Chapter 1904: Farewell
Translator: Legge
“Fellow Daoist Su, you…”
Xia Qingying came behind Su Zimo and hesitated.
Su Zimo said softly, “I’m leaving.”
Xia Qingying was silent.
She had already guessed it.
!!
At the banquet earlier on, Su Zimo took the initiative to form an alliance between Snow Wind Ridge and Twin Dragon Sect. In reality, he wanted Snow Wind Ridge to have another ally and leave a way out for them.
However, now that Su Zimo said it personally, she still felt a surge of complicated emotions. She was a little reluctant and enlightened.
Actually, more than a hundred years ago, when Xia Qingying knew that Su Zimo had transcended four Heavenly Tribulations and ascended to the upper world, she realized that he would definitely leave this place and the Dragon Abyss Star.
However, she had not expected this day to arrive so quickly.
In just a hundred years, the person before her had already cultivated to a Grade 7 Black Immortal—that cultivation speed was unimaginable!
What was even more frightening was that this person’s current status on the Dragon Abyss Star was extremely important and his reputation was unparalleled.
The leaders of the major factions had to take the initiative to befriend him!
This person was like a divine dragon who had only washed up on the shallows by some freak coincidence. There would come a day where he would eventually head to an even more magnificent river!
“When do you expect to leave?”
Xia Qingying asked.
Su Zimo said deeply, “There’s no hurry. I’ll make a move after imparting all the Dharmic arts of this immortal formation to you guys.”
“Alright,”
Xia Qingying nodded in agreement.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSu Zimo thought for a moment and reminded, “Also, don’t tell anyone about my departure.”
Xia Qingying was slightly stunned but understood quickly.
As long as the cultivators outside thought that Su Zimo was still in Snow Wind Ridge, no one would dare harbor designs on it!
The battle at Dragon Abyss City, the trampling of Blood Sun Valley and the annihilation of the Two Great Bandits—those three battles were enough to shock everyone!
As long as there was enough time and Yue Hao and the others grew, Snow Wind Ridge would be able to match the major factions even without Su Zimo.
Right then, Duan Tianliang and Big Yellow finished tidying up the battlefield and ran over happily.
“Boss Su, we’ve gained too much this time round!”
Duan Tianliang took out a storage bag and handed it to Su Zimo, saying excitedly, “The storage bags of the 100,000 bandits, including Wind Flame and the others, are inside.”
“Yes,”
Su Zimo received the storage bags and checked them rapidly.
While there were indeed many things in the storage bags of the Two Great Bandits, there was almost nothing that was truly useful to Su Zimo.
This was the remote Dragon Abyss Star after all and apart from the battlefield in the abyss, there were almost no treasures.
However, Su Zimo collected all the Essence Spirit Stones in the storage bags and there were more than 400 of them.
He put away the Essence Spirit Stones and handed the remaining storage bags to Xia Qingying.
After pondering for a moment, Su Zimo took out another hundred Essence Spirit Stones and handed them to Xia Qingying.
The operation of the immortal formation required the energy within Essence Spirit Stones.
He left the hundred Essence Spirit Stones for Snow Wind Ridge as a precaution.
For the next period of time, Su Zimo stayed in Snow Wind Ridge and imparted the formation patterns, control and operation of the immortal formation to Xia Qingying and Yue Hao.
Su Zimo had already expended dozens of Essence Spirit Stones to break through to Grade 7 Black Immortal.
The remaining 300 Essence Spirit Stones were not enough for him to break through to Grade 8 Black Immortal!
On the Dragon Abyss Star, it was almost impossible to obtain Essence Spirit Stones without an Essence Spirit Stone mine.
The only way to obtain more Essence Spirit Stones was to leave the Dragon Abyss Star and head to the wider Green Cloud County. The Essence Qi there was also richer and he could cultivate faster!
Furthermore, Mei Ji was an outstanding talent among the Heaven Immortals after all. It was inevitable that her death here might attract more experts of the same sect.
The longer he lingered on the Dragon Abyss Star, the easier it would be for other changes to happen!
A year later.
Xia Qingying and Yue Hao had already mastered most of the immortal formation and what was left was familiarity and comprehension.
Although Su Zimo had not mentioned it for the past year, Duan Tianliang, Big Yellow and the others had already vaguely sensed something.
Nobody pointed it out.
The day before Su Zimo left, Big Yellow reverted to his human form.
The next night, he left quietly without informing anyone.
More than a hundred years ago, he arrived on the Dragon Abyss Star alone.
Now, he was also leaving alone.
He did not owe Snow Wind Ridge anything.
Over the years, he had saved Snow Wind Ridge from the brink of death countless times and left many resources for them to grow.
The karma between him and Snow Wind Ridge had been severed and he no longer had any ties in his heart.
Right then, Su Zimo who was in midair seemed to have sensed something and suddenly paused, turning around.
A few figures stood at the entrance of Snow Wind Ridge and looked at him from afar.
Even though it was night and they were 50 kilometers apart, Su Zimo could still see their appearances clearly.
Yue Hao, Xia Qingying, Shen Fei, Gu Wenjun, Duan Tianliang…
These people had still come out to send him off.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA warm feeling flowed through Su Zimo’s heart. After looking at everyone for a long time, he took a deep breath and turned around. With his back facing everyone, he waved and disappeared into the night.
“I wonder if I’ll have the chance to see Boss Su again in the future,”
Duan Tianliang sighed softly with a dejected expression.
Yue Hao said, “Brother Su doesn’t belong here after all. We’re too far away from him and that distance would most likely only increase in the future.”
Shen Fei smiled and pretended to be relaxed. “That’s good too. If Fellow Daoist Su makes a name for himself in Green Cloud County one day, we might be able to brag about our experiences with him all these years!”
…
Suppressing the melancholy of parting in his heart, Su Zimo composed himself and sped towards Dragon Abyss City.
His cultivation was not high enough and he could only make use of the teleportation formation in Dragon Abyss City if he wanted to leave the Dragon Abyss Star and head to Green Cloud County.
There were two ways to use the teleportation formation to leave.
The first was to cultivate to Grade 9 Black Immortal.
Second, he had to pay a hundred Essence Spirit Stones.
A hundred Essence Spirit Stones was a little painful.
However, as long as he could arrive at Green Cloud County safely, he would have more chances to obtain more Essence Spirit Stones!
Half a month later, Su Zimo arrived at Dragon Abyss City.
Dragon Abyss City had not changed much after dozens of years.
On the other hand, the few guards at the entrance were first stunned when they saw Su Zimo before their expressions changed!
Most of the cultivators in the city had witnessed the battle beneath Dragon Abyss City personally.
Furthermore, Su Zimo’s reputation had grown over the years. After destroying the Two Great Bandits a year ago, he was even more famous and everyone knew about him!
Many guards were wary when they saw Su Zimo arrive and even forgot to collect his entrance fee.
Su Zimo smiled faintly and took out 1,000 Essence Condensation Pills, stuffing them into the hands of a guard. “Excuse me, badge.”
The guard took two steps back instinctively with a cautious gaze. He paused for a moment before throwing a badge back to Su Zimo.
Su Zimo received the badge. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he headed straight for the City Lord’s residence, prepared to pay the Essence Spirit Stones and leave immediately.
He had a feud with Liu Tong in Dragon Abyss City.
If Liu Tong knew that he had entered the city once more, there was a high chance that something would happen.
