The family didn't understand at all!
After accidentally stepping on a trap in the next maze, 10 years of time was swallowed!
If Lin Feng hadn't just asked the guard, he would still be kept in the dark.
Lance City had undergone expansion in those 10 years, and the city walls had already been repaired to this ghost place.
No wonder the surroundings looked unfamiliar, and the roads were still all mud.
"Master... 10 years have passed?" Yuna still hadn't reacted to this point, and this was the third time she had asked Lin Feng the same question.
"Yes, 10 years have passed. Your sister is already 18 years old."
"Unbelievable... We were only in the maze for a while, but when we came out, so many years had passed." Yuna narrowed her eyes to look ahead, as if she still hadn't reacted.
Lin Feng glanced at the two bunny eared beauties beside him. They looked the same as before. It seemed that having 10 years of time swallowed didn't have much effect on them.
"My brother is older than me now. Should I now call him brother instead of little brother?" Emily stroked her chin, her eyes full of wisdom.
Her concerns were always so unique.
"A little brother is always a little brother. That won't change. What's there to be conflicted about?" Rosa Linda yawned. She didn't sleep well last night.
The two chatted enthusiastically for a long time.
What left the deepest impression on Lin Feng was Emily's question about how many wives her little brother back in the tribe had.
Rosa Linda said seven. Emily said at least ten.
Listening to this, even Lin Feng felt a little envious.
Although roughly speaking, he should also be able to have six or seven in the future.
Yuna lightly pulled on Lin Feng's shirt hem. Her slightly flushed cheeks looked extremely alluring. She spoke haltingly, "Then all of a sudden 10 years have passed. Yuli..."
"Are you worried about her?"
Yuna didn't speak, just lowered her head. After a long time she murmured an "Mm".
It was understandable. After all, their time had stopped relative to Yuli's, but she had already grown 10 years older.
"What if she blames me? She must have written so many letters over those 10 years, but we disappeared like vanishing from the human world."
Yuna had already imagined Yuli sending letter after letter but getting completely no response.
Ultimately unable to put her heart at ease, she chose to come back and take a look, only to discover the house had long been abandoned...
Instantly a feeling of being abandoned welled up.
"That won't happen. Just tell the truth."
It was normal for Yuna to not know how to face Yuli after 10 whole years.
"Then, will master's house still be there?"
"As long as it hasn't been torn down it will definitely still be there. I bought that land. Apart from petty thieves, no one should try to take it." Lin Feng guessed.
With 10 years of no one living there, the locks were probably all picked. The valuables inside were likely all stolen clean.
Although Lance City's public order was good, a house unoccupied for so long would definitely attract ill-intentioned people.
Even if it hadn't been robbed, by now the outside of the house was probably covered in vines and the yard filled with weeds, like an eerie, sinister haunted house.
Seeing that she was still anxious, Lin Feng comfortingly stroked Yuna's wolf ears.
"Trust me, it'll be fine. Yuli should still be traveling the world with Kandis right now."
If not for the bothersome object hanging on him, he definitely would have wanted to give Yuna a nice, warm hug.
He looked at the two bunny eared beauties. "You two suddenly lost 10 years. The changes in your tribe are probably huge too. Do you want to go back and see?"
"What's there to see? My little brother has his own family now. He can take care of himself." Emily folded her arms. She didn't have the slightest interest in going back to see the tribe.
"Right, we both married out. We don't have anything to do with the tribe anymore." Rosa Linda softly exhaled a breath of hot air and gently rubbed her eyes.
The two bunny eared beauties were of the same mind.
Although he didn't really understand some of the beastkin's notions, Lin Feng chose to respect their decision.
Lin Feng spent a great amount of effort before finally finding a horse carriage that could take them back.
He didn't know if it was because there was no competition recently, or prices had changed after 10 years, but the fee was a full double what it was before.
The coachman softly complained: "Sigh, if I hadn't earned enough money to get through winter, who would be willing to drive a carriage out in the dead of winter? I can take it, but these two horses can't..."
Lin Feng closed his eyes. When he opened them, the sky was just about dark, but the buildings outside could still be seen indistinctly.
The coachman shook the snow off his cloak. "We're here."
Lin Feng craned his neck to look.
Although the streets were covered in snow, the outlines could still vaguely be seen.
It looked the same as in his memory.
After getting off the carriage, the first thing Lin Feng saw was his house.
Despite 10 years having passed, there was basically no change.
The only real change was that the bellflowers on the second floor window sill were gone.
Also normal. With no one going back for 10 years, even if it was a potted cactus it would have died.
"Master, there's light inside the house. Someone is living there." Yuna pointed at the window on the first floor.
"It's probably just some scavenger passing the winter. We'll chase them out when the time comes."
Lin Feng knocked on the door.
Hurried footsteps sounded from inside.
"Who is it?!"
It was a woman's voice, but Lin Feng had absolutely no impression of it.
A stranger, huh.
Lin Feng inadvertently glanced at Yuna's reaction.
Head lowered, hands faintly shaking.
What kind of person would make her react this way? The answer instantly came to him.
Lin Feng moved closer to Yuna and softly asked into her ear, "Is it Yuli?"
Yuna nodded, then hid behind Lin Feng's back.
Since that was the case!
"Your most respected Lin Feng brother has returned. Hurry and open the door~!"
Lin Feng sensed the hesitation from the person inside for a few seconds before they ran upstairs.
???
Not opening the door?
Lin Feng leaned against the door frame and stroked Yuna's hair.
After a while, the door opened.
Lin Feng recognized the person who opened the door instantly with one glance.
It was Kandis.
In terms of her timeline, it had probably been 10 years since they last met, but she had just grown more mature. Other than that there was no change.
In short, still gorgeous, but with an added charm about her.
Kandis's pupils shook. She looked at Lin Feng and those behind him in disbelief.
It wasn't hard to see that suddenly reappearing after vanishing from the human world for 10 years was quite the explosive event.
"Come in first, it's cold outside..."
