The room remained silent as Yuxi didn't reply to Niao's concerned question. Niao bit her lips, waiting for her response.
Suddenly, Yuxi got up to her feet. Stretching her body, She spoke " Since the break isn't over yet. Niao, Should we do some scouting?"
"You mean the boy with the glasses?" asked Niao, still pensive over her pending question.
"There is definitely something uncanny about him. Strangely enough, I can't recall anything beside his glasses. Whenever I try to remember, the memory seems so vague."
"*Chuckle* Isn't it really fascinating that the Supreme god can't even detect a mere human's identity? Then, the human is not human at all." voiced Yuxi.
She continued glancing at Niao "Are you even getting what I am saying? Nevermind. Let's just go."
Niao nodded her head and began to walk forward with her head lowered.
*Bump*
"Ow." Niao rubbed her red nose after bumping into Yuxi's back.
She bowed deeply as she uttered "Forgive me, Master. I should've paid attention to where I was heading. You may proceed, I will follow you from behind."
Without turning around Yuxi solemnly stated " I am not disregarding your apprehensions nor your question. This is just not the right time. You are still new to this, so there are things you are unaware of. With time, you will eventually understand my words."
Niao lifted her head, staring at the back of Yuxi " I believe in Master. It's just that the black auras are something which should never be taken lightly. If it concerns Master's safety, there may come a day I may defy your words. Please, I beg your understanding in this."
"Well, I don't really mind you defying my words, However.."
Turning around, locking eyes with her, Yuxi's purple aura surged, making the room icy cold. Overwhelmed by the escalating pressure on her, Niao staggered backwards.
"If you dare to even think of betraying me, I won't hesitate to kill you myself." Her words didn't just reach Niao's ears, rather it was etched deep inside her bones.
Back drenched in cold sweat, Niao hastily kowtowed " My life is yours to begin with. You can take my life any moment you want. I will never complain. However, I ask the deity to put faith in me. I swear not to disappoint you in any way."
Retracting her surging aura, Yuxi smiled, pretending nothing happened as she spoke " Let's go. We have only fifteen minutes left." Then, she left.
Niao took a deep breath, her pale face regaining her rosy look, before heading outside.

Class 3-5
"Let's go. I heard we have braised pork for lunch."
"You can go by yourself today. I am going to see that actress Liz. I heard she is in section 2 of the same year. I saw the articles about her. Lord, the change. How can someone change so much?"
"Let me join you. I couldn't see her this morning, since I was in the restroom." A boy with black glasses said.
He continued " Actually, I didn't know I was her fan until I found out she was the anonymous Emma whose collaborated songs I listen to almost everyday. I really admire her. I want to see her and take a picture with her and show off to my-" He was cut off.
"*Tsk* Zhao Min, Haven't you heard or seen something?"
"What?"
"Go check the school forum. You need her permission to even take her pictures or you will get into a real legal sh*t. Why are you guys making such a fuss over her? It's not like she is super popular, nor we haven't had celebrities studying in our school before."
" It's simple. Even if she wasn't a celebrity, there is no denial that she is the sole heir of Zhang Corporation. Okay, Let's put even that aside, Her looks alone will knock off the current popular girl." Another one explained.
" I just can't understand why yall want to bootlick her." mocked the guy.
"Says who kisses the a** of the school director's son."
"Who said that?" He turned around to see Ji Yong sleeping with his face hidden with a comic book.
Gritting his teeth, He turned to leave. "Whatever. I am heading to the cafeteria."
"Hey Hey, Liz is coming towards our class." A boy shouted.
"Huh?" Sounds of perplexedness could be heard within the classroom. Everyone's eyes fixated at the door.
While Yuxi and Niao were strolling in the hallway.
"We have gone to the cafeteria, three other sections, still I haven't found him. Maybe he isn't in the second year. What if he is a junior or senior?" Yuxi muttered to herself.
(Master, Forgive me for asking but I am curious to know what you're gonna do after you find him?) Niao asked, watching the students gawking at them.
Yuxi stopped for a momentarily before walking again.
She replied ( I don't know myself. The only thing I am sure of is that he made my divinity stirred up. It was slight arousal but that's a big matter. It may also imply that he knows about the divinity and me. I must find him.)
Niao nodded her head realizing how grave the matter was.
"This is the last class we will be searching for today." Yuxi said as she slid the door in front of her.
There weren't everyone present in the class since it was break. Still, the ones who stayed, stared at Yuxi in amazement.
"Wow, She is so pretty. Hey, I feel hot right now, are my ears red?"
"Dude, Your face looks like a tomato right now."
"What is she doing here? Roaming around others classes. Dying to seek attention on her first day."
Immediately, Yuxi peered at the girl who made the last comment. The girl's soul almost left her body.
"I am sorry for barging so suddenly. I am new to this school. So, I wanted to see around. But, if it's not okay with you all, I will take my leave." spoke Yuxi, looking dejected.
The boys glared at the girl with fire burning in their eyes before staring back at Yuxi with a twinkling gentle look " No, We don't mind at all. Please, Don't leave."
Looking around the class, She noticed there were three boys wearing glasses. The two out of three wore black ones. 'I only need to make a simple eye contact and i will find you-'
Just as she was about to make up her mind, A boy rushed towards her.
" Liz, I am your great fan. The songs you made with Mark Wang and Vicky Li, I listen to them almost everyday. Mainly, the song 'My Love', that's my favourite. I am not saying this cause I want an autograph or something. I just wanted to say this because I truly admire you."
The boy blurted out at a quick pace worried he would get cut off by someone again.
After saying those words, he lifted his head and made eye contact with her.
*Badum* *Badum*
Yuxi's heart and divinity were pulsating speedily. She knitted her brows, she stared at the boy in front of her as she thought..
'Is he the one?'
