Monster Paradise

Having completed the refinement and fusion of the Gravel World and temporarily relieved the threat from the Hall of Ten Thousand Tribes, Lin Huang began to think about returning to the Great World.

However, before that, he was going to accompany Lin Xin for a while, after all, counting the time spent in closed-door, they hadn't seen each other for almost a year and a half.

In fact, it was also a chance to take a vacation and relax by the way.

For the past year and a half, he had spent most of his time running around, cultivating and improving his strength. Due to the crisis in the gritty world, his spirit had been tense almost all the time. Now, he could finally slow down a bit.

Early this morning, Lin Huang pulled Lin Xin to the Fat Sister-in-Law's dunking early in the morning.

It was now the end of October, and the weather was getting cooler as the late autumn was about to pass in Human Imperial City.

This change in temperature had little effect on the cultivators though, but ordinary people had already changed into heavy coats.

The tables and chairs placed at the front of the shop by the Fat Sister's family had also been retrieved inside, leaving only two empty tables in the shop. After all, food like dunked dumplings had to be eaten while they were hot, and they wouldn't taste good if they were cold.

Lin Huang and Lin Xin entered the shop and immediately chose an empty table to sit down.

"Brother, you dragged me up early in the morning just to eat a bun?" Although Lin Xin liked to eat the dunking buns from Fat Sister-in-Law's house, she didn't like to get up early.

Especially after graduating from the Martial Arts Hunting Academy, she basically arranged her own schedule and would usually sleep until nine in the morning. After moving to the Human Imperial City, this routine was even more of a habit, and no one in the imperial dynasty would dare to disturb her from rotting in bed.

"Isn't this just idle? It must be almost a year and a half since we haven't had a good chat." Lin Huang laughed.

"Yeah, a year and a half." Lin Xin was also quite saddened.

She still remembered how uncomfortable she was the year Lin Huang went to the big world. Even though Lin Huang was often away from home before that, at least he was able to contact her at any time using the Emperor's Heart Ring. It was not uncommon to send a message, or make a direct video call. But the year Lin Huang went to the Great World, a whole year without any news, the feeling was naturally not the same.

"The Gravel World you should have traveled to quite a few places by now, is there anywhere that you wanted to go but never did?" Lin Huang asked with a smile.

"You want to go on a tour?" Lin Xin was slightly surprised, she rarely saw Lin Huang who wasn't busy.

"It's hard to have time to rest and take a break." Lin Huang nodded his head.

Lin Xin couldn't help but hear it, "It's rare to see you so tired and lazy."

"The crisis in the Gravel World has been lifted, and I don't have a way to improve my battle strength here. The period of time before returning to the Great World is just a vacation." Lin Huang clasped his hands behind his head and leaned against the back of the chair as he explained with a smile.

"Moreover, you've been promoted to the Nine Revolutions Void God in one breath, so it's not a good idea to promote to the True God Realm in a short period of time. Familiarize yourself with the use of divine energy in the Nine Revolutions Void God Realm first," Lin Huang added.

"emm...... Compared to this reason, I think it's more because someone is worried that my battle level is too high and will leave him far behind." Lin Xin laughed and teased.

"What's there to be proud of? I want to have that physique of yours, not to mention being promoted to Lord God, but now I've at least been promoted to Heavenly God Realm." Lin Huang trailed off, "Besides, battle power is all imaginary, strength is real. It's not something to brag about that you, a nine-turn Void God, can't even beat me, a six-turn Void God."

"Who wants to compete with you?!" Lin Xin had already witnessed Lin Huang's strength on the battlefield, and she felt that her brother was completely out of the normal range of comparison.

"Alright, let's not talk about that. You give me the places you're going to visit in the next two days, I still have to spend time making strategies." Lin Huang changed the topic back again.

"Don't bother. I've already made a list and the strategy is all done." Lin Xin said and popped up a document.

Lin Huang set his eyes on it and it was indeed clearly listed, with over thirty places in it.

"Let's pick out the ones you want to go to the most first, and we'll spend two months walking around. The rest of them will wait until the next time we are free." Lin Huang didn't want tourism to be a cakewalk.

If a place was fun, he didn't mind staying for a month, and at his ideal pace, more than thirty tourist spots in two months would definitely be too much to walk around.

"Alright ......" Lin Xin was a little reluctant but knew that it was already not easy for Lin Huang to spare two months.

"It should have started snowing in Winterfell City by now ......" Lin Xin looked up at the clear sky outside the shop, "My first stop was supposed to be back in Winterfell City, but Little Xuan is closed."

"It shouldn't take him too long to close down this time, two months is enough for us to put Winterfell on our last stop." Lin Huang knew that Lin Xin was trying to relive the scene of the three of them together four years ago.

"Then let's make our first stop, back to Ulin Town." Lin Xin suggested.

"Ulin Town, then." Lin Huang was stunned at the words, but immediately nodded in agreement to the proposal.

The 7D101 stronghold, Ulin Town, was the first place he crossed into this world, and it was also the place where Lin Huang's predecessor and Lin Xin had grown up together.

Although it was a barren and almost non-touristy small D-class stronghold, it held many of Lin Huang's and Lin Xin's early childhood memories.

Lin Xin's desire to come back for a visit was completely understandable to Lin Huang.

"I don't know what has become of Ulin Town now ......" muttered Lin Xin in a low voice.

"After breakfast, we'll leave!" As Lin Huang's voice trailed off, Fatty just happened to laughingly bring over two drawers of buns.

After ten minutes or so, the siblings finished their breakfast.

After buying the bill and coming out of the shop, Lin Huang looked down at the time, it was not even 7:30. He turned his head to look at Lin Xin again, "Do you have anything else to prepare, or are you just leaving?"

"Let's just go!" Lin Xin also took a glance at the time, a faint smile raised on her face, "In the past, it was almost the time I left for school at this time."

Lin Huang waved his hand and a black vortex-like teleportation portal appeared in front of him.

"This?" Lin Xin looked stunned, but of course she knew it wasn't a portal.

"I'll explain it to you later." Lin Huang said and pulled Lin Xin to step into the vortex.

In the next instant, the two of them appeared directly in front of the house where the siblings lived at the very beginning in Ulin Town.

With the house number 23, the walls on both sides of the three-story villa were crawling with vines, and one could still see the semi-open garden on the roof, which had been completely covered with plants.

"Go in and take a look?" Lin Huang said, walking over to the house first.

After entering the password at the door, he heard a "drop" sound and the door was unlocked.

He originally thought that the password was already not easy to use and he was even ready to push the door open by force, but this time it was obviously not necessary.

Pushing the door open, the siblings stepped forward one after the other.

"Nothing seems to have changed too much." Lin Xin sounded somewhat relieved.

The interior of the house was obviously still the same layout as it had been when they left, even the sofa, the carpet and the dining room table and chairs.

The only thing that had changed was the number of mushrooms growing on the floor. Other than that, all the furniture was covered in a thick layer of dust, and the air smelled faintly of mold.
