Kapitel 173: Eli

The door of the Great Serpent Cultivation School opened, and two figures stepped out from the island behind.

"I can find my way out from here," Apollo said, turning to the person beside him. The young man looked around 16 or 17 years old, with umber-colored hair, black eyes, and an average face. He wore the black and white uniform, but this particular one had three blue lines on the collar that extended onto the shoulders.

"Are you sure, Senior Brother Yoma?" Eli asked, staring at the 'kid' in front of him with mixed emotions. His tone was awkward, but he forced himself to sound natural.

"Of course," Apollo replied, pointing towards the gate a dozen meters away. "I just need a minute or two of walking straight, and I'll be out. Don't worry—I won't get lost."

"If that's the case, then I'll stay here and watch you walk out," Eli said with a determined voice.
