Chapter 1744: Lord Shuangmian Arrives! A Life-Saving Trump Card!
"The Soul Tower has been repaired, and four Immortal-stage demons have also been enslaved.
Next, it's time to return to Blue Star as well."
Xu Jingming made up his mind, pondering briefly.
He then sent a message to Ye Li through the virtual universe:
"Senior Sister, I'm preparing to return to Blue Star; you should make preparations on your end too."
He had been back at the academy for several days now.
Lin Qianxue was cultivating inside a secret realm.
She couldn't get away for the moment, unable to come over.
Yue Ying had come a few times, but each time she couldn't stay long.
She was called back to cultivate by Lord Lin Ge.
"Lin Ge!"
The moment he thought of Lord Lin Ge, Xu Jingming felt vexed through and through.
This old woman clearly knew Yue Ying had come running to see him.
Yet she insisted on making Yue Ying go back, blatantly coming to ruin their intimate moments.
"A mere Supreme Lord; sooner or later I'll make you know my prowess!"
Xu Jingming thought viciously in his heart.
During this period, he had also tested his own strength in the virtual universe.
If he used the Chaos Pearl, it would be enough to suppress a First Tribulation Lord!
In other words, he already possessed Lord-stage combat power.
He believed reaching Supreme Lord-stage combat power wouldn't take too long either.
"Thinking of your Yue Ying again?"
Weila exposed his thoughts with a grin, then waved her little fist and said:
"But that woman Lord Lin Ge is too detestable.
Wait until you break through to the Supreme Lord stage.
You must take her down, then brutally humiliate her!
Make her go ooh-ooh-ooh, and thoroughly experience your prowess!
Or hand her to me to train first; I guarantee I'll return you an obedient one!"
The former Lord of Charm and Desire had now completely lain flat.
She had thoroughly degenerated into Xu Jingming's lackey.
No choice.
Over these years following Xu Jingming, she had already thoroughly witnessed the other party's terrifying talent.
Leveling up was as simple as eating, drinking, and water.
Damn it, in the blink of an eye he already possessed the strength of a First Tribulation Lord.
This couldn't help but make her feel that following Xu Jingming seemed to hold more prospects.
Plus, with the existence of the Heart-Eroding Pattern, she couldn't betray him either.
So she could only choose to lie flat.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingming instantly felt black lines all over his head.
This Weila...
One can only say, as expected of a succubus, her problem-solving approach is simply unconventional.
"Jingming."
Suddenly, a cold, clear voice rang out in his mind.
"Master Shuangmian?"
Xu Jingming's expression froze for a moment.
Immediately after, he discovered the space before him rippling.
Immediately following, a graceful figure in ice-blue walked out slowly.
Cold air spread along with her, yet quietly dissipated the moment it touched Xu Jingming.
It was precisely Lord Shuangmian.
"Master, how did you come here?" Xu Jingming saluted respectfully.
"It's a matter of the Judgment Court."
Lord Shuangmian's ice-blue eyes fell upon him:
"The Yan Alliance Judgment Court's review has passed; it will officially open in seven days.
This matter is being handled by me and Venerable Xiyue; you and Ye Li need not attend."
"Disciple understands." Xu Jingming nodded.
At the level of games between Lords and Venerables, he and Ye Li going would instead easily become the focus, even a weakness.
"I'll notify you once there's a result from the Judgment Court.
However, what do you plan to do next? Will you continue staying at the academy?"
Lord Shuangmian asked.
She knew this disciple of hers had a temperament that never stayed idle.
"Disciple is preparing to make a trip back to Blue Star."
Xu Jingming spoke truthfully, "Some matters need to be handled, and I've been away from home for quite a while—it's time to go back and take a look."
"Return to Blue Star?"
Frost Crown Sovereign furrowed her brows slightly, "Your reputation has grown immensely now, and the alien races watching you are not few.
Even within human territory, it is not absolutely safe."
She pondered briefly, then flipped her jade hand.
