Legendary Person: I brought my skills back to reality!
Chapter 518 Shura Field?
Xu Hao raised his hand, his fingertips touching the cold metal doorknob, but he didn't turn it for a long time.
He stood outside the grand gate of his villa, with smooth stone slabs under his feet and meticulously maintained greenery all around him. Everything was familiar and comforting, but at this moment he felt like a guilty visitor, hesitant and uncertain.
The body's power was already abundant, and the mental energy was completely restored after a deep sleep, even feeling more concentrated than before.
He's in great shape right now; he could punch right through a steel plate.
Lying in his hospital bed, he tried more than once to communicate with that familiar system, attempting to reopen the passage to the continent of Fama, but all he received in response was deathly silence.
The system interface was grayed out; the time travel option had completely disappeared. The continent of Fama, the world that held countless memories, battles, and emotions for him, along with Qiao Xi and the others… had truly vanished into nothingness.
An indescribable sense of heaviness swept over me, but it was quickly washed away by the tide of reality.
The deceased are gone, but the living must face the life before them.
But life right now... is a bit too "bustling".
His mental power, like invisible tentacles, had already penetrated the walls and clearly perceived the scene in the villa's living room.
Lin Ya sat gracefully in the main seat of the sofa, holding a cup of tea with a faint smile on her lips, as if she were in control of the situation. Zi Yu sat somewhat reservedly beside her, her hands on her knees, her eyes filled with the curiosity and unease of a newcomer, sipping something slowly.
Light conversation and the clattering of pots and pans came from the kitchen. Li Meilan and the twins, Yayi and Mai, were busy at work, and the aroma of food wafted over.
On the single sofa near the floor-to-ceiling window, the tall Dasha was engrossed in watching a tablet computer, occasionally letting out a gasp of surprise.
The hierarchy within the family—the emperor's throne, the status of the family, and the position of the younger brother—is clearly revealed here!
Five women, plus him, this room was simply... Xu Hao could even vaguely "hear" what they were talking about, and the atmosphere seemed to be quite harmonious.
Sister Lin Ya is indeed skillful; she quickly calmed down the newcomer Zi Yu and gathered the others together. But beneath this calm, could there be undercurrents?
He took a deep breath, as if he could smell the complex aroma of food mixed with different perfumes in the air.
Go in? What should I say as my first words? Should I inquire about everyone's well-being first, or explain Zi Yu's background?
Although Sister Lin Ya put on the airs of a "harem manager," who knows if she was actually a little uncomfortable inside?
Li Meilan is gentle, but she's not without a temper. Yayi and Mai are quirky and clever, Dasha is enthusiastic and outgoing, and then there's Ziyu, who's clueless about the modern world and clearly dependent on her…
It's like carefully piling up a bunch of explosives with different properties. Although they haven't been detonated yet, who knows which tiny spark might trigger a massive explosion?
The thought of all the possible interrogations, eye contact, and even underhanded competition made Xu Hao feel his newly recovered mental strength begin to ache again, even more so than when facing thousands of troops on the Fama Continent.
He raised his hand and slowly lowered it, leaning against the cold door frame. Looking at his own tightly closed door, he suddenly felt an absurd sense of trepidation, like being close to home.
Other main characters have harems of over twenty beautiful women, what's there to be afraid of?!
He gritted his teeth and pushed the door open.
"I'm back." He tried to make his voice sound as natural as possible.
The laughter and conversation in the living room suddenly stopped.
The first to react was Lin Ya. She was holding a teacup, and upon hearing the sound, she gracefully put it down. A gentle yet slightly teasing smile immediately bloomed on her face as she stood up.
"Hey, our invincible hero who spanned two realms has finally returned?"
Come and sit down, we've been waiting for you.
Her gaze swept naturally over Xu Hao, as if checking to see if he was truly unharmed, then she turned naturally to the slightly flustered Zi Yu beside her and said softly:
"Little sister Ziyu, look, he's back safe and sound, isn't he? Don't worry about him anymore."
When Zi Yu saw Xu Hao, her eyes lit up, as if she had found her pillar of support. She quickly stood up, looking at him nervously, and whispered...
He shouted:
"Brother Xu Hao..."
At the kitchen doorway, Li Meilan carried out the last dish of hot soup, a gentle smile on her face:
"You're back! Go wash your hands and eat."
Behind her, Ai and Mai peeked out, the two little girls calling out in clear voices, "Master!"
Dasha put down her tablet, stood up, and waved casually, "Ha, you finally showed up!"
The atmosphere seems to be... pretty good?
Pshaw! What kind of chaotic scene is this? It's nothing!
Xu Hao breathed a slight sigh of relief and quickly went over to wash his hands.
The table was already laden with a sumptuous spread of dishes, featuring Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Russian cuisines. It was clear that Chef Li Meilan was in charge, with Ai Mai and Dasha each contributing their own signature dishes.
Lin Ya naturally sat down at the head of the long dining table. She patted the empty seat to her right: "Xiao Hao, sit here." Then she pointed to the seat to her left and smiled gently at Zi Yu:
"Little Ziyu, sit next to me. We haven't had enough of chatting yet."
The seating arrangement... Xu Hao's heart skipped a beat, but he could only sit down as instructed. To Lin Ya's left was Zi Yu, and to her right was him, with the others sitting opposite and beside her in order. Zi Yu seemed somewhat flattered, glancing at Xu Hao, then at Lin Ya, before finally obediently sitting down.
"Come on, don't be shy, start eating," Lin Ya said, first placing a piece of sweet and sour pork, Xu Hao's favorite, on her plate, and then naturally placing a piece of steamed fish on Zi Yu's plate.
"Little Ziyu, try Meilan's cooking. This fish is very fresh and good for your recovery. You just got back, so you need to eat more to nourish yourself."
Li Meilan smiled gently and agreed, "Yes, Ziyu, just tell me what you like to eat, don't be shy."
Ai and Mai also looked at Ziyu curiously. Mai even poured Ziyu a glass of juice: "Ziyu-neechan, drink this, it's sweet!"
Dasha, however, was more interested in Ziyu's experiences on the continent of Fama. While munching on a chicken leg, she asked indistinctly, "Hey, Ziyu, I heard you guys are really good at fighting over there? Is it like in the movies?"
Lin Ya didn't dampen their enthusiasm, but at the appropriate moment, she gestured with her eyes for everyone to calm down before turning to Zi Yu, her tone somewhat serious:
"Speaking of which, Ziyu, you deserve great credit for Xiaohao's safe return this time, and for bringing back so many people."
Hearing you describe your battle in Shabak just now was truly breathtaking. Without you fighting alongside him and supporting him, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Her voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly. She didn't directly address the relationship between Ziyu and Xu Hao, but subtly emphasized Ziyu's "irreplaceability" and the camaraderie of "fighting side by side."
This weight instantly distinguished them from the others who were merely "brought back".
Zi Yu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head shyly: "Sister Lin Ya, you flatter me. It's all thanks to Brother Xu Hao's excellent leadership. I just did what I was supposed to do..."
Listening from the side, Xu Hao felt that Lin Ya's words were a textbook example of how to "elevate someone's status," affirming Zi Yu's contributions and importance in a natural and unforced manner, while also subtly subtly subtly criticizing the others at the table.
Look closely, this person is different from you.
They fought alongside our leader on the battlefield, and they're different from you guys who use your looks to please others. Keep your eyes open in the future!
