Even Xu Lingjun couldn’t have imagined that this journey would bring about so many unexpected events.
Fortunately, it was all over.
And Xu Lingjun, having gained a large amount of Source Value, successfully beca the tenth Commander in Chief of the Great Xia Empire, about to assu the position soon...
Undoubtedly, he was the biggest beneficiary.
Two days later.
Xu Lingjun bid farewell to several old friends.
Although at the farewell, those classmates had rather strange expressions.
Their gaze constantly drifted between Gu Xi and Xu Lingjun, yet Xu Lingjun felt very at peace that night and bid farewell to Gu Xi calmly.
Gu Xi was also composed, after all, she had no idea what had happened that night.
Xu Lingjun, Han Yun City, Zhao Yang, and Liu Dong took a micro transport ship, leaving the Polar Star Battlefield...
They descended back onto Blue Star, returning to their ho.
Through the Star Ring, watching the infinitely clear sky below, with layers of floating white clouds, and the winding mountains like giant dragons beneath.
A sense of pride suddenly welled up in Xu Lingjun’s heart.
Hmm...
I have protected this beautiful world from invasion.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly felt that the position of Commander in Chief of the Qisha Military District was quite good.
At least, it would allow him to contribute to the protection of this world.
"I need to head directly to the Imperial Capital to report to Your Majesty about everything seen and heard on this journey."
Liu Dong proactively said, "Don’t worry, Commander Xu, I won’t ntion anything about your father-in-law... I will just follow the prior instructions from His Highness."
At this, he couldn’t help but smile wryly.
He was a person loyal only to Your Majesty, but based on his current words, he had undoubtedly sided with Han Yun City.
But after months of traveling together, sharing life and death...
A deep friendship had ford among them.
Even though public and private matters were distinguished, who could truly discern them?
Xu Lingjun earnestly said, "Thank you!"
Liu Dong replied, "It’s what I should do. If it weren’t for Commander Xu, none of us might have survived this journey."
Zhao Yang said as well, "I might stay in Biluo City. I’ve already submitted an application to the Academy... On this journey, I discovered many things I don’t understand, and as a scholar, I want to be closer to Academician Xu, to better listen to his teachings."
Xu Lingjun was speechless.
He felt that on this journey, Zhao Yang had begun to evolve from a friend into a fanboy.
"Actually, before the Qisha Military District is fully established, I might not return to the Polar Star Battlefield."
After Xu Lingjun said this, he added, "Of course, nothing is absolute. If the Polar Star Battlefield encounters warfare... I would definitely fulfill my duty without hesitation!"
He spoke softly, "Witnessing the cruelty of war firsthand, I realize how precious peace within the stars is. My father and fiancée both live in this world. Since I have the ability, I naturally want to do my part."
Han Yun City nodded in agreent.
He said, "Then we will part ways in Biluo City."
"Take care along the way!"
Zhao Yang earnestly replied.
Several hours later.
The transport ship landed at the space station in Biluo City, and sure enough, there were dedicated personnel to receive Zhao Yang.
Afterward, the three of them took a special car to the nearest Yuzhang City.
They would take a dedicated flying device from there back to the Imperial Capital... but Xu Lingjun expressed a desire to visit the Li Family.
Han Yun City and Liu Dong naturally had no objections.
So...
The two of them waited in Yuzhang City for a while, while Xu Lingjun went directly to the Li Family.
In this trip, Xu Lingjun indeed carried a sense of wanting to show off... To know, when he initially took on the position of Deputy Commander, the old lady of the Li Family’s attitude toward him improved considerably.
She even stated that as long he had enough military achievents, she’d allow Li Jingjun to marry him, without further interference.
I wonder how she’ll react now that his achievents were enough to promote him to Commander in Chief?
Would she tie Li Jingjun up and send her to my bed?
No, no...
But based on Xu Lingjun’s perception of this strict yet extrely old-fashioned old lady, once her standards are t, she can be quite open-minded.
Moreover, the big cat also needs to be brought back.
Thinking of all this, Xu Lingjun couldn’t help but feel absurd...
A Profound Realm level Companion Demon Beast, with such mighty strength, truly invaluable.
At that ti, it was precisely because of this Demon Beast that he ford a bond with Gu Xi.
Unexpectedly, his progress was so fast that the extrely powerful Daxiong had signs of evolving into a mascot.
It’s simply...
"ow~~~!!"
"Hahaha, faster, Daxiong, co on, sis will treat you to so fish snacks tonight!"
"ow."
"ow ow ow, ow ow ow..."
Just as Xu Lingjun stepped through the gates of the Li Mansion, he saw a white figure darting across the steep mountainous terrain, as swift as lightning.
Xu Lingjun saw it clearly.
Wasn’t it Daxiong, carrying soone on its back, with a terrified orange cat scrunched up in front, yowling in fear...
The two beasts and the human were clearly having imnse fun.
Xu Lingjun: "..............."
This truly has beco a mascot.
Moreover... Xu Lingjun hadn’t expected that soone who seed clever but was quite bumbling, yet had a high opinion of themselves, would have such a childlike side.
"ow."
At that mont, Daxiong obviously noticed the arrival of its true master.
Suddenly it made a quick turn in the air... and many thoughts flashed through Xu Lingjun’s mind in an instant. Even if it’s a Profound Stage Demon Beast, I can definitely pin Daxiong with a re push, rendering it immobile.
Indeed, this journey has greatly enhanced my abilities.
No, it’s more accurate to say that this silly cat acts cute anywhere and doesn’t train itself much, so its abilities have stagnated. At least compared to its parents, theoretically, it’s much weaker.
At this mont.
Li Pingting was already dumbfounded, sitting atop Daxiong’s back as it halted in front of Xu Lingjun, with a string of fish snacks in her hand...
Facing Xu Lingjun directly.
As an elder, yet in such a state.
She blinked, cleared her throat gently, and casually tossed aside the fish snacks.
Daxiong leapt forth, caught the fish snacks, then mumbled a ow, snuggled up to Xu Lingjun’s feet, rubbed happily, and attempted to shove the fish snacks into Xu Lingjun’s hand.
Xu Lingjun was speechless on the spot.
And Li Pingting gently cleared her throat, tidying her previously playfully tousled hair.
She said, "Why are you here?"
"I’m here to see the old lady and take Daxiong back with ."
Xu Lingjun stroked Daxiong’s smooth fur, quietly contemplating where to properly train it.
Right...
Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion!
Luckily, let it accompany the little girl Jun Qing. I promised Gu Xi to take care of her well... and ended up fleeing, leaving the young girl alone at Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, which is quite pitiful.
It’s just right to leave Daxiong with her, so the two little ones can train together.
Li Pingting’s eyes scanned Xu Lingjun from head to toe... then let out an "oh"...
She turned and started walking back.
But once she turned around, her face flushed instantly red.
Damn it...
The fists clenched so tightly that the knuckles were almost crushed. Damn it, this ti all my maturity and elder dignity are gone.
