In the end, Liu Yi and Lu An went back.
Liu Yi didn't agree at first, even though Lu An said that Chu Ling was still there. She wanted to send Lu An to a safe place first, then go and save Chu Ling herself.
However, Liu Yi couldn't win against Lu An. She found that she couldn't disobey Lu An's orders anymore.
The two of them took advantage of the heavy rain and returned to the deep pit. On the way back, apart from the first half of the journey, when Liu Yi carried Lu An, Lu An was the only one who hurried back.
His injuries were rapidly recovering, which was the same reason why he didn't die from the attack.
If it was his usual self, that kind of explosion would have killed him. Even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured beyond saving. He knew better than anyone how terrifying the Scorching Sun Nine Suns was. He knew this very well, so before he rushed out of the fog, he ate an immortal pill.
That's right, it was one of the three immortal pills that Jun gave him before he left Sengoku.
Although he had never eaten this immortal pill before, and didn't know if this immortal pill really had the effect of reviving the dead, he could only gamble. Moreover, Sengoku was a magical place. Lu An was still willing to gamble on life.
Sure enough, the immortal pill didn't disappoint him.
Actually, when he first fell into the mud, his whole body was already in tatters, with wounds and rotten flesh everywhere. When Liu Yi found him, the powerful immortal pill had already healed all his external wounds, and even his internal injuries were mostly healed.
When Liu Yi carried Lu An back to Starfire Academy, the treatment was almost complete, which was why Lu An woke up.
Although Lu An didn't look any different, he was shocked by the power of the immortal pill. He didn't think that he was just lightly injured, but that this immortal pill had truly reached a heaven-defying level!
Even his Sea of Consciousness was being repaired quickly and his Fate Wheels were being regenerated rapidly. While sighing at the power of the immortal pill, Lu An was also annoyed. He didn't think that the first immortal pill would be used so quickly.
When the two of them returned to the explosion site, Lu An's strength had already recovered by about seventy to eighty percent. He looked around. Although the surrounding buildings and ground had already collapsed, he quickly found the place where Chu Ling was hiding.
Luckily, he had already thought of using the Scorching Sun Nine Suns to fight the enemy, so he hid Chu Ling far away. Otherwise, the explosion would have swallowed her whole.
When the two of them found Chu Ling was hiding in a corner of a ruined house, she was trembling and didn't dare to move. Seeing that Chu Ling was fine, Lu An heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Chu Ling was a Celestial Being. Otherwise, the collapse of the house would have been a huge crisis for her.
After saving Chu Ling's Heavens, he once again, Heavenly Return. Now that he had recovered most of his strength, he wouldn't be afraid even if a Level 3 Heavenly Master from the rebel army came. Unfortunately, from the time of the explosion until now, not a single rebel had come.
Under Liu Yi's guidance, Lu An quickly arrived in front of the middle-aged man's corpse. Looking at his opponent's corpse, Lu An's eyes were cold and emotionless.
After a while, he bent down and grabbed the corpse from the ground.
"What are you doing?" Liu Yi was startled and asked.
Grabbing the corpse, Lu An turned to Liu Yi, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "It's time for this battle to end."

The next morning.
When Lu An, Liu Yi, and Chu Ling appeared at Starfire Academy at the same time and threw the middle-aged man's corpse on the ground, everyone was shocked.
The dean looked at the corpse on the ground and couldn't help but frown. He asked Lu An, "Who is this?"
"A Level 4 Heavenly Master from the rebel army." Lu An didn't beat around the bush and directly said.
The moment he said that, everyone present was first stunned, then they were completely shocked!
The dean looked at Lu An in shock, then looked at the corpse, then looked at Lu An. He immediately rushed in front of Lu An and said loudly, "Is this true?!"
"Yes." Lu An nodded and said, "Absolutely true."
Seeing Lu An's confident look, the dean's heart was filled with shock. Although he didn't know how Lu An did it, he couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart!
"Good! Good! Good!! " The dean continued to shout, his voice uncontrollably high as he said loudly, "With the Level 4 Heavenly Master dead, we can completely counterattack!"
On the side, the Vice Dean looked at the corpse on the ground and quickly came in front of Lu An and asked, "This person … was killed by you?"
