A Threat to His Face
After entering the void passage, Lu Zhengran felt light and shadow flowing before his eyes, and his body was enveloped by a gentle force. In the blink of an eye, he passed through the void passage with his father.
The two suddenly appeared above Green Mountain Academy, with clouds churning beneath their feet and a night breeze caressing their faces.
He looked down at the university, its magnificent buildings nestled among the trees, their lights like stars adorning the night sky, and the distant sound of bells echoing from the eaves.
It's a familiar environment.
He can now absorb the Spiritual Qi from the sky normally.
He's back in Immortal Ruins.
He felt a little sad, but he suppressed it.
"Father, are you going back?" Lu Zhengran quickly looked at his father. At this moment, the reluctance in his heart was unprecedented.
During his time in the Demon Domain, he gradually came to enjoy the time he spent with his father. Before, he would always try to stay far away from his father whenever he saw him, but recently he noticed that his father had become much gentler than before.
They will also encourage him.
Now that they have to part ways, he feels empty inside.
"I'll see you downstairs. Also, I want to see your teacher again," Lu Qing'an said.
"Okay!" Lu Zhengran's face lit up with a hint of joy upon hearing this.
I want to spend as much time as possible with my father!
The two entered the Green Mountain Academy and landed on a plaza.
Lu Zhengran then led the way, walking skillfully in one direction.
The father and son walked in the moonlight without speaking, but neither of them disliked the atmosphere.
Before long, they arrived at the residence of the Dean of the Green Mountain Academy.
"Dad, the teacher is inside. Shall we go in?"
Before Lu Zhengran speaking, Lu Qing'an directly sucked Liang Juntian out of the body.
Just a Liang Juntian was meditating, but the next moment he inexplicably flew out of his residence and forcibly crossed the void to arrive in front of Lu Qing'an and the other person.
Because he was originally sitting cross-legged, he now sat directly on the muddy ground.
"No!!!" Before Liang Juntian could say anything, he suddenly saw Lu Qing'an and Lu Zhengran. Especially when he saw Lu Qing'an, his eyes widened, his open mouth instantly closed, and he quickly got up from the ground, his body trembling involuntarily.
"Zhengran... you're back..." He knew Lu Zhengran was coming back tonight, but seeing Lu Zhengran again still made him feel sad.
Do you really have to come back?!
"Yes, teacher, my father wants to see you." Lu Zhengran's expression was very complicated when he saw Liang Juntian again.
After realizing he had been deceived, a deep-seated resentment remained in his heart.
When Liang Juntian looked at Lu Qing'an again, a bitter smile, more painful than a grimace, graced his face. "You're here too..."
Lu Qing'an had only one purpose in wanting to see Liang Juntian: to say a few words.
He directly transmitted his voice to Liang Juntian.
"I've learned from Xu Xuanyu and Xu Yunyi about your purpose in luring my son to the Demon Domain Realm. Almost no one who plotted against me survives. And what about those who plotted against my son? What do you think I should do?"
Upon hearing this telepathic message, Liang Juntian was so frightened that he went limp.
No!
Are they here to kill me?!
"I! I was asked by Lin Qingxue!! And we really didn't mean to hurt Zhengran! Lin Qingxue wants Xu Qingying to become stronger, and I also want Zhengran to go to your side, enjoy better resources, and become stronger!!" Liang Juntian quickly explained via telepathy.
"What do you think I care about?" Lu Qing'an asked telepathically.
"What do you want me to do to forgive me?!" Liang Juntian was on the verge of tears.
He knew that saying anything more would be useless, but he wasn't stupid. If Lu Qing'an wanted to kill him, he would have already done so by now!
"Listen carefully. If anything happens to my son in the Immortal Ruins, I don't care who did it. I'll hold you and Lin Qingxue accountable. And I don't care what you're doing or what you're plotting. If you dare to use any means against my son and affect him, no one in the entire Cangyun Continent can protect you."
Upon hearing the telepathic threat, Lu Qing'an stepped forward.
Seeing Liang Juntian trying to back away in fright, his eyes turned cold, and he immediately pinned Liang Juntian to the spot.
He grabbed Liang Juntian Liang Juntian's shoulder and channeled a wisp of Demonic Qi into it. He didn't actually do anything, but he still transmitted his voice, saying, "I've already cast a special Devil Cultivation Method on you. No matter where you hide or what you use to conceal yourself, it's useless. I can find you. Remember, don't try anything Xiaocong. And tell Lin Qingxue everything I just said, word for word."
He naturally didn't possess such Devil Cultivation Method; he was merely trying to scare Liang Juntian. However, Liang Juntian had no idea whether he actually had such Devil Cultivation Method.
After saying that, Lu Qing'an released his grip on Liang Juntian's shoulder and turned to look at his son.
"Child, your father is going back now. After that, you should cultivate diligently here. This half-sword is for you."
He had originally planned to give it to his son on his birthday, which was in a month.
But the son did not choose to stay in the Demon Domain.
This surprised him, but also brought him some relief.
At least my son is no longer that spoiled brat who only cares about immediate gains.
They've developed their own thinking abilities and have their own things they care about.
This is a necessary process for a boy to grow into a man.
"Father..."
Seeing the half-knife his father handed him, Lu Zhengran's eyes reddened again.
"Alright, if you miss your father, just send him a message. Don't be shy, you know how fast your father can travel between the two realms. If you want to eat your Grandpa Xiao's food, just send me a message, and I'll take you there for a meal!"
Lu Qing'an smiled.
With tears welling up in his eyes, Lu Zhengran nodded quickly, "Yes, yes!!"
"Alright, Dad will head back now."
"Dad, can I hug you...?" Lu Zhengran mustered his courage and asked.
He had forgotten how long it had been since he had hugged his father.
It seems like I haven't been held by my father since I turned five...
Lu Qing'an smiled and opened his arms.
Lu Zhengran forward and hugged his father tightly. "Dad, thank you for taking care of me during this time."
"Why are you being so polite with your father?"
The two parted, Lu Zhengran said with a smile, "Dad, go back now! Tell my sisters that I'm back safe and sound."
"Hmm." Lu Qing'an looked at his son deeply, then shattered the void and turned to step into it.
Lu Zhengran gazed at his father's tall, straight back. The black robe was edged with a hazy silver in the moonlight, its outline so clear it was almost sharp.
I don't know when it started, but my father's figure is no longer as majestic as I remember.
A gust of wind blew by, causing his long hair to flutter, and a pale red mole on the back of his father's neck suddenly came into his view.
So, my father had such a noticeable mole there...
Just then, the rain began to fall silently, starting with just a few scattered drops, then turning into fine silver threads.
Lu Qing'an stopped and reached out to catch a wisp of rain.
He looked up at the sky, a gentle smile playing on his lips, and waved to his son with his back turned.
The void and black hole contracted and closed tightly, raindrops passed through that void, and everything was shrouded in mist and rain, so that no one could be seen.
