Chapter 1848

~5 min read 942 words

Su Xiao: "??? You've got enough grain from one cave heaven to eat until the end of the world—buying ten cave heavens to farm? Are you serious?"

Luo Wei: "Food is the people's first priority. More grain is always better. You know, our nation's history has seen too many famines—I'm still afraid."

Ye Hei: "That's true. Stockpiling grain won't hurt. If we ever encounter a world short on food, we can sell some to new members."

Luo Wei: "Selling? Everyone in the group is family—giving away hundreds of millions of tons won't be an issue."

Alice: "Wow, Brother Luo Wei is so generous."

Komugi: "Alice can farm too! Your cave heaven is big enough to grow plenty of spirit herbs and grain."

Alice: "Huh? Really? That's wonderful!"

Foshan.

Ye residence.

Ye Wen practiced his fists while checking the Shangcheng points.

"I wonder when I'll ever gather enough points to buy a technique."

Though he already had Liu Maoxing's dishes, which had utterly transformed his strength—and even his wife had benefited, gaining extraordinary power—

But this was already the age of guns and cannons.

Physical strength alone gave Ye Wen no sense of security.

The future held nuclear bombs, far more terrifying in power.

Only by reaching the Land Immortal realm could he become the strongest in this era, possessing the power to reshape the world's balance.

Otherwise, beneath the tide of history, his current strength was no different in essence from what he had before.

"Thinking about the chat group again?"

Zhang Yongcheng walked in carrying a tray, asking softly.

Ye Wen nodded: "According to historical records, the future world will descend into chaos. My strength is negligible—I can't guarantee my family's safety. Besides, the Japanese invaders have seized our Shanhe and killed our brothers and sisters—how can I just sit idle?"

Zhang Yongcheng nodded, sighing gently: "If you're truly worried, why not ask the group? I'm sure they'd lend you some points."

"Didn't you say people often borrowed points in the group before?"

Ye Wen froze, then shook his head: "I can't bring myself to ask. I'll just wait and save up."

The world has all kinds of people.

Some, when in trouble, readily borrow money to get through.

Some borrow and never repay, believing it's a sign of cleverness.

Others feel it's wrong even to consider borrowing.

Ye Wen is the latter.

"Well, it's still far from danger!"

As he thought this, a commotion sounded outside.

Zhang Yongcheng raised an eyebrow: "Probably another challenger has come. Go deal with him. Don't bring him home—you'll mess up the house."

Ye Wen's expression shifted. He nodded, rose, and walked out.

Moments later, when he returned, his expression had grown serious.

"According to the chat group, the plot has begun," Ye Wen frowned. "Looks like I have no choice but to borrow."

Face matters, but so do my life, my wife's, and my son's.

At a critical moment, Ye Wen no longer hesitated.

Borrowing is bad—debts of gratitude are hard to repay.

But compared to my family's lives, these things mean nothing.

Chat group.

Ye Wen: "The plot has begun here. Anyone able to lend me some points? I'll repay you in the future."

Luo Wei: "【Red packet】 No big deal—Ye Master, take it first, heh. I grew up watching your movies. By the way, when you take on the Japanese, record a video—I love watching."

Komugi: "Yay!"

Miko: "6"

Ye Wen: "Recording a video—won't anyone in the group object?"

Su Xiao: "Who objects? Invaders deserve death."

Ushio: "Good. Ye Master, act freely—no one in the group will object."

Suzume: "Empathizing with those who slaughter others in foreign lands—isn't that as vile as being an invader myself? I fully support Ye Master defending his homeland."

Ye Wen: "Thank you all for understanding."

【Ding, Ye Wen received Luo Wei's red packet.】

Ye residence.

With the points, Ye Wen opened the chat group, found the technique he'd long wanted—the Dragon God Art.

This technique excelled in offense and mobility, thoroughly refined by the Dao Lord, perfectly suited to him.

"Purchase Dragon God Art."

With a thought, information about the technique appeared in his mind.

Ye Wen also bought a bottle of elixir and began cultivation.

In no time, his strength reached the True Qi realm; his aura surged skyward, scattering the clouds above the Ye residence.

Zhang Yongcheng, closest to him, was the first to sense the change in his aura. A faint smile appeared on her face as she exhaled deeply.

"My husband has finally stopped being stubborn!"

As a woman of the old era, she cared little for trivial things and was usually easygoing.

But her son's safety was never among them.

This was absolutely her reverse scale.

After learning of the future crisis, she was actually very worried inside, wanting to make Ip Man give up his fixed ideas and seek help in the chat group.

However, living in this era, although she appeared very fierce, she was actually influenced by the three obediences and four virtues, and found it hard to speak up to change her husband's persistence, to change the principles by which her husband handled matters.

So over these past days, although her body had grown stronger, her spirit had been constantly on edge.

She was too worried about the future!

She was too conflicted inside!

Fortunately, after the challenger left earlier, her husband's mindset had changed.

Otherwise, she didn't know how long she would have to keep agonizing!

"But, this also means the danger is coming soon."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yongcheng couldn't help but tense up again, glanced toward her son sleeping on one side, and frowned.
