Chapter 946 Ah~ Bai Hua wants to~ that~~!
“You really don’t consider me an outsider, huh? You say everything.” I asked with a teasing tone.
Although I could understand the things I wanted to know, the fact that the other party took the initiative to reveal this to me made it a different matter in terms of concept and representation of meaning.
Moreover, I didn’t expect this news to spread so quickly that even at the family level, it had been widely known.
You have to know that Xueming’s family is aligned with the witches, and the Witch Academy wouldn’t inform them of this without reason, so it must have come from the intelligence network shared by the families of other academies.
“After all, that’s the only way you’ll see my sincerity.” Ming Xueming seemed to casually bring up some irrelevant topics, but her meaning was already clear.
“So what do you want?”
“No, for now, I don’t want anything, but… if you’re willing to take this favor, that would be wonderful for me.” Ming Xueming said with a smile, “But that said, the reason I brought this up is also because it relates to another matter.”
“Oh? What else is there?” This time I was genuinely curious.
“Since the family members have already separated from Xiao and your true body in our world, the threats to you naturally diminish.”
“They want to cause me trouble?” I responded.
“Pretty much—after Nicola became the president of the All-Purpose Workshop, they couldn’t breach the Ice Snow Throne secret realm for a long time, so to divert from this failure, they must find something else to balance it out.”
“After reevaluating their thoughts, they are preparing to hold the instigator of this incident accountable.”
“In other words, it’s them, and they are all members of the Baking House, and they might also provoke your club.”
“It looks like the All-Purpose Workshop really wants to do this. As someone who wants to help the Baking House, you should be under a lot of pressure, right?” After listening to Ming Xueming, I roughly understood what they aimed to do.
Basically, when I was not at the seat, they wanted to stir things up.
“Yes~ I wonder how Teaching Assistant Xiao Han views this?”
“Are you asking this question yourself or from the standpoint of the All-Purpose Workshop?”
“What if it’s from my own perspective?”
“Then that means… I don’t care, just don’t drag me into it. As for the rest, if Milien doesn’t come to find me, I can leave this matter to her.”
“And what if I asked instead on behalf of the current president?” Ming Xueming continued, seemingly curious about the difference in responses.
“If she dares to do that, then it’s asking for death. Let’s wait and see the fireworks in the Qunluosen Wilderness.” I said directly.
The Qunluosen Wilderness is the location where the core of the Ice Snow Throne secret realm is set. As for what would set off fireworks in that wilderness… well, it would depend on their own choices.
My Ancient Ice Remains clone was about to complete its phased research.
If it continued, I would have to leave the secret realm to proceed.
Regardless of whether it was the Soul Drawing that required my personal intervention, the merging of the Fa Mu Book, or the tearing and study of the Void Rifts.
None of these could be done within the secret realm.
A secret is merely a cut-off material space; not even a world can withstand the tearing of a Void Rift, it can only slowly heal after being sustained by the Void Rift.
This is enough to demonstrate how terrifying the Void Rifts truly are.
Some powerless extraordinary beings might even fall into the Void Rifts.
However, at this moment, Ming Xueming was quite surprised by my resolute threat.
In her eyes, the only threat is me in my true form; my clones are nothing to fear.
After all, the battlefield’s gatekeeper is my clone, and many people have interacted with it and are well aware of the clones’ strength.
“You have a way to let an entire secret… oh! I spoke out of turn.” Ming Xueming wanted to say something, but then realized and quickly changed her words, “…I’m really sorry, but I’ll communicate this message in full to Nicola.”
“Do as you please, but I actually hope she dares to act mindlessly.”
After this topic concluded, the journey we shared was also coming to an end.
It felt like a small interlude, unnoticed by anyone, and I quickly forgot it.
I arrived at the central teaching area of the academy.
I hadn’t informed Sister Bai about my arrival in advance, as I intended to surprise her.
But this also meant that I didn’t know exactly where she was at the moment.
However, I roughly knew what Sister typically did, and she was most likely teaching at this time!
