At the same time.
In that white light, figures were continuously appearing.
Without exception, all of these people initially appeared bewildered, but upon seeing Xue An, they immediately descended to the ground and walked forward.
"Ma... Master?"
At this moment, everyone was still a bit uncertain because the current Xue An seemed even younger than when he had taught them before.
Xue An gave a faint smile and nodded, "It’s me!"
Upon hearing Xue An personally admit it and confirm it wasn’t a dream, the disciples immediately knelt on the ground, deeply bowing to Xue An with choking voices.
"Disciple, greets Master!"
Xue An said calmly, "Stand up, all of you."
Only then did these people rise, their faces full of excitement.
Because they never expected that Xue An would suddenly appear and rescue them from the seal.
No need to ask.
Since the Master has returned, the troublemaker from before must have already been dealt with.
At this moment, Xue An’s gaze swept over each of their faces and finally sighed lightly, "All these years... you have suffered!"
Hearing this, these people all showed a look of shame on their faces.
Among them, the oldest, wearing a blue long robe, looked like a scholarly elder, took a step forward.
"Teacher, we failed to protect the foundation you left behind, instead letting villains take advantage, we have indeed failed your trust, we are at fault!"
With that, the elder bowed low, and everyone followed him in saluting, except for Ouyang Xiaoman who stood nonchalantly beside Xue An.
This speaking elder was precisely the Grand Mountain Elder of Vast Righteous Academy, Shu Wenbin, who was also Xue An’s first disciple.
Shu Wenbin was honest by nature, with the gentlemanly demeanor typical of the Ancient Hua Country, so he deservedly became the academy’s Mountain Elder.
He did live up to expectations, managing the Vast Righteous Academy very well after Xue An’s departure.
Until Jing Haomiao entered this world, who, after figuring out his temperament, easily gained his trust, eventually bringing a catastrophe upon the entire academy.
So at this moment, Shu Wenbin was extremely ashamed, wishing he could die to atone for his sins.
Xue An naturally saw what was on his mind and couldn’t help but smile lightly, "Alright, the events have passed, don’t dwell on them anymore, and besides, you aren’t to blame for this, after all, you are a gentleman, and Jing Haomiao is a villain."
"Gentlemen are deceived openly, and Jing Haomiao exploited this point to toy with you all, learn from it in the future, after all... being a gentleman is good, but also understand the dangers of human nature, otherwise, you aren’t a gentleman but a fool."
"Yes! Disciple will heed your teachings!" Shu Wenbin earnestly bowed deeply.
At this moment, Ouyang Xiaoman curiously asked, "Master, where did you come from?"
Xue An gave a faint smile, "Me... naturally from the Multiverse."
Ouyang Xiaoman pouted, complaining, "Hmph, you are such an incompetent teacher, leaving halfway and then disappearing for so long."
Shu Wenbin’s face turned grim hearing this, "Xiao Man, do not be disrespectful to the teacher!"
But Xue An just smiled and waved his hand, signaling Shu Wenbin to stop speaking, then reached out to ruffle Ouyang Xiaoman’s hair.
"You’re right, I am indeed not very competent, but it couldn’t be helped, after all, I have many things to attend to."
"So, Master, have you finished attending to things this time? Will you leave again?" Ouyang Xiaoman asked with sparkling eyes, full of hope.
Xue An was silent for a moment, then gently shook his head, "Not yet."
At this, the light in Ouyang Xiaoman’s eyes dimmed.
