Chapter 433: A Deity Realm Superhuman Teaches Him

“Ow ow ow! Big Brother Zhao, be gentler! My bones are about to break because of you!” Meng Chao grimaced. “I know you’re excited, but you don’t have to use that much strength, right?”

Zhao Feixuan let him go, feeling a little embarrassed. Then, he hit chest. “Tell me honestly, did you join the abnormal beast research department a long time ago?”

“Nope,” Meng Chao said. “But I did work proactively with the related departments, because that’s the duty of every Dragon Citizen. I’m sorry, Big Brother Zhao. I didn’t tell you early because of confidentiality issues…”

“I got it. Blue Home was making a lot of noise, so it was bound to catch the related departments’ attention!”

They were all smart people. Gao Ye did cause an accident in Spirit Creation Creatures. Even though they fooled most of the normal citizens by saying that it was an experimental accident, Zhao Feixuan was well-informed, so it was only natural that he knew a bit of inside information.

Later on, Meng Chao’s Superstar bought Spirit Creation Creatures. This act of swallowing a big corporation was suspicious no matter how anyone looked at it. When Zhao Feixuan thought about it carefully, it was not difficult for him to figure out Meng Chao’s background.

But even though that was his background, they were still friends. Besides, Meng Chao had saved his entire family. This alone made Zhao Feixuan feel that even if Meng Chao were the director of the abnormal beast research department, it would not be a problem.

In fact, when Meng Chao did not deny it, he became excited and threw an arm around Meng Chao’s shoulder to drag him to a corner. He whispered, “Tell me, what’s with the ambush on Noble Descent Hotel this time? I heard that some people from the nine great cultivation families were in cahoots with abnormal beasts?”

“Where did you get that information from? Big Brother Zhao, don’t believe it,” Meng Chao said sternly. “The nine great cultivation families shouldn’t be lumped together and slapped with a stereotype. Even if there are a handful of rotten eggs in there, it doesn’t mean that the conflict between the Colonization Party and the Home Party has intensified to the point that we can’t achieve harmony.

“Big Brother Zhao, the higher-ups are paying a lot of attention to this case, and they will definitely get to the bottom of this so that they can uphold justice for the victims. Since we’re at this crucial point of time, Blue Home and all of the Home Party can’t act rashly!”

“Don’t you worry your pretty little head over it. Everyone knows that I have just gotten myself a son and daughter. There’s no way I’ll be rash.” Zhao Feixuan grinned. “In any case, the Home Party is the victim in this matter, and we have justice on our side. We just have to wait patiently for the higher-ups and see what sort of justice they will give us.

“We aren’t asking for much, but at the very least, they should give us more money and resources for the upgrading of the defense systems of the old and small residential areas as well as other defensive projects, right?

“I really didn’t expect that the competition would open up in this sort of manner. Meng Chao, if the Home Party really rises to power, you will be the top contributor. I’ve already spoken to a few of the leaders in the Home Party, and all of them admire you a lot. They’re asking whether there will be a chance for them to work with Superstar or the Broken Star Club. If you’re free on the weekend, why don’t we gather together so that we can thank you properly?”

Meng Chao thought about it and agreed to it happily.

“Also, didn’t I mention last time that I hope that you’d become the thirteenth member of Blue Home’s committee? You said that you’d go back and think about it carefully. Well, have you thought about it?” Zhao Feixuan asked with an intense gaze. “We’re really sincere about it, and we will welcome you with open arms.”

“Well…” Meng Chao said. “Are you okay with it, even if I’m working for the abnormal beast research department?”

“What are you saying? The abnormal beast research department is an investigation department set up by the government. Blue Home is also a legally registered mutual aid and public welfare organization. Forget about the fact that you’re helping the research department, even if you were a licensed investigator, our doors would still be open for you!”

Zhao Feixuan smiled. “We’re not doing anything that makes us feel guilty, so there’s no need for us to be afraid of ghosts haunting us for our sins… Um, of course, you’re not a ghost… Anyway, you understand what I’m saying, right?”

“Yeah. But I’m not a full member of the Home Party. You know that, right?” Meng Chao asked gravely. “Though I want the tunnel between Earth and the Other World to be opened, just like all of you, and I also agree that Dragon City needs to pour more resources into normal people, I’m afraid I can’t agree with the idea of building a wall around Monster Mountain Range to surround Dragon City so that we can go to sleep without worry.

“Regardless of whether it’s on Earth or the Other World, there’s just no fortress or defense line that will never fall. If we really had enough resources to build this super defense line, I’d rather pour those resources into upgrading the armored airships so that we can attack first and burn the enemy’s lands. Are you sure that’s alright?”

“It’s fine. Let me tell you a small secret. Honestly, most of the Home Party members and I have never really thought about carrying out the super defense line plan,” Zhao Feixuan said mysteriously.

“Wha?” Meng Chao was a little stunned. “But last time, during the gatherings, you always said that—”

“We’re just running our mouths off!” Zhao Feixuan explained. “This is just a way of doing things. Let’s say you have a house that doesn’t have any windows. Suddenly, you say that you want to have a window in it. Many people will object to your idea because of it.

