Lin Tianming had originally planned to fly to the Imperial City, but as soon as he stepped out of Nan Xin'er's ancient house, he realized that wouldn't work.
Not to mention whether planes could still fly to the Imperial City right now, even if they could, it would be too late by the time he arrived.
In order to return to the Imperial City as soon as possible and to have a means of dealing with those Divine Realm Demons, he went back to seek help from Nan Xin'er.
After much persuasion, Lin Tianming managed to obtain quite a few valuable items, and even had Nan Xin'er send him directly to Hua Yufei's house.
Upon his arrival, he witnessed Hua Yufei's home under attack and immediately released the Gu Worms, which swarmed over the bodies of the Divine Realm Demons overrun by Evil Ghost Fire Spirits and Bloodthirsty Mad Scorpions.
Hearing the voices of Senior Sister Yanran and the others expressing their surprise, Lin Tianming turned and showed them a reassuring smile.
"Wait a moment, I'll kill these two Demons and then we can chat!"
After saying this, Lin Tianming turned his attention back to the two Divine Realm Demons covered in Gu Worms.
"Kill them!"
Under Lin Tianming's command, the famished Gu Worms immediately went into action.
Even though the two demons were of the Divine Realm, their bodies were torn apart by the myriad of Gu Worms.
"No... I was sealed for a hundred years... only to escape... without even having had a taste of flesh... How could I die so miserably here... Ah!"
"Stop... stop biting! I... I won't drink blood anymore! Make these damn Gu Worms stop... No!"
Within a mere moment, these two Divine Realm Demons, who had just broken free from their confinement, were completely devoured by the Gu Worms, leaving nothing behind.
Despite the horrifying scene before their eyes, Wang Yanran and the others felt immensely gratified.
They hadn't seen Tianming for over a month, and he had grown strong enough to slay Divine Realm Demons!
Having succeeded in killing the Evil Ghost Fire Spirit and Bloodthirsty Mad Scorpion, Lin Tianming took out a small bottle from his Storage Space and then carefully collected the life-saving Gu Worms given by Nan Xin'er.
After cautiously storing away these Gu Worms capable of devouring Divine Realm Demons at will, Lin Tianming then turned and walked towards Wang Yanran and the others.
Huang Yiyi also threw herself into Lin Tianming's arms, expressing her longing for him.
"Tianming, you're finally back. I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
Huang Yiyi's words were prone to misunderstanding.
But Lin Tianming knew that Huang Yiyi had no interest in romance; she was just a bit dependent on him.
Sister Sarah also came forward and said, "Tianming, welcome back!"
Lin Tianming replied, "Mhm, Sarah, have you adapted well to staying in the Imperial City for over a month? Don't you miss your home in the Central Holy Domain?"
"Not at all, I just missed you."
Sister Sarah was telling the truth.
Lin Tianming was the first to witness her monstrous form, yet still accept her.
Moreover, the warmth from Lin Tianming made her feel fond of him.
Like Huang Yiyi, she only wished to follow someone like Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming also knew that his absence for over a month had been a big shock to those who cared about him.
He said, "I'm sorry for making you all worry."
Hua Yufei smiled and said, "It's good that you're back. Junior Brother Tianming, come inside and sit down for a while!"
Mo Jinghong chimed in, "Yes, Junior Brother Tianming, we've missed you to death. You have to come inside and tell us where you've been running wild this past month!"
Wang Yanran also said, "That's right, Junior Brother Tianming, it's been so long since we've seen you; you must spend some time with us!"
Lin Tianming was touched by the concern of Senior Sister Yanran and the others.
But now was not the time for catching up.
He first came here only because he was worried that Huang Yiyi and Sister Sarah would run away if they didn't see him, as well as the safety of Hua Yufei and the other two.
Now that they are temporarily safe, he must go find Qingxue and the others.
Ensure everyone is safe, then go to support Teacher Jiang Han and Teacher Tianshui.
"Sorry, with the breaking of the Magic Tomb Seal, a large number of Divine Realm Demons have been released. I need to help Teacher Jiang Han and the others. Once things have stabilized, I'll come back and catch up with you!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions on Wang Yanran and the others' faces showed some disappointment.
But they also understood the heavy burden Lin Tianming bore.
He possessed a Gu Worm that could even devour Divine Realm Demons, and now he was the only one who could help Jiang Han and Tianshui get through the toughest moments right after the breach of the seal.
If they could endure this, everything would become easier.
With this thought, Hua Yufei said, "Go on, Junior Brother Tianming, you are the only one now who can help Teacher Jiang Han and Teacher Tianshui!"
Mo Jinghong also echoed, "Yes, we will wait for you here obediently, Junior Brother Tianming, go do what you think is right!"
Huang Yiyi, after hugging Lin Tianming, also took the initiative to let go of him, not wanting to hinder him from doing what he wished to do.
Sister Sarah too stepped back to the side of Hua Yufei and the others, her intentions were clear.
No matter what Lin Tianming did, they would all be supportive.
Wang Yanran did not want to stop Lin Tianming either, whose strength had now surpassed her own.
However, before letting Lin Tianming go, she did something extremely daring in front of everyone.
"Mmm!"
Lin Tianming was stolen a kiss by Senior Sister Yanran again.
Wang Yanran also knew she couldn't delay Lin Tianming for long, so she withdrew after just a few seconds.
Even so, Hua Yufei and Mo Jinghong had their faces flushed and hearts beating.
Although Sister Sarah was the Deceit God in human form, she also found it quite thrilling.
Huang Yiyi felt the same.
But it was just the thrill; there were no mortal thoughts of love.
After kissing Lin Tianming, Wang Yanran also bade him farewell, "Junior Brother Tianming, you must come back alive; we still have to have a celebration feast at Senior Sister Yu Fei's house!"
Lin Tianming did not rush to leave but instead took out another treasure that he had acquired from Nan Xin'er.
A Witch Gu Bell that jingled crisply when shaken.
As Lin Tianming shook the bell, Hua Yufei's house became enveloped in a strong Witch Gu Aura.
"Just stay inside the house. This Witch Barrier will erase your scent, hiding you and the entire yard. Even if Divine Realm Demons use special methods, they won't be able to detect you. Wait for me with peace of mind until I come back!"
After saying that, Lin Tianming did not look back and hurried towards the direction of the Imperial Academy.
Watching Lin Tianming leave, Hua Yufei, Wang Yanran, and Mo Jinghong felt somewhat dazed.
At one time, the junior brother whom they had to take care of had now grown to a point where he could effortlessly kill Divine Realm Demons.
He has now grown wings and can shelter them from wind and rain.
Thinking this, the sisters who were Lin Tianming's seniors were full of relief in their eyes.
"When I first met Junior Brother Tianming at the academy, he was just ten-level… I was afraid that he would be bullied by Lei Dong… but in a blink of an eye… he has become so strong… strong enough to provide us with shelter!"
"Indeed, although he is only Level 90 now and still lower in level than me, he already has the means to kill Divine Realm Demons. Let's just calmly wait for the good news from Junior Brother Tianming!"
"Senior Sister Yu Fei, Junior Sister Jing Hong, seeing Junior Brother Tianming's growth, I am truly happy. I believe that Teacher Jiang Han and Teacher Tianshui will also be pleasantly surprised by his development!"
