They were not the only ones who were surprised.
In the Kunlun Immortal World.
Ah Hu and Liu Jiaran were on a sightseeing tour.
“Ah Hu, when do you think we should have children?” Liu Jiaran asked under her breath.
She was now 26 years old. Having been with Ah Hu for several years, she started to consider having a baby.
“Why do we need a child to burden us?” Ah Hu grunted, “We’ll also go to play in the vast cosmos. Why not enjoy being with each other. If we had a child, you wouldn’t be able to go out and have fun for years.”
“You’re right. It’s just that...” Liu Jiaran scratched her head and said, “my dad has been urging us.”
“Huh?” Ah Hu was dazed. “He just can’t wait to have grandchildren, can he?”
“Yeah, he does yearn for grandchildren. His company is not as busy as it used to be. He doesn’t attach much importance to the developnt of his business. He has much leisure ti now. The point is... Xiao Ling may have been pregnant because her period is late. But even if she is not pregnant, I can tell that she and her husband are also planning to have kids. If we two beat them to it, our kid will be older than my younger brother or younger sister that is coming. Wouldn’t that be quite funny?”
“Er, well, you do have a strong taste of fun, don’t you?”
Ah Hu grinned, which inspired a series of laughter from Liu Jiaran.
Right at this mont—
“Rumble!”
A cluster of energy appeared several hundred ters above his head.
“Huh?”
In an instant, Ah Hu’s sharp eyes looked over. When he found that it was that kind of energy cluster, his eyes lit up.
“We saw one! Quickly inform Brother Feng and the others.”
Before Liu Jiaran could do anything—
“Swoosh!”
The cluster of energy directly plunged and rcilessly hit Ah Hu on the head.
“Aargh...”
The energy knocked Ah Hu senseless. He even beca cross-eyed. Gaping at Liu Jiaran, he steeled himself to utter one sentence.
“Hurry, inform Brother Feng.”
The concept of this “inform” was completely different from the previous one.
When he said it for the first ti, he ant to tell Brother Feng that he was going to capture the cluster of energy and bring it back to their boss. But the second ti he said that, he was simply asking Zhao Feng to co and protect them.
Because Ah Hu fainted right after he finished speaking.
“Ah Hu!”
Liu Jiaran was startled. She quickly took out the talisman and contacted Zhao Feng, who was not far away.
However, Zhao Feng was also experiencing sothing extraordinary.
“Darling.”
Zhao Feng put an arm around Liang ngqi’s shoulder and said, “Do you think it’s ti for us to have a baby?”
“Oh, sure. But are you fertile?” Liang ngqi glanced at him breezily.
“Why am I not?”
Zhao Feng, who was usually calm and collected, couldn’t help but stamp his feet at this ti. “Why don’t we try it now? This place is quite picturesque... We can do it right here right now.”
“What are you thinking?”
Liang ngqi’s face hardened. “How embarrassing it would be if soone walked in on us?”
“Who would walk in on us in this deep forest?” Zhao Feng laughed and said, “What’s more important is, I have this. With this formation flag I got from Uncle Wang, I’m sure no one can hear or see us.”
“Ugh!”
Liang ngqi quickly nudged him. “Did you already plan this out before you ca here?”
Zhao Feng leaned over and began to make out with her. The mood on the field beca more and more erotic. Liang ngqi’s face had blushed tomato red, which looked even more attractive.
Just as Zhao Feng was about to make his next move...
“Eh? Ah Hu is looking for ?”
Zhao Feng took out the talisman and attentively felt the induction.
“Sothing’s happened to him. He’s been knocked out by a cluster of energy. Let’s go and have a look.”
As soon as he said that...
“Rumble!”
A streak of Source Energy ca into being in the air, about 100 ters over Zhao Feng. The next second, with great accuracy, it landed on Zhao Feng’s head.
“Quick, inform Xu Yong...”
