Chapter 692 Return (2/2)

Feeling the gradual fusion of the two Sacred Dragon Qi, his eyes flashed.

A moment later, Zhou Yuan lifted his head. The two mighty forces in the void continued to collide for a while, causing the heaven and earth to tremble, but both Palace Master Sheng Yuan and Sect Master Qing Yang evidently did not intend to truly fight. In the end, they both retreated.

“Your Cangxuan Sect cultivated a good disciple, but unfortunately that disciple won’t last long. Soon, he will follow Wu Huang’s path.” The voice of Palace Master Sheng Yuan echoed throughout heaven and earth.

“It’s unfortunate that a good seedling, which rarely appears in Cangxuan Sect, won’t last for much longer.”

“Haha.”

The laughter of Palace Master Sheng Yuan gradually faded away, and the mighty power that hovered in the air also escaped into the void.

The people who knew the reason shifted their gazes onto Zhou Yuan, some of them filled with regret. The seedling was indeed very good, and if he could continue to cultivate in the Cangxuan Sect, then the Cangxuan sect may perhaps gain a top expert of the Heavenly Sun stage or even the Nascent Source stage.

But if he were to go to the Cangmang Continent to fight against an expert of the Divine Dwelling stage, then it did not bode well for him.

Zhou Yuan seemed to not notice those gazes. His expression was calm, without the slightest ripple of emotion.

“If you can bear it, you don’t have to go back. The Cangxuan Sect can find a way to protect your father and mother.” A voice drilled into Zhou Yuan's ear, which Zhou Yuan could distinguish it to be Sect Master Qing Yang’s.

Zhou Yuan was silent for a moment. Sect Master Qing Yang only said he would protect his father and mother, and not the Great Zhou. In doing so, the Great Zhou would become a sacrifice.

Hu.

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, but his expression gradually became determined.

“Thank you Sect Master, but this is a responsibility that I can’t escape from. If I retreat today, the drive in my heart will also disappear. This will be fatal to my future cultivation.”

“At that time, I’ll just be the same as everybody else.”

“I’m not content with being mediocre. This is a battle of beliefs. Only when I face the edge of the blade can I take a huge step forward on the future path.”

Zhou Yuan whispered to himself. Over the years, he had faced a lot of difficulties, but he gritted his teeth and persevered every time. This was precisely because of the belief that supported him. But if he chose to give in, then, some time in the future, he most likely would lose the confidence to persist.

Sect Master Qing Yang naturally heard his quiet voice. Half a second later a voice sounded again, “Since you have made up your mind, then go.”

In his voice, there was relief. Compared to Zhou Yuan's talent, Sect Master Qing Yang valued his mentality even more.

Zhou Yuan nodded, solemnly bowed to the void then turned around to face Chu Qing, Li Qingchan and many other disciples of the Cangxuan Sect, and bowed once again.

“Zhou Yuan wants to thank all the senior and junior brothers and sisters who protected me along the way!”

Chu Qing had a complicated expression on his face. Li Qingchang’s beautiful eyes fell on the youngster in the distance, and said quietly, “Zhou Yuan, when you return, the disciples of the Cangxuan Sect will drink till we are drunk to celebrate.”

The next moment, a deafening sound rang out from Distant Saint City.

“The disciples of the Cangxuan Sect wishes that senior brother will return victorious!”

The noise shook the city, but also attracted countless complex gazes.

Zhou Yuan felt a warmth in his heart as he looked at them. He then smiled and with a wave of his hand, turned around without hesitation. He vanished in a flash and reappeared in the tremendous transfer point in the centre of the city.

Buzz!

There was a bright pillar of light that swallowed Zhou Yuan's figure.

When the figure of Zhou Yuan disappeared, the roar of the disciples of the Cangxuan Sect continued to ring over Distant Saint City.