"President Liu and I killed him together." Hearing this, Lu An said, "Killing him wasn't easy. We also planned it for a long time and used some priceless strength."
Hearing Lu An's obscure words, everyone was shocked. Lu An had grown so much, no one would believe that he didn't have any secrets. Lu An's words made them believe a lot more!
"It's good that he's dead! It's good that he's dead! "The dean quickly said," Lu An, now that you're the City Lord, what do you think we should do next?! "
The moment he said that, everyone looked at Lu An. That's right, if there were people who didn't want to accept Lu An as the Acting City Lord, now that a Level 4 Heavenly Master was in front of them, who would dare to say no?
Seeing everyone looking at him, Lu An did not have any intention of shirking. He took a light breath and said, "With the death of the Level 4 Heavenly Master, the rebel army must be in chaos right now. I'm afraid they won't have the time to care about the outside. Gather all the merchants and families here. Our goal isn't to kill but to force the rebel army out of Meteor Trail City without injuring a single person. "
… …
… …
Noon, a quarter past noon.
Under Lu An's lead, all the Heavenly Masters in Meteor Trail City gathered together, including the soldiers and guards from before. They walked through the main road in front of the City Lord's Mansion and headed towards the City Lord's Mansion!
This group had a huge momentum. Just the Heavenly Masters alone numbered over a hundred while the soldiers numbered over ten thousand! With so many people heading towards the City Lord's Mansion, it attracted many commoners who were hiding in their houses to poke their heads out.
Following which, the commoners were shocked to find that in front of this huge group, there was a several zhang tall pole in the middle of a carriage. On top of the pole, there was a corpse hanging!
Whose corpse was that?
The commoners all looked at the corpse in astonishment. Following which, they were surprised to find that the group heading towards the City Lord's Mansion, whether it was the Heavenly Masters or the soldiers, did not have the slightest bit of fear on their faces. Instead, they were all aggressive, as if they were certain of victory!
What was going on? Could it be that the reinforcements of the Midnight Pavilion had arrived?
On the way, there were many hungover rebels who walked out of the houses of the commoners. Without exception, all of these rebels were killed by this huge group. Especially when there were Heavenly Masters who tried to report the news, they were also discovered by the huge group of Heavenly Masters and were all killed one by one.
However, this news still quickly spread to the City Lord's Mansion. After all, their boss had yet to return. Coupled with the terrifying battle last night, they did not dare to go. Now that their boss was hanging on the enemy's pole, how could they have the courage to stay?
To be able to kill their boss meant that there was a Level 4 Heavenly Master in the enemy's team!
Thus, in an instant, the Heavenly Masters of the City Lord's Mansion scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in all directions as fast as they could. Even when Lu An's team arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, there was no one in the City Lord's Mansion.
The huge group of people drove straight into the City Lord's Mansion and found all the remnants of the rebel army and killed them one by one. Although most of the rebel army had escaped, the City Lord's Mansion was still filled with corpses.
Most of these corpses were the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
Under Lu An's orders, the main city gates were not defended so that the rebel army could escape unimpeded. At this time, there was no need for any more casualties.
Soon, news came from the main city gates that the rebel army had completely retreated. After hearing this news, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion's main hall cheered loudly!
From the moment the rebel army appeared until now, they could finally celebrate!
This was a hard-won victory, and it was also a victory that everyone had been looking forward to for a long time. Everyone jumped up and hugged each other. Many people even cried.
When Lu An heard the news, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He looked at the cheering people in the main hall and saw the sad Chu Ling in the corner.
Seeing Chu Ling, he could not help but feel heartache.
After a while, everyone stopped. Soon, everyone stood in front of Lu An. The people from the various Chambers of Commerce, families, and academies stood in front of Lu An in an orderly manner, waiting for Lu An's orders.
Everyone looked at Lu An with determination in their eyes. At this moment, Lu An was their faith.
Including Liu Yi.
Lu An looked at the crowd and said, "From now on, thoroughly investigate the remnants of the Meteor Trail City's rebel army. Interrogate all those with unknown identities to prevent them from continuing to harm the people."
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison!