With a plop, Zhao Feng passed out.
That gave Liang ngqi quite a turn. She hurriedly fetched out the talisman to notice Xu Yong.
Twenty minutes later, Xu Yong bustled over with a ruddy face.
“Sister-in-law, I’m not gonna hold on for long. Quickly inform Instructor Liu.”
With that said, he ran to Zhao Feng and slumped to the ground.
Just like that, Liang ngqi spent quite a while turning to others for help. Eventually, it was Mu Xue who led the team to the site. She had made Jiang Yanlan, Instructor Liu, and Elder ng float in the air and follow her. They had all fainted. After eting up with Liu Jiaran, they found out that those who blacked out had all been hit by Source Energy.
“Treasures that fell from the sky?”
Mu Xue muttered, “Why didn’t I feel giddy or lose consciousness when I absorbed that energy? Elder ng and Xu Yong remained sober for quite a while before they fainted. But Zhao Feng and Ah Hu passed out right after they were hit. Could it be that... you are showing off your love and even the heavens can’t stand it?”
As soon as she said this, Liang ngqi’s face turned pink. Liu Jiaran was more composed. She didn’t react.
“What should we do now?” Liang ngqi swiftly changed the subject.
“We shall just wait. They will regain consciousness very soon. Then, they can cultivate here. When they make a breakthrough, we can go back and give Master a huge surprise.” Mu Xue muttered, “This is funny. Leng Yue has also got a cluster of energy. All of a sudden, so many of us have gained such energy. It feels so strange. It’s like soone has delivered it specifically to us.”
She was kind of puzzled.
As a matter of fact, her intuition was quite correct. Those blessings were indeed delivered specifically to them.
An hour later, Zhao Feng and the others regained consciousness. Feeling the raging energy in their bodies, they were overwheld by surprise. They sat cross-legged and began to cultivate and absorb the energy right on the spot. Five hours later—
“Hahaha, now, I am also at the Elixir Realm Last-Stage! This feels good!”
“We’ve all made a breakthrough.”
“Care to spar with ?”
“...”
They sparred with one another for a long while before they temporarily gained control over their rapidly improved cultivation. After that, they left the Kunlun Immortal World and returned to Mount New Moon.
Mu Xue, who was taking the lead, cheerfully ran to the Thunder Yang Tree. She looked at Zi Yan with a smile and said,
. “Ma’am, guess what we’ve got in the Kunlun Immortal World?”
“What is it?”
“Balls of energy! Haha, several of us have obtained one, such as Zhao Feng, Ah Hu...”
Looking at Zi Yan’s beaming face, Zhao Feng was struck by enlightennt. “Could it be...”
“Ma’am, does Master have sothing to do with the energy we’ve obtained?” Zhao Feng asked hesitantly.
“Your Master? No. How could he get such energy for you?” Zi Yan curled her lips.
“Ah, then, thank you so much, Ma’am.” Zhao Feng imdiately cottoned on and thanked Zi Yan with a hold-fist salute.
“Thank you, Lady Boss.”
“You’re aweso, Lady Boss!”
“Ma’am, you’re amazing!” Jiang Yanlan echoed with a smile.
“Ma’am, is it you who got us the energy? How did you co into the possession of that?” Mu Xue asked with a dazed expression.
“I asked Yue Wuwei for it.”
Zi Yan bead and said, “You should hurry up and grasp the power after the breakthrough. Have you all had mastery over your secret skills? You gotta gain a thorough understanding of them. In less than a month, we will go out to participate in a trial in the Sea Dragon Star Area. If you were not strong enough, you would be in real danger. Thus, these days, you should all do your best to cultivate and focus on mastering your secret skills.”
“Er, doesn’t it sound like sothing Master would tell us? Where is Master?” Mu Xue asked curiously.
Normally, Ma’am would not say these things to them because she did not know much about cultivation. Nor would she ask anyone to work hard on cultivation and study their secret skills. Therefore, Mu Xue guessed that the speech Zi Yan just delivered was made on behalf of her master.
