And when the door behind the two of them closed, soft white lights suddenly came from the front.
Ye Xiyue squinted her eyes and waited until she got used to the light before looking forward intently.
This is a long corridor.
The corridor is not very wide and can only accommodate three or four people walking side by side.
The white light came from the mountain wall - there were fist-sized night pearls inlaid on it, illuminating the dark corridor.
These luminous pearls are all valuable, but at this time, they are only left here for lighting.
It’s really a big deal!
Ye Xiyue silently marveled in her heart and walked forward.
Jingchuan was right behind her, and his breathing could be heard.
This made her feel more at ease.
After walking through this section of the tunnel, the two finally arrived at the depths of the cave, and their eyes suddenly opened up.
This is an extremely wide space, with a circular shape as a whole, and squares are hollowed out on the surrounding mountain walls.
There are various objects placed in the neatly arranged squares of different sizes.
There are books, medicinal materials, and spiritual weapons.
A layer of transparent barrier covers it, giving it a faint glow.
In the center of this space, there is a square blue jade platform.
An old man in a white robe was sitting cross-legged.
He had his eyes closed, his beard and hair were all white, and he had an immortal air.
This is the dean of Nanshan College—Mo Xiu?
Ye Xiyue saluted respectfully:
"Student Ye Xiyue, I met the dean."
Mo Xiu slowly opened his eyes.
Those eyes are deep and full of vicissitudes, as if they are in a calm state, surrounded by thousands of stars.
When he looked over, Ye Xiyue felt as if his entire being had been seen through!
She was shocked - this person's strength was definitely higher than that of Xuan Hai and Mu Ling, and he was the strongest person she had ever seen!
Mo Xiu looked at her with an indifferent and kind smile on his face.
"Are you... Ye Xiyue?"
Ye Xiyue was stunned.
For some reason, she always felt as if the dean knew her.
And his eyes were a little strange.
It was as if...looking at another person through her.
"Exactly the students."
Ye Xiyue responded.
Mo Xiu looked at her carefully for a long time, then sighed softly.
"You...really look like your mother."
Ye Xiyue was stunned.
Her mother?
In the impression, the original owner's biological mother passed away shortly after giving birth to her, so even the original owner had no impression of her.
"Does the dean know my mother?" Ye Xiyue asked tentatively.
Mo Xiu smiled, his expression a bit nostalgic.
"We have met several times."
Ye Xiyue felt a little weird in her heart.
The dean's reaction shouldn't be the emotion he would have for someone he has only met a few times, right?
But Mo Xiu didn't say much, and she couldn't ask any more questions.
"Are you already at the fourth level of entry level now?"
Mo Xiu asked again.
Given his level, he could naturally see through her strength at a glance.
"Yes. The student just made a breakthrough a few days ago."
"Tianwenjian also recognizes you as its master?"
"yes."
"good."
A look of satisfaction finally appeared on Mo Xiu's face.
Ye Xiyue was even more puzzled.
Didn’t it mean that the dean has spent most of his time practicing in seclusion over the past few years?
How do you know so much about her?
Although she is the eldest lady of the Ye family in name only, this status is not worth mentioning in front of Mo Xiu.
Why does he seem to care about her so much?
However, Mo Xiu did not continue to ask her, but instead looked at Jingchuan.
