Chapter 286: Saying Goodbye

It was time to say goodbye to the Southern Region.

Ye Lin thought about this; there was a conference for new Disciples to be held tomorrow.

Ye Lin also needed to make an appearance. He could now be considered the face of the Profound Heaven Sect, and appearing to encourage the newly joined Disciples would have an immeasurable impact on them.

Soon, the next day arrived.

By this time, everyone who had joined the Profound Heaven Sect yesterday had already arrived at the Utility Disciple square. They were all very excited; most of them hadn't slept last night, thinking about what was to come.

They simply couldn't sleep from excitement, and upon learning about the conference today, they had arrived here early in the morning to wait.

Looking around, the crowd murmured, "I don't know who will appear, but I heard that the Sect Master will show up. I'm really looking forward to it."

"But the main event is still to come. Right after this, an Elder will be holding a lecture on Cultivation Techniques. Just thinking about Cultivating and learning Cultivation Techniques makes me excited. I also want to soar through the skies."

"To look down upon the world's past events—it would be even better if I could be like those renowned figures."

When the time came, Qi Liang appeared.

Qi Liang's appearance caused a stir. "This is the Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect, Sect Master Qi. He looks different from everyone else; his aura is truly unique."

After the commotion, the crowd quieted down as soon as Qi Liang spoke.

"It seems everyone knows who I am. Here, I would like to congratulate all of you on entering our Profound Heaven Sect. You will become a part of the Profound Heaven Sect."

"I know you are all very excited. Now that you are part of the Profound Heaven Sect, you can boldly go and realize your dreams."

Qi Liang continued to tell these newly joined Disciples about the Profound Heaven Sect.

Ordinarily, Qi Liang would not appear, but this time was different. The War between Immortals and Demons had just ended not long ago, and he needed to appear to encourage the newly joined Disciples.

Everyone listened quietly to Qi Liang's words.

"I know what you most want to see right now, and today, that wish of yours will be fulfilled."

Hearing this, the crowd's eyes were filled with disbelief. "Could it be that Ye Lin is going to appear?"

Soon, a figure appeared before everyone's eyes.

The crowd looked at this figure; they had already seen him many times in portraits.

"Ye Lin, it's Old Ancestor Ye Lin who has appeared!"

Surging cheers erupted continuously; some people couldn't even believe what they were seeing.

They hadn't expected Old Ancestor Ye Lin to actually appear. For many of them, their wish was just to see Old Ancestor Ye Lin once.

They hadn't expected it to be fulfilled so soon.

Ye Lin's appearance brought the conference to a climax.

Ye Lin looked at the crowd below and remembered the scene when he had first entered the Profound Heaven Sect. How nostalgic; in the blink of an eye, he was about to leave the Profound Heaven Sect.

This was also the last time Ye Lin would appear before everyone; afterwards, he would be leaving the Southern Region.

This was the reason why Ye Lin had appeared; it was something he had considered beforehand.

Ye Lin looked at the crowd and began his speech.

Naturally, there were many encouraging words, and the effect of these words was immense.

Especially for those who held Ye Lin in extreme high regard.

Nothing was more impactful than having one's idol, the person one admired, appear before their eyes and encourage them in person.

Ye Lin didn't say much, but those simple few words were more important than anything else.

Soon, Ye Lin said his goodbyes to them.

Qi Liang and the others would not tell most people about the news of Ye Lin's departure, only a small number of people would know.

Only when the time was right would Qi Liang consider revealing this information to the outside world.

One had to know that Ye Lin's current deterrent power was extremely strong.

At the very least, it could make those evil forces very wary.

Qi Liang watched Ye Lin leave, feeling only a sense of emotion. Qi Liang looked at these Disciples; this was the last time they would see Ye Lin.

Ye Lin's departure did not make those influences disappear; on the contrary, they became even more intense.

Soon, the conference ended.

Many people were still reminiscing about the scene with Ye Lin, which also gave them more confidence in their upcoming Cultivation.

Ouyang Yu was left behind there, and Qi Liang took Ouyang Yu away from the Utility Disciple quarters.

Ouyang Yu didn't know where Qi Liang was taking her, but since Qi Liang didn't speak, Ouyang Yu wouldn't ask.

At this moment, Qi Liang knew Ouyang Yu was confused. "Your strength has already surpassed the scope of a Utility Disciple; keeping you there serves no purpose."

"I know your purpose for coming to our Profound Heaven Sect. You want to become a student of Liu Qinghe, right?"

Ouyang Yu nodded. "That's right, I want to become a student of Liu Qinghe."

Qi Liang nodded. "You are very lucky; Liu Qinghe has decided to take you as her student. I am taking you to her right now."

Ouyang Yu was stunned upon hearing this news; for a moment, she didn't react.

But then she said with some disbelief, "That's wonderful, I can hardly believe it."

Qi Liang smiled. "Keep up the good work and strive to reach your master's current Realm as soon as possible. She has also seen your previous performance."

Ouyang Yu nodded heavily.

On Ye Lin's side, Ye Lin had already arrived at Su Yu's courtyard.

Now he was just waiting for Han Shi and his family to arrive.

Ye Lin had finished reminiscing with his other friends; the last ones left were Su Yu and the others.

They were also the friends Ye Lin had known the longest in the Southern Region, and his best friends.

Su Yu poured a glass of wine for Ye Lin, and Ye Lin picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

"Good wine, truly good wine. Your family's wine is still the best, Brother Su."

Su Yu smiled. "Remember to come back and have a drink when you have the chance in the future."

Ye Lin nodded. "Definitely."

Soon, Han Shi and his family arrived at Su Yu's place.

Han Shi looked at Ye Lin; he knew what was going to happen next.

Han Shi didn't show any strange expression; he was still smiling just like before.

"I'm not late, am I? You two have already started drinking."

Ye Lin shook his head. "No, no, you arrived at just the right time."

"Come, come, hurry up and have a drink together."

Ye Lin poured a glass of wine for Han Shi and the others.

"I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the three of us would have reached this point. I really miss the time when the three of us first met."

Han Shi and Su Yu nodded. "Yes, it is truly nostalgic."

Ye Lin originally had a lot to say, but when it came to this moment, he didn't know how to start.

Han Shi was the same.

Ye Lin finally spoke. "I am leaving soon. After I visit Cloud Sky City, I will be gone."

Han Shi and Su Yu nodded. "We know. Isn't there still some time? Let's have a good drink first and talk about it later."
