2625 The Return Of The Lord 4 (1/2)

Once Gu Xijiu was done with the soldiers, the people of the Starry Crescent Land all ran forward and knelt before her. By that time, they were all weeping uncontrollably.

From that simple act alone, Gu Xijiu could clearly tell the suffering that they must have gone through while she was away. The tragic sight pained her. Perhaps, if she had returned within the given time that she was supposed to, the place would not be doomed with this unfortunate incident.

She took a deep breath before making an announcement, ”Yes, I am back. I will ask those foreigners to compensate you for all the pain that you have gone through, and I will bring peace back to land.” As soon as she was finished, she turned around and returned to the warplane.

In just that brief moment, the news of the return of the Lord was widespread to every corner of Starry Crescent Land. The news had certainly come as a comfort to the brave souls who were still fighting valiantly to protect their land. They were tired and in despair after holding on for so long, but the news came as a powerful boost to their motivation. Their fighting spirit had returned once more.

”The Lord is back, and we shall be saved,” they thought. The people of the Starry Crescent Land were hopeful again.

…

The admiral's display was still active in the cabin. He looked at her sternly in the eye and said, ”How did you know how to use our weapons? Are you one of us?”

Gu Xijiu did not answer his question, but instead, took full control over the warplane and slowly raised it into the air.

”You are not from earth, are you? You are only pretending to be one of them,” she challenged.

”Don't we look like humans from earth?” He seemed to have been caught a little surprise.

”You do look like one, but perhaps you were not born to be one. I can tell that you have spent some time on earth before, but the way you behave is unlike us.”

”How can you know?” The admiral was curious.
