The old village chief did not say anything, but Su Han’s heartfelt words made him calm down.
The reason why he chose to leave was not only because of Xiao Yu’er, but also because he saw the future. If there were forces constantly coming to look for the future emperor, then the village would never be at peace, there would be more and more people like Uncle Motor who would be affected and die.
He was clearly only thirteen years old, yet he could have such deep considerations and breadth of mind. The village chief felt a wave of gratification in his heart.
“I really didn’t expect that I, Mage Bai Shan, who has walked the continent for a hundred years, would actually receive a disciple like you!”
“Xiao Han, you’ve convinced me.” The village chief looked at him deeply.
Su Han said in surprise, “Teacher...”
His rough hand took out an object from his pocket and threw it at Su Han.
Su Han reached out and took the object that his teacher threw at him. It was a token that was completely carved out of a purple crystal.
In the middle, there was a magic pattern as a pen with the word ‘Emperor’ engraved on it.
“This is...”
“This token has been in my hands for decades. I’ve never given it to anyone else. I’ll give it to you today.”
The old village chief turned around and slowly moved his wheelchair towards the village.
“Bring it and your sister to the Northern Saint Laurent City. Find the president of the Mage Association and tell him that you’re from the land of the White Mountain. He’ll naturally settle you down. If he doesn’t open his eyes, take out this token and show it to him.”
“Saint Laurent City is the border of the human race. It is the most suitable place for you to live.”
Watching the village chief leave, his back seemed particularly lonely. Xiao Yu’er rubbed her red eyes and hugged her brother’s arm, holding back for fear that she would cry.
Su Han clenched the token in his hand, gritted his teeth, and shouted in the direction where the village chief had left, “Teacher, after I make a name for myself, I will definitely bring Xiao Yu’er back to see you and make you the best wheelchair! I promise!”
The village chief looked back from afar. His eyes seemed to be a little moist. He smiled faintly and said, “You little brat! If you leave, don’t come back again!”
The darkness quietly enveloped the village.
When the first rays of light in the east lit up, the people of Leiluo City dragged their exhausted bodies back to the small village.
The people of Leiluo City searched for Vivian in the forest for a few days. In the end, Vivian found them, but Vivian did not tell them about the attempted assassination.
“Teacher.” Vivian led the people to the village chief.
Vivian looked at the village chief in the wheelchair expressionlessly and said, “You have lived in seclusion in this place for more than ten years. I always thought that you were disappointed because of the rebellion back then, so you chose to leave.”
“But now it seems that the reason why you have been staying in this place for more than ten years is probably because of the Prince.”
The village chief smiled and picked up the teacup. “Vivian, you are becoming more and more suspicious now. You even dare to speculate about your own teacher.”
Vivian said faintly, “Isn’t that so? But now the Prince has grown up. His strength has even grown to the point that even I feel that it is difficult to deal with him. You Don’t have to protect him anymore. Leave him to me and let him return to the Imperial Capital with me. The course of history will be back on track because of him.”
The village chief smiled faintly and said, “Have you seen her?”
Vivian said expressionlessly, “Yes, and I can basically confirm his identity.”
She suddenly turned her head and walked out of the door.
“In fact, he has always lived in the village, hasn’t he? If not for your guidance, how could a teenager have such terrifying strength?”
She sneered and said, “Who would have thought that my little junior brother is the son of the First Prince and the Oracle!”
“Su Han!”
She suddenly turned around, her eyes full of certainty.
The village chief spat out a mouthful of tea.
Vivian saw the shock in her teacher’s eyes and became even more certain. She said expressionlessly, “I’m right, aren’t I?”
The village chief wiped the tea off his face with a strange expression. He did not expect his thoughtful and intelligent female disciple to actually treat Su Han as the child of the Oracle. Obviously, a lot of things must have happened.
However, this was also good. In this case, other than Xiao Han and himself knowing that the real future emperor was Xiao Yu’er, no one else would know.
In that case, everyone’s attention would be focused on Su Han, and he would certainly take all the setbacks for his sister.
Before the Oracle died, she had left her last words. She did not want her daughter to be involved in the power struggle of the empire.
The village chief sighed and said, “You can think whatever you want... But...”
At this moment, a warrior came in from outside the door and said, “Lady Vivian, we just sent people to the outside of the village, but we did not find the Su siblings.”
Vivian suddenly turned her head and looked at the village chief who was pretending to drink tea with an angry expression.
“You hid him!?”
The village chief frowned and said, “I’m a disabled person. Aren’t you slandering my innocence out of thin air?”
Vivian’s chest heaved violently. She suddenly turned around and took out another ring that was very similar to the Eternal Light ring from her interspatial ring.
“Fortunately, I have a trick up my sleeve,” Vivian muttered, “Your Highness, you wouldn’t have thought that no matter where you go, as long as you still wear the Eternal Light ring, I will be able to know your location at any time.”
