Chapter 708: Please Forgive Me
Ye Fei sat cross-legged on the bed, cultivating.
She used the transformative spiritual energy within the Heart of the Deep Sea and finally advanced to the first-level Spirit Master!
With a soft breath, Ye Fei slowly opened her eyes. Her clear eyes held no trace of impurity, remaining as clear as ever.
There was a knock on the door, and Ye Fei got up to open it, only to find Yu Muhan standing outside.
"Mu Han?"
Seeing the girl's pale face and dim eyes, Ye Fei immediately put her hands on her shoulders and asked with concern, "I heard from Fusang that your mother was seriously ill. How is she now?"
Yu Muhan stared blankly into Ye Fei's gaze, a pang of bitterness rising in her heart.
Her hands were clenched into fists inside her sleeves, but after a long while, her clenched fingers finally loosened.
Yu Muhan forced a smile: "Xiao Fei, my mother is alright."
Ye Fei sensed that something was wrong with her mood, and her expression darkened slightly: "Are you really okay? You're not lying to me?"
Yu Muhan sniffed: "Hmm...it's nothing, you don't need to worry."
"Hmm, it's good that everything's alright." Ye Fei didn't think she was the kind of person who would joke around with her family, so she stopped doubting her.
A few seconds later, Ye Fei heard her slowly utter a sentence: "Actually... I'm going to drop out of school."
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment: "Drop out of school? Why would you drop out of school?"
“My mother has just recovered from a serious illness and needs someone to take care of her, and also…”
Yu Muhan steeled his heart and said, "Moreover, I agree to join the Holy Church, and I will soon become a member of the Holy Church."
The atmosphere fell silent.
Yu Muhan turned her face away, not daring to look directly into Ye Fei's eyes.
She was afraid to see anger, indifference, and disappointment in her eyes...
Ye Fei was silent for a moment, then smiled: "So that's how it is."
"I'm sorry..." Yu Muhan's eyes reddened, "I clearly promised you that I wouldn't leave the team so easily..."
"But I'm so sorry..."
Ye Fei shook her head: "Mu Han, you have nothing to apologize for."
"All good things must come to an end. I am happy that you have found a more suitable place for your cultivation."
Yu Muhan suddenly raised his head and stared at her blankly: "You...you don't blame me?"
Ye Fei said, "To be honest, I really don't want you to join the Holy Church. But the healing-type spiritual master techniques that the Holy Church possesses are something that Lingfeng Academy and Ye Fei's team can't give you. I can't be so selfish as to cut off your path to success."
"Xiao Fei..."
"I can't interfere with your decision, the only thing I can do is support you."
Ye Fei took out the bottle of Purple Poison, which was originally intended for Li Yuan, from her storage ring and carefully placed it in Yu Muhan's hand: "This is a poison I concocted. It is extremely potent and has the power to massacre a city. If you encounter unavoidable danger after you go to the Holy Sect, use it."
"Wherever you are, promise me you will keep your life—only then can I be at ease."
The bottle in her hand was cool, yet it gave Yu Muhan an extremely hot feeling—a heat that felt like it was burning her whole body away.
Even though she was extremely reluctant to part with her, Xiao Fei still respected and supported her, and even gave her the poison she had concocted as a means of self-protection...
This friendship...this friendship...
Yu Muhan finally couldn't hold back anymore. She hugged Ye Fei tightly and cried out, "Xiao Fei, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me... I'm so sorry..."
