"Boy, the battle is over, and the Shenyu Mountains are completely destroyed. Let's go back to Xingchen Academy first!"

In the silence, the Star Ancestor spoke, breaking the dull atmosphere.

Lu Ming nodded: "Okay!"

Afterwards, he said to Lu Tuntian: "Tuntian, thank you for your help. Now that the trouble has been solved, you can go back and practice!"

"Okay, father. If you have any problems that you can't solve, call me anytime!" After saying that, Lu Tuntian's figure gradually faded away and turned into a ray of light and returned to the alien space.

Lu Ming and Star Ancestor flew towards the teachers and students of the academy not far away.

When the teachers and students of Xingchen Academy saw them return, they all surrounded them.

"Ancestor, Senior Brother Lu Ming, we're so glad you're all okay!" a student said excitedly.

"Thanks to Lu Ming and Lu Tuntian, we were able to escape danger this time." A teacher said with emotion.

Lu Ming smiled and said, "I hope everyone is okay."

The Star Patriarch cleared his throat and said, "Okay, we shouldn't stay here for long. Let's go back to the academy first."

Everyone nodded and flew towards the Star Academy under the leadership of the Star Ancestor.

Along the way, the teachers and students sat on the magic flying boat, watching Lu Ming and Xingchen Patriarch from afar, not daring to speak. The two stood at the front, looking at the scenery along the way, and talked happily.

Star Patriarch's eyes were filled with curiosity and inquiry, and he asked, "My dear friend Lu Ming, with your strength, you are truly an amazing talent. I am really curious, why did you choose to join our Star Academy?"

Lu Ming smiled frankly, with a bit of freedom and uninhibitedness in his smile, and said: "Ancestor, to be honest, I originally ascended from a small world by accident. When I first arrived here, everything was unfamiliar to me, but Xingchen Academy gave me an inexplicable sense of familiarity, so I stayed here."

The Star Ancestor frowned slightly, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he obviously didn't believe this simple reason.

But when he looked at Lu Ming again, he saw that Lu Ming's expression was firm and sincere, without any sign of lying.

The Star Patriarch sighed softly and said, "Forget it, everyone has their own secrets, and I will not ask any more questions. But no matter what your origins are, you were able to stand up in a critical moment and help my Star Academy survive this disaster. This kindness will be remembered in my heart."

Lu Ming smiled and replied, "Grandmaster, you are too kind. During my time in the academy, I have been taken care of by everyone. It is only natural for me to help you."

Then, Xingchen Patriarch asked again: "What are your plans next?"

A hint of determination flashed in Lu Ming's eyes, and he slowly said, "Ancestor, I have had a very happy time in Xingchen Academy. But now my identity has been exposed. If I continue to stay, I am afraid it will bring a lot of trouble to the academy, so I plan to leave."

When Xingchen Patriarch heard this, a complicated expression flashed across his face.

He opened his mouth, as if wanting to persuade Lu Ming to stay, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

After a moment of silence, the Starry Ancestor said, "Lu Ming, I expected you to have this idea. You are still young and your future is full of possibilities. With your talent and strength, it may be difficult for the Starry Academy to keep you. I only hope that everything will go smoothly on your future path of cultivation and that you can achieve your wish as soon as possible."

Lu Ming clasped his fists and bowed, saying solemnly: "Thank you for your blessing and understanding. I will remember this kindness in my heart. If the academy needs me in the future, I will not refuse."

Finally, Star Patriarch smiled and blessed Lu Ming, and sincerely invited him: "My dear Lu Ming, I hope you will have a smooth journey in the future. If there is a chance, you are always welcome to return to the academy."

Lu Ming readily agreed, then left his contact information with Star Patriarch, said goodbye to the teachers and students and left.

The moment Lu Ming turned around, the teachers and students of Xingchen Academy all stared at his back silently.

Some people were filled with emotion, some were reluctant to let go, but everyone knew that Lu Ming's future would definitely be even brighter.

Lu Ming walked farther and farther away, and his figure finally disappeared from everyone's sight.

……

After separating from the teachers and students of Xingchen Academy, Lu Ming flew towards the Divine Beast Forest.

After traveling for so long, his level of necromancer has reached the early stage of middle god, and his four original clones have also broken through to the realm of lower god. His magic cultivation realm is the early stage of fusion, so Lu Ming plans to return to the village to see the living conditions of the villagers and the situation of Wood's clone.

At the same time, Lu Tuntian's realm has now broken through to the Mahayana stage, which makes Lu Ming want to return to the village and practice in seclusion to break through to the Mahayana realm as soon as possible.

Lu Ming traveled at lightning speed without stopping for a moment. In just half a day, he successfully crossed the Forest of Divine Beasts and returned to the village.

When his feet stepped on this familiar land again, he felt an indescribable sense of familiarity in his heart.

The village is still quiet and peaceful, with smoke rising slowly from the kitchen and the laughter of children echoing in the ears.

At this moment, the Tree of Life at the entrance of the village keenly sensed Lu Ming's breath, and its branches and leaves began to tremble, as if warmly welcoming Lu Ming's return.

The Wood Origin clone sitting cross-legged under the tree also slowly opened his eyes.

What surprised Lu Ming was that after not seeing each other for a long time, the Wood Origin Avatar had reached the lower god level by virtue of his understanding of the power of the rules of the Tree of Life.

"My Lord!" The clone of Wood smiled slightly and greeted Lu Ming.

