Chapter 519 Return to the Main God, Zhan Lan's Death (44)

Inside the hotel, Zhuang Boshi gently exhaled a breath of pure white air.

It was as thin as an arrow, stretching for more than ten feet before dissipating.

Previously, he played Saito Ichika meeting his parents, Zhan Lan slapping his parents in the face, and Zhao Zhuikong storming the Zhao family.

It wasn't for fun.

It was for cultivation.

The Eight-Nine Arcane Arts truly lives up to its reputation as a primordial golden immortal technique that proves the Dao through force.

It's very difficult, but the results after mastering it are incredible.

Not only does it possess various supernatural abilities, but it can also transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements.

The cultivation of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts is mainly divided into "Three Barriers and Six Tribulations".

The three barriers are the physical barrier, the mental barrier, and the spiritual barrier.

The six tribulations are: the tribulation of war, the tribulation of inner demons, the tribulation of change, the tribulation of heavenly thunder, the tribulation of annihilation, and the tribulation of cause and effect.

Besides the three stages, which require taking one step at a time and progressing gradually, so too does the training need to be done step by step.

The six kalpas have no order; everything is realized through the self-realization of conditions and laws.

For example, the Transformation Tribulation requires cultivators to master the art of transformation so that even their closest loved ones cannot detect it.

Clearly, it wasn't enough to just look similar on the surface; he ran into a wall with Saito's mother.

However, Zhuang Boshi's transformation technique successfully fooled the Zhao and Zhan families.

This made him feel that his cultivation of the Transformation Tribulation had taken a step forward.

Even the karmic calamity seems to have loosened somewhat.

He came to realize that change is not just about changing one's appearance.

They also have to bear the consequences of their actions.

For example, Zhao Zhuikong's cause and effect is to destroy the Zhao family.

When he entered the Main God Space, he didn't have time to wipe out the Zhao family, but Zhuang Boshi did it for him and also saved their clones.

This is the cause and effect in the unseen world.

However, the more changes one undergoes, the easier it is to blur one's own nature and make it difficult to distinguish who one truly is.

This is the origin of the cycle of change.

Fortunately, Bosch Zhuang has overcome his inner demons, so these problems are not a big deal.

Even the tribulation of inner demons is considered to have been overcome.

In the final days, Zhuang Boshi did not relax, playing out various aspects of life and experiencing the karmic cycle of cause and effect.

Unexpectedly, it's unclear whether he's a cultivation genius or simply exceptionally suited to cultivating the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

His Eight-Nine Arcane Arts progressed by leaps and bounds, his true essence was abundant, and his nascent soul was solidified; it seemed he was about to enter the primordial spirit stage.

Moreover, he has overcome his inner demons.

Once you have the skill, you will naturally be able to overcome that hurdle.

Soon, the ten days were over.

Eyes open and close.

He returned to the large sphere of light once again.

The team members saw him off as they had done ten days earlier.

"Doctor, Chu Xuan, Haotian, you're all back!" Zheng Zha breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though I know perfectly well that they are unlikely to get into trouble in the real world.

But the shadow cast on him in the real world is simply too great.

Lori almost got hurt in the process.

"What are you worried about?" Zhuang Boshi laughed heartily and patted Zheng Zha on the shoulder.

"This time, we are their honored guests."

"That's good." Zheng Zha said with a dry laugh.

"Doctor, how are my parents?" Saito asked somewhat embarrassedly.

"Very good!" Zhuang Boshi said, "After Uncle and Aunt took the elixir, they immediately regained their vitality and are in excellent health. They could easily live for another fifty years."

"Also, Lao Qi, your reputation has been restored."

"That transnational tomb raiding gang has been wiped out. You are now the director of the National Expert Committee and the deputy director of the Department of Culture of Handong Province, a cadre at the ministerial level!"

"This...this!" Saito's face suddenly turned red.

It was a complete surprise!
As a native of Handong, he never expected that entering the Main God Space would actually fulfill his lifelong wish.

"Thank you, Captain!!" Saito Hajime bowed deeply.

"We're all brothers, no need to be so polite." Zhuang Boshi quickly helped him up.

