Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 407 - 417 Farewell

Originally, Chu Feng had planned to entrust the Northern Beixie Empire to his senior brother. However, considering the formidable threat of the Panlong Crown Prince was still at large, and that several evil disciples had betrayed him,

he must proceed with caution.

A tall tree catches the wind!

His senior brother was merely the monarch of the small Jianyun Dynasty. In the eyes of Chu Feng’s powerful enemies, he might be no different than an ant. They might not even bother to pay attention to him.

Because the Jianyun Dynasty didn’t even have a warrior at the Sword Saint Level.

In the eyes of the true powerhouses, it was too weak to mention.

If the Northern Beixie Empire were to be handed over to Chu Jianlan as well, that would be a different story altogether. He would immediately draw the attention of those significant figures, which would only bring calamity to his senior brother in the end.

Even now, Chu Feng was secretly preparing to disassociate himself from his senior brother and sister at the critical moment.

So as not to involve them in any trouble.

When Chu Feng left the Royal Capital, all the civilians spontaneously saw off the hero.

In the Royal Capital, Chu Feng had slain a total of six hundred thousand barbarian soldiers. He had long been regarded as a hero by the people of the Jianyun Dynasty. Many of them had come to view him as their guardian deity.

Originally, almost everyone hoped that Chu Feng would become the new Emperor.

With Chu Feng abdicating the Imperial Throne in favor of his senior brother, the civilians and ministers were quite helpless, only able to accept this reality. Now, as Chu Feng was about to leave, they were filled with reluctance.

They spontaneously lined up to see off Chu Feng as a way to express their inner gratitude and reluctance.

"Bon voyage, King of Chu!"

The loud calls of the citizens rose and fell, wave after wave.

"Thank you! Thank you, everyone! Please go back!" Chu Feng was deeply moved, and waved his hands again and again to the civilians, ministers, and soldiers who were on both sides of the road to see him off.

"The degree of popularity that my husband has in the Sword Cloud Dynasty is quite high!" Han Xiaoying said to Chu Feng with a smile.

She had been very independent since childhood, with little reliance on her family.

Due to her outstanding Sword Dao talent and possession of Seven-star Sword Veins, she had entered the Ten Thousand Sword Sect at a very young age. So, when she bid farewell to her family, she didn’t seem too sentimental.

In truth, the only one in the Han Family she truly worried about was the Han Family Master.

As for the other members of her family, the bond was very weak, and they did not have much interaction.

In the past, the elders of the Han Family had been firmly against her marriage with Chu Feng. Even the Han Family Master had been opposed to it.

However, the attitude of the Han Family today was completely different.

Chu Feng was no longer the person he used to be. He not only had become the Emperor’s own brother but also had been promoted to a True Disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. He had led three Sword Gods and over five hundred warriors above Great Sword Master level, sweeping through the Jianyun Dynasty’s army and eradicating the barbarian soldiers of the Three Outer Domain’s Clans, truly stealing the limelight.

The Han Family, who previously looked down on Chu Feng, deeming him of low birth without sword meridians and unworthy of Han Xiaoying,

could now only look up to Chu Feng.

"Xiao Ying, I have abdicated the throne to my senior brother; do you have any grievances?" Chu Feng asked Han Xiaoying, who was as ethereal as a fairy, with a smile.

"What grievances could I possibly have? I’m not even willing to be the Empress! To be dressed so formally every day, to follow so many rules, dealing with laborious matters — it would be dead annoying. Being a True Disciple in the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, striving hard in cultivation to advance to the Sword Saint Realm as soon as possible and then being able to travel the world with you by controlling the sword, that’s the life I want."

"Besides, you could relinquish the throne to your elder brother without a second thought, which sufficiently shows you are a man of deep affection and loyalty."

"Such a reliable man is bound to make me very happy in the future!"

Who says women with larger chests are brainless?

Han Xiaoying’s display of high intelligence left even Chu Feng feeling humbled.

...

As Chu Feng approached the city gate, he saw a number of familiar figures at the roadside.

They were his old teachers and classmates from his days at the Alchemy Academy, including the respected dean.

Niu Baotian, Xie Bing, and all of Chu Feng’s classmates were present.

Those former classmates all looked up to Chu Feng with adoration. In fact, it could be said to be to the point of being almost servile. Many of them subconsciously slouched and bent over, greeting Chu Feng with flattery in their smiles.

For these classmates who were currying favor, Chu Feng simply nodded indifferently as a response, not intending to engage in much conversation.

He walked toward the dean and the others.

"Dean!" Chu Feng greeted the dean first.

"Good lad, I never thought that in just a year or two, you would emerge from your cocoon and achieve such impressive accomplishments. Although you’ve left the Alchemy Academy, don’t forget that it is your alma mater. When you return, make sure to visit your old school and look around," said the dean, who still carried an air of authority without arrogance, resembling the benevolent mentor he had always been.

Chu Feng couldn’t help but feel a sense of respect for the dean, nodding earnestly and making a promise.

"Rest assured, dean, no matter how high the achievements I, Chu Feng, may reach in the future, I will never forget the help and guidance I received at the Alchemy Academy. Whenever I return to Sword Cloud Royal City, I will definitely visit the Alchemy Academy to see the dean and Teacher Xie Bing and others."

"Besides, I have already instructed my senior brother to take care of the Alchemy Academy."

After speaking, Chu Feng’s gaze shifted to Niu Baotian.

He pulled a Detoxification Pill from his chest.

"Director Niu, I think you might find this elixir useful. It can eliminate the residual poison in your body." With Chu Feng’s current status and strength, he no longer needed to use Niu Baotian to do anything for him.

It was time to grant Niu Baotian his freedom.

"Thank you! If possible, even if it means serving as a mere servant by King of Chu’s side, I, Niu Baotian, would consider it a sweet deal!" Niu Baotian was well aware of Chu Feng’s abilities.

Publicly, he was Chu Feng’s teacher. Privately, Chu Feng was his mentor.

Upon hearing Niu Baotian’s words, everyone else was taken aback.

Niu Baotian was the sitting alchemist of the Pharmacist Guild and also their Chief Alchemist. Such a person, willing to serve as a servant to Chu Feng—and even pleading desperately for the opportunity.

Even if Chu Feng were the Emperor’s own brother, would that warrant such submission?

They all looked at Niu Baotian with puzzlement, speculating what unknown secrets there could be.

"We can discuss this matter later! It would be better for Director Niu to continue serving as a sitting alchemist at the Pharmacist Guild!" Chu Feng rejected Niu Baotian’s request.

His gaze then turned to the alluring Teacher Xie Bing, his eyes softening, and a trace of affection could be seen.

Truthfully, Teacher Xie Bing was the first kind beautiful stranger he had met after his rebirth.

His sister-in-law was kind to Chu Feng because of their familial bond, as was Chu Yun.

But Teacher Xie Bing’s kindness towards Chu Feng was solely based on their teacher-student relationship.

She was a very beautiful and exceptional teacher.

After Chu Feng was reborn, it was also a time when he was most emotionally vulnerable. It was she who gave Chu Feng a bit of emotional support, as well as a special warmth that his sister-in-law and second sister could not provide.
