Two hours passed quickly.
After bidding farewell to Ye Qin and Xingxuan, Li Wen appeared at the edge of Blue Star's atmosphere.
He took one last, deep look at the vibrant planet below.
His spiritual sense instantly locked onto the Wish Power clone keeping his parents company in the Li Manor in Changning City.
For a moment, their gazes seemed to meet across the vast distance, a silent exchange of promises and a shared resolve to protect.
The next moment, Li Wen lingered no longer. His form flickered as he shot through the atmosphere, transforming into a streak of light that rocketed toward the Starship.
A dozen or so seconds later, he reappeared inside the Starship's command cabin.
"Apologies for the wait, Deacon Leo," Li Wen said, thanking him sincerely once more.
"It's nothing." Leo waved his hand dismissively, as if he'd only been waiting long enough to drink a cup of tea. "Let's go. Destination—Alka Star."
