Chapter 646: Leaving
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Three days flashed by in the blink of an eye.
When the morning light of the third day tore the darkness of the night apart and shone on the earth, the whole Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy was once again full of vitality. However, the atmosphere of the Academy was slightly different from the past.
Countless disciples lifted their gazes and converged at the top of the peak in the center of the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, where the silhouette of a slender and tall figure could be vaguely seen.
All the disciples had already received news that Mu Chen was about to leave Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.
Their gazes were filled with admiration and adoration as they glanced at the figure in the morning light, the most outstanding person in their Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy who had won glory for them in the Spiritual Academy Competition.
Although young people were always a little arrogant, they always showed true admiration and respect from the bottom of their hearts towards Mu Chen.
In the headquarters of the Goddess Luo Association, tens of thousands of members looked dejected. Mu Chen and Luo Li were considered the main pillars of support in their Association. Now that both were leaving, it was a severe blow to the Goddess Luo Association.
However, they also knew that Mu Chen was no longer suitable to remain at the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. He needed a larger stage to develop and perform, and the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy was too small for him.
Hence, despite feeling sorrowful, they were very understanding.
On the training ground, Ye Qingling, Yu Xi, and Su Ling’er all lifted their heads. Yu Xi’s eyes were red with tears, as she could not help but cry like a little kitten when she heard the news that Mu Chen was about to leave.
Her little button nose sniffled as tears welled up in her huge doe eyes again.
“It’s okay, don’t cry.” Ye Qingling patted her head gently as she smiled.
“Mu Chen mentioned that you would be the pillar of support for the Goddess Luo Association when he left. This is the mission he left for you, you can’t do it badly.”
Yu Xi rubbed her eyes, as she nodded solemnly.
“Don’t worry, Sister Ye, I won’t let the Goddess Luo Association down. I will definitely win the championship at the next Spiritual Academy Competition!”
“You have ambition,” Ye Qingling smiled gently before lifting her gaze and staring at the figure. She murmured in her heart softly, “Have a smooth journey, Mu Chen.”
Atop the mountain peak, Mu Chen also looked down at the enormous Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. As he registered the countless gazes directed at him, sentimental feelings of departing welled in his heart.
Behind Mu Chen, Ling Xi approached, a gentle smile blossoming on her usually calm face as she lightly and neatly smoothed his clothes.
“Now that you are leaving the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, be careful in everything you do.”
Mu Chen glanced at the beautiful face which was close to his, feeling touched by her kind words. He stretched out his arm and held Ling Xi’s slender waist, gently hugging her before swiftly letting go.
“Be careful too, Sister Ling Xi. If you meet with any danger, do give up. I promise that I will definitely rescue Mother. By then, no matter how dangerous it is, I will always protect you and Mother.”
Ling Xi’s slender figure stiffened momentarily at Mu Chen’s actions, but her eyes reddened at his words. She was touched by Mu Chen’s concern.
She nodded gently before turning to glance and smile at Nine Nether.
“Nine Nether, I was wrong before when I picked at your faults. I’m hope you don’t take it to heart.”
Nine Nether froze. She clearly did not expect Ling Xi to take the initiative to apologize to her. She was bewildered, and her pretty face was slightly flushed as she waved her hands and said, “It’s alright.”
“Please take care of him in the future,” Ling Xi said softly.
Nine Nether nodded.
“My life is linked together with his. Naturally, I won’t let anything happen to him.”
The Northern Sea Dragon and Chief Tai Cang appeared at this moment. They smiled while looking at Mu Chen.
“The Transfer Spiritual Array has been completed. It will transport you out of the Northern Heavens Continent. If you need to travel to other places, you will have to search for the major cities in the other continents and use the Transfer Spiritual Array located there.”
“Thank you so much, Elder Northern and Chief.”
Mu Chen glanced at the sky, where a huge Transfer Spiritual Array stood.
The Tianluo Continent was very far away. Without the Transfer Spiritual Array, even a Sovereign would have to spend more than half a year travelling to arrive—and that was if the journey had no obstructions.
Between the major continents, besides the vast sea, there existed all kinds of natural disasters that even Sovereigns feared. Some continents were isolated from the flow of space, and if one wanted to pass through, even the most powerful Sovereigns would find it extremely dangerous.
Mu Chen took a deep breath, and despite the longing in his heart, he did not hesitate as he turned to Nine Nether and said, “It’s almost time, let’s move!”
Nine Nether nodded in response as the two moved and appeared in the Transfer Spiritual Array.
“Mu Chen, don’t bring dishonor to the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy in front of outsiders. After all, you’re the most outstanding person in our Academy!”
