Yu Huang was amused by them, and she temporarily forgot the worries in her mind.
She tapped her fingers on the steering wheel and said worriedly, “This is my first birthday with Dad. I didn’t even have time to prepare a gift.”
Then, Yu Huang glared at Sheng Xiao accusingly. “It’s your fault.”
“I’ve been too busy recently. If the butler didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten.” Sheng Xiao reflected on himself and realized that he hadn’t done his best as a son.
“Is there anything Dad likes?” She had to give him what he liked. Yu Huang wanted to prepare a suitable gift for Sheng Lingfeng.
Sheng Xiao said, “Father likes to collect brushes.” Not only was Sheng Lingfeng the president of the Alliance, but he was also the number one calligrapher in the Divine Moon Empire. When he was young, he even participated in a few calligraphy competitions and got first place every time.
Sheng Lingfeng loved to collect brushes and ink the most.
Yu Huang laughed and said, “I heard that dragon whiskers are excellent pen materials.” Yu Huang freed her right hand and touched Sheng Xiao’s neck. She joked, “Brother Xiao, why don’t you lend me a few of your dragon whiskers?”
Sheng Xiao thought, “How cruel.”
When Sheng Yang heard Yu Huang’s words, she chimed in, “Brother, if you love Yu Huang, give her a few dragon whiskers!”
Sheng Wuque looked at Sheng Xiao encouragingly.
Sheng Xiao was stared at by three pairs of bright eyes. He felt pressured. “Then… be gentle.”
Yu Huang was joking. How could she bear to cut the dragon’s whiskers? “When we return to school later, I’ll ask to see who has high-grade ink in their collection.”
“Sure.”
The car couldn’t drive under the Black Dome Mountain. Yu Huang put away the car and brought Sheng Yang and the others to climb towards the Holy Spirit Academy at the top of the mountain.
The poisonous gas in the Black Dome was still thick. Sheng Yang’s cultivation level was low and she couldn’t resist the invasion of the poisonous gas. She could only use her spiritual power to resolve the poisonous gas.
Therefore, she had a hard time climbing.
When the first ray of dawn shone on the peak of the Black Dome, Yu Huang and the others finally reached the top. Sheng Yang was panting. She looked up at the door in the middle of the city wall that had the words “Holy Spirit Academy” written on it and couldn’t help but complain, “This door isn’t even as grand as the door of the nursing home.”
“This is nothing.” Yu Huang pushed open the school gate and led Sheng Yang and Sheng Wuque into the school. She stepped on the bumpy field and opened her arms to say to Sheng Yang, “Welcome to the Holy Spirit Academy!”
When Sheng Yang and Sheng Wuque saw the bumpy field under their feet, their expressions became strange.
Was this the Holy Spirit Academy?
The legendary number one academy on the continent?
In the fantasies of the students of the Divine Realm Academy, the Holy Spirit Academy must have been built very gloriously and loftily. It should have been floating in the sky above the Black Dome, just like the Caro Clan’s sea island. Around the Holy Spirit Academy, there must be layers of white clouds lingering. There must be high mountains and flowing water in the school, and there must be a galaxy of stars in the sky. The school building must be built like a castle. The dormitory building must be as bright and imposing as a seven-star hotel. The students must wear custom-made silk suits.
In short, it must be extremely good.
It definitely shouldn’t look like this!
Looking at the field filled with weeds and sharp stones, then at the shabby school building, they thought, “How could this be the might of the number one academy on the continent?!”
Sheng Yang felt especially disappointed.
She suppressed the disappointment in her heart and turned to ask Sheng Xiao, “Where are Sheng Zhou and the others?” Being able to see Sheng Zhou, whom she had missed for a long time, would bring Sheng Yang some comfort.
Sheng Xiao said, “At the back of the mountain.”
After knowing that the Holy Spirit Academy had a back mountain, Sheng Yang and Sheng Wuque perked up again.
Perhaps the back mountain was the real Holy Spirit Academy.
With that expectation, Sheng Yang and Yu Huang followed Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang to the back mountain. When they saw the narrow iron door leading to the back mountain, Sheng Yang couldn’t hold back her smile.
She had a bad feeling.
This back mountain might not be as beautiful as she imagined.
With a creak, the iron door opened, revealing the back mountain.
It was a bare black mountain filled with dense poisonous gas. A group of young men and women in sportswear were moving a kind of black brick. They were building a house, and they looked like workers on a construction site!
Sheng Yang recognized Sheng Zhou at a glance, and her expression instantly stiffened.
