Chapter 31 – Double-Speed Time Altar
“Guanqi! Guanqi! What happened to you? Gu Ran said that you went to the cliff behind the mountain!”
“Where is he?!” Li Nanting yelled, looking around. “Don’t kill yourself! Just tell me if you have anything you’re unhappy about!”
Creak~
Li Guanqi opened his room door with an awkward grin and said shyly, “Uh... Master, nothing happened. I just went to the back of the mountain to throw away some trash.”
“Hey! Who are you calling trash?!”
Li Guanqi’s smile froze. He hadn’t expected Sword Spirit’s voice to suddenly ring in his mind!
Li Nanting came to his side in a flash and scanned him with his vital force to check his condition. When he found nothing wrong with him besides his aura being slightly weaker than before, he finally sighed in relief.
Li Nanting assumed his disciple’s aura had weakened because he had been too impatient with his cultivation, so he couldn’t help but remind him, “Don’t push yourself too hard. Your progress is already on par with the core disciples of powerful major factions. The path of cultivation is long—there’s no need to rush.”
Li Guanqi nodded with a grin. “I understand, Master.”
Relieved, Li Nanting chuckled. “If you have nothing to do during these two days, you can complete missions from the Mission Pavilion. You’ll get the chance to go down the mountain and explore the region. It’ll expand your horizons.”
Once Li Nanting left, Li Guanqi sighed in relief. If his cultivation level had dropped significantly, he had no idea how his master would’ve reacted—he might’ve lost his mind.
