Cheng Mo was anxiously wandering at the door of his house, looking into the distance from time to time, his eyes full of anxiety and worry. Time passed by, night gradually fell, and it was pitch black all around, but Ban Mu still hadn't returned.

Finally, in the dead of night, a familiar figure appeared in sight - it was Ban Mu! He walked slowly towards him with heavy and exhausted steps. Cheng Mo hurried over, tightly held Ban Mu's hand, and looked at him carefully. When he saw that there was nothing unusual on Ban Mu's face except tiredness, the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"Banmu!" Cheng Mo called softly, his eyes full of concern, "You're finally back! We were so worried!"

Banmu smiled apologetically: "Xiaomo, I'm so sorry for making you worry. I got home so late... Have you all eaten?"

Cheng Mo nodded and said that he had already eaten, but there was still warm dinner in the pot for Ban Mu. Before he finished speaking, he turned and walked into the kitchen to prepare to bring out the meal.

At this time, Cheng Lingqu, who was originally sleeping soundly on the table, was awakened by the noise. He raised his head in a daze, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked puzzledly: "Father? Are you back?" Looking at Ban Mu who looked a little tired in front of him, the little guy was still a little sleepy.

"Well, it's Daddy who's back. It's windy outside. Come inside and take a nap." Banmu gently stroked Cheng Lingqu's head and said softly. At the same time, he picked up Gua Yan, who was curled up in Cheng Lingqu's hair and sleeping, and put him on her bed. Gua Yan, who was sleeping peacefully, didn't feel like being picked up at all and continued to sleep soundly.

Cheng Lingqu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but his chaotic mind made him completely forget what he wanted to say. He could only nod his head a few times in a daze, and then staggered back to the room.

When Ban Mu entered the house, Cheng Mo was walking towards him with a pair of bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and whispered, "Let's eat something first." Ban Mu nodded slightly and then began to sweep the food on the table like a whirlwind. Cheng Mo watched the scene in front of him silently, with many doubts in his heart, but in the end he couldn't say it out loud.

After Banmu finished his meal, he quickly tidied the table. Then Cheng Mo pulled Banmu to sit down together and asked, "What did you do today?" Banmu answered honestly, "That person asked me to join the army."

"What...what?!!!" Cheng Mo stared at Ban Mu with suspicion, obviously confused by the word "join the army".

Ban Mu seemed quite tired. He suddenly reached out his hands and hugged Cheng Mo tightly, muttering with a slightly aggrieved tone: "He said that I had no discipline at all, and that what I saw and heard was too narrow. Then he took me to a weird place. There were many people there, and they all called me a 'new recruit'..."

Cheng Mo gently patted Banmu's back, and became more and more confused: Where on earth did Banmu go? The term "recruit" does not appear in this orc world!

Ban Mu rubbed his cheek against Cheng Mo's forehead affectionately, and then confided: "The room there is also very strange! I devoted myself to studying weapons and practicing martial arts in there. I clearly remember that I had spent five years there, but when I returned home, it felt like only one day had passed. And that person said that from now on I must study in that place. It is specially for my training, and it will not end until I have learned real kung fu in there! Xiaomo, I will definitely work hard to become stronger and protect you!"

"Idiot!" Cheng Mo raised his hands, held Ban Mu's face tightly, and said, "You are very good! You don't need to go there for training, you just follow me to protect me! Don't go there tomorrow. If that person asks you to go there, tell me and I will talk to him! If he disagrees, then I will go there with you to take a look!"

"No!" Ban Mu instantly became alert. He held Cheng Mo's hand tightly and refused firmly: "That place is not a fun place. You are so thin. You will be skinned if you go in!"

Cheng Mo was so angry that he pulled his hand out, then pinched the flesh on Ban Mu's cheeks and threatened: "Say it again?! Who is thin and weak!"

Banmu immediately softened his voice and begged for mercy, "I! I'm weak! But Xiaomo, you really can't go there! There are people there who will whip you with whips! Do you know what a whip is? It's the kind that's long and has thorns on it! It hurts so much!"

Cheng Mo sighed. How could he not know? The more Ban Mu described, the more Cheng Mo felt that the place Ban Mu went to was very similar to the world he came from. Cheng Mo had never dared to tell Ban Mu his identity. He did not dare to do so before, but later he felt that it was unnecessary. He could not go back anyway, so what difference did it make whether he told it or not? But now, he decided to tell Ban Mu about his secret...

"Ban Mu, I'm going to tell you something next. You may find it outrageous, but what I say is true!" Cheng Mo stared into Ban Mu's eyes and said seriously.

Realizing that what Cheng Mo was going to say next was something very important, Ban Mu couldn't help but straighten his back and pretend to listen attentively.

"I'm not from your side, I come from a faraway place..." As Cheng Mo continued to tell the story, Ban Mu finally learned the secret about Cheng Mo.

After hearing what Cheng Mo said, Ban Mu was silent for a long time. Cheng Mo looked at Ban Mu nervously, afraid that Ban Mu would look at him with strange eyes. After all, the saying "Those who are not of my race must have different hearts" is not groundless.

"So, will Xiaomo leave? Leave me and go back to your own homeland..." Banmu raised his head, his face full of fear. He had previously guessed that Cheng Mo must have come from a very powerful tribe, and he worked hard to become stronger just to protect Cheng Mo and follow Cheng Mo. But now, he realized that the place where Cheng Mo came from was indeed powerful, so powerful that he could never reach it in his lifetime.

"Ban Mu! You are my lover, my lifelong partner! I will not leave you! If one day you don't want me anymore..." Cheng Mo was interrupted by Ban Mu before he could finish his words.

"I won't give up on you!" Ban Mu said seriously. He hugged Cheng Mo tightly, and he wanted to embed Cheng Mo into his body with such force. "I want to be with you forever! Always and forever! Even the Beast God can't separate us!"

Even the Beast God was brought out. It seemed that Banmu was really unwilling to be separated from Cheng Mo. Cheng Mo leaned in Banmu's arms at ease, quietly listening to Banmu's heartbeat, and then his consciousness gradually blurred...