“He asked to tell you that. He is also cultivating in seclusion.” Zi Yan nodded.
“Oh, I see. Then I’ll go and cultivate in seclusion as well.” Mu Xue bid them goodbye and turned around, heading back to her villa.
“Lady Boss, what will the trial in the Sea Dragon Star Area be about? Are we heading for the Sea Dragon Star Area? So we’re leaving Earth, aren’t we?” Instructor Liu probed. He was kind of in a trance.
“Yes, we’re. Therefore, we have to be well prepared.” Zi Yan smiled.
“Oh my God, we’re going to outer space. Gee... Honey, let’s go and cultivate in seclusion, too.” Instructor Liu turned to look at Jiang Yanlan.
“Ma’am, we’ll go back and start to cultivate now,” Jiang Yanlan said.
“Lady Boss, so will us.”
Everyone said their goodbye and departed one after another. In fact, they would work hard to cultivate even without Zi Yan’s instruction. Yet, the talk Zi Yan gave them still made a difference. Because it gave them a sense of pressure, which would help them cultivate more efficiently.
In addition to them, Zhang Guangyou, Zhang Mu, and Dong Chen were all cultivating in seclusion.
Few had found the kind of Source Energy they had secured. The sects in the entire Kunlun Immortal World were crazy about the energy. The disciples of the sects were all scattered to look for such energy. They could co across one another every ti they traveled a few miles.
What they didn’t know was that the opportunities they were pursuing were actually all reserved for certain people.
It was a shady deal, a glaring shady deal.
Initially, Yue Wuwei could have sent the clusters of energy to the designated people in secret. But he chose to make such a splash. Perhaps, it was because he had a whacky sense of humor. Anyway, if he wanted to toy with the entire Kunlun Immortal World, he could make it happen with a re snap of his fingers.
Perhaps choosing to knock Zhao Feng and Ah Hu unconscious was also one of Yue Wuwei’s whimsies.
After hearing the news from others, Zi Yan was a little stunned. She muttered in a lower voice, “Yue Wuwei, that old man is really...”
Ti flew. On Friday, the final examination began. It was a major examination in the sester. The students were assigned to different rooms to take the exam according to their previous grades. This way, no one could copy others’ answers in that those take the exam in the sa room were all at the sa level of learning. There would be no better answers to copy.
The 40th examination room was unexpectedly lively.
“Old buddy.”
During the English exam, soone noticed that a student of another class was wielding his pen passionately. Answers to the questions were simply pouring out from him. “Uh-huh, he seems to know all the answers!” Therefore, the first student called him and winked at him several tis.
“Oh, I see.”
The student sitting next to him was taken aback at first. But then, he laughed in his head, for he was just randomly ticking the options. Still, he cautiously let the other student have a quick glimpse of his answer sheet, which read ACBDCA...
When the results ca out—
The student who let the other one copy his answer was walking in the corridor. He happened to see the student who called him “Old buddy” during that exam standing in the corridor, being given a dressing-down by the teacher.
Of course, this was an interesting episode in school life.
The examination room ngng had been assigned to accommodate almost all the top students in the first grade in the First Middle School. At a glance, one would find that one-fifth of the students in the room were wearing glasses. It was probably because they did not sit in the right posture when studying. Even if one didn’t have one’s eyes glued to a smartphone screen, one could still be near-sighted if one read books at too short a distance.
Those top students did not find the exam a challenge. Each of them was writing at a trendous speed, for they knew all the answers for real. The sound of pens brushing across the papers was the only thing one could hear in the examination room.
ngng answered the questions very fast. She was done when there was still half an hour to go before the end of the exam. Thus, she lay the test paper casually on the table. With her right hand holding her exquisite face, she looked out the window at the basketball court outside. A few high school students were playing basketball there. Staring at them, she was kind of lost in thought.
