Star Odyssey Chapter 1345: Luo Shen's Dance Performance

Chapter 1345: Luo Shen’s Dance Performance

Lu Yin frowned; why would an Enlighter have gone to East San Dios? That place only held the Outerverse Youth Council, which meant little to nothing to an Enlighter. Also, since Lu Yin had been absent at the time, the only person in all of East San Dios to possibly hold enough value for an Enlighter to visit would have been Liu Shaoge. After all, Liu Shaoge had ties with the Daynight clan.

Could it have been someone from the Daynight clan?

Lu Yin could not figure anything out.

Lu Yin hung up. There was no news from East San Dios. Liu Shaoge had gone missing, but Lu Yin was not overly concerned.

In the past, Liu Shaoge had triggered Lu Yin’s anger and hatred, but Lu Yin had risen to a level too far above Liu Shaoge. At present, Liu Shaoge was too far beneath Lu Yin to warrant any notice. Even Bai Qian did not qualify to draw Lu Yin’s attention, so there was no need to even mention Liu Shaoge.

He had only asked about him out of curiosity, and nothing more.

He felt a slight vibration as the s.p.a.cecraft docked with Earth’s s.p.a.ce station.

Lu Yin casually stepped out, disappearing from the ship and completely evading all detection from the s.p.a.ce station. He traveled straight to the surface, and appeared in Jinlin City.

Earth had continued to change more and more, and more and more cultivators had started to appear. Given the fact that Earth was considered Lu Yin's home planet and had been where he had first started cultivating, many people traveled from all over to visit Earth.

If not for Earth’s small size, it would have rivaled Zenyu Star itself. Naturally, prices on the planet were exorbitant, but fortunately for the locals, that was only relative to prices that foreigners were accustomed to, and expenses had remained the same for the locals.

Skysc.r.a.pers pierced through the clouds. Aircraft roamed the sky, and cultivators tried to slip down to the planet from time to time, but were all intercepted by patrolling troops. Jinlin City looked like a technological exhibit.

No one could believe that just a bit more than ten years had pa.s.sed since this place had been left in ruins and looking like something straight out of the apocalypse.

Lu Yin’s domain swept out and he quickly found Zhou Shan.

Only a few of the people Lu Yin knew from his time on Earth were still on the planet. Bai Xua and a few others had disappeared into Jupiter, so Lu Yin was only able to find Zhou Shan and a few others upon his arrival on Earth.

However, the gap between them had grown by leaps and bounds, and it was no longer something that could be ignored.

As the honorary director of Jinlin’s military academy, Zhou Shan held a very high status. He had also been one of China’s Seven Sages during Earth’s apocalypse. Despite the fact that he was weak and had never even managed to become an Explorer, no one could rattle Zhou Shan’s status, and this was because he was friends with Lu Yin.

In a large office with slightly quaint decorations, there was a middle-aged man looking down at some doc.u.ments. On the wall behind him, where normally a picture or bit of calligraphy would hang, there is an ax, and it gave the entire office a bit of a chill.

There was a knock at the door. "Come in."

A young woman entered and respectfully said, "Director, the students’ seats have been arranged. The coordinator for the dance party had been very respectful towards our school. Our students will all sit in the middle and will not be mixed in with other people."

"Alright, that's good. Arrange for a few more teachers as chaperones. We can’t allow the students to have any accidents," the middle-aged man said.

The young woman stepped back out of the office.

The man had continued to examine his doc.u.ments the entire time and had never once looked up at the woman.

"At first glance, you really do really look like the academy’s director. Aren’t you supposed to be an honorary director? Is there really a need for you to work?" A voice entered the middle-aged man's ears, and his expression instantly changed dramatically; someone had gotten close without him noticing?

The man looked up and saw someone sitting on a nearby sofa, and instantly the man’s expression turned to one of delight. "You’re back?"

"Director Zhou, you’re becoming more and more respectable." Lu Yin smiled. He sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking completely relaxed.

Zhou Shan laughed loudly. He stood up and stretched his waist.

