Chapter 164: Going Home (Part 3) “From Li Yixiao’s distress, +888!”

“From Nie Ting’s distress, +77!”

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +9!”

“From Zhong Yutang’s distress…”

“From…”

Within the massive distress points, the three heavenly kings were the most noticeable. This must have been due to losing the relic but the amount Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin had contributed was much lesser than Li Yixiao. Lu Shu wasn’t sure the reason why.

Could it be a difference in their cultivation? Or were the two of them not as concerned about the relic?

Honestly, as Lu Shu looked at the record of the distress points Li Yixiao had contributed, and turning back to look at the depressed look of Li Yixiao atop the mountain, he felt a sense of happiness…

At this point in time, the distress points Lu Shu had amassed had broken through 80k. The distance from lighting up the sixth star was only 80k more.

During this trip to the remains, distress points were one of his greatest harvests. Lu Shu didn’t expect this…

Lu Shu wanted to get home quickly. Besides to investigate the powers of the seal of lands, the most important thing was to see Lu Xiaoyu.

Thinking till this point, Lu Shu hugged the green fruits he had picked inside the remains.

Although the spears were taken away, the fruits and the little squirrel weren’t. Lu Shu found this surprising.

After the heavenly network had announced that the Luo Cheng students could make their own way back home and that arrangements were made for the other students, Lu Shu immediately made his way down the mountain.

Jiang Shuyi followed behind Lu Shu, “Did you meet with any danger down there?”

Lu Shu waved his hand, “Nope nope, I was just following behind everyone else and minding my own business. Anything else we can talk during class next week!”

It should be Wednesday today and the daoyuan teachers had notified everyone that they could rest till next Monday before reporting back for daoyuan class.

The students needed to rest after this huge battle and the heavenly network would have to start dealing with the complaints from parents.

With regards to the daoyuan class’ future, no one could be sure.

Outside the cordoned-off area, all the parents would ask the students coming out, “Have you seen my child, he’s from so and so city’s daoyuan class, name’s so and so…”

All the parents had a look of anxiousness and Lu Shu had been questioned a few dozen times on his way down the mountain and his reply was always ‘I don’t know such a person’.

The sight of these parents made Lu Shu feel pity for them. But whether they received good or bad news, he would never know.

Actually, Lu Shu really liked the freedom of having no restraints. The other daoyuan students would probably have to face naggings from their parents and might not even have the choice of whether or not they could continue taking the daoyuan class.

Based on Lu Shu’s previous conjecture, many parents would want a withdrawal. To them, although they had hopes for their child to be successful, the expense of risking their children’s lives would lead to them choosing for their children to lead a normal life.

Only when something had happened did the parents understand that the road of training wasn’t an easy one.

Although Lu Shu liked his freedom, the sight of all these parents looking forward to their children’s return made him slightly emotional. Who knew where his parents had gone.

While Lu Shu was feeling a bit depressed, he had reached the waist of the mountain and he suddenly saw Lu Xiaoyu sitting atop a tree branch shaking her little legs.

Lu Xiaoyu’s first reaction at seeing Lu Shu was to jump off the tree branch and ran to him, pinching and pulling to see if he was hurt. But she found no injuries and was finally at ease.
