#134 - Chapter 134 Homecoming and Promise
Inside the speeding car, Wu Wei looked out the window.
He had to admit, after becoming the Heavenly Dao System in the Lord Era, everything in the real world had become quite beautiful.
"Oh right, Wu Wei, I heard that you, this brat, defeated Xue'er in the Lord Assessment at Linjiang City No. 1 High School this time, taking first place. Awesome!"
While driving, Su Li exclaimed.
"Tell your sister, did you hang Xue'er up and beat her?"
"Uh..."
Faced with this question, Wu Wei didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"No, no, no, actually, that's not what I'm concerned about."
"What I really want to know is, did you use your personal charm to conquer her fiercely...?"
Okay, hearing this, Wu Wei finally couldn't help but narrow his eyes, looking at the female rogue beside him who was driving in every sense of the word.
He had to say, she was indeed a bit wild as a driver.
"Hehehe, why are you looking at me like that, making me seem so improper."
"Of course, I'm just asking, I'm a person who respects other people's privacy."
"If you don't want to say, then I'll ask again next time."
Wu Wei: "..."
——————————————
Su Yingxue's home wasn't too far from the school. After driving for less than twenty minutes, Wu Wei, led by Su Li, arrived at a villa located in the center of an artificial lake.
And this villa, besides being the residence of Su Yingxue's family, was also the real-world base of Su Yingxue's father's guild.
In the center of the artificial lake, besides this huge villa, there were also other slightly smaller buildings.
The guild members of the guild lived in the other buildings.
As for the name of Su Yingxue's father's guild, it was somewhat special.
Because the name of this guild was [Su Family Guild].
The reason for such a name was that Su Yingxue's family didn't yet count as a family in the Lord Era.
And the qualifications for families in the entire Lord Era were limited.
So, lacking the qualifications, they could only choose to use the guild function as a substitute for now, taking such a unique guild name.
But even so, out of confidence in their strength, Su Yingxue's family still chose to use the Su family name in the guild name.
It seemed they were very confident that they would become a real family soon.
However, these things weren't Wu Wei's concern yet.
The car slowly stopped, and Wu Wei got out of the car.
The entire lake center seemed empty at this time, with not many people and not much sign of life.
But this was normal, because the vast majority of lords were fighting in the Lord Era most of the time.
Busy, they rarely had time to return to the real world to relax.
Even if they did return, these busy lords basically came back to handle certain real-world affairs.
"Wu Wei, you're back?"
At the entrance of the villa, Su Yingxue, dressed in white, opened the door and said with a smile.
"I was just about to come out for some fresh air, but you arrived."
Wu Wei raised his head and looked at this villa that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
The reason it was familiar was because Wu Wei lived in this villa after his parents disappeared and he became an orphan.
And the reason it was unfamiliar was because four years ago, when he was fourteen, Wu Wei moved out of the villa and rented a house near the school.
He hadn't been back for four whole years.
And here, there were his few childhood memories.
"Yeah, I'm back."
Hearing this familiar sentence, Su Yingxue smiled very happily.
"Okay, I'm almost done cooking. Take a break and get ready for dinner."
"Just like usual."
————————————————
Walking into the house, Wu Wei first returned to his previous room.
Sure enough, everything looked the same.
Because the room was regularly cleaned by servants, many places were very clean.
Wu Wei placed his personal terminal on the table and lay down on the bed he hadn't seen in a long time.
At this time, his mood was a bit complicated.
The real world was not like the Lord Era. Here, although there was no obvious killing and war,
But the stability here made Wu Wei, who was already accustomed to killing, feel uncomfortable.
Maybe...
This would be his last return to the real world?
Would he also be like some special lords, staying in the Lord Era for the rest of his life, with no more attachments to the real world?
But before he could sort out his feelings, after a knock on the door, a voice appeared outside Wu Wei's room.
"Is it convenient for me to come in?"
"Yeah, you can."
Wu Wei replied and sat up from the bed.
A burly middle-aged man walked in from outside.
He looked ordinary, and wasn't very tall, but he could invisibly give people a sense of unquestionable authority, and this authority and domineering aura came from his long-term training in the Lord Era.
And he was the owner of the Su Family Guild, Su Yingxue's father, Su Yuanzheng!
"Long time no see, little Wu Wei, you've grown up a lot."
"Uncle Su."
Wu Wei nodded.
"Long time no see."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Su Yuanzheng said.
"Congratulations, kid, you've completed the Lord Trial and become a new lord."
"This means a lot of things, but I don't think I need to repeat them."
"After all, what you want to know most is definitely...."
Su Yuanzheng looked at Wu Wei with a complicated expression.
"The truth about your parents' disappearance back then, right!"
"Just like I promised back then, after you become a lord, I'll tell you everything I know."
