Chapter 459 Returning in Glory
On the golden bridge, all the returning warriors felt as if they were standing on solid ground, without any discomfort. In fact, they were all enveloped in golden light, making them exceptionally dazzling. "It has to be Lao Lu. I feel no difference from being on the ground. If you didn't tell me, who would know that this is formed from spiritual power? I really don't know when I can be like Lao Lu."
Fang Ping remarked with emotion on the Golden Bridge. Lu Hao smiled but didn't say much. Achieving this wasn't difficult; all one needed was a mental strength exceeding 50,000 Hz. The others marched forward with their heads held high, knowing their relatives and friends were watching. This might be their only moment of glory in their lives, so they couldn't afford any misbehavior. "So many powerful individuals!"
"They can all fly! And what is that golden bridge of light? That's incredible! Several thousand people flying together!"
"Invincible in Magic and Martial Arts!"
"Where did the Magic Martial Arts Academy go to fight? Judging from their appearance, their opponents this time are not to be underestimated, otherwise they wouldn't have sent so many warriors."
The entire city of Shanghai was abuzz with discussion. Everyone was debating the reasons behind the high-profile launch of the Magic Martial Arts Academy and the power it had displayed. Meanwhile, Shanghai's television station, and indeed television stations throughout China, were broadcasting the scene live. Anyone watching on TV could see thousands of Shanghai residents soaring through the air. "That's my son! My son! He can fly too! He's a hero!"
Some parents pointed at the martial artists in the sky and shouted excitedly.
"That brat told me he was in seclusion at Magic Martial Arts Academy, but he went off to fight a cult... Just wait until I get back, I'll teach him a lesson."
Although he was shouting that, he couldn't hide the big smile on his face as he shouted loudly, as if he wanted everyone present to know that it was his son!
His son is a hero, a hero who returned from fighting against a cult!
Countless people watched with joy and astonishment on television. They never imagined that their child would be such a strong person. They spread the news to each other, just so that everyone would know.
Several thousand martial artists circled in the air, making countless loops around the city of Demon Capital.
No one below showed any impatience. Although ordinary people didn't know about the underground caves, they knew this was a great victory and a triumphant return. They all looked up at the warriors in the sky. Some warriors who knew the truth were secretly shedding tears. There were fewer people among the flying warriors; these people had all died in the underground caves. On July 30th, the teachers and students of Magic Martial Arts University returned with great momentum, and the entire Magic Martial Arts University was in a joyful atmosphere. The outside world was shocked by the feat of thousands of Magic Martial Arts University warriors flying through the air. The talk of the town was all about this big event in Magic City.
The celebrations didn't last long. On August 3rd, a proper burial was held for the fallen heroes. All the heroes who died in this battle were buried in the Southern District of Magic Martial Arts.
Instead of presiding over the burial, Lu Hao went alone to a cemetery in the southern district to talk to his brother about the past. The vow that young man made back then has finally been fulfilled. It's not far from bringing peace to the Three Realms, and then there will be no more wars.
"Why didn't you go to the funeral service?"
A voice rang out from the side, which didn't surprise Lu Hao. He had sensed Wu Kuishan's arrival with his spiritual power: "Why are you out here too, old man?"
Lu Hao did not answer Wu Kuishan's question, but instead asked a question in return.
"Listening to their cries inside was so painful. Before pacifying the underground city of Shanghai, I always had this goal. Now that it's been pacified, I feel a bit lost and don't know what to do next."
Wu Kuishan said calmly.
Lu Hao said with a smile, "We've only pacified one of the Demon City dungeons so far, and there are still 107 outer domains and the central core restricted area. We can start feeling lost when we've pacified the dungeons. Now is not the time for us to stop."
"Yes, we only pacified one underground city in Shanghai, and that was with you. So many people died; if it weren't for you—"
I understand the old headmaster's mindset more and more now. In the sixty years of Magic Martial Arts Academy, he's seen batch after batch of students leave. There's no greater sorrow than a broken heart. Anyway, let's not talk about that. Afterwards, Huang Jing and I are preparing to guard the Magic City Underground Cave. We can also manage the resources there. What are your plans?"
Wu Kuishan asked, after all, Lu Hao is now considered to be at the top of humanity. Every top expert has a great responsibility. For example, Zhang Tao seems to be doing nothing all day, but he is responsible for coordinating the affairs of the Three Prefectures and Four Departments and paying attention to the underground caves in various parts of China. Li Zhen is guarding Yuhai Mountain, ready to go to the underground caves to provide support at any time. The twelve ancestors of Zhenxing City are also guarding the passage of Yuhai Mountain to prevent the forbidden zone from entering the outer domain.
"Me? As you know, I follow the path of slaughter. I'll rest for two days at the Magic Martial Arts Academy, and then I'll probably enter the Demon Capital Underground Cave and then the Forbidden Sea. After all, killing monsters there won't cause much of a commotion; all the noise will be concealed by the Forbidden Sea water."
Lu Hao thought for a moment and then said.
Wu Kuishan exclaimed, "Your path of slaughter is much easier than ours. You can become stronger simply by killing. You're practically a chosen one!"
"The chosen one? The chosen one won't grow stronger step by step like I have, through a lot of hardship."
Lu Hao said, "After all, the true chosen one is Qin Fengqing. That guy was alright in the early stages, but fell behind everyone in the middle stages. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up with Fang Ping, who was a cheat. But after coming into contact with the seed, he took off. In the end, his combat power jumped to the Emperor level, catching up with those old relics. Only Fang Ping could compare to him. No one else could compare to him at all. That's what you call cheating. Unlike Lu Hao, who had to kill enemies to improve step by step."
"The funeral is over. Please come over; we have some things to discuss."
Just then, Zhang Tao's voice suddenly reached my ears.
"Let's go, I guess there's some kind of plan."
When Lu Hao and Wu Kuishan returned to the Magic Martial Arts Academy's council hall, they sensed something was amiss. Lu Hao almost burst out laughing when he saw Nan Yunyue glaring angrily at Li Changsheng and Huang Jing. Li Changsheng sat in a corner, his face dark with rage, while Huang Jing trembled with fear. In the few days since the students and teachers returned, female grandmasters had been visiting Magic Martial Arts Academy every now and then, all for Li Changsheng. Li Changsheng, of course, had no such intentions and could only explain himself again and again, almost getting torn apart by the visiting female grandmasters.
Everything else was fine, but the key issue was that Nan Yunyue's sister had come specifically to meet her. The two of them almost killed Li Changsheng when they met. Li Changsheng was truly wronged; he had only gone down into the underground cave, and when he came back, everyone was looking for his female grandmaster.