“High school... And then college?
“When I beco a high school student, I’ll really be a big girl.
“What about when I enter college? I’ll be an adult then.
“What are Mummy and Daddy doing?
“When can Dahei and Little Hei wake up? They lie on the lawn and sleep every day, humph.
“Chen Chuan is about to reach the Qi Strength Level. He’s only six years old.
“The Spring Festival is coming. Hum, where are we going for vacation this ti? Where? Would we travel abroad? Perhaps to Maldives? Singapore? Dubai? Well, I can’t think of an interesting place to go...”
The little girl was wondering about many things. In truth, it was boring to stay in the examination room after all the questions were answered.
There were two teachers invigilating the exam. One was sitting in the front of the room. The other was sitting at the rear. After remaining seated for a while, they felt bored and began to walked back and forth in the room. When the male teacher at the rear saw ngng put down the test paper and stopped working on it, he placed his hands behind his back and walked slowly to the back of the row. He slightly lowered his head and looked at the answers on ngng’s test paper.
“Nice.
“Good job.
“She’s got most of the answers correctly.”
He kept nodding at ngng’s test paper. As a teacher, he liked students who could get good grades.
Just like that, ngng spent that Friday and Saturday taking exams. When the last exam ended on Saturday afternoon, the final examination was officially over.
And the holiday began!
After leaving school, ngng was in high spirits. She put her schoolbag aside and swayed her long legs.
“I’m finally on holiday,” ngng whooped.
.
Seeing her over-the-top gleefulness, Zi Yan glanced at her and coughed warningly.
“I heard that you’ve got a lot of howork for the winter vacation.”
“Buzz!”
ngng’s smile stiffened, and her little face froze in place. Then, with a dark look, she said bitterly,
“Mummy, you did it again! Why do you always have to say such a scary thing when I’m enjoying myself?”
“Hahaha...” Zi Yan’s sweet laughter imdiately rang in the car.
“Humph!”
ngng snorted loudly.
“I was just stating the truth.” Zi Yan smiled and said, “You do have a lot of winter vacation howork to do. Well, if you can get it done by next week, I promise to take you to a particularly fun and exciting place.”
“Huh...”
The surprise ca too abruptly. ngng’s eyes brightened up as she asked, “Is it a relic?”
“No.”
“Then, is it the Kunlun Immortal World?”
“No.”
“The Ancient Mine? The King’s Domain?”
“Wrong again.”
“Huh?” ngng was dazed. “Then which place is it?”
“The least I can tell you is that it’s fun, thrilling, and exciting. I originally planned to take you there when the ti ca. It must be a big surprise to you. But when I thought of your howork, I figured if I didn’t tell you about the trip in advance, you would probably just play during the entire holiday. Thus, after so thought, I decided to tell you about the trip now.” Zi Yan stretched out her fair-skinned palm and affectionately pinched ngng’s tender face.
“Oh, don’t keep guessing. Just tell ,” ngng urged.
“It’s the Lost Continent,” Zi Yan said briskly.
“Where is the Lost Continent?” ngng asked, her big eyes blinking with confusion.
“That’s a... magical land in the Sea Dragon Star Area. Our Earth is hidden in the Sea Dragon Star Area. The Sea Dragon Star Region is vast. There are many planets and enigmatic places in this star area. Well, honey, tell us so magical places.” Zi Yan’s knowledge of the Sea Dragon Star Area was rather limited. Therefore, after making the short introduction, she called Zhang Han, who was behind the wheel, to help her explain.
“Haha.” Zhang Han was amused. Then, he began, “The amazing part is that the Lost Continent is a piece of land floating still in the universe. It’s like the floating land in that ga called Demonic Dragon that you play, only it’s thousands of tis bigger than that in the ga. In addition to the Lost Continent, there are many interesting places in the Sea Dragon Star Area. For example, the Milky Way Waterfall is a huge waterfall in the universe, which is extrely spectacular. Also, there is the Butterfly Planet, on which live all kinds of butterflies. The scenery there is also very beautiful. There are also dwarves, giants... The stories Daddy told you are actually not made-up tales but real events.”
