Chapter 162 Back in Hometown
As to Gao Ge being expelled, the students in the Academy hold two opposite opinions.
Some are happy to see him expelled from the Academy, believing that Gao Ge has caused too many troubles in the Academy. It is good that he is expelled out of the Academy. Moreover, he did kill Chen Xiaoyi in the contest. Even if Chen Xiaoyi did something wrong, Gao Ge should also be punished. This is inexcusable.
Most of the favorers for the above opinion are those who were beaten by Gao Ge in the contest.
On the contrary, some believe that the Academy’s punishment is too harsh. Although Gao Ge did kill a student in the Academy, which is a grave crime indeed, the actual situation is obvious to all.
Chen Xiaoyi deserved being killed anyway.
Moreover, cultivators are supposed to get prepared for death anytime. This is what will happen on the way to Taoism.
A heated dispute occurs among the students, but it will not affect the management’s decision.
Gao Ge has to leave regardless.
That’s final.
Yue Xincheng and his other pals are filled with indignation while Gao Ge appears rather peaceful.
Everything just meets his expectation.
Only after he is expelled by the Cultivation Academy can he go to execute the special task.
He plans this out with Heaven Dragon but very few people know about it.
Yue Xincheng, Xia Lu and Meng Jing want to leave with Gao Ge.
Apart from them, there are some more students who have the same idea, including Chen Guo, Liang Bufan and Yang Rui.
Li Long and a group of students of No. 8 Class Chaos also claim to drop out of the Academy.
Actually, some of them don’t really want to leave the Academy. After all, they are not that close with Gao Ge. They just hope to force the Academy to make a compromise in this way.
However, the Cultivation Academy apparently won’t respond to their action. They can only give up after failing to gain any result.
Standing at the gate of the Cultivation Academy, Gao Ge has a complex feeling suddenly.
Though he knows that everything is planned and fake, he still feels rather sad.
Meng Jing walks to Gao Ge’s front and reaches out her hand to touch Gao Ge’s face. Her hand is a bit cold.
“I know, you are to carry out a task. I will not ask you anything about it. What I want is that you can come back safe and sound. After you return, you will find that your girlfriend becomes rather capable.” Meng Jing says seriously while watching Gao Ge.
Gao Ge nods his head heavily.
Meng Jing is very gifted and hardworking, who was a straight A student in school before. In light of her indomitability, it is very likely for her to become a top cultivator in the Cultivation Academy.
Gao Ge hugs Meng Jing for a while to feel her scent. Then Yue Xincheng runs over.
“Boss, I want a hug too!”
“Go away.” Gao Ge says directly.
Yue Xincheng says in a low voice, “Boss, where on earth are you going? I will pay you a visit when I have time.”
“Hmm. Interesting.”
“Forget it. I will not ask you then. Yet, if you encounter any undefeatable opponent, you just run away at once. After all, we have done it before.”
“Rest assured. I am not stupid.”
Xia Lu also arrives at Gao Ge’s front.
With slightly red eyes and a rigid facial expression, she hesitates for a while and yet doesn’t say anything.
“Is it about your brother?” Gao Ge asks.
Xia Lu is startled with her eye widening in great surprise.
“Xia Shengtang has been caught by the Dragon Court. I heard of it before.” Gao Ge says, “Yet, no worries. He will be fine soon.”
Xia Lu is not a fool.
Hearing what Gao Ge said, she quickly comes to her senses and bites her lips, asking, “Is this one of the conditions in the agreement you reach with them?”
“Emm.” Gao Ge says, “As long as I complete the task, the Dragon Court will forgive Xia Shengtang’s past misdeeds.”
Xia Lu suddenly has no idea what to say.
“Thank you...”
Gao Ge says grinningly, “If you must thank me for this, I will thank you for many times. You have done me a lot of favors. I must help you once anyway.”
Then he takes a few steps backwards and waves his hand at his friends. Carrying his bag, he turns around to leave.
Suddenly, Liang Bufan shouts loudly, “Gao Ge, if you have any laundry to do, bring it back. I will do it for you!”
Gao Ge doesn’t look back.
Even if he knows the separation is temporary but under such a circumstance, he still feels rather sad.
He can hear the sobbing of Meng Jing behind him as well as Yue Xincheng’s sighing.
Yet, he doesn’t dare to look back.
He has a feeling that if he doesn’t leave resolutely now, it will become harder for him to leave then.
“Crap, Heaven Dragon, let’s wait and see. I must make trouble for you as long as I find an opportunity...” Gao Ge thinks to himself angrily.
Despite that, in fact, Gao Ge doesn’t hold a grave grudge against them.

After all, the Dragon Court stands for Huaxia.
To be more specific, the Dragon Court’s interest also equals to the country’s interest.
It is his obligation to do something for them.
Besides, if he doesn’t, then the Dragon Court member will need to do it. Yet, it is more likely for them to be exposed than him.
Just like the Dragon Court knowing about all the cultivation schools, the cultivation schools and ancient martial arts families also have a lot of knowledge about the Dragon Court. Great chances are that they have acquired the information of many Dragon Court members.
They are worried that the Dragon Court members may enter their schools as a spy.
Gao Ge doesn’t feel relieved until he gets on the high-speed train back to Jiangnan City.
“It is not bad to go back home.” He thinks to himself.
Looking at the view outside the window, Gao Ge falls into deep thought.
He is pondering over what Heaven Dragon said to him.
According to Heaven Dragon, what he needs to do now is to leave the Cultivation Academy first.
After he returns to Jiangnan City, someone will let him know what to do next.
The pressing matter of the moment is to get infiltrated into the enemy.
However, by now, Gao Ge has no idea who is his enemy and what he needs to do.
It gives Gao Ge a feeling of great insecurity. Maybe it is because the Dragon Court doesn’t trust him enough, worrying that something unexpected may happen if they tell him the whole plan. It is understandable. If he were Heaven Dragon, he might do the same thing.
Having been back in Jiangnan City, Gao Ge takes a deep breath and strides forward.
He is back in his hometown.
It is pitiful that he is not returning home after getting fame or money.
Instead, he comes back a bit down and out.
In the taxi back to home, Gao Ge is checking the phone calendar.
Suddenly, he receives a text.
“Welcome back. If you have time, come by to visit me.”
