Hangu County Capital, in a small alley in Xicheng District.

It slowly started to snow again in the sky, and slowly, a thick layer had been piled up, just like laying a thick quilt on the ground. Shui Han walked home quickly with the things he had given his mother, making a "cracking" sound. Shui Han thought in his heart that he was a little late to go back this time, and he was afraid his mother was worried about him.

But when he was about to get home, he found something was wrong, because he found that the door was open, and it was not like this in normal times. And it was snowing day. Did my mother forget to close the door? Shui Han thought suspiciously, but when he walked into the yard, his breath slowly became sharp immediately, and his eyes turned blood red, because he saw a person lying on the ground. Although the man was white-haired now, how could Shui Han not recognize that he was his mother? He threw the thing on the ground and ran over to hold his mother's body. His body was trembling. When the snow was about to fall on him, he automatically avoided it and then slid down against his body.

He gently placed his mother on the ground, then took off his robe and put it on his mother, kneeled on the ground with his knees, pressed his hands on the ground, and a huge light array covered the yard. Shui Han carefully searched for each breath. Among them, there were two breaths that appeared in the yard that made Shui Han feel familiar, one was Sun Ming, and the other was very powerful. Although Shui Han had never seen his mother use magic, who else was so familiar except his mother?

"Mother, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'm the one who hurt you..." At this moment, deep self-reproach filled Shui Han's heart, and tears of regret couldn't stop flowing. After all, Mother was his only relative in the world, and this situation happened because of himself.

After a long time, Shui Han woke up a little from his confused state. He knew that he still had something to do now and he could not let his mother die in vain. Slowly, Shui Han's eyes became firm, and his hand holding the sword was getting harder and harder. Shui Han said word by word: "Sun~Ming...I won't~I will~I will~I'll let you go...you~Wait~Die~"

After saying that, he swung a sword, and with the sound of the sword, a blue sword light flashed, raising snow and dust on the ground. When the dust settled, a huge crack appeared on the ground.

...

Hangu County Capital, the central area of ​​the city, this area is the most prosperous place in the entire county capital, and some of the most luxurious mansions in the county capital are located. The best and largest one is the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion is very cautious, and I have never heard of anyone who dares to break into the City Lord's Mansion.

At this moment, in a hall of the city lord's mansion, Sun Ming was kneeling on the ground, not daring to show his anger, because his father already knew what he did. Although he didn't want to tell his father, there was no way! Relying on his own strength to deal with Shui Han? That was a stupid manifestation. You must know that if it were not for his father, Shui Han would kill him as simple as killing a little chicken. He didn't know how his father would punish him. After all, sometimes his father was very strict with him. But at this moment, what he was more afraid of was how to face Shui Han and how to face the sword in Shui Han's hand. He knew that his affairs would make his father angry, but it was better than facing Shui Han himself. His father was only one child, and he was also the city lord of Hangu County. There would definitely be a way to solve this problem.

But what surprised Sun Ming was that since his father had heard his description, he had been facing away from him and did not say a word. He just slowly stroked the cup in his hand, as if he was thinking about something. He did not dare to interrupt his father's thoughts, so he could only kneel on the ground and wait.

At this moment, Sun Yao was indeed thinking about something. Some things he felt that although he had passed for a long time, he was still vivid in his mind. He stroked the sword hanging around his waist and murmured in a low voice: "Shuiwei, you are so genius, I didn't expect your son to be so powerful. You have a good son..."

Thinking of this, he turned around and looked at his son, thinking in his heart that it would be great if his son had such talent.

"Father, I really know I was wrong this time. I will never dare to do this again next time. Please punish me. Also, I don't want to go back to the academy. That Shui Han has already broken through to the advanced magician. If..." Sun Ming said anxiously, afraid that his father would let him return to the academy again, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his father.

"Ming'er, it's not your fault this time. Maybe it's the arrangement of fate. Who can resist some things? And, maybe you're doing the right thing this time? Ming'er, you still have to go to the Magic Academy. After all, you can better improve your strength there. But what you want to go to is not the Hangu Intermediate Magic Academy, but the Water Empire Advanced Magic Academy! "Sun Yao said calmly to Sun Ming, as if he had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart.

"Water Advanced Magic Academy?! Father, you also know that although I have a good talent, there is still a gap between entering the Advanced Magic Academy. How could I get in?" Sun Ming asked in surprise. Although he really wanted to go to the Water Empire Advanced Magic Academy, he still knew how much he had. With his current strength, it was impossible to enter the Empire Advanced Magic Academy at all, but why did his father say that.

"Yeah, I'm pretty self-aware, but Ming'er, don't forget one thing. Your surname is Sun. Just based on this, you are qualified to enter the Empire Advanced Magic Academy!" Sun Yao said proudly.

Although Sun Ming was a little confused, he still didn't ask his father why, because it was not the first time he heard his father say this, and he asked his father more than once, but his father never gave too much explanation every time, just saying that he could remember that he was from the Sun family. Gradually, he stopped asking himself. Anyway, as long as the matter was solved this time, he would never go out anyway during this period. He didn't believe that Shui Han dared to break into the city lord's mansion, and he didn't believe that Shui Han could kill him in the city lord's mansion. After this time, he would leave to the Walter Empire Capital. In this case, there would be nothing to worry about.

"Okay, Ming'er, go back, I have something to deal with." Just as Sun Ming was thinking about countermeasures, Sun Yao sent his son back because he needed to confirm some things.

"Yes, father." Sun Yao bowed respectfully and then left the hall.

Looking at his son walking away slowly, Sun Yao took out a talisman and gently crushed it, and then fell into deep thought again.

A moment later, a thin figure appeared in front of him, and the figure appeared faintly. It can be seen that this person was not only of high-level strength, but also had practiced unique skills. The figure bent his body slightly and said respectfully to Sun Yao: "Master, are you looking for me?"

"Well, do you still remember the origin of this Shuihan Sword?" Sun Yao asked with the sword hanging around his waist.

"Of course I remember that this sword was obtained by a lot of effort back then, but Master, why did you ask that?" The figure replied. He naturally knew the origin of the sword, but the master called him specifically and wouldn't just ask this.

"Then do you still remember the mother and son you went to chase and killed back then? And they escaped!" Sun Yao murmured thinking.

"It was because my subordinates were not doing well in their work back then..." The dry shadow immediately knelt on one knee and said.

"I don't mean to blame you for this matter," Sun Yao waved his hand and said, "It's just that Ming'er met them today! And she is dead, but I still want to confirm whether she is dead or not. You had fought with her back then and you should understand her magical attributes. This matter will be left to you. And a reward is offered by someone, whose name is Shui Han, who is a student of Hangu Intermediate Magic Academy. You can't use your open power to do it blatantly, and entrust it to some mercenary groups. Also, next month, you escort Ming'er to the imperial capital. There is nothing to do, you can retreat first!"

"Yes, master, subordinates take their leave." After saying that, the man leaned over and bowed and slowly disappeared, disappearing in the void.

The snow in the sky is still falling, and everything in the world seems so peaceful and quiet under this snow.

Sun Yao frowned and looked at the gloomy sky outside, with a layer of haze in his heart. He always felt that something was going to happen. Maybe he was thinking too much...
