Mei Ling and Mei Qi

Mei Ling and Jian Wu left the next morning. Yu Qian had shown up to see them off. He said goodbye to Jian Wu with a firm handshake and nodded at Mei Ling, who merely nodded back. She wasn’t interested in becoming close with him. Yu Qian was weak, and he would likely never grow beyond the Human Limit Realm since he seemed to have no motivation to get stronger.

It was not long before they walked through the portal and exited the Earthbound Gateway. Mei Ling didn’t bother studying the Heavenly Sword Sect like Jian Wu, having seen it many times by now, and instead addressed her companion.

“I have some tasks I need to take care of. Can I count on you to deliver the report of our success to the mission’s administration?”

“Yeah, you can leave that to me,” Jian Wu said.

She nodded and didn’t bother saying goodbye as she left.
