Going Home!

Star Realm, above a massive crater.

Several figures hovered ten thousand meters away, their eyes fixed on the Rank 3 World Gate.

Suddenly, the void trembled.

A nebula with a diameter of a hundred meters began to rotate counterclockwise, its area constantly shrinking.

The rotation speed increased, and the nebula rapidly contracted.

In the blink of an eye, it had turned into a tiny dot, its starlight flashing and disappearing.

The void smoothed out, leaving nothing in its place. The Rank 3 World Gate had completely vanished.

"Whew! It's finally over!"

Xiang Wuji exhaled deeply, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

The other members of the Limitless Squad also breathed a sigh of relief, their expressions relaxing.

"Senior."

Li Qingshan stared at the spot where the World Gate had disappeared, his gaze deep.

"Does an Antimatter Bomb really have the power to destroy a planet?"

"Of course!" Xiang Wuji nodded without hesitation, affirming:

"Shattering the planet is the only way to 'close the door'!"

"Now that the World Gate is gone, the Cat-Ear Clan planet behind the gate is definitely finished!"

"Alright!"

Li Qingshan sighed and retracted his gaze.

"Senior, I'll take my leave first, so as not to keep the Dean and the others waiting."

As he spoke, a bolt of purple lightning shot into the sky, heading west at high speed.

The lightning flashed repeatedly, reaching a thousand miles away in the blink of an eye.

"That's more than just taking a 'step' ahead!"

Xiang Wuji clicked his tongue inwardly, then looked at his teammates.

"Did you guys notice that Junior seemed a little down after the World Gate closed?"

"He did a bit." The others nodded in agreement, guessing:

"After all, we closed the door by shattering a planet. Junior might be feeling bad about the destruction of a living planet, right?"

"Is that so?"

Xiang Wuji looked down at the battlefield below, a desolate scene with thick black ash covering the ground.

How many Cat-Ear Clan people did it take to get to this point?

Li Qingshan feeling bad about shattering a planet?

The purple lightning sped through the sky, crossing mountains and lakes.

Li Qingshan had no interest in admiring the Star Realm's landscape. His gaze was fixed on the panel, which remained silent.

Completely silent!

Ordinary alien races didn't count as monsters, but since the Cat-Ear Clan was colluding with the Celestial Fox Clan, there must have been other Celestial Foxes on the planet.

With the power of an Antimatter Bomb, even if there were high-level Celestial Foxes, it was impossible for them all to escape!

"It really doesn't add any experience at all!"

Li Qingshan sighed suddenly, his gaze falling on the panel.

Martial Dao Panel! Martial Dao Space!

Looking at the words "Martial Dao," he couldn't help but recall his past attempt to bring a laser gun into the space.

A broadsword was a weapon, and a laser gun was also a weapon, but the Martial Dao Space only recognized the broadsword.

Killing monsters with a sword was a personal kill.

The Antimatter Bomb from before, he had also personally thrown it.

However, the panel didn't recognize the latter.

"Martial Dao, it's all about intent."

Li Qingshan murmured, seemingly enlightened.

This attempt had given him a deeper understanding of the panel.

His path would ultimately lie in martial arts combat.

Not sitting in the rear, pressing a button, and deciding victory from hundreds of millions of miles away.

The lightning sped along, soon reaching the ruins of the human camp.

Li Qingshan's feet landed, stepping through the World Gate.

Lu Qing had been waiting outside the World Gate, her expression anxious as she said, "Junior, did it succeed?"

Li Qingshan smiled and nodded, "It's done."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Lu Qing jumped up and down on the spot, incoherent with excitement.

After her mood calmed down slightly, She suddenly turned to face Li Qingshan, her eyes glistening, and said, "Junior, thank you."

"Senior..."

Li Qingshan shook his head, looked down at his feet, and smiled complexly.

"Ziying Star is my home now too."

Ziying Star, distant orbit.

Giant starships floated alone, orbiting the planet.

Dozens of figures stood before the portholes, gazing at the blue planet, each with a nervous expression.

Only the silver-haired youth stood at the very front, still as calm as ever.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

A vibration suddenly rang out, Immediately, everyone's gaze shifted, fixed on the silver-haired youth's wrist.

Ye Yukong smiled faintly, lowered his head, and opened the communicator.

The message was very short, only a few words.

After reading it, Ye Yukong turned to face the crowd and spoke solemnly.

"Notify all starships..."

Ye Yukong paused, a smile appearing.

"Return, go home!"

The message crossed the void, spreading throughout the entire star system.

On the orbits of various planets, the docked steel behemoths slowly set sail, once again heading towards Ziying Star.

On the starships, the hundreds of millions of people who were already feeling apprehensive quickly noticed something was wrong and crowded to the portholes.

Looking at the increasingly close blue planet, everyone was confused.

"Weren't we supposed to evacuate? Why are we going back?"

"Could it be that the Evil God isn't coming?"

"No way? The Evil God's threat isn't a joke!"

"Evacuating an entire planet, how can it be so casual?"

"Nonsense, isn't it a good thing if the Evil God isn't coming? Did you want to wander in outer space?"

"That's right, Ziying Star is our home!"

Anxiety, doubt, relief, hope...

Noisy discussions filled every corner of the tens of thousands of starships.

Suddenly, Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The communicators on the wrists of over a hundred billion people vibrated simultaneously.

A projection screen popped up, lines of text scrolling.
