章節 77: Departure

The sun had just begun to rise over the Qilin Mountain Range, casting a golden hue over the lush forests and the small village of Fudi nestled within. The villagers were already bustling about, preparing for a special day. Today was the day Jiang Ting, their prodigious talent, would leave the village to embark on his journey.

Jiang Ting stood at the edge of the village, looking back at the place he had called home for all his life. He was fifteen now, and though his grandfather had left the village a few months ago, the wisdom and training he imparted had prepared Jiang Ting for the path ahead. His heart was filled with a mixture of excitement and sadness. He would miss the serene mornings, the tranquil streams, and the friendly faces of the villagers.
