I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Days and months pass like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, another ten days had gone by.

“Ah Sheng!”

“Long time no see!”

Wutong Village.

Vegetable market.

Chen Sheng, who had just finished buying groceries, was carrying two large bags of food ingredients as he walked out of the vegetable market.

Then, a robust voice called out to him.

Chen Sheng looked in the direction of the voice.

A man wearing a white tank top with a Mediterranean hairstyle came towards him with a radiant smile, waving his arm.

“Uh…”

Seeing this person,

Chen Sheng paused for a moment before he slowly nodded in reply.

“Second Uncle, good morning.”

The man was Chen Sheng’s relative, his father’s younger brother.

After his parents’ death,

Chen Sheng left for another province to work.

He had not seen or spoken to relatives from home for about six or seven years.

Moreover, their relationship was not that close to begin with.

Therefore,

After resigning, Chen Sheng had no plans to contact them.

Who knew they would run into each other here.

“You’re a fine young man,”

“not having seen you for so many years. You’ve grown even more handsome.”

In Chen Sheng’s memory,

His Second Uncle was always straightforward and open-hearted.

He seemed familiar with everyone and could strike up a conversation with anyone.

Having not seen each other for a long time,

Second Uncle did not display any unfamiliarity.

He quickly came over and walked beside Chen Sheng, looking at him with amazement and making approving sounds.

Because of his strength,

Chen Sheng’s appearance had become fixed.

And unlike ordinary people, there were no impurities present.

Thus,

He himself looked as if he had just stepped out of a finely retouched photo.

“Maybe it’s because I do less manual work now, so I look younger.”

After many years, their relationship had already become lukewarm.

Facing his Second Uncle’s enthusiastic questions, Chen Sheng did not know what to say and could only respond half-heartedly.

The two walked side by side like this until they reached the entrance of Chen Sheng’s home.

“I’m also doing business outside all year round, and only come back when it’s nearly New Year’s.”

“If I hadn’t seen you, I really wouldn’t have known you were back in Fu Hai.”

Second Uncle looked at Chen Sheng’s house and couldn’t help feeling nostalgic.

No one is made of stone or wood; how can we be without feelings?

Though their relationship was not very close,

the other party after all was Chen Sheng’s father’s brother, who grew up with him since they were young.

For a moment,

he couldn’t help feeling sentimental.

“It’s my fault for being a useless Second Uncle.”

“I owed someone money a few years ago, was barely making it myself, so I neglected you.”

“Leaving you alone all these years, I don’t know how hard your life has been.”

“I’ve let you down, and your father too.”

Second Uncle sighed softly.

As soon as he finished speaking,

he didn’t give Chen Sheng a chance to interject, and the somewhat sad expression on his face quickly faded away.

It was as if he had switched faces.

His eyebrows lifted in an instant.

Although his head was balding,

he seemed quite spirited.

“But now it’s different!”

Second Uncle waved his hand grandly and slapped his chest emphatically.

“You know about that Martial Arts Association business lately, right?”

Martial Arts Association?

Chen Sheng was taken aback again.

If it were something else, he might not be familiar, but the Martial Arts Association…

However, Chen Sheng did not immediately interject.

He just quietly waited for what was to come next.

“You remember Jianwen, right? You two were so close when you were kids.”

Upon hearing this,

Chen Sheng nodded again.

Second Uncle had a son and a daughter.

Jianwen was his son.

Chen Sheng was a little older, and when they were young, he would take Jianwen around to get into mischief.

Today, they might sneak into someone’s fields to steal watermelons.

Tomorrow, they could be sucking nectar from flowers in someone’s backyard.

As a result, they had often been chased by parents wielding clothes hangers.

But as they grew older, the two gradually drifted apart.

“You know about Qi-sensors, right?”

“Now, anyone with this talent is set for life.”

“A few days ago, Jianwen went along with his friends to do the test, just for a bit of excitement.”

“Guess what?!”

Snap!

Second Uncle clapped his hands with force, growing more and more excited as he spoke.

“He’s got the talent too, and it’s a good one. In two days, he can go straight to the Martial Arts Association for training.”

“If nothing goes wrong, he could be on the government’s payroll in the future.”

“With Jianwen’s ability, maybe he could climb up the ranks step by step and end up being a high official.”

At this point,

The smile on Second Uncle’s face couldn’t be concealed any longer; he looked just like a mischievous child.

“Here, add me on WeChat!”

“I wasn’t much of an uncle before.”

“But from now on, if you run into any difficulties in life, just look for your Second Uncle.”

“I’ll make sure everything is sorted out for you!”

“If you want to find a job, say at the Wu’an Bureau or the Martial Arts Association or something, Jianwen can pull some strings for you later.”

“Being on the government’s payroll, you’ll at least live a steady life, right?”

While speaking,

Second Uncle naturally took the bags from Chen Sheng’s hand, tilted his chin to indicate for him to take out his phone.

“….”

Although the other party meant well,

And was also a relative,

Chen Sheng wasn’t so unapproachable.

He could only take the bags back from Second Uncle’s hand with one hand while taking out his phone.

With a beep,

Just like that,

Chen Sheng’s WeChat contact list, which until now had only four people, had one more person who wanted to help him get a job at the Martial Arts Association—his Second Uncle.

As for the other four?

Apart from a cactus,

The remaining three were

Li Wuji, the President of the Martial Arts Association,

Sun Yihe, the Vice-Chairperson of the Martial Arts Association,

And Vermilion Bird, one of the Four Saints of the Holy Sect, also an Association Committee Member.

“Alright, I’m heading back now.”

“Contact me on WeChat if you need anything!”

After adding on WeChat,

Second Uncle waved his hand and went his own way towards another part of the village,

Just as he had walked towards Chen Sheng when he first saw him.
