Chapter 187 Reunion

Early next morning.

When Lin Xun woke up, his head ached and his body was uncomfortable. These were the side effects from over-drinking.

He drew a deep breath, circulated his spirit dipper qi around his body, and instantly dispelled the discomfort throughout his body.

Only then did Lin Xun feel refreshed and his spirits lifted.

He realized that he had somehow made his way back to Old Mos warehouse.

With your alcohol tolerance, you competed with others in drinking?

Looking contemptuous, Xiaoman came over with a cup of hot tea and handed it to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun smiled bitterly, drank the tea in one go and said, Miss Xiaoman, did you bring me back here last night?

Xiaoman snorted, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she stared at Lin Xun. However, although you dont have a good alcohol tolerance, you performed very well in your breakthrough yesterday. I heard from Chief Xu that you opened up a first-grade aeth power reservoir called Eye of the Storm. You are indeed worthy of being called my little brother. Good job!

She affectionately pinched Lin Xuns cheek and smiled proudly. Did you know that you have helped vent my anger earlier? When they heard what kind of aeth power reservoir you opened up, they were all astonished like they saw a ghost. Hahaha.

Lin Xun smiled bitterly. Big Sister Xiaoman, you didnt gamble again, right?

Xiaoman sighed regretfully. I wanted to, but they were too scared. How would they dare to bet against me?

Lin Xun was at a loss for words.

Xiaoman suddenly asked, When do you plan to leave?

The question surprised Lin Xun. He suddenly remembered that the assessments in Blood Kill Camp had ended and all the students had made breakthroughs. It was finally time to leave.

Where are Shi Yu and Ning Meng? Lin Xun asked.

Their families have sent people to collect them this morning, Xiaoman said casually.

Lin Xun finally understood why they drank with him last night. It turned out that they already knew that they would be leaving the next day.

Inexplicably, Lin Xun sighed. After this parting, I wonder when we will meet again. This feeling is indeed upsetting.

Perhaps, they didnt want to make a huge fuss about the parting and so left without saying goodbye.

Xiaoman teased, Hey, youre so young but youre already so sentimental? Dont worry, as long as you guys are still in the empire, you will have an opportunity to see each other again.

Lin Xun nodded and then he asked, Then, its time for me to leave now?

Xiaoman said in a slightly surprised tone, What, you dont want to leave? I forgot to tell you that all the other students had left Blood Kill Camp early in the morning.

Lin Xun was taken aback.

It finally hit him that his one year in Blood Kill Camp had come to an end.

Would he miss it?

Perhaps.

However, when he had to truly leave, he realized that the world was so vast that he didnt know where to go

As though Xiaoman could tell that Lin Xun was upset, she clapped him on the shoulder and reassured him, Blood Kill Camp is too isolated from the world. You have to leave here if you want to achieve greater things on your cultivation path.

Lin Xun smiled wryly. Sister Xiaoman, are you trying to drive me away?

At that moment, Xiaoman was unusually calm and she no longer had a flirtatious look on her sexy and beautiful face. Instead, it was replaced by a solemn and serious expression. She looked at Lin Xun directly and said, Little brat, you really should go.

You have a lot of secrets and you also have a lot of things on your mind that I dont know about. I know that you must have a lot of things you need to do. So, even if Ill miss you, I wont keep you.

Such a few simple words made Lin Xuns heart tremble. He stared at Xiaoman for a long moment and then suddenly smiled, spread out his arms, and hugged her for the first time.

Sister Xiaoman, remember what I said that night. You have to tell me if you have any troubles!

After that, Lin Xun turned around and walked out of Old Mos warehouse in large strides.

At that moment, the young mans back seemed unusually resolute, like a spear that had been thrust out; he never turned his head back around once.

As Xiaoman stared blankly as Lin Xun left, her beautiful eyes misted over.

That damn little bastard!

The campground was extremely quiet and empty. It was no longer as lively and clamorous as it was in the past.

As Lin Xun walked alone, he recalled his purpose of enduring the hardships to go to the Ziyao Empire.

He thought about Mister Lu who had vanished when the mine prison was destroyed.

He thought of Xia Zhi.

He thought of Old Mo, who was taken away to protect him

As Xiaoman had said, Lin Xun indeed had many things that he couldnt let go. Only by leaving could he truly solve them!

Xu Sanqi suddenly appeared in front of Lin Xun and handed him his storage ring. This is the storage ring you brought here. I now return it to its true owner.

Lin Xun received it and asked, Instructor Xu, to tell you the truth, I came to Blood Kill Camp to

Before he finished, Xu Sanqi interrupted, Someone will soon talk to you about your problems, so you dont need to tell me.

Lin Xun looked bewildered.

Soon, Lin Xun vaguely guessed the answer. An old, shabby treasure ship produced an ear-piercing roar and whizzed towards their direction while swaying like a drunkard.

