Traveling to the future, the story with the orc king

At night, in a small courtyard in the Lin Mansion in Lincheng, moonlight streamed down like water, illuminating everything with an exceptional tranquility. Lin Ziyu sat quietly in the center of the courtyard, his eyes gazing at the bright moon hanging in the sky, a bit hazy, as if he were lost in thought. Xiao Sen stood quietly beside him.

Since parting with Long Yan last time, Lin Ziyu has immersed himself in cultivation and alchemy, trying to use busyness to forget the longing in his heart. However, when he heard his grandfather say that this time the alchemist competition would be held in the Orc tribe, Long Yan's figure once again appeared in his mind, lingering.

Lin Ziyu sighed and shook his head helplessly. He knew that even though he had been trying hard to forget Long Yan, his heart could never calm down. He couldn't help but think of the time they spent together, and those beautiful memories flooded into his heart like a tide, making him feel extremely warm.

"Perhaps, I should go see him..." Lin Ziyu whispered to himself. He knew that this meant he would have to face many difficulties and challenges, but deep in his heart there was a voice telling him that this was something he had to do.

Lin Ziyu stood up, took a deep breath, and slowly closed his eyes. He began to adjust his breathing, letting his mind gradually calm down. Lin Ziyu's mouth curled up slightly, muttering to himself: "Forget it, since I can't forget him, then he can only be mine, Lin Ziyu. Long Yan is waiting for me..."

"Xiao Sen, remind me tomorrow to tell Grandpa Wu that I'm going to participate in the alchemist competition." Lin Ziyu said to the robot Xiao Sen beside him. After saying that, Lin Ziyu went back to his room to rest.

Xiao Sen replied, "Okay, young master." He followed Lin Ziyu into the room and stood quietly aside.

Orc Royal City

Ever since returning that day, Long Yan had been working non-stop. As one of the coordinators for the Alchemist Competition, he was responsible for coordinating and overseeing all preparations. Every day, he faced countless trivial tasks and details, from venue setup to security and accommodations for the contestants.

After a busy day at work, Long Yan returned to the Prince's Mansion by carriage. He sat calmly in the carriage, admiring the scenery outside the window. The carriage traveled quickly and soon arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

Long Yan got off the carriage and was about to enter the mansion when Long Bai, the steward of the Prince's Mansion, came up to him and saluted him respectfully, saying, "Your Highness, there is news from the human race Lin Cheng."

Long Yan was slightly startled, and thought of Ziyu. Was there any news about him? He wondered how he was doing now, was he still angry? Then he asked, "What news?"

Long Bai hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Your Highness, it's Long Yue's message. She asked Your Highness if she could come back since Young Master Ziyu hasn't been to the academy for a long time."

After hearing Long Mo's words, Long Yan was silent for a moment. "Is it because you left that you're not going to the academy? Lin Ziyu, what do you think? No matter what you think, the next time we meet... I won't let you go." His eyes became firm and resolute. He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Tell Long Yue that if Ziyu doesn't come, she doesn't have to come back." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation, his steps firm and powerful.

"Yes, Your Highness," Long Mo whispered back. He watched Long Yan's receding figure, a complex wave of emotions welling up in his heart. Then, he turned his head, his gaze landing on Long Si, who was standing nearby. He pulled him aside and asked, "Fourth Brother, tell me, why didn't Long Yue come back with you? Who is Young Master Zi Yu?" He had many questions when he first saw the news.

Long Si was slightly startled, then smiled and said softly, "Second brother, Master Ziyu is His Highness's companion! Isn't Long Yue's cooking particularly delicious, so His Highness asked her to stay and cook."

Long Mo frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with Long Si's answer. "Long Si, what is the identity of this Young Master Ziyu?"

Long Si replied, "Second brother, Master Ziyu is the grandson of the Lin family of the human race. He is eighteen years old, extremely talented, and is already a third-level alchemist."

"Okay, I understand," Long Mo said. He waved his hand to let Long Si leave. He was going to do something His Highness had asked him to do.

Time passed, the moon rose and the sun set, and the night passed. In the morning, sunlight streamed through the window onto the bed. Lin Ziyu stretched and climbed out of bed. After washing up, he went to the dining room for breakfast. The table was filled with a variety of delicious food, including steamed buns, eggs, and sweet soup. As Lin Ziyu ate his breakfast, he thought about his plans for the day.

After breakfast, Lin Ziyu brought Lin Xing to his grandfather's yard. Grandpa was sitting on a stone bench in the yard basking in the sun. Grandpa Lin Zhu stood beside him. Seeing them come in, he smiled and waved to them.

"Grandpa, good morning!" Lin Ziyu walked over to his grandfather and greeted him softly. He then said hello to Lin Zhu, who was standing beside him: "Grandpa Zhu, good morning." After that, he sat down next to his grandfather.

"Hello, Young Master Ziyu." Lin Zhu replied.

"Good morning, Grandpa, the Patriarch." Lin Xing, who was standing behind him, also greeted Lin Yaoyang. He walked over to Lin Zhu and whispered, "Grandpa."

"Well, good morning, Ziyu." Grandpa touched Lin Ziyu's head, his eyes full of love.

"Grandpa, I want to go back to college today." Lin Ziyu looked at his grandfather and said in a firm tone.

"Oh? Xiao Ziyu, have you made up your mind to participate in the alchemist competition?" Lin Yaoyang said with a smile.

"Well, Grandpa, I've made up my mind." Lin Ziyu nodded, his eyes unquestionable, and he said in a firm tone: "Grandpa, I can't forget Long Yan. He can only be mine. I'm going to participate in the alchemy competition and bring him back."

Hearing Lin Ziyu's words, Lin Yaoyang smiled with satisfaction, and secretly sighed in his heart: This child has grown up and has his own ideas and pursuits. Lin Yaoyang turned his head and looked at Lin Zhu proudly, his eyes saying: Look, this is our Lin family's children.

Lin Ziyu looked up into the distance, as if he saw his future self standing at the top, becoming a top alchemist. His eyes were filled with longing and anticipation for the future. Then he could stand beside Long Yan, and no one would dare to question him.

"Okay, grandpa believes you can do it. Go ahead and learn the art of alchemy from your fifth grandpa." Grandpa encouraged.

"Grandpa, goodbye. Grandpa Zhu, goodbye." Lin Ziyu stood up and said.

Lin Xing also walked to Lin Ziyu's side, "Grandpa, the head of the family, goodbye."

"Goodbye, kids. Be careful on the road." Grandpa waved and watched them leave.

Lin Ziyu and Lin Xing walked out of the house and started their journey back to college.
