Shao Academy

Hao Yu stretched lazily. 

His age was around 50, 000 years old. 

He had been a teacher for 40,000 years at Shao Academy. 

"Time to work..."

In fact he didn't want to work. 

He had many spirit stones and plenty of elixir his student Lin Feng made over the years for him.

However Hao Yu still chose to work, otherwise he would feel like a useless person. 

"Sigh~ Shao academy sure is lively today. The music event sure is popular..."

He brought his Guqin out and placed it in his storage ring. 

...

...

...

Liao Ling looked all over and saw many students holding instruments.

'Is this a music competition?'

While she was walking, all the immortals got out of her way. Mainly because she was just too....stunningly beautiful. 

Her red dress flowed along the wind. 

Her eyes holding authoritative power. 

Someone so beautiful usually have something unique to them, whether it was aptitude or background. 

Only scums and morons would try to offend beautiful people. After all, good looks can kill in the cultivator world.

"Excuse me, what event is this?" Liao Ling asked a nearby student gently.

"EEK!"

'...A-aren't you too easily scared?'

"T-this event is a music event. Competitions and playing music...."

Then they quickly left after answering. 

'They left so fast that I couldn't ask about Hao Yu...'

"WOOO! TEACHER HAO YU YOU LOOK SO HANDSOME HAHAHA!!! THATS MY TEACHER WOOOOO!" 

A male voie rang out. 

Liao Ling turned to the voice and saw a large crowd near the stage.

'Fuck, now that you graduated why are you still here embarrassing me for?!'

The person who had yelled such embarrassing was another student of his. Similar to Feng Leng, this student was also someone who had a rough beginning, but eventually became a Great immortal. 

This student was called Yang Yun. 

He came from a family that had the grounding of weapon refiners. 

Yang Yun and his father was originally getting casted out by his family members, but suddenly he became powerful and became the next patriarch. 

'You sure have a lot of free time, huh.'

Hao Yu smiled outwardly, but was annoyed by this student of his. His face scrunched even more when he saw a bunch of girls by Yang Yun's side.

'Happy thought, happy thoughts.'

He regained composure. 

.....

Liao Ling stared speechlessly at Hao Yu. Even though she could clearly remember Meng Yu's face.

"I-It's him!"

However unlike Meng Yu, Hao Yu exuded a godly aura. To Liao Ling who was now a Emperor Immortal though, she could feel familiarity. 

She looked at her palm as the fires lit up. The fire moved happily around and felt even stronger than she had ever felt it when she was using it alone. 

....

...

Hao Yu got on stage and set his Guqin.

Hao Yu closed his eyes and played the Guqin, plucking the strings smoothly. 

Liao Lings tears began to well up as she finally found the love of her life again. 

To cultivators there were two paths they could take. 

To let go or obsessed with it. 

To let go, would mean to lose your emotions and just become a cultivator with only logical thoughts. 

To obsess with it, is to increase the emotion-such as rage, humiliation, and vengeance. Doing so would allow the Cultivator to never forget why they push themselves forward. 

Liao Ling was...obsessed with the past. She had chosen to take vengeance for her husband. 

Never once had she forgotten that day. 

Hao Yu plucked some more and as he comes to close, his hand moves off the Guqin softly, like a feather. 

*Clap, clap, clap*

The whole audience clapped and Hao Yu bowed. 

"Now, I hope you students can take today to have fun and relax!"

With that ending statement, he got off stage. 

Liao Ling followed shortly after. 

What she didn't know was...there was a figure following from behind her.