"Dealing with this c.r.a.p is more of a pain than killing an enemy on the battlefield." As he spoke, he pointed to the ax on the wall. "Look, it's all rusted."

Lu Yin smiled and said, "There’s no longer any chance for you to kill your enemy since your opponents are only those students."

Zhou Shan smiled wryly. "I might not do too well if I did go up against the students."

This was true. After all, Zhou Shan had never received any kind of formal training, and some of the students might not actually lose to him. As time pa.s.sed, more and more people had started traveling to visit Earth, and Zhou Shan's strength was not enough to even stir up dust for some of the visitors.

"But fortunately, with you behind me, no one dares do anything to me, and that alone takes care of a hundred different matters, haha" Zhou Shan said with a smile.

At this moment, the door to the office was suddenly pushed open, and a little girl in her early teens walked in. "Dad, when will the people from the Yu Academy get here? I’m going to take that test, and you can't stop me!"

Zhou Shan grew embarra.s.sed and he quickly pulled the girl over. "Don't be rude! Come over and say hi to Uncle Lu."

The girl blinked her eyes in confusion as she stared at Lu Yin, but then her eyes lit up and her little face flushed with excitement. "Lu- Lu- Lu Yin?"

Lu Yin found her reaction funny.

Zhou Shan snorted. "What ‘Lu Yin’? That’s not what I told you. Call him Uncle Lu."

The girl excitedly turned to look at her father. "Dad, really weren’t bragging! You really do know Lu Yin."

"Call him Uncle Lu." Zhou Shan patted her on the head.

Lu Yin said, "You’ve got a very cute little girl. Your name should be Xixi. I’ve seen you before."

This girl was Zhou Shan's daughter Zhou Xixi.

"You- you’ve seen me before?" Zhou Xixi became even more excited. At this time, was there anyone who didn’t worship Lu Yin? Many Earthlings actually regarded him as a G.o.d.

Lu Yin nodded and answered with a smile, "Not only have I seen you, I even held you as a baby, and I even gave you your formcast model."

Zhou Xixi became so excited she did not even know what to say.

Zhou Shan smiled wryly. "It’s too bad. You're just a girl who doesn't understand what she’s told."

Lu Yin laughed. "I never expected you to grow so big in the blink of an eye! Just a few more years and you’ll be getting married, haha."

Zhou Xixi quickly retorted, "I don't want to get married! I want to go to the Yu Academy and travel through the universe."

Zhou Shan felt a headache come over him.

Lu Yin leaned forward and stared at Zhou Xixi. "Why do you want to go into s.p.a.ce?"

Zhou Xixi clenched her little fists. "I want to fight with you, Uncle Lu! You’re always alone whenever you fight, and you look too lonely."

Lu Yin was startled; he was lonely?

Zhou Shan fiercely twisted Zhou Xixi's ear. "Be quiet! You can’t say things like that to him. Alright now, head on out. I need to talk with Uncle Lu for a bit."

Zhou Xixi rolled her eyes. "Come on, like Uncle Lu care at all about your stuff? It's not a big deal."

Zhou Shan was speechless.

…

Half an hour later, Lu Yin walked out of the Jinlin Military Academy, laughing. Was he lonely? After thinking about it, the girl had been right. Most of the times that Lu Yin had fought, he had been alone. The world of adults was complicated, while children saw a world that was pure, and they could sometimes see things more clearly. Lu Yin had not expected a child to pinpoint his situation.

He felt helpless, as there was no other way. No matter what decision a person made, they would have to suffer the consequences. What was there to do about it? Loneliness was something that had to be endured.

Lu Yin remembered Ming Yan, and he lifted his hand to activate his gadget, but right then he saw an impressive number of runes flash by.

Lu Yin’s head snapped over to the right. Cla.s.ses were in session, so there was n.o.body around. A single glance was enough for Lu Yin to notice an old man walking by, and he looked at the old man more closely.

Judging by the mans runes, he was at least an Enlighter. Earth had actually drawn Enlighters?

