Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 604 Going Home
The brand-new Gulfstream G700 left an unusually prominent contrail high in the sky and began to descend under the pilot's guidance.

The three little ones sat excitedly by the window, looking down at the ground getting closer and closer through the round porthole.

The stunning housekeeper now has her own name, which she chose for herself after watching TV dramas and movies: "Helen."

This is the name of a beautiful woman in ancient Greek mythology, which sparked the Trojan War—yes, the Trojan Horse that left the people of Tokyo University scratching their heads, unable to understand for three days and three nights why the plan succeeded, why they dragged the giant wooden horse left by the enemy into the city, and even dismantled the city gates for it.

By the way, Helen's daily life is quite refined, much like the husband's hard work outside, which led to the purchase of a large villa, but the time he spends living there is not even a fraction of what the nanny spends.

Moreover, Helen's intelligence is increasing with each upgrade of Awoo. In fact, she should not be described as an android, but rather as a digital life form. She watches soap operas, exercises, takes care of her skin (using an android skincare kit), and updates her database.

Aside from always trying to get into Li Xia's bed to fulfill her "factory duty," Li Xia was quite satisfied with her; at least she was a very competent housekeeper.

So Li Xia brought her along this time, at least it would be good to do some grocery shopping and housework.

"Get ready, we're almost there."

Li Xia looked down at the myriad lights below and turned to speak.

The three little ones cheered, just like children about to go on a spring outing, filled with indescribable excitement.

"Mom, I haven't boarded the plane yet. Don't worry, I'll definitely be able to get home for the New Year!"

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the waiting area, Xiao Wang listened to the rambling conversation on the other end of the phone, but instead of feeling annoyed, he was filled with the joy of going home.

No matter how hard life is outside, or how long you've toiled like a beast of burden, returning home feels like returning to the wilderness where you were born.

Happily, I hung up the phone, glanced down at my boarding pass one last time, and counted down the time while waiting for the announcement.

But then his gaze was inevitably drawn to the view on the wide tarmac.

A long convoy of cars drove directly onto the tarmac from outside. Xiao Wang was taken aback. Although he had heard of people being able to drive their cars directly into the airport to pick up guests, for example, he had seen his boss book VIP pick-up services for important guests.

But such a long convoy was clearly beyond his comprehension.

"Wow, an L5 national gift!"

The middle-aged man next to me was leaning against the window, clicking his tongue and talking. His love of watching the excitement quickly filled the area in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the waiting hall with people.

"Which young master has returned with such a grand entourage? Must be a disciple of the Heavenly Palace?"

"Young Master? A whole fleet of Audis with red and blue lights, a yellow Coaster, and an L5 with a flag hanging on it. Does the Young Master have this kind of status? Dream on. This is obviously a foreign visit or a top official has arrived."

Some seasoned keyboard warriors immediately refuted this, but many more people raised their phones, as if performing some kind of mysterious ritual, transforming the scene before them into a 'loving family' or a strange story on social media.

When the brand-new Gulfstream private jet swooped down and finally came to a slow stop, even seasoned keyboard warriors were dumbfounded, because a sea of ​​people in black suits, tall and short, fat and thin, men and women, and even some in uniforms, were all rushing towards the front.

Although the faces of the people getting off the plane were not clearly visible, it was still possible to distinguish a man, a woman, and three children.

This doesn't look like a foreign visit at all.

"Damn, it must be the young master!"

Modern mobile phones are different from those of the past; some can even see lunar craters, and they become very clear after being zoomed in slightly.

Black hair, T-shirt, shorts.
Just as the crowd was getting excited and busy editing various articles to spread the word, airport security guards who had received the news came over and separated the crowd, which naturally led to another round of noise.

But the people waiting to pick them up below neither know nor care what happened up there. When one person's power surpasses that of a real collective, or even surpasses that of a nuclear bomb, then no amount of courtesy is excessive.

How powerful is the codename Immortal 001? Putting aside everything else, the divine dragon alone, which has led some to secretly seek the path to immortality, is capable of changing the course of an unprecedented super storm.

The energy released by a super typhoon is equivalent to 10 Hiroshima atomic bombs per second. Isn't the power that can change the course of such a typhoon terrifying?
Not to mention that 'Immortal001' cleaved the sky with a single sword strike, directly splitting the clouds in the sky. This sword light even stretched for hundreds of kilometers, cutting everything in its path in two. Anyone who just thought about the terrifying damage that this sword would cause if it struck a city would break out in a cold sweat and become parched.

