Elf: I asked you to take the college entrance examination, and you took out a modifier?

The entire plane was quiet at this moment. No one spoke. Only soothing music echoed in the cabin. Even the shaking of the plane stopped at this moment.

In the silent atmosphere, Yun Xiao quickly spoke, breaking the quiet air.

"Ningshuang, can I talk to you about your father?"

Yun Xiao has always been concerned about Bi Ningshuang's father, the former principal of Demon University.

On the one hand, as a student of Magic University, finding a way to help Magic University find this unpopular legendary figure is the right thing to do.

On the other hand... Yun Xiao himself has a mission to accomplish.

When Yun Xiao first accepted this mission, his strength was not very good, so he did not think deeply about this mission.

Now that he is about to achieve the quasi-king level, and today he happens to have some time to spend with Bi Ningshuang, Yun Xiao plans to ask her about the situation in more detail.

After hearing Yun Xiao's words, Bi Ningshuang's body trembled noticeably, but the expression on her face remained calm.

But Yun Xiao knew that her heart was not as calm as she looked at the moment, she just didn't express her emotions too obviously.

"What do you want to say?"

"If I may, I don't really want to discuss this topic."

"Feel sorry."

Bi Ningshuang's cold voice sounded, and her attitude was obviously much more closed than when she was discussing the healing cells of Milotic with Yun Xiao just now.

Seeing her attitude, Yun Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Forget it, that's normal. This was a huge blow to Bi Ningshuang, and it could even be said to be a psychological demon that she couldn't get over.

If he had experienced this kind of thing, he might not be able to remain calm when hearing the names of his loved ones.

Therefore, Yun Xiao could fully understand why Bi Ningshuang was so alert and defensive.

"Well, actually I don't have any other meaning."

Yun Xiao thought about it and said sincerely and softly.

He glanced out the window, a look of reminiscence on his face.

"Actually, my parents disappeared when I was very young, and I don't even remember what they looked like."

"Every time I see other students' parents coming to pick them up, I think, how nice it would be if there was a car waiting for me at the door too."

"I have never experienced a heartbreaking separation..."

"But I can definitely understand how you feel right now. You must miss him very much."

Bi Ningshuang suddenly raised her head, and her pair of light blue eyes looked at Yun Xiao quietly.

Yun Xiao continued:

"I'm bringing this up with you for another reason. I want to help you find the old principal."

Bi Ningshuang's pupils shrank and she stared at Yun Xiao for a long time, as if to make sure whether he was serious about what he said.

She slowly uttered three words.

"why?"

The place where his father disappeared is the Sahara Desert, a forbidden area for trainers and a hell on earth.

In fact, Bi Ningshuang had also tried to contact many powerful trainers who were related to the Demon King or had been in contact with her father before, hoping that they could help.

But after hearing the name of the Sahara Desert, everyone chose to refuse without exception.

The possibility of dying in such a dangerous place is greater than in any SSS-level secret realm... No one dares to joke with their own life.

Therefore, on the way to find her father, Bi Ningshuang has always been alone.

But now, Yun Xiao was sitting in front of her, telling her seriously that he wanted to help her find her father back.

Yun Xiao is definitely not a fool. With his knowledge, he must know how dangerous the Sahara Desert is.

So why should he help himself?

Chapter 228 A Request

Faced with Bi Ningshuang's three-word soul-searching question, Yun Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment, then decided to tell the truth.

"Well...you may not believe it, but someone entrusted me with this matter and offered me a huge reward."

Bi Ningshuang just looked at Yun Xiao without saying anything.

Yun Xiao had no choice but to add one more sentence;

"Of course, I also feel that it's a pity for the old principal. He is such a talented and popular person, he shouldn't disappear from everyone's sight like this."

"There is another reason. I really want to help you. After all, we are friends."

These are Yun Xiao's real thoughts. Except for the existence of the system, which he did not express directly, these three reasons are all absolutely true.

However, in Bi Ningshuang's ears, Yun Xiao's words had a different meaning.

She definitely didn't believe the first point Yun Xiao said. Even if someone wanted to find their father, they would never entrust a college student like Yun Xiao.

Although Bi Ningshuang is not good at socializing, she is not a fool without common sense.

If you want to make an excuse, at least make one that's decent, right?

But... Yun Xiao said this as if he was taking care of his own emotions.

He knew that he was strong-willed, so he used a very careful excuse and hid his true thoughts in the last, casual sentence.

Yun Xiao...

Bi Ningshuang felt speechless for a moment, with some indescribable emotions in his heart, which he had never experienced before.

...Is this what it feels like to be cared for?

Bi Ningshuang couldn't help but recall the scene of Yun Xiao reaching out his hand to her in the frost-filled room that night.

After a long while, she suddenly looked at Yun Xiao and spoke softly:

"But...what should we do? The Sahara Desert is not accessible to ordinary people. Even if one has champion-level strength, it is still unknown whether one can go deep into it."

She did not continue.

In fact, she also knew how strong a force it would take to enter the Sahara Desert.

And if you want to go deep into the desert to look for Bi Haitao, the risk of death will increase with every step forward.

What's more, there are no fewer than a dozen champions in the world.

Whether she can achieve such a level in her lifetime is still an unknown.

In fact, since the year her father disappeared, Bi Ningshuang has been working hard to become stronger, but under the tremendous pressure, she sometimes feels very tired and exhausted.

It was just this obsession of finding her father that kept her moving forward.

But in fact, Bi Ningshuang has always tried her best to avoid thinking about the final outcome of this matter.

She was afraid of giving up and despairing.

In that way, the last person in the world who could rescue Bi Haitao from the depths of the desert would also disappear.

But now, Yun Xiao offered to help her.

This forced her to face the cruel reality again.

——Even the champion dare not go deep into the realm of life and death. Even if Yun Xiao wants to, what can he do?

However, facing Bi Ningshuang's question again, Yun Xiao seemed much more relaxed.

He raised one hand, and a colorful light suddenly flowed across it.

"This is one of my powers. It can make any elf enter a peaceful and friendly state, even those legendary beasts are no exception."

"Well... but there are some limitations. If two beasts come over together, or if the target hunts humans for fun and is too strong, I'm afraid this power won't be of much use."

Yun Xiao shook his hand, extinguishing the light on it, and said:

"But besides this, I have other methods - I have a lot of great friends."

"The most powerful one among them... in our words, he is a legend worshipped by people in ancient times. For him, entering a desert should be no problem."

"I'm not saying this to imply that I'm fully confident that I can go into the desert to look for your father. After all, my current strength is limited, and those friends may not be able to help me."

"But you have to believe me, one day in the future, I will definitely help you find Bi Haitao."

"I promise."

Yun Xiao said seriously.

Bi Ningshuang stared at Yun Xiao for a long time before she suddenly spoke in a low voice:

"If...you can really help me find him, I can do something for you."

"As long as...I can do it."

After Bi Ningshuang finished speaking, she turned her head towards the window and stopped talking.

After hearing this, Yun Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.

what?

I originally wanted to talk to Bi Ningshuang about some other information about his father in order to prepare for the subsequent rescue.

How did things turn out like this?

Especially Bi Ningshuang's last words..

Is this really something she can say?

Yun Xiao also realized that the atmosphere seemed a little bit off. He coughed lightly and looked down at the information in his hand.

But his brain was working at high speed.

She is beautiful and strong... With Bi Ning Shuang's conditions... I have nothing to complain about...

No, no, is this the problem?

If I were to think about this kind of thing at a time like this, would I still be a human being?

Well...when the time comes, just ask Bi Ning Shuang to do something for you.