Lu Yin suppressed his breath and slowly followed the old man.

The old man did not notice Lu Yin’s presence and continued to walk around the Jinlin Military Academy. Students walked out of their cla.s.srooms in an orderly manner, and the old man silently followed them.

Lu Yin frowned; all of the students were out? Wasn’t this time for cla.s.ses to be in session?

The old man was an Enlighter, and yet he just followed behinds the group of students, and Lu Yin casually followed behind the old man

The group of students quickly boarded a large transport vehicle that belonged to the school. The military cleared a path in front of the students as the vehicle made its way to the largest stadium that stood in the center of Jinlin.

The old man followed on foot. Each step he took carried him a kilometer. He walked very slowly, but seemed to step through s.p.a.ce.

Lu Yin traveled in the same manner, but no one on Earth saw this scene.

Zhou Shan sat next to his daughter on the transport.

"Xixi, remember, that incident with Uncle Lu can’t be made public," Zhou Shan warned.

Zhou Xixi said, "I understand, I'm not a child, you know?"

"Pay more attention to this!" Zhou Shan said in an angry tone.

"Dad, why did Luo Shen come to Earth to dance? They can’t be offering her much for her appearance, so she’s definitely not doing it for the money."

"Do you think that money is the only thing that motivates people? Earth is a place that is a bit too unique in the universe, because this is your Uncle Lu's home planet. Everyone wants to move here in order to develop a relationship with your Uncle Lu. Some people want money. Some people want a name."

"So, you’re saying Luo Shen’s pretty smart."

Zhou Shan looked to the front. His eyes holding complicated emotions, Luo Shen? He had met her once, and he knew of the relationship between her and Bai Xue. What was more, Zhou Shan was also aware of Luo Shen’s feelings for Lu Yin. The woman was not doing this performance for fame, but purely because Earth was Lu Yin’s home planet, and she wanted to be closer to him.

In Zhou Shan’s eyes, Luo Shen was no different from a real G.o.ddess. She was so bright and beautiful and eye-catching, but unfortunately, Lu Yin's status was too high. He could have any woman he wished, and Zhou Shan did not see , and he could have any woman he wanted. Zhou Shan could not see a good end to Luo Shen waiting.

Luo Shen was the most dazzling star in the Outerverse at the moment, and a performance from her was able to cause a sensation in any weave, not to mention Earth.

Earth was too small, and the Jinlin stadium was so small that most people were not able to get tickets. Those who were able to buy tickets were either the Outerverse’s wealthy individuals, or people with a special status. Also, nearly half of the stadium had been set aside for Jinlin Military Academy’s students, and the students had not needed to buy any tickets. This performance was not intended to generate a profit.

Luo Shen had held many similar performances on Earth. She was truly persistent.

The old man followed the students all the way to the stadium, and then easily entered the building.

Lu Yin looked at the picture of Luo Shen in surprise. Why was she on Earth? She was going to dance? Was there anyone on Earth who could even afford a ticket? Was there any venue appropriate for such a performance?

Lu Yin was not unaware that every single one of Luo Shen’s performances in the Outerverse would attract a minimum of hundreds of millions of people to attend. Even on Zenyu Star, her performance would draw hundreds of thousands of people. There should not be anyone on Earth who could even afford a ticket to one of Luo Shen’s performances, and yet even students were walking into this stadium.

As these thoughts ran through Lu Yin’s mind, he easily entered the stadium, always keeping an eye on the old man.

Across the stadium, there was a young man who was wearing a hat and who had a straw in his mouth. He strolled into the stadium and stared up at the huge image of Luo Shen. He muttered something indistinct, "She really is beautiful. As expected of the brightest star in the Outerverse. Father, your son will bring you back a beautiful daughter-in-law."

The stadium was soon overcrowded, and the atmosphere reached its peak the moment that Luo Shen finally appeared. Everyone cheered.

She was an Outerverse idol, and her dances were able to brighten up the entire universe.
