Lu Yin frowned. What was an Enlighter doing in East San Dios?
That place was only the Outerverse Youth Council, and it was of no value to an Enlighter. Lu Yin wasn't even there, so the only person of value in East San Dios was Liu Shaoge, as he was related to the Daynight clan.
Could it be the Daynight clan?
Lu Yin could not figure it out.
He ended the call, as there was no news from East San Dios. Liu Shaoge's whereabouts were unknown, but Lu Yin did not care too much.
In the past, Liu Shaoge had made Lu Yin apprehensive, and he had even wanted to kill him. But now, Liu Shaoge's level was too far from Lu Yin's. Even Bai Qian was not worthy of his attention, let alone Liu Shaoge.
Lu Yin had only asked because he was curious, but that was all.
There was a slight vibration as the spacecraft entered Earth's space station.
Lu Yin tapped his feet and disappeared from the spacecraft, avoiding the space station's detection. He landed on Earth and appeared in Jinlin City.
Earth had changed more and more, and there were more and more cultivators. Since this was Lu Yin's hometown and the starting point of his cultivation, there were many people traveling to Earth.
If not for Earth's small size, it would have been equivalent to another Zenyu Star. Naturally, the prices here were also very high. Fortunately, that was relative to outsiders, as the prices of Earth's locals were still the same.
Skyscrapers pierced through the clouds, and flying machines roamed the skies. Occasionally, cultivators would take to the skies, but they would be intercepted by patrolling troops. The entire Jinlin City seemed to be filled with technology.
No one would believe that only a dozen years had passed. Ten years ago, this place had been in ruins, and it had looked like the end of the world.
Lu Yin scanned the area with his domain and quickly found Zhou Shan.
There were only a few old friends on Earth. Bai Xue and the others had disappeared on Jupiter, so Lu Yin could only look for Zhou Shan and the others.
However, the gap between their realms had grown so large that it was almost invisible.
Zhou Shan was the honorary headmaster of Jinlin Military Academy, and his status was extremely high. He had also been one of the Seven Sages of China during Earth's apocalypse. Although he was weak and not even an Explorer, no one could shake his position because he was Lu Yin's friend.
In a spacious office with simple decorations, a middle-aged man was looking down at documents. On the wall behind him, there should be words or pictures hanging on it, but here, there was a battle-ax hanging, making the office more austere.
There was a knock on the door. "Come in."
A young woman walked in and respectfully said, "Principal, the students' seats have already been arranged. The ball organizers are giving our academy a lot of face, so the students will all sit in the middle and won't touch anyone else."
"Alright, that's good. Arrange for a few more teachers to lead the team. Nothing must happen to the students," the middle-aged man said.
The young woman acknowledged and retreated.
The middle-aged man continued to examine the documents, not raising his head from beginning to end.
"At first glance, you really do look like an academy principal. Speaking of which, aren't you the honorary principal?
Is there anything else you want to do? "
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. How could he not know that someone had come in?
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the person sitting on the sofa not far away. His expression was wild with joy. "You're back?"
"Principal Zhou, you're becoming more and more presentable." Lu Yin smiled as he crossed his legs leisurely.
Zhou Shan laughed, stood up, and stretched. "Dealing with these matters is even more troublesome than fighting on the battlefield." He then pointed at the battle axe on the wall. "Look, it's rusted."
Lu Yin smiled. "You won't have the chance to kill the enemy now. Your opponents will only be the students."
Zhou Shan smiled bitterly. "I might not even be able to beat the students."
This was the truth. Zhou Shan had never undergone systematic training, and some students might not necessarily lose to him. More and more people were coming to Earth to travel, and Zhou Shan's strength was nothing compared to them.
"But it's still alright. With your face, no one dares to do anything to me. Haha," Zhou Shan laughed.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open and a little girl in her teens walked in. "Dad, when is Yu Academy coming?
I must take the test, you can't stop me. "
Zhou Shan was embarrassed and quickly pulled her over. "Don't be rude. Come, say hello to Uncle Lu."
The little girl blinked in confusion and looked at Lu Yin. Her eyes lit up and her face flushed red. "Lu- Lu- Lu Yin?"
Lu Yin laughed.
Zhou Shan growled, "What Lu Yin? Don't be rude. Call him Uncle Lu."
The little girl looked at Zhou Shan excitedly. "Dad, you weren't bluffing. You really know Lu Yin."
"Call him Uncle Lu." Zhou Shan patted her head.
Lu Yin said, "What a cute little girl. You're called Xixi, right? I've seen you before."
The little girl was Zhou Shan's daughter, Zhou Xixi.
"You- you've seen me before?" Zhou Xixi was excited. Who didn't worship Lu Yin these days? This was especially true on Earth, where he was a god.
Lu Yin nodded and smiled. "Not only have I seen you, but I've even hugged you. I was the one who gave you your formcast model."
Zhou Xixi was so excited that she didn't know what to say.
Zhou Shan smiled bitterly. "You're just a little girl who doesn't know the rules."
Lu Yin laughed. "I didn't expect you to grow so big in the blink of an eye. You'll be able to get married in a few years, haha."
