Chapter 2111: Setting Off (1/2)

These feelings made Jinsheng stay to teach at the academy. Though he was only one step away from being an Ancient G.o.d - a being with boundless future, he still made up his mind to do the right thing.

Li Qiye smiled and said: “Everyone was arrogant once. The academy is worthy of your effort and the future certainly won’t be easy. Having a capable combatant like you is worthy of celebration.”

This decision has made Jisheng much happier and smiled, recalling when his fiery self spewed out aggressive words against the teachers and left the academy. Now, this was a type of fate, becoming a teacher and dealing with students in his old age.

“And you?” Li Qiye looked at Goldloop.

He scratched his head and smiled wryly: “Haha, I do want to stay with the old geezer as my backing, but alas, I still have the old and young waiting for me back home so I have to come back and take care of them.”

He was different from Jinsheng and had a responsibility to strengthen his clan. He had found their lost manual so it was time to return and lead.

“Go now, a descendant of the w.a.n.g should go back.” Li Qiye casually gave him several treasures.

Goldloop was surprised to see the gifts and performed a full kowtow: “Thank you, Teacher.” [1]

His clan was in decline so a revival would take a very long time. These treasures were akin to a firepit in the winter; it was perfect and crucial.

“Don’t let me down now.” Li Qiye nodded and accepted the ceremony.

After finis.h.i.+ng the bows, he finally got up with a happy heart and went to the side.

“Xinxue, what about you?” He also liked this timid girl, recalling a different old friend.

“I…” She glanced at Li Qiye then at the other two, not knowing what to say.

The other two came to the academy with an agenda unlike her. She came to read and learn as an ordinary student, a purer intention. She didn’t know what to do now since she would be the last one here at Study Room.

“I don’t know… I’ll probably just keep on reading.” The second sentence had another meaning. Though she came from a powerful clan and was the oldest daughter, she didn’t get along with her family and wanted to drown in the books at the academy.

Thus, she wanted to stay at this library after graduation, far away from the trouble and complication of life.

“That’s fine, I’ll tell the academy to let you stay here after graduation.” Li Qiye nodded.

“Really?” She became ecstatic. An ordinary student like her couldn’t just stay at the academy after graduation. Only the excellent ones had this option, so this was amazing news.

“Haha, little girl, congratulation, your dream is becoming true.” Goldloop laughed heartily.

She immediately gave Goldloop and Jinsheng a hug. Even the old man was smiling since he saw her growing up and was sort of a senior to her. She almost hugged Li Qiye too but quickly stopped after remembering his ident.i.ty.

He gave her a quick embrace and smiled: “Try your best, little one, I’m sure you will be successful in this.”
