บท 226: Northern Heavens Continent

The next morning

Mu Chen was prepared to leave. A slender, elegant girl stood before the building, watching him with bright eyes. Last night, Mu Chen had informed her that he was going on a mission with Su Xuan’s party. Even though they’d only be apart for a short while, the girl was still rather reluctant to let him go. But ultimately, she didn’t hinder Mu Chen. She, too, needed some time to quiet down and cultivate.

“Then, I’ll be going.”

Mu Chen lightly smiled as he moved closer to the girl.

“Okay. Be careful.” Luo Li lightly nodded. Her hands straightened out the wrinkles in Mu Chen’s clothes, like a newlywed wife. The gesture filled Mu Chen’s eyes with gentleness.

“Don’t push yourself too hard in cultivation, while I’m not around. It’s true that ‘learning is moving forwards and not advancing is moving backwards’, but you still can’t be too hard on yourself. It’ll have a negative effect, instead.” Mu Chen sternly reminded.

“I know.” Luo Li nodded.
