Chapter 403: 376: You’ve Changed
Feng Changning looked in the direction of Hidden Spirit Island, feeling deeply moved.
Ever since she became the Empress in that small world, she had to calculate gains and losses with anyone.
Xu Fan’s move left her a bit at a loss, doesn’t he need to be on guard?
“Great Master, I will definitely repay the favor I owe you in the future,” Feng Changning murmured.
“Sister Changning, the Great Master already got his reward,” Little Ling said.
The little boy next to them also nodded.
As far as Xu Fan is concerned, having those Merits and Qi Fortune is enough.
“No, that’s only part of it,” Feng Changning said.
At this moment, tens of thousands of miles away from Nine Phoenix Island, a Generation Green Robed Swordsman and a God Transformation Stage Heavy Armored Puppet flew up from the Little Thousand World.
“I’m finally back,” Shi Zhan looked at the surrounding water protection array and said.
After Shi Zhan was forced to enter the Little Thousand World, he kindly spread the news that a Fusion-period demon beast guarded the Upper Realm’s intersection. Leaving would mean certain death.
A small matter originally, but it resulted in all the major sects in the Little Thousand World chasing after him.
Only after encountering this God Transformation Heavy Armored Puppet was he able to escape.
The puppet from the Upper Realm also semi-proved Shi Zhan’s words.
“Eh, this teleportation array looks a bit different,” Shi Zhan said, walking towards the teleportation array.
Shi Zhan used his divine sense to communicate with the array, only to find nothingness.
“Has the teleportation array malfunctioned?” Shi Zhan said with a frown. This isn’t good news. There may be Mahayana-level demonic beasts in this ocean territory.
Just then, a Jade Slip suddenly appeared, floating in front of Shi Zhan.
“Have all the teleportation arrays in the Cultivation World malfunctioned?” Shi Zhan exclaimed after reading the information in the Jade Slip. Some excitement could be heard in his voice, he knew that if this was true, then Changning would have a chance to rise in chaos.
He activated his Communication Magical Weapon and silently sent a message before sitting in the defense array, blankly looking at the endless sea outside and fantasizing about the day when Feng Changning would achieve success and dominate the Cultivation World.
Three days later, a Little Sea Boat with a concealed array arrived in front of Shi Zhan.
Feng Changning stood at the bow of the ship, exchanging glances with Shi Zhan across the distance.
“I’ve waited for you for a long time.” Feng Changning’s eyes bore a trace of thoughtfulness, and her gaze at Shi Zhan was only filled with the excitement of an old servant returning to their rightful place.
“I almost couldn’t come back,” Shi Zhan replied as he looked at Feng Changning. The affection in his eyes was evident even to a fool.
Standing behind Feng Changning, Yufeng started looking at Shi Zhan with an unfriendly gaze.
Looking at Shi Zhan’s undisguised gaze, Feng Changning was stunned for a moment. Shi Zhan’s previous love for her was deeply concealed, filled with an indescribable repressed feeling. Now that it had become so transparent, she felt a bit unaccustomed.
“You’ve changed.”
“When I was running for my life in that world, I figured out a lot of things,” Shi Zhan said with a smile.
In that Little Thousand World, Shi Zhan had come close to death several times. During those moments, he kept pondering one question – why didn’t he pursue Feng Changning in the first place?
“Let’s go back. There are still many things we need to do at home,” Feng Changning said.
“Alright,” Shi Zhan laughed.
At the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan was accompanying Senior Brother Sha to research an alloy, using spirit mines commonly found in the Linsen Immortal City Region.
“Senior Brother Sha, you seem a bit off recently,” Xu Fan said as he looked at the absent-minded Sha.
“The teleportation array in the Cultivation World is malfunctioning, and now messages can’t be sent out. I don’t know how my dad and little sister are doing,” said the fool.
The fool’s words stirred up Xu Fan’s ancient memories. He wondered if his gentle senior female apprentice had married or not.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Sha. The Medicine King Sect is one of the top alchemy sects in the Central Continent, nothing will go wrong,” Xu Fan consoled.
At this moment, the alloy within the furnace was fully forged.
Xu Fan took the alloy out and passed it to the puppet beside him, saying, “Go and test it.”
“Yes sir,” Pu Tao’s voice echoed.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Sha. This situation won’t last for long. Besides, there’s an even more important point,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“What’s the most important thing?” the fool curiously asked.
“From your face, one can tell that Senior Brother Sha is a person blessed with wealth and happiness. Your fate is likewise,” Xu Fan said.
At this moment, Xu Fan suddenly realized something was wrong. If the teleportation arrays throughout the Central Continent were malfunctioning and his wife ran a little further, then wouldn’t he be doomed?
Hearing Xu Fan’s words, the fool was delighted, while Xu Fan himself became depressed.
“Great Master, what’s wrong with you?” Seeing Xu Fan’s sudden switch to a gloomy expression, the fool asked with concern.
“It’s nothing. I realized that most of my disciples are married, and I’m just happy,” Xu Fan replied carelessly.
“Alright, let’s continue,” said the fool.
At the Hidden Spirit Sect Academy, a hundred thousand children streamed out of the main academy gate. Orders of parents searching for their kids were waiting outside with anticipation.
“Hu’er, dad’s over here,” said the middle-aged butcher, waving his hand.
“You don’t need to come. I can take the spirit car and go home by myself,” said Li Leihu, trying in vain to mask his excitement.
“You little rascal, I just missed you. I happened to have some free time, so I came over to pick you up,” the middle-aged butcher replied with a chuckle. His affection for his child was clear to see.
At a large plaza outside the academy, numerous spirit cars were parked. They were like electric cars from Xu Fan’s past life, just needing a little bit of spiritual power to traverse the entire Hidden Spirit Island.
“Wow, dad, how many spirit stones did you spend on this spirit car?” asked Li Leihu excitedly, sitting in the spirit car.
“A hundred spirit stones. When I have free time, I drive this with your mom and grandma for a trip. It’s actually quite convenient,” said the middle-aged butcher with laughter, feeling that these are the best days of his life.
“Dad, I have a gift for you,” said Li Leihu, taking out a Storage Bag as if it were a precious treasure.
“This is a reward from my teacher for my good performance at the academy,” Li Leihu said with pride.
“Really!” The middle-aged butcher held the Storage Bag like a god statue. He planned to hang it in the most conspicuous place at home after getting back.
“Of course, I’m the fastest learner of magic spells in the academy,” said Li Leihu, raising his head proudly.
“My son is the best,” the middle-aged butcher said with pride.
The father-son pair happily returned home.
In the game, the middle-aged butcher manipulated a puppet to grind monster levels with his son.
Li Leihu, wearing a small Taoist robe, was making hand signs to cast a spell nearby.
“Fireball Technique!” Li Leihu roared, and a fireball the size of a basketball was shot towards a group of small monsters.
At this moment, the monster-killing puppet leapt high, intending to unleash a sweeping Big Move on the whole area, but it hit Li Leihu’s Fireball Technique head on.
“Dad, did you just say you’re one of the top players in this game?”
