Chapter 169 - Decisive Departure

“Ah?” Yun Che’s abrupt words startled Lan Xueruo for a good while Then, she i, then of course you can After all, noTournaood foundation for your participation three years later It’s just that, the Imperial Palace is only allowed to send three people to participate These three people will have to be selected froht to make the decisions either So, if Junior brother Yun really wishes to participate in this upco Blue Wind Tournament, within half a year, you have to enter the top three placings of the Inner Palace Heavenly Profound Ranking”

Currently, Yun Che had taken over Murong Yi’s position in the Heavenly Profound Ranking, and was ranked seventy-third To step into the top three places from the seventy-third place in half a year, no one would believe it would actually happen if they were to hear of it… nor would they believe that the seventh place, Xuelang, or the thirty-sixth place, Feng Baiyi, of the Heavenly Profound Ranking had already died at Yun Che’s hands

In other words, with the strength Yun Che currently possessed, he was at least at the seventh placing or above

“I know” Yun Che nodded His gentle yet firaze looked towards Lan Xueruo “I will strive to obtain the qualifications to participate in the Ranking Tourna there for the sake of experience; rather, I will be participating in it seriously… So, Senior sister, after this, I will be leaving for a period of tiht in Lan Xueruo’s eyes stirred, and she hurriedly grabbed onto Yun Che’s hand “Where are you going? Why do you have to leave?”

Yun Che took Lan Xueruo’s sently, “Senior sister, do you reive you a shoulder that you can lean on and rely on, and that I would take on that uniinable heavy burden in your stead… It’s just that, even if I have the resolution to do so, with the way I am now, I am still too weak; I basically do not possess that sort of shoulder The things you’re bearing, I don’t even have the strength to get involved in them If I were to step into these matters with the way I am now, not only will I not be able to take them on for you, I will also becoht even become your weakness”

“Back when I received invitations from the Crown Prince and the Third Prince at the same time, Instructor Qin had advised me to take the initiative to distancethat will be best for you, and it will be a sort of protection forI will never ever do As to how to deal with the invitations from the Crown Prince and Third Prince, I have pondered about it these few days In the end, after taking into consideration the things I currently possess, no ant I am, I cannot deny that the current et involved in the turbulence within the Imperial Palace, and neither am I able to carry even a portion of your burden At least, if the Crown Prince and Third Prince were to wish forthat can be easily fulfilled for either of the their invitations, I am unable to choose Since I can neither decide on either, nor can I choose both or decline both at the sa I can do, is to choose neither, and silently leave”

This was the choice Yun Cheon it for the last few days

As the Crown Prince and Prince of an Empire, they have many subordinates, and the nuular person could i Cloud City, he had been spending his tieneration, so he was still able to excel to a certain degree However, the battle within the Imperial Palace sieneration circle Just by the nu the Crown Prince and Third Prince’s subordinates, experts in the Earth Profound Realm number not less than a hundred, and experts at the Sky Profound Realht even be numerous Sky Profound Realm practitioners ere close to the E under theed into this circle With such weak profound strength within that circle, he would not even be able to influence the entire situation in the slightest The only thing he had was influence over the younger generation If he were to step into the turbulent situation within the I Lan Xueruo’s worries and concerns, ave of changes could he bring about?

And regarding all these, as an Imperial Princess, Lan Xueruo was even clearer on these issues than Yun Che

Her lips hadherself to say anything In the last few days, she had been worried that Yun Che would be dragged into her affairs, and hi, was definitely the safest option available to him However, she simply could not bear to have Yun Che leave, because she could no longer iine a day without him She did not knohen it started, but Yun Che had already beco pillar in her heart, as well as her sustenance If he were to leave now, she would be at a loss of what to do

Finally, she chose to nod and softly said “Leaving is good as well… No, it’s for the best If you were just a regular Inner Palace disciple, they would still try to win you over, but it wouldn’t be that urgent and fierce However, your current influence over the I Your choice will definitely sway the inclinations of the younger practitioners to a very large degree So, no e you deep within At the same tiht even be assassinated”

“These few days, I had wanted to advise you to temporarily leave the Imperial City as well… Yet, I couldn’t bear to part with you In this Imperial City, my heart has never been able to calm down If you were to leave htly held onto Yun Che’s hand

Yun Che shook his head, and said, “Senior sister, you don’t have to worry I will only be leaving te ti the invitations of the Crown Prince and Third Prince is merely one of the two reasons why I wish to leave the Imperial City The other reason is that I wish to head out to train The Blue Wind Profound Palace is indeed a place where countless of practitioners wish to train in, but this place is too comfortable There is pressure, but it isn’t forceful You will receive injuries, but they won’t be life-threatening I require a place that can push me even further, so as to provide you a shoulder that you can lean on as soon as possible Half a year… Senior sister, give me half a year’s tier than before”

Half a year’s ti duration As to why Yun Che would shorten the time imposed on himself to such an extent, was firstly because the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament would take place in half a year However, the e change would occur in the Imperial Palace when he wasn’t by Lan Xueruo’s side if the duration was too long

“Then… Where will you be going to for the next half a year? Have you decided?” Lan Xueruo asked worriedly

“Not yet But I believe that I will be able to find a place i the Imperial City” Yun Che said with a relaxed expression

With great effort, Lan Xueruo suppressed the unwillingness that was surging in her heart, and said gently, “Half a year isn’t that long either Since you have already decided, I… I will stay in the Imperial City, and calive yourself too much pressure, and even er… The reason why I a in the Imperial Palace, is because I simply cannot leave my father behind Yesterday, I personally visited the Black Moon Merchant Guild… But, even the Black Moon Merchant Guild has never co Soul Flower before If this is ive up o… Both the struggle within the Imperial Palace, as well as er be important I only wish to have you in h That’s why, you ht?”

Yun Che’s heart shook violently froed Lan Xueruo tight… These words alone, were enough for Yun Che to never turn his back on her for his entire life

However, to Lan Xueruo, and to Yun Che, their greatest pressure was never the struggle within the I Heaven Clan!

“Junior brother Yun, when are you planning to leave?”

“ Now”
