Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

The middle-aged witch nodded thoughtfully: "You'll stay here for the next few days. We'll report your situation to higher authorities."

After saying that, the middle-aged woman turned and left, showing no intention of continuing the conversation.

Xia Jian scratched his head, feeling like something was off.

However, compared to the scene when he first met Mu Shuang, Xia Jian seems to be able to accept it now, perhaps because he has a stronger mental fortitude.

Moreover, the other party will most likely take the opportunity to investigate his identity and background in the next few days, and there is a fear that Mu Shuang's existence will tarnish his identity record.

After all, anyone who dares to sacrifice an entire city is no good person, let alone Xia Jian himself, who is the other party's closed-door disciple.

amount……

It doesn't really count; at most, it's an object of sacrifice.

Finally, under the guidance of the front desk apprentice, Xia Jian and the others settled into guest rooms in the city lord's mansion.

…………

In the time that followed, Xia Jian did nothing but cultivate and eat and drink.

After all, it's free, and the food is all delicacies. Summer is all about getting your money's worth from the entrance fee.

During this period, Le Ning and Le Fan, due to their good talent, had passed the test of Chongguang Holy Land and were taken away by the staff of Chongguang Holy Land.

At this point, Xia Jian's mission is halfway complete.

Next is Leia. As long as Leia is handed over to Sibel, it doesn't matter whether I can enter the Holy Land of Radiance or not.

Of course, it would be best if I could join.

After all, the Holy Land of Chongguang is in the first tier in the Southern Alliance Domain. If he can acquire the knowledge within, it will be very beneficial to his future development.

…………

The waiting time was always long, and it wasn't until a week later that Xia Jian received a notification from the city lord's mansion staff.

Led by an apprentice, the three of them arrived at a magnificent living room.

Several people were already seated inside, including Sibel, whom they hadn't seen in a long time.

Compared to their last meeting, Sibelle hadn't changed much, except that she had fewer freckles on her face and exuded an unusual, sacred aura.

As Xia Jian entered, Shibel's eyes revealed a mixture of confusion and surprise.

Although she already knew that Xia Jian had become a second-tier wizard, she still couldn't help but feel a little surprised when they met again.

Back then, Xia Jian had sworn he wouldn't leave, and what was even more shocking was that this guy had actually crossed the Sea of ​​Death to get here!

Xia Jian subtly twisted the arm that Leia was holding.

Although Leia was extremely unwilling, she still pretended to run to Sibel's side and threw herself into Sibel's arms.

"Sister-in-law, it's so nice to see you!"

As she spoke, Sibel even squeezed out two pitiful tears of happiness.

Sibel was completely bewildered by Leia and sat there at a loss for what to do.

For her, her relationship with Leia was merely acquaintance; every time she saw this little girl, the girl always looked at her with hostility.

A hint of admiration appeared in Xia Jian's eyes.

These days, whoever has the thickest skin is the most powerful.

Who cares if we're familiar or not? As long as there's profit to be made, anything is negotiable.

Then Xia Jian looked at the two men and one woman in the seats.

Summer had already met the woman; she was the middle-aged witch she had encountered in the hall before.

The other two were an old man and a young man. The old man had white hair and a beard and was wearing a white robe with gold trim.

The young man looked to be around twenty years old, but Xia Jian couldn't sense any fluctuations in his mental energy. Either he had cultivated some kind of powerful concealment technique, or his strength was far superior to his.

"Greetings, esteemed sirs."

Xia Jian stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and addressed the three respectfully.

After all, he was from the Holy Land of Glory, and he didn't want to leave a bad impression.

"I am Gongsun Weifu, Shibel's master. This is Ingrid Emily, the head of the outer disciples, and this is Captain Rudolf Baldwin of the Enforcement Hall."

The white-haired old man stroked his beard and introduced the man with a kind smile.

Xia Jian looked at the three of them with some surprise. He had only come to see Xi Beier, so why were they calling him supervisor and team leader? It made him seem like he had ulterior motives.

Next, Gongsun Weifu asked Xia Jian some questions.

Xia Jian did not hide anything, because with the capabilities of the Chongguang Holy Land, his background had probably already been investigated. This questioning seemed more like a formality.

Just like during Chinese New Year in the past, when I went home, they would ask me questions like how my studies were going and whether I had a girlfriend.

"You're not here just to see Shiber, are you?"

At this moment, Rudolf, who had been silent until now, spoke up, his expressionless eyes carrying a hint of interrogation.

Xia Jian showed no outward sign of distress, but inwardly he was somewhat dissatisfied.

What business is it of yours if I'm looking for Shiber? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were interrogating a criminal.

However, from the conversation just now, Xia Jian could tell that Xi Bei'er was probably doing much better in the Holy Land of Glory than he had imagined.

"We have heard that the Holy Land of Chongguang is the strongest force in the Southern Alliance Domain, and it is naturally a place we all yearn for. Therefore, we have come here with high regard to join your sect."

Xia Jian said with a face full of admiration.

That's what they say, but in reality, Natsumi just wants to use his relationship with Shibel to get all sorts of resources from the Holy Land of Sovereignty for free.

Rudolf gave Natsume a deep look, then glanced at the other two before slowly saying, "She can join, but you can't."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian unconsciously widened his eyes.

What does that mean?

Did these people not investigate me?

I possess both advanced spiritual talent and superior dark talent. The Holy Land of Radiance isn't just a gathering place for pure light wizards, so why can't I join?

"Shouldn't we have to do some kind of test to...?"

Xia Jian was getting anxious; this made him feel like nobody wanted him.

But he was interrupted by Gongsun Weifu as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I know about your talent, but as a direct descendant of the Demon Devouring Hall, your joining the Holy Land of Radiant Light would damage our reputation and shake our position in the Southern Alliance Domain. That's not a good thing."

Gongsun Weifu looked at Xia Jian with a half-smile and said, his sharp eyes seeming to see through everything.

Xia Jian was completely baffled and didn't even understand what Gongsun Weifu was talking about.

Regardless of what the Demon Devouring Palace actually is, it involves damage to reputation and a shake-up of status. Do I really have that much power?

"Um, sir, what kind of organization is this Demon Devouring Hall you mentioned?"

Xia Jian asked with a puzzled look.

The palace-dressed beauty mentioned this name yesterday, but he had never heard of the Demon Devouring Hall.

"Kid, stop pretending. You don't actually think we can't find out your background, do you?"

At this moment, Rudolf pointed at Natsumi with an impatient expression and said.

Xia Jian looked completely bewildered.

What does that mean? Does it mean the other party knows I'm a time traveler?

Seeing this, Ingrid frowned and turned to look at Gongsun Weifu: "Has this kid lost his mind?"
