The trip to the Lin Astral Empire was long because it was very far away from the Mu Stellar Kingdom.

The supercluster that the Mu Stellar Kingdom and the Zi Stellar Kingdom was in was actually at the very edge of the entire Lin Astral Empire's domain.

That was the main reason why the Lin Family Ancestor had settled here.

So to get back to the main domain of the Lin Astral Empire, it would take them at least a week of traveling.

That was with the super fast personal spaceship of the Lin Astral Emperor.

But since it would take a long time, Lin Fan suggested that they take it slow and visit different parts of the Lin Astral Empire's domain while traveling.

While it would take them much longer, at least they would be able to enjoy the trip.

For the Lin Astral Emperor who had just reunited with his son and his extended family, he was happy to accept this suggestion.

After all, the biggest regret that he had in his life was when he had let his son leave.

He knew that he didn't have a choice in this matter since this was what was best for his son, but he had always felt that he could have done something else for him. He felt that all his power as the Lin Astral Emperor had been wasted when he couldn't help his son recover his heart.

So being able to spend time with his son and his descendants was naturally something that he wanted.

Not to mention…it was something that he was doing for his wife.

His wife had been the one that had taken their son's sudden leave more seriously than he had and they had gotten into many arguments over it.

So being able to reunite the two of them was something that he had always wanted to accomplish.

So this feeling was very good for them.

It didn't take long for them to plot out a course for their return journey.

After all, this was the private spaceship of the Lin Astral Emperor and there was no impediments for this ship as long as they were in the territory of the Lin Astral Empire.

Not to mention that there were very competent ministers and guards that had come along with the Lin Astral Emperor. These were people that were very intelligent and had a good understanding of the Lin Astral Empire's territory.

It didn't take them long to come up with various different suggestions for places to go.

There were places with exquisite forging techniques, there were places with masterful pill refining techniques, and there were places with beautiful sceneries.

All kinds of different places were offered, but the Lin Astral Emperor and his wife left it all to the young people to decide.

In this case, it was Lin Yue, Yue Qingrou, Angela, and Yuki.

The men didn't get a chance to say anything, nor were they willing to say anything because all the men here had completely submitted to the women. They didn't dare say a thing and just let the women decide everything.

The only woman that didn't participate was Zi Ling who had strangely been in a daze since they had left the Mu Stellar Kingdom. She just followed Angela around and to Lin Fan's surprise, the two of them got along quite well.

He had thought that Angela would keep Zi Ling at an arm's length and he would have to slowly get the two of them together, but to his surprise, she had kept Zi Ling by her side at all times.

It really didn't make sense since she had just beaten him up over this matter not that long ago.

But he didn't dare provoke her or question it since it was good right now.

He didn't want to do anything that would ruin this good atmosphere.

But in the end, all good things would need to come to an end.

Right now, Lin Fan was sleeping in a separate room because Angela was angry at him. However, on the second day, Lin Fan was called into the room that Angela had been sharing with Zi Ling.

In that room, Angela and Zi Ling were currently sitting on the bed talking about something, but they stopped the moment that Lin Fan came in.

After coming in, Lin Fan didn't dare sit down after seeing the look on Angela's face and only when she pointed at a chair that was prepared did he finally sit down. This chair had been placed so that it was facing Angela and Zi Ling who were sitting on the bed.

With the two of them staring at him, he felt awkward, but he still didn't say a thing.

Or rather, there was nothing for him to say since he didn't know what the situation was.

After a long period of silence, Angela finally said, "Tell her about the store."

Lin Fan didn't react at first, but then he looked at her with wide eyes. That was because the store was the biggest secret that they had which they hadn't even told the Lin Astral Emperor, the Lin Family Ancestor, or even his family about.

This was a secret that would decide their face, but Angela was willing to share it with Zi Ling?

Just how much faith did she have in her?

Or rather, when did she gain this kind of faith in her?

Seeing the way that Lin Fan looked at her, it wasn't hard for her to tell what he was thinking.

She just calmly looked back at him and said, "It's alright, her feelings are sincere."

When she heard this, Zi Ling couldn't help revealing a blush.

In fact, she hadn't understood what they had been doing over the past few days either.

She had told her a few things about Lin Fan's store, or rather hinting at it, but she had never told her anything concrete. Instead, she had been talking to her about many different things about Lin Fan.

Such as his preferences, his habits, and other things about him.

But Zi Ling hadn't been around Lin Fan as much as Angela, so there were many things that she couldn't answer as comprehensively.

Angela never seemed to mind and just kept asking her many different questions which confused Zi Ling even more.

She had no idea what she had been doing until now.

Angela had asked those questions with one thought in mind, she just wanted to see how sincere Zi Ling was.

After all, even if she didn't know much about Lin Fan, the fact that she did her best to answer and learn more about him showed just how sincere she was with her feelings. That was the most important thing for them because they weren't afraid of the Lin Astral Empire with the God Realm Expert, as well as several Rulers in Angela, Momonga, and Yuki on their side.

So they just needed to make sure that Zi Ling was sincere and loyal or else it would all crumble from within.

In short, if she wasn't sincere, she would become a danger to Lin Fan and Angela would never allow that to happen.

But of course, what Angela didn't know was that there…wasn't actually a God Realm Expert in the store.

After hearing this, Lin Fan looked at Zi Ling and just sat there in silence for a bit.

After a long while, he finally said with a sigh, "Alright."

Over the next hour, Lin Fan told Zi Ling everything that had happened over his long journey, albeit he left out a few details that only he knew. Such as his transmigration and the truth behind the store.

The truth that there was no God Realm Expert like they had all thought.

When she finished listening to it all, Zi Ling couldn't help being stunned.

After all, a God Realm Expert was a very big deal. But at the same time, the bigger deal was that Lin Fan was actually acquainted with Rulers of the Myriad Races.

She had thought that Angela was just a powerful expert from some other Astral Empire, but she never expected that she would be from the Myriad Races.

While the reputation of the Myriad Races wasn't as bad as the Beast Race, they still weren't on friendly terms with the human race. After all, there were many different races in the Myriad Races and they all had different attitudes towards the humans.

Not to mention…Momonga's real identity was the most concerning.

The undead race was known as one of the most dangerous races among the Myriad Races and one that the humans tried to avoid the most. But here was the all powerful Lich King that was living among the humans…

If people were to learn about this, there would be without a doubt serious repercussions.

There was a long period of silence that followed after Lin Fan told her the truth, but her eyes weren't as complicated as they thought it would be. There was only a moment of hesitation before a firm look appeared in her eyes, as if she had already made up her mind.

Suddenly, Zi Ling looked up and said, "I'm on your side no matter what."

Lin Fan revealed a moved look as he looked at her, but he still hesitated while standing there.

Only after getting a nod of confirmation from Angela did he finally move forward to take Zi Ling in his arms.

Being held like this, there was a warm feeling that filled her heart.

Once they separated, Angela moved closer and said, "You'll pay me back tonight."

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a surprised look, but then he suddenly revealed a happy smile.

After all, this meant that he had officially reconciled with Angela.

Peace was truly the best.
