The spacecraft slowly followed the line of ships into the planet's spaceport.
After passing through layer upon layer of inspections, it decelerated along a silver circular passage connected to the ground and headed toward the surface.
Twenty minutes later.
Wei Heng was already standing before a private residential building in a city on Green Chief Planet. He lightly pressed the doorbell and waited for a moment.
"Come in." With a click, the outer gate's lock opened.
Wei Heng turned back to look at his wife, Maris, who was holding their child.
"Let's go. We'll talk after we get inside. My godmothers are actually very easy to talk to. Don't worry," he reassured her.

With another click, a refined man wearing glasses opened the door and swept his gaze over Wei Heng's family.
"Please come in. Teacher is already waiting for you inside."
