"Is this the miracle you were talking about?"
In the not-so-dark night, the person who appeared was none other than Yuan Shan's teacher, Henry Campbell.
Facing his beloved student's call, the Old Man stood there with a face as calm as still water, without saying a word.
When she got no response, Yuan Shan frowned in disappointment and looked at Fu Qian.
"Thank you for watching. Not bad, right?"
Fu Qian even struck a pose as if his performance had just ended.
"More than just not bad..."
Yuan Shan murmured, her expression blank.
Was the final trick actually the Great Summoning Technique?
The two bizarre performances, combined with her teacher showing up to welcome them, had left her rationality teetering on the brink.
Unfortunately, her teacher didn't seem inclined to explain anything.
"Fang Xun?"
At last, Henry, who had been watching Fu Qian the entire time, spoke. His tone revealed nothing.
"Pleased to meet you, Old Man Henry."
Fu Qian took a few steps forward before finally replying with a smile. Behind him, Yuan Shan jolted at the words.
"How did you know? I clearly..."
She forced the rest of her words back down, unwilling to point out this strange detail.
She could already tell that her teacher was acting very strangely. This was no time to make things worse.
"Welcome to Night Holy Capital."
Henry seemed not to have heard her at all. He only gave a slight nod and offered a completely unenthusiastic welcome.
"How does it feel?"
Maybe things aren't as bad as they could be!
Fu Qian thought with a sigh as he looked up at the sky.
"Brighter than I expected. There's a bit of light pollution."
"That's just how it is here... Night is when the day truly begins."
Yuan Shan forced a smile
