Chapter 2016: Heartfelt Reunion (2/2)

The teacher being referred by the students here was Gu Qihang with the t.i.tle of Young Monarch. This great talent was teaching at the academy right now. Even Rumination and Six-sword were completely convinced by him.

“Fairy Mei, please do it, it will be a perfect memory for our dao session today.” The students continued while she hesitated.

After seeing their enthusiasm, she smiled wryly and went on: “I can’t refuse now, can I? Excuse me if I make any mistakes then.”

“War - start with the mind in order to derive the laws, using battle to create the dao and erect the myriad laws…” Mei Suyao began spewing mantras and gave birth to the myriad laws. The pine tree was swaying back and forth as well while releasing even more purple and auspicious energy. The density was enough so it looked like there were elf spirits flying around her.

It was an impeccable speech that caused a deluge of heavenly flowers to rain down. The students were intoxicated and cheered at certain lines. The atmosphere of the peak became quite good.

“The dao of war is in the heart, not only to fight but to also serves as a deterrence. This is a peaceful art, a righteous type of dao…” She continued serenading the crowd.

“This part is incorrect.” Someone interrupted her as she was about to reach the climax.

Everyone was immersed in the speech yet this voice seemingly poured cold water all over their head. They naturally became furious. This profound dao speech was granting them great benefits so the sudden interruption ruined the rhythm.

“Who the h.e.l.l is speaking nonsense here?!” One male student angrily shouted.

They all looked back and saw an ordinary man floating up in the peak. All eyes were on him now.

“No need to hide the desire for war, fight to the very end, a dao to punish the heaven, this is the righteous path. No need for morality or peace; as long as a will to fight is in the heart, let it show!” Li Qiye spewed out mantras. Each word slammed into Mei Suyao’s dao heart like a bell.

Others didn’t know Mei Suyao well enough unlike him. He knew the things holding her back so he was solving her questions in order to light a path forward. She was quite shaken with his comments.

Of course, the people here didn’t know about their relations.h.i.+p. This public interruption was offensive in their eyes, so they became angry for her sake.

“Ignorant fool, showing your slight skill before an expert!” One of them came out and said.

“That’s right, where did this brat come from, daring to boast before our Sacred Inst.i.tution and Emperor Mansion? We need to teach him a lesson.” They looked down on him since he wasn’t a part of either cla.s.sroom.

“Junior, roll down the mountain now or I’ll break your legs!” Rumination was stirred as well, ready to kill.

He was very pleased with the events so far leading to the tea party. The dao preach was going quite well but now, this brat has ruined everything.

Li Qiye ignored them and came beneath the pine tree.

“Young n.o.ble!” Mei Suyao regained her wits and was jolted with excitement. She ran forward and embraced him.

“Looks like you’re doing well and will be able to go quite far on this path.” Li Qiye happily smiled and said.

“I’ve really missed you, it’s been so long.” She didn’t try to hide anything and hugged him tighter, not expecting to see him in this place.

After the ascension, they came to Arrogance and lost communication with Li Qiye. Though she knew that he would be fine, the absence and longing tortured her day and night.

“I miss you too, but I had unfinished business.” Li Qiye gently caressed her beautiful hair.
