Upon hearing this, a look of sorrow flickered in his parents' eyes. Li Ming didn't say much more, chatting for a while with Xiao Hu before heading home.
"I'm home."
Teacher Deng Yu was already waiting at the door to greet him. Seeing his return, she greeted him with a smile, carefully helping him remove his armor for cleaning.
In truth, the armor wasn't very dirty, just a bit dusty. Li Ming's water-based powers meant he could wash off any major mess using his magic, so cleaning the armor was no heavy task. He let her carry on.
News regarding Li Ming was disseminated by the various residents being brought back from the surrounding fourteen counties. So, there weren't any special worries-pr seeing him return, they just grew a little happier.
The women at home were all fresh and clean. Li Ming took a quick shower before he cheerfully sought out Teacher Zhang.
