Chapter 451: 451 Leaving

451 Leaving

The girl who was chosen was called Bu Tingyue. She was completely in the dark about the whole thing, and had no idea where she was supposed to be going.

Was there really any place in the Alchemy Valley that had yet to be discovered? Furthermore, even if such a place existed, why would it take so long for her to return?

However, since the matter had already been decided, and she had already come this far, there was no need to be afraid. She just had to move forward courageously.

A fifth-level alchemist walked up to Bu Tingyue.

Greeting him respectfully, Bu Tingyue heard him say, “I’ll take you to meet that senior now, and you’ll be leaving with him. I’ll briefly explain the situation to you on the way there.”

“The Alchemist Valley is not the only realm in this world. There is a vast and boundless land beyond our Alchemist Valley.”

“This senior is from that vast and boundless land, and is about to leave the Alchemist Valley after completing his objectives. As we need information and time to understand the situation outside, we are sending you with him. You have to help us observe and investigate the outside world.”

“When you return to the valley one day, we will use the information you provide us to determine whether it is best for the citizens of the Alchemist Valley to stay put, or head out into the outside world to compete with the myriad races.”

The fifth-level alchemist had distilled and simplified his explanation as best as he could, but even so, it was not something Bu Tingyue could comprehend within such a short period of time.

Originally, Bu Tingyue thought that she was just going to some unknown place in the valley, but now she had to leave the valley?

This was unbelievable!

However, as opposed to fear, what she felt was excitement and anticipation.

She felt like she was going to explore new frontiers on behalf of her people, and see the world for what it truly was.

As such, she nodded seriously and answered, “Sir, don’t worry. I’ll definitely do my best and follow that Senior. I’ll investigate the outside world thoroughly!”

“Once I’m satisfied with what I’ve found, I will return to the valley and our people to help everyone make a decision on how to move forward.”

The fifth-level alchemist was overjoyed to hear this. They had indeed selected the right person. Others would have been terrified at the prospect of the unknown, especially alone. However, this girl was brimming with excitement, and was completely unfazed.

Then, they arrived at their destination and met up with Yuchi, who was standing at the edge of the valley.

‘Is he the Senior that Sir was talking about?’

Bu Tingyue had already spotted Yuchi.

When Yuchi turned to look at her, Bu Tingyue was quite surprised.

‘This Senior is quite young. He doesn’t look like those high-level alchemists at all.’

She then bowed and greeted Yuchi.

“Hello, senior,”

“Hello,” Yuchi replied, nodding his head.

Bu Tingyue was really surprised. She had no impression of this person at all. He was not famous, nor had she seen any news about him on the internet.

Was he really from another world?

He also looked human…

Did that mean that the outside world was the same as the Alchemist Valley?

Were there humans out there too?

Also, was he strong?

Yuchi was unaware of Bu Tingyue’s thoughts, and simply had a final chat with this fifth-level alchemist.

In any case, since the arrangements were already made, there was no reason to delay or stick around.

After the brief conversation concluded, Yuchi said to Bu Tingyue, “Let’s go.”

Bu Tingyue quickly nodded.

Then…

Her vision blurred, and her surroundings seemed to shift in and out of existence. Before she could come back to her senses, she had already disappeared from the Alchemist Valley and reappeared in the wilderness of the outside world.

…

In the Alchemist Valley, the fifth-level alchemists chose to keep this matter secret. When Bu Tingyue returned, it would be time to make the matter public.

Si Yuming and her grandfather were gazing up at the sky.

Everything felt so surreal. Even Yuchi’s existence was something that felt unbelievable when one thought about it.

Now, they had to prepare and increase their strength and understanding of alchemy. Only then would they be prepared for the day that Bu Tingyue would return, which would be when the fate and future of the Alchemist Valley would be determined.
