Chapter 117: Her Decision

Lowering her eyes, Xu Xiang frowned and thought: ’Choices... In the end, how many choices do I have to make?’

Just when Xu Xiang was irritated by the countless choices she had to make, Mu Yucheng’s calm and cold voice suddenly came.

"If Miss Xu wants to go back to your world, you should save it first. If the world will eventually perish, what is the point for you to go back." As he spoke, he looked directly into her eyes.

As if Mu Yucheng’s words pulled her out of the chaos within her mind, Xu Xiang’s thoughts instantly cleared up. She raised her head, looked at Mu Yucheng’s expressionless face, and said, "I understand."

She then looked at Mu Zhihe again and said, "I had made my decision. I will take this responsibility, as long as I can save my world. Even if there is only a slight chance for me to return to my world, I will take it. I will do my best to change the fate of our worlds."

Hearing her firm answer, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully at her. Mu Zhihe picked up the small wooden box on top of the table containing the Dragon and Phoenix ring, closed it, and handed it to his disciple.

He looked at Xu Xiang again, and said, "Miss Xu, I will let Yucheng accompany you on this long journey. With him by your side, your journey will be less dangerous. After you complete the prophecy, and if you want to return to your world, just tell Yucheng. I have already told him in advance how to send you back to your world."

Mu Zhihe paused for a moment, and then said, "Please remember that this is a one-way trip. After returning to your world, you will have no way to come back here. I hope you will choose carefully when the time comes."

As soon as he said these words, everyone present stood up, cupped their fists and bowed to her. Their voices were solemn and full of gratitude, when they said in unison: "We thank Miss Xu Xiang on behalf of all sentient beings in this world. Thank you for choosing to save our world."

Xu Xiang looked at those men who were older than her, and lowered her head in bewilderment. She could feel their sincerity in their demeanor and in their voices. Concealing her complicated mood, she took a deep breath, stood up, and clasped her fists then bowed back at them.

"Thank you for choosing to believe in me. I will not let everyone and myself down." She said solemnly while making the same vow in her heart.

Hearing that she indirectly agreed to their request, Mu Zhihe straightened up and smiled at her. His tone eased a lot when he said, "Miss Xu, since you are here, why don’t you stay here for a few days?"

Xu Xiang turned around and saw that the sky had brightened while they were talking. She looked back at Mu Zhihe and said, "Thank you, Sect Master Mu, for your offer. I will just rest for a while before going back to the Xiuluo tribe."

Now that she has made up her mind, Mu Zhihe didn’t force her to stay. He looked at his disciple and said, "Yucheng, can you take Miss Xu to the guest room?"

Mu Yucheng nodded to his master, clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Shifu.This disciple will take his leave first."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xu Xiang, motioned to her to follow him and said, "Miss Xu, please follow me."

Xu Xiang clasped her fists at Mu Zhihe and the others, then said, "I will take my leave first. Please stay, everyone."

After saying goodbye, she followed Mu Yucheng out of the hall. After they left the main hall, Mu Yucheng led her silently. They walked for more than thirty minutes, before she saw another row of beautiful buildings in front of them.

Mu Yucheng turned to look at her, "Miss Xu, do you want to live in a courtyard house or these buildings? This is the guest house where we usually entertain guests from other sects."

Xu Xiang looked around for a moment, while the disciples around there looked at the two with curious eyes. She thought for a while and said, "I like a quiet place. Can you show me the courtyard house instead?"

He nodded to her, and said expressionlessly: "Please come this way."

Seeing him walking towards another direction, she followed him silently. After walking for another twenty minutes, they stopped in front of a small courtyard.

Looking at her, Mu Yucheng said, "This is one of the private compounds of our sect. There are not many disciples living around here, and the scenery is not bad. Do you like it, Miss Xu?"

Looking at the beautiful courtyard, Xu Xiang couldn’t help thinking: ’The wealth of the Tian Jian Sect is really beyond what ordinary people like me can imagine.’

Not getting an answer from her, Mu Yucheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is Miss Xu dissatisfied with this courtyard? If that is the case, besides this courtyard, we still have several courtyards. Do you want to go and take a look?"

Hearing Mu Yucheng’s suggestion, Xu Xiang was pulled out from her thoughts, shook her head, and politely said, "This courtyard is very good. I just need to rest for a while, so there is no need to bother yourself with taking me to other places."

Listening to what she just said, he looked at her silently. Under Mu Yucheng’s calm gaze, Xu Xiang felt that this was even more nerve-wracking than fighting against the level nine zombie king before. She tried to remain as calm as possible under the invisible pressure emitted from his body, while bearing his gaze and pretending to look at the courtyard. After a few seconds that seemed forever, she heard his cold and calm voice come from her left side.
