Chapter Twenty: Tian Yue's Return

"The snow and ice have melted, and Han Tianyue has returned!" Although Tutor Qin was still indignant about nearly losing his life to his own iron fist, seeing the snow dissolve around him and hearing Tutor Yun's words, he had no choice but to turn and leave.

At this moment, although he could fully control himself, Han Tianyue was still immersed deep within his soul, calling out, "Elder, Elder!"

Han Tianyue kept shouting for the elder, but received no answer.

Tutor Yun and Tutor Song repeatedly called Han Tianyue’s name, but when he showed no reaction and the snow did not reappear, they could only stand aside and wait for his next move.

After calling for a long time with no response, Han Tianyue’s soul let out a long sigh.

They waited quietly for a while, and when they heard Han Tianyue sigh, everyone tensed up.

"Tutor Song, Tutor Yun, Tutor Zhang, and all the seniors, greetings!" Han Tianyue had known they were there for some time; he simply hadn’t been able to control himself earlier. Now, having regained control, his first act was to greet them.

"It seems he’s completely recovered now," Tutor Yun said.

"But we can’t let our guard down," Tutor Zhang cautioned.

Tutor Song stepped forward with a smile. "Han Tianyue, you actually survived!"

Han Tianyue smiled gently.

Only then did Tutor Zhang relax.

"Then, teachers, I’ll head back now," Han Tianyue didn’t wish to say more. He bade farewell to the three tutors and Xin Zhong and the others, heading straight for the dormitory.

"How did he come back from the dead?" Luo Ye wondered aloud.

"I suspect it was a false death," Tutor Yun explained. "Boka broke the restriction inside him, causing him to appear dead. When the cold energy burst out of him, it broke the false death state, and so he revived!"

Though the explanation was somewhat forced, it was the only way to make sense of what had happened. Everyone accepted Tutor Yun’s reasoning and did not pursue the matter further, for compared to the annual graduation competition, this was merely a minor episode.

When Han Tianyue returned to the dormitory, the loudest exclamation came from Feng Shang, who, upon seeing Han Tianyue, cried out in a mix of fear and delight, "How come you’re not dead?"

Han Tianyue shrugged. "I was never dead to begin with."

No one knew what Han Tianyue had endured, but his return was enough for them.

"Wonderful!" Feng Shang cheered, quickly cozying up to him. "A brush with death brings good fortune. Brother, when you make it big, don’t forget me!"

Han Tianyue nodded fiercely.

Everyone erupted in celebration.

Only Fang Zhe remained unmoved.
