Chapter 27 (1/2)
An Zheng carried Xiao QiDao while standing at the TianQi Martial School’s door. He looked at the Refine Flowing Flame Heavy Cavalry surrounding the Illusory academy. An Zheng did not know what had happened to Ye Aunty and Mu ChangYan in the past. However, when Ye Aunty gave Xiao QiDao to him, he knew that their history had been the most touching, called, “till death do us part”.
However, what happened next was beyond An Zheng’s prediction. Mu ChangYan appeared in front of the academy freely, and Ye Aunty was next to him. The general of the Refine Flowing Flame Heavy Cavalry jumped down from his horse. He moved towards Mu ChangYang and bowed down. After that, he smiled a bit,
– “I think that you still hide in there. I had been looking everywhere for you in the Sixteen Kingdoms of You Yan many, many times, but no one would have thought that you stayed here.”
Mu ChangYan said,
– “I left the Yan Kingdom and do not have any further relations with the Yang Kingdom at all. Why did you find me?”
The general said,
– “Anyway, your family name is Mu, so you still belong to Yan Kingdom. Now, the Yan Kingdom needs you.”
Mu ChangYan pointed to the academy,
– “I belong to this place.”
The general said,
– “In comparison with the Yan Kingdom, what meaning does this place have? If you want to open a academy, you can open ten of them in the capital of the Yan Kingdom. Before coming here, the Queen Mother had told me that if you did not return, it would have meant that you were not fond of us. The Queen Mother had also said that I had to force you in coming back eventhough you had refused. You surely must have known that the Queen Mother is a decisive person.”
Mu ChangYan thought for a while, and then he said,
– “What will happen, if I am to refuse?”
The General replied,
– “Then we will totally destroy this place.”
Mu ChangYan said,
– ” The Queen Mother and I can’t match each other, and I am not her son, either. Why does she want me to come back?”
The general said,
– “Because you are the most suitable one at hand.”
Mu ChangYan thought a little, and then he replied,
– “It’s good. I will come back. However, I have one condition. All the disciples in this academy must be granted status of being able to attend the grand ceremony in the next four years of Great Yan’s Autumn Harvest.
The general said,
– “If you come back, you just need one word, and everything will be accepted, won’t it?”
Mu ChangYan said yes shortly,
– “So, I will return. But wait…”
Mu ChangYan pointed to the opposite school,
– “There are some guys who have made a bet with my academy. Each half year, we will choose our best students to compete with one another. Those who lose will be the other's servants. After I leave, this academy must not be downgraded. Men must be prestigious. Once I have agreed to bet, I cannot ignore it. No matter who will be the head of this academy, he must follow the rules.”
The general said,
– “My vice general Qiu ChangChen will stay here and be in charge of academy head. Is it fine now?”
Mu ChangYan nodded,
– “Qiu ChangChen is calm and quiet, so he can stay here.”
– “Well, let’s go!”
The general pointed to a combat vehicle behind:
– “Well G?ngz? come back.”
Mu ChangYan took Ye Aunty to get into the same combat vehicle.
In the martial school, the eyes of Xiao QiDao had turned red,
– “Bro An Zheng, doesn’t my mother care about me anymore?”
An Zheng shook his head,
– “QiDao, you must believe in one thing. Never doubt your mother’s love. Now, her choice seems to be cruel to you, but she must be broken-hearted. Your mother did not bring you with her because she has her own reasons. Moreover, you have also heard that within the next four years, we only need to win over the disciples of the academy, and then we can go to the capital of theYan Kingdom. At that time, you will meet your mother again.”
Xiao QiDao nodded strongly,
– “I will definitely try!”
The Refine Flowing Flame Heavy Cavalry left, a vice general in armor, along with thirty cavalries had stayed behind. The vice general named Qiu ChangChen looked through the academy, and then he turned back to look at the opposite martial school. When he saw the devastated school and An Zheng’s men lonely standing there, he could not help laughing and mumbled,
– “Mu ChangYan called himself Crazy Killer of the Yan Kingdom, but he had made a bet with a group of children… how interesting was he?”
In the combat vehicle, Mu ChangYan held Ye Aunty’s hands tightly, and he transmitted his voice to her,
– “I know that it’s very hard for you to accept, but your choice was correct. Once people of theYan Kingdom know that Xiao QiDao is his son, Xiao QiDao will be at risk. Now you will follow me to come back here. With my protection, they will not be able to harm you. Moreover, they don’t know of Xiao QiDao’s existence, so Xiao QiDao will be safer. Trust me! After four years, I will find a way to take Xiao QiDao to the capital.
Ye Aunty also held Mu ChangYan’s hand tightly, and her eyes were full of sorrow,
– “You and Xiao QiDao finally cannot escape from this destiny.”
In the TianQi Martial School, An Zheng took a deep breathe, and then he raised his hands up,
– “Firstly, we will clean this place up. We only have half of a year to prepare for the competion with the disciples of the academy over there. Time is limited, but we can’t lose face. We must not only win, but we must also win big.
– Let’s get started!”
Everyone was busy, and the atmosphere was very motivating. For a while, Qu FengZi drove a carriage bringing all the properties of the infirmary. He pretended to be cold and not pay attention to Qu Liu’er. However, everyone knew that Qu FengZi was just cold on the outside, but he was weak on the inside.
Although Qu Liu’re was shy, she looked very motivated. She and Qu FengZi relied on each other. Now, Qu FengZi had moved to live here, so how could she have lost her motivation?