"Congratulations, Lao Qi, you've become a department-level cadre! That's a huge position!" Zheng Zha said with a teasing smile, bumping Saito Ichi's shoulder.

“A department head? That’s the top official of a city.” Saito Hajime grinned foolishly.

"Hahahaha, I can be a department head too?"

Zhuang Boshi continued to fan the flames: "You have no idea, the farewell party was attended by leaders from three levels, and the banquet lasted for three days and three nights."

"Your name is known throughout the surrounding villages and even the entire city!"

"Heroes who protect cultural relics."

"Saito Hajime!"

Saito didn't even know where to put his hands.

For a moment, he seemed to lose his ability to speak and could only laugh foolishly.

Zhuang Boshi only reported good news and not bad news: Saito's hometown was almost forcibly demolished, his mother was sick and dying, and he was heavily in debt.

My dad killed a thug; let's not talk about that.

To avoid making Saito Kazuya worry.

Zhuang Boshi looked at Zheng Zha with a teasing expression and said with a smile, "Zheng Zha, you've become the vice president of a state-owned enterprise. In terms of rank, you're half a level higher than Saito Hajime."

"Huh?" Zheng Zha was taken aback.

But what does it mean to be half a rank higher than the main hall?

His eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.

"No, it's not!"

"Can this really be done?!"

"Don't worry about me handling things," Zhuang Boshi patted his chest.

"Also, the several million yuan salary we pay you a year was given to your uncle and aunt. It's not much, but it's enough for them to live on."

"correct--"

Zhuang Boshi nodded at Luo Li.

"Luo Li is also listed under your position as vice president, as the board secretary. Her salary isn't much less than yours, and she's given her salary card to her parents!"

"Thank you, Captain!" Lori was so happy she felt like she could fly.

Zheng Zha looked at him strangely. How could Luo Li, who was only fifteen years old, be allowed to receive a salary under her name?

However, PhDs are reliable when it comes to getting things done.

He is adept at interpersonal relationships and considers all aspects carefully.

It makes people feel very comfortable.

He doesn't seem like an engineering PhD student studying future vision at all.

He cleared Saito's name in the way that he and his parents preferred.

Look at Saito Hajime's dizzy state.

It seems to make me even happier than getting a B-level side quest.

After all, his parents and his reputation have always been a wound weighing on his heart.

Zhuang Boshi pointed at Cheng Xiao: "I met your old man. I really don't know how such a rigid soldier could have given birth to such a lively guy like you."

"He cares about you a lot and wants to say a lot to you. It's all in this video. Go back and watch it carefully." Zhuang Boshi tossed Cheng Xiao a USB drive.

Cheng Xiao gave a wry smile: "I guess they're going to lecture me again." "You little rascal, you don't know how lucky you are," Zhuang Boshi said with a laugh.

He turned to look at Wang Xia, who seemed a little nervous: "Wang Xia, your parents are all well."

"I have cured her illness, and with the addition of the elixir, she can live for at least another fifty years. Moreover, I have taken them to the military region under the jurisdiction of Cheng Xiao's father, and asked your former comrades to help take care of them."

"The elderly couple couldn't be happier now."

"Do not worry."

Wang Xia let out a deep breath. He had been a little nervous, afraid of hearing the news of his mother's death.

Thankfully, it's not too late.

"Thank you, Captain."

Zhu Wen asked cautiously, "Captain, is Chiu Chiu alright?"

"Don't worry, that pet hospital is very responsible and didn't abandon your kitten."

Zhuang Boshi said with a smile, "I'm giving Qiuqiu to Cheng Xiao's father to raise now. He feeds her according to the highest standards, and she's even been given the status of a military cat. She's much fatter than before."

"Great!"

Zhu Wen was very happy!
Cheng Xiao gave another bitter smile.

Has my own old man now become a zookeeper?

Zhuang Boshi looked at Ming Yanwei.

Ming Yanwei smiled slightly and said casually, "Doctor, is it my stubborn old man who doesn't want to accept money?"

"This man only cares about archery and honor; he values ​​fame over fortune."

