The Island of Life and Death

Xue Ji would not wait for the ship's departure to the Blue Phoenix Continent. That would be too long. She couldn't wait; the gods would find her soon.

 

She glanced at Peng Zhentian and Sima Chenghong dryly. "Go. If you go back on your word, the day of your destruction is set. If not today, then in the future it will happen."

 

The sky turned dark when Xue Ji said that. Lightning flashed as if the heavens had kept their oath. This made Peng Zhentian and Sima Chenghong's hearts tremble.

 

"Miss, we understand," they said quickly.

 

Peng Zhentian bowed to Xue Ji and Bai Xiu. After that, he looked at Peng Yuan wistfully. "Be careful," he said. He turned and walked away.

 

Peng Yuan watched his father leave sadly. Perhaps he had gotten used to leaving the academy and parting ways with his father. However, this time the situation was different. He wasn't sure he could return home and be with his family again.
