Chapter 64: Goodbye Chang Bai (2/2)

Jian Chen’s expression also gradually grew more serious at these words.

At that moment, a light knock came from outside the door. A respectful voice rang out from outside, “Respected headmaster, Changyang Hu has been brought!”

“Enter!” The headmaster said.

The door opened, and a teacher walked in leading Changyang Hu. Changyang Hu was currently wearing a new academy uniform, but scars still clearly covered his face.

“Chang Bai!” Changyang Hu yelled the moment he walked in, he was unable to contain his emotions as he spoke with astonishment.

The teacher didn’t enter the headmaster’s office. After sending Changyang Hu in, and sending the headmaster his respects, he lightly closed the door and left.

Chang Bai’s eyes lingered onto the scar on Changyang Hu’s face, his pair of ordinary looking eyes finally revealed some fury in them. Without any other external movements, he spoke, “Eldest Master, you’ve suffered greatly.”

Changyang Hu shook his head without any mind, and said, “It’s just a bit of injury, nothing major. However, Chang Bai, why did you come to the academy?” Changyang Hu asked in confusion.

Chang Bai’s face didn’t react in the slightest, and instead said gently, ‘Eldest Master, Fourth Master, you should go pick up the rest of your things.”

Jian Chen quietly nodded without saying a word.

“I’ve already packed everything, Chang Bai, did you come to take me away?” Changyang Hu asked in a reluctant tone.

Chang Bai nodded, “Correct, I’ve come today to pick you two up and depart from the academy. It would be unwise for you two to continue living at Kargath Academy.”

Hearing this, Changyang Hu’s expression became dark. He had spent quite a long time at Kargath Academy, and had already developed special feelings of attachment towards it.

“Changyang Hu, Changyang Xiang Tian, you two should first head out, I still have a few things I want to discuss with Chang Bai.” The headmaster said.

Jian Chen and Changyang Hu didn’t have any objections, and they immediately turned around to walk out of the headmaster’s office.

Jian Chen and Changyang Hu weren’t kept waiting for long; Chang Bai came out from the headmaster’s office soon after. However, when he looked at the two, his faced changed to one of happiness.

Jian Chen and Changyang Hu followed Chang Bai down the tower, and got onto the flying-type magical beast to leave Kargath Academy. It directly flew up into the air, and began heading towards Lore City.

Jian Chen and Changyang Hu didn’t speak on the magical beast’s back. While the two were being rushed home, the both of them seemed to be extremely heavy-hearted.

Within Jian Chen’s head, he couldn’t help but to think about the motherly affections he had received. Although Jian Chen wasn’t a kid in his mind, he had never dealt with such an experience before and so this motherly affection was a new thing; so Jian Chen had a very low resistance towards this.

In Jian Chen’s mind, he could not help but recall his previous life in the Changyang household. His mother had been wholeheartedly caring towards him, and had loved him dearly every step of his life. This made Jian Chen’s frozen heart, which had never experienced a mother’s love before, become a sea of warmth, and he enjoyed and treasured this feeling.

Time quietly passed as the Class 4 Magical Beast soared through the air at high speeds and caused the wind to constantly whistle in Jian Chen’s ear. Jian Chen’s black, waist-length hair was blown messily in the air as it danced in the wind. Especially now that he had a handsome and dashing appearance, he looked as confident as ever as he rode on top of the flying magical beast with ease.

The flying magical beast crossed over many different villages and cities under the guise of the pitch dark skies. After a few hours of flying a thousand kilometers above the ground, they finally arrived at Lore City.

Under the control of Chang Bai, the Eagle Beast descended onto the grounds of the Changyang Mansion. The servants who managed the rear courts had long since left the area, leaving behind only the most loyal of guardsmen.

A large gust of wind descended upon the courtyards as the Eagle Beast came down from the skies and landed onto the ground as the three males climbed down from it.

A group of people had already gathered around the Eagle Beast with a middle aged man wearing a black and white Pao leading the group. This was the master of Changyang Mansion and the father of Jian Chen–Changyang Ba. By his side were four very beautiful women– Jian Chen’s mother Bi Yuntian and his three aunts. Standing by his fourth aunt’s side was a girl who looked to be around 18 years old. This was his 2nd sister he hadn’t seen in a few months–Changyang Mingyue. Standing right next to her was another person who looked to be around Jian Chen’s age; it was Changyang Ke, his third brother. However, in Changyang Ke’s eyes was a look of mirth as if he was happy to see Jian Chen in such misery after leaving Kargath Academy.

Standing behind the family were a few middle aged men and elders, they were high ranking members of the clan, but each one of them had a grave expression on their faces as they looked at Jian Chen with a complicated stare. Some looked at him with happiness, others with an expectant expression, and some who just sighed.

Chang Bai walked towards Changyang Ba and gave a small smile, “Clan leader, I have not failed you. I have brought the eldest master and fourth master back home safely.” He stated.

Changyang Ba looked at Chang Bai and clasped his hands together, “Chang Bai, thank you very much for your trouble.”

“Clan leader is being too courteous, this is just part of my duty.” Chang Bai said.

Changyang Ba swept his gaze across Jian Chen and Changyang Hu. His eyes held both expressions of gratification and admiration as he looked at Jian Chen, and his expression had also become excited, although it was still nevertheless worried. Finally, he let out a long sigh and said, “Xiang’er, Ah Hu, both of you come with me to the main hall.” Changyang Ba turned around and began to walk out.
