Gazing at that ridian, Emperor Longteng remained silent.
After a long while, he picked up that Spirit Vein.
"Elder, the secret of the True Dragon may have already been leaked. Difficult tis loom over Longteng Country; I think..."
"Emperor, no, the ti has not co yet. Your servant understands your thoughts, but as long as Your Majesty has not made a breakthrough, action must not be taken. Otherwise, the day the True Dragon awakens will be the day Longteng Country perishes."
That voice in the air advised against taking action.
"We still have to wait; what if I never find a way to break through..."
A haze covered Emperor Longteng’s refined and handso face.
"Emperor, you already possess the number one Martial ridian of Longteng Country; your breakthrough is only a matter of ti."
The elder’s voice was filled with firm certainty.
"The number one Martial ridian of Longteng... Heh, for it, I have sacrificed so much..."
The blood-drenched Spirit Vein in Emperor Longteng’s hand split in response.
His voice betrayed endless helplessness and sighs.
Dawn was breaking.
Inside the School Clinic of Qingtian Academy, Master Mo was abruptly awakened early in the morning by a loud knocking.
"Which blind fool is this, in such a hurry to be reincarnated, didn’t you see the sign at the door? I am not seeing patients these days!"
Master Mo, grumpy from being woken up, opened the door in a huff.
Xin Lin was away, and Master Mo was used to bossing her around. Unable to deal with those who ca seeking treatnt, Master Mo simply shut down the clinic.
But to his surprise, it was Mu Chen’s face that he saw.
Seeing that face which could make many won scream, Master Mo’s mood softened.
"Where is Xin Lin? She has been off for three days now, and as her supervisor, it is my duty to remind her that if she does not return to class, she had better pack up and leave."
Mu Chen looked around, ready to rush into the dical Hall.
Qingtian Academy did not permit casual leaves; missing classes three consecutive days or more was strictly not allowed, except for academy-related missions.
"Stop right there. Xiao Xin is sick. She has taken two more days of leave."
Master Mo had no idea what Xin Lin was up to, so he resorted to stalling.
"She is a doctor herself, how could she be so ill."
Mu Chen was disbelieving.
Just a few days ago, he saw Xin Lin full of vigor, how could she be sick the next mont?
"Doctors cannot heal themselves, don’t you even understand this simple logic? Off you go, she’ll recover in a few days."
Master Mo blocked the doorway, refusing to let Mu Chen in at any cost.
"So seriously ill that she needs that? I know people in the Imperial Hospital; I can have her taken there for treatnt."
Mu Chen was not one to give up easily; he wedged his foot inside the door, intending to squeeze in.
"Hey! Are you trying to compete with , young man!"
Master Mo was furious, yet there she stood, frail and thin, immovable at the doorway.
Mu Chen pushed several tis.
And yet, he could not budge her.
Goodness!
The old lady’s strength was no joke!
Mu Chen was secretly shocked.
Master Mo usually appeared half-asleep, but unexpectedly had so prowess.
"Today, I must get inside!"
Without regard for the consequences, Mu Chen’s form darted forward, already inside the School Clinic.
However, just as he was about to enter the clinic’s small room, his collar tightened, and he was hoisted up like a chicken by Master Mo.
"Boy, thinking of tricking ? When I was making waves across the mainland, you were still wearing diapers at ho."
Master Mo pinched Mu Chen’s collar with one middle finger and one index finger, and with a slight exertion of strength from her hand.
Mu Chen, a tall figure, was whooshed out of the School Clinic.
With a splash.
He landed squarely in the pond outside the dical Hall.
