Chapter 217: Don't Want to Delay
Gu Zhifei spent the whole night thinking about how to complete the next task and help Master Qingming and Hua Xixia recover their cultivation as soon as possible.
It was not until dawn that she fell asleep.
As soon as she fell asleep, she had a strange dream.
In the dream, Master Qingming stood under a big locust tree and waved at her: "Zhifei, come here."
Gu Zhifei followed his instructions and walked up to him: "Master, why are you coming here instead of taking a good rest?"
Master Qingming looked at the sky, ignoring Gu Zhifei's words, and just said:
“It’s almost dawn.
Zhifei, I have something to give you."
Gu Zhifei was puzzled: "Master, you should heal your wounds first, and we can talk about it later. I..."
Without waiting for her to finish her words, Master Qingming handed a square box to her and disappeared into the mist.
“Master!”
Gu Zhifei suddenly stood up, turned to look out the window, and it was already dawn.
It was just a dream, she thought.
When he reached out to wipe the sweat off his forehead, Gu Zhifei felt something heavy in his hand. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was indeed a black solid wooden box.
I don't know what's inside, it's very heavy.
Gu Zhifei was startled. He held the box in his arms, and rushed out barefoot without even having time to put on his coat.
In the headmaster's room, Hua Xixia was crying. Gu Zhifei stood at the door and saw Guang Shubai waving at her. As soon as she entered, Guang Shubai handed her a letter:
"The master has left."
"Don't be difficult." Gu Zhifei's voice turned 180 degrees, "Running away? No? He ran away?"
She glanced at Hua Xixia, and then used her eyes to ask Guang Shubai. Guang Shubai indicated that she didn't know that her master had no cultivation at all.
Only then did Gu Zhifei feel relieved.
She opened the letter and saw a few short words written inside: Gone, don't miss me.
"Weren't you guarding outside the room?"
Speaking of this, Guang Shubai was upset: "I just took a nap at dawn, and I didn't expect that Master disappeared in a short while. You said he was injured, where could he run to?"
Gu Zhifei released his spiritual sense, but there was no trace of any kind within a dozen miles.
Since he wanted to run away, he must have planned it long ago so that they wouldn't find him.
Although Master Qingming talks a lot, he is never vague when it comes to doing things.
"I'll go out and look for her again. You stay here to look after my sister." After saying this, Gu Zhifei went out immediately.
According to her thoughts, Master Qingming had probably deceived her consciousness. He had many tricks up his sleeve, so he might be able to do this.
No matter what, Gu Zhifei didn't believe that he would really abandon the three of them like this.
But after wandering around outside for a whole day, Gu Zhifei didn't find any news about Master Qingming.
He seemed to have really gone away and disappeared from the face of the earth.

It was not until late at night that Gu Zhifei returned to Lingshan. After looking at Hua Xixia, he returned to his room.
In fact, she probably understood why Master Qingming left.
Repairing meridians is more difficult than repairing other wounds and often takes decades or even hundreds of years to complete.
However, the cultivation levels of Gu Zhifei and the other two were not enough to complete this project.
Furthermore, Master Qingming said that his time was coming up, and even Hua Xixia didn't know how old he was. Even if he had reached the Nascent Soul stage before, his life span was only 500 years.
For a cultivator, five hundred years is not a long time.
The master was unwilling to waste the three of them's time on endlessly reconnecting their meridians.
He didn't want to delay these people.
