Chapter 820 Farewell
Chapter 820 Farewell
On Moonlight Peak, Lin Zixuan read the information on the jade slip that was delivered by Han Lanfen before destroying it. She closed her eyes for a moment, and her temperament had gone under transformation when she reopened her eyes. Her whole body exuded an incomparably cold aura that could easily freeze anyone who looked at her.
"Are you leaving?" At this moment, an aged voice resounded, and Principal Tian's figure gradually appeared in the distance.
Lin Zixuan replied expressionlessly. "Thank you for everything, Senior."
Principal Tian looked at Lin Zixuan for a long time. He still remembered the time he broke his principle in order to protect her back then. In a blink of an eye, several years had already passed by.
A while later, he said. "You have fully recovered and even become stronger than before. However, I must remind you again that the Azure Palace is not something you can handle with your current strength. I hope you can be calm and do things wisely. Do not repeat the same mistake again."
"I'll remember it." Lin Zixuan replied calmly.
"This may be our last meeting. I wish you good luck." Principal Tian said with a kind smile. Perhaps he had been living for too long, and partings had already become small matters to him. There was no sadness in his eyes.
Lin Zixuan went silent for a while. She wasn't good at expressing her emotion, but one could see the way she looked at Principal Tian was similar to a daughter looking at her father.
"Go. Do what you have to do. I'll let someone take good care of this place so you can have a home to return to." Principal Tian waved his hand gently.
Lin Zixuan took a deep breath and said with a firm expression. "Take care."
"Mhm." Principal Tian responded with a low hum and watched Lin Zixuan disappear from the place.
? Principal Tian stood in the place for a long while and suddenly said. "Why don't you come out? Are you still feeling guilty?"
As his voice fell, Lin Canghai's figure slowly descended from the sky and landed beside Principal Tian. His face was full of sadness as he looked at the empty hut before him.
Seeing this, Principal Tian let out a sigh and said. "Living to this age, I cannot say that I have realized all the truths in this world, but one thing that I am certain of is that life is short. Sometimes, you only have one chance in your life. If you don't grasp it firmly, it will never pass by again." He turned to look at Lin Canghai and asked. "So, what is your choice?"
Lin Canghai trembled slightly. The hazy in his eyes gradually became clearer as if he had finally realized something. He nodded heavily. "You're right, Senior."
Principal Tian smiled faintly and said. "Go. With your speed, you should be able to catch up with her."
Lin Canghai took a deep breath, and his figure vanished from the spot.
Watching Lin Canghai leaving, Principal Tian revealed a nostalgic smile. He seemed to think of past events where he let the important opportunity go because of his indecisiveness.
"Taixu." Principal Tian suddenly called out, and Lin Taixu appeared on the scene the next moment.
"Principal!" Lin Taixu greeted Principal Tian respectfully.
"Seal up this place. No one allows entering." Principal Tian said calmly.
"Yes, Principal." Lin Taixu responded readily.
"Your nature is good, but your mind is not flexible enough. You should learn how to adapt to the situation, and I believe you will become a good leader in the future." Principal Tian turned around and said to Lin Taixu. "Remember, there's no permanent good and absolute evil in this world. Put your stubborn righteousness away and try to look into everything through your heart sometimes."
Lin Taixu lowered his head in shame. He knew his recent performance was horrible, and he had reflected well during this period. The stupid righteousness he held for decades was nothing but a blind ego he created.
Principal Tian stepped forward and patted Lin Taixu's shoulder. "I'll leave the students to you."
"Principal, you…" Lin Taixu's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. A bad premonition emerged in his heart as he seemed to know what Principal Tian would do next.
Principal Tian didn't say anything and stepped forward, disappearing from the spot.
Lin Taixu came back to his sense and bowed deeply. "I'll live up to your expectation."

"Why are you here?" At the edge of the Northern Continent, Lin Zixuan looked at Lin Canghai coldly.
Lin Canghai stared at his beloved daughter for a while and let out a sigh. "I know I'm not a good father, and my decision back then hurt you deeply. I have no excuse… Since you're leaving, I am here to send you off... Also, take this with you."
As he spoke, Lin Canghai threw a sword-shaped deep blue pendant to Lin Zixuan. The latter subconsciously grabbed it and glanced at it. Her expression changed slightly when she saw the object in her hand. It was the Lin clan's heirloom, Mystical Frozen Sword.
Seeing Lin Zixuan's questioning expression, Lin Canghai said with a rare smile. "You're my daughter and the true successor of our Lin clan. This thing belongs to you in the first place. Take it."
Lin Zixuan took a deep look at Lin Canghai and put the pendant away. "I'm leaving."
Afterward, she turned around and prepared to leave. Suddenly, she heard Lin Canghai say. "I'm sorry. I hope you can live well."
Lin Zixuan's body trembled slightly. A faint ripple appeared on her tranquil heart. Perhaps it was because she had been waiting for this word from him for a long time.
A moment later, Lin Zixuan took a deep breath and vanished from the place, leaving Lin Canghai staring blankly at the place. Was he regretting his decision back then? The answer must be no. After all, he did it to protect her. However, to say that he wasn't sad would be a lie.
Lin Canghai stood there for a long time, and his expression gradually became solemn. A cold glint flashed through his eyes as he muttered to himself. "Azure Palace…"
