CHAPTER 827: CHAPTER 827: HUAN SHA’S DEPARTURE

The next day, as a sliver of sunlight streamed through the window into the room, Zhu Fei happened to open his eyes.

He turned his head to look and discovered that the woman who had been lying beside him last night had suddenly vanished.

However, Zhu Fei wasn’t anxious; instead, he smiled and looked towards the doorway.

Sure enough, just as Zhu Fei lifted his gaze towards the door, it was precisely at this moment that the door to the room was pushed open from the outside.

Qiu Ruoxue, dressed in a simple white dress, entered smiling, carrying a tray in her hand.

Seeing Zhu Fei smile at her with eyes seemingly filled with some indescribable meaning, her face inexplicably turned slightly red. She rolled her eyes at Zhu Fei somewhat teasingly and said:

"Why are you still not up? Look, these are the breakfast I’ve specially prepared for you. Try them and see if they suit your taste?"

Seeing that Qiu Ruoxue had gone out to prepare breakfast for him, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing.

He thought that he and Qiu Ruoxue were no longer ordinary mortals; eating seemed to be something he hadn’t done for many years.

Though he thought this, when Zhu Fei saw the breakfast Qiu Ruoxue prepared, his heart was suddenly filled with warmth.

The breakfast wasn’t anything special, and didn’t use any precious Spiritual Medicine or Monster ingredients. It was simply the rice porridge, fried bread, and a few ’delicate’ and elegant side dishes they often ate when they were still mortals.

But it was precisely this ordinary breakfast that made the atmosphere even more warm and sweet.

Zhu Fei dressed, and saw Qiu Ruoxue still holding a cup of coffee, sipping it slowly, and couldn’t help feeling a hint of surprise.

As if noticing Zhu Fei’s gaze, Qiu Ruoxue, savoring her coffee, suddenly revealed a slight smile.

"You know, back when I was working in Lan City, I always loved coffee. Even now, though I am in the Cultivation World, growing some pure coffee beans myself is no problem."

With that, Qiu Ruoxue raised the cup towards Zhu Fei with a smile, "How about it? Would you like a cup too? It’s even purer than Blue Mountain coffee."

Seeing Qiu Ruoxue in such a rare playful manner, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but chuckle.

So he shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Qiu Ruoxue, "Then let me have a cup too, but I think if you had a newspaper in your hand, it would be even more tasteful."

Qiu Ruoxue paused slightly before realizing Zhu Fei was teasing her. Her lovely cheeks puffed up slightly as she retorted:

"Oh! What’s a paper compared to our more advanced Communication Jade? There’s no need for that anymore!"

She said this and seemed to think of something, and her beautiful eyes filled with a serene smile.

A breakfast filled with reminiscence ended slowly amidst the laughter and banter between the two.

After their frenzy yesterday, Qiu Ruoxue briefly told Zhu Fei about the happenings concerning Huan Sha over the years.

Perhaps heart knots are not something that a few words about Huan Sha from Qiu Ruoxue could easily untie.

But undoubtedly, Zhu Fei no longer had that initial mindset of wanting to outright avoid Huan Sha.

He believed that over time, while he and Huan Sha might never again be as close as family, restoring a basic friendship was still possible.

Sailing along the corridor, after passing through several prohibitions, Zhu Fei and Qiu Ruoxue left the Assassination Pavilion and flew towards the Transmission Array that links to the Northern Mountain region.

Zhu Fei planned to visit the Yue Dan Pavilion he once personally established together with Qiu Ruoxue.

Though Zhu Fei heard from Qiu Ruoxue that the current Yue Dan Pavilion was no longer the same as when he was there,

but regardless, the Yue Dan Pavilion represented his past efforts in his former life, and he certainly wanted to take a look, despite the circumstances.

...

On a mountain peak, a young girl with a face ’delicate’ like a porcelain doll watched as the two figures gradually disappeared beyond the horizon, a hint of dimness flashed in her eyes.

She stood there on the peak until the sunset slipped away beyond the skyline, then lightly sighed as she prepared to turn around. Suddenly, a voice sounded beside her ear.

"Sha Sha, are you really planning to leave? Not going to wait for him to return before you go?"

The void quivered, and Luo Huangquan’s figure suddenly appeared beside the girl named Huan Sha.

He gazed into the distance, speaking softly, "Actually you probably know, given his character, if you persist, he’ll eventually let go of the past."

Huan Sha gently shook her head, "No, I would rather disappear from his life forever than merely have that. Teacher, I’ve made up my mind, please help me."

Luo Huangquan turned to look at Huan Sha for a good while before nodding helplessly:

"Alright, since you’ve decided, I won’t say more. I hope after you leave Five Mountains, you prioritize your safety."

After a slight pause, Luo Huangquan continued: "You surely know that he is going to Northern Mountain Yue Dan Pavilion today, perhaps related greatly to you; after all these years, you’ve been the one supporting his Yue Dan Pavilion..."

With the reminder, seeing that Huan Sha still had no intention of changing her mind, Luo Huangquan no longer said anything more.

He suddenly reached out his hand and forcefully tore through the void.

In the next moment, the void pulsed, and a passage leading to an unknown destination suddenly appeared before Huan Sha.

"Take this Sky Splitting Talisman, remember to activate it immediately upon entering the spatial passage. I can’t guarantee where you will go in the Cultivation Plane, but it will ensure you won’t get lost in the space turbulence."

Receiving the Sky Splitting Talisman from Luo Huangquan, Huan Sha bowed to him with a salute, said "Thank you, Teacher," and then stepped forward.

The next second, Huan Sha’s graceful silhouette had completely vanished from the plane of Five Mountains Continent.

Watching the void slowly close before him, Luo Huangquan couldn’t help but sigh softly, somewhat helplessly:

"Ah Zhu Fei, Zhu Fei, for now I’ve helped you as much as I can, but your future with Sha Sha will depend on your destiny together."

After finishing his words, a Jade Scroll with a Divine Sense Imprint appeared in Luo Huangquan’s hand, flickering with red light.
