With one final movement, yet another demon down. The rest of the demons finally understood that they stand no chance against the two before them. And how have they failed to detect any spiritual power from the one in white is what they are unable to understand, but they understood that the only option is to flee, which they did.
After seeing that all the demons have cleared away and have ran with their tails hanging behind them. Li Meng finally sighed in relief and glanced at Xiao Nantian who seems extremely exhausted. He walked towards him, bending down to match his height, he placed a finger on the acupoint at his lower back, using his left hand to hold him steady, he started transferring a bit of life force to him in form of spiritual power.
After Xiao Nantian's breathing steadied a bit, he stopped Li Meng telling him to save his spiritual power for himself instead of wasting it on him.
"It's definitely not a waste, you know how abundant my spiritual power is, it won't just run out just because I transferred a little to you". Li Meng reminded him with a roll of his eyes.
Yes, Xiao Nantian knows that Li Meng's spiritual power is abundant. Everyone sees him as a liability of the Li's just because he doesn't practice Martial arts but plays flutes all day, not to talk of the fact that he's very terrible at it. But nobody but Xiao Nantian and the patriarch of the Li family knows that he's a spiritual power genius, the best Xiao Nantian has ever known.
He knows a lot of cultivators with high spiritual power but none of them can hold a candle to Li Meng. That's why he can't understand why the young Childe Li isn't interested in Martial arts and plays such awful music.
"Beside, I will still need you to protect me whenever we encounter danger and that's not something you can do if you remain in this state". His tone is willful giving no room for refusal.
"At least wait till we have gotten to a safe place, I'm afraid more demons might surround us if we keep lingering". Xiao Nantian said in resignation, he took the hair ribbon on his hand, after asking Li Meng to turn around, he helped him hold his hair back to it's original position.
He stood back up with the help of Li Meng and they began their journey.
"I haven't thought to ask but where's our first stop". Li Meng questioned after they have walked for quite a while.
"The city of LanZhou". Xiao Nantian replied.
"Why are we going there?". Li Meng asked as he walked beside Xiao Nantian who's walking not too fast cause of his previous injuries.
"My Grandmaster said he has a friend there who will help us enroll into LanZhou Academy Of Martial Arts and Sorcery, where we can train for a while". Xiao Nantian disclosed, before a thought struck him.
His Grandmaster has mentioned Li Meng too, as if he knew he's coming with me. This must have been the plan between him and Grandfather Li.
They kept silent after that, pondering what the future might possibly hold for them.
After walking for a while, Xiao Nantian has recovered a little, so in order to get there faster he suggested they ride their swords but the problem is that Li Meng doesn't have a sword.
Before Xiao Nantian could address this issue, Li Meng brought out his flute, muttered some spells and immediately took off.
"I will race you there". He shouted, his voice being carried by the wind.
Xiao Nantian was left with no other choice than to follow riding his own sword.
'Nothing is impossible for a spiritual power genius'. He thought before ascending into the air.
After a long while they descended in the city of LanZhou, both of them feeling extremely dizzy at the long distance flying.
Xiao Nantian walked to the front leading the way following his Grandmaster's description. They soon found themselves in a courtyard, a man with white flawless hair, the same color with that of Xiao Nantian's Grandmaster Wei ZhongChen,materialized in a sitting position in front of them as if he has been expecting them.
Yu ZhangMing the owner of the house stared at them unblinking thinking that their aura is indeed special and distinguished, he's certain they will achieve big things in the nearest future and he's willing to be a witness to their growth.
They both bowed in greeting and after the man confirmed their identity, he ushered them both inside, urging them to take a rest and wash up first before they talk about their admission into the Academy.
After they have both rested properly, a disciple of Yu ZhangMing came and called them both for dinner.
It was a simple dinner consisting of Yu ZhangMing's two disciples, one of whom is a student at the Academy, he's the one tasked to show them around the school when they get there.
It's already past the time for the Academy's entrance examination so they could only get in through personal recommendations. Apparently Yu ZhangMing already took care of that for them, tomorrow they will enter the Academy as official disciples but their performances in the Academy could make them Internal disciples if any of the Academy's masters took an interest in them.
After the dinner they thanked Yu ZhangMing and asked Yu SiFeng, that's Yu ZhangMing's senior disple to take them to the school to scout it out, which he agreed to readily.
When they got to the entrance of the Academy, they had to walk in, since it's forbidden to fly through the Academy's entrance.
Walking into the Premier Cultivation Land of Donghai prefecture, LanZhou Academy of Martial arts and Sorcery. The atmosphere was indeed different from that of the Academy back home. This is the Academy for geniuses, even families from the Imperial City send their children to LanZhou to learn Martial Arts and Sorcery, so the school is definitely not something ordinary, it's only normal that the atmosphere is more pleasant but tense.
