Mu Xue and Mu Xue

Mu Xue's gaze slowly fell on the extremely gorgeous food, but she did not eat it with relish.

It was just because she had already eaten at home early in the morning, so she really didn't have much appetite at this time.

Therefore, Mu Xue only ate a little and then gently packed up the remaining food and took it away.

"Sister Xue'er really loves Linglong so much that she doesn't even want to enjoy it all herself and keeps it all for her." Ziyuan said softly, her eyes full of admiration.

"Hahaha, after all, Linglong has come to our house, so we are like a family.

Now that she's sick, I naturally need to take good care of her!" Mu Xue responded with a smile that was like a beautiful flower blooming in spring.

After hearing this, Ziyuan didn't say anything more. She just nodded slightly and continued to eat her meal.

Not long after, the two walked out of the cafeteria together.

"Now that we've eaten and drunk enough, it's time to get down to business!" Ziyuan said, his tone full of anticipation.

"Oh, that's right! By the way, Sister Ziyuan, why did you call me here?" Mu Xue asked curiously, her big eyes twinkling like bright stars.

"Hehe, you'll know if you follow me!" Ziyuan said mysteriously with a sly smile on his face.

"Come on, I'll take you to a place to see - Shiyu." Ziyuan said, and then took Muxue's little hand.

Mu Xue was full of doubts because she didn't know Shi Yu at all, but she didn't ask too much. In her heart, following Sister Ziyuan would never be wrong.

Ziyuan brought Muxue to the clearing where they had been yesterday. She skillfully took out the elder jade token and slid it lightly, causing the ground to vibrate.

After a while, a dungeon entrance slowly appeared. "Let's go," Ziyuan said softly.

Mu Xue looked at the dungeon entrance, a strong sense of fear welling up in her heart, and for a moment she was a little afraid to go down. After all, she had no idea where this place was, and people always have a natural fear of unknown things.

Her eyes were filled with hesitation and uneasiness, and her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to take that step.

Mu Xue's resistance only existed in her heart, because there was another voice in her body that kept speaking.

The source of this voice was her sister Mu Xue, who told her that if they entered here, their cultivation would be sealed.

Ziyuan seemed to see Muxue's resistance, so she quickly explained, "Oh, don't be afraid, this is the academy dungeon, not some shameful place.

Shi Yu is the guy who tried to assassinate you two days ago." Mu Xue felt a little relieved after hearing this.

So, the two of them went hand in hand and stepped into the dungeon.

The two walked in the long corridor for a long time, but never reached the end.

Mu Xue felt that it was extremely cold here. A chill ran from the soles of her feet straight up to her heart, and she couldn't help but shiver.

She also thought it was very scary, like a haunted house in a horror story.

The dark environment seemed to hide countless unknown dangers. So, she couldn't help but hold Ziyuan's hand tighter.

Ziyuan couldn't help but smile when she saw Muxue's expression. That smile seemed particularly abrupt in this gloomy environment.

When Muxue saw Ziyuan smile, she suddenly felt that this place was even more frightening.

After all, in novels, the laughter of female ghosts will be heard first in those dark and haunted places.

Her heart beat faster involuntarily and tension spread throughout her body.

She clung tightly to Ziyuan, as if only in this way could she find a sense of security.

The two of them walked in this gloomy passage for a long time, as if time had been stretched out. Finally, a different scene appeared in front of them, and they reached the end.

However, they were stopped by a town guard.

This person was actually the same person Ziyuan met yesterday, but even so, he still did not let him go.

Ziyuan calmly showed the elder jade token to the guard and was allowed to pass.

"Doesn't that person know Sister Ziyuan? Why would he stop her and not let her go?" Muxue asked Ziyuan curiously, with confusion in her eyes.

"Of course, it's to prevent someone who could look like me from breaking into the prison.

So, you need to show a specific jade token to come in. Even the dean cannot come in without the token.

If someone insists on forcing their way in, they'll be attacked!" Ziyuan explained patiently.

"How powerful! It seems that the guards here have a lot of power!" Mu Xue couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"It's okay. Their power is the greatest in the dungeon. However, this is only when you don't show the jade token." Ziyuan said slowly.

The two chatted as they walked, their words echoing in the silent dungeon.

Soon, they arrived at Shi Yu's cell. Shi Yu was curled up in a corner of the cell, with messy hair and disheveled clothes, looking very pitiful.

"By the way, Sister Ziyuan, how do you know his name?" Muxue tilted her head and asked curiously.

"I was bored on the way back to the academy, so I chatted with him for a while, and then I found out." Ziyuan said, and couldn't help but think of the time when he teased Shi Yu that day, and a smile appeared on his face again.

"...That's what happened. Isn't it funny?" Ziyuan told Muxue in detail what happened that day.

After hearing this, Mu Xue also covered her mouth and laughed. The crisp laughter was particularly pleasant in this dull dungeon. The laughter seemed to dispel some of the haze and bring a little warmth to this cold place.
