Chapter 1549: Preparing for Departure
The regular passageway to the Middle Six Prefectures that opened every ten years would be activating in the sky above the Mo Kingdom capital this time.
Therefore, cultivators who had caught wind of the news, no matter whether they were here to watch the excitement or were planning to climb the heaven-ascension stairs themselves, congregated in the Mo Kingdom capital two to three days in advance.
Wei Nanfeng and Baili Xi did not return to their kingdoms.
These two people were also planning to climb the heaven-ascension stairs to Shuntian Prefecture.
When Xiao Mi heard that her cousin Baili Xi was abandoning her for Shuntian Prefecture, she promptly wept with streaming tears. She clutched at Baili Xi’s arm as she kept wailing, “Don’t go.”
She was crying so hard that Baili Xi’s scalp turned numb. He hastily pulled his arm out and wanted to make himself scarce.
Qiao Mu went up and pulled away the bawling Xiao Mi. She then glared at Baili Xi and Wei Nanfeng, asking, “What are you two thinking? I didn’t hear you guys mention that you were planning to leave Sikong Planet.”
Wei Nanfeng couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “I had actually had this intention since a long time ago. In the present world, you have to advance or else you get left behind. In order to better protect my home and defend my kingdom, I feel that I should continue improving myself.”
“Otherwise, I would not even know that zombies were not a natural disaster but a man-made calamity, just living out my whole life in the dark.”
Baili Xi was even more direct. “Mo Lian is already that strong, yet he can toss down all mundane affairs to seek the proper path of cultivation. Why can’t we.”
Xiao Mi’s tears promptly gushed out as she yelled, “I’m going, I’m going too.”
However, Wei Nanfeng rolled his eyes at her. “The hell you are. We told you to properly cultivate back then, yet you wouldn’t listen. You naturally cannot climb the heaven-ascension stairs as a mere level-six mystic cultivator!”
“Alright.” Seeing that she had already cried a deluge of tears, Qiao Mu couldn’t help but yank her sleeve. “We will be back very soon.”
“That’s right, this farewell is only temporary. No matter where we go, Sikong Planet will forever be our home!” Liang Qingqing, who was wearing a short cyan satin gown paired with tall boots, walked over in high spirits and smiled at Xiao Mi.
“It truly is a great delight to be able to have Little Junior Sister, Junior Sister Liang, Brother Wei, and Brother Baili accompanying me on the heaven-ascension stairs!” Situ Yi said with a smile, “No matter whether we can climb to the end of the heaven-ascension stairs tomorrow, we will at least have worked hard for it.”
“There’s also me!” Appearing at the entrance of the drawing room in a fiery-red dress, Doya gave Qiao Mu a wide smile.
“Senior Sister Doya, you’ve come out of closed-door cultivation.” It seemed like Doya was quite successful in her breakthrough. She had already advanced to become a level-13 mystic cultivator now.
“Very good!” Situ Yi clapped his hands and declared with a hearty laugh, “We must toast to this moment to celebrate our inner joy.”
Wei Nanfeng nodded and ordered for someone to bring strong liquor.
Everyone each downed a cup.
Afterwards, Qiao Mu set down her cup and said to Wei Nanfeng, “These past few days, we have made a clean sweep through Northern Mo and rooted out twenty to thirty strongholds that Heavenly Fate has scattered over Sikong Planet. How is it on your end?”
“About the same.”
“This organization should have suffered a great setback on our continent, so they probably will not be able to make any moves in the near future.”
“To completely expunge these people from Heavenly Fate, there is still a difficult and dangerous ways to go.” Situ Yi gave a toast. “But there will be a day when we will completely exterminate them from our home forever.”
“Correct! At that time, our Sikong Planet will definitely revert to how it used to be.”
Everyone gave another toast before throwing back their heads, effectively downing the wine in their cups.
