Chapter 3908 4.1508 Temporary Farewell

The man flew through the air like a kite with a broken string.

Young Master Qin the fifth didn't know how others felt, but as he watched Qin Qi's flying figure cut a brilliant arc against the sunset, he truly felt an indescribable mix of emotions.

He looked at the unbridled figure ahead, took a few steps forward, and said coldly, "When it comes to bullying the weak, I'm more skilled at it than you."

With one strike of the ruler, he broke the man's left arm.

Little Five Qin inexplicably felt that the little girl's unrestrained and willful demeanor was incredibly dazzling.

He felt that he might be starting to understand this person a little.

By this time, the beast tide had completely receded, and night slowly fell. Gusts of night wind carried the strong smell of blood, making the whole scene quite unsettling.

Mias and his group, who were several beats behind, finally reached the small base. Looking at the scattered remains on the ground, their expressions were a little subtle.

"Uh, is no one going to tell us what happened here?" Allie turned to look in the little girl's direction.

Qi Xuanxuan, seeing this, immediately glared at him. "What kind of expression is that? These corpses on the ground have nothing to do with our Qiao Qiao."

Allie chuckled.

How could they be unrelated? Half of these corpses on the ground are probably your team's doing, aren't they?

Qiao Mu, however, didn't pay any mind to Allie's slightly provocative gaze. She turned and softly asked Duan Yue, "Are you leaving now?"

Duan Yue nodded, giving her a slight smile. "Don't worry, we'll see each other in the academy very soon."

"Then we should also go back," Qiao Mu nodded, glancing at Mo Lian.

The latter naturally nodded in agreement.

What Duan Yue said was likely true. The Ghost-faced Hall Master from Heavenly Fortune bringing so many people and keeping them in Phoenix Wood Forest must have had some other considerations.

It was right for them to return to Dragon Flame City. Staying in Phoenix Wood Forest, they wouldn't receive any news, and even if they returned to the academy now, they would still feel unsettled.

"Then, a temporary farewell," Duan Yue smiled, looking at them. His gaze briefly swept over Mo Lian. "Take good care of her."

Immediately, he didn't dare to linger on the little poker face's expression, quickly turning away without another word, and left on his own.

A long, lingering melancholy, with tender emotions.

He felt that if he stayed for even another second, his reluctance would deepen even more, making it painfully difficult.

The little girl pursed her lips, her eyes watching his retreating back, her brows subtly furrowing.

She had no idea at this moment that things in the world were unpredictable, and after this separation, when they met again, things would be completely different...

"Will he be okay on his own?" the little girl asked worriedly.

Mo Lian couldn't help but twitch his mouth, squeezing her little paw. "Qiao Qiao."

"What do you want?" the little girl asked huffily.

"Can't we stop asking if others will be okay all the time..."

Qiao Mu's expressionless little face instantly showed a hint of cracking. She turned to glare at the fellow and scoffed at him.

Mo Lian smiled at her, seeing that her previously heavy mood had been somewhat soothed. He then said with a laugh, "Don't worry."

He held her small hand, pulling her along. He gently comforted her, "He's not stupid. If he encounters any difficult situation, he'll naturally send us a message."

"You treat him like a little white rabbit, but he's shrewder than anyone."

Qiao Mu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said softly, "I just hope everyone lives well."

As for anything else, she asked for nothing more.

Qiao Mu lowered her gaze.
