On reflection, it had not actually been that long since he had last returned to Blue Star.
Even counting every day.
Less than two years had passed since Ye Li left Huaxia.
But compared with his entire Martial Dao journey thus far, that stretch of time was already long enough.
"..."
Yang Qingshan gazed at the white-robed figure before him, feeling somewhat dazed.
Once again, he had returned at a critical moment when their very survival hung in the balance!
And once again, like a god descending from heaven, he had casually erased a cataclysm powerful enough to destroy Blue Star with a wave of his hand!
The sight sent emotion surging through Yang Qingshan, as though he had returned to those days when he watched Ye Li stride invincibly across the nations of Blue Star, maneuvering between them and crushing all opposition at will.
"G-General Ye!"
Zhang Qingliu finally recovered from his overwhelming shock as well, unable to contain the excitement churning within him.
Ignoring the dazed Yang Qingshan.
The normally steady, seasoned Pillar of the Nation of Huaxia hurried forward like a junior and asked:
"Thank you for all your efforts out beyond the stars. Did you run into any trouble?"
Even Huaxia was in such dire straits, let alone the world beyond.
Zhang Qingliu truly could not imagine.
What hardships had this guardian of Huaxia, who had shed his youthful innocence, endured out there to acquire such unparalleled divine might?
"Trouble?"
Ye Li considered briefly, then shook his head.
"There wasn't any trouble, or any danger."
"Still, if you plan to break through the Starry Sky Great Wall and travel beyond it someday, you'll need to be careful."
After all, cultivation at the late stage of Mountain Sea Realm was rather feeble in the vast universe.
