After Poseidon left.
The area around Zheng Qing and the two witches immediately became much quieter. Most of the wizards who were qualified to attend this cocktail party were worldly-wise and perceptive. They might be curious about gossip, but they would never be overly rude in such an occasion. They all tactfully avoided the crowd, leaving the area around the three of them even more empty.
This made Zheng Qing quite helpless.
He originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when someone came over to talk to him and slip away quietly.
"——So, what happened to your Xuanhuang Palace being blown up?"
Su Shijun looked at the wizard with a subtle expression, and said with a teasing tone: "Miss Jiang and I just stayed together for a short while, but you were blamed by the boss. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?... I am often watched by those newspapers, and I have seen a lot of gossip, but it doesn't matter... Miss Jiang is a real virgin, and it's not good for her to be influenced by you like this, right?"
She pronounced the words "virgin" very clearly.
I knew it, I knew it!
Zheng Qing was suddenly overwhelmed, and felt deeply regretful for not running away with Poseidon. But even in the wizarding world, there is no real medicine for regret.
Sure enough, after hearing what Su Shijun said, Jiang Yu also lost his temper. He glanced at the wizard and snorted, "Member Su, there is no need to belittle yourself. As far as I know, Dongdong is just a spiritual connection. You are still a genuine innocent person. If a great wizard like you doesn't care, what can I complain about?"
They are both innocent.
The person who caused them to suffer an unjust accusation will naturally bear all the resentment.
"Misunderstanding, you all misunderstood."
As soon as the word wizard came out, it immediately attracted two pairs of angry eyes, scaring him so much that he stuttered, and then he explained quickly: "- I mean, the bombing of Xuanhuang Palace was a misunderstanding! When you came that day, didn't the old locust tree in the yard, um, leave for some reason? It left a big pit in the palace... I thought, while the pit is still there, I should plant the Xuanhuang tree to avoid trouble... But I overlooked the connection between the Xuanhuang tree and the small world. It grew up in that small world, and its roots have spread to every corner of the small world. When it was released, it almost brought out the entire small world. In other words, our pit was suddenly stuffed with a small world..."
Having said that, Zheng Qing shook his head in fear.
"——Thanks to Brother Huang and Xiaoqing being here, together with Taiyi and Yuanshi, we have managed to stabilize the space-time structure near Xuanhuang Palace. But as you know, this kind of thing can't be accomplished overnight... We still need to sort it out slowly later."
He suddenly became happy again, not knowing what he was thinking of. "But this is not entirely a bad thing. I originally planned to reconstruct the protective array of Xuanhuang Palace, but I never found the right opportunity. This time, I hit the jackpot and created a natural space-time maze directly on it... With a little modification and the help of Yuanshi or Taiyi's 'Yin and Yang' law, I might have a chance to reconstruct a protective array of the nature of Liangyi dust..."
"It will be much safer when the great elves live there." Jiang Yu nodded with satisfaction and mentioned another idea she had last time.
Su Shijun looked unhappy, but this time he did not refuse bluntly. Instead, he waved to a place not far away: "Zheng Suyi? You three come here!"
The three big elves who had just passed by the door hand in hand looked confused. After confirming that it was indeed them who were called, they walked over reluctantly.
"--This sister wants you to live in the Silent Forest. There is a beautiful palace there. Do you want to go?" With just a few words, Su Shijun put the choice into the hands of the three great elves.
Hearing the words "Silent Forest", the three great elves who had received traditional safety education immediately shook their heads and rushed to say that they would never go to such a dangerous place.
Especially Zheng Susan, who sneaked to the wandering bar last time, had the most resolute tone.
"——That palace is where your father lives. It's very safe." Jiang Yu added casually.
This time, the big elves were in a dilemma. Although they had only grown up recently, they were sensitive elves by nature and could easily sense the subtle atmosphere between the adults. They immediately lost their composure, looked around, and dared not speak.
Zheng Qing looked at the big elf with a wrinkled face.
Suddenly I felt some emotion.
Ah, we eventually become the kind of people we once hated.
"Let's discuss this matter later..." He waved his hand, signaling several big elves to go play somewhere else. The big elves seemed relieved and disappeared from the sight of the three people in a flash.
The two witches seemed a little unhappy that the matter still needed to be "discussed again".
Zheng Qing caught a glimpse of Korma who seemed to have his back to them not far away from the corner of his eye, and suddenly had an idea.
"I heard that Korma recruited an ogre to be a professor at Edge College." He could clearly see that when he mentioned Korma's name, the back of the great wizard from the North District in the distance stiffened slightly.
"Ogre? Did I hear that correctly?" Su Shijun usually stays in the laboratory and rarely pays attention to such ordinary personnel arrangements. When he heard about this, he was inevitably a little surprised.
"To be precise, he is a ordained two-headed ogre." Jiang Yu added briefly, having obviously heard the news.
Zheng Qing nodded slightly. "I was also surprised when I first learned about this. But what Korma said makes sense to me... We established Edge Academy not because it is so special, but to allow more people to receive better magic education. Murlocs and half-giants can become students at Edge, and ogres can become teachers at the school. These choices just illustrate the inclusiveness and universality of Edge Academy. Wizards of any race and cultural background can enter this academy as long as they meet our requirements. We are united under the symbol of the shamrock because of our pursuit of magic."
Su Shijun understood the boy's implication.
"From the first day of its establishment, First University hoped that everyone would learn to be tolerant, but what was the result?"
She glanced at the witch next to her and smiled softly: "Look at Jiuyou and Alpha. Every wizard is looking for his own 'compatriots' in the school and getting closer to them, paying attention to blood, appreciating talent, valuing hard work, and liking to fight..."
“Things are always going to change.”
Zheng Qing emphasized his tone a little: "Professor Li of Potions said that when he was still studying at the First University, murlocs were like fence goblins, an undoubted pest in the wizarding world. Now, we can see the murloc professor walking safely in the campus in a robe, and every student will bow to him politely...Give possibility time, and everything is possible."
The two ladies were silent.
Just staring at him.
Unpredictable expression.
