Chapter 103: A Girl Should Not Be Kept Away
Probably because they had been notified in advance, Ling Shuang and Ma Xiaotao entered the Sea God Pavilion without any obstacles.
He also saw the real body of the golden ancient tree for the first time.
The branches were huge, with complicated knots and snake-like veins that rose along the trunk, separated and bloomed at the top, with luxuriant branches and leaves.
It was indeed the most abundant wonder in the Douluo Continent. Just by approaching it, Ling Shuang could feel the excitement of the Creation and Annihilation Twin Staffs that had not been released in his body.
Sure enough, he was not wrong. If he could use its power to practice for a period of time in this golden ancient tree, it would definitely be a great help to his understanding of the law of life.
"Student Ling Shuang, Mu Lao is waiting for you in that room." An old man seemed to have received the news in advance. Seeing Ling Shuang's arrival, he pointed directly to the room not far away and said.
Sure enough, Ling Shuang understood in his heart that it was indeed Mu En, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, who called him here.
Walking to the front of the room, Ling Shuang stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the wooden door in front of him three times.
"Knock, knock." A crisp knock on the door sounded slowly.
"Come in." An old voice came through the wooden door.
Pushing the door open, Ling Shuang and Ma Xiaotao walked into the room.
There was a recliner at the window of the room, and a skinny old man was half lying on it.
The bright golden light shone through the window, reflecting on the old man's old face.
Ma Xiaotao was slightly stunned, and then bowed slightly: "Xiaotao greets the master."
Ma Xiaotao is Yan Shaozhe's disciple, and Yan Shaozhe is Mu En's disciple, so Mu En is naturally Ma Xiaotao's master.
"Xiaotao, why are you here?" Mu En was also a little surprised to see Ma Xiaotao's arrival.
Could it be that Ling Shuang called her here?
But when Mu En observed Ling Shuang's face, he directly denied this idea.
Judging from Ling Shuang's reaction, it should not be him who called Ma Xiaotao here.
"Master." Although she was a little nervous facing this master who didn't have much intersection, her concern for Ling Shuang still prevailed.
Ma Xiaotao still said the words she had thought of when she came here.
"I know about LXiao Shuang affairs. I don't think this is Xiao Shaung fault. I hope that the Grandmaster will not embarrass Xiao Shuang. If there is a punishment, I am willing to share the burden for him!" Ma Xiaotao bit her red lips, not timid because of the Grandmaster Mu En's identity.
With Mu En's identity, she really doesn't need to care too much about her teacher Yan Shaozhe.
But Ma Xiaotao still stands on Ling Shuang's side. Even if the Grandmaster puts pressure on her, she can at least share some of the pressure for Ling Shuang.
This time, Ling Shuang was called here to compensate him for revealing the matter of Xuan Zi. Mu En, who had no intention of embarrassing Ling Shuang, was stunned when he heard Ma Xiaotao's words, and then reacted and couldn't help showing a helpless smile.
Knowing that Ma Xiaotao had misunderstood, Mu En changed his position on the recliner to sitting, and explained: "Don't worry, Xiaotao girl, I don't plan to do anything to Ling Shuang, I just want to apologize to him for Xuan Zi's matter."
Mu En is not a wooden man. He had a complicated relationship with the two Extreme Douluo when he was young, so he naturally saw the reason why Ma Xiaotao was so nervous about Ling Shuang.
Mu En knew that Yan Shaozhe wanted Ma Xiaotao and Ling Shuang to get closer.
Although he never made a clear statement, he agreed with Yan Shaozhe's idea deep down.
Although the possibility was not very high, if Ling Shuang could really be brought to Shrek Academy, it would be great.
But now it seems that if Ling Shuang was not brought over, Ma Xiaotao would be abducted.
But Mu En could understand it, and he had already thought of this situation.
After all, Ling Shuang's excellence is there.
When Mu En was young, he was also a celebrity in the soul master world, a genius soul master at the level of a male god.
But he thought that in front of Ling Shuang, his young self was far inferior to Ling Shuang in terms of appearance and talent.
If his rival in love was not Long Xiaoyao but the child in front of him, there would be no need to compete, and he would have admitted defeat honestly long ago.
Therefore, Mu En did not find it strange that Ma Xiaotao fell in love with Ling Shuang.
It's just that the situation of these two people is much more outrageous than he expected.
Originally, he thought that even Ma Xiaotao would be more passive, but Mu En did not expect that she would be so passive.
Judging from the performance of Ling Shuang and Ma Xiaotao, they didn't seem to have many ideas at all. It was clearly Ma Xiaotao's unrequited love! There should be no hope to pull people out, and there is a high probability that a genius will be sent out for nothing.
But Mu En did not intend to intervene.
Even if Ma Xiaotao was passive, it would be good if she could really win Ling Shuang in the end.
After all, even if this girl was abducted, she still had the identity of the dean's disciple of the Wuhun Department, and she could still have some good karma.
"Grandmaster, are you telling the truth?" Ma Xiaotao was stunned for a moment when she heard what Mu En said, and couldn't help but speak out again to confirm.
"Of course." Mu En was helpless, looking at Ma Xiaotao's nervous look, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Ma Xiaotao had already considered Ling Shuang before there was even a sign, what if it really happened later?
Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao didn't think that Mu En would lie to her, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and her originally nervous expression gradually relaxed.
Seeing this, Mu En said, "Are you relieved? I still have something to say to your junior brother, you go out and wait."
Hearing this, although Ma Xiaotao was not very happy, Mu En was her grandmaster after all, and she still had to give him the face she should give, so she nodded and agreed, and turned to leave the room.
However, Ma Xiaotao did not go far, but found a seat not far outside the room and sat down.
In the room, only Mu En and Ling Shuang were left.
Mu En looked at Ling Shuang and bowed slightly to him.
Ling Shuang was startled by his behavior and quickly turned sideways.
It's not that Ling Shuang was modest and felt that he couldn't bear it.
He was just afraid of falling into Mu En's calculations inexplicably.
These old foxes are more cunning than each other. God knows what will happen if they bow to him.
"Student Ling Shuang, I would like to apologize to you for Xuan Zi's behavior."
Mu En straightened up again and said, his tone seemed very sincere.
But Ling Shuang didn't feel anything.
This kind of thing seems to be useless.
There are many guys in this world who may seem very sincere, but they may stab you without hesitation at any time.
And for Xuan Zi's problem, Mu En came to apologize, which is enough to explain a lot of things.
Ling Shuang's thoughts turned rapidly in his head.
He didn't care about the apology, but if he could benefit from it, he would be quite happy.
