In fact, everything was just as Baili Hongzhuang and Dongfang Yu had expected.
Jian Qingqiu had anticipated the unfavorable situation as early as the day of the finals, but by the time she realized it, it seemed like it was already too late.
As the vice principal of Canglan Academy, Dongfang Yu was naturally not a foolish person. After some contemplation, he understood the key points of the situation.
Although he wanted the academy to prosper and make a name for himself, if the academy had become a subsidiary of the royal family, what meaning would he have as the vice principal?
Therefore, when Jian Qingqiu mentioned discussing future cooperation with him, Dongfang Yu directly declined, claiming that there were urgent matters at the academy. He didn't even meet Jian Qingqiu and hastily left with the team from the academy.
He had to return to the academy and sort out all the crucial matters. Continuing to negotiate with Jian Qingqiu would only dig himself into a deeper hole.
Jian Qingqiu wasn't a good person either. If she found herself in trouble, she naturally wanted to bring down Beihai Academy with her. However, she wasn't that foolish.
After leaving the borders of Qingxiao Empire, the crisis that belonged to the empire was completely resolved.
"We've finally left the borders of Qingxiao Empire. It feels so refreshing!"
On horseback, Xia Zhiqing couldn't help but open her arms wide. The days in Qingxiao Empire had been so oppressive, and now that they had left, she felt that the air was filled with a fresh fragrance.
"We're finally going back to the academy. This time, our journey was truly full of danger but ended safely."
A joyful smile bloomed on Zhan Yunfeng's face. During this period, her relationship with Xia Zhiqing had also become much closer.
Everyone was extremely happy. For them, it was unlikely that they would ever return to Qingxiao Empire.
Among all of them, Liu QinYue was the quietest. However, even she couldn't help but smile brightly on her beautiful face.
But at this moment, the carriage slowly came to a halt, and Beihai Cheng and Baili Hongzhuang walked down together.
Seeing this scene, a hint of confusion appeared in everyone's eyes. They didn't know what Beihai Cheng and Baili Hongzhuang were planning to do.
"Hongzhuang, is there something you need after getting off the carriage?" Xia Zhiqing asked with a smile.
Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly and her gaze fell on Beihai Cheng beside her. Beihai Cheng immediately understood and looked at the crowd.
"Hongzhuang and I will temporarily bid you all farewell here."
Beihai Cheng's voice was warm and sunny, and his flawless face bloomed with a faint smile.
Upon hearing his words, everyone was momentarily stunned. "Aren't you going back to the academy?"
"Hongzhuang and I are planning to go to a place for some cultivation and will return to the academy in a few days. You all can go back first," Beihai Cheng explained.
Then everyone understood. Beihai Cheng and Baili Hongzhuang were already a married couple, and there were probably some things they needed to take care of. They wouldn't ask too many questions.
Lu Huaiyan and Fu Hongbo couldn't help but look at Huanchu You. It was common for students of the academy to leave the academy from time to time, so it was a normal thing.
Huanchu You's gaze fell on Baili Hongzhuang and Beihai Cheng. Clearly, these two had already made this decision for quite some time.
With Beihai Cheng and Baili Hongzhuang's abilities, he believed they must have already made thorough plans. Since that was the case, he naturally wouldn't stop them.
"Take care on your journey. Baili Hongzhuang is still injured. Beihai Cheng, take good care of her."
Beihai Cheng chuckled lightly. "Vice Principal, rest assured. My wife will be fine under my care."
