The Master's Mask Unveiled Again-Chapter 221 - 220: A Rare Species Like a Deity
Chapter 221: Chapter 220: A Rare Species Like a Deity
Xiao Qimo’s presence was overpowering.
The air around him seemed to freeze, and the man on the ground, clutching his stomach in pain, could hardly open his mouth, but still he struggled to explain, “Don’t misunderstand, it wasn’t you…”
With every few words, a taste of blood surged up in his throat.
Having witnessed this man’s ruthlessness before, the trembling of his body was nothing compared to the trembling in his heart.
He could only desperately explain that his target was not him, no!
Xiao Qimo elegantly adjusted his tie, far from being appeased, his coldness intensified; he leaned forward slightly, with a voice low and hoarse, pressing the man on the ground.
“Who sent you?”
His voice was calm and quiet, yet it carried an earth-shattering murderous aura that spared no creature in its path.

The man on the ground closed his eyes, resigned to his fate.
“Heh…” Xiao Qimo knew he would get no answers. He patiently and gracefully folded up a white handkerchief, stored it away, and then left with unhurried steps, as if nothing had ever happened.
After opening the door of the equipment room, a young man in black stood outside, his face expressionless.
His presence was so faint that if he wasn’t there standing before you, you wouldn’t notice him at all.
He was one of Xiao Qimo’s Shadow Guards, Mo Nie.
Mo Nie was the one who had accompanied Xiao Qimo to the icy lands of Beichuan.
Mo Nie nodded respectfully towards Xiao Qimo, “My Lord.”
“Clean this up,” the man’s voice was devoid of any emotion. Having said that, he walked away with a somber gait, as though nothing had occurred.
Mo Nie respectfully watched him leave, then turned his head to look back towards the depths of the equipment room with a hint of puzzlement.
How rare; Lord Mo had actually taken action himself this time.
All just to protect those two girls?

Lu Mian left the equipment room, and after the surrounding classmates showed their concern for a while, they dispersed.
Su Luo wanted to say something but stopped, and with people by her side, she swung her ponytail and walked away.
Pang Hao and Shouhao gathered around her, clicking their tongues in astonishment.
“The atmosphere in our class has been quite good lately!”
“Who wouldn’t want to hold such thick legs?”
“They were too blind before! Someone divine like Brother Mian should have been treasured long ago!”
“Exactly! If I spoke out about all the things Brother Mian has done…” Pang Hao chuckled, “it would scare them to death!”
These two were real treasures, able to chatter endlessly anywhere they went.
Even though both were well aware of Lu Mian’s fighting capabilities, when Su Luo said there was danger in the equipment room, they still instinctively rushed over with others to find Lu Mian.
Lu Mian just listened quietly, her heartbeat still not back to normal, somewhat in chaos.
“Brother Mian, have you noticed…” Shouhao stroked his chin, “Director Qimo often appears near our class?”
“Hmm…” Lu Mian uttered softly, recalling seriously, and then nodded, “Indeed, he does.”
He always pops up unexpectedly, and there are always various plausible excuses.
“Why though?” Shouhao wondered.
Lu Mian was equally puzzled, “Yeah, why is that?”
She kept talking to herself, not expecting any answers from them, walking further and further away as she did.
Shouhao suddenly grabbed Pang Hao, “Did you notice? Both Brother Mian and Director Qimo are acting strangely! What’s the reason for that?”
This time, Pang Hao was calm, smiling mysteriously, “Because… love!”
“Ah!” Shouhao gasped, excited and somewhat sleazy, “You mean Director Qimo and Brother Mian? But, that’s completely impossible!”
“No! No! No!” Pang Hao grew even more mysterious.
