The dragon space turned silent in an instant. Both of their eyes opened wide while stunned silently hearing Liu Shan's words.
Liliang Academy was not limited to a place to accommodate young cultivators to improve their abilities. But, the Liliang academy contained by the various golden opportunities that young cultivators could obtain. Whether it's various cultivation abilities, connections, knowledge and so on.
Hundreds, even thousands of people dream of entering into the Liliang academy. However, their expectations must be dashed because the selection given is very strict.
As for Liu Shan, he boldly said such a thing before the top brass of the academy.
“Hei, Liu Shan's. What did you just say?” muttered Sheng Tong.
Liu Shan alternately stared at Sheng Tong, the Khan elder, then ended up staring at Qing Yao.
“I will exit the academy and go to Huo.” country
His statement was made clear once again. Making those who heard him even more convinced that Liu Shan was not just talking.
Of course, Qing Yao was not happy to hear that and directly denied it.
“Don't be stubborn. It is not your job to go there!”
On the other hand, Bai Ling and Sheng Tong could not stay silent looking at him leaving the academy like that.
“Liu Shan, you just won the finals of the Liliang academy tournament. Moreover, getting into this academy was something extremely difficult. And you want to throw all that away just to risk yourself going to Huo country?” bai Ling said.
“I will not retract my words. If I come out of the academy, then the responsibility of Yao and all of you does not apply to protect me as a disciple. And I can go to Huo country without having to burden you guys,” Liu Shan explained.
“Do not joke. You think I'm gonna stay silent hear you want to go endanger yourself?!” refute Qing Yao.
“Since the beginning, I did not ask for permission. And I will go to Huo country of my own accord,” Liu Shan said.
The Khan elders, Sheng Tong and Bai Ling could only be speechless seeing Liu Shan's steadfastness. Only Qing Yao was the one who was extremely hard at refuting her decision back then. In fact, Qing Yao herself expended quite a bit of her Ki energy to suppress Liu Shan.
Wosch!
“Liu Shan, you stay here!” said Qing Yao.
The Ki energy he released was of course able to be sensed by everything inside the dragon room. Including Liu Shan who sensed how powerful Qing Yao was trying to hold him back.
But his decision was unanimous. Liu Shan stood firm with a sharp eye.
“I won't be forever in the academy. And to become stronger, I must go to Huo country. A bird that has been in a cage all his life will never learn and understand how to fly!” refute Liu Shan.
The situation is heating up between the two of them. And in that very instant, the Ki energy around Qing Yao's body increased steadily.
Wosch!
“Good.”
Sreth!
“Qing Yao, don't!”
Sheng Tong shouted instantly at Qing Yao who darted forward towards Liu Shan. When they thought that Qing Yao was going to stop Liu Shan forcibly, she actually hugged him tightly.
Everyone was stunned silently looking at him. Both his eyes and mouth were wide open as if speechless. It was inseparable for Liu Shan himself who felt Qing Yao hug him gently.
“I can't stop you. Even if I wanted to force it, but you will definitely turn out to hate me.”
Qing Yao was faced with a heavy situation. He could not see his disciple facing the dangers of the Demon clan, nor did he want to see his disciple hate him like the latter.
Slowly, the hug she took off. Qing Yao stared softly at Liu Shan right inside her eyes.
“Liu Shan, promise me one thing. You can't die for any reason.”
The promise was heavy, yet Qing Yao could not expect anything other than her safety. Liu Shan understood that. For a teacher who had seen her former disciple fall into the abyss of demons was a severe trauma for Qing Yao.
Liu Shan took a breath while opening both eyes slowly.
“I promise.”

The movement of the Demon clan made elder Khan take a big decision from the Liliang academy. Since they were the first to know about the existence and plans of the Demon clan, he sent Qing Yao as the most competent cultivator in the academy to go to the Feng country of the East.
On the other hand, Liu Shan would start his journey to go to Huo country. He was at the exit of Liliang academy and was next to a mystical eagle belonging to Qing Yao, Gu and also the elder Khan.
“You really are something yes. Denied Qing Yao and came out of the academy to go to Huo country. Very brave,” said elder Khan.
“To be honest I feel bad for Brother Yao. Though he was worried about me, but I was selfish like this,” Liu Shan said.
Elder Khan smiled faintly for a moment. He walked over and patted his shoulder softly.
“Son, sometimes you have to be selfish for a moment to reach your goal. And anyway, I agree with what he said. A bird can never fly if its whole life is in a cage.”
Hearing the elder Khan's words made Liu Shan feel a little more relieved.
“Thank you, elder Khan. And also-!”
Liu Shan had a chance to recall something before he left. However, elder Khan looked like he could read his thoughts and reply before he finished his words.
“Take it easy. Xiao Lin and your sister will be safe here,” said elder Khan.
The shoulder that felt stiff suddenly became tenuous. Liu Shan felt calm after hearing the elder Khan's words directly over the safety of Xiao Lin and Liu Siyue.
In order to make him not doubt his decision, Liu Shan decided to leave secretly.
“Until we meet again, elder Khan.”
“Good luck, Liu Shan.”
Liu Shan climbed up onto Gu's back. The giant eagle flapped its wings and took off into the air as fast as the wind.
Wusha!
The speed of a mystical eagle moving with Ki energy accompanying the acceleration of the body was something new to Liu Shan. Although he had previously ridden Gu with Qing Yao and Liu Siyue, Gu's speed increased even further than before.
While he was on his back, Liu Shan asked.
“Hey, I want to ask you something.”
“What?”
“You have long been a mystical animal belonging to Brother Yao. Then, did you go far like this no problem?”
“We the mystical animals who have made a contract with a human will be bound to each other. If anything happens to Miss, she just needs to say my name and my body will instantly disappear and be right next to her.”
“So yes.”
In the middle of the journey, Liu Shan sat quietly while looking at the system panel in front of his face. He opened the shop panel after previously buying his first items.

Seeing the matter of the shop panel also made Liu Shan a little interested in some things. For the first time he saw an HP potion pill with a Heroic level appear in the system. Moreover, there was a weapon he could buy there.
“(Pil potion will be a pity if I don't take it. Besides, this weapon)”
Looking at the remaining time of the system which only gave him 5 days of each item turnover within the store system, Liu Shan immediately bought it.

When Liu Shan was busy with the system, Gu suddenly glanced down. He who saw something immediately informed Liu Shan.
“Hey, we've arrived.”
