Chapter 102: Xiao Yao Becomes an Apprentice (2)

This ancient inkstone was no longer a dull black but golden-yellow, with a round center surrounded by a carved five-clawed golden dragon. On the back were the characters for "Imperial Use!", and the base bore the character "Zhao".

"Is this, could this be Li Zetian's personal inkstone?" Xue Yuning asked incredulously and extremely excitedly as she looked at Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao nodded.

However, Xue Yuning still couldn't be certain of its authenticity. She needed to find her teacher to confirm it.

"Um, miss, how may I address you?" Xue Yuning asked. The receptionist had only mentioned someone was here to auction an ancient inkstone, so she had someone bring the person up, but she didn't know the name of the inkstone's owner yet.

"My surname is Xiao, the Xiao from Xiao He. My name is Xiao Yao!" Xiao Yao replied.

"Miss Xiao, please have a seat while I go fetch my teacher!" said Xue Yuning.
