The Lanyang Academy studentâs eyes widened instantly, and he emitted a sharp scream. âWhat? I cleared five checkpoints and defeated six generals! I worked so hard to earn the qualifications for this secret realm! How can you just revoke them like this?â
âWas I not explicit?â Holy Son Miyan cast a cold gaze. âYou lack the qualifications to accompany us! Leave immediately.â
The Lanyang Academy studentâs face flushed red as he turned to his companions from the same academy.
Seeing their cold stares, a sense of dismay gripped his heart. He felt a pang of desolation.
Why were they treating him like this?
Why were they driving him away?
He had merely committed a small error that any young person could makeâhe was impulsive. It wasnât as if the situation couldnât be rectified.
Moreover, everyone was unharmed. Besides his own injuries, no one else was hurt.
Why were they forcing him to leave?
The Lanyang Academy student couldnât fathom it, no matter how he pondered. His face twisted slightly as he stood rigidly in front of everyone, unwilling to budge.
The Holy Son paid him no mind. He had already decided to dismiss the student, and the individualâs opinion held no significance.
Holy Son Miyan lowered her head, surveying the scene below.
The rocks on both sides of the narrow path had ceased rolling. Boulders cluttered the road, completely blocking the way.
Holy Son Miyan instinctively massaged her temples in frustration. âThe passages below are all obstructed.â
âThere are two options now. The first is to use spiritual energy to ascend the mountain.â
âThe second option, which lacks foresight, is to continue on foot and navigate around the large rock. We only need to endure a bit longer and exit this passage. Once we move a bit further, weâll be beyond the no-fly zone.â
âClimbing the mountain would be too draining.â Mu Xingchen glanced down at Liâl Sis, Mu Rouxuan, who rested with closed eyes against the mountain wall. A hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.
Rouxuanâs stamina simply couldnât withstand such exertion!
Earlier, when Young Sir Dou distributed the pills given by Qiaoqiao for strength replenishment, Rouxuan stubbornly refused to take them. Now, Rouxuanâs condition was the most precarious in the entire team.
Zhongli Zhiwei broke free and sneered, âWhat else can we do if we donât climb the mountain? Various-sized stones are blocking the path down there! We might not even find a way out.â
âThat wonât happen.â The Holy Son shook his head. âThese stones only obstruct the narrow path below. Our journey is only slightly more challenging than before. Compared to scaling the mountain, itâs likely to be easier.â
âThen weâll follow the Holy Sonâs advice. Letâs descend and continue our journey,â a few students from the Imperial Academy agreed.
âAlright.â Hearing that the path below was less challenging, the group nodded in agreement.
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao remained indifferent. After all, she didnât have to walk herself.
Mu Xingchen glanced at Mu Rouxuan and sighed. Once again, she had to carry her and slide down the mountain wall with the help of the rope.
The group pressed on through the rain. The Lanyang Academy student trailed behind, not daring to get too close but unwilling to leave their group.
Other Lanyang Academy students couldnât bear it and whispered, âShould we plead with His Excellency the Holy Son?â
âI doubt thereâs room for negotiation,â another replied, shaking his head.
