99: Departure
After Instructor Song Zhenfeng agreed with Su Yuan’s words, he finalized the plan to treat Huangfu Shiyao.
Before treating Huangfu Shiyao, Instructor Song Zhenfeng also cleared everyone from the room.
Firstly, to prevent him from being disturbed while treating Huangfu Shiyao.
Secondly, to prevent the Soul-Devouring Gu Worm’s desperate counterattack from harming Su Yuan and others.
Although Instructor Song Zhenfeng determined that the Soul-Devouring Gu Worm was not King-level, but merely a Lord-level Vicious Beast, he had no difficulty dealing with it.
However, this Soul-Devouring Gu Worm was a mental-type Vicious Beast. If it launched a last-ditch mental storm attack on the two Geniuses, Su Yuan and Huangfu Yunzhao, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although Huangfu Yunzhao and Su Yuan were exceptionally talented, their current strength was still weak, not yet reaching Commander-level.
If they encountered an attack from a Lord-level Soul-Devouring Gu Worm, the two would definitely be unable to resist.
At this moment, all the Experts of the Huangfu Family were guarding outside the room where Huangfu Shiyao was located.
To prevent anyone from disturbing Instructor Song Zhenfeng, they were all on high alert, not even allowing a single mosquito to approach their small courtyard.
“Young friend Su Yuan, we owe you a great debt this time.”
“If my brother can recover safely this time, our Huangfu Family will owe you an enormous favor.”
Outside the small courtyard, Huangfu Shiba looked at Su Yuan with an excited expression, his eyes filled with gratitude, and said.
It was evident that the relationship between the two brothers, Huangfu Shiyao and Huangfu Shiba, was extremely close.
It was not like the descriptions in some novels where brothers in large Families scheme against and oppose each other.
“Su Yuan, thank you.”
Beside Huangfu Shiba, Huangfu Yunzhao also looked at Su Yuan with gratitude at this moment.
“It was merely a small effort; there’s no need for you two to be like this.”
“If Family Head Huangfu can awaken, the two of you should be most grateful to Instructor Song.”
“Without Instructor Song, even if I knew the culprit was the Soul-Devouring Gu Worm, with my strength, I would be helpless against it.”
Looking at their grateful expressions, Su Yuan humbly replied again.
What he said was true.
Even if his strength was much greater than his peers, even able to contend with ordinary beast tamers who had just entered the Commander-level.
But facing a Lord-level Soul-Devouring Gu Worm, even if he went all out, it would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
“Hahaha, young friend Su Yuan, you shouldn’t be so modest.”
“After Instructor Song resolves that Soul-Devouring Gu Worm, you and Yunzhao should both set off for Nine Provinces Academy.”
“In the future, while you two young people are studying at Nine Provinces Academy, you can also support each other and communicate more.”
“If you need anything, you can always have Yunzhao send us a message. As long as our Huangfu Family can help, we will do our utmost!”
Huangfu Shiba looked at the humble Su Yuan, smiled, and reached out to pat his shoulder.
Creak—
Just then, the door to the room in the small courtyard slowly opened, and Song Zhenfeng walked out of the room with a calm expression.
“It’s Instructor Song!”
“Instructor Song, how is my father (brother)?”
Seeing Song Zhenfeng walk out of the room, everyone immediately rushed forward.
Huangfu Shiba and Huangfu Yunzhao spoke almost simultaneously, asking nervously.
“Don’t worry, both of you. Family Head Huangfu is fine now.”
Seeing their anxious expressions, Song Zhenfeng said with a smile.
“Instructor Song’s strength is truly unfathomable, to have resolved the Soul-Devouring Gu Worm in such a short time.”
Upon hearing this, the stone in Huangfu Shiba’s heart finally dropped. He immediately bowed in gratitude and excitedly thanked Instructor Song Zhenfeng.
“Yes, indeed, we truly owe a great deal to Instructor Song this time.”
Huangfu Yunzhao also echoed, her eyes full of pleasant surprise.
“Cough, cough, although Family Head Huangfu is fine now, he still needs to rest and recuperate for a period of time.”
“Let’s leave now and let Family Head Huangfu rest quietly.”
Instructor Song Zhenfeng looked at the excited crowd around him and spoke again.
Everyone was blocking him at the doorway, like Family members waiting outside an operating room at a hospital, completely blocking his path.
This feeling of being surrounded made Instructor Song Zhenfeng, who usually preferred peace and quiet, a little uncomfortable.
“Alright, everyone, listen to Instructor Song. Let’s all leave and let Big Brother rest well.”
Hearing Instructor Song Zhenfeng’s words, Huangfu Shiba immediately spoke to those around him.
The members of the Huangfu Family all nodded and left with peace of mind.
“Instructor Song has traveled a long way and now has lent a helping hand to my brother; it must have been truly exhausting.”
“I have already arranged a banquet in a private room. I hope Instructor Song can honor us with his presence.”
“It won’t be too late to depart for Nine Provinces Academy after some rest.”
After everyone left, Huangfu Shiba respectfully said to Instructor Song Zhenfeng.
“Very well, the journey to Nine Provinces Academy will take a considerable amount of time, so it’s good to fill our stomachs before setting off.”
Instructor Song Zhenfeng did not refuse. The group then left Family Head Huangfu Shiyao’s courtyard under Huangfu Shiba’s lead.
...
Two and a half hours later, under the warm send-off of the Huangfu Family, Su Yuan and the others arrived outside Tianyun City.
“Instructor Song, young friend Su Yuan, thank you both for today’s matter. In the future, if there’s ever anything the Huangfu Family can do, just say the word!”
Outside Tianyun City, Huangfu Shiba thanked Su Yuan and Instructor Song Zhenfeng, who were standing on the back of the Silverwing Gryphon.
Both of them nodded at his words.
Seeing this, Huangfu Shiba then turned his gaze to Huangfu Yunzhao, admonishing her:
“Yunzhao, study hard at Nine Provinces Academy and strive to improve yourself.”
“Mmm, I understand! Second Uncle!”
Huangfu Yunzhao nodded obediently at his words.
“Alright, time is almost up; we should depart now.”
After the pleasantries, Instructor Song Zhenfeng glanced at the time and said in a low voice.
Subsequently, he nodded slightly to Huangfu Shiba as a signal. With a thought, the Silverwing Gryphon beneath his feet flapped its wings, stirring up a gust of wind, and soared upwards.
After the Silverwing Gryphon reached the sky, it accelerated and sped towards Nine Provinces Academy.
Amidst a series of sonic booms, the Silverwing Gryphon’s figure almost instantly disappeared from the sight of Huangfu Shiba and the other Experts of the Huangfu Family.
“Su Yuan, we’ll be classmates now. Please guide me in the future.”
On the Silverwing Gryphon, Huangfu Yunzhao looked at Su Yuan, who stood tall beside her, and extended her right hand with a faint smile.
“The feeling is mutual.”
Seeing this, Su Yuan also extended his hand with a gentle smile and shook Huangfu Yunzhao’s hand.
As their hands met, Su Yuan felt a boneless softness, accompanied by a subtle, almost imperceptible warmth.
It was like a piece of warm jade just taken out of water.
Looking at the beautiful woman with hair as dark as ink and eyes like water, and feeling the touch of her slender, fair right hand.
Su Yuan smiled slightly, then released the girl’s right hand and looked straight ahead.