Therefore, in order to deal with Xian001, a special office was set up, called the 'Xian001 Office', or 'Xian Office' for short!
Therefore, Zhang Xun decided to personally assume the role of director of the "Immortal Office." By holding this position, which was at the sixth level of the covert front, Zhang Xun had already elevated the entire "Immortal Office" to an exaggerated level.

"It's coming soon, just like I said before."

Director Zhang turned around and said with a serious expression:
"This person may not be needed, but we must show our attitude fully. We don't seek merit, but only to avoid mistakes!"

Imagine you're holding an atomic bomb in your hands, the kind that could explode at any moment, understand?

The selected elites took a deep breath and nodded emphatically:

"understand!"

When he turned around again, he had already used the "warm and welcoming smile technique" that he hadn't used in a long time, taking the principle of "you can't hit a smiling person" to the extreme.

Leaning forward, he stretched out his hands from dozens of meters away, his leather shoes shuffling rapidly on the ground.

"Welcome, welcome home!"

Aowu stared blankly at the enormous number of people in front of him.
"This is so enthusiastic!"

Li Xia calmly looked at the smiling old man who had extended his hands and shook them naturally. Even though the old man looked like a hospitable and charitable old man, Li Xia's senses were extremely sharp. He could clearly feel that this was a warrior who had seen a lot of blood and whose bones were filled with resilience.

He even knew why the person in front of him was so enthusiastic; his own strength wouldn't make Zhang Xun submit, and at worst, he would just die.

But the hundreds of millions of people behind Zhang Xun can, and they can live a stable life.

Li Xia has always respected such warriors, just as he has respected the warriors in every world he has traveled through who refused to surrender even when faced with annihilation.

“Mr. Li, welcome home. I am Zhang Xun, you can just call me Lao Zhang. I will take care of all your affairs in China.”

Zhang Xun finally got his wish and shook hands. The moment they touched, he felt a chill. As an extremely experienced warrior, he could usually accurately assess the opponent's strength as soon as they made contact. But at this moment, he felt as if he were holding a piece of warm, elastic jade. This unprecedented feeling made him secretly remember it.

An ancient saying goes: "The appearance of a celestial being is extraordinary; his nails have jade-like nails, his teeth and ribs are even, his face has jade-like essence, and his body emits a purple light."
Zhang Xun carefully glanced at him. He hadn't noticed anything else yet, but Li Xia's condition was indeed very peculiar. Generally speaking, fair skin gives people a sense of fragility, but he carried a sense of weight and strength. He truly had jade-like nails and a jade-like face.

Could it be that he has truly become an immortal?

Li Xia had no idea what Zhang Xun was thinking, nor did she care. Her gaze swept across the extravagant convoy, finally settling on the last vehicle, a GL8 minivan that was usually used for security purposes and had a relatively large capacity.

"We don't need so many cars, just that one will do."

Li Xia pointed to the GL8. He didn't like this somewhat ostentatious approach. To be precise, if he really used this kind of convoy to go home, it would be difficult to have peace and quiet afterwards. He would probably encounter all sorts of people with ulterior motives trying to get close to him.

While it's possible to clear out the surrounding area or simply replace everyone with so-called 'security personnel,' it would be better to just go back to live on an island.

"okay!"

Director Zhang waved his hand, and the GL8 pulled up. Li Xia nodded to him and got into the car. Director Zhang followed discreetly. Li Xia glanced at him but didn't speak. Director Zhang was secretly pleased. He coughed softly, pretending he knew nothing, and asked with concern:
"Mr. Li, where are we going?" "Jinhua Residential Area"

The car started very smoothly; the driver was a master, and the start was exceptionally steady.

Director Zhang looked at the three unusually-looking children in the car and asked hesitantly:

"Sir, these three children—"

"You're the little kid! Grandpa Long is much older than you!"

Awoo crossed his arms and snorted:
"Xiao Zhang, we just spoke on the phone. Has my studio been relatively quiet lately?"

"you are."

