Chapter 577: Lu Ding’s background is so vulgar!
.......
In his previous life, Lu Ding was also one of Zhan Tingzhou's friends, though not a close friend.
This guy had a sharp tongue and a high status.
He was the young master of the Lu Family, the largest clan in Ji Continent.
Because his father wanted to walk an unconventional path to transcendence, he descended to the mortal realm in the Third Circle to cultivate anew, where he met Lu Ding's mother. After Lu Ding was born, the Lu Family patriarch from Ji Continent discovered his heaven-defying actions.
He was forcibly recalled.
Fearing that the infant Lu Ding would be purged if brought back to Ji Continent, Lu Ding's father didn't take him, only bringing his Third Circle wife.
The couple chose to face the consequences together.
Later, after Lu Ding's father overcame the crisis and wanted to return for Lu Ding, the rapidly developing Great Han blocked him using the regulation that the Third and Second Circles know of each other but do not interact!
The new city reforms were precisely the crucial turning point in Great Han's rapid development!!Afterwards, using some unknown method, the Ji Continent Lu Family secretly brought Lu Ding back.
What exactly happened in between remained unknown to anyone, as the Lu Family kept tight-lipped about the matter.
In the following years, Lu Ding grew rapidly under the cultivation of the Ji Continent Lu Family!
If Lu Ding didn't know about these things, if he did know.
He would definitely complain: "What a cliché background story."
And would add: "Do I need them?"
In his previous life.
Lu Ding could only be considered an ordinary friend to Zhan Tingzhou.
But now, remembering that only Lu Ding had given him that one reminder, just that single sentence.
Zhan Tingzhou realized in his heart that Lu Ding was the one worth becoming close friends with!
He reached out and pulled open the door!
Welcoming the baptism of fresh outside air.
Zhan Tingzhou said in a deep voice: "For the grace of that one sentence in my previous life, I will repay you with great gifts in this lifetime!!!"
With his memories as a reborn person, Zhan Tingzhou believed that in this life, he would definitely walk ahead of everyone else!!
"Young master? You're awake? I was just about to call you."
The butler approached, watching Zhan Tingzhou who had his eyes closed immersed in his own world.
Zhan Tingzhou:.......
He replied without changing expression: "No need to call me, quickly gather people in the Zhan Family main hall!"
He was going to take people to rescue his sister.
"Young master, don't call people yet, what matter could be more important than the young lady returning safely?"
"Please go to the main hall quickly, the young lady is crying and making a fuss to see you. She's closest to you, tears are welling up in her eyes, she seems terribly wronged. Please go comfort her."
"Madam told me to quietly inform you that the master has seen your attitude. Later, be more gentle and give the master a way to save face........"
Zhan Tingzhou couldn't hear the rest of the words.
He stood frozen in place.
His eyes somewhat vacant as he stared ahead.
Sister returned!???
Wait... hold on... how did sister return?
This doesn't match my memories...
Wasn't sister...
Am I dreaming? Or is this a fantasy to make up for regrets before death?
As this thought arose.
Zhan Tingzhou didn't hesitate at all, raising his hand to slap himself hard across the face.
Though this method was old-fashioned, it worked well - classics never go out of style.
He startled the old butler so much he nearly spat out his false teeth.
Had the young master hit his head too hard?
This won't do, just as the young lady returns, now the young master has problems!!!
He rushed up to support Zhan Tingzhou: "Young master, young master, are you alright??? How are you feeling?"
At this moment, Zhan Tingzhou didn't answer the butler.
He just carefully felt the pain on his face.
It hurt!
Really hurt!
It wasn't fake.
Staggering forward, his steps quickened until with one final step he leaped onto the roof, darting toward the Zhan Family main hall!!!
He completely ignored the old butler's shouts behind him.
"Young master!!! Be polite, don't be stubborn, there are guests too, Special Envoy Lu from 749 is here, remember to greet people......"
Zhan Tingzhou had already flown far away.
Years of regret were finally going to be remedied today.
Zhan Tingzhou couldn't wait even a moment.
Never mind that this pain probably couldn't be an illusion, even if it was an illusion!
Zhan Tingzhou would accept it!
Regret had trapped him his entire life... living was painful, he wanted to die, but feared news of his sister might be waiting for him tomorrow........
So painfully, Zhan Tingzhou looked forward to each tomorrow......
Growing stronger and stronger amidst regret!!!
Carrying years of regret, Zhan Tingzhou flew all the way to the Zhan Family main hall.
When he landed.
That familiar petite figure in his parents' embrace came into view, blurring Zhan Tingzhou's vision.
At this close distance, each step he took was incredibly slow.
Hot tears rolled down.
His hands trembling as he reached forward: "Lit... little sister..."
Hearing her brother's call, the girl immediately put down her favorite snack and came running over, throwing herself into Zhan Tingzhou's embrace.
Her two small hands holding him tightly.
She wanted to cry about her grievances during this time, but she was afraid that what she had experienced would make her brother blame himself even more.
After holding back for a long time, the girl looked up, teardrops as big as beans rolling down: "Brother, you can't be so late to pick me up next time."
Zhan Tingzhou picked up his little sister: "Never again, never again, I'll never be so late to pick you up again."
"Brother was wrong, I'm sorry, brother was useless..... brother didn't find you........"
Regret turned into tears that dripped to the ground and shattered, staining the dust.
At this moment.
The incomplete state of mind that had prevented Zhan Tingzhou from breaking through to the God Sealing realm in his previous life was now completely fulfilled.
His current cultivation level no longer mattered to Zhan Tingzhou - from now on, he would only soar higher!!
Zhan Xinyue reached out a small hand from his embrace, wiping away Zhan Tingzhou's tears: "Don't cry, don't cry, I'm not even crying as much as you."
Zhan Tingzhou freed one hand, wiping the tears completely from his face: "Not crying, not crying, brother's not crying anymore, how did you return........"
As he spoke, he unconsciously turned while holding his sister.
And with that look!!!
He didn't know until he looked, but looking gave him a shock.
Another familiar face came into view.
Zhan Tingzhou stood frozen, almost dumbstruck as he looked at Lu Ding elegantly sipping tea.
Sitting with dragon-tiger authority, wearing scholar-warrior sleeves, eyebrows and eyes filled with arrogance, draped in flowing ink-wash robes.
He instinctively shouted: "Lu Ding!!!?"
Originally, Lu Ding had been focused on drinking tea, giving them space for their reunion.
But.
Zhan Tingzhou's shout of "Lu Ding."
Made him glance over.
Logically speaking, Zhan Tingzhou shouldn't have seen him before.
Even if he had heard of him.
It would only be his fearsome reputation, how families like the Luo Family and Zeng Family, which had Fifth Restriction experts, had been destroyed by his hands.
With your small family whose strongest member is only at the Fourth Restriction, what gives you the right to call his name directly?
Though Lu Ding didn't really care about that.
But details determine success or failure.
From the emotion in the voice, it was clear this person knew him!
But he had just arrived in the Second Circle, so how did Zhan Tingzhou know him?
This didn't add up!!
