C17 Run away Late at Night

"Young master, please rest first. This servant will take his leave." A maidservant respectfully closed the door and left the area.

A small head suddenly popped out from the bed in the room. The head looked left and right, and upon seeing that no one was there, a figure instantly rushed out from the bed.

The owner of this head was none other than Sacred Xuan. At this moment, he was fully dressed in black tight-fitting clothes, carrying a wooden sword on his back, and holding a compass in his hand. He looked just like a professional Daoist.

"I heard that this compass can avoid those people. I wonder if that's true or not." Sacred Xuan stared at the compass in his hand as he calmly opened the door.

When they reached the courtyard, Sheng Xuan took out the compass and carefully headed outside.

"We have to be more alert tonight. Tomorrow is the coronation ceremony!" Just as he was about to leave the hospital, a voice came from outside. He was so shocked that he almost made a sound, before turning his gaze to the compass, upon which several specks of light were currently close to him. With a sigh, Sheng Xuan turned his gaze back to the wall, "I can only flip over it."

As soon as Sheng Xuan said this, he jumped up on top of the wall. Then, he restrained his aura and carefully went over.

At this time, a group of patrolling people suddenly appeared in front of them. Sheng Xuan once again turned around and hid behind a wall.

"Whew ~ So annoying." Sacred Xuan patted his chest and sighed.

"I didn't expect our security to be so tight."

The Sacred Xuan took out his compass and began to avoid the guards. Just like that, he slowly made his way out of the ancient residence …

At the same time, in the late night of the Spirit Valley, wild beasts suddenly ran rampant everywhere. These demon beasts were normally used to protect the Spirit Valley, but tonight there were so many of them.

"Roar!"

"Stop screaming, I'll chop you into pieces!" Sheng Xuan looked at the tiger-shaped demonic beast furiously before taking out his Xuanyuan medallion. When the demonic beast saw the medallion, fear actually appeared in its huge eyes before the tiger-shaped demonic beast retreated to the side.

Just like that, Sheng Xuan continued walking. Although there were roars of beasts coming from all directions, this was all fine because it was late at night and he didn't need to be afraid of alarming anyone else. But what he didn't know was this. This was Xuanyuan family's territory and experts were as common as clouds. All of his petty tricks had been noticed by one person.

As soon as Sheng Xuan finally reached the exit, he had used up almost all of his physical strength. Even he himself was puzzled as to why such an easy task wouldn't be so easy tonight.

However, just as he was about to leave, a figure startled him, causing him to immediately stop in his tracks.

"Xuan'er, coming here late at night instead of being Duke Zhou's companion, are you here to accompany me, this old man?" Wu Guang who was half-leaning on a tree spoke to the dumbstruck Sheng Xuan in an indifferent tone.

"That … uh …" Grandpa Wu Guang, if I said that I was here to admire the moon, would you believe me? " After all, this was the first time he had run away from home, and the first time he had been caught red-handed. No matter how calm he was, it was impossible for him to calm down.

Wu Guang cast a sidelong glance at the starry night sky and smiled faintly. "Wu Shengxuan, have you made your decision yet?"

Sacred Xuan was stupefied by this, "Is this the first time Grandpa Wu Guang has called me so formally?"

In a flash, Sacred Xuan's face was filled with determination as he solemnly said, "Grandpa Wu Guang, I've made up my mind. I'm going to wander the continent, I don't want to be a falcon in a cage, I want to become a wolf in the grassland. I want to become stronger, I want to become stronger on my own." With every word that came out of his mouth, Sacred Xuan's body couldn't help but tremble, and then his aura rose step by step as he rushed towards Wu Guang.

Wu Guang raised an eyebrow after hearing these words. Then, his body shook, and a visible black light flowed out from his body towards the Sacred Xuan.

Under the cover of the black light, Sacred Xuan only felt his mind explode before Sacred Xuan's body felt like it was filled with lead, only feeling as if it weighed a thousand pounds.

"So this is the aura of a powerful expert? It is indeed very strong." In the face of this aura, he could only passively endure. Moreover, this was the result of Wu Guang not using his full strength, but if Wu Guang had used his full strength, then the Sacred Xuan wouldn't have been able to survive.

"What? Can you hold? I haven't even used my full strength yet." Wu Guang said with an indifferent expression. This might be the last time he would instruct Sacred Xuan, so he would naturally remember this in his heart.

Sacred Xuan tried his best to endure it as he tried to mobilize the elemental energy within his body, but all of this was useless.

"Ah!" "Roar!" Suddenly, a draconic roar came from the body of Sheng Xuan, shaking the entire sky.

"Kid, not bad. The Azure Dragon clan's bloodline cannot be underestimated." Wu Guang thought to himself, but the power in his hands was even more intense, as if they could crush the entire Sacred Xuan.

"I won't admit defeat!" Sacred Xuan's lips curled up in a smile. His purple eyes were incomparably fiendish in the dark night. Then, he looked at Wu Guang and smiled, "Master, I must leave!"

Wu Guang curled his lips, withdrew his aura and smiled: "As you wish."

Wu Guang suddenly stopped his training, but Sheng Xuan stumbled to the ground, his head covered in sweat, his entire body wrapped in a pale gold light. Wu Guang looked at him in relief, this was the main protective ability of the Diamond Protection Technique.

This storage ring is for you, it contains the things you need to advance to the Core Formation stage. There are also some things your mother told me to bring you, so I won't give you too many things. Wu Guang spoke sincerely, before handing a storage ring over to Sheng Xuan.

As soon as Sacred Xuan received the ring, he suddenly felt Wu Guang's hand tremble.

"Give me the wooden sword." As Wu Guang spoke, he took out the wooden sword from Sheng Xuan's back, placing both hands on the wooden sword and counting several times before handing it back to him.

"Master, help me take care of my mother. Xuan'er is unfilial." After receiving the wooden sword, Sacred Xuan was about to plop to his knees, but then was pulled back up by an invisible force.

Wu Guang stood straight, silently stroking his beard and said, "Men have gold under their knees. Leave this to your mother. Leave quickly, remember to go home early."

"En!" Sacred Xuan straightened his knees, nodded his head, and walked out of the valley without looking back.

At this time, the sky had already begun to brighten. A glimmer of light landed on this piece of land, causing the youth's thin shadow to lengthen on the ground, longer and longer, until it disappeared from the horizon.

"Come out, he's gone." Wu Guang helplessly looked to the side.

"I really don't understand you. You want to see me, but you don't dare to."

Soon after, two women walked out of the darkness. They were Ye Ling and Yunque.

"Aunt Ye, why didn't you stop him?" Yunque endured the tears that welled up in his eyes and asked, choked with sobs.

"Because I know him." A trace of worry flashed across Ye Lingmei's eyes. Looking at the distant back figure that had long disappeared, she let out a deep sigh. Then, she clasped her hands together and prayed in her heart, praying for her son …

In the distance, Sacred Xuan was standing atop a tree, watching all of this with purple eyes. Two streams of clear tears flowed down his cheeks. Perhaps these were the very few tears he had ever shed in his life.

"Goodbye, Spirit Valley. Goodbye, mother. World, I'm coming!" Sacred Xuan withdrew his purple eyes, cast aside his worries, and faced the darkness of the night while carrying the wooden sword on his back. His face was filled with unswerving determination as he rushed towards the dawn!
