Chapter 1257: My Daughter
At the Planet Lanjiang, ‘My Daughter’ restaurant.
Merlin and Zhu Hong Lian were cooking in the kitchen when Lu Ze suddenly appeared behind them.
The two suddenly turned around with a serious face.
When they saw it was Lu Ze, they relaxed.
Zhu Hong Lian smiled. “Ze, you guys are back?”
Merlin looked around and didn’t see Alice. He raised a brow. “Where is Alice?”
Lu Ze smiled. “Uncle Merlin and Aunty Hong Lian, I’ll take you guys to a place. There’s a surprise waiting for you.”
The couple was dazed, but before they could talk, Lu Ze took them away.
Planet Jinyao.
Lu Ze appeared with Merlin and Zhu Hong Lian.
When the two saw the familiar wooden shack, they were stunned.
“Elder Nangong’s home?”
Merlin glared at Lu Ze. “Why did you bring us here kid? We still need to cook.”
Lu Ze smiled and said nothing.
Alice smiled. “Senior brought my mom and dad here.”
She ran outside.
Red Flame Saint heard this and got up with surprise and a complicated feeling.
Merlin was looking at Lu Ze with annoyance when Alice ran out.
“Dad, Mom, you guys are here!”
Immediately, Merlin’s face changed. He smiled brightly at Alice. “Oh, my good daughter. Let me look. You have gotten skinny…”
Before he could finish, his smile froze as his eyes widened. He looked at the figure walking out behind Alice.
Zhu Hong Lian also was shocked.
Red Flame Saint smiled. “Hong Lian, you’ve woken up. It’s been hard for you these past few years.”
Zhu Hong Lian shook her head. “No, Alice had it the hardest. This is what I should be doing as a mother.”
She looked at Lu Ze softly. “This is all thanks to Ze.”
Otherwise, she and Alice wouldn’t have lasted until Red Flame Saint came back.
Merlin smiled. “Dad, you’re back.”
Red Flame Saint smiled and nodded “This is all thanks to Ze.”
The couple was dumbfounded and looked at Lu Ze.
What did this have to do with him?
Red Flame Saint smiled. “Come in.”
…
Alice told the couple what happened.
When they heard that Red Flame Saint and the others were almost dead while Nangong Lin was almost sold off as a slave, their chi surged.
“d.a.m.n it! How dare they abuse our race like that!”
Their chi both reached the cosmic cloud state.
Red Flame Saint was shocked upon sensing their chi, but then, he said, “So, even you two have reached the cosmic cloud state?”
Elder Nangong grinned. “Good thing Little Lin isn’t here. Otherwise, he would be feeling annoyed.”
After all, Nangong Lin was the strongest in his generation.
Now, Zuoqiu Xunshuang, Merlin, and Zhu Hong Lian had all surpa.s.sed him.
How could he be happy?
The group had been separated for so long. They had so many things to talk about.
While they were chatting, Xu Bingbai and Lin Dong also came.
Lu Ze and the girls saw how happy they were and didn’t disturb them.
They went back to Planet Lanjiang.
As soon as Lu Ze and the girls appeared at his house, two figures appeared at the door. It was Lu Wen and Fu Shuya.
The couple rejoiced.
“Good boy! You guys are back indeed. I sensed your chi as soon as you came back!”
Lu Ze and the girls nodded quickly.
Qiuyue Hesha smiled. “Mom is amazing indeed!”
Fu Shuya felt great hearing this.
Lu Ze sensed their cultivation level. The two of them were cosmic system states. They weren’t far from the cosmic cloud state.
He felt quite happy.
At this time, Fu Shuya smiled and said, “Old Lu, hurry up and notify Brother Merlin and Sister Hong Lian. We have to cook them something good.”
Lu Wen nodded.
Lu Ze quickly interrupted. “No need, Dad. Uncle Merlin and Aunty Hong Lian are here with the elders.”
Alice giggled. “Yes, my grandpa came back with us, so my parents went over.”
Lu Wen rejoiced. “Red Flame Saint is back? That’s great.”
Fu Shuya smiled too.
They grew up listening to the stories of the Human Race Saints.
Fu Shuya smiled. “In that case, I’ll personally cook something good for you guys!”
Alice giggled. “Then, I’ll be your a.s.sistant.”
Lin Ling said, “Me too.”
Lu Li nodded as well.
What shocked Lu Ze was that even Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha who were usually lazy were keen. “We’ll come and help too.”
Lu Ze looked at the two. Would their cooking even be edible?
The group went into the kitchen, but soon, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were kicked out.
They seemed to be hurt.
Lu Ze was chatting with Lu Wen. Lu Wen asked him about his experiences outside.
Lu Ze just told him something that wasn’t too dangerous.
Soon, dinner was ready.
They were just ordinary food and didn’t even glow, but Lu Ze and the girls enjoyed it a lot.
To Lu Ze, this was the taste of his memory.
After dinner, Fu Shuya asked them about their experiences outside.
Lu Ze recounted this again.
Only late at night did Fu Shuya and Lu Wen let them go.
…
Two days later, Lu Ze and the girls stood before Elder Nangong’s shack. All the saints were there.
Their faces were covered in smiles.
They had spent these few days catching up.
Lu Ze and the girls didn’t even cultivate these few days. They needed a break.
Elder Nangong smiled. “Ze, you guys must’ve gained a lot this time?”
Red Flame Saint mentioned some as they were chatting.
Lu Ze smiled and nodded. “Quite a lot, indeed.”
He threw out a few hundred storage rings.
They were from the enemies he killed or the business he acquired.
Elder Nangong and the rest were stunned. “They’re all your loot?”
Lu Ze nodded. “Yes, Elders, have a look and decide how to distribute the things inside.”
Lu Ze and the girls didn’t need what was inside after all.
The elders looked at each other and took out the storage rings to check.
