Companionship

The sky is already dotted with stars, and the oppressive black is like a curtain, pulling down the prelude to all the events of this day.

The road in the Canaan Academy was empty at this time, and I could only faintly see a few thin figures passing by quietly, as if they had made an agreement in unison, and it was difficult to hear any obvious voices.The lively scene in the early days is gone at all, only the years and heaviness unique to the academy are left.Occasionally, there will be some insects' calls slowly, adding a color, making this world not so silent.

On a small path, there are two figures moving towards the dormitory.

"Xiao Yan, I heard that the family has moved away, did something happen?" Xiao Yibai finally broke the silence surrounding the two of them, and asked Xiao Yan while walking at a moderate pace. .The inner court selection competition will last for many days, and today's competition has also ended.But for some unknown reason, mentor Ruolin and Xiao Xun'er left early, but he and Xiao Yan had just come out after watching the match all day.

Xiao Yan was taken aback when he heard this, he shook his hand deeply without Xiao Yibai noticing it, and after a moment of silence he said calmly, "Actually, it's nothing, I just don't think it's suitable to continue working in Wukong." I stayed in Tancheng and moved to Mocheng. The eldest brother and the second brother are both there, so nothing should happen. It's just..."

After Xiao Yan's words paused, he raised his dark eyes and turned his head to look at Xiao Yibai, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Father...he...is missing."

"Uncle Xiao Zhan?" Xiao Yibai frowned, stopped, repeated, and then turned his eyes inexplicably.In the depths of his eyes, a trace of thought flashed quickly.

This time period...

"Yibai, long time no see. About little Yanzi...you can ask Yibai, maybe Yibai will know something." Following an old voice, Yao Lao stroked his gray beard while Floating unsteadily in mid-air.

At this time, he was looking at Xiao Yibai with a smile.

Yao Lao looked at the young man in front of him with some confusion. Although he had been sleeping these days, he was still aware of what happened outside.So, in fact, he saw everything in his eyes. Thinking of this, Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan and sighed softly in his heart.

This disciple of his...

"En, by the way, Yibai, do you know what this is?" Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze flatly, took a deep breath, and lowered his head with some meaning.In the end, with a flash of light on the ring, a quaint piece of jade appeared in Xiao Yan's palm, and a spot of light was shining on the piece of jade.

The jade piece is very ordinary, so ordinary that there is no abnormality at all, and there is no fluctuation of vindictiveness at all.

"En?" Xiao Yibai responded, and casually cast his gaze over. When he saw this piece of jade, his pupils shrank obviously, and his pair of peach blossom eyes stared at the piece of jade tightly, The smile on his face froze for a moment.

This breath...

"How about a bet?" The man said to him a little crazy not long after he first came to this world.

"What are you gambling?"

"Just bet..."

……

Quickly withdrawing his thoughts, Xiao Yibai stretched out his white hand, took the jade piece from Xiao Yan's hand, stroked it lightly, feeling the slightest coolness, Xiao Yibai's heart tightened accordingly .In the end, he raised his head and smiled at Xiao Yan, then returned the jade piece to Xiao Yan.

"This thing is very special." After a moment of silence, Xiao Yibai handed the jade piece back to Xiao Yan. It has something to do with the Emperor. It has been a long time since there has been a Doudi-level powerhouse in the Douqi Continent, so it is also considered to be related to the mystery of the Doudi, and many people want to get it."

Xiao Yibai withdrew his gaze, sighed in his heart, it has been... a long time since a Doudi appeared in the Douqi Continent.

"Very important?" Xiao Yan squinted his eyes, looked down at the jade piece, weighed it lightly, and asked with his usual expression.

Nodding his head, looking at the jade piece again, Xiao Yibai said in a somewhat complicated manner, "Well, it's very important. So, Xiao Yan, don't take it out in front of others."

Gently rubbing the ring, Xiao Yibai frowned calmly, as if there was a familiar aura on it, as if he remembered something, Xiao Yibai asked, "Xiao Yan , do you ask why?"

