āWhere⦠did you go? And why are you here now?ā
Luo Xue stared at Ye Qingtang with a complicated expression.
āLetās leave first.ā Ye Qingtang smiled.
Luo Xue and You Yun were taken aback.
Leave? This was the land of despair in the Ancient God Karma Tunnel. How could they leave?
However, to their disbelief, Ye Qingtang gave a casual wave of her hand casually and in the blink of an eye, the cursed hell around them completely disappeared and they returned to the outside world.
When they returned to their senses, Luo Xue and You Yun realized that Ye Qingtang had already vanished without a trace as if she had never appeared.
Nevertheless, Ye Qingtangās words echoed in their minds.
āIāll give you three hundred years to cultivate your way to having a Perfected Immortal body. We will meet in the upper realm thenā¦ā
You Yun muttered as she stared into the distance.
A thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye. The Netherworld Academy was still the same as before. Although it had been a thousand years, nothing had changed.
At the back of the mountain, Ye Qingtang appeared behind a man and patted his left shoulder.
Nangong Lie turned around instinctively.
When he saw who it was, Nangong Lieās pupils constricted. Disbelief and shock appeared in his eyes.
āYou⦠youā¦ā Nangong Lieās body trembled as he pointed at Ye Qingtang.
āYou donāt recognize me anymore?ā Ye Qingtang smiled.
āBoss⦠Boss?!ā Nangong Lie grabbed Ye Qingtangās arm excitedly. āIs that you? Boss, is that really you?! Impossible, is this an illusion?!ā
As he spoke, Nangong Lie slapped himself.
āItās not an illusion⦠Is it really you, Boss?!ā Nangong Lie babbled in shock.
The youth in white standing beside Nangong Lie appeared unchanged even though a thousand years had passed.
Before long, Yun Chen, Jing Ze, Qin Feng, Lei Yan and the others received the news and returned to the Netherworld Academy.
Everyone was in disbelief when they saw Ye Qingtang.
Ye Qing had gone missing for a thousand years. They had tried to investigate and search for their elusive teacher but failed to find any clues.
Who would have thought that their boss would return to the Netherworld Academy after a thousand years?
āWhereās Mu Ziying?ā Ye Qingtang did not see Mu Ziying.
āBoss, Mu Ziying has already returned to the Puppet Emperorās side. She is the Puppet Emperorās granddaughter after all. Now that she is in charge over there, we rarely have contact with her.ā Lei Yan explained as he stared at Ye Qingtang.
Ye Qingtang nodded. āI see.ā
āBoss, should we inform Mu Ziying? If she knows that Boss is back, sheāll be so happy that sheāll fly into the sky!ā Nangong Lie said hurriedly.
Ye Qingtang smiled. āSure.ā
That same day, Lei Yan found a way to inform Mu Ziying. After half a day, Mu Ziying, who had not changed much, returned to the Netherworld Academy.
The moment Mu Ziying saw Ye Qingtang, a mist appeared in her eyes and she hugged Ye Qingtang. āBoss, where did you go?!ā
Ye Qingtangās lips curled up slightly as she stroked Mu Ziyingās long hair. āItās not important where I went. Whatās important is that we are together now, no?ā
āThatās right, thatās right. Boss hasnāt changed at all. Just like an old demon!ā Lei Yan hurriedly nodded.
Qin Feng and Mu Ziying glared at Lei Yan.
Late into the night, teacher and disciples sat by the fire, talking about the past. Waves of laughter and joy seemed to echo forever.
A few days later, Ye Qingtang quietly left the Netherworld Academy and returned to the upper realm.
Before she left, Ye Qingtang quietly infused divinity into Qin Feng and the others. They would meet again in the upper realm hundreds of years later.
