Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2315: Chapter 2310: A Happy Ending for All

The Other Shore descended into the mortal world.

At that moment, what Fu Qian did was simple, bringing back the suffering soul who had just been freed from the Other Shore.

Considering the swift exchange, the mental dance was already over, and the now calm person showed no abnormality during this process, emotions stable.

However, the audience wasn’t calm.

A few casual words and laughter, and the missing pieces were complete once more, the gloom dispersed.

Even a little sensitivity would let one feel the aura of this perfectly complete ending.

The issue was, the audience’s sensitivity wasn’t just minimal.

”Professor Fu...”

The quiet observer, Wen Li, who had held her silence since earlier, was the first to look over at that moment and softly called out.

It wasn’t strange, having confirmed earlier that she wasn’t a victim of the Brain Dance, her quick reaction was understandable.

Overall, she was the Brain Dance’s biggest beneficiary.

One could only say such treatment fit the destiny of a daughter of fate, her luck simply beyond reason.

This very reason made Wen Li the most objective about the entire treatment process.

The oddities within were hard for her to ignore.

For example, the return of the suffering soul.

Perhaps the process was imperceptible to a demigod, but the abnormal reactions earlier were unquestionably real.

Such as casually recalling... why Old Master Veron seemed unaware of who was being treated when asked?

More so, why Professor Yang, seeing a patient’s skull had been opened, wished for a full check-up of the institute first?

Even a little logical thought could sense something off.

Not to mention Miss Wen, as a soul singer, was particularly attuned to others’ emotions.

”He... seems no longer tormented...”

As expected, the next moment Wen Li could hardly hide her surprise, pointing at the seat, indicating the treatment was truly effective.

...

How clever.

Though she sensed abnormalities, she redirected the topic to the treatment’s effectiveness without needing a prompt.

Miss Wen’s reaction was somewhat emotional, yet to Fu Qian, the deeper meaning was clear.

This action defended not only herself but also benefited Old Master Veron and the others.

Otherwise, how should the two professors react? Just remain in stalemate?

The pair, though seemingly lost in a dream, hadn’t completely lost their rationality. Silent, they struggled logically with the earlier issues.

Even if they suspected Professor Fu of some unusual maneuver, how should they ask?

Would questioning guarantee a willing answer?

Even if answered, would this idiot-like experience throughout really sound good?

It’s better to embrace life’s confusion, skip this part, and focus on the good life now.

In sum, despite chills when considering the details of the daughter of fate’s ascension, Wen Li remained grateful towards the Spirit Ash.

Her performance at this moment was more to aid the old masters.

”Yes, I’ve checked as well, but it’s best to treat his wound.”

Moved by this sentiment, Fu Qian cooperated at once, spinning Mercy like a gun flourish and sliding it back into his pocket.

...

The craniotomy was successful; the individual was no longer troubled.

Everyone present was smart, it should be easy to understand these actions and words.

”The harm isn’t serious...”

As expected, Fu Qian’s actions finally provoked a reaction from the old professors.

Awakening from the dream, as Veron spoke, he cleared his throat first, though his voice still sounded slightly dry.

Watching the person with the opened cranium, he still displayed the demeanor of the Spirit Ash’s authority, implying the best medicine is often bitter, insisting Professor Fu’s actions weren’t heavy-handed.

”Indeed, there’s no issue now... I can feel it.”

Professor Yang, too, was only slightly slower, confirming from the side that Wen Li’s words were correct.

”However...”

Yet, his furrowed brows hadn’t completely relaxed, as if recalling something, he looked upwards, hesitating to speak.

”Others are fine as well.”

Fu Qian fully understood what Professor Yang worried about, directly continuing with the diagnostic results.

Regardless, the two psychic series masters were bound to detect the abnormalities within themselves.

Even if unspoken now, it couldn’t help but remind them of the Spirit Ash counterparts they previously thought trouble-free.

As for Fu Qian, he was very certain all Spirit Ash mentors had calmed down, not one slipped through.

The claim of sending them to the Other Shore wasn’t false, Fu Qian monitored everyone, keeping this as a backup plan.

If the Brain Dance collapsed too slowly or managed to sustain itself with difficulty, he would have pulled everyone into the Other Shore directly.

After all, the Burial Scroll’s effects are time-limited. If unresolved this time, it’s hard to imagine what the situation would evolve into within twenty-four hours.

Especially considering the different effects between the two worlds, where duration here is even shorter than in the Witch’s realm.

”Thank you so much... We should have sought Professor Fu’s help earlier.”

While sorting through the treatment process, Veron and Professor Yang, already having completed an eye exchange over the overly favorable diagnostic results, ended with Veron sighing and earnestly expressing thanks.

...

So all those troubles, resolved with a single cranial pressure release?

Though completely unbelievable, looking at the entire process, that’s exactly what happened.

No matter the attitude, Professor Fu had repeatedly demonstrated reliable judgments, the Spirit Ash duo felt lifted despite their confusion.

”If there’s further need for Spirit Ash’s assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

Without waiting for Fu Qian to be polite, even the usually less amicable Professor Yang added a prompt, emphasizing it wasn’t a mere verbal exchange.

”Haven’t you already contributed?”

To this, Fu Qian merely laughed smoothly, gesturing towards Wen Li with a jaunty nod.

”This collaboration was quite successful; when getting Night Watchman’s certification, just remember to include Heaven’s Commencement Institute in the acknowledgments.”

... So it’s still led by Spirit Ash?

At first glance, it seemed like taking credit for benevolence, claiming victory, but the nuance was immediately understood by all present.

Though Wen Li indeed became a demigod eventually, considering the process’s oddity and danger, even if this academic leader tried to credit-claim forcefully, Spirit Ash seemingly had little to object.

The result required only a mention in the acknowledgments?

This tongue-in-cheek statement fully acknowledged Spirit Ash’s leadership and could even back Wen Li’s achievements under its banner.

”There’s still time, you could stay here and further learn from the professors.”

Before the Spirit Ash duo could respond courteously, Fu Qian already continued instructing Wen Li.

”Alright.”

Wen Li also immediately agreed, without objection.