Director Zhang was horrified, his eyes widening slightly:

"Dragon Lord? Oh dear, I am but a mortal and cannot recognize a true immortal. Please forgive me, Dragon Lord. Your studio is progressing smoothly, and we are here to oversee everything."

A storm was brewing in his heart. Old Zhang was also highly educated. According to scientific theory, the energy involved in transforming from a dragon's body to a human body is astronomical. Even with all the research that humans have done, they can only achieve the atomic level of matter conversion, which still requires a huge amount of energy.

Now, a dragon has transformed into a human, so vibrant and beautiful. Apart from myths and legends, Old Zhang can't think of any other possibility.

Could it be that spiritual energy has revived?
Why didn't you include me in the evolution process?
His composure allowed him to barely suppress his shock, and he looked at the other two children, now that the Dragon Lord had transformed into human form.

So these two
"Could it be Mr. Cat and Mr. Dog?"

"Meow is a black charcoal!"

Black Charcoal habitually raised one of its 'claws'.

Xiaotian, squatting on his seat, stuck out his tongue:

"Woof woof is hungry."

Good heavens, they've all transformed into human form!
Director Zhang was so shocked he felt like he was about to break the heavens; even the car shook, clearly the driver had heard it too.

"Cough cough!"

Director Zhang coughed softly as a reminder, suppressing his shock and forcing a smile:

"I'm getting old, and my mind is a bit slow. I couldn't recognize a few of them right away. Please forgive me."

As for the last beautiful woman, he didn't even ask her; one shouldn't ask what one shouldn't ask.

"Director Zhang—"

Li Xia turned her gaze away from the car window and said with a smile:

"I would like to reiterate my demands."

"You say"

Old Zhang immediately sat up straight.

"I'm just going home and want to stay here for a while. I don't need protection or a lot of people around me. I'll contact you if I need anything."

Furthermore, you don't need to worry that I will cause damage or instability.

No matter what, this is my home, and I will exercise the utmost restraint. If anything happens, I will contact you first.

"Yes, yes, don't worry about that. If someone is really blind, we won't need you to step in. We will definitely not let them get away with it."

Director Zhang was overjoyed; what Li Xia said had almost completely resolved all his biggest worries.

All talk of benefiting from others' connections or leveraging their power is meaningless. The most important thing is that this powerful figure doesn't act recklessly and cause harm to the public.

This is the foundation of everything; everything else is just fluff on top of that foundation!

As long as it doesn't disrupt our lives, money, beautiful women, and special privileges are all negotiable!

"Is my identity okay? Can I go on trips and such?"

Although it can be modified using technical means, it's really not as useful as just getting an identity directly.

"No problem at all!"

Old Zhang answered with unusual decisiveness. He also took out a few cards from his pocket. They looked shiny black and even reflected unique colors. In the center of the cards was a coiled dragon that looked exactly like Aowu.

"Sir, please take these cards. There is a billion in the savings card and no limit on the credit card, and no repayment is required. Sir, you still need these worldly things when you are in the world. This is just a small token of our appreciation."

These cards are completely custom-made, one of a kind in the country, with no other numbers. Although they are said to have no limit, in reality, every transaction is subject to review by an entire audit team to ensure the funds are used properly.

This isn't about preventing Li Xia from taking advantage of his power, but rather about preventing someone from abusing their power for personal gain or deceiving others. As for how much Li Xia can spend, let him spend it. The value of things on Earth is only so high. If he can spend hundreds of millions or billions, then it's considered loosening monetary policy and stimulating consumption.

This small amount of water is nothing compared to the vastness of the domestic market; it won't even make a ripple.

If he could actually spend his money on those small vendors in his daily life, Old Zhang would be so happy to award him a medal.

This is like someone spending tens of millions of yuan on a food street. What does that mean? It increases the income of countless families. We couldn't be happier!

"Ah."

Li Xia took the card, pondered for a moment, and decided to reciprocate. He nodded to Aowu, and Xiaolong flipped his hand, revealing a clear vial of medicine in his palm. This was a gene transcription medicine, a commonly used medicine in Tier 1, with relatively low technological content.

The apostle used this to treat the injury, which was not too serious.

"Here, I won't take your money for nothing. This thing can regenerate limbs. Take it back and study it."

Aowu tossed the potion into Old Zhang's hand.

Old Zhang, on the other hand, held the medicine with trembling hands, as if it were a precious treasure.
