Chapter 568: 568 Exotic Beast Eggs
"Yes, how did I not think of that, uncle mentor, I will first return to Heishi City to see Ling Xian, then I’ll come back to the academy after a while." Zhao Sinin slapped his forehead abruptly, and suddenly regained his strength, running towards the valley exit.
"Ah... don’t rush off, help me stand up first, I’m not done talking yet." Pang Dezong held his knee with one hand and pounded his old back with the other as he shouted.
In fact, there was another possibility he had not yet mentioned, but Zhao Sinin had already run so far that he was out of sight.
Forget it, this possibility was too small. It was said that Fourth Miss Zhao had only recently been promoted to a Fifth Rank Swordsman and her strength was too weak; the possibility was even smaller, so it was better left unsaid. Pang Dezong had been tired for so many days, truly exhausted, and thus he gave up on chasing.
All the Family members who had come to trial had already left, there was naturally no need for them to stay any longer. After resting for a moment, Pang Dezong gathered the other instructors and disciples and left the Exotic Beast Valley.
The barrier of the Exotic Beast Valley had been formed in the ancient era although it was slightly damaged this time, it would not take long before it absorbed the Heaven and Earth Power and restored itself to its original state. They only needed to arrange some people to strictly guard the ancient battlefield’s remains for a while, there really was no need to foolishly stay in the Exotic Beast Valley.
Moreover, there were some follow-up matters to deal with; the Qu family must also come forward with some benefits. The responsibility should not be solely borne by Zhengying Academy. As the acting Dean, Pang Dezong still had many matters to handle.
After they left, the Exotic Beast Valley once again regained its previous silence, perhaps, even a bit of the tragedy and desolation following a great battle.
No one saw, right above the tomb that Zhao Sinin had repeatedly stepped over, a sinister aura was quietly gathering, filled with resentment.
The cold wind howled, as if it was the angry and unwilling shouts of the young swordsmen who had been innocently killed due to being deceived by Fengting.
The night deepened, the sky was brilliantly starry, and among them, dozens of stars were especially dazzling. The flickering starlight subtly formed a strange Star Phase pattern.
Above the tomb, that sinister aura corresponded to it, forming the same strange pattern, and then suddenly merged into the tomb.
"Mu Hanyan, I will never let you go, never..." Within the night wind, a shrill roar faintly mixed.
At dawn, the golden sunrise spread across the Earth, yet the light mountain mist lingered among the mountains, not dissipating for a long time.
Calculating the time, several days had passed since they left the Exotic Beast Valley, yet no one had caught up, indicating that Zhao Sinin and the others ultimately had not been able to find the burial sites of Fourth Miss Zhao and the others.
Mu Hanyan and his companions fully relaxed their minds, figuring that even if those people died with lingering resentment, it could not last very long since their strength was limited. Aside from those higher than a Sword Saint, no one has ever heard of someone’s will remaining in this world for a long time after death.
So many days had passed, even if they found that place, in the end, they would only find a few corroded corpses, and if more time passed, perhaps only bones would remain.
With no more worries, everyone’s mood completely relaxed. They savored the scenery along the way while leisurely walking toward the direction of Cangshan City.
Behind them, a rhythmic echo of emptiness followed.
"It’s my first time hearing about eggs that can walk; look, look, it seems like it’s also enjoying the scenery." Wu Qiuyun followed beside Mu Hanyan, pointing behind them with a face full of surprise.
The strangely-originated Exotic Beast Egg belonging to Mu Hanyan was bouncing along behind them like a rubber ball, looking both eerie and amusing.
