Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 28: Lord Jiaruo (9)
She was stunned for a moment, and her beautiful eyebrows slowly frowned.
The young man walked up and stood behind those Xuanyun Sect masters who were at the third level of the sky. He looked lazy as if he had not yet woken up.
At this time, not only Hua Xi noticed him, most people in the square looked at the thin and handsome boy with strange eyes.
His skin was snow-white, and he looked like a childish boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. However, those masters were all tall and strong. In contrast, he looked like a little sika deer surrounded by ferocious beasts, looking pitiful.
"Who is he? Did he come to the wrong place? He looks stupid."
"He looks so weak and pitiful!"
…
After a few whispers, one of the masters made a move that made thousands of people in the square gasp.
He... half-knelt down respectfully... and whispered something in the young man's ear, and the young man nodded lazily.
The dean's face was already flushed, and he bowed 90 degrees, his voice trembling with excitement: "Your Excellency Jiaruo, welcome!"
"hiss--"
After the uniform gasps, there was the hustle and bustle of the world.
"What? Is it him? He's obviously just a kid!"
"You look so weak, not like a god at all!"
"Oh my God! God is so unfair!"
…
Just now they were full of eager admiration and wanted to kneel down and worship the legendary disciple of the Emperor. However, when they saw that he was actually a young boy, many of them were shocked and even suspected that they were being fooled!
But when he saw that those third-level masters from Xuanyun Sect were actually so respectful to him, he could only accept his fate and believe it.
Hua Xi looked at the lazy young man and was shocked beyond words.
"This is terrible..." She murmured, "I'm dead this time..."
This time, she truly experienced what it means to “don’t judge a book by its cover”.
Who would have thought that a little kid is actually the Lord Jiaruo, whom even the leader of Xuanyun Sect has to respectfully address as “World Honored One”!
She thought that even if Lord Jiaruo did not have an immortal appearance and a head full of white hair, he was at least a banished immortal!
She... made a mistake for the first time!
I felt like crying but couldn't. I didn't expect that when I first arrived in this strange world, I would offend such a big shot!
The Shuoyue family, which I thought I would offend before, is nothing compared to this person!
At this moment, Hua Xi really wanted to go up and apologize, shamelessly begging for forgiveness from His Majesty Jia Ruo...
"This is my first time at Holy Light Academy today, and I encountered something incredible."
The students were still making noise in the square, and Jiaruo's voice was slowly becoming known. He didn't shout deliberately, nor did he ask anyone to stop the students' commotion. He just spoke in a normal and normal manner.
However, his voice seemed to echo throughout the entire academy, neither too loud nor too soft, and everyone could hear it clearly.
This is already a powerful achievement, so those noisy people gradually quieted down.
One pair of eyes after another, from curiosity at first, turned into respect involuntarily.
"Just now, I felt a gentle breeze behind the academy, so I took a nap on the willow tree. Then guess what happened?"
He spoke slowly and in a childish voice, but at this moment it unconsciously carried a sense of oppression.