“But if you first say that you want to smash a hole in the ceiling or even demolish the entire house before rebuilding, the other people will definitely be shocked. After negotiations, you’ll make do for the second best and say you want to make a window instead. Then, it’ll sound much more reasonable, right?

“The main proposal of the Home Party works on the same logic. In the past, the Colonization Party’s ideals were the mainstream, and no matter how many logical suggestions the Home Party brought up, most of them were rejected.

“Since they’re going to be rejected anyway, it wouldn’t it be better if we threw out a plan that sounds really grand, will need one hundred years to be carried out, require an astronomical amount of resources, and is just impossible? Then it’ll be fine even if this plan is rejected. At the very least, our next plan or the plan after next will be considered more serious and plausible, right?

“So, right from the start, this plan to build a super defense line to surround Monster Mountain Range was just to provide cover for projects such as upgrading the defense systems in old and small residential areas.

“We’re much more logical than you think we are, so you don’t have to worry.”

“I see…” Meng Chao released a sigh of relief and observed Zhao Feixuan’s expression seriously. Once he was certain that he was straying further away from becoming one of the ten great lost people of Dragon City in his previous life, he nodded. “As long as you don’t mind it, I’m fine with becoming the thirteenth member based on my principles. We can talk about it further when I meet up with all of you on the weekend.”

“That’s great! With you as the leader of the Broken Star Club, the youngest Heaven Realm superhuman in Dragon City, and the superhuman with the fastest speed in climbing up the cultivating realms over the past ten years joining us, Blue Home will be like a tiger with wings!”

Zhao Feixuan slapped Meng Chao’s shoulder hard and said happily, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to meet Professor Lu. We’ll see what sort of treasures the old man will bring out from his pocket to thank you for saving his life!”

Professor Lu Tianxing was completely different from Black Tortoise Zong Yue, whom Meng Chao had met before, and a martial artist like Broken Sword Ye Xiaoyue, even though they were all Deity Realm superhumans.

Aside from having white hair despite having a baby face and looking hale and hearty because his skin gave off a crystalline shine, Meng Chao could not quite sense a powerful superhuman’s presence from him.

In fact, since his brain was too big, his messy white hair was like a bird’s nest on his head, causing him to look like the mad scientists who often appeared in TV dramas.

But his eyes, which were as deep as the ocean, shone with a sparkle that was like the stars. It was as if there were intangible tiny galaxies hidden in those eyes.

When Meng Chao saw them, he was immediately drawn in by those eyes.

The world around him instantly vanished, and it was as if the entire ward had been reduced to atoms before it was reconstructed into a vast ocean. Billions of stars surrounded him and circled him slowly. The light from the stars was like a warm stream that flowed into his sulci.

He had experienced a similar situation when he faced Black Tortoise Zong Yue.

Compared to the illusion created by the dean of Agricultural University’s martial arts course, Professor Lu Tianxing’s illusion was more exquisite and gentle. It did not carry a single hint of life or murderous intent. Instead, it caused Meng Chao to feel a sense of peace and quiet that he had never experienced before. Eeven when he remembered the apocalypse, his soul was no longer agitated.

“I heard from the abnormal beast research department that you feel like there’s something off about you, but they can’t figure out what’s wrong?” Professor Lu Tianxing stepped on the stars with his hands behind his back. He stared at Meng Chao with a worried look on his face. “Your senses are right. Your soul is heavily damaged. I’ve never seen… such a wounded soul before. Looks like the mastermind’s mind attack left really severe complications.

“I’m sorry, Meng Chao. You ended up in this state because you tried to save me.”

A thought popped up in Meng Chao’s mind.

He had now met two Deity Realm superhumans, but Professor Lu walked down the path of research. Even though he was far from Black Tortoise Zong Yue’s level when it came to his physical body, he naturally had his own secret techniques that would allow him to stand at the top when it came to the area of cultivating his spirit, soul, and brain.

Even if these secret techniques could not be used in real battles, they were definitely very useful in increasing his calculation abilities, deduction abilities, and his brain’s potential.

Professor Lu did not know that Meng Chao’s soul had shattered because the soul that returned to the past could not fuse with his current soul. After it was attacked by the nightmare of the apocalypse, it became even more damaged, but that damage was not actually dealth by the Demonic Abyss Eye.

But it was difficult to explain this, so Meng Chao could only scratch his head in the illusion and say something like he was different from normal university students. He had been beaten down by society, so his resistance was really strong. Such small injuries were really nothing to him.

Lu Tianxing smiled faintly at him. The starlight turned into a warm glow that surrounded Meng Chao’s body. It gently swept through his sulci to massage his cerebral cortex. It felt so comfortable that he grunted.

The agitation he felt from Apocalypse Version Meng Chao, who was residing deep within him, was appeased, an his brain started spinning slowly together with the stars.

“Twenty years ago, before the Supernatural Tower was built, I found a shattered crystal while exploring the depths of the ancient ruins. Then, from it, I came to understand a secret technique that focuses on cultivating the brain and soul. Even though it didn’t increase my fighting power, it helped me understand the world and myself. It’s also very good when it comes to treating wounds related to the soul.”

Lu Tianxing smiled and said, “Meng Chao, I’ll be receiving treatment in the hospital for a week. If you’re interested, you can come over every day and we can talk about the secrets of soul cultivation.”
