Chapter 87: Departure, Jia Ma Empire
Hearing this, Xiao Hu, who was next to Xiao Yu, also looked at Xiao Shan curiously.
He had always been curious about Xiao Ming, who rarely mingled with others when he was in the Xiao family.
After leaving the Xiao family for so many years, the only person in the entire Xiao family who knew him best was Xiao Shan, who had joined the Jia Nan Academy with him.
He had only met Xiao Ming a couple of times before, and to put it mildly, it had actually been a long time since he had seen Xiao Ming.
"Cousin Xiao Ming, he's gone to say goodbye to his master, let's go wait for him in the flying magical beast." Xiao Shan explained.
When the flying magical beast was about to arrive at Jia Nan City, Xiao Ming walked away from the flying magic beast alone and headed to his master's residence.
After all, the matter of picking up the others could be handled by Xiao Shan alone, there was no need for the two of them to go together.
Hearing Xiao Shan's explanation, Xiao Yu and Xiao Hu nodded their heads in bewilderment.
They knew that Xiao Ming had a master at the Jia Nan Academy, but they didn't know exactly which tutor he was, mainly because they had never actively inquired about such things.
"Alright, don't freeze here, hurry up and let's go." Xiao Shan turned around after walking two steps and found that both Xiao Yu and Xiao Hu were still stuck in the same place, so he couldn't help but urge.
"Let's go!"
......
Elder Huo's residence had not changed much, it was still the same small courtyard built entirely of bamboo.
Looking at the small quiet courtyard in front of him, Xiao Ming pushed open the courtyard door and slowly walked towards the room door, just as he was about to push it open, the room door was pushed open and a pretty face appeared in his eyes.
"Xiao Ming!"
Xiao Ming looked at the surprised young woman and smiled, "Long time no see you, Hu Jia, why are you here with the master?"
When Xiao Ming was looking for his master, Elder Huo, sometimes he also looked for Hu Jia, so over the years, they haven't had much of a connection between the two of them.
"My grandfather asked me to deliver something to Grandpa Huo, I didn't expect you to come today. Speaking of which, it's been a few months since you've come to see me." Hu Jia pouted as she tossed her hair back coquettishly.
In the intervening six years, Hu Jia's body had gradually grown, and at 14 years old and in her prime, this move had a different flavor.
"Sorry, I've been quite busy." Xiao Ming spread his hands helplessly and said, cultivation at the Dou King realm did take longer, putting aside everything else, he had not even gone to his master's house that often, "Let's not talk about it, it's good that you're here, you saved me the effort of looking for you specifically."
"Well, what's wrong?" Hu Jia's eyes looked a little puzzled.
"I'm going back to the Jia Ma Empire."
Hearing that, Hu Jia's brow furrowed, but she quickly relaxed as she softly asked, "You're leaving today?"
"Yes, I came this time to say goodbye to my master."
"When are you coming back?"
"As short as one year and as long as two or three years, I'm not quite sure."
Xiao Ming said quietly, although he had a general expectation in his heart, but with the life simulator, he knew that no matter how well he plans some things, there will be some omissions, as evidenced by the simulated life of the simulator that always had some unexpected events.
After hearing these words, Hu Jia's expression was a bit gloomy and slightly self-deprecating. "At first I thought... I even told you to wait for me at the Inner Academy, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye you had already graduated while I'm still at the Dou Practitioner realm..."
"This...," Xiao Ming didn't know how to take this comment, but good thing Hu Jia just laughed at herself, and then said, "The Jia Ma Empire is not like Jia Nan Academy, there won't be anyone from the academy to help you if something happens. So you should be careful until you come back."
If there were Jia Nan Academy students here right now, they would be surprised to see that the famous little witch of Jia Nan Academy cared so much about a fellow student.
It should be known that as Hu Jia grew up, there were already quite a few people who had started flirting with her because they valued her status as the granddaughter of Jia Nan Academy's Deputy Headmaster and had the mentality to hang onto her status, but she had never put a good face on anyone, so now this scene, in stark contrast to the previous one, would naturally surprise people.
"I understand, it's dangerous outside, I'll act carefully." Xiao Ming laughed lightly.
"It's good that you understand..." Hu Jia muttered and moved out of the way, "I won't delay you anymore, go find Grandpa Huo, I still have to go back to my grandfather to let him know that I fulfilled his request."
After saying that, Hu Jia walked past Xiao Ming to walk away into the distance.
Looking at Hu Jia's back, Xiao Ming was silent for a moment, but still turned his head and entered the house.
"You're back."
Inside the house, Elder Huo was still the same as before, nothing had changed, he was currently sitting on a reclining chair, and his eyes looked at Xiao Ming who had just entered.
"I heard the whole conversation you had with that Hu Jia girl just now, remember to keep yourself safe."
That Xiao Ming would return to his family, Elder Huo had expected it, it could be said that he had been away for more than eight years before Xiao Ming decided to return, which was already out of his expectations, but it was understandable when he thought about the fact that both of his parents had died.
He had no say in whether Xiao Ming wanted to return.
After all, young people always have to leave and go on their way, let alone return to his family, and he had taught his precious disciple everything he knew over the years.
His disciple was also exceptionally competent and had been able to surpass him, so now he could only advise him to stay safe.
Xiao Ming nodded silently, indicating that he would pay attention, and then took out another bottle of jade from his storage ring.
"Master, this is a Zong Breaking Pill, a small token of appreciation from your disciple."
Seeing the jade bottle in Xiao Ming's hand, Elder Fire revealed a look of surprise.
"Zong Breaking Pill! You've made rapid progress in your alchemy skills in these few months, you can already refine pills of this difficulty."
In fact, Xiao Ming did not refine the Zong Breaking Pill, the Zong Breaking Pill in his hand he actually obtained from the simulator, but at his master's excitement, he smiled and handed the jade bottle to him without explaining anything.
"Since it's a token of appreciation, I won't refuse." Looking at his disciple, Elder Huo stroked his white beard, since Xiao Ming could already refine the Zong Breaking Pill, there was no need for him to refuse his disciple's wishes.
After receiving the pill, Elder Huo gave him some more advice, waved his hand, and let Xiao Ming leave.
After leaving the small courtyard, Xiao Ming looked back toward the house before two wings appeared on his back and he rushed violently into the sky.
Hearing the commotion in the small courtyard, Elder Huo inside the house sighed, "He has grown up..."
Evidently, farewells were always sad.
......
With Xiao Ming's speed, it wouldn't take long to fly from Elder Huo's residence to Jia Nan City.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Ming landed in front of Xiao Shan amidst countless envious and astonished looks.
"How is it, have you picked up the others?". Ignoring the gazes coming from all sides, looking at Xiao Shan who was waiting alone beside the Griffin Beast, Xiao Ming asked.
"Done, everyone is inside."
Xiao Shan pointed at the wooden house on the Griffin Beast and said, this Griffin Beast they borrowed had a wooden house, without it, staying on the back of the Griffin Beast all the time was fine for them, but Xiao Yu and Xiao Hu couldn't bear it.
"It's good that everyone is already here, let's go up together, it's time to go home!"
