Chapter 195: Come With Me
Ning left Kaezir and Mikaela with their shocked faces and moved to the people from the Deepskull island.
“Doctor Ning congratulations.”
“That was amazing, Doctor Ning.”
“How did you tame that monster?”
Multiple congratulations and questions appeared one after another, which Ning just smiled throughout and reached Gion and Yelca.
“There you are Doctor Ning, you did amazing back there. You won us the tournament,” Gion said.
“Haha, we can go back with a proud smile now,” Yelca said.
Ning smiled and then dropped the bomb. “Sect leaders, I am leaving now,” he said.
“Huh? What do you mean? Why are you leaving now?” Gion asked.
“You still haven’t taken your rewards, doctor Ning,” Yelca reminded.
“I don’t need those. I asked the host to pass everything along to you guys. As for why I’m leaving, the answer is simple, I got bored,” Ning said.
“Well, not exactly bored, I guess. You see, I didn’t expect to spend so much time in the Scattered Isles as I did. I was interested in a few different things at first and joined various sects, but after I got the experience, I needed to leave but I couldn’t for some reason.”
“Finally, I can, so I decided to waste no time and leave,” Ning said.
“Sect leader Gion, please take care of Anya for me. She is a fantastic little girl and will be of great asset to you. Who knows, she might be the one to win this whole thing for you in the next three years,” Ning said.
“She is the same as me, capable in both body and Qi. I’m sure that once your two sects join, she will be the most important person there,” Ning said.
“Also, I have left my entire medical knowledge with her, so let her go out and treat people from time to time.”
Gion smiled and asked, “You seem quite worried about the little girl. Why didn’t you take her with you?”
“I’m a rogue cultivator who can survive anywhere. But she is a young girl who is barely starting her journey in cultivation. I don’t want her life to be as harsh as mine could be sometimes,” Ning said.
“Don’t worry, Doctor Ning. We will treat her like we treat you,” Yelca said.
Ning needed nothing more than that. “Very well then, I shall leave now. Goodbye everyone, if fate wills it, we will meet again.”
Ning bowed towards them once and started walking away. He didn’t look back once and directly went out of the gates of the arena.
The hotel he stayed at was towards the south, the ship he came in also was towards the south. However, Ning wasn’t going there, he was going north. He was now going to go to the northern continent.
Ning stopped for a moment and looked at the various people that we’re still focusing on the massive screen from outside. Even though the tournament had ended, they were waiting for the reward ceremony.
Ning saw Yelca and Gion hurriedly walk upstairs to accept the reward. Ning felt a little melancholic seeing this, but he immediately let go of such emotions and turned around.
He was determined now and wasn’t going to turn around anymore.
He made his way to the northern gates and booked a ticket for a ship that was going to go to an island up north. Ning was going to take the scenic path up north.
The cold breeze of the sea moved his long hair as he stayed on the deck and looked at everything. Everything in front of him was nothing but ocean, but Ning knew that around 250 kilometers up north, there was a major city in one of the islands.
Ning would drop there and then take another ship from there to another island where he would —
AHEM
Someone coughed from behind him. Ning suddenly sent out his divine sense and was surprised when he saw who it was.
“Oh, might I ask what you are doing here, Sect Leader Mallus?” he asked as he turned around. Behind him was Mallus and the rest of the disciples of the Dazzling sect.
“Oh, what a coincidence, junior Ning. You see, we were returning back to our sect. We have spent a bit too long here,” Mallus said with a fake smile.
“I see. Then you must be tired from your journey. I am too. How about we both go to our rooms and take our deserved rest,” Ning said.
“Haha, we both know what’s happening here junior. You have something I want, and I am going to get it,” Mallus said.
“Oh, what might it be?” Ning asked. He had a general idea, but he still wanted Mallus to say it himself.
“The Angel’s Touch. That is something I need to reach the Nascent Cultivation realm. After that, I will be the strongest person in the entire lower half of the northern continent,” he said.
Ning smirked a little and asked, “Oh, you weren’t here for the mid-grade Spirit Artifact I showed on the stage today or any of my beasts?”
That caught Mallus’s attention a bit. Gai came up to him and whispered something in his ear. He looked towards Jan and asked, “Is it true that his bird killed you before you could see it?”
“Yes, sect leader,” Jan replied.
“I see, it seems junior Ning has a surprisingly high number of exotic stuff that we have never seen before. Can you tell us where you got them?” Mallus asked.
“Oh, you know, here and there. I find stuff lying around and it turns out to be gold,” Ning started talking big.
“Sigh, I guess junior Ning doesn’t want to speak so easily. Then I must insist you come with us so we can persuade you a little,” Mallus said.
“I’m afraid I can’t do that,” Ning said. “Instead, how about you come with me?”
Suddenly, Ning disappeared. Mallus was surprised for a second, but on the next second, he felt a hand lay on his shoulder. Same thing for Gai as well; he too felt a hand on his shoulder.
After that, they all disappeared.