“Eh...?”
ngng’s expression froze. She just looked at Zhang Han in a daze.
“Wow!”
Five seconds later, she finally ca to his senses and shouted, “Really? We’re leaving Earth to travel in the universe? Whoa! Daddy... Eh? But we don’t have a spaceship.”
After saying that, ngng asked suspiciously, “Mummy, are you just fooling ?”
“Why would I fool you? It’s real.” Zi Yan couldn’t help rolling her eyes.
“Then how can we go to other places?” ngng pressed.
“By boat. Soone will take us to space,” Zhang Han said with a smile. “You don’t have to worry about that. With the current technology of the earth, we can’t travel in space yet. Even if we could leave the earth, we wouldn’t be able to find other worlds. Because we can only use a specific thod to go to the Cultivation World.”
“In that case, I’ll definitely focus on doing my howork next week. I’ll finish it all and then go out with you. Mummy, how long will we travel?” ngng asked.
“About a month,” Zi Yan replied.
“Well, hee-hee-hee...” Feeling excited and curious about the upcoming trip, ngng began to giggle in the back seat.
“Daddy, we’ve seen spaceships many tis in science fiction movies. Are there also spaceships in the Cultivation World?” ngng inquired.
“Of course, there are,” Zhang Han replied with a smile. “There are a lot of worlds with advanced technology. Although the strength of a cultivator can be very strong, when the developnt of science and technology reaches a certain level, people can be equally strong with just technology. Take the chanics as an example. An A-list chanic is on par with a whole army. So of them can even suppress masters at the Tribulation Stage. However, with only weapons built from technology, one’s power is very limited. Yet, a chanic martial artist is much more powerful, for he or she has the combined power of technology and personal martial strength. But I don’t know much about this myself. Technology does make people’s life easier. For instance, when traveling from one Star Area to another, many people take warships. The entertaining and dostic installations inside those warships are extrely sophisticated.
“People from different walks of life have their own way to travel. Rich people often have their own strange beast as their ride, such as your Mummy’s little cursed roc. It has a Seed Space where Dahei and Little Hei can be put into. When Tiny Tot has two more epiphanies, we’ll be able to travel in space riding on it and even go to places where many warships can’t reach.”
“It’s amazing.” ngng’s eyes were particularly bright now. She asked, “Is the Cultivation World highly dangerous? For example, if we ride a warship, will we suddenly be blasted by other warships and then fall into the vacuum and can’t breathe?”
“That can’t happen most of the ti. Because in addition to so technological energy defense, these warships are equipped with various defensive formations. They can jump over secondary spaces. Of course, there are also so Space Bandits.” Zhang Han deliberated for a mont and said, “Our world is basically the sa. You can regard the Sea Dragon Star Area as a county of our Hua nation. Cultivators are just like ordinary people. So of them are rich and so are broke. You can compare their strength to people’s figures. So are bulky, which ans they are strong. So are skinny, which shows that they are weak.”
“That’s not right, Daddy. There are many planets in the Sea Dragon Star Area. How can we compare it to a county?” ngng asked curiously.
“Because the Cultivation World is relatively large. In comparison with the Cultivation World, the Sea Dragon Star Area is very small. In terms of scale, it may not even make a county. A planet in it is basically just a community. You will understand this after we visit it a few tis in the future,” Zhang Han replied with a smile.
“Well, it turns out that the Cultivation World is similar to our city. The gist is that there are many interesting places to visit, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then, what exactly are the interesting things there? Are all guns in the world of science and technology laser guns? Are their cars all flying in the sky? Are their buildings as spotless as those in the movies?” ngng asked eagerly.
