Chapter 177: Choosing a Path in Life, Where is Your Heart Headed?
On the top of the holy mountain, a gentle breeze blew, ruffling the sleeves of Bi Yao and Li Yuan.
They stood side by side, looking at the fairy world that was revitalized at the foot of the mountain, but an indescribable complex emotion surged in their hearts.
The air was filled with the faint scent of grass, and the sun shone gently on them. Everything seemed so peaceful and harmonious. However, beneath this calmness lay the turmoil in their hearts.
Bi Yao's gaze moved slowly into the distance. That was the place she had once been desperate to escape from, but now it had become the home she had poured her heart and soul into protecting.
She thought of the hustle and bustle and convenience of the modern world, the towering skyscrapers, the fast and efficient mobile devices, and the modern culture at her fingertips, all of which made her miss it.
That was everything she was once familiar with, and it was the hometown that she could not let go of in the depths of her soul.
However, when she turned to look at Li Yuan beside her, all her thoughts became blurred.
Li Yuan, the man who occupied an important position in her life, his hearty laughter seemed to still echo in her ears, and his warm embrace still made her feel at ease.
She couldn't imagine what her life would be like if she left here and left Li Yuan.
Thinking of this, an unspeakable pain suddenly surged into her heart, tightly gripping her heart.
She frowned slightly, her delicate face full of struggle.
Li Yuan sensed Bi Yao's hesitation, so he reached out and gently held her cold fingertips.
He could feel Bi Yao's inner conflict and struggle, which was a difficult problem that he could not decide for her.
He knew very well that Bi Yao came from another world, where she had ties that she could not break away from.
He wanted to respect Bi Yao's choice, but was afraid of losing her. This fear was like an lingering haze, casting a shadow on his originally cheerful face.
The immortal cultivators in the distance looked at Bi Yao and Li Yuan standing side by side on the top of the holy mountain, their eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.
They whispered to each other, speculating about the future whereabouts of the two saviors.
Some people think that they will choose to stay in the fairy world and continue to protect this land; others think that they will leave here and go to other wider worlds.
Various speculations are intertwined, creating a tense and mysterious atmosphere.
"Yaoyao..." Li Yuan called softly, breaking the silence around him.
His voice was soft, yet full of tenderness and reluctance, and it sounded especially clear on this quiet mountain top.
Bi Yao raised her head and looked at Li Yuan with complicated eyes. Their eyes met, and all their emotions were communicated silently.
At this moment, a steady voice broke the silence.
"You two..."
A cultivator with white hair and a youthful face, dressed in a plain white robe, slowly approached. He had an immortal demeanor, and his every move exuded a transcendent aura.
He bowed to Bi Yao and Li Yuan, his voice steady and powerful, "Two saviors, no matter what choice you make, the world of immortal heroes will always remember your achievements. You saved this land, and we will never forget your kindness."
His words echoed in the valley like a huge bell, reaching the ears of every cultivator.
For a moment, voices of agreement rose one after another, and words of praise and admiration poured towards Bi Yao and Li Yuan like a tide.
"We will never forget the kindness of the two saviors!"
"You are the heroes of the immortal world!"
"Wherever you go, we sincerely wish you well!"
Bi Yao and Li Yuan were bathed in the praise, and a warm feeling surged in their hearts.
They looked at each other and couldn't help but smile with relief on their faces.
Bi Yao felt unprecedentedly relaxed, and the huge rock that had been weighing on her heart seemed to have disappeared.
She once worried that her departure would disappoint the people here, but now she understands that no matter where she is, her bond with this land will always exist.
Li Yuan held Bi Yao's hand tightly and looked at her with deep eyes. He used this silent way to tell Bi Yao that no matter what decision she made, he would support her unconditionally.
Bi Yao felt the warmth of Li Yuan's palm, and a warm current surged through her body.
She leaned gently on Li Yuan's shoulder, feeling his warmth and strength.
When the cultivators around saw this scene, they all showed envy on their faces.
They witnessed the deep friendship between the two saviors, the hardships they experienced together, and their ultimate happiness.
The air was filled with a sweet scent, as if even the wind had become gentle.
After a long time, Bi Yao raised his head, looked into the distance with a firm gaze, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
She spoke softly, her voice clear and loud: "Li Yuan..."
Bi Yao and Li Yuan felt the subtle change in the atmosphere around them.
The originally joyful faces of some immortal cultivators gradually became covered with a shadow, and their eyes revealed anxiety and worry.
The whispers gradually became clearer and flooded into Bi Yao and Li Yuan's ears like a tide.
"If they leave, what will happen to this world of immortals?" A young cultivator whispered with a hint of trembling in his voice.
"Yes, they are our saviors. If they leave, won't we lose our protection?" Another cultivator echoed, frowning.
"Without their guidance, how can we face future challenges?" An elderly cultivator sighed, his voice low and weak, as if he had foreseen the future crisis.
These sounds were like sharp needles, piercing Bi Yao and Li Yuan's hearts.