Even though the semester had already ended, students could still attend classes at the academy.
But those would be voluntary courses.
After wandering around the training room and teaching area that Sister often visited and not spotting her, I had to head to her office.
Upon pushing the door open, I found only Miao and He, two witch sisters.
The original Sister Sitawei was absent, likely having some urgent matter to attend to.
“Uh… sorry to interrupt you both. Seeing the two of them sitting together, I said apologetically.”
“Ah~ It’s fine~ It’s Xiao Han! It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other~”
“Yeah, it’s been a while. I didn’t expect you two to be so close. By the way, do you know where my Sister Bai went?”
“Your Sister Bai… hmm, I’m not too sure. If I remember correctly, she should be in class, right? But it’s surprising to see…”
“I’ve looked for her, I checked the usual places: the classrooms and training grounds, but found nothing.”
“That’s odd, Xiao Han. Why didn’t you just ask your Sister Bai directly?”
“Oh, I intended to surprise Sister Bai, so I didn’t ask, and now I can’t find her… It’s a bit awkward.”
Moreover, Sister Bai is extraordinary; even the Qi Observation Technique would find it hard to track a bystander without fortune.
If all else fails, I might have to use the Earth Vein Identification Technique to connect to the relatives network for a check.
However, Sister Bai doesn’t have Earth Vein cases; if she intends to hide her location, even if she doesn’t try to conceal it, any disruption could cause significant trouble for me.
“Is that so… in that case, we really can’t provide any useful information.” Miao shook her head, somewhat regretfully.
“By the way!” At that moment, as if recalling something, she said, “Wasn’t there that someone looking for Bai Yu before? It seemed to be related to the Expanding Realm?”
“The Expanding Realm? What does Sister Bai have to do with the Expanding Realm? I’m curious.”
“Speaking of which, I think I remember the Expanding Realm is about to open? The academy has been investigating the situation in the Expanding Realm. Although the Expanding Realm has already lifted the ban on extraordinary witches, the student group hasn’t yet.”
“So what?”
“So it’s likely Bai Yu went along with them.”
“Huh?” I found it hard to believe, but after some slight contemplation, I felt I understood a bit.
It seems I indeed had some ideas related to the Baking House and the Expanding Realm when I was with Sister Bai; perhaps she went there because she hasn’t heard of it?
“Is that so… then I won’t disturb Sister Miao and He any longer~”
After a somewhat hasty farewell, I decided not to interrupt the two witch sisters from discussing their matters.
Things were a bit beyond my expectations; if Sister Bai was indeed like this, then it seemed I couldn’t give her a surprise. But just in case, I prepared to communicate first.
Meanwhile.
In the Expanding Realm.
This was the Witch Academy’s first visit to a non-extraordinary-group force. If it were in the Core Realm, the Witch Academy wouldn’t be concerned at all.
However, a branch of the Witch Academy was about to be established in the Expanding Realm, so some preliminary investigation work was necessary.
Moreover, there is still great debate over the form of construction for the Witch Academy. Should it be similar to Magic Capital, a curtain wall parallel to the material space of the Core Realm, or should it resemble other extraordinary academies, directly utilizing a large real estate area as the academy grounds and building a massive Witch Academy on it?
So far, both sides have held steadfast to their positions.
After all, the curtain wall facilitates seamless integration with the real city and wouldn’t be disturbed by external noise.
Some witches believe that since there are so many undeveloped areas in the Expanding Realm, why not just choose an area to establish it?
At that time, using the academy city model to stimulate that area and its surroundings would be beneficial.
After all, the early establishment of the Mengchu Witch Academy opted for this method because the witches arrived late. By that time, basic infrastructural construction in the Core Realm had nearly returned to prosperity, and building an area as large as Magic Capital was indeed a challenge.
They also had to contend with the influence of terrain and environment, so it would be better to directly open up a space.
Many Witch Academies directly opened up space within the Void, which set an example, leading to no objections from any witches.
