3098 Scram Immediately
The Lanyang Academy student’s eyes widened instantly, and he emitted a sharp scream. “What? I cleared five checkpoints and defeated six generals! I worked so hard to earn the qualifications for this secret realm! How can you just revoke them like this?”
“Was I not explicit?” Holy Son Miyan cast a cold gaze. “You lack the qualifications to accompany us! Leave immediately.”
The Lanyang Academy student’s face flushed red as he turned to his companions from the same academy.
Seeing their cold stares, a sense of dismay gripped his heart. He felt a pang of desolation.
Why were they treating him like this?
Why were they driving him away?
He had merely committed a small error that any young person could make—he was impulsive. It wasn’t as if the situation couldn’t be rectified.
Moreover, everyone was unharmed. Besides his own injuries, no one else was hurt.
Why were they forcing him to leave?
The Lanyang Academy student couldn’t fathom it, no matter how he pondered. His face twisted slightly as he stood rigidly in front of everyone, unwilling to budge.
The Holy Son paid him no mind. He had already decided to dismiss the student, and the individual’s opinion held no significance.
Holy Son Miyan lowered her head, surveying the scene below.
The rocks on both sides of the narrow path had ceased rolling. Boulders cluttered the road, completely blocking the way.
Holy Son Miyan instinctively massaged her temples in frustration. “The passages below are all obstructed.”
“There are two options now. The first is to use spiritual energy to ascend the mountain.”
“The second option, which lacks foresight, is to continue on foot and navigate around the large rock. We only need to endure a bit longer and exit this passage. Once we move a bit further, we’ll be beyond the no-fly zone.”
“Climbing the mountain would be too draining.” Mu Xingchen glanced down at Li’l Sis, Mu Rouxuan, who rested with closed eyes against the mountain wall. A hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.
Rouxuan’s stamina simply couldn’t withstand such exertion!
Earlier, when Young Sir Dou distributed the pills given by Qiaoqiao for strength replenishment, Rouxuan stubbornly refused to take them. Now, Rouxuan’s condition was the most precarious in the entire team.
Zhongli Zhiwei broke free and sneered, “What else can we do if we don’t climb the mountain? Various-sized stones are blocking the path down there! We might not even find a way out.”
“That won’t happen.” The Holy Son shook his head. “These stones only obstruct the narrow path below. Our journey is only slightly more challenging than before. Compared to scaling the mountain, it’s likely to be easier.”
“Then we’ll follow the Holy Son’s advice. Let’s descend and continue our journey,” a few students from the Imperial Academy agreed.
“Alright.” Hearing that the path below was less challenging, the group nodded in agreement.
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao remained indifferent. After all, she didn’t have to walk herself.
Mu Xingchen glanced at Mu Rouxuan and sighed. Once again, she had to carry her and slide down the mountain wall with the help of the rope.
The group pressed on through the rain. The Lanyang Academy student trailed behind, not daring to get too close but unwilling to leave their group.
Other Lanyang Academy students couldn’t bear it and whispered, “Should we plead with His Excellency the Holy Son?”
“I doubt there’s room for negotiation,” another replied, shaking his head.
