Departure

There is still one month until Xiao Zhan's Coming-of-Age Ceremony.

At the entrance to Peace Town in the Black-Corner Region, several figures were gathered together, chatting about something.

"Old Lin, when you have time, go back to the Jia Nan Academy and visit more often."

When First Elder Su Qian said this, a reluctant expression appeared on his face.

Since Xiao Lin joined Canaan Academy, he has not only solved several troublesome matters for the academy, but also left behind such a good place as the Trial Grounds.

First Elder Su Qian was truly grateful to him from the bottom of his heart!

Oh, right, after Xiao Lin resolved the riot caused by the Fallen Heart Flame, he had already informed First Elder Su Qian about the fact that the Heavenly Serpent Mansion had agreed to allow Jia Nan Academy to recruit students within the Heavenly Serpent Empire.

This made First Elder Su Qian excited for a long time.

As for the internal strife within the Heavenly Serpent Empire, and the conflicts between the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family and the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, he couldn't be bothered with them.

As far as Jia Nan Academy is concerned, it doesn't matter whether the Heavenly Serpent Empire is governed by the Imperial Family or the Heavenly Serpent Mansion!

As long as Jia Nan Academy can recruit students within the Heavenly Serpent Empire in the future, that's enough.

After Xiao Lin joined Canaan Academy, he first set up a spirit-gathering array in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower to improve his cultivation efficiency, and then he quelled the most restless Black Prison Alliance in the Black Corner Region.

After that, he opened up the Trial Grounds, personally went to the Heavenly Serpent Empire to participate in the Founding Ceremony, and after returning, he resolved the riot caused by the Fallen Heart Flame beneath the Heavenly Qi Refining Tower.

She even helped him take care of his little darling Zi Yan, for a period of time.

It's fair to say that in First Elder Su Qian's eyes, Xiao Lin is definitely a model worker!

Now that Xiao Lin is leaving, isn't he reluctant to part with him?

Looking at it this way, you have to admit that Xiao Lin really is a prime example of slacking off in reverse.

He did everything he was supposed to do, and everything he wasn't supposed to do.

Recalling everything that happened after he Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel a pang of reluctance.

Because it's peaceful here; he's the one causing trouble, but no one else can mess with him!

But the thought of the threat posed by the Hun Clan in the future made Xiao Lin abandon his idea of staying at the Jia Nan Academy and lying low.

His strength is not enough!

"First Elder, I haven't resigned yet. Of course, I'll come back to visit when I have time."

After suppressing all his emotions, Xiao Lin said with a smile.

Now that he has advanced to the Dou Venerable, and Jia Nan Academy is not far from the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Lin can make a round trip in less than a day if he wants!

Therefore, Xiao Lin's words were truly sincere.

For Dou Zun expert, opening a Spatial Wormhole to travel is perfectly normal.

"That's good. Don't end up like that Bastard Dean of the Outer Academy, who left for decades and now we don't even know if he's dead out there!"

Speaking of this, First Elder Su Qian gets angry.

That Bastard Dean of the Outer Academy, he said he was just going to travel for a few years.

As a result, those few years have now turned into decades!

Do you think Su Qian wouldn't be angry?

If it weren't for the occasional letters the other party would write back, First Elder Su Qian might have really thought they were dead.

Seeing First Elder Su Qian, who always showed a gritted-teeth expression whenever the Dean of the Outer Academy was mentioned, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel ashamed.

To be honest, Xiao Lin was quite curious about the Dean of the Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.

In the Original Work, the only description of the other party is that, like Dean Bu Tianchi, he is a person who likes to travel around.

As for the person in question, he never showed his face from beginning to end.

A background character within a background panel.

However, considering that Hu Gan, the vice dean of the Outer Academy in the Original Work, was a Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor, then as the dean of the Outer Academy, he should also be a Dou Zong.

Unfortunately, the other party never showed their face.

And so, Xiao Lin listened to First Elder Su Qian complain for quite a while about the dean of the Outer Academy, whom he had never met before, before the other party finally stopped.

Well, in Xiao Lin's eyes, First Elder Su Qian must have been complaining until his throat was dry.

"First Elder, Zi Yan, she—"

Once the First Elder stopped complaining, Xiao Lin couldn't help but ask about a certain little girl.

Upon hearing Xiao Lin mention Zi Yan, the First Elder instantly transformed into one of loving kindness.

"Ah, Zi Yan probably won't wake up for another year or two. Her condition is quite special. Last time she went out with you, she ate too many precious medicinal herbs, which made the digestion time much longer. Don't worry, she'll be fine."

Since Xiao Lin had asked, First Elder Su Qian naturally told him about Zi Yan's situation.

Hearing First Elder Su Qian say this, Xiao Lin sighed helplessly.

Zi Yan has been asleep for almost three years, and she still hasn't woken up.

Xiao Lin felt quite guilty for not being able to say goodbye before leaving Jia Nan Academy.

But what can he do if the other person isn't awake?

Xiao Lin only hoped that when the other person woke up and discovered that he had left without saying goodbye, they wouldn't nag him.

"First Elder, then please wait until Zi Yan wakes up and ask her to say goodbye for me."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Lin spoke to First Elder Su Qian.

"Yes, Ziyan remembers everything you've done for Zi Yan."

First Elder Su Qian readily agreed to Xiao Lin's request.

In fact, ever since returning from the Black-Corner Region, First Elder Su Qian had already seen Zi Yan's trust in Xiao Lin.

After all, the fact that Zi Yan, a magical beast who had been bullied in the Magical Beast Forest since childhood, could fall asleep on Xiao Lin's back without any guard speaks volumes.

You should know that right now, the only people Zi Yan can trust so much are First Elder Su Qian and Xiao Lin!

Afterwards, Xiao Lin chatted with the various Elder of the academy, including the First Elder Su Qian, for a few more minutes before preparing to leave.

"Everyone, please take care!"

Xiao Lin clasped his hands in a fist salute to the Elder of the Jia Nan Academy who had come to see him off.

"Elder Lin, take care!"

As the Elder of the Jia Nan Academy finished speaking, Xiao Lin turned around and soared into the sky.

"Swish"

After glancing once more at the Jia Nan Academy behind Peace Town and First Elder Su Qian and the others below, Xiao Lin flew directly away from the Black-Corner Region.

After silently watching Xiao Lin's departing figure for a while, First Elder Su Qian and the others returned to the Jia Nan Academy.

On the other side, not long after Xiao Lin flew away from the Black-Corner Region, he stopped in mid-air.

"I haven't tried this method since I advanced to Dou Venerable!"

Thinking of the ability he had tried to test in the Magma World beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower not long ago, only to have to give up in the end, Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile.

Having made his decision, Xiao Lin immediately took action.

The next second, Spatial Power erupted from Xiao Lin's body.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin unleashed his Dou Qi cultivation at the Dou Zun Realm!
