My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 121 Signing up to go home

"These guys—they really can't stand being alone!"

Inside a building near the Void Dojo, Yang Qingsong said with a strange expression, "Let's hope no one dies so soon."

"Class monitor, is this really okay?"

Xiao Qingyi was somewhat worried: "After all, we are outsiders, and we will have to return to Earth sooner or later. If someone chooses to stay, or tries to take the natives back, will it cause trouble?"

After all, this is their homeroom teacher's training ground, not a normal alternate world.

If Teacher Li Chen doesn't release them, it will be a tragedy.

Standing on the newly built observation platform, gazing at the lights of Qing Shi Town in the distance, Yang Qingsong said in a deep voice, "Teacher Li Chen told us 'not to have conflicts with the indigenous people,' but he didn't forbid any interaction. And—"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Haven't you noticed? Time flows 365 times faster on Moonspring Star than outside. One year here is only one day outside. This means we have plenty of time to think about the future."

"You mean—" Xiao Qingyi's eyes flickered.

What I mean is, there's no need to rush into making a decision.

Yang Qingsong said, "Let the relationship develop naturally. If we are truly meant to be, perhaps the teacher will make arrangements when we graduate."

Don't forget, Moon Spring Star is now our teacher's dojo. He can't keep us trapped here forever, but he also won't easily let outsiders in.

"Qingsong is right. Moreover, these relationships are not necessarily a bad thing. The union of students and indigenous people can promote the exchange and integration of the two civilizations."

At this moment, Xin Zhirou slowly walked over with Yao Ruoxi: "The indigenous people can learn more systematic cultivation knowledge from the students."

More advanced production technologies. Students can learn about the ecological environment of Luna Spring from the indigenous people and learn survival wisdom that is closer to nature.

Yao Ruoxi tilted her little face up, looking at her with a mixture of understanding and confusion, and asked, "Mommy, is that like what Master said, 'The Way follows nature'?"

Xin Zhirou smiled and patted her daughter's head: "That's right. Everything has its own destiny, just let nature take its course."

She is no longer the weak woman she once was; she has now reached the Condensation Realm.

Although her cultivation level was not the highest among these students, she was considered the strongest person on Moon Spring Star besides Li Chen because she had reached the theoretical limit of the Body Tempering Realm.

Strength earns respect everywhere.

Therefore, the other students dared not ignore her words.

Another point worth mentioning is that someone, I don't know who, spread rumors that Li Chen and Xin Zhirou might be having an affair, and even suspected that Yao Ruoxi might be Li Chen's child.

Of course, this rumor has not yet spread widely.

Time flies, and two more years have passed on Moon Spring Star.

Over the past two years, the students' overall cultivation level has improved significantly.

Yang Qingsong also broke through to the early stage of the Condensation Realm.

Xiao Qingyi reached the perfect Qi Gathering Realm.

As for Xin Zhirou, she has already reached the peak of the Kaiyuan Realm, and is only one step away from the Ling Shen Realm.

Ten-year-old Yao Ruoxi, thanks to Li Chen's instructions, did not need to cultivate deliberately, but she had already reached the Condensation Realm, and her cultivation speed had caught up with Yang Qingsong and others.

Currently, more than thirty of Li Chen's students have broken through to the Condensation Realm, while the rest are almost all in the Gathering Qi Realm.

This is because these people did not focus on cultivation. Many were more interested in exploring and developing planets, and their cultivation was only sporadic.

Another noteworthy event was the joint construction of a "Crescent Camp" by the students and the indigenous people.

This camp is located a hundred miles away from the Void Dojo, and it is now taking shape.

In the center of the camp is a three-story wooden building that serves as a conference room, library, and medical station.

A stone tablet stands in the square in front of the building, inscribed with a simplified version of the "Three Essentials of Foundation Building"—a version improved by the research team to be more suitable for popularization.

To the east of the camp is the Spirit Field area, where various kinds of spirit rice, spirit vegetables, and spirit fruits are grown.

Lin Xiaoyu and Zhao Mingxuan have established an experimental field here to try hybridizing different varieties and cultivating higher-yielding crops.

The west side is the training area, which has a sparring arena, a meditation room, and a body-tempering pool that draws in spiritual spring water.

To the north is the residential area, with rows of wooden houses neatly arranged, each with its own small courtyard, where students can plant flowers or vegetables according to their preferences.

The south side is the exchange area, where indigenous people often come to trade.

They traded animal hides, herbs, and ores for tools and clothing made by the students, or for questions about cultivation.

Zhou Wenyuan and Aya traveled between the camp and Qingshi Town, establishing a simple trading and communication mechanism.

Li Xuewei and Shi Feng organized a joint patrol team to protect the camp and the safety of Qingshi Town.

On this day, the gates of the Void Dojo suddenly opened.

Li Chen emerged from within, his aura growing increasingly profound and unfathomable.

After breaking through to the Dao Lotus Realm, his control over Moon Spring Star reached a new level; with a mere thought, he could sense events occurring on the planet.

Many things.

"teacher!"

"head teacher!"

Students from the surrounding area gathered around and bowed respectfully.

Li Chen glanced at everyone and nodded slightly: "Not bad, you've all improved."

His gaze lingered briefly on several couples before he said, "Anyone who wants to go home can sign up now, and I'll take you home first. But those who want to stay can continue to stay."

He paused, then added, "Those who stay may remain for many years, perhaps decades or even centuries. Think it over carefully before making a decision."

"Oh, this—"

"Can we go back now?"

"It's been five or six years. I miss home. Can I finally go back?"

Some people were excited. Although only five or six days had passed outside, it felt like five or six years to them.

How many five- or six-year periods does one have in a lifetime?

Of course, some people didn't want to go back, since their lifespan had increased after they started cultivating.

In just five or six years, the impact has been minimal.

Time flies so fast here, I can slack off a bit, and when I go back I'll be able to crush a lot of people.

"Teacher, many people do want to go back a long time ago, but it will probably take some time for them to get back."

Yang Qingsong quickly said, "Some students have already gone quite far—"

"Don't you have wristwatch communicators? Just let those who want to go home register through the wristwatch communicator."

Li Chen waved his hand: "Those who want to go home, I can take them directly, as long as they stay on this planet. Those—"

Those in a relationship can take their partner with them if they want, but it must be voluntary; coercion is absolutely prohibited.

Everyone present was immediately taken aback.

Over the past few years, they have roughly figured out the sheer size of this planet.

This planet is far larger than Earth.

As a result, Teacher Li Chen was able to ignore the distance and take people from other places with him as well?

"Then I'll notify the others and see who wants to sign up." Yang Qingsong nodded quickly.

As he spoke, he quickly sent a group notification via his watch communicator.
