Chapter 252: Departure

"Cough." As Xiao Ming examined the scroll, Xiao Yan coughed slightly before slowly opening his eyes.

"You're awake?" Noticing Xiao Yan's movement, Xiao Ming stored the High-Level Alchemy Inheritance in his Star Ring.

"Ah... what happened here?" Xiao Yan, who had just woken up, had a slightly dizzy head and his entire body ached. He only felt a little better after taking out a healing pill from his own storage ring and drinking it.

"The Hall of Souls Protector has been defeated. You should run away now while the Misty Cloud Sect doesn't have time to take care of you. It's not safe for you to remain in the Jia Ma Empire. Perhaps you can search for your two older brothers first."

Hearing Xiao Ming's words, Xiao Yan finally remembered everything and hurriedly looked around but did not see that familiar figure.

Xiao Yan's body suddenly froze before he raised his head and stared at Xiao Ming. His voice trembling as he asked, "Where is my... my Master?"

"He's gone." Replied Xiao Ming dryly.

"He... is... gone?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan seemed entranced, as if he could not accept it.

"What do you mean by... gone?"

"He's dead." Xiao Ming said bluntly.

"Dead...!" At this moment, Xiao Yan's pupils shrank fiercely.

"IMPOSSIBLE! My Master is incredibly strong; how could he die?! You must be lying to me, right!?"

Seeing Xiao Yan refusing to accept reality, Xiao Ming shook his head before saying.

"It's your choice to believe me or not. But understand that I have no reason to lie to you. You must descend the mountain now while Misty Cloud Sect is busy and has no time to bother with you."

Looking at Xiao Ming's serious expression, Xiao Yan froze for a moment before finally accepting reality. He then asked with extreme anger, "Didn't you say you would protect me and my Master-?!"

"Hey, I didn't say that." Xiao Ming directly interrupted Xiao Yan. "I only said that I would make sure you left the mountain safely. As for Venerable Yao Chen, he was not within my range of protection."

"..." Xiao Yan gaped at the reply. His scarlet eyes stared at the Bone Flame Ring for a moment before he shouted again, "Tell me how my Master died and what force is behind the person shrouded in black fog!"

Since Xiao Yan's Master had just died and he himself was in a good mood since he had just obtained the high-level alchemy inheritance, Xiao Ming chose to overlook his brusque tone.

"He was swallowed by Protector Wu of the Hall of Souls with a secret technique." Xiao Ming replied.

Xiao Yan, who had received the answer, walked away.

Looking at Xiao Yan's back, Xiao Ming turned thoughtful.

It was incredibly difficult for Xiao Yan to grow up without Yao Lao, and if he did not change that impulsive personality of his, sooner or later, he would die at the hands of others.

...

"Master Xiao Ming, do you have time to see my Master?" Only when she saw that everyone had left Yun Yun did open her mouth to state her purpose. She wanted Xiao Ming to undo her Master's seal.

"Yes, let's go." Xiao Ming would not refuse this matter, so he walked straight to where Yun Shan was and made a few hand seals.

Immediately, an invisible flame returned to his hand, and with a wave of his palm, the flame disappeared.

At the end of his movements, Yun Shan's eyes, which had remained closed, immediately opened, and the first thing that entered his eyes was the ruined Sect.

"Yun'er, what happened?" Seeing the Sect in such a state, Yun Shan felt like he was about to faint with rage.

Yun Yun hurried to help him up and then told him everything that happened.

After listening to Yun Yun's explanation, Yun Shan let out a sigh. This time, the Misty Cloud Sect suffered a great loss, and he had an inescapable responsibility for causing this outcome.

But right now was not the time to lament over it, and with Yun Yun's help, he turned to Xiao Ming before bowing and saying, "Thank you for helping us this time, Master Xiao Ming. If you need anything in the future, we will definitely do it without hesitation."

"If there's a need, I won't hesitate," Xiao Ming said with a smile.

"That's only proper, but as for my soul..."

"I've just checked, and I haven't come up with a solution yet. I'll think about it for a while. You can come to my residence in a few days."

"Thank you for your trouble, Master."

...

A graceful figure dressed in white landed elegantly beside Xiao Ming. Her fairy-like appearance and slim waist revealed that the person who had arrived was Xiao Yi Xian.

The first thing she did when she landed next to Xiao Ming was to do the same thing Zi Yan had done. Her slender hands began to grope Xiao Ming's body as she worriedly asked, "Xiao Ming, you're not injured, are you?"

"I don't have any serious injuries. There's no need for you to keep checking," Xiao Ming said helplessly. To be honest, if he didn't know that Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan were really worried about him, with both of their hands touching around, Xiao Ming would think that they were deliberately taking advantage of him.

After looking Xiao Yi Xian up and down and checking that she wasn't hurt, Xiao Ming asked, "Where is Senior Yao?"

"He was left collecting the fierce spirit." After sighing in relief, Xiao Yi Xian replied with a smile.

A while after Xiao Yi Xian uttered these words, Yao Tian Huo also appeared next to Xiao Ming. "Hehehe, the fierce spirit has already been collected by me. On the other hand, I have exhausted myself a bit this time, so I will enter a deep sleep for the time being. Wake me up again one day when you are free to help me refine the fierce spirit, Xiao Ming."

After saying this, Yao Tian Huo entered the snow-white storage ring.

Slipping the storage ring on his finger, Xiao Ming looked around. He then gestured to Zi Yan and said, "Zi Yan, it's time to go!"
