“Dean Di?” Perhaps it was because Di Ruofeng’s gaze was too focused that it caused the Grand State Master to feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the Grand State Master’s tone sounded rather gloomy when he called him Dean Di.

The Grand State Master was about to get angry.

Di Ruofeng came back to his senses and hurriedly smiled in embarrassment before saying, “I suddenly came to visit in the middle of the night. I’ve disturbed the Grand State Master and Divine Master Ling Xiao. I came to ask the Grand State Master about something.”

The Grand State Master snorted indifferently and said, “Let’s talk inside.”

Di Ruofeng rubbed his nose awkwardly before walking into the living room of the manor.

When he entered the living room, the Grand State Master was already sitting on the sofa.

Seeing that Lin Jiansheng was not around, Di Ruofeng asked curiously, “Where’s Ling Xiao?”

The Grand State Master pointed upstairs and said, “His son just died. He said that he’s very sad and has been addicted to playing games these past few days.”

Di Ruofeng was speechless.

This was really too sad.

The Grand State Master was a lazy person. When no one served him, he was too lazy to eat when he was hungry and too lazy to drink tea when he was thirsty. Naturally, when there were guests, he was too lazy to make tea either.

He remembered that there was a big fridge in Lin Jiansheng’s kitchen. There should be something to drink inside. Mo Xiao got up and went to the kitchen. After a while, he returned with some drinks.

There was beer, Sprite, and yogurt.

The Grand State Master placed the beverages on the table and said, “Let’s talk while drinking.”

Di Ruofeng stared at the yogurt. His intuition told him that this thing had probably expired. “I’m afraid this yogurt has expired.”

The Grand State Master picked up the yogurt and looked at the date. It had really expired.

From the looks of it, Lin Jiansheng had bought this yogurt for Kong Qing.

The Grand State Master looked at the beer again. Seeing that the beer had not expired, he handed the beer to Di Ruofeng. “Drink it.”

“I won’t drink.” The students would be participating in the competition tomorrow. Di Ruofeng was in a hurry to rush back and couldn’t delay any longer. He went straight to the point and said, “Grand State Master, I came to look for you because I have something to ask.”

The Grand State Master reached out his slender fingers and gently pulled the ring on the beer before opening it. He drank the beer slowly and elegantly.

Di Ruofeng waited for Mo Xiao to drink the wine before carefully taking out the soul lamp.

Di Ruofeng placed the soul lamp on the table and said, “Grand State Master, take a look. This soul lamp isn’t completely extinguished, is it?”

Mo Xiao only glanced at the lamp casually and nodded. “Although the spark is very weak, it’s indeed not completely extinguished.” With that, Mo Xiao lazily opened his eyes and glanced at Di Ruofeng before asking with disinterest, “Whose soul lamp is this?”

“That little disciple of mine, Anna’s.”

After he found out that the soul lamp belonged to Anna, the coldness in Mo Xiao’s eyes dissipated a little.

He reached out and held the lamp. He leaned closer to take a look before saying, “This child is still alive.” Despite the bad situation, she was indeed still alive. Perhaps she was seriously injured and still hanging on by a thread.

“Grand State Master, I heard from my grand-disciple that the last time you helped Anna out, you came out of the abyss rift. Coincidentally, Anna and the Icy Night T-Rex I raised also fell into the abyss rift this time. Grand State Master, can you tell me what is under the abyss rift?”

Mo Xiao did not speak for a moment. There was a rare trace of fear and wariness in his eyes.

He must have thought of some bad memories because he sat up straighter.

Seeing this, Di Ruofeng was on tenterhooks.

“Grand State Master, is it really dangerous down there?”

Mo Xiao suddenly finished the beer in his hand in one gulp, then crushed the beer can before saying, “The abyss rift is actually a chaotic and hidden Time Gate. It connects the Holy Spirit Continent to another world.”

Di Ruofeng’s eyes suddenly widened. “Time Gate!” Di Ruofeng thought of something and raised his finger to point above his head. With an unfathomable expression, he asked, “Just like the Central Pagoda, through it, one can reach the Upper World?”

“It’s much more dangerous than the Central Pagoda.” Mo Xiao pondered for a moment before saying in a deliberately calm tone, “Every world has a Central Pagoda, and the Central Pagoda is a Time Gate that leads to other worlds. However, the Central Pagoda is only a clear passageway, and there are a few dark passageways hidden in every world. Some passageways will be discovered, and some have always been hidden. That abyss rift is like the Time Valley in the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion, a Time Gate in the dark.”