"He probably forgot about me a long time ago."

Her smile seemed sweet, but it was actually bitter.

Zhuang Boshi said, "Ming Yanwei, your father actually rushed to the hospital immediately after you were assaulted."

Ming Yanwei's body trembled slightly.

She pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Then why didn't he show up?"

"Does he think I made him lose face?"

"Not really."

Zhuang Boshi shook his head.

"He's afraid to face you."

"He feels that it was his fault that you ended up like that, that he didn't protect you well."

The smile on Ming Yanwei's face slowly disappeared.

"He spent a year finding those beasts, one by one, skinning them and burning them as lanterns."

"Finally, he completed his revenge and mustered the courage to call you."

"But at that time, you should have entered the Main God Space."

"So, he only got the news of your disappearance from the police."

Ming Yanwei kept her head down, and no one could see what her expression was.

Zhan Lan hugged her tightly, feeling sorry for her.

"He surrendered himself, but because he had killed too many people, he was sentenced to death and the sentence was carried out immediately."

"Then, is he dead?" Ming Yanwei asked, trying to sound casual, but her body was already trembling slightly.

“I pulled her out, she’s fine now.” Zhuang Boshi walked over and placed a USB drive in her hand.

“Take a good look; he told you the truth inside.”

Ming Yanwei remained silent, but gripped the USB drive tightly.

Everyone felt somewhat heavy-hearted.

Those who are more experienced, especially those who know about Ming Yanwei's tragic past, can also feel the weight of her burden.

I never expected that my heartless father, who forced Ming Yanwei to practice archery, would do such a thing.

Pain, guilt, hatred.

No one can say for sure why Ming Bufan didn't go into the ward at that time.

Seeing that everyone seemed rather somber, Zhuang Boshi deliberately said to Zhan Lan, "Our great spiritual power user, our great writer, don't you want to know about your parents?"

Zhan Lan's face instantly turned awkward.

"I have no expectations of them whatsoever."

“I think they might be fighting over the house my grandmother left me even after I’m dead.”

Zhuang Boshi gave a thumbs up: "You have a good eye for people."

"Sigh—" Zhan Lan sighed.

This time it was Ming Yanwei's turn to hug Zhan Lan and comfort her.

Zhan Lan was also suffering.

Others either don't have parents.

Either parental love or care.

How could I have such outrageous parents?

Zhuang Boshi grinned, "So this time, I've put on quite a show for you!"

"What kind of scene?" Zhan Lan's face stiffened, and she immediately had a bad feeling.

Thus, the Zhongzhou team witnessed what it meant for a phoenix to return home in glory, with gongs and drums resounding and firecrackers exploding.

Helicopter parachuted in.

Dozens of Mercedes-Benz cars, hundreds of men in black, and numerous leaders, tycoons, and celebrities attended.

Wherever he went, he was personally received by the highest-ranking local official.

A red carpet was laid out along the way, and elementary school students presented him with flowers, applauded, and sang songs.

In addition, there was that rather abstract speech he gave in front of the national media.

Seeing this scene, Zhan Lan's face turned green.

It's so embarrassing, you could dig a three-bedroom apartment out of your toes.

"Wow—" Zhu Wen's eyes sparkled.

"Sister Zhan Lan, you have such a strong presence."

Zhan Lan's face turned even greener.

"Hahaha." Cheng Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahahaha." Saito Kazuya laughed as well.

"Hahahaha!" Even the usually stern leader couldn't help but laugh.

Instantly, the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"I don't want to go back to reality!" Zhan Lan was on the verge of tears.

She kicked Zheng Zha hard, who was also laughing loudly.

Then, with a cry of pain, he limped back into his room.

That night.

Zheng Zha hugged Luo Li, watching his parents' hours-long rambling on.

Saito Hajime's eyes reddened as he looked at the various expressions of love his parents had shown him.

Wang Xia's eyes were filled with tears.

Even Cheng Xiao looked worried.

Ming Yanwei watched the video.

The elderly man with a full head of white hair paused for ten minutes before softly uttering two sentences.

"Weiwei, I'm sorry."

"You should be happy."

Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face.
