After taking Li Yuqing and the others into the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower, Zeng Shen used the wormhole orbital card to return directly to his room on the second floor of his old home.

As soon as he appeared, Bai Ying, who was cleaning on the second floor, immediately sensed it, ran to his room, and bowed to him, saying, "Master, you've come."

"Well, my parents have been home lately, right?" Zeng Shen said as he walked downstairs.

Bai Ying nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Master. After the prefabricated vegetable factory closed a few days ago, your parents have been staying at home and rarely go out."

"Oh."

Zeng Shen nodded slightly, and as he went downstairs, he used his X-ray vision to check the entire house.

At this moment, his mother was watching the news on TV with a worried expression, while his father was endlessly watching a short drama called "Global Deity Resurrection".

Bai Xia, wrapped in a kitchen coat, was cooking porridge in the kitchen.

Around the house, a person dressed in special security uniform stood ramrod straight at their post.

Without him even thinking about it, he knew that after the confrontation, his home had been placed under government protection to prevent others from harassing his parents.

Thinking of this, Zeng Shen quickly went downstairs and called out to the people below, "Dad, Mom, I'm back."

When his parents heard his voice, they were first taken aback, then stood up excitedly and looked towards the stairwell, where they saw Zeng Shen leading Bai Ying downstairs.

"Ah Shen, you didn't even tell me you were going home. I could have gone to buy you your favorite beef tendon balls first thing this morning," Wu Xian'e said.

"Mom, I also made a sudden decision to come here." Zeng Shen smiled and walked quickly over to stand in front of his parents.

Wu Xian'e pulled Zeng Shen to sit down, pointing urgently at the blaring images on the TV screen: "It's so dangerous outside right now! The whole world is in chaos! Factories in many countries have stopped operating, supermarkets are empty, and many people are saying the world is going to end..."

“Mom, it’s alright. We don’t care what happens to other countries. As long as the fundamentals of Great Xia remain stable, that’s fine,” Zeng Shen said.

"The situation is temporarily stable, but people are filled with anxiety," Zeng Youcai said from the side.

“This is unavoidable.” Zeng Shen agreed, then said, “Dad, the workers at the prefabricated vegetable factory have all been laid off and sent back to their hometowns, right?”

Zeng Youcai put down his phone, nodded and said, "Yes, the pre-made vegetable factory closed down completely a few days ago after Alice distributed the New Year's money. But it's a real pity to give up such a long-running factory like this."

“Haha, Dad, if you can’t bear to part with it, I’ll put a protective shield around the factory, and then you can start it up again after the disaster stabilizes,” Zeng Shen laughed.

“Okay, we’ll talk about it later.” Zeng Youcai said, somewhat tempted. Then he said, “Your uncle’s family came over this morning to ask if the short drama ‘Gods’ Resurrection’ released by Longshen Group was real. They also mentioned that they wanted you to use your connections to buy a cheap, large house in your Longshen New District.”

“They probably saw that their other relatives had also received notices of house purchase from Longshen Group, and that the Great Xia government was taking a hard line against Longshen Group, so they wanted to seek protection,” Zeng Shen said.

Zeng Youcai sensed that his son still harbored resentment towards his uncle's family, so he sighed softly and said nothing more.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian'e immediately changed the subject, saying, "Son, I plan to stay home for a few days this time."

“Hehe, we won’t stay for more than a few days. I’m planning to take you all, along with the relatives who have received the house purchase agreement, to move to Longshen New District with me right now,” Zeng Shen said.

“Uh,” Zeng Youcai exclaimed in surprise, “So fast, so sudden.”

“Yes, Shen, this is so sudden. Moving and packing should take at least a day,” Wu Xian’e said.

Zeng Shen pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "One day is fine."

"Okay, I'll go and inform them now. We'll leave tomorrow morning." Zeng Youcai said, getting up to leave.

“Just say it in the WeChat group,” Zeng Shen said, pausing slightly before continuing, “I have something else to tell you, it’s about Li Yuqing.”

"What is it?" Upon hearing that it was about her daughter-in-law, Wu Xian'e immediately asked. "I met with her parents, and then..." Zeng Shen recounted in one breath the story of Li Yuqing's parents preparing to go to Jinhai to meet them.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian'e immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "Oh, that's great! Let's get engaged this weekend, before the disaster strikes, and then have a grandson for us to take care of. Do you understand?"

“That’s right,” Zeng Youcai echoed.

"Yes Yes Yes."

Zeng Shen nodded, embarrassed. They hadn't even met yet, and they were already eager to have the next generation.

He immediately abandoned his idea of ​​letting Li Yuqing and the others come out of the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower to meet his parents.

Otherwise, given his parents' nature, seeing so many women who weren't related to him, they would definitely nag him all day long.

Zeng Shen spent the rest of his time at his hometown with his parents, while constantly checking the various documents sent by Alice to keep track of the progress of his plans and the status of his believers around the world.

That evening, Zeng Shen's parents invited all the relatives who were preparing to move to their home for dinner.

After a few rounds of drinks, Zeng Shen's third uncle, slightly drunk, asked, "Shen boy, is your company's new city really safer than the air-raid shelters being built in Tongshi?"

“…Yes.” Zeng Shen felt nothing for this third uncle.

"They say online that we're going to become gods and fight aliens! Is that true?" Uncle San, still quite drunk, continued to ask.

Zeng Shen felt ashamed and stopped responding. He got up, had a drink with his uncle and several cousins, said he was drunk, went upstairs to sleep, and left.

After returning to his room, he immediately took out the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower and rushed inside to meet Li Yuqing and the others. Then, citing that it was not suitable for children, he moved the underage Huang Yuxing to the second floor of the tower...

The next day.

After Zeng Shen came out of the Nine Palaces Illusionary Cage Tower, he took the tower and put all the luggage of his parents and relatives, who had been packed and loaded into the car, into the independent area on the third floor of the tower.

Followed by.

He said to the officer in charge of his parents' safety, "Please keep an eye on my parents' prefabricated vegetable factory and my old house for the time being, and don't let anyone else come and cause damage. We will be staying here in the future."

"Yes, please hand it over to us. We will protect everything here." The officer immediately saluted.

“Yes, thank you for your hard work. When the catastrophe is approaching, you can convert the prefabricated vegetable factory into a small shelter for our town. I will be there to set up a protective shield for you so that you can safely get through the catastrophe period,” Zeng Shen said.

"Yes."

The officer's face immediately filled with solemnity, excitement, and joy.

After all, there is a safe haven in the disaster area, and their safety is guaranteed.

Zeng Shen smiled slightly, opened the God interface, and looked at the skill spacetime aiming point inside.

The furthest teleportation distance of the time-space aiming point is one thousand kilometers. He hasn't used it since he set the time aiming point at Shenhuo Manor after the last card draw.

After all, the places I've been to recently are all well over a thousand kilometers away, so I can't use that much.

Now that his hometown is relatively close to Shenhuo Manor, Zeng Shen plans to give it a try.

Immediately, he reached out and clicked on the Time-Space Aim Point skill... (End of Chapter)