Zhou Xixi immediately shouted, "I'm not getting married! I want to enter Yu Academy and step into the heavens!"
Zhou Shan felt a headache coming on.
Lu Yin leaned forward and looked at Zhou Xixi. "Why do you want to step into the heavens?"
Zhou Xixi clenched her fists. "I want to fight alongside you. You're alone every time we fight. It's too lonely."
Lu Yin was stunned. Lonely?
Zhou Shan fiercely twisted Zhou Xixi's ear. "Shut up. You're not allowed to talk about adult matters. Alright, you can leave now. I still have things to discuss with your Uncle Lu."
Zhou Xixi rolled her eyes. "Forget it. Do you think Uncle Lu cares about that?
It's just a sesame seed. "
Zhou Shan was speechless.
…
An hour later, Lu Yin walked out of Jinling Military Academy and laughed. Was he lonely?
Now that he thought about it, it was true. Most of the time, he had been fighting alone. The world of adults was complicated, but a child's world was pure and could see things more clearly. He hadn't expected that his situation would be pointed out by a child.
There was nothing he could do about it. Whatever he did, he had to bear the consequences. Loneliness was something he had to experience.
He thought of Ming Yan and raised his hand to activate his gadget. A majestic amount of rune lines flashed past the corner of his eye.
Lu Yin abruptly turned around and looked to his right. Since the school was still in session, there weren't many people around. Lu Yin immediately saw an old man walk past, and he stared at the old man. Those rune lines had definitely come from him.
Those rune lines belonged to an Enlighter at the very least. Earth had actually attracted an Enlighter?
Lu Yin retracted his aura and slowly followed behind the old man.
The old man didn't notice Lu Yin's presence and simply walked around Jinling Military Academy. As the students walked out in an orderly fashion, the old man silently followed behind them.
Lu Yin frowned. All of the students had left?
Shouldn't they be in school at this time?
As an Enlighter, the old man simply followed behind the group of students.
Lu Yin followed behind them at a leisurely pace.
The group of students quickly boarded a large flywheel under the school's arrangements. The army cleared a path for them as they headed towards the largest sports plaza in the city center of Jinling.
The old man followed them on the ground, and each step he took covered a kilometer. He walked very slowly, but it was as if he had staggered through space.
Lu Yin did the same, and no one on Earth noticed this.
Zhou Shan sat on the flywheel with his daughter, Zhou Xixi, beside him.
"Xixi, remember, don't tell anyone about Uncle Lu's appearance," Zhou Shan warned.
Zhou Xixi replied, "I know. He's not a child."
"Be more careful," Zhou Shan grumbled.
"Dad, why did Goddess Luo come to Earth to perform?
They probably can't pay her much, so she can't earn much. "
"Do you think they only want to earn money?
Earth's position in the universe is too special. This is your Uncle Lu's hometown, and everyone wants to settle down here to establish a relationship with him. Some want money, while others want fame. "
"That means this Goddess Luo is pretty smart."
Zhou Shan looked ahead with a complicated expression. Goddess Luo?
Goddess Luo? He had met her once before, and he knew about her relationship with Bai Xue. He also knew that she had feelings for Lu Yin. This woman wasn't here for fame, but rather because this was Lu Yin's hometown. She wanted to get closer to him.
In his eyes, Goddess Luo was a true goddess. She was resplendent, beautiful, and dazzling. Unfortunately, Lu Yin's status was too high, and he could find any woman he wanted. Zhou Shan wouldn't be able to see the results of his wait.
Goddess Luo was the most dazzling star in the Outerverse, and her performance would cause a sensation in any region, let alone Earth.
Earth was too small, and Jinling Stadium was so small that most people couldn't even buy a ticket. Those who could buy a ticket were either rich people from the Outerverse or had a special status. Half of the stadium was occupied by students from Jinling Military Academy, and since these students didn't collect tickets, this dance performance was destined to not make any money.
Goddess Luo had already performed this dance many times on Earth, and she was very persistent.
The old man followed the students to the stadium and easily entered.
Lu Yin looked at Goddess Luo's image in shock. Why had she come to Earth?
Why was she holding a dance performance?
Was there anyone on Earth who could afford tickets?
Was there a place for these people to watch?
Lu Yin knew that Goddess Luo's every performance in the Outerverse would attract at least a few hundred million people. Even in a place like Zenyu Star, where the rich were everywhere, her performance would still attract a few hundred thousand people. On Earth, there shouldn't be anyone who could afford a ticket to Goddess Luo's dance performance, but these students had actually managed to enter.
Lu Yin easily entered the stadium and stared at the old man the entire time.
On the other side, a young man was wearing a hat and sucking on a straw as he sauntered into the stadium. His eyes were glued to Luo Shen's enormous projection as he mumbled, "She's really beautiful. No wonder she's the Outerverse's most dazzling star. Dad, your son has brought you a beautiful daughter-in-law."
The stadium was packed, and the atmosphere reached its peak with Goddess Luo's appearance. Everyone was cheering.
Goddess Luo was a national idol, and her dance was enough to dazzle the heavens.