"Well, I suspect it has something to do with my father's disappearance." Xiao Yan put it back into the storage ring, his expression a little ugly.Xiao Zhan's status in Xiao Yan's heart has always been very high, Xiao Zhan is one of the few people who can still care for Xiao Yan after he loses his talent.Therefore, when Xiao Yan returned to Xiao's house and found that the stalwart figure was gone, he was very anxious.This kind of worry has continued, and it will always beat in his heart from time to time.

But Xiao Yibai's words gave Xiao Yan some ideas, he began to think about the events of these days in detail, desperately recalling, trying to find some clues.

Seeing Xiao Yan's appearance, Xiao Yibai also stopped at the side, and began to think in his heart, should he give up the ancient emperor jade?He felt a familiar aura on it just now, this aura...Xiao Yibai blinked suddenly, and gently raised his hand, this aura...could it be him?But, it's not the same again... Xiao Yibai's handsome face changed several times, and in the end he just stood quietly by the side without speaking.

……

"Yao Lao, what happened to you these days?" Xiao Yibai glanced at Xiao Yan again, and asked the old man beside him a question in his heart.After Xiao Yan came to the academy, although Xiao Yan said that he didn't encounter anything, and he never mentioned the things in Misty Cloud Sect, he always felt strange, even if he couldn't tell where the strangeness was.

It seemed like nothing happened, but he always felt a little awkward.So while Xiao Yan was deep in thought, Yao Lao also appeared, and he expressed his doubts.

Hearing this, Yao Lao was taken aback for a moment. Thinking of the scenes these days, he finally said meaningfully, "Nothing really happened. Well, you guys should go to sleep too. It's time for the old man to go back. Canaan College can't tolerate it." The old man is wandering outside." It's just that a certain brat saw his heart clearly.

Smiling and shaking his head, Yao Lao stroked his beard, and there was a little glimmer in his vicissitudes of life pupils. "Okay, the old man is back."

……

"Yibai." Xiao Yan raised his head suddenly, and pronounced the name that appeared in the depths of his heart from time to time in a unique tone.He couldn't help looking at the young man in front of him. The young man in front of him seemed to be exactly the same as when he left Xiao's house. Become the gathering place of eyes, and no matter what he does, he will be by his side.But, everything has changed, at least in his opinion.

He was the only one he wanted to tell when he learned his father was missing.

"what?"

Xiao Yibai's movements paused, and he turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, with doubts in his eyes.Yao Lao's actions just now made him a little confused.

Xiao Yan smiled, he didn't mean to explain anything, he just raised his hand naturally, ready to pinch the latter's face.The moment he just lifted it up, Xiao Yan was taken aback, his arms hung in the air and stopped in mid-air.Looking at his hands inexplicably, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed, he quickly squeezed them, and replied calmly, "It's nothing."

Frowning, Xiao Yibai looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously. Seeing that the latter's expression remained unchanged, he snorted softly and continued walking towards the dormitory.

silent night...

……

When a middle-aged referee walked slowly to the square, deafening cheers erupted from the stands.

Today, the top [-] candidates in the inner court trials will be selected, and these [-] people will undoubtedly be the most dazzling talents of Canaan Academy this year.Regardless of whether he was famous before, as long as he enters the top fifty, he will... become famous in one fell swoop.

"Sister Xun'er is so beautiful today!"

"Aww, aww, this fragile little heart can't stand Xun'er's smile. Oh, heaven! Oh, the earth! Oh, Emperor Dou! Oh!"

"Come here, come here, come here, my goddess is coming towards me!"

When Xiao Yibai and Xiao Yan first stepped into the square, they could clearly hear the voices of discussions around them that were difficult to ignore.

"Brother Yibai, brother Xiao Yan, you are here." Xiao Xun'er who caused the commotion waved at the two people who came over, showing a smile that made people around them unable to move.

The girl walked slowly with brisk small steps, and the cyan long skirt swayed with the girl's walking, exuding an elegant temperament.With such an appearance, it is no wonder that the people around are so restless.

"Yibai." Seeing Xiao Yibai approaching, Tutor Ruolin, who was sitting by the side, pondered for a moment, sighed softly, and said solemnly, "Your opponent today may be Lu Mu."

"That Lu Mu from the refining department?" Xiao Yibai blinked and asked.

"That's right, it should be him." Instructor Ruolin nodded and said in a deep voice, "Be careful."
