Chapter 922 –Departure, Bloodstained Abyss

The group listened to Di Beichen’s resolute words, a faint smile lingering in their eyes.

It was well known that Baili Hongzhuang held a special place in Di Beichen’s heart. With Di Beichen by her side, there was no need for them to worry.

Xia Zhiqing held Baili Hongzhuang’s hand, her beautiful face showing a hint of reluctance and regret.

“Hongzhuang, if you don’t come back to the academy with us, I’ll be bored.”

Since meeting Baili Hongzhuang during the academy’s enrollment, Xia Zhiqing had considered her as her best friend. She had already gotten used to Baili Hongzhuang’s company over the past time period.

Now that they were finally returning to the academy, Baili Hongzhuang had to leave, and Xia Zhiqing couldn’t help but feel a bit lonely.

Baili Hongzhuang patted Xia Zhiqing’s shoulder, her exquisite face radiating a bright smile.

“Beichen and I are just going out to gain experience. We will definitely come back to the academy. I hope that when I return, you will have already broken through to the Red Realm.”

Baili Hongzhuang cherished her friendship with Xia Zhiqing.

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiqing’s slightly disappointed face once again brightened with a smile. “I will definitely work hard to cultivate. I’ll be waiting for you to come back to the Canglan Academy.”

Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly. “Alright, it won’t be long before I return to the academy to find you.”

Zhan Yunfeng also walked to Baili Hongzhuang’s side. “Hongzhuang, be careful during your journey. We’ll all be waiting for you and Beichen to come back to the Canglan Academy.”

“I will,” Baili Hongzhuang replied.

The group didn’t say much more. After a simple farewell, Xia Zhiqing and the others continued towards the Canglan Academy, while Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen got in the carriage once again and headed towards the Bloodstained Abyss.

“Beichen, how far is the Bloodstained Abyss from here?” Baili Hongzhuang looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with some curiosity. The Bloodstained Abyss, formerly known as the Snowy Abyss, was supposed to be a place covered in ice and snow.

“The Bloodstained Abyss is located in the Tianlong Snow Mountain, quite far from here. But once we reach the next neighboring country, we’ll take a flying beast, which will make the journey much faster.”

Di Beichen gazed at Baili Hongzhuang with tender and doting eyes. This time, they would go together for this experience.

Since they met up, they had mostly been with the cultivators from the academy. It was rare for them to spend time alone like this.

He really enjoyed these moments alone with Baili Hongzhuang.

A hint of understanding appeared in Baili Hongzhuang’s clear eyes, and a gentle smile curved her lips. “By the time we reach the neighboring country, my injuries should be completely healed.”

It was all thanks to Di Beichen’s arrangements. The carriage ride had been much smoother, and her injuries had been healing steadily these past few days. Once they arrived at the neighboring country, she would be back to her usual self.

This way, it wouldn’t affect their upcoming journey.

Di Beichen held Baili Hongzhuang’s delicate and soft hand, his left arm embracing her shoulder. His black pupils sparkled with satisfaction and delight.

“I can rest assured when your injuries fully recover,” Di Beichen said with a gentle smile.

Baili Hongzhuang’s smile remained, but her gaze shifted to the front of the carriage. “The coachman has been with us for quite some time. How did you arrange this?”

“I’ve already talked to him. Once we reach the neighboring country, he can return to the Qingxiao Kingdom. He has worked hard during this time, and I won’t mistreat him.”

Baili Hongzhuang nodded lightly. “That’s good to hear.”
