although Shen Jiaan had already admitted that he was stupid, his IQ was still online sometimes. "But it doesn't matter. The second time is always more proficient than the first time..."

Qi Mo smiled, looked at Shen Jia'an, then at Su Mohui, and asked a explosive question: "Since Mohui just said that she had obtained that...water and fire element, I guess this training will be a bit more troublesome, right?"

"Indeed, it's not a problem. My master knows a lot and can give me some pointers..." After all, You Fuyao knows a little bit about everything, so he should understand this kind of thing too...

Su Mohui was thinking about this when she suddenly remembered a joke and pretended to be serious. "Now, let's talk about you two... Are you two young masters hiding something from me?"

! !

Qi Mo and Shen Jia'an hadn't expected her to ask that question at all. They subconsciously looked at each other, seemingly communicating something with their eyes...

After a moment, she continued, using the familiar wise words: "Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist!"

Qi Mo's heart tightened when he saw her look, and he came clean, "I'm not hiding anything from you, except..."

"Except what?" Shen Jiaan looked curious.

Qi Mo rolled his eyes at him and took a sip of tea. "You know I've been designated as the next head of the Qi family..."

Shen Jiaan looked excited and said, "Everyone knows that the Qi family is the number one family in the Luoshen Empire. Brother, I will follow you from now on." Then he patted Qi Mo's shoulder.

Su Mohui and Qi Mo stared at Shen Jia'an with a look of anticipation. After all, these two had basically no secrets, so they knew that this guy must be hiding something from them.

"Actually, I have been designated as the next head of the Shen family." Shen Jia'an scratched his head and laughed.

One is a family of martial arts, the other is a family of wealth.

The Shen family is the number one martial arts family in the Luoshen Empire, and was personally granted a plaque and title by the Emperor. Unlike the Qi Mo economic family, although the Qi family is an imperial merchant family that controls the economic lifeline of the country, the title is still not on the same level.

Let’s see the two families’ designated heads of families get together. Who knows what kind of sparks will be created in the future...

Su Mohui thought about it and said jokingly, "I hope you two young masters will take good care of me from now on!"

"Please take care of me, Miss Su." Qi Mo said jokingly with a smile.

At the same time, Shen Jiaan waved his hands and even said with a little pride: "It's just a small matter..."

Another month passed, and after Zhan Qing finished his work in the northwest, he returned to the imperial capital.

Before she came back, she sent a message to Su Mohui. After all, she hadn't been close to her Mohui for such a long time and missed her.

As soon as she stepped into the border of the imperial capital, she saw Su Mohui, Qi Mo and Shen Jiaan waiting for her not far away.

"Ah~ Mo Hui, I miss you so much--" As she said that, she fell off the horse and rushed straight towards Su Mo Hui, almost being knocked away by the latter.

Although Su Mohui's talent in cultivation is amazing, she is only in the late stage of martial arts now, and she cannot resist Zhan Qing's warm hug.

Zhan Qing also learned about Su Mohui's situation from Qi Mo's message. He restrained his enthusiasm, looked at Su Mohui a little embarrassedly, and touched the latter's...head.

That’s right, Zhan Qing ran around and jumped up and down in the northwest every day, and his height directly jumped to 1.65 meters.

Even though Su Mohui basked in the sun every day to supplement calcium, she only grew one centimeter taller in this month. Now she can barely be said to be 162.5 cm tall.

That rounded 0.5 is her last act of stubbornness...

At the same time, Shen Jia'an smiled brightly, poked Qi Mo, who was watching the fun nearby, with his elbow, turned around and took out something from the carriage.
