The white-haired old man seemed to know who was bullying who. He said indifferently, ”It's not like any student has the right to enter this tower. Who knows, they might be thrown out before they even reach the second floor.”
Shui Qinan laughed but did not speak, after looking at the tower for a while, she left. How could her son be thrown out? Following Shui Qinan's departure, Shui Qinan felt that the Nine Heavens Pagoda's light was becoming more and more intense, as if it was about to break out of the Cosmos Sack. The white-haired old man turned her head to look at Shui Qinan, then continued to look at the rattan chair, as if she did not feel anything.
As Shui Qinan walked further and further, the Nine Heavens Pagoda in her Qiankun bag also began to dim down.
After Shui Qinan left, the white-haired old man suddenly opened her eyes, and said softly: ”Looks like I can also leave soon.”
Ten in the evening, Xiao You had finished his entire day's worth of lessons and was about to go look for Shui Qinan when he heard Shui Qinan's gentle voice calling him. Xiao You pounced towards him and shouted while grinning, ”Mother.”
The few teenagers who were studying with Xiao You looked at Shui Qinan in astonishment. They thought that she was Xiao You's big sister.
Shui Qinan held Xiao You's hand and walked towards the tower that they had discovered earlier in the day. Xiao You didn't understand what Shui Qinan wanted to do, but when he saw that Shui Qinan was leading him towards the courtyard where the students of the academy lived, Xiao You pouted and said, ”I want to be with mother.”
”I know, mother will bring you to a place.” Shui Qinan said while laughing.
”Where is it?” Xiao You excitedly asked. Shui Qinan pointed to the peak of the pagoda and said: ”Xiao You, you have been in school for so long already. You haven't even gone in to take a look?”
”Where?” The dean said that this is a forbidden area, and those who enter will die. ” Xiao You said as he looked at Shui Qinan with suspicion. Shui Qinan stopped and asked back: ”Your Principal said that you are not allowed to go there?”
”That's right, even our big senior brothers and sisters are not allowed to go, not even the Vice President Zhang.” Shui Qinan said in a clear voice. Shui Qinan frowned, obviously the white haired old man from the day said that only students from the Nangong Academy could enter, and looking at the Nine Heavens Pagoda's reaction, there must be something powerful inside. But, why was that place a forbidden area to the Nangong Academy?
As the sky darkened, Shui Qinan raised her head and looked again. This time, she opened her eyes wide. This was because the tower was gradually changing colors at a visible rate. It merged with the sky, gradually became faint, and finally disappeared.
It was actually gone!
”Oh, and this tower is gone at night. It's really gone.” Xiao You said seriously.
Shui Qinan frowned even more, as though something had whizzed out of her mind, but in the end, she did not grab onto it. Shui Qinan shook his head and said: ”In a few days, mother will bring you to your sword.”
A few days later, Shui Qinan brought Xiao You to get the sword from Elder Tie at the agreed time.
