Heroes' Prison

Chapter 759 - 724 Farewell Moment

As soon as he logged in, Huang Yi noticed Yue Yue, Haitang, Shuimo Qingxiang, Tingxi, and even Tiantian Shuijiao, who rarely went online, were all sitting in the house, seemingly waiting specifically for him.

Seeing Huang Yi log in, Yue Yue immediately stood up, her eyes filled with concern as she looked at him, she bit her soft lips and tenderly said, "Disciple, are you leaving today?"

"Yes! I’ve reached level 100, and I’ll be leaving today, boarding a ship at New Harbor City!" Huang Yi nodded, this had been his plan from the beginning, to head to the Central Continent once he recovered to level 100. The Central Continent was immeasurably remote, and it would take an extended period to get there even by fast ship, so he needed to set off early.

A somber silence fell over the room as the five girls all went quiet. Haitang’s eyes reddened as she couldn’t bear to let go of Huang Yi’s hand, she straightened out his collar and said, "Disciple, I really hate to see you go. The past few months have been so happy with you and the other masters. But you have your own world to conquer. Let’s go pray at the temples, and then we will see you off!"

Huang Yi opened his mouth but couldn’t find the words to say, and in the end, he just nodded vigorously.

The six of them left the house together and came to the yard outside.

Huang Yi turned his head to take one last look at the peaceful yard. He had lived here for over three months, having been brought back by Yue Yue as a tiny kitten and had lived here ever since. If Yue Yue hadn’t taken him in, he might still be wandering the streets without a home.

Many afternoons were spent in silence, with the sun shining on the big tree in the yard, casting a cool shade, cicadas singing, and a gentle breeze blowing. He loved to nap in the wicker chair under the tree, undisturbed no matter how long; he could brew a cup of tea, hold a book, and sit under the tree for the whole day; he could barbecue, play, and frolic with the five vibrant young girls in this yard, sending cheerful laughter over the walls.

His life had never seemed as tranquil as it had these past few months, as if he was an ordinary person living quietly day by day. His dream was to live such a life with Qin Shiyu.

But their enemies had not yet been defeated, and he could not continue to live in tranquility. He had to leave this place and continue on the road, fighting against dangerous foes.

Afterward, he might never return here again.

Leaving the yard, the six of them walked on the small town streets, so familiar were the small alleys and roads. Passing the barbecue shop, Huang Yi suddenly glanced inside, reminded of the many times they went to the Tower of Pantheons and would pass by, with Haitang often going in to buy barbecue.

On the walls of that barbecue shop were remnants of old promotional posters, now weather-beaten and faded by the rain, their words no longer legible.

Time had passed too quickly; these few months felt like a beautiful dreamland.

"Disciple, your master is going to buy you barbecue one last time!" At that moment, Haitang, with tears in her eyes, rushed into the barbecue shop.

Soon, she came out carrying a big bunch of kebabs, distributing them to everyone, then stuffing the remaining handful into Huang Yi’s hands, she touched his forehead tenderly and said, "Disciple, we have money now. Whenever you are short, remember to come back and ask us!"

Huang Yi smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, "I don’t lack money, but you can ask me anytime if you run out!"

He alone had several trillion Gold Coins. Even if he gave them a billion at a time, it would take tens of thousands of times to run out. But the last time, through an auction, he had left enough Gold Coins with the five girls for them to live on for a lifetime.

As usual, chatting and laughing, everyone arrived at the Heroism Religion temple.

This temple stood within a garden filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, rockeries, and water features designed with care. The temple, grand and ancient, sat in the center of the garden. It was round in shape, with stairs on all sides leading to a tall central hall.

This was the most majestic building in the quaint little town, where just recently they had worked almost day and night to construction the new chapel, gathering virtually all the players in the town to build this temple, which was finally completed after days of hard work.

Once the temple was completed, the Legion of Demons Guild appointed the five girls as the managers of this temple. Practically everyone in the small town had become a believer of the Heroism Religion, and they would come to pray every day.

At this moment, some people were coming and going in the temple, greeting the six warmly upon seeing them. The girls had built a significant reputation in the town. The bullies from before: Unbeatable Blade, Zhang Tian, and Holy Light, didn’t dare to trouble them anymore.

The six entered the temple, where the ground was covered in thick red carpeting, and the surrounding windows were colored, diffusing sunlight into a gentle glow. The walls of the hall bore murals related to Huang Yi, such as his rescue of Dragon City and his defeat of a hundred Holy Domain Warriors in the Half-Beast Holy Land. The painted style was ancient, as if it had been a part of history itself.

In front of the hall, there stood a statue of Huang Yi holding the Bloodstained War Halberd, pointing angrily at the sky as if he had the spirit to battle the heavens themselves.

Currently, many were kneeling on one knee beneath Huang Yi’s statue, praying solemnly.
