Soul Land IV - The Ultimate Combat

Chapter 60 - Daddy is back

A stranger in a strange land, one thinks of one's dear ones even more on festive occasions.

One who had never left his or her family would never understand this feeling. Obviously, Lan Xiao missed home too! He missed his wife and son dearly.

"Cheng, Time is limited. Listen to me." Lan Xiao was still very rational and he spoke quickly.

Nan Cheng restrained from sobbing and said, "Go on."

Lan Xiao said, "I'm fine, don't worry, everything is going very smoothly at my side. We really found another planet and from the initial observations and tests, this planet might be even better than Heaven Dou and Heaven Luo. It is larger and has an abundance of resources it is very suitable for humans to live in. Even the oxygen levels and the atmospheric pressure are the same as the parent planet. We have just completed a series of tests and sample-taking. I'll be returning home soon and the return journey will take one and a half months. So, in another one and a half months, when Xuanyu returns to school, I should be home already. Although it took quite a while this time, it was a successful trip. Our Federation might have a new planet. So, don't worry, I'll be home soon, tell Xuanyu that Daddy misses him very much."

"Daddy, I'm here." Lan Xuanyu quickly called out.

"But what about me?" Nan Cheng raged.

"Of course I miss you, I miss you very much." Lan Xiao laughed.

Nan Cheng blushed slightly. "That's more like it. But it's still another month and a half!"

Lan Xiao sighed softly. "There's no way we could determine a definite time with interplanetary travel, especially since this is an interstellar exploration. I only found out after coming out here that our expedition is already considered quite successful. Alright, I can't talk any longer, got to leave some time for my colleagues. Wait for my return, I love you guys."

The call ended. Nan Cheng was in a daze when she gritted her teeth a little, but Lan Xuanyu noticed that Nan Cheng's eyes lit up and weren't as dull as before.

Nan Cheng bent over suddenly and cupped Lan Xuanyu's soft cheeks with both her hands. She planted three kisses on one side of his face and after that, she charged outside excitedly and said, "Mommy is going to cook for you now!"

Lan Xuanyu wiped the saliva off of his face, slightly disgusted. "Seriously, Mommy, it's all wet but Daddy is about to come home. I wonder if he got any gifts. If there isn't a gift, hng! hng! I won't let him kiss me."

It was, without a doubt, that this minute-long call brought an immense drive for both the mother and son. This was also the best graduation gift for Lan Xuanyu.

The vacation was one and a half months. Lan Xuanyu also told Nan Cheng about the gifted junior class and had obviously received her support.

Lan Xuanyu had set a goal for himself; firstly, he wanted to break through to rank 14 within this one and a half months, and then, he also wanted to improve in all of the other aspects of his skills.

The cultivation room at home could only provide up to three times their planet's gravitational force and when Nana was teaching Lan Xuanyu, she had already let him try working with twice their normal gravity. Lan Xuanyu decided that he had to reach at least five times of it during this holiday to strengthen his body.

During the previous semester, he grew taller and stronger, maybe because of those rare ingredients. He was bigger than most children of his age. Therefore, although his Spirit Power didn't increase rapidly, he could clearly feel that his physical abilities had increased very quickly; especially his strength and speed. Also, he was becoming more and more familiar with his control over the water elements and he could now perform some extremely delicate actions.
