Afterward, everyone walked out of the room to say their final goodbyes.

"We are very satisfied; the environment is very good," Ji Chenlin said.

"Xiao Yao, don't worry about us; go out and freely carve out a world of your own," Mother Liu Rong said.

"We will just do a little forging business here; it's quite good. Actually, the Lizardmen are not as terrifying as we imagined, and the air here is much fresher than in the city," Liu Rong said with a slight smile.

"Right, who knows, we might earn more money here than doing business among the humans!"

As the couple spoke, their eye sockets gradually turned red.

"Xiao Yao… just remember… to come see Grandma more often," Ji Yao's grandmother said with a kind smile.

"Mm! I will!" Ji Yao nodded.

Yan Miao held the latest mobile phone in her hand and walked to Yan Ze.

"Brother, they are really nice; they even put the latest mobile phone and game console in my room."

Her eyes were full of happiness.

But Yan Ze knew clearly that his sister was deliberately pretending to be happy so that he wouldn't worry.

In her heart, she was the one who least wanted to part.

"As long as you are happy, Brother is happy," Yan Ze said with a smile, touching her head.

A large part of the reason he worked hard, killed monsters, and leveled up was to let his sister live a good life.

"Rest assured, wait for Brother; I will definitely defeat them and bring you back to Blue Star." Yan Ze made his promise.

Liu Rong walked over, patted Xiao Miao on the shoulder, and said:

"Xiao Miao, from now on, just be our daughter; we will take care of you."

"Uncle and I both like daughters."

"Mm!" Yan Miao was full of joy.

She had no parents since she was young and also longed for family affection.

Afterward, Su Ming, Yan Ze, Jiang Yunqing, and Ji Yao turned and left.

At this moment, Yan Miao suddenly had tears in her eyes and shouted loudly:

"Brother, you will come back to see me, right!?"

Yan Ze stopped, his fists clenched, turned around, and said:

"If I can, I will come every single day!"

His eye sockets also turned red.

Everyone walked away quickly, and finally, they could no longer see their families.

Afterward, Su Ming looked toward Yan Ze, Ji Yao, Jiang Yunqing, and the others.

"Take this emblem; when you want to come back to see your families, use this to activate the teleportation," Su Ming said, giving the emblem Tuo Zhan had given him to Ji Yao.

"Alright, aren't you coming with us?" Yan Ze asked.

"Mm… I still have some matters to handle here," Su Ming said.

"Alright then, see you after the Newcomer Combat Tournament!" Yan Ze said.

That's right; he was also preparing to participate in the Newcomer Combat Tournament.

Even without a first-place result, there would be very generous rewards.

Afterward, Yan Ze, Ji Yao, Jiang Yunqing, and the others teleported away.

In the Lizardman city-state, only Su Ming and Tuo Zhan remained, walking side-by-side.

"Take me to see your father," Su Ming said.

In the final battle of the Ice Sea Corpse Nest dungeon, Tuo Zhan's father, Chieftain Tuo Gang, used his lifespan to activate skills to fight the Ten Thousand Fish Demon; he was a heroic figure.

If it weren't for him, Su Ming probably wouldn't have been able to kill the Ten Thousand Fish Demon BOSS.

Chieftain Tuo Gang was poisoned in the end, and Su Ming used the juice of the Ancient Snake Poison-Dispelling Gallbladder to detoxify him and save his life, but his lifespan was already running low.

If he didn't see this old friend this time, there might never be a chance to see him again in the future.

At the mention of his father, Tuo Zhan's expression immediately became somewhat solemn.

"Mm, come on; my father has been waiting for you for a long time."

The two walked all the way toward the Wuka Council Hall.

"This city-state was actually the territory of our Wuka clan a long time ago, but it was stripped of ownership after we were banished; now it can be considered returning to its original owner," Tuo Zhan said.

Deepening their path, the Lizardman warriors stationed on the road would bow respectfully when they saw Tuo Zhan.

Soon, the two walked quickly into the Wuka Ancestral Shrine in the deepest part.

This was a circular green pool, with green scale flowers floating on it—flowers unique to the Lizardman world, symbolizing the glory of those who died in battle.

The surroundings were pitch black, with only green-purple flames flickering, illuminating the place.

No one disturbed this place; it was a quiet land.

The white-haired former Clan Leader, Chieftain Tuo Gang, stood on the high platform in the very center of the pool.

"Father, I have brought Brother Slaughter Su Ming."

Tuo Zhan said.

Chieftain Tuo Gang was wearing a simple ancestral robe and turned around slowly; his weathered face had a few wrinkles.

Lizardman lifespan was not as long as humans' to begin with, and after sacrificing his lifespan to fight, it was conceivable that he had almost reached the limit of his lifespan.

Seeing Su Ming, he revealed a long-lost smile.

"Mm… Slaughter Su Ming, my friend."

Afterward, he waved his hand toward his son.

"Zhan'er, step back."

"I want to have a few words alone with our ally."

Tuo Zhan immediately bowed his head and said: "Yes!"

Although he was the clan leader now, he still dared not disobey his father's authority. ===== CHAPTER 590 =====