At this moment.
When the witches coming to the Expanding Realm for business discovered something after arriving here.
That is… Xiaose’s name works wonders here.
Even her girlfriend, Bai Hua, is popular in this place.
When a person is celebrated by many, that person’s name can easily be deified, and once this spreads, she becomes a spiritual symbol, even those who have never met her would be moved by the acts being spread.
Such propagation only intensifies outside the Ning Er world.
Even the networks they can use bear her renown.
From the root networks of intercommunication to the Power Network that maintains order, there are traces of her presence in the Expanding Realm.
“Oh, I said, in this Expanding Realm, showing these folks our identities as extraordinary witches, they have no concept of us. It’s really not as good as Sister Bai Yu’s graceful identity~ I really didn’t expect Xiao Han to have such high prestige in the Expanding Realm! What has she really done?”
“I heard she transformed quite a few divisions and personally led those just arrived in this world to establish sheltered havens in the Expanding Realm?”
“Bai Yu, you are Xiao Han’s girlfriend! No one here can outdo you in terms of voice! Come on, tell us~”
“Come on~”
“Come on~” xN
This group of witches started to cheer, surrounding Bai Yu, waiting for some new gossip.
“Okay~ okay~” Bai Yu was somewhat shy from their teasing, but she actually had gathered some insights from the Expanding Realm.
However, just as she was about to share, she suddenly received a message.
“Huh? Hey? What’s going on?”
“Spill it! I’m curious!”
“Wait a moment!” Bai Yu raised her hand to indicate, “Ah… what bad luck, it’s Xiao Han contacting me.”
“Hey? Xiao Yu? Isn’t this just perfect! What does Xiao Yu want to discuss with you? Didn’t she say she was engaged in some confidential experiment? Even we don’t know what she’s researching.”
“Exactly~ What is it?”
“Wait a minute.” Bai Yu replied to a message and soon learned the context, “Sorry… it’s Xiao Yu. She has temporarily ended her experiment and come out! I need to go find her!”
“Hey? You’re going to leave us sisters here alone?” Bai Yu!
“Geez, after gaining love, you’re abandoning your sisterhood? So cruel~”
Seeing Bai Yu’s swift change, the other witches immediately looked as if they had been abandoned.
“Don’t act like that! Xiao Yu and I haven’t seen each other outside the lab for a long time. Now that she finally came out, you all should understand the significance of this, right?”
“Oh~ I get it~ Bai Yu has been apart from Xiao Han for too long and wants to~ that~~” Suddenly, one witch started to tease.
Once one witch initiated, the others swiftly joined in!
“I see! No wonder Bai Yu seems so excited; she has been eagerly awaiting this~”
“Ugh—our Bai Yu sister hasn’t snuggled with Xiao Han for a long time; urgently needs some energy replenishment~”
“Haha~ A witch’s everyday feelings; Bai Yu, hurry up, but don’t mess things up~”
“You all! You all!” Bai Yu’s face turned slightly red at the teasing, and although she did have a bit of that intention, it was frankly too embarrassing for it to be pointed out like this!
It sounded as if she was desperate to see Xiao Han solely for that purpose! How could that be?!
“Rest assured, Bai Yu.” At this moment, one witch stepped forward, placing a hand on Bai Yu’s shoulder, then pretended to speak meaningfully, “I understand you~ Go for it! You don’t need to be shy! You’re an extraordinary witch aiming to conquer the legendary little witch!”
“That’s right~ Don’t worry, sister; some of the data you collected, I’ll organize and send over to you shortly! I know you prepared it for Xiao Han; I’ll support you on this!”
With laughter and teasing echoing around, Bai Yu was sent away as the spatial passage shattered with a boom.
Watching Bai Yu leave, the laughter gradually began to fade.
“Ah~ It’s no fun anymore.”
“Does anyone want to be the location reporter?”
“I’m not going; I don’t want to be the third wheel.”
“What serious witches would even do that~”
“Exactly~”
