Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 239: Letter from the Teacher
Zhang Yu thought he would have a chance to practice forging after Xuan Yin gave birth to their son. However, who would have thought he would become busier even keeping watch all night when little Zhang Chao cried and had trouble sleeping.
"Yu Gege, there seems to be a letter from you." At that moment Xuan Yin was opening up the letters coming from his family. Not only for him but it turned out that there was also someone sending for Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu quickly approached. "From who?" tanyakanya.
Xuan Yin flicked his shoulders. "Open it if you want to know. I'm curious too."
Not wasting more time Zhang Yu opened it. He was quite surprised when he found the emblem of the Imperial Academy there.
"It's from the teacher,"
Xuan Yin momentarily fell silent. He asked, "What did the teacher write?"
Zhang Yu placed the scroll on the table. "The teacher wants me back at the academy."
"If so, go. The teacher may have something important to say."
Despite having gotten permission from his wife but Zhang Yu still seemed unable to leave him to take care of little Zhang Chao alone.
"Just go. No need to worry about us here. There was still a mother, Yixue even a father was eager to accompany his granddaughter."
After thinking for a very long time Zhang Yu finally left the Xiao Clan the next morning. Don't forget he said goodbye to everyone, especially his little son.
"Chao'er, I'm leaving for a minute. Be a smart kid and don't trouble your mom, okay?"
Babas...
Zhang Chao who was in his mother's arms immediately pulled Zhang Yu's index finger. He understood what his father wanted and promised to do it.
Zhang Yu smiled as he pinched his son's nose. "Take your mommy's a hotshot!"
As soon as Zhang Yu walked out of the room, several people including Song Yixue were there to escort him away.
"Yu Gege, can't I really come with you?"
"Stay here and help Chao'er. She loved it when her aunt came up with the toys. So the next time you come do not go empty-handed" Zhang Yu said.
Song Yixue immediately piqued in annoyance and walked towards Xuan Yin who was carrying Zhang Chao. "yes too. There's a cute niece like this how could I be willing to go. I'll stay here. Yu Gege just go alone," he exclaimed.
Zhang Yu did not say anything. He left after kissing his son and wife's forehead using the teleportation portal that was at the north gate.
It didn't take long to arrive at Dou Xi City. Zhang Yu passed the hill and reached Tiankong Mountain, where the battle of heaven took place a few years ago. But the place was now quite quiet as almost no one had come.
"Young man, are you lost?"
Zhang Yu stopped his steps when he passed by an old man.
"No" he said briefly.
The old man nodded his head. "Since this is not the main road to get out of Dou Xi City, it feels quite strange to see someone walking down this road. I'm sorry, you can continue your journey" said the old man.
Zhang Yu just muttered. Long Shen who was on the shoulder tried to look at the old man's strength but found nothing but an empty dark room.
"Zhang Yu, that old man is no ordinary person."
Long Shen's sentence made Zhang Yu again stop his steps and turn around to look for the whereabouts of the old man. But in a very short time the man had already disappeared from there.
"He's gone missing. He really isn't an ordinary man!" long Shen said.
However Zhang Yu did not comment further on this matter. He prefers to continue his steps towards the frozen forest which is the main purpose why he chose a detour.
When he first entered the frozen forest region Zhang Yu had already sensed the existence of spiritual beasts everywhere. However it might be due to the aura of his strength that not a single spiritual beast dared to come close to him.
Zhang Yu walked deeper inside. Some spiritual beasts were even frightened when crossing with him. Run the ridge like prey to meet predators.
"When will I keep going? Can't you detect her presence?" zhang Yu asked Long Shen.
But Long Shen was silent because he could not give an answer.
Zhang Yu decided to go deeper. But instead of finding what he was looking for, he was instead visited by a pack of wolves that barked towards him. They were as if unafraid of the aura emanating from Zhang Yu's body and continued to bark.
They are fourth level wolves. It really wasn't a match for Zhang Yu. When Zhang Yu thought of ignoring them, suddenly a brown shadow moved from the inner side of the forest and attacked the wolf horde.
Zhang Yu was still paying attention to this newly arrived figure. The smile on his face looked real when it really confirmed if it was him.
"Sun!"
Sun with his current form is completely different. He was tall, large and had an extremely powerful aura. It seemed like he was already the king of spiritual beasts in the frozen forest region.
But Sun is still Sun. As soon as he saw Zhang Yu he instantly dispelled his savage nature and became small then climbed onto the shoulders of the master.
Ak's!
Long Shen clucked in admiration when he saw Sun's improvement. He said, "Two years of not seeing each other turned out he had improved so much. Now he was already a sixth level spiritual beast which was equivalent to the holy level."
"Are we going straight to the Xuan Empire?" ask Long Shen afterwards.
Their goal in coming to the frozen forest was none other than to look for Sun. Because since recovering from the wounds of space turbulence, Sun looks like an animal that lost the will to live. She is also lonely which makes the very mother make the decision to release her in the frozen forest.
After almost two years he had already become the ruler of the frozen forest. This also proves that the decision his mother made at that time was really right.
"Look at him, when before it was still so fierce. Now it sticks and looks very tame. It's really not authoritative" Long Shen said.
After they exited the frozen forest region, the first destination was the Dou Ha City then continued to the Dou Yan City.
While boarding the ship, Zhang Yu met Guang Zhou who was also aboard the same ship. It was unexpected that it turned out that Guang Zhou easily recognized him.
"I didn't think we could see each other again after all this time" he said.
Zhang Yu looked at Guang Zhou who had so much luggage. It was like he was going to travel far.
"Are you also going back to the Academy?"
Guang Zhou was silent for a moment before nodding his head. "really. I left the academy long enough. It's time to go back."
"What about you? Why are you back?"
"I got a letter from the head of the academy,"
Guang Zhou narrowed his eyes for a moment before nodding his head. "I almost forgot that you are the head disciple of the academy. It must be an important matter until it sends you a letter."
Zhang Yu turned his shoulders. Honestly, he doesn't know how important this is. The teacher didn't even give him a hint as to why he suddenly asked for her back.
After traveling four days and three nights they finally reached Heishan City. Zhang Yu descended with Guang Zhou, they then together traveled towards Xue He City.
In the middle of the journey, they suddenly met a group of people who were running in a great hurry.
At first thought Ganyan was a person who had an important business. But after being noticed they were a group of thieves trying to escape from the pursuit of imperial academy disciples.
"Zhang Yu, let me take care of them," said Guang Zhou holding back Zhang Yu who wanted to intervene.
Guang Zhou quickly pulled out his sword. He created five fireballs with his sword, then attacked the group of thieves until they fell.
The academy students caught them.
"Thank you for helping us catch this group of thieves" a female student told Guang Zhou.
Guang Zhou nodded his head with a smile which made the female disciple dazzled with her charismatic face.
"Eh, are you also a student of the academy?" the female disciple asked when she noticed the robe Guang Zhou was wearing.
"I'm also a student of the academy" replied Guang Zhou.
The female disciple also deserved to stick out her hand while mentioning her name. "My name is Zhang Ying, I'm a student in the newest class."
When he heard his name, Guang Zhou turned his head in search of Zhang Yu's whereabouts. Both Zhang clans, are they from the same clan?
But Guang Zhou no longer saw Zhang Yu's whereabouts.
"Where is he? Isn't it still there?" his inner.
"What are you looking for?" ask Zhang Ying.
"none. I'm going back to the academy" he said and left.
