Chapter 757 (1/2)

Li Xiaoyao clenched his fist, actually exhibiting a sense of determination . Li Qingshan nodded to himself . At least he did not pick up the foolishness, crudeness, and deceitfulness of his parents .

“If that’s the case, then I’ll take you with me . But whether you can become a disciple of the Sword Collection palace will be up to your fate,” Yin Xiaochou said .

“Yeah!” Li Xiaoyao nodded heavily, overjoyed . Then he looked at Li Long and felt rather reluctant to leave .

Li Long said, “Stop acting like a little girl . Study the sword properly and don’t embarrass us Crouching Ox villagers!”

“Yes, master!” Li Xiaoyao glanced at Li Qingshan again and secretly made up his mind . His talent might be mediocre, but he believed there was hope as long as he did his best .

Then Yin Xiaochou said to Hua Chengzan, “There’s no need to be reluctant to leave . We’ll set off right now! I need to enter secluded cultivation for a while once I get back to the Sword Collection palace . Once I undergo the second heavenly tribulation, I’ll definitely challenge you again, fellow- no, elder Li!”

“Alright, but you better let me draw a fine sword from the Sword Collection peak before that . ”

Li Qingshan was hostile towards the Sword Collection palace, but he could not help but admire their heritage . Both Fu Qingjin and Yin Xiaochou were elites among cultivators, possessing extraordinary bearing . Even the Soaring Dragon Elder was bold and daring . It was not without reason that the Sword Collection palace was still standing after so many years .

Hua Chengzan said, “It’s just a pity that I can’t see you off, Qingshan . ”

“You don’t need to be so polite . Until we see each other again!”

Li Qingshan clasped his hands and bade farewell, watching the three of them vanish into the horizon . He turned to Li Long and said, “I’ve troubled you for the past few years . ”

“He’s my disciple . Of course, I need to go to some trouble for him . Just what step he can reach in the future will be up to him . ”

……

Li Qingshan returned to the prefectural city of Clear River and arrived before the office of the Hawkwolf Guard . He gazed up .

Upstairs, Hua Chenglu currently leaned against her chair and gazed out of the window, thinking about something with her eyebrows furrowed . She tapped against her armrest gently with her finger .

Ever since he emerged, they had only met a few times briefly, but it did lead to a lot of ripples in her heart . However, since it was already too late, all she could do was accept this outcome calmly . She was not a little girl, much less Hua Chengzan . She would never want to become all caught up over love .

Just seeing him every now and then was fine . It was nothing even if he teased her . But now, even that would be impossible, as he was going off to the Mist province!

If they were simply parting, then so be it, but he happened to be going to the most dangerous South Sea commandery . How could she not worry for his safety?

At this moment, a familiar figure appeared outside the window and smiled . “What’re you thinking about?”

“Big brother Li!”

Hua Chenglu stood up and opened her lips, considering how to tell him this “bad news” .

“I already know where I’m being transferred to . ”

Li Qingshan stepped into the room and smiled when he saw how troubled she was .

Hua Chenglu took out the transfer order, and Li Qingshan stowed it away as soon as he took a glance at it . Sure enough, it was White Wolf commander!

“Oh right, your brother has just set off, Chenglu . ”

“Sigh, didn’t he say he’d wait for another day or two?”

“Probably because he doesn’t want something like a departure ceremony! He’s gone to his Sword Collection palace . It’s about time for me to set off too!”

Li Qingshan gazed outside the window with a smile . The sun that had just broken through the rain made the sky seem transparently blue . His heart had already drifted thousands of kilometers away . No, it had gone tens of thousands kilometers away, to the unfamiliar South Sea commandery, making him imagine the boundless South sea!

“What’re you frowning for? I’m getting promoted, so why don’t you give me a hug as a celebration?” Li Qingshan spread his arms .

“Big brother Li, aren’t you worried at all? That’s the South Sea commandery, the southwest part of the nine provinces, a land of wilderness within a land of wilderness . Not only do Hawkwolf guards possess no special authority there, but everyone is hostile to them . Even then, you’re still in the mood to joke around!” Hua Chenglu worried .

“If I don’t joke around, am I supposed to cry instead?” Li Qingshan was rather touched by how concerned she was for him .

“Go find commander Gu and get her to speak for you . Your master too . You’re a disciple of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga after all . The Sword Collection palace too . Didn’t they want you as a guest elder? Anyway, you can’t accept this assignment . Sigh, it must be that bastard Si Qing pulling strings, using his identity as a prince to do as he pleases!” Hua Chenglu fumed .

“Thank you, but I’ve already made up my mind . The South Sea commandery is indeed a land of wilderness within a land of wilderness, so it’ll definitely be filled with dangers . That’s exactly what makes it worth visiting . If I don’t go and take a look at the ends of the world, wouldn’t it be a waste of a life? As for that kid Si Qing, there’ll be plenty of time for him to cry!” Li Qingshan said firmly .

He did not take Si Qing seriously at all . All he had to do was find an opportunity to resolve this tiny grievance in the future .

“Big brother Li… After what you’ve said, even I want to go and take a look . I still haven’t seen the real ocean yet! If it weren’t for the fact that I’d drag you down, even I’d want to become a White Wolf guard and go with you . ”

Hua Chenglu was infected by his bold spirit, making all of her worries vanish . Why would this man need any worries from her? He was Li Qingshan after all .

She could not help but imagine the scenery of the South sea in the Mist province . Even since young, she had always been a restless person . She even felt an urge to go to the South sea with him without any regard anymore .
