Chapter 988 Leila's Mentor
Mona turned around and tried to run, but Jing Fantian caught her.
"Why are you panicking? We are old acquaintances meeting. Can't you spend more time with us?"
Mona opened Jing Fantian's hand and said, "Who are you and I? My current position is a sage of the Shenglun School. I have to teach those students about the knowledge of the starry sky."
Jing Fantian said generously: "How much does it cost for the astronomical equipment you broke? I will compensate you."
Hearing this, Mona's eyes lit up and she was no longer anxious.
"I almost forgot that you are the lord of the Stratum Chasm and the son of the God of Wealth."
Mona grabbed Jing Fantian's sleeve and said, "A few hundred billion Mora is just a piece of cake for you. Come on, I'll take you to the Finance Department of the Ministry of Education."
Jing Fantian was startled: "Mr. Duo?"
Mona said, "About 300 billion. The astronomical device was the treasure of the former great sage Azar. He didn't have time to move it away when he defected."
Jing Fantian quickly grabbed Mona's hand and said, "I suddenly forgot that my Layered Rock Abyss was destroyed by my mother, and I am still burdened with trillions of Mora debts."
"so……"
Jing Fantian’s meaning was very clear, we were all in trouble together, so we should stop making things difficult for each other.
Mona's expression suddenly turned cold, and she pouted at Jing Fantian: "Why are you wasting my time when you have no money? You can't even afford to support me now."
Jing Fantian pointed at her and said, "Go and teach quickly. As a people's teacher, you must remember your responsibilities."
Mona pointed back: "You are so arrogant even though you have no money. You are so carefree even though you have such a huge debt."
Finally, he pointed at Ni Lu and Jing Fantian who were holding hands and said, "What kind of bullshit romantic love story are you still talking about? Go make some money. Are you going to let your lovers starve to death with you?"
Jing Fantian glared at Mona angrily. Mona was frightened and quickly ran towards the Minglun School's academy, not forgetting to make fun of him.
"Stinky dragon, I curse you to be a pauper for the rest of your life."
Mona wasn't paying attention as she ran and suddenly bumped into a girl.
Mona hurried to help the girl she bumped into, apologizing a little sheepishly: "Sorry, sorry!"
Mona was surprised and said, "Laila, my silly student, why is it you?"
Leila was wearing a black and white backless short dress with a blue ribbon tied around her waist and an ice-blue Eye of God inlaid on her back.
She has a pair of golden eyes, often with dark circles under her eyes, and always looks tired.
Her hat was also mistaken for a nightcap, and she always looked dazed.
Being bumped, Leila thought it was her carelessness: "Sorry, mentor, I'm too sleepy and blocked your way."
Mona touched Leila's head and said, "Little guy, didn't your instructor reduce many of your assignments? Why do you still look so sleepy?"
Leila shook her head with big circles under her eyes: "I don't know, I have done a lot less research, but I still feel mentally exhausted."
Mona stroked her chin and thought for a while: "I heard that you have completed all the projects recently, but I only asked you to choose 10 out of 5 projects."
Leila said puzzledly: "But I only completed three projects."
Mona smiled and rubbed Leila's head: "It may be the fault of your second personality! While you are sleeping at night, your second personality gets up to complete the project."
Leila was a little frustrated: "Compared to my other self, I am really useless. I haven't even completed the assignments my tutor gave me."
Mona comforted him, "No, the second personality is also you, Leila, don't deny your own excellence."
Jing Fantian and others came over and recognized Leila.
Jing Fantian seemed to have heard something. He glanced at Leila and then at Mona.
"Mona, are you Leila's mentor?"
Mona nodded: "Yes, Leila is the most talented student of Minglun School, and only she can become the successor of my Shuizhan School."
"Shuizhanmen?"
Jing Fantian was puzzled. He had heard of the Zhongmen and the Fumen, but had never heard of the Shuizhanmen!
Mona explained, "It's a form of divination. The divination the old woman and I use is water-based astrology. Although Leila is not of the water attribute, ice and water are inseparable."
"Leila's ice can replace the water mirror to reflect the illusion of fate. Besides, ice is clearer than water."
"Who knows, Leila may surpass me and the old woman in the future."
Leila blushed a little and waved her hands in shame: "No, no, I don't have the same talent as my mentor. I will be happy even if I can only inherit one tenth of my mentor's divination."
"Leila, I've told you so many times, don't underestimate your talent."
"But, but I think the mentor is the greatest astrologer."
"No, no, I'm not. The old woman is. But the divination has been a little murky in the past two years."
"The old woman sent a letter saying it was because of a dragon. The dragon was like a stone blocking the water, because its future flow was changed."
"And as the dragon grows stronger, the rocks in the river will grow larger, and eventually the river will be blocked, hindering the future."
Mona said this meaningfully, and then turned her gaze to Jing Fantian.
"The old woman didn't say who it was, but I guess it must be you, the great evil dragon."
Jing Fantian spread his hands helplessly: "You mean I'm hindering the development of your astrology."
Mona shook her head: "That's not what I meant. I'm afraid only an old woman's ability can see what the future will be like."
"I once wrote to him and asked him what the world would be like without you."
"The old woman's answer is despair. Without the changes you have brought, many people would become despair."
"The old woman also pointed out that I have no connection with the Order, and I don't have any master-disciple relationship with Leila, but because of you, our destinies are chaotically connected."
"I like being in the Order House and having a well-behaved disciple like Leila."
Mona started laughing as she spoke: "I think what makes me better than the old woman is that I have trained a well-behaved apprentice. Leila won't scold me behind my back."
Leila responded: "The mentor is the person I respect the most, why would I scold him?"
Mona touched Leila's head. Even though they were of similar age, she treated Leila as a junior who needed care.
Just like that hundred-year-old guy from the Zhilun School, he gives people a vague sense of age.
The old thing said that she was over a hundred years old and preached to everyone in the tone of an old senior, even though she looked and acted like a young person.
Maybe they like the power of old guys to lecture young people!
Leila retreated behind Mona, pointed at Jing Fantian and asked Mona in a low voice: "Teacher, he...he is His Highness Fantian?"
Mona smiled and said, "Yes, he is the big evil dragon of Liyue. Leila, you are too slow to react. It seems that you did not get enough rest."
Leila looked at Jing Fantian with some fear, comparing her previous impression of Jing Fantian.
He has no horns or tail, and has grown so tall. How can we connect him with the former dragon boy?
Jing Fantian gave Leila a kind smile: "Leila, long time no see."
Leila hurriedly greeted him dazedly: "Long time no see, Your Highness."
Mona pulled Leila to go to class.
"Come on, Leila, we're going to class."
Jing Fantian followed with some curiosity: "Mona, can we audit the class? I'm curious about what you look like in class."
Mona was puzzled: "What's there to be curious about? Aren't they the same as everyone else?"
Leila praised: "The instructor is very gentle and never hits or scolds students. He teaches like a friend. Everyone likes to listen to the instructor's lessons."
Jing Fantian smiled and said, “Then I am even more curious.”
