LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 308: Instructions! Farewell!
Chapter 308: Instructions! Farewell!
Gu He was now assigning tasks to Han Yue, who hadn't spoken yet, while Zi Yan's reaction seemed a bit more intense.
Upon hearing Zi Yan's words, Gu He gently patted her head and said, "Why are you so startled? It's not just Han Yue, but your task later will also require leaving the Jia Nan Academy."
"Oh! Zi Yan understands!"
Being patted by Gu He, Zi Yan pouted, weakly responding.
On Han Yue's side, after listening to the three tasks assigned by Gu He, her mood became quite complicated.
Each of these three tasks was extremely difficult for her.
Just breaking through to the Dou Emperor realm for the first task alone might take a long time.
As for the second task, participating in the Four Pavilion Assembly and reaching the final match, it was even more challenging.
In previous assemblies, there were many peers who were Eight-Star Dou Emperors or even Nine-Star Dou Emperors. Those who could make it to the finals were the cream of the crop at the same level. Making it to the finals meant reaching the top eight, which required at least the strength of a Five or Six-Star Dou Emperor.
Of course, it wasn't that Han Yue wasn't among the best of her peers, but rather, compared to those who participated in previous assemblies, Han Yue was much younger.
If she were to participate in the assembly after the next one, Han Yue might still have a chance. However, this time, there was less than two years left. It would be quite difficult for Han Yue to make it to the top eight.
As for the third task, cultivating the Three Thousand Thunder Movement to perfection, Han Yue didn't have much confidence either. The Wind Thunder Pavilion's martial art, the Three Thousand Thunder Movement, was extremely complex. Even with many insights imparted by Gu He, achieving perfection would be extremely difficult.
Thinking about these tasks, a hint of difficulty appeared on Han Yue's face.
"What's wrong? Do you think the tasks are too difficult?" Seeing Han Yue's expression, Gu He asked.
"Master... these three tasks, your disciple indeed... doesn't have much confidence in completing them." Han Yue hesitated before expressing her thoughts.
Hearing Han Yue's words, Gu He had already planned for this. He immediately said, "In that case, let's set the time limit for the Four Pavilion Assembly. Over the next two years, Master will come to your location three times to transmit energy. As for how much you can absorb each time, it depends on your own efforts."
Three transmissions!
Upon hearing this, Han Yue suddenly felt a great reduction in pressure. However, that didn't mean she was one hundred percent confident. If she didn't properly temper her body, the amount of energy she could accept each time would decrease.
"Master, your disciple will definitely work hard to complete the tasks. It's just that when I go to the Central State, Master, how will you find me?" Han Yue respectfully asked.
The Central State was vast, and without any special means of contact, finding someone was like finding a needle in a haystack. So it was normal for Han Yue to raise this doubt.
"Since Master has said so, I have naturally made preparations. Take this jade token."
Upon hearing Han Yue's question, Gu He calmly took out a void jade token from his storage ring.
"Is this a communication jade token?" Seeing the void jade token in Gu He's hand, Han Yue asked curiously.
"It's similar to a communication jade token. When you take this token, Master will be able to sense your location. And if one day you encounter an irresistible life-or-death situation, just crush the token, and Master will instantly come to your side. So remember, you must keep this token safe!" Gu He patiently explained.
"Just by crushing the token, Master can instantly come to my side. What kind of technique is this..."
Hearing Gu He's explanation, Han Yue's heart trembled greatly. Then, she carefully hung the void jade token around her neck.
"Zi Yan, you also take one!"
After giving Han Yue the void jade token, Gu He took out another token and handed it to the somewhat absent-minded Zi Yan.
"Oh!"
Understanding the importance of this token, Zi Yan also solemnly reached out to accept it.
"Zi Yan, Master has only one requirement for you. Go to the Central State, and before your junior sister participates in the Wind Thunder Pavilion's assembly, step into the Seventh Rank. After reaching the Seventh Rank, come back and find Master!" Gu He slowly spoke.
"Okay!"
After listening to her task, Zi Yan's mood became somewhat complicated, but she nodded heavily.
"Now that the tasks have been assigned, prepare yourselves. Today... we depart. I will have the academy elders ride flying magic beasts to take you to the nearest spatial wormhole!" Gu He said slowly.
"Master, your disciple is about to leave the Jia Nan Academy. Please take care!"
"Master, Zi Yan will miss you!"
Upon hearing Gu He's final words, both Han Yue and Zi Yan became somewhat teary-eyed, feeling very reluctant to part.
"Master, then we'll go prepare!"
Seeing Gu He silent and not speaking, Zi Yan and Han Yue walked past him towards their rooms.
"Wait!"
As the two were about to enter their rooms, Gu He suddenly turned and walked towards them, saying as he walked, "Zi Yan, Han Yue, there are still some things I want to give you."
Hearing Gu He's words, Zi Yan and Han Yue paused, then turned back, tears glistening in their eyes.
"Why cry? It's not like you're never coming back!"
Seeing the tears on their faces, Gu He's heart was also deeply touched, but at this moment, he had to put on an indifferent expression.
The next moment, he handed a storage ring to each of them, then turned back to walk towards the courtyard.
At this moment, a notification sounded in Gu He's mind.
"Ding, detected that the host has given Fifth Disciple Zi Yan an ordinary storage ring with too many items inside. Please select two items for return."
This time, upon hearing the notification from the system, Gu He did not immediately respond.
Instead, he stood still, facing away from Zi Yan and Han Yue, and said, "Master is going to see the Grand Elder. You two... prepare quickly!"
After saying that, Gu He's figure flashed and disappeared from Zi Yan and Han Yue's sight.
...
After a while, Gu He arrived at a study deep within the Jia Nan Academy.
"Elder Gu He, are you leaving the academy for a while?"
Upon hearing Gu He's intentions, Su Qian, dressed in black, was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, not only am I leaving for a while, but I've also assigned Zi Yan and Han Yue tasks to go to the Central State for training. Later, I will ask the Grand Elder to arrange flying magic beasts to take them to the nearest spatial wormhole!" Gu He nodded in confirmation.
"Elder Gu He, rest assured. I will take care of sending those two little girls to the Central State. I wonder how long it will take for you to return?" After hearing Gu He's words, Su Qian didn't ask for any reasons, only feeling reluctant and asking when Gu He would return.
"At most two years. If those two little girls complete their training tasks ahead of time, the time will naturally be shortened!" Gu He said indifferently.
