Chapter 51: Farewell, A Temporary Parting!

Chapter 51: Farewell, A Temporary Parting!

Wu Tian looked at Xiao Yi Xian with a serious expression and said, "You have such a delicate and gentle appearance. In battle, your enemies will underestimate you. But if you suddenly unleash a Lion's Roar, you'd definitely catch them off guard. The effect would be surprisingly good!"

Xiao Yi Xian was speechless.

Although Wu Tian's reasoning made sense, was it really okay for a young woman like her to cultivate a soundwave technique like this?

Whether it was or not, Wu Tian still shoved the technique into her hands.

Whether she practiced it or not was her business.

To him, this technique was useless and too low level anyway.

After distributing the three scrolls, Wu Tian and Xiao Yi Xian left the cave.

Outside, the sky was still pitch black.

It seemed that dawn had yet to arrive.

"Call your Xiao Lan over," Wu Tian said, glancing at Xiao Yi Xian.

She frowned, feeling a bit annoyed.

"Aren't you capable of flying yourself? Why do you need to ride my Xiao Lan?"

Wu Tian smirked. "Alright, if you say so~! Just remember, you asked for this."

Before Xiao Yi Xian could react, Wu Tian suddenly reached out

And pulled her into his arms.

The familiar sensation was surprisingly addictive.

Holding her tightly, his azure wings unfurled, and in an instant, they soared into the sky.

Xiao Yi Xian was completely caught off guard.

The sudden lift off left her with no sense of security, making her instinctively wrap her arms around Wu Tian's waist.

She felt the warmth of his body, and an overwhelming sense of comfort and safety arose from within her.

It was strange

But at the same time, irresistibly reassuring.

Blushing slightly, she pouted and mumbled, "Hmph~ why are you always like this? Always so overbearing… It's an awful feeling!"

Wu Tian didn't respond.

After all, he really was just flying her back.

He wasn't doing anything inappropriate.

Seeing that he ignored her, Xiao Yi Xian pouted even more.

But

She had no intention of letting go.

Part of it was because they were so high up, but…

The other reason?

She didn't want to.

Returning to Qingshan Town

"Xiao Yi Xian, are you heading back to Qingshan Town?" Wu Tian asked, gazing into the distance.

She nodded and smiled. "Of course! The people there treat me well. And now, thanks to you, they wouldn't dare to provoke me anymore!"

Wu Tian nodded. "Alright, I'll take you back then."

Xiao Yi Xian hesitated for a moment, then asked expectantly, "What about you?"

Wu Tian replied calmly, "Me? Once I drop you off, I'll head deeper into the Magic Beast Mountain Range."

"The inner region, huh…?" Xiao Yi Xian murmured softly, her eyes slightly dazed.

She knew that the magic beasts in the inner regions were incredibly strong.

To her, that place was far beyond her reach.

But more than that

Wu Tian himself felt far beyond her reach.

The difference between them was simply too vast.

Maybe the only way to get closer to him was to train harder and master the Poison Scripture as quickly as possible.

A Town in Chaos

Wu Tian's speed far surpassed Xiao Lan's.

A peak Dou Huang's speed wasn't something to joke about.

By the time they arrived at Qingshan Town, the entire town was in complete chaos.

People were falling over each other, scrambling away in terror.

Not because of anything else

But because Wu Tian had deliberately released his Dou Huang aura.

The sheer pressure of his immense power sent the town into a frenzy.

And when the people looked up to see Wu Tian flying in, holding Xiao Yi Xian in his arms

Their souls practically left their bodies.

That man was already terrifying before

But now, he could fly?!

How was he so strong?!

Among them 

Mu She, leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, was utterly petrified.

The moment he saw Wu Tian's wings, he collapsed to the ground.

For someone to have wings

What level of strength did that require?!

Even Dou Ling experts couldn't do this!

Did that mean Wu Tian was even stronger than a Dou Ling?!

A being far beyond their comprehension had appeared in their tiny little town.

And what's more

He had taken Xiao Yi Xian away.

And now

He had brought her back while holding her so intimately.

There was only one explanation.

Xiao Yi Xian… belonged to this monstrous powerhouse!

Mu She suddenly felt his soul leaving his body.

His son was dead.

And now

He realized that he, too, deserved to die.

How could he have ever entertained the thought of pursuing Xiao Yi Xian?!

But just as he tried to lift his head

A foot stomped down on him.

His face was pressed into the dirt.

A cold voice entered his ears.

"Did I say you could get up?"

It was Wu Tian.

But

He wasn't trying to kill him.

Instead, it was for a different reason entirely.

He simply refused to let this man see the places he had touched on Xiao Yi Xian.

A Fond Farewell

Ignoring the crowd of insignificant ants, Wu Tian finally released his hold on Xiao Yi Xian.

With a gentle smile, he said, "I'm leaving now. I hope that the next time we meet, you'll still be that sweet and lovable girl."

Xiao Yi Xian smiled brightly.

"Overbearing man, I will! I definitely will!"

With that

Wu Tian unfurled his wings and soared into the sky.

However

This time, he paused mid air.

Looking back at Xiao Yi Xian one last time, he smiled.

Then

He disappeared into the vast night sky.

Xiao Yi Xian gazed at his departing figure, her eyes filled with longing.

She knew

She wasn't strong enough to keep him by her side.

But if she worked hard

If she mastered the Poison Scripture and honed her strength

Then maybe, just maybe

She'd catch up to him someday.

But just as she was lost in thought

A familiar voice suddenly echoed in her ear.

"Hey, Xiao Yi Xian My name isn't 'overbearing man.' It's Wu Tian."

Her eyes widened in surprise.

She immediately looked up at the sky

But 

There was no trace of him anymore.

Turning to the townspeople, she noticed they were all staring at her in awe.

That's when she realized

She was the only one who had heard his voice.

Her lips curled into a pout, and she muttered to herself:

"Hmph! Stupid overbearing man. Stupid, stupid overbearing man. Even when leaving, he just has to leave his mark on me."

"Wu Tian… what kind of name is that anyway?"

"Now I can't get that dumb name out of my head… so annoying!"
