Inside the room, after Su Mo returned, he continued meditating, preparing to further comprehend the Profound Meaning of Devour.
However, he had only just sat down when a knock sounded at the door. Mu Li had arrived.
"Mentor Mu Li, please come in!" Su Mo opened the door and gestured for her to enter and sit.
"No!"
Mu Li shook her head. Her face was filled with loneliness as she gazed at Su Mo and said, "You Tianhan, thank you for this time. Return to the Divine Martial Academy!"
"Why should I return?" Su Mo asked in a low voice. Though he asked aloud, he had already guessed what she was thinking.
"I don't want you... to throw away your life because of me!" Mu Li said solemnly.
"Mentor Mu Li, rest assured! I have ways to preserve my life!"
Su Mo smiled faintly and added, "Besides, there is no need for you to worry. Tomorrow, I will resolve this matter for you once and for all!"
"Th-this... do you really have a way?" Seeing Su Mo's confidence, Mu Li felt uncertain and doubtful.
She truly could not understand what confidence You Tianhan possessed.
"I have a way, so just put your mind at ease!" Su Mo nodded solemnly.
"Very well. Then tomorrow, I shall see how you resolve it." Mu Li sighed. She could only hope that You Tianhan truly had a way.
Of course, although she did not know You Tianhan very well, she also knew he was not a mindless fool. Since he was unafraid of danger and spoke with such certainty, perhaps he truly had a solution.
"Mm." Su Mo nodded lightly.
Then, Mu Li took her leave and went to another room in the courtyard.
Su Mo then continued comprehending the Profound Meaning of Devour.
