CHAPTER 410: 408. WANT TO TAKE WANYAN AWAY

"I..."

Feeling the faint warmth on her face, a trace of bewildered confusion flashed through Wanyan’s mind.

She didn’t know whether she should nod, but she knew Lin Kewu must have made great efforts to reach the Profound Realm in such a short time. Hardships and exhaustion were certainly commonplace.

To have a man willing to work so hard for her, she felt very content.

"When did you learn to speak like this?" After crying, she displayed a brilliant smile.

"Spoken from the heart."

At this moment, he naturally couldn’t admit that it was taught by the Sect Leader.

Saying it would ruin the atmosphere.

"Then are you willing..." Just as she was about to ask, a faint fragrance suddenly wafted over.

Wanyan embraced him.

...

Qi Bing Academy, Inner Courtyard.

In a tall tower, a woman hurriedly walked up to the top floor and knocked on the dean’s office. On other days, the woman wouldn’t dare disturb the dean, but today was different.

The young man named Lin Kewu truly made her understand what stunning was.

Without opening the Meridian Gate, he could release fire snakes.

With the power of the Lower Profound Realm, he crushed an opponent from the Middle Profound Realm.

Everything convinced her that Lin Kewu was a rare talent, better than those in the selection contest. Her Qi Bing Academy had few spots in the selection contest, and she couldn’t afford to miss this opportunity.

Recently, she specifically asked people who knew about Lin Kewu and learned he was from Bright Mirror Lake. She immediately wanted to find the dean to offer incentives to recruit this genius who had come ten thousand miles for the selection contest early.

When the door opened, Jin Rong held the Gilded Gourd and stood by the window sipping. But when the lady spoke a sentence, Jin Rong immediately put the gourd away, "Dean, the direct disciple you’ve been looking for has been found."

"Where?"

"Right in our academy, Lower Profound Realm, one stick knocked down Hei Mei from the Middle Profound Realm..."

"Hei Mei, Elder Kui’s disciple?"

"Yes." The woman nodded.

"Let’s go!"

Jin Rong was delighted. He knew very well about Hei Mei’s power, a solid presence in the Middle Profound Realm for nearly five years. He was a standout in the Middle Profound Realm, definitely not just a sham.

To solve him with one stick, someone like this appearing in the selection contest would surely be taken by Iron Mountain Pavilion.

"Dean, I need to inform you in advance. The person can drive flames without opening the Meridian Gate, turning flames into snakes, ignoring the Lower Profound Realm even in the Body Refining Realm. Also... he just raised his hand and immobilized a Middle Profound Realm individual." The latter was what shocked her the most.

Clearly, Hei Mei’s momentum was impressive!

But with just a lift of a hand, Hei Mei seemed bound hand and foot, unable to move.

"Is there such a profound vein technique?"

Jin Rong’s eyes flickered with doubt, and his pace quickened.

However, by the time they reached the arena, Lin Kewu had already taken Wanyan and left the academy.

Out of curiosity, Jin Rong checked Linsan and the others’ injuries.

Nine were burned.

The Purity Body couldn’t withstand that scorching temperature either.

Fortunately, none of them were life-threatening. Surrounding Hei Mei, many bones were broken, and he still hadn’t woken from his coma. Whether he could survive was still a question mark.

"Dean!"

The woman glanced at Jin Rong.

Jin Rong spoke directly, "Let me know immediately when he comes again, and advise Elder Kui not to act impulsively in regard to Hei Mei’s issues."

The woman nodded.

But she could imagine Elder Kui would be very angry knowing the severity of Akun’s and Hei Mei’s injuries!

...

Night fell quickly.

On the streets of Mountain and Sea City.

Lin Kewu smiled and held Wanyan’s hand, walking side by side through the city under the night, feeling the delicate texture from her slender hand, savoring the happiness of having Wanyan by his side,

he was drunk—

Completely ignoring the looks from people around them.

Whether they envied or

jealous,

none of it mattered to him.

Thus, Lin Kewu enjoyed such a life for three days. However, he never mentioned his imminent departure because he felt the later he spoke of leaving, the better.

That evening, after escorting Wanyan back to the academy, Lin Kewu returned to the inn where Wen Ping was staying via Beast Vehicle.

When Wen Ping returned, he happened to see Lin Kewu waiting downstairs. Before he spoke, Lin Kewu quickly stood up, greeted warmly, and heartily chatted with Yang Xi and Luo Mi.

That demeanor resembled someone hitting a stroke of romantic fortune.

"Did you make a comeback?"

Wen Ping unexpectedly asked.

"Huh?" Clearly, Lin Kewu didn’t understand the words.

Wen Ping had to rephrase more simply, "Did she agree to you?"

"Yes."

Lin Kewu grinned.

But soon drew disdain from Yang Xi and Luo Mi.

"Eww—"

"Senior Brother Lin (Junior Brother Lin), that expression looks silly."

Both mocked him in succession.

Lin Kewu shot them a glance, didn’t continue the conversation, but said to Wen Ping, "Sect Leader, are we really leaving the day after tomorrow?"

"Probably." Wen Ping replied.

"Then what about Wanyan, can she join the Immortal Sect?"

"As long as she wishes."

"Thank you, Sect Leader." Hearing Wen Ping’s response, Lin Kewu’s smile widened.

...

That night, Lin Kewu left with the answer Wen Ping gave him via Beast Vehicle.

The next morning, he set off towards Qi Bing Academy with the morning light. However, he had another purpose this time.

When he met Wanyan, he held her hand, feeling very content as he led her out of the academy.

After a few sweet words, Lin Kewu spoke.

"Wanyan, would you come with me?" He was anxious, knowing he would leave in a few days, leaving Wanyan alone in this unfamiliar Mountain and Sea City without support.

Wanyan asked with a smile, "Where do you want to take me today?"

"To East Lake, you’ve always wanted to become stronger than your father, didn’t you? Come with me..." As long as she joined the Immortal Sect, her father’s skill set wouldn’t take ten years to surpass.

"To East Lake..."

Wanyan hadn’t expected Lin Kewu to say this.

She always had an answer to this question.

And that was no.

Love is important, but what she wants to pursue is also important, or she wouldn’t have come to Mountain and Sea City alone.

Seeing Wanyan suddenly silent, Lin Kewu immediately said, "As long as you come with me, leave Qi Bing Academy, I promise you’ll surpass me soon..." Just as he was about to talk further about the Immortal Sect, a voice suddenly came from behind.

"Boy, you’re showing off in my academy, injuring my disciple, and now you’re coaxing my last disciple to leave Qi Bing Academy. Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you myself?"

The speaker was Elder Kui.

A tall and thin man with bright eyes, walking like a gust of wind.

How many days he couldn’t catch Lin Kewu, today he simply watched by the academy’s entrance.

"Senior, an academy isn’t a sect; it shouldn’t have restrictions against students leaving, right?" Before Wanyan could speak, Lin Kewu immediately responded, showing an expression of calm fearlessness.

"I’m not here to discuss this today, aren’t you quite the fighter? Have a match with my disciple!"

With that, Elder Kui gestured with his hand.

A powerful Upper Profound Realm individual approached.