An ice-blue token the size of a palm appeared in her palm.
The token was neither metal nor jade, feeling icy cold to the touch.
Its surface bore intricate frost-flower patterns, and at its center, a single ice crystal seemed to rotate slowly as if alive.
"This is my Divine Realm coordinate token."
Frost Crown Sovereign handed the token to Xu Jingming, "If you encounter an unavoidable danger, simply crush it.
I can then instantly activate the Divine Realm teleportation to rush to your aid."
"Thank you, Master!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingming's eyes lit up instantly, and he received the token with both hands.
This is quite a fine thing!
It's like gaining an extra life-saving trump card!
"Moreover," Frost Crown Sovereign continued, "for your return to Blue Star this time, I will also send you via my Divine Realm teleportation.
I have left a coordinate token in the Noah Empire; I will first teleport you there.
You can then return to Blue Star on your own, saving considerable time.
It will also reduce the risk."
"Thank you, Master!"
Xu Jingming felt a sudden joy, then immediately thought of Night Ling:
"By the way, Master, Night Ling senior sister said she wishes to go to Blue Star with me.
Moreover, her condition seems somewhat off......"
Xu Jingming somewhat hesitantly described Night Ling's behavior that day in full.
"Oh? There's such a situation?"
Frost Crown Sovereign also seemed somewhat surprised, pondered briefly, then spoke:
"It's likely that the stimulation you gave her in the dream was too great, causing some change in her personality.
After some time, it should improve.
However, during the time she has followed you,
if she has any requests, you should do your best to fulfill them."
The scene of Xu Jingming holding Night Ling before the window......
Even if it were her coming, she would likely still receive unprecedented stimulation.
Let alone this disciple of hers.
A change in mental state can also be considered normal.
"Do my best to fulfill the senior sister's requests? I understand."
Xu Jingming also understood his master's meaning, and unconsciously nodded slightly.
Indeed, at this stage, we should still focus on soothing.
"Alright, when you're ready, come to my Divine Hall.
I will perform the Divine Realm teleportation for you."
Frost Crown Sovereign gave one instruction.
That graceful, moving figure then dissolved into ice-blue light points and scattered.
"Tsk tsk, this master of yours is truly good to you~"
Wei La floated out again, her purple eyes full of envy:
"She gave you the coordinate token—this is a life-saving trump card of a Sovereign-level being!"
"Indeed."
Xu Jingming rubbed the token, a smile rising at the corners of his mouth:
"So, from now on, I must repay well—can't keep letting the master worry all the time."
A drop of kindness should be repaid with a gushing spring.
He would never let any of his masters down.
After spending some more time organizing all the resources to bring back to Blue Star,
and confirming nothing was missing, Xu Jingming sent Night Ling a message via the virtual universe:
"Senior sister, I am preparing to go to my master's place for the Divine Realm teleportation."
After receiving the reply, he set off for the Frost Crown Divine Hall.
Lin Qianxue was still cultivating in the secret realm and could not free herself.
Yue Ying was also being watched closely by the Ice Song Sovereign and could not come.
This return to Blue Star, he is alone—if we ignore that certain succubus little loli.
Soon, he arrived at the summit of Heaven Peak Mountain.
Stepping into the Frost Crown Divine Hall, a chill cold air rushed toward him.
In the center of the hall, Frost Crown Sovereign wore an ice-blue long robe that swept the ground.
A faint cold mist swirled around her, her exquisite features cold as the moon.
Beside her, a tall and graceful figure stood silently—it was Ye Li.
Xu Jingming's gaze fell upon her, and he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Today, Ye Li was not wearing her signature black combat attire.
Instead, she had changed into a simple casual outfit.
The pure white short-sleeved T-shirt was loose yet still flattering.
The dark blue denim shorts revealed her snow-white, slender legs without reservation.
Her black long hair was casually tied into a high ponytail.
She had lost some of her usual cold and stern aura, gaining a touch of carefree ease.
