"Alright, I'll accept it in place of uncle." Jun Qingchen did not reject anymore, and accepted the pill box and kept it.

Yun Jinxiu heaved a sigh of relief, "Where are they?"

"The academy needs to be rebuilt, so Murong and the others took the lead and rushed back to genius camp." Jun Qingchen's gaze slightly slowed down, "However, they will probably return with you to Chu Yun."

The Shuiyue Kingdom, the Thunder Nation, and the Stone City were not far from each other. Back then, in order to avoid being persecuted by the phoenix-race, they had all destroyed their own void paths. At present, they could only follow Yun Jinxiu to the Eastern Emergence Kingdom, and then return to their homeland.

"I intend to leave tomorrow." Yun Jinxiu said.

Jun Qingchen's body froze, "Not much more time?"

"The phoenix-race had previously sent an army to send out the clouds. We need to get there before them." Although Yun Jinxiu did not lie, she was not too worried about the facts. Since the matters of the Eastern Desolation had already been resolved, there was no longer a need to delay.

This excuse was very useful.

Jun Qingchen said with a stern expression: "If that's the case, then we really need to hurry back. I'll have the Monarch Family send more people over to help you."

"No need, they're not my match yet." Yun Jinxiu's eyes flashed slightly, and changed the subject, "Let's go to the academy for a walk."

Jun Qingchen was startled, then smiled: "Alright, I'll accompany you."

After the war, the academy was in a state of depression.

Even the crafty moonlight became cold when it fell on the ground.

The strange flowers and unusual flowers that hadn't been pruned for a long time made it quite lively. Even though it was deep in the night, they still competed for the Yan, floating in the dark fragrance.

Not far away, a small hut made of bamboo was shrouded in moonlight. Yun Jinxiu saw a haggard old man from afar, holding a broom and leaning against the bamboo door as he dozed off.

Yun Jinxiu couldn't help but glance at Jun Qingchen. He raised his index finger, let out a soft "hush", and then quietly walked over.

Most of the academy's instructors had been forced out of the academy, and those who stayed behind were only the few elders from the elders pavilion. At this moment, Elders Evergreen and Xing Hai had all fallen at the hands of yin prison s … However, Elder Mu seemed to have never left.

Jun Qingchen walked forward, carefully carried the little old man on his back, and sent him to the bamboo house to sleep. Then, he walked out and saw that Yun Jinxiu was staring at the piles of leaves on the ground.

He bent his body slightly, squatted with one hand holding onto his knees, then casually picked up a leaf: "After the phoenix-race controls the Eastern Desolation, many of the academy's instructors were forced to leave the academy, leaving behind a few elders from the elders pavilion. However, Elder Evergreen and Elder Xing Hai, all of them died at the hands of the golden spider and yin prison, and instead, it was Elder Mu.

Yun Jinxiu's eyes flashed. Although Li Changqing and Xing Hai's personalities were different, they were both sharp tongue-tied. She had learnt star diagram from Xing Hai, but unexpectedly, after they parted ways that year, it had become a farewell.

"How is the Principal and Clan Elder Qin Xiu?" Yun Jinxiu released the leaves in his hands, allowing them to be dispersed by the wind.

Jun Qingchen also stood up: "Elder Xiu has been severely injured by the spider silk and his life is uncertain. The principal has also been injured by the spider silk and is currently in closed door cultivation."

"Let's go take a look." Yun Jinxiu said.

Jun Qingchen nodded, he then raised his hand and wrapped it around her waist, and with a flash, he appeared again at the mountain behind the academy.

The tall and sturdy building silently stood at the top of the mountain.

The moment the two of them appeared, a voice rang out, "Come in."

It was Dugu Ying.

Jun Qingchen stepped forward, pushed open the door, and walked in together with Yun Jinxiu.

Inside the pavilion, an old lamp was lit, Dugu Ying was seated cross-legged on a cushion, his face was pale white, and behind him was the motionless Qin Xiu.

Dugu Ying looked at Yun Jinxiu with a rare gentle expression on his face, "I never thought that you would come back."

Yun Jinxiu said indifferently: "It's just along the way."

The corner of Dugu Ying's mouth twitched slightly.

Jun Qingchen laughed: "Principal, Jin Er's medical skills are top-notch, let her treat Elder Qin Xiu's injuries."

The implied meaning was that Dugu Ying was blocking his way.

Dugu Ying had no choice but to get up and leave, and said slowly: "That spider silk truly grinded people, Qin Xiu's old bones, were truly tormented."

It was just as Dugu Ying had said. The old man who was already thin was now like a dried up tree trunk with his eyes closed and his face sallow. He lay there like a thousand year old corpse.

His body was covered in even more scars. The spider silk was stuck in his flesh, causing his already serious injuries to worsen.

The most troublesome thing was that most of the spider silk had already entered his lungs and intertwined with his organs. If she were to use the Soul Fire to transform those spider silk, then perhaps if she wasn't careful, this old man would completely lose his life.

Yun Jinxiu replied without turning his head, "You guys can go out and talk."

Dugu Ying, who was talking, looked at Jun Qingchen with an extremely strong adaptability and said, "Let's talk outside."

Jun Qingchen laughed, "Alright."

The room door was gently closed. Only then did Yun Jinxiu knead the Soul Fire into a thin stick and wrapped it with force before slowly probing into Qin Xiu's body.

Using the Soul Fire to temper the human body was already an extremely painful thing to do. Of course, for the medicine masters and the innate soul fire people, although tolerable, it was akin to falling into an unparalleled hell for ordinary people.

Although Yun Jinxiu used force to wrap the Soul Fire around, the moment the Soul Fire entered his body, the unconscious Qin Xiu immediately opened his eyes wide, and just as he was about to scream out in pain, Yun Jinxiu casually used a handkerchief to gag him.

Yun Jinxiu moved his spiritual consciousness again, and the vine shot out again, trapping the little old man inside. Then, it ignored the little old man's round eyes that were filled with pain, and rushed towards the old man's lungs.

Outside the door, Dugu Ying grabbed a chess piece and landed on the chess board. He swept his gaze across Jun Qingchen and said, "This doesn't seem to be at your usual level."

Jun Qingchen was a genius that was hard to come across in a thousand years. He was born with honor, but he did not have the slightest bit of impetuousness in his youth.

Ever since he had gotten injured, Jun Qingchen had frequently visited him to play chess and drink tea.

Jun Qingchen was startled, he then looked at the chess board, only to see that more than half of his chess pieces were dead, and he immediately said helplessly: "I have something on my mind."

Dugu Ying said, "Is there something wrong with your heart, or is there something on your mind?"

Jun Qingchen was startled, then laughed: "What the Principal feels, is what it is." Then, he took out the white note and threw it on the floor.

Dugu Ying slightly creased his brows. He picked up Hei Zi and pondered for a long time before carefully placing him in a corner. "Qingchen, you clearly have a path in front of you, but why did you take the wrong path?"

Jun Qingchen held onto Bai Zi, and after being stunned for a while, he said: "This, might also be my fate."

If there really was such a thing as destiny, then what was the end of his destiny?

When Yun Jinxiu came out, the game of chess had just ended. Yun Jinxiu glanced at him and realized that Jun Qingchen had lost, and lost in a way that was somewhat inconceivable.

Jun Qingchen also looked at the chess board in shock, and was unable to recover from the shock for a long time.
