Nine Suns Supreme Chapter 144: Family (Part 1)

Seeing the white figure charging at him, Lin Xing immediately tensed up, ready to attack.

However, he quickly realized this was his own home, not some random place. Moreover, the pouncing white figure... Once Lin Xing got a clear look at it, he couldn't help but smile and spread his arms.

Seeing the white figure fiercely lunging toward them, Xiao Hei and Hei Hu immediately became alert, staring at the figure, ready to attack at the slightest sign of trouble.

Lin Xing raised his hand to stop Xiao Hei and Hei Hu's movements, saying, "It's okay, stand down."

The white figure instantly leaped into Lin Xing's embrace, hugging him tightly. "Brother, you're back? I'm so glad!" Lin Tian said excitedly.

Lin Xing hugged Lin Tian back, gave his cheek a pinch, and said, "Yes, I'm back. How have you been lately? Everything okay?" Lin Xing tried to contain his excitement, but his voice still trembled slightly.

The little guy was already eight years old. Unlike Lin Xing, who was an early bloomer, Lin Tian still seemed so adorable.

"Brother, are those two magical beasts your magical pets?" Lin Tian suddenly noticed Xiao Hei and Hei Hu behind Lin Xing and asked, wide-eyed.

"Yes, they are both my magical pets. This is Xiao Hei," Lin Xing introduced, pointing at him. "This one is called Hei Hu."

"Are they very powerful? Can they beat Bier's Swift Wind Wolf?" Lin Tian asked, his eyes wide.

"Hmph, a fifth-level magical beast like the Swift Wind Wolf? How can it compare to me?" Before Lin Xing could speak, Hei Hu's voice sounded in Lin Tian's mind.

"Eh? They can talk? That's great!" Lin Tian struggled out of Lin Xing's embrace and walked towards Xiao Hei and Hei Hu.

Lin Tian circled Xiao Hei and Hei Hu a few times, finally squatting in front of Hei Hu, looking at them curiously. "You can really talk?" His big, doubtful eyes looked at Hei Hu, full of disbelief.

"Of course, your Lord Hei Hu is not comparable to those low-level magical beasts," Hei Hu said, sneezing arrogantly.

"Wow, I've never seen a magical beast that can talk before. That's so strange. How can you talk? Brother, how can they talk?"

"Because they are high-level magical beasts, so they can talk," Lin Xing said casually, not knowing how else to explain.

"Oh, I see. So, Hei Hu, can you play with me?" Lin Tian blinked his cute big eyes, looking at Hei Hu.

"Lord Hei Hu doesn't play with little brats. Do you believe I'll eat you?" Hei Hu stared at Lin Tian, trying to scare him.

"You're so small, how could you eat me?" Lin Tian's eyes were full of confusion.

"I can transform. Believe it or not?" Hei Hu widened his eyes, looking at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian shook his head. "Will you play with me? I've never played with a magical beast that can talk before." Seems like Lin Tian was treating Hei Hu as a toy.

Just then, another group of people came into view. Lin Xing looked and saw it was the four Lin brothers.

Lin Feng and the other three rushed over quickly. "Boss, when did you get back? You didn't even notify us so we could come welcome you," said Lin Yun, the one with fiery red hair. Suddenly, Lin Xing pushed off with his foot, a black shadow flashed, and his whole body lunged forward, his right hand forming a fist as he struck down towards the four of them.

His fist created a series of afterimages, simultaneously enveloping all four.

"Defend yourselves with everything you've got!" Lin Xing shouted coldly.

The four of them looked gravely at Lin Xing's fist, feeling the immense power. They all shouted, attacking Lin Xing with either fists or palms.

Attack is the best defense!

Lin Feng's attack was the fastest, his fist already whistling towards Lin Xing's face. Lin Yun's attack seemed a bit slower but was imbued with fire energy. Lin Lei and Lin Dian's attacks were the most peculiar; both their Cultivation Methods were of the thunder attribute. Lin Dian's fist actually contained faint threads of electric light. Although very weak now, if it grew stronger in the future, his potential would be limitless. Lin Xing chuckled lightly, his right hand deflecting and redirecting, dispersing their force. He then took a step back and laughed heartily, "It's been so many years, but it seems you haven't neglected your training." He took a closer look at their cultivation levels; they had all reached the fourth layer of their cultivation. Although they had just entered it, their current speed was already very fast. Lin Dian had even stepped into the fifth layer.

"Lin Dian, impressive, having already entered the fifth layer," Lin Xing praised. "You guys are also good. I believe among people of the same age, you can be considered strong," Lin Xing said with a smile.

The four of them smiled modestly. "But compared to you, Young Master, we are still far behind," Lin Yun said with a wide grin.

"Of course, what do you expect? He's my brother!"

It was Lin Tian. Lin Xing turned his head and saw that Lin Tian was now riding Hei Hu. Hei Hu had grown slightly larger, just enough for Lin Tian to ride comfortably. In this short time, the little guy Lin Tian had somehow convinced Hei Hu to become his mount.

Seeing Lin Xing staring at him dumbfounded, Lin Tian patted his chest and said, "Brother, from now on, Hei Hu is my mount. Don't you dare take him!"

He paused, then continued, "Brother, am I awesome?" Lin Xing nodded. To this moment, he still didn't understand what method Lin Tian had used to convince Hei Hu. Logically, Hei Hu was a ninth-level magical beast and incredibly proud. Even he himself had only subdued Hei Hu back then by relying on his own strength.

But Lin Tian had convinced Hei Hu in a flash, and it seemed Hei Hu was willingly serving as his mount.

"Lin Tian, how did you convince this Hei Hu?" Lin Xing couldn't help but ask.

Lin Tian winked at Lin Xing and said with a giggle, "It's a secret." Lin Xing rolled his eyes.

"Alright, I'm going to see Grandpa and the others now. Are you coming?" Lin Xing could hardly wait to see the old man and the others.

He hurried to the entrance of the living room but hadn't entered yet when he heard his grandmother's voice from inside. "Didn't they say Xing'er was coming back? Why is it taking him so long to get here?"

"Old woman, stop pacing back and forth. Xing'er is already back. It's been five years since we last saw him. Can't you wait a little longer now? Really, you're making me dizzy with all this turning," came his grandfather's voice.

"Maybe I should go take a look," Yana's voice sounded.

Hearing these voices he had longed to hear day and night, Lin Xing could no longer contain his excitement. He quickened his pace and stepped into the living room.
