Chapter 421: Chapter 421: The Last Will

Liu Ruyan will appear here.

It seemed as though she saw through Tang Xuerou’s confusion.

Liu Ruyan carefully explained to her, "There’s an old adage in our hometown that goes, ’To capture the thieves, first capture their king.’ I think, instead of passively confronting those demonic dragons that have run amok in the city, it would be better to come straight to the source to find out the reason for this transformation..."

At this moment, Tang Xuerou subconsciously asked, "You also don’t believe that this was caused by Ye Xuan?"

Liu Ruyan let out a light chuckle.

"Silly girl, I have no other skills, but I am good at judging people. Although he harbors many secrets, at least his nature is good. He wouldn’t commit such acts."

If Ye Xuan had heard this.

He might have been quite moved in his heart.

After all, following the spread of the news,

The citizens of White Cloud City’s impression of Ye Xuan had shifted from that of a fledgling career transitioner

To a completely unforgivable villain.

People like Liu Ruyan, Ke Feng, and those who believed in him without any hesitation—like Tang Xuerou and He Yalan—were truly rare.

...

"Dad."

Tang Xuerou, with tears in her eyes, ran to Tang Tianxing’s side.

She had always watched her father’s figure grow taller.

In her memory, Tang Tianxing had always been an invincible presence.

But now, the bloodied Tang Tianxing bore no semblance to the dignified Fifth Rank White Mage from before.

He was merely a pitiful and tragic middle-aged man.

"Dad! Wake up! Please wake up!"

Tang Xuerou shook Tang Tianxing’s shoulders repeatedly.

But she couldn’t awaken his consciousness that had already sunk into darkness.

Liu Ruyan found the scene in front of her somewhat unbearable to witness.

So she walked over to the side of this tragic father and daughter, saying to Tang Xuerou, "With such injuries, even a healer wouldn’t be able to save him. Li Xingyu’s attack was aimed at his vital points..."

"Why! Why did she do this! My dad has always treated her with great respect, but now, she’s killed my dad! Sister Ruyan, does being the daughter of the city’s ruler mean she can do as she pleases, even taking a life?"

Liu Ruyan sighed, then said, "We’re still investigating this matter. If it’s indeed related to the current city ruler, we officials will certainly not sit idly by.

Let’s do this— I’ll perform Dancer’s City Captivating Dance to activate Tang Tianxing’s remaining life force, so you and your father can have a proper farewell ..."

While Dancer is a lifestyle profession,

It greatly benefits combat-oriented careers that have been battling for many years.

The dance can bring people a sense of joy,

And this emotion can accelerate the recovery of a professional’s spirit and Spiritual Power.

As for the act of activating life force,

Only high-level Dancers like Liu Ruyan are capable of it.

Liu Ruyan took out two red folding fans.

Accompanied by music that seemed to come from nowhere,

She gently twirled her graceful figure.

And in the midst of a daze, Tang Xuerou seemed to see petals falling like rain from the ceiling.

Standing amidst the rain was her majestic father.

"Dad."

Tang Xuerou, without hesitation, rushed forward to embrace Tang Tianxing.

And Tang Tianxing let out a long sigh.

"I’m sorry, Feifei, your dad won’t be able to accompany you anymore..."

Tang Xuerou didn’t speak, but she cried while shaking her head repeatedly.

Tang Tianxing seemed to be helpless as well.

Afterward, his tone gradually became more serious.

"Feifei, you can’t stay here forever, go and find Ye Xuan, he is the key to all of this."

Tang Xuerou looked up somewhat confusedly.

"Dad, what do you mean by that?"

Tang Tianxing explained, "Although I’m reluctant to admit it, Ye Xuan seems to truly be the key to unlocking the Nest of Life, but the function of the key is not limited to just opening doors..."

After leaving these profound words behind, he disappeared.

Tang Xuerou stood dazedly in place.

As if reminiscing the touch of her father.

Or perhaps pondering the meaning behind Tang Tianxing’s final words.

"So it is indeed like that..."

Liu Ruyan, who was at her side, clearly had heard Tang Tianxing’s last words as well.

Although Ye Xuan was not the main culprit behind this tragedy.

She had to admit that Ye Xuan indeed held an extremely important role in this matter.

"Come with me."

Liu Ruyan did not ponder further, grasping Tang Xuerou’s hand and heading towards the teleportation array of White Cloud City.

Now, every second of delay meant a greater risk for the citizens of White Cloud City facing danger.

...

Meanwhile, after Ye Xuan and Ke Feng had evaded several scouting parties of professional converts.

She finally brought Ye Xuan and He Yalan to the official exchange.

"Why’d you bring me here?"

After gulping down several glasses of water, Ke Feng explained, "With everyone in White Cloud City on edge, it would be inappropriate to take you anywhere else.

So, I brought you here directly. Don’t worry, no officials will come checking here, and they have to show some respect to me, the lady boss."

But just as her voice fell.

A series of rapid knocking at the door resounded.

Ye Xuan and He Yalan’s gaze converged on Ke Feng.

Ke Feng immediately showed an embarrassed expression.

Then she turned her head away, impatiently going to answer the door.

"Who is it! Coming to find me at a time like this."

"Ah... Liu... Sister Liu... why are you here..."

The one standing outside the exchange was none other than Tang Xuerou and Liu Ruyan, who had just left the academy.

To facilitate students’ transactions.

There was a teleportation array near the official exchange leading directly to the academy.

Liu Ruyan and her group had used this teleportation array to arrive here.

"What, can’t I come?"

Liu Ruyan glared at Ke Feng, and then looked curiously towards Ye Xuan and He Yalan behind her.

"Finding you without even searching, how effortless..."

At this point, Tang Xuerou was far from calm.

She rushed up to Ye Xuan’s side.

Grabbing his hand, she intended to leave.

"What are you doing?"

Ye Xuan quickly withdrew his hand from Tang Xuerou’s grasp.

Then instinctively stepped back a few paces.

Tang Xuerou’s current state was like someone who had lost their closest kin.

Having lived two lifetimes, Ye Xuan still possessed such discernment.

"Don’t ask, just follow me back to the academy."

Tang Xuerou did not wish to explain anything.

Right now, she only wanted to use Ye Xuan as a tool to close the Nest of Life, to fulfill her father’s last wish.

"Wait a moment."

Ke Feng quickly stopped Tang Xuerou.

"The outside is swarming with official professionals. Once Ye Xuan shows his face, they’ll kill him on sight, and on the way here, we also realized.

Ye Xuan strangely attracts those deformed evil dragons; in any case, it’s certain death for you guys if you go out now."

Tang Xuerou yelled out unwillingly: "So what! Isn’t he the cause of all this?"