The treasure ship looked very familiar; it was the shabby treasure ship that sent Lin Xun, Ning Meng and Shi Yu to Blood Kill Camp one year ago.

Lin Xun still remembered that the man who operated the ship was a bearded middle-aged man called Xue Jin.

They are here to collect you. A strange look crossed Xu Sanqis rock-hard face as he stared at the shabby ship.

Rumble

The treasure ship swayed violently like it was short of breath and landed on the periphery of Blood Kill Camp.

A big head stuck out from the treasure ship and shouted, Little guy, hurry up, I dont want to stay in this hell for too long!

He had ruddy cheeks, a drowsy look, and a full beard that framed his face. He showed a hint of a tough and imposing manner within his laziness. It was Xue Jin.

Lin Xun nodded at Xue Jin, and then looked at Xu Sanqi. Instructor Xu, thank you for your care in the past year. I will definitely bring Old Mo back one day!

Xu Sanqi didnt comment on his promise and just took out a simple silver hairpin. If you have the chance to enter the Forbidden City and encounter trouble there, take this to the Spirit Vulture Residence. The owner there is my friend.

Lin Xun was about to decline when he heard Xu Sanqi add, Xiaoke may be there too. Dont you want to see your instructor again?

Lin Xun no longer hesitated and carefully accepted the hairpin.

Xu Sanqi said solemnly, Go now. Take care. Remember, dont forget the sentence engraved in front of the entrance of Blood Kill Camp.

Violet Glory Flower is undefeated because of blood kill and the empire exists forever because of continued expeditions

Lin Xun recited it in his heart, and bowed to Xu Sanqi with a rare seriousness.

Before leaving, he couldnt help but turn his head around one last time to peer into the distance.

He saw Xiaoman fold her arms in front of her chest. Her slender figure was standing upright and her long wine-red hair fluttered in the wind, highlighting her sexy and beautiful smiling face.

Lin Xun waved enthusiastically and smiled. Then, he turned back around and walked out of the gate of Blood Kill Camp.

Goodbye, little brat, Xiaoman muttered.

As Xu Sanqi stood alone, his figure was as straight as a spear and his face was as cold and stern as usual. He silently watched Lin Xun depart.

Lin Xun was the last student to leave Blood Kill Camp. He couldnt help but wonder if he would have new students in the future

Rumble

When Lin Xun boarded the treasure ship, Xue Jin, who had been waiting impatiently, steered the ship and it roared into the sky like a cannonball.

Lin Xun staggered, almost unable to steady his body. His face looked terribly bad, and his already upset mood due to the parting also worsened.

Hey hey, little guy, dont look so unhappy. There arent many people in the world qualified to be on my ship. Xue Jin laughed loudly and chugged down a jar of alcohol as though he didnt care about Lin Xuns view.

Lin Xun snorted, turned around, and walked into the cabin.

He froze when he walked in, and all the distracting thoughts disappeared from his mind.

An old man in black court robes was sitting in the cabin, his silver hair combed perfectly and his warm and wrinkled face was full of kindness.

It was the old man from the Black Glory Sacred Hall!

A year ago, when he was in Donglin City, the old man had appeared with the mysterious Queen of Darkness, took Xia Zhi away with unquestionable authority, and sent him to Blood Kill Camp.

Now that a year had passed, the old man reappeared, causing Lin Xun to lose his composure.

Sit. The old man said softly.

Lin Xun suppressed all sorts of puzzlement in his heart and sat down opposite the old man.

The old man stared at Lin Xun for a while and then said, In one year, you broke through from the sixth layer True Martial Stage to the human dipper stage, successively achieved first place in the quarterly assessments in Blood Kill Camp as well as the war zone assessment, and finally opened up Eye of the Storm, a first-grade aeth power reservoir.

The old man didnt try to disguise his admiration for Lin Xun. I have to admit that, a year ago, Miss and I both underestimated your potential. But there is a possibility that you encountered another opportunity in your one year in Blood Kill Camp.

Elder, youre overpraising me, said Lin Xun.

However, he was inwardly shocked that the old man was already aware of his performance in Blood Kill Camp!

The old man continued, I had promised you that if you survived Blood Kill Camp, I would tell you something about that little girl. But he suddenly stopped and wrinkled his forehead imperceptibly like he had sensed something.

Almost at the same time, Xue Jin wildly yelled out from the operation room. Goodness gracious, we only just left Blood Kill Desert but someone already came to block us! How damn exciting!

Rumble

Before his voice faded, Lin Xun felt the treasure ship that was flying at full speed shake violently and then it came to a rumbling halt.

In the sky, a long distance from the treasure ship was a giant, jet-black, fortress-like battleship appearing. It was at least one hundred feet long and was shining with glaring rune light!
