Nine Suns Supreme Chapter 143: Home, I’m Back

*Nine Suns Supreme* Chapter 143: Home, I'm Back

"No, let's go home first." Lin Xing raised his head. Although he hadn't seen Caroline this time and felt deeply disappointed, with a lingering sense of loss, now that he knew Caroline was at Half-Moon Academy, she wasn't going anywhere anytime soon. Besides, graduating from Half-Moon Academy isn't that easy; it takes at least a few years to do so successfully.

"We'll go to Half-Moon Academy later. For now, let's go home first. I can hardly wait."

Several months later, they stood at the gates of Tianjing City.

"Boss, is this where your home is? This is Tianjing City? It's so big, so magnificent!" Hei Hu, like a villager seeing the city for the first time, couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the grand Tianjing City. "Yes, this is Tianjing City, the capital of our Huaxia Empire! It's also one of the largest and most prosperous cities on the continent," Lin Xing said proudly. By now, Lin Xing had completely come to regard this place as his home.

"It must be very lively inside, right?" Hei Hu's eyes lit up.

"Boss, let's go in," Hei Hu urged, seeing Lin Xing hesitate at the entrance. "Boss, you're not getting cold feet, are you?" Hei Hu teased.

"Yeah, before returning, I was very eager. But now that I'm almost home, although that eagerness is still strong, there's another feeling mixed in—that nervousness you feel when returning home."

Hei Hu shook his head. "Why complicate things? Since we're already back, let's just go in quickly."

"You're right. Since we're back, we should hurry home. It's been so many years since I last returned. I really miss it."

"Let's go, into the city."

Just past the city gate, looking at the two thick doors, Hei Hu had a sudden, crazy idea and said to Lin Xing, "Boss, do you think I could shatter this city gate with one palm strike?"

Lin Xing, annoyed, kicked Hei Hu, sending him tumbling head over heels. "Feel free to try, but if you end up dead, don't blame anyone else."

Lin Xing now had a deeper understanding of the continent. The entire Tianjing City was undoubtedly guarded by reclusive powerhouses. If Hei Hu tried to destroy the city gate, the loud noise would surely attract the attention of these experts. They would likely assume Hei Hu was a saboteur and wouldn't hesitate to eliminate him. Hei Hu stuck out his tongue and fell silent. With his strength as a Ninth-level Magical Beast, he honestly had no confidence in escaping with his life here. It was better to behave like a well-mannered kitten and enjoy the pleasures of the human world.

Thinking of all the delicious food, Hei Hu's mouth watered, and drool dripped from the corner of his mouth.

Soon, they finally arrived at the entrance of his home. Looking at the place where he had lived for ten years, Lin Xing felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity and warmth. Gazing at the four imposing characters "Right Chancellor's Residence" hanging above the main gate, Lin Xing couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. He was back. He had finally returned. After five years, five years away from home, he had finally come back today.

Lin Xing was so excited that his body trembled. With his two pets, he walked toward the entrance.

The guards at the entrance were still the same ones from years ago. At that moment, they were watching this strange man with two magical beasts.

This man's behavior was very odd; he seemed extremely agitated looking at the entrance. As Lin Xing approached with his two magical beasts, the two guards at the door tightened their grip on their weapons, watching the newcomer warily.

This man's actions were so strange; he might very well be someone here to cause trouble, one guard thought. However, why did this person look more and more familiar the longer he looked?

Lin Xing slowly approached. The closer he got to the entrance, the more excited he became! His eyes gradually grew misty.

"It's the young master! The eldest young master is back!" One of the guards at the entrance finally realized that this familiar-looking man was their eldest young master. He couldn't help but shout excitedly. As for this young master, because Lin Xing treated everyone in the Lin residence very well, he was deeply liked and cherished by everyone in the Lin family, from top to bottom. Now that the young master, who had been away for five years, had returned, it was no wonder they were so excited.

In five years, Lin Xing had grown from a ten-year-old to a fifteen-year-old, transforming from a child into a dashing young man. His appearance had changed somewhat from before. The once childish face now showed a hint of maturity. There was also the change in his demeanor and aura. No wonder the guards found Lin Xing familiar but couldn't place him immediately.

"Young master, you're back?" The two guards ran down the steps and came straight to Lin Xing, speaking to him excitedly.

"Yes, brothers, I'm back. Thank you for your hard work," Lin Xing replied, also moved. These two had been working at his home since he was a child. "It's no trouble at all. Young master, you should go in first. The master and the others have been missing you terribly," one guard said.

Lin Xing nodded. "Thank you for your hard work. I'll go in now." With that, his figure flashed as he entered the gate. The two magical beasts also flashed and followed him in, leaving the two guards behind. "The young master has become even more formidable," the two guards said, still somewhat excited.

Entering the residence, looking at the familiar plants and surroundings, Lin Xing's face showed his emotion. By now, the news of Lin Xing's return had already spread throughout the residence.

Lin Xing headed straight for the main hall. He knew that if his grandparents and mother learned of his return, they would surely be waiting for him in the main hall. So, Lin Xing hurried toward the hall.

Along the way, he encountered many people. Lin Xing politely smiled and greeted them all. The two magical beasts following behind were chatting: "I say, Boss Xiao Hei, look at our master. He's quite popular, isn't he? Those people all seem very happy about his return."

"Of course. Just look at Lin Xing's character—such a good-natured person. But that's only toward his family. I hear that guy is ruthless toward his enemies. I heard you were badly beaten by him back then," Xiao Hei teased.

"Ah, don't bring that up," Hei Hu said gloomily. "Boss is practically a freak. When I first met him, I was toying with him in fights. But after just a few battles with him, he surpassed me. Every time after a fight, he improved so quickly..." Hei Hu said dejectedly.

Just as Lin Xing was walking around a corner, he suddenly heard a loud shout. Glancing over, he saw a white figure rushing toward him.
