This sentence fell like a thunderclap, exploding in Sara’s ears.
Aside from shock, there was more anger.
Clearly, the tone of this sentence was very calm, yet it conveyed an unparalleled pressure.
Sara’s fingertips turned slightly white, and she said coldly, "Who exactly did you see?!"
Sages vary in strength, their power is not equal.
Among the female sages, after the Wheel of Destiny completely fell, she was the strongest presence.
But if it’s not a sage, how dare they confront a sage?
"If you want to know who it is, you could step out of the Sage Academy and see." Qin Lingyu crossed her arms, "Too many sages fell in the last century, and the Sage Academy has been empty over the past twenty years."
"Did it give you the illusion that the City of the World is yours alone?"
Yu Xuesheng held Qin Lingyu’s shoulder, with a faint smile: "Sara, you said yourself, a great disaster is about to descend, the disaster guides us back."
"Then, surely the Emperor will return to the Sage Academy before the disaster arrives. By then, why don’t you compete with him too?"
The fifth of the Twenty-Two Sages, the Sage Emperor.
The Emperor.
Sara’s expression changed again.
The Sage Emperor, with a special ability that can suppress her.
Likewise, the Sage Emperor was one of the three sages who rebelled with the Devil during that Holy War.
Qin Lingyu no longer looked at Sara and left the Sage Academy with Yu Xuesheng.
Sara’s face was extremely unsightly.
Suddenly—
"Hiss." A cold laugh sounded, as Norton turned his head, "Not bad, you must remember who you think you are."
His boss lady, ruthless and laconic.
He also knew what Sara’s weak spots were.
As expected, Sara seemed to be stepped on her sore spot: "Chariot! Why didn’t you act earlier?!"
Norton smiled, "What right do you have to order me?"
His dark green eyes were as deep as the sea, with indifference at the bottom.
Sara watched the man turn and leave, taking a deep breath.
Since last month, she had found many things began to go beyond her control, yet everything left no trace.
But in any case, the New Year ceremony at the end of the year must not be ruined.
This was the most crucial part for her to secure her position and gain the faith of all residents of the City of the World.
Outside the hall.
Qin Lingyu and Yu Xuesheng didn’t leave, they were still waiting outside.
Seeing Norton come out, she lifted her chin: "Well, do you still need the recipes and fitness methods?"
"No need." Norton’s expression was lazy, he touched his chin, seemingly thoughtful, "Not worse than you, anyway."
Paused, then added: "Maybe even better."
Qin Lingyu: "?"
Is this the legendary Chariot, whose combat ability ranks only below the Devil?
Something seems off.

Early the next morning.
Sinai felt her head hurt terribly, and her body was a bit weak.
She pressed her little head, muttering, "Still shouldn’t drink because I was upset."
The after-effects were a bit too much for her to handle.
Sinai glanced at the quilt on her, suddenly realizing Norton came in to cover her again last night.
Anyway, she’s a child now, her pajamas are wrapped tightly, there’s nothing to see.
Thinking of this, she felt very reassured.
After drinking a glass of water, Sinai went downstairs, pattering.
Just past the stair corner, she smelled the aroma of meat buns.
The man was sitting at the dining table, holding a book in his hand.
Today, he wasn’t wearing a white lab coat but a casual shirt.
Adding a touch of everyday life.
Sinai’s expression slightly blurred: "You—"
Norton didn’t raise his eyes, just spoke, "Eat."
The tone was still as inconsiderate as before.
Sinai didn’t think much, happily sat down by the table.
As she picked up a bun, her little head moved closer to the phone, and her expression suddenly changed: "An earthquake and tornado happened at the east gate?"
How could there be a disaster in the City of the World with sages stationed there?
"Then Ah Ying—" Sinai abruptly stood up, ready to run outside.
Just took a step, and was lifted by a hand again, placed back on the chair.
"She’s fine, better worry about yourself first." Norton put down the book, finally letting his gaze fall on her, "About yesterday’s matter—"
"What about yesterday?" Sinai took a bite of the bun, "Oh, I could only drink coffee at the research institute before, never had alcohol, not drinking again, drinking gives me a headache, also thank you for ’carrying’ me upstairs."
