Chapter 197 Farewell
In the charming valley under the moonlight.

A man and a woman waited for the moonlight and starlight in the sky above the valley to gradually dim. Sleepiness finally came over them. They touched shoulders with their thin clothes between them, and in a semi-cuddled state, they fell into a deep sleep before the clouds and mist that had opened a hole above the valley closed and completely isolated them from the night outside.

……

Silent all night.

-

The next day.

At noon.

When Liu Xi woke up from a deep sleep, he found that he had been lying on the bed in the house without knowing when.

He glanced across his empty room with sleepy eyes, and then shook his still dizzy head vigorously to drive away the sleepiness.

After waking up, he got up from the bed, washed up in the house, and was about to leave the house when suddenly, a breeze from the valley blew in through the half-open window pane, bringing with it some of the woman's faint fragrance that remained on his chest, shoulders and even the back of his clothes, and suddenly penetrated into his mouth and nose with his breath.

After standing there in a daze for a while, he slowly took off his clothes, folded them meticulously, and put them into the ring without any intention of washing them. Then he changed into a new set of clothes and pushed the door open.

"Are you awake?"

Just as Liu Xi walked to the lawn outside the house and was about to look around to find the ethereal and graceful white figure who looked like a banished fairy, he heard a clear and crisp sound like a trickle of water coming from the back of the house.

Following the sound, he saw the Little Medical Fairy walking towards him with a vine in her bare hands. On the vine were several fresh silver carp that had just been fished out of the small pond behind them.

His eyes paused on the fresh silver carp, Liu Xi touched the tip of his nose and said with a smile:
"If this continues, I'm afraid that in a few days, all the fish you originally planned to raise in the pond for viewing will be gone..."

Hearing this, the Little Medical Fairy, who had already walked up to him, blinked her almond-shaped eyes and looked at him intently. There seemed to be something different in her eyes, and she said softly:

"While we are still here, let's eat while we can."

When Liu Xi heard this, his hand that was about to take the vine froze in the middle. The smile on his face was involuntarily mixed with a hint of bitterness. He must have heard something else from the little medical fairy's words.

"Is Junior Sister leaving now?"

His eyes met with Little Medical Fairy's, and after a moment of silence, he asked.

Although he had anticipated this day, when the moment of separation came, he couldn't help feeling a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Turning her head away, avoiding eye contact with Liu Xi, the Little Medical Fairy looked elsewhere, pursed her lips slightly, and said in a calm tone:

"I... plan to go to the Izumo Empire. That should be the most suitable place for me."

Putting the fish on the stove, Liu Xi didn't say anything to ask the Little Medical Fairy to stay.

Objectively speaking, the Izumo Empire, which has a large number of poison masters and a much more complete range of poisons and poisonous herbs than the Gama Empire, is indeed more suitable for Xiao Yixian at this stage.

Like a fish in water.

The rejection of the surrounding environment is certainly not as severe as that of the Gama Empire.

And stay with him?

This is not realistic either. He also has his own path to follow. In less than a month, he will be heading to Canaan College!
We will part anyway, it's just a matter of sooner or later!
"when are we leaving?"

Liu Xi said slowly.

"Today is..."

The Little Medical Fairy hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully.

This was the time she had originally planned to leave, and after Liu Xi came back, she had thought about staying a little longer, but after last night, she was worried that she would not be willing to leave if she stayed too long.

After hearing these words, Liu Xi sighed inwardly, "As expected."

He explained why he returned to the valley yesterday and felt that there was something unusual about the Little Medical Fairy that he couldn't explain.

It is estimated that if he had not come back yesterday, when he came to this valley again, it would be deserted. Of course, there might be a letter of farewell left in the hut, waiting for him.

Women... just like to do this kind of thing.

Liu Xi secretly complained in his heart.

……

afternoon.

On a mountain top outside the valley.

Liu Xi looked up at the giant blue eagle hovering in the sky, waved to the treasure girl on the eagle's back who had made him feel sad when they left, and said a few words of farewell in a loud voice.

On the eagle's back, she stared at the young man on the top of the mountain below in a trance. A thin layer of mist filled the little medical fairy's almond-shaped eyes. She waved her bare hands gently towards the people below to say goodbye. Suddenly, she bit her lips with her silver teeth and said to the people below:
"Brother, next time we meet, please call me by my name!"

Hearing this, Liu Xi was slightly startled, then smiled and said:

"Don't do it next time, Luo Mi, see you later, take care!"

Seeing this, the little medical fairy smiled.

However, in that smile, there was a deep reluctance that could not be concealed.

After waving for the last time, the Little Medical Fairy finally did not stop. She gently patted the eagle's back with her white hands, accompanied by a loud eagle cry from the giant blue eagle.

The figures of the man and the eagle gradually faded from Liu Xi's sight.

Standing quietly on the top of the mountain for a long time, Liu Xi looked at the empty air in front of the cliff, sighed, lowered his eyes, and said to himself:

"If the trajectory of your destiny had not changed drastically, the next time we met, you would have been the leader of the Poison Sect that was famous throughout the Izumo Empire, right?"

……

We stayed in the valley for another day.

However, after the Little Medical Fairy left, he was the only one left in the valley, which really made him feel lonely. Staying here, the feeling of emptiness in his heart was increasing unconsciously.

Knowing the reason, he left this isolated valley on the third day after Xiao Yixian left.

Perhaps, I don’t know how long it will take before I come back here again.

-

The sun is hanging in the sky.

At noon when the sun was at its brightest, Liu Xi arrived at Wutan City.

I had just returned to the Xiao family and had been sitting cross-legged in meditation under the shade of a tree in the courtyard for less than a quarter of an hour when someone knocked on the courtyard door from outside.

With a slight frown, Liu Xi opened the door.

Outside the courtyard, a doorman from the Xiao family bowed to him respectfully.

"Elder Liu Xi, two days ago someone came to your door and said he was looking for you. After seeing that you were not there, he stayed for a day and left this letter behind."

As he spoke, the servant handed over a letter with both hands.

"Looking for me? Did he tell me his identity?"

While taking the letter, Liu Xi asked thoughtfully.

"No, the man said he was just an insignificant errand boy who was simply delivering the letter."

The attendant shook his head.

"Okay, please."

Liu Xi nodded slightly, and seeing that the servant had nothing else to say, he waved him away.

After closing the gate, he directly peeled off the wax seal on the envelope and pulled out the letter with the contents written on it.

Looking at the handwriting on the letter that was familiar from deep in his memory, Liu Xi knew who wrote the letter to him at just one glance, even before he even looked at the name of the person who signed the letter.

The original body’s teacher, Yan Yong.
