Chapter 23.2

Very quickly, a week passed.

At long last, the day they could return home arrived.

Many students of the Yunqi Academy decided to stay in school, not intending to come back home at all. Once they were gone, since their houses were far away, they wouldn’t have time to head back.

However, Lin Xiao had to go back at any cost, because he was concerned about Lin Waner and wanted to know why she didn’t attend the school… could it be something happened?

After he packed up things in a simple way, he asked Ling Luo: “Are you going to return home today?”

Ling Luo shook his head: “Nope”. Today he had to go find some medicines which could nurture Xuan Ye’s soul.

Alright… Lin Xiao was sure that Ling Luo would have, so that he would have had a companion during the journey.

Never mind.

Lin Xiao walked out from the dormitory, coming across Ji Quan.

“Are you prepared to go home?” Ji Quan asked.

“Yep. You won’t?” Lin Xiao also questioned.

Ji Quan shook his head while smiling: “My clan lives too far away from here. And there is no need to go back.”

Too distant?! Lin Xiao thought that, although it could be said that there was a long distance from Yunqi Academy to either Refine Medicine Country or Nebula Nation, but being too far away was out of question.

Also, Ji Quan didn’t look to come from the weakest state… perhaps, was he from Xuan Huang Nation?

Possible.

Actually, he really wanted to beg Huangfu Shan to check Ji Quan’s cultivation. However, he then gave up on the idea.

First of all, he didn’t know Ji Quan for a long time, but he had a pretty good impression of him. Secondly, he really wished to become friends with him… and friends didn’t need to thoroughly understand the other person‘s background, right?

… He had to leave Yunqi Academy and travel home as fast as possible, so he finally stepped out and, even though he was quick, he could only rush home at dusk.

While Lin Xiao was panting heavily, Lin Yue was surprised to see him: “Xiao’er, how come you are back? Could it be you were wronged in the Yunqi Academy? Look at how much weight you lost…” Lin Yue felt extremely distressed.

It hasn’t been easy to raise his son, but now attending Yunqi Academy once, made him lose so much weight!

Lin Xiao waved his hand: “Father, I returned home because I wanted to ask if the Attendance Notice you have sent to Nuo Han City’s Lin Waner has been received or not.”

Lin Yue was dumbfounded for a while. Pondering about the matter, he finally recalled that time when Lin Xiao asked him to send a letter to a Lin family’s girl in Nuo Han City. He nodded his head: “Yes, I dispatched a servant over. What’s the problem, Lin Xiao? Did something happen?”

Lin Xiao began to feel worried: “Father, can you please send someone who can help me to investigate why Lin Waner didn’t go to school?”

Lin Yue would obviously accept whatever his son wanted to, so he dispatched a person right away.
