Chapter 2110: Bidding Farewell (1/2)

The figure seemed to be becoming one with the pond, or perhaps the entire planet.

“I need a very long period to create my body again.” The girl’s voice came from the pond. The figure and its spirituality were now gradually disappearing from the cloth.

“If that’s the case, I’ll be leaving then. I have carried out my promise, you will have to do your part in the future.” He chuckled and said.

“Hmph, I can keep my words.” The girl snorted, seemingly unhappy with his att.i.tude.

“Good.” He nodded and turned to leave.

“My name is Long Xiao. Remember well and do not call me a little girl the next time we meet.” She called for him.

“My name is Li Qiye, I’m sure you won’t forget.” Li Qiye smiled and left.

After he was gone, the cloth was at the bottom of the pond and the figure finally disappeared completely. Who knows what would be born here in the future?

Li Qiye didn’t wait for the dragon and tiger and went back to the academy by himself. They didn’t need him to wait for them either. This pertained to their races’ origin, so they needed to rely on themselves. He had already carried out his end of the bargain.

He called for Yao Ting after returning because he was about to leave. Nevertheless, he was still worried for this little girl.

She was quite awkward after seeing him, not knowing where to place her hands and didn’t even dare to look straight at him. This was completely reasonable.

Who in the academy right now wasn’t scared in front of him? She knew that this was a supreme existence respected even by the emperors. It was as if this was a dream - a little character like her couldn’t get close to an emperor or an ancestor of the academy, let alone a being of this level.

She was actually calling him “Dao Brother” a while ago. This made her have cold chills when thinking about it. Luckily, Li Qiye was nice enough not to care.

Her restrained appearance made him smile while thinking about a long-gone friend.

“Sit down.” He waved his sleeve and told her to stop being so reserved.

She quietly sat down without speaking, head lowered. Just being able to sit before a supreme existence was a great honor.

“What will you do after graduation?” Li Qiye asked.

She didn’t expect this question despite thinking about the answer a thousand times before.

“Hmm…” She hesitated, not knowing her direction just yet: “I’ll, I’ll probably go back to the village.”

In fact, she didn’t know what else to do besides going back home. She wasn’t like the other students from the great powers. They had a clear goal after entering the academy and would go back to serve their sects and kingdoms.

Her cultivation journey was one of coincidence so she had no future aspiration. She was one of the better graduates and had plenty of potential so many other great powers would want to recruit her.

Alas, due to her lack of ambition, she didn’t want to join these great powers for more room to grow in the future. Though her tiny village couldn’t compare to the great powers, it was still her home - a place where she could feel warmed.

“That’s fine too, no place in the world is better than home, a place worthy of your love.” Li Qiye said softly.