Lu Ming nodded slightly and said with admiration: "I never thought that your cultivation progress was so fast. After a long separation, you have already broken through to the lower god realm."

The Wood Clone explained: "Everything should be thankful to the Tree of Life. Every once in a while, it grants me some of the Lord's power to help me comprehend the rules."

Hearing this, Lu Ming reached out and gently stroked a branch of the Tree of Life, and sincerely thanked him, "Thank you very much!"

The Tree of Life released a faint consciousness and responded, "You're welcome!"

At this moment, the four origin clones in Lu Ming's Dantian also came out, surrounded the origin of wood, sat cross-legged under the Tree of Life, and started talking to each other.

Lu Ming smiled, ignored these clones, and walked towards the village alone.

An old man with gray hair saw Lu Ming, his eyes full of surprise. He quickly put down the hoe in his hand, walked over with a staggering gait, and said excitedly: "Lu Ming, you are finally back! How have you been outside these days?"

Lu Ming hurried forward to support the old man, and replied with a smile on his face: "Uncle, everything is going well outside. I'm sorry to have worried you."

At this time, a group of children also gathered around and asked in a chattering voice: "Brother Lu Ming, is the world outside particularly exciting? Have you encountered any powerful monsters?"

Lu Ming squatted down, gently touched the children's heads, and said with a smile: "The world outside is indeed wonderful, but it is also full of dangers. But I am not afraid at all, and I have successfully dealt with it."

A middle-aged woman came out of the house and saw Lu Ming. Her face was filled with joy. "Lu Ming, come over to my house and have a seat. Try the snacks I just made."

The villagers chatted with each other, asking with concern about Lu Ming's experiences outside.

Lu Ming patiently answered everyone's questions one by one and shared some interesting experiences with everyone.

In this warm and harmonious atmosphere of communication, Lu Ming deeply felt the rich and profound friendship of the villagers, and his heart was filled with warmth.

To celebrate Lu Ming's return, the village chief took a few strong men with him to the Forest of Divine Beasts and captured a few divine beasts.

As night falls, the sky is filled with stars and the soft moonlight shines on the village.

The breeze blew gently, bringing the fragrance of grass and wild flowers from the fields.

After plucking, skinning and cleaning these mythical beasts, they started roasting them over a bonfire.

The bonfire was burning, reflecting the excited faces of the people. The jumping flames were like happy elves dancing in the night sky.

The meat of the divine beast sizzled under the roasting flames, emitting an enticing aroma.

The grease kept dripping, splashing tiny sparks, like bright meteors in the night sky.

The village chief personally took charge, skillfully turning the barbecue, ensuring that every part was cooked to perfection. While busy, he smiled and said to Lu Ming: "Lu Ming, this is a rare delicacy in our village, you must eat more today!"

A sturdy man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said excitedly: "Brother Lu Ming, we have been looking forward to your return when you were away!"

Another strong man echoed, "That's right, the village is much more lively now that you're back!"

Several children came over and chattered, "Brother Lu Ming, tell us about the latest news outside!"

The women were preparing tableware and seasonings, and said as they worked, "Lu Ming, please stay a little longer this time."

Lu Ming smiled and responded to everyone: "Okay, I will definitely spend more time with you. Although the outside world is exciting, our village still makes people feel at ease."

An old man sat nearby, smoking a pipe, and said slowly, "Lu Ming, you have great potential. You are the pride of our village!"

Everyone was talking and laughing. The children were jumping around the bonfire, their laughter echoing in the night sky.

Their figures looked like lively silhouettes in the light of the fire.

The barbecue was finally done, and the village chief handed the first piece to Lu Ming: "Come, Lu Ming, try it!"

Lu Ming took it and took a bite. The aroma filled the air. Everyone began to enjoy the delicious barbecue, and the celebratory atmosphere reached a climax.

While eating meat and drinking wine, Lu Ming also paid attention to the recent situation of the village.

Lu Ming swallowed the meat in his mouth, took a sip of wine, and asked, "Is everything going well in the village recently?"

Later, a villager said that a few days after Lu Ming left, a group of people came to the vicinity of the village. It seemed that those people were from the same force as the enemies that Lu Ming had killed before, and they must have come here to investigate clues about the death of their tribesmen.

The villager frowned and recalled: "We were really nervous at the time. Those people looked ferocious."

Another villager went on to say, "Due to the protection of the magic array, these people did not discover the village immediately, and no one wanted to pay attention to them, but these people did not give up and launched attacks on the surroundings, which triggered the magic array."

"That's right!" Another villager interrupted, "Those guys really overestimated their own abilities. Once the magic array was triggered, they were dumbfounded."

The villager from before continued, “Later, there was really no other way, so we used the power of the magic array to kill them all.”

Lu Ming listened, frowned slightly, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "It seems that they will not give up, everyone should be more careful in the future."

The village chief patted Lu Ming on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Lu Ming. We have the magic array here, so we are not easy to bully."

Everyone nodded and continued to eat and drink, creating a happy scene.

The next morning, when the sun came out, the golden sunlight gently sprinkled on every corner of the village. The birds sang happily, as if cheering for the new day. Then everyone dispersed and started a new day's work with satisfaction and joy.

Under the arrangement of the village chief, a separate room was prepared for Lu Ming.

The room was very simple, just like other villagers, a thatched hut with a wooden bed and simple furniture.
