Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Mom, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing!” Billy smiled.

“Billy, when do you plan to leave?” Edie Fennimore asked.

“If nothing changes, I’ll depart in three months,” Billy replied after a brief thought.

“In these three months, you should focus on your training and try to reach the Entering Emptiness Realm before heading to the mid-tier star domain,” Edie added.

“Training is fine, but breaking through levels here is impossible,” Billy laughed. “Due to the law of heaven and earth, it’s hard to break through here. Training can only serve as accumulation.”

“Right, I forgot about that,” Edie nodded and continued, “By the way, Billy, are you really planning to establish a martial arts academy in the Forbidden Ruins Space?”

“I do have that idea,” Billy responded. “Our world’s martial arts are too low. If something unexpected happens, we won’t even be able to resist.”

“Once the institute is established, I’ll have Canyon View Institute regularly select some people for further training.”

“Understood,” Edie nodded again.

That night, Billy stayed in the capital and talked with Emperor Greenleaf until late at night. Initially, Billy planned to help Emperor Greenleaf improve his cultivation. However, he found that Emperor Greenleaf had already reached the ceiling of this world. To break through further, he would have to leave, which was not feasible in the short term. Billy had to put it off for now and wait until Emperor Greenleaf could safely leave this world.

Stephanie Stuart and Eliza Rice were in similar situations. Their cultivation had also reached the ceiling of this world, and they would need to leave to continue breaking through.

The next morning, Billy bid farewell to Stephanie Stuart and Edie Fennimore and returned to Ether Mountain. Eliza Rice stayed in the capital to assist Emperor Greenleaf with some matters. Before leaving, Billy gave Emperor Greenleaf a storage ring. Inside were ten thousand supreme-grade spirit stones, a large amount of high-level cultivation resources, and two sets of Heaven Dao Realm martial arts. Although Emperor Greenleaf couldn’t use most of these items immediately, they would be useful once he left this world.

For the next period, Billy stayed at Ether Mountain enjoying family life. During the day, he wandered around Ether Mountain with Harleen and Tasha, occasionally guiding Tasha in martial arts. At night, after Tasha fell asleep, he and Harleen took turns chatting with Stephanie Stuart and Zeph Knight. In the quiet of the night, he and Harleen would find a place to meditate and train.

He hadn’t experienced such days in many years. Sometimes he thought that being an ordinary person wouldn’t be so bad; at least he could always be with his family. However, given his current responsibilities, stopping wasn’t an option.

Previously, as the young master of Ether Mountain, his duty was to protect his family and country and lead Glavale to a new golden age. Now that this goal had been achieved, especially after recent events, he believed that within a century, no one could stop Glavale’s rise.

However, his burdens had not lessened; they had increased. The events in the City of the Dead had deeply affected him. Even without the existence of the Nine Dragons Cauldron, he had to go to the mid-tier star domain. One reason was to find his father; another was to prevent people from the mid-tier star domain from coming to the lower-tier star domain.

He knew that the road ahead would only get harder. Above the mid-tier star domain was the high-tier star domain, and he couldn’t predict how far he could go.

That night, Billy and Harleen chatted with Stephanie Stuart and Edie Fennimore.

“Mom, Aunt Edie, I’ll need your help with establishing the institute in Forbidden Ruins Space,” Billy said.

“Billy, don’t worry; it’s not difficult,” Edie replied. “The four imperial families had already discussed this with Skydragon City before. We just hadn’t decided yet. Since you have this plan now, Stephanie and I will start working on it.”

“Alright,” Billy nodded. “Aubree might stay in Sky City for a while. I’ll have her go to Forbidden Ruins Space to assist you.”

“She’s now at sixth-rank Heaven Dao Realm; she’s more than capable of guiding the institute’s disciples.”

“That’s great! Having a Heaven Dao Realm expert will make the institute much more attractive,” Stephanie Stuart nodded.

“Mom, Aunt Edie, once the institute is running smoothly and you can step away, I’ll come back to take you to Great Blue City,” Harleen said.

“The martial arts ceiling here is too low; you can only improve your strength by going out.”

“Alright!” Stephanie Stuart smiled and nodded. “We do want to see the outside world. We’ll bring Peak Master along!”

“Okay,” Billy nodded.

After talking for about an hour, Billy and Harleen went to see Eliza Rice.

Happy times always pass quickly; two months flew by in an instant. During this time, Ether Mountain saw a constant stream of visitors. Besides old friends, there were people from various sects and families, including the Ravenwood family, Phoenix Divine Palace, and the Meskill family.

Casey and Felicia arrived at Ether Mountain on the same day as Ivy and her brother. Opal and Amber returned the next day. They were most shocked by Tasha’s cultivation level. Sensing her martial arts aura almost made them bite their tongues in disbelief.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

She truly surpassed her predecessors! At twelve years old, she had reached Sovereign Realm cultivation level despite being deliberately suppressed. What would happen when she was allowed to fully unleash her potential?

With their arrival, Ether Mountain became even more lively. Tasha was the happiest; she even laughed in her sleep.

One day while Billy was chatting with his mother, his Mystic Echo Stone stirred.

“Mom, I might have to leave early,” Billy said with a slight frown after listening to the message from the Mystic Echo Stone.

“What happened?” Stephanie Stuart asked.

“There’s a situation at the entrance of Star Domain Chasm,” Billy replied.

The message was from a man in Array Alliance whom Billy had instructed to contact him in case of emergencies when he left through the passageway. The man’s life was in Billy’s hands due to nine silver needles planted in his body, so he wouldn’t dare play any tricks.

“Are people from the mid-tier star domain coming again?” Stephanie Stuart’s face showed concern.

“Yes,” Billy nodded.

“Then you should go,” Stephanie said with a worried look. “Be careful out there.”

“Mom, don’t worry; we’ll be fine,” Billy reassured her.

Billy then sent messages to Azure Dragon and Azure Fang among others. Within an hour, everyone gathered at Ether Mountain.

This time, although Tasha was reluctant to part with them again, she didn’t cry as much as before. She had grown up and become more understanding.

Moreover, Stephanie Stuart promised her that she would take her to Forbidden Ruins Space soon and then to Great Blue Star Domain after dealing with institute matters.

Before leaving, Billy gave storage rings to Stephanie Stuart and Eliza Rice each.

By noon that day, Billy set off again with Harleen and Casey among others.
