Chapter 110 Ringing the Heavenly Bell
Ah Chen's figure disappeared along with the teleportation talisman. Matt looked at his retreating figure and said, "Young Madam, why didn't you keep him by your side?"
"When the gray fog invades, the border areas are the first to be affected. The Holy Witch Clan's territory is not far from the Qiyan Mountains, and the danger here is far greater than in the city."
Moreover, Shifang Academy has a profound foundation, and the instructors will do their best to protect the students in the academy. It would be safer for Achen to stay in the academy.
If our clan's territory truly comes to the point of being lost, I will send Xi'er to the Ten Directions Academy and have A-Chen take her away to escape.
Although I don't know where he should escape to, he has the Kunpeng cub by his side, so perhaps there is a glimmer of hope for him.
"It's all because of me that you've been dragged into this mess, and I feel truly guilty," said Yu Shan.
"Young Madam, what are you saying? You almost lost your life for our Green Algae Star. For that alone, it is only right for us Green Algae Star people to risk our lives for you."
"Besides, you are the commander's beloved. He would give his life for you. As his subordinates, it is only right that we do anything for you," Mina said from the side.
"Two days ago, Jin Ding secretly contacted me and revealed his identity. It turns out that he is the leader of the Golden Armor Guard of Yunxiao Palace and a subordinate of the Palace Master, Venerable Yusheng."
He was originally ordered by the Palace Master to protect me, but recently Venerable Yusheng suddenly sent him a message saying that the gray fog has begun to erode the boundary of the Misty Heaven Realm, and this realm is facing an unprecedented catastrophe.
The experts at the Tongtian Realm in this world have gathered to discuss countermeasures, but everyone has said that they cannot find a way to deal with the gray fog.
The powerful beings have decided to abandon this realm. For them, traversing the starry sky and finding another realm full of spiritual energy is not difficult.
Venerable Yusheng said that he had built a spirit boat that could traverse the starry sky and withstand the attacks of star beasts.
He promised to give me three seats so I could take my two children with me when I left.
However, what I want to take away are all the members of the Holy Witch Clan, and even experts at the Heavenly Realm are powerless to stop them.
So I had no choice but to stay and live or die with my people.
"Unfortunately, the teleportation array that brought us to the Misty Heaven Realm is one-way and cannot send you back to the Flowing Light Star System," Yu Shan said solemnly.
Venerable Yusheng had a strong attachment to the former Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Clan, Feather Fan. At this time, he extended an olive branch, agreeing to let her take her two children with her, which was the biggest concession he could make.
However, Yu Shan resolutely refused his offer. Her partner had risked his life to accompany her all the way back to her hometown, and she could not abandon him for her own sake and for the sake of her children.
Moreover, her people are here, even if they are not the same people she used to know. As the former Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Clan, she has a responsibility to lead them to safety.
The only thing she couldn't let go of was her two children, but she believed they would survive, since things hadn't reached the worst point yet.

Achen returned to his bedroom in the academy. As soon as he appeared, he saw the wide-open door and an angry Nie Xiaoxiao.
"How...why did you kick open my door?" Ah Chen said angrily.
"How dare you say that? Who lied to me, saying he needed to get a good night's sleep and that I shouldn't disturb him?"
But then he turned around and secretly drew a teleportation talisman and ran away?
"You'd better tell me the truth, which little vixen did you secretly meet up with?" Nie Xiaoxiao said, hands on her hips.
Ah Chen: Please! He's only nine years old, he's not old enough to secretly meet girls, is he?
However, he knew that Nie Xiaoxiao was unreasonable, so he took out a recording stone and showed her the video he had recorded of Xi'er swinging on the swing.
"Wow! What an adorable doll! Where does she live? Can I borrow her for a few days?" Nie Xiaoxiao was quickly charmed by Xi'er and stared intently at her.
"Hey! Stop drooling, okay? She's my sister, my own flesh and blood! Anyone who dares to treat her like a toy will definitely die a horrible death!" Ah Chen glared at her and said.
"Hehe! Junior Brother Zuo, Ah Chen, Little Chenchen? I misspoke. I didn't mean to treat her like a toy, I just wanted to hug her and kiss her."
Such a cute little sister, I wish I had one too! It's a pity my father was useless. He married so many concubines, but only my mother, his legal wife, gave birth to me, his only daughter.
Ah Chen, next time you go home to see your sister, could you take me with you? I promise I'll be very good and obedient, and I definitely won't cause you any trouble.
"I really, really want to hug our little sister, just for a little while, okay?" Nie Xiaoxiao's expression was full of flattery.
Ah Chen had never seen her show such an expression to anyone before; it seems she really likes Xi'er.
Ah Chen was naturally proud that his younger sister was liked by someone. Luckily, Nie Xiaoxiao was a little girl. If it had been a brat, he would have been tempted to punch him.
“Alright, if you really like my sister, I can take you with me next time I go home, but you have to promise that you won’t mention a single word about my family to any outsiders!” Ah Chen said.
The Holy Witch Clan's territory wasn't exactly a secret; many people in Five Elements City knew about it.
Ah Chen simply didn't want to reveal his identity as a descendant of the Holy Witch Clan, but since he lived in this world, he couldn't stay without making friends forever.
Nie Xiaoxiao was one of the few friends he made at the Ten Directions Academy, and they had even gone through life and death together during their training in the Spirit Realm.
Since she insisted on moving into his yard, he had gotten a general understanding of her personality through such a long period of observation.
Although she is a bit domineering and arrogant, she is extremely protective of those she approves of. If she hears those who are jealous of her talking badly about her behind her back, she will poison them and punish them severely.
With Ah Chen's approval, Nie Xiaoxiao's mood instantly brightened, and she completely forgot about how he had lied to her.
The two discussed when they would visit their relatives next time. Nie Xiaoxiao kept asking him what gift she should give to Xi'er, as if she were going to visit her own sister.
Suddenly, the melodious sound of bells rang out from outside.
"The Haotian Bell? This is the bell that urgently summons all instructors and students to a meeting in the main square. Has something terrible happened?" Nie Xiaoxiao asked, her expression changing drastically.
"We can't guess anyway, let's hurry up and go check it out." Ah Chen said, casually drawing a short-range teleportation talisman, and then he and Nie Xiaoxiao disappeared into the room together.
Behind them, Xiao Shi's figure came into view, his brows furrowed tightly.
During this time, he stayed by Achen's side, first going to the Spirit Realm Trial, and then going with him to see the little baby Xi'er, having a great time.
He had no idea what major event had occurred at the academy.
But he knew that the last time the academy rang the Haotian Bell, a great beast tide had occurred, with a million demon beasts besieging Five Elements City.
What's the reason this time?