They never imagined that their departure would cause such panic and anxiety.
They felt the burden on their shoulders was heavier, and their hearts were filled with contradictions and struggles.
"Li Yuan..." Bi Yao called softly, her voice trembling a little, with a hint of helplessness and apology.
Li Yuan held Bi Yao's hand tightly and gave her an encouraging look.
He knew that Bi Yao must be suffering more than he was.
At this moment, Bi Yao suddenly raised her head, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Everyone, I have an idea!"
Her voice was clear and powerful, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The surrounding discussions stopped abruptly, and all eyes were focused on Bi Yao, filled with confusion and expectation.
"Before I leave, I want to build an academy for the Xianxia world!" Bi Yao's eyes sparkled with excitement, her voice filled with passion and confidence, "A school that integrates modern knowledge and Xianxia knowledge!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Everyone was stunned, with expressions of surprise on their faces, including Li Yuan.
The idea was too bold, too novel, and completely beyond their imagination.
Bi Yao paused and continued, "In this academy, we can combine modern science and technology with the way of cultivating immortals, so that cultivators can learn more and broader knowledge, so as to better develop the world of immortal heroes!" Her tone was firm and powerful, as if she had already seen the glorious scene of the future academy.
The cultivators began to whisper to each other, and they began to think about the feasibility of this proposal.
The originally tense atmosphere gradually eased, replaced by an atmosphere of thinking and exploration.
"This idea... seems very interesting..." A young cultivator whispered, with curiosity glittering in his eyes.
"Yes, if we can combine modern knowledge with immortal cultivation knowledge, perhaps we can really create a more powerful force!" Another immortal cultivator echoed, his tone full of anticipation.
Li Yuan looked at Bi Yao who was talking freely.
"Yaoyao, you..." Li Yuan was about to speak but was interrupted by Bi Yao.
"I know what you want to say," Bi Yao turned to look at Li Yuan and gave him a comforting smile, "Let's call this school 'Yaoyuan School'."
As soon as Bi Yao finished speaking, a loud voice came from the crowd: "I support it!" The loud voice came from a cultivator with a burly figure and a rough face. He was a famous weapon refining master in the world of immortals, named Tie Zhen.
Tie Zhen's public support was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing a thousand waves.
More and more immortal cultivators expressed their agreement. They were inspired by Bi Yao’s ideas and saw hope for the future development of the immortal world.
"Good! Yaoyuan Academy, this name is good!" A crisp female voice sounded. The speaker was a young female cultivator named Lingxi. She was a leader of the younger generation in the world of immortals. She was full of desire for knowledge and was extremely excited about Bi Yao's proposal.
"We support it too!" A group of young cultivators shouted in unison, their eyes flashing with a desire for knowledge and full of longing for the future.
The cheers in the valley grew louder and louder, converging into a powerful force that shook the entire world of immortals.
These cheers contained hope for the future, a desire for knowledge, as well as gratitude and admiration for Bi Yao and Li Yuan.
Bi Yao and Li Yuan smiled at each other, their hearts filled with joy and emotion.
They see that their efforts are recognized and their dedication is rewarded.
They knew that they had done something of extraordinary significance for the world of immortal heroes, which would become an important milestone in the history of the development of the world of immortal heroes.
As the sun sets, the golden afterglow shines on the top of the holy mountain, stretching the figures of Bi Yao and Li Yuan into slender shapes.
They stood side by side, looking at the cultivators cheering at the foot of the mountain, their hearts filled with hope and confidence.
"Yaoyao," Li Yuan gently held Bi Yao's hand. The warm touch made Bi Yao feel at ease. "Let's work together to build Yaoyuan Academy into the best academy in the world of immortal heroes!"
Bi Yao turned to look at Li Yuan, a determined light flashing in her eyes, "Yes, let's go together!"
As night falls and the sky becomes starry, tranquility returns to the top of the holy mountain.
Bi Yao and Li Yuan returned to their residence and began to prepare for the establishment of the school.
Bi Yao spread out a huge parchment scroll, on which was the blueprint of Yaoyuan Academy that she had drawn based on the layout of modern universities and combined with the characteristics of the fairy world.
Li Yuan was sorting out various books and materials on the side. These were collected from various sects and covered all aspects of cultivating immortals.
"Li Yuan, look," Bi Yao pointed to an area on the parchment scroll, "here, I want to build a library and put all the books we have collected here for the students of the academy to read."
Li Yuan nodded. "That's a good idea! I'll go check out a few more sects. Maybe I can find some precious ancient books."
Bi Yao's eyes sparkled with excitement. "I also want to build an alchemy room, a weapon refining room, and a..."
Bi Yao talked incessantly about her ideas, while Li Yuan listened attentively and offered some suggestions from time to time.
They are so absorbed in planning for the future that they lose track of time.
Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence in the room.
"Who?" Li Yuan asked.
"It's me, Tie Zhen." A steady voice came from outside the door.
Li Yuan opened the door and saw Tie Zhen standing outside with an anxious look on his face, "Something happened..."
