Chapter 79

The next day, just as Zhang Fan arrived at the company and opened his computer, a piece of news popped up.

"Breaking News! Shen Group investigated for gang involvement, Hengye Plaza surrounded!"

"So fast..."

Zhang Fan was stunned. The Shen Group was a famous large group in Yujing City, with businesses covering commerce, travel, real estate, logistics, new energy, etc. As for Hengye Plaza, it was one of their largest assets. It is said that the land alone sold for a high price of over 500 million back then.

The case happened last night, and today the public opinion of major media was already overwhelming.

The Shen Group, which was an excellent private enterprise yesterday, instantly became a street rat that everyone shouted to beat.

All kinds of black materials were dug up.

"The Shen family is also finished... hmm? Why did I say 'also'?" Zhang Fan curled his lips and said.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fan raised his hand and closed the news webpage. It had nothing to do with him anyway.

He did gain something from this trip to the Shen family. His soul-aspect indeed had some problems. After the stimulation of the 【Xuanjian Baolu】, the power of the Zhenwu Jade Tablet manifested, actually making his soul-aspect grow quite a bit.

Besides that, he actually gained the ability of 【Drawing Talismans in the Void】, as well as the drawing method of the 【Mountain-Breaking and Peak-Suppressing Talisman】.

These things came out of thin air, as if... as if they were in his brain, in his soul-aspect.

Zhang Fan's cultivation improved quite a bit because of this, and he was one step closer to the 【Gao Gong】 rank he had been thinking about.

However, Zhang Fan was still in the ranks of 【Art Apprentice】. To reach 【Gao Gong】, he still had to cross the two major ranks of 【Mystic Master】 and 【Spirit Commissioner】.

"Avoid being ambitious and far-sighted." Zhang Fan whispered softly, and casually opened the "Little Yellow Book," clicking on the homepage of 【Millennium Old Demon】. The other party's avatar was still gray. After the last report, they couldn't post anything during this period.

Zhang Fan, as usual, opened the dialog box and sent a message over.

"Who the hell are you? Stalking me?"

Beep...

Just at this moment, a prompt box popped up:

Sorry, you have been blocked by the other party!!!

"Damn..."

Zhang Fan slapped the keyboard abruptly, his whole person almost exploding.

"I hate deleting and blocking at every turn the most. Is there anything that can't be said properly?"

"This Millennium Old Demon wouldn't be an Aquarius, would he!?"

Zhang Fan stared with wide eyes, staring fixedly at the screen, wishing he could pull the other party out along the network cable.

"Hmm!?"

Just at this moment, Zhang Fan saw that the other party's avatar actually lit up, and they had just changed their personalized signature:

Restless consciousness is a great taboo in cultivation!

"Who the hell is this pointing at!?" Zhang Fan was restless.

"Wen He, deduct two hundred from him."

Just at this moment, Bai Buran's voice came gloomily from behind. Zhang Fan turned his head to look, and the latter had already walked into his office holding a thermos cup.

"Not big brother... are you slacking off so arrogantly!?"

Jiang Hu sat on the swivel chair and turned over.

"Count me unlucky."

Zhang Fan closed the page and suddenly said: "By the way, you have stayed in Yujing City for so many years, you should know it very well."

"Which aspect are you talking about?"

"Major cultivation families, sects, and forces in Yujing City." Zhang Fan said casually.

"Why are you asking this?" Jiang Hu asked back.

"Curiosity."

Since returning from the Shen family, many memory fragments had appeared in Zhang Fan's brain one after another. He knew that his soul-aspect definitely had problems, and some things needed to be verified.

"No problem, I will organize a document for you later."

Jiang Hu looked at Zhang Fan and nodded, but his gaze never left him for an instant.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Something up?" Zhang Fan noticed the clue and couldn't help but ask.

"I..."

Jiang Hu hesitated to speak. He had a question in his heart. Yesterday at the Shen family, just when his soul-aspect was about to sink, Zhang Fan's soul-aspect was actually able to appear in his soul-aspect's inner scene and pull him out...

He did know that some sects had the method of soul-aspect entering the body, but those were all secret techniques, such as the 【Great Sect Law, Appearance Together but Spirit Apart】 of the White Crane Temple in Shangjing City...

"No... nothing, I will give you the document later."

Jiang Hu turned the chair and turned back to his seat. Everyone had their own secrets, and he was not that curious.

He only needed to remember one thing: Zhang Fan had saved his life.

That was enough.

Ding-dong...

Just at this moment, another piece of news popped up.

"Shocking! Shen family suddenly caught fire last night, Shen siblings buried in the sea of fire, only the young brother remains..." Zhang Fan opened it and took a look. The news said that the Shen family suddenly encountered a big fire, Shen Xiangrong and Shen Qingli were both buried in the sea of fire, and only one younger brother, Shen Xiangdong, was spared because he had returned to school.

"Family decline, life changes drastically." Zhang Fan sighed.

This Shen Xiangdong had been wealthy since childhood, but now everything was gone overnight. Suffering such a blow in life, I am afraid that ordinary people would not even have the courage to live on.

At this time, Yujing City University Town.

Dongda Campus.

The summer vacation had already begun, and there were only a few students left on campus, involutioning for various project competitions and papers for GPA.

"Is that Shen Xiangdong? He was a popular figure in school just a few days ago..."

"Bullshit popular figure, isn't it just because his family is rich? Now everything is gone, let's see how he shows off."

"Those fox friends and dog companions from before have all disappeared..."

"They are all street rats now, who would still suck up to him!?"

Just at this moment, three students passed by the playground, looking at Shen Xiangdong sitting alone on the stands, and couldn't help whispering.

Shen Xiangdong was like a walking corpse, sitting there blankly, his eyes hollow, as if he had lost his soul, and he didn't seem to hear those harsh words.

"Finished... everything is finished..."

Overnight, his brother, sister, and the Shen family... everything he once relied on was gone.

Such a change, a normal person probably wouldn't encounter it in this life or the next.

"If this body does not encounter trials, how can one become an immortal and attain the Dao?"

Just at this moment, a gloomy voice came from behind, accompanied by the sound of footsteps.

"You, as you are now, are the best material for cultivation..."

"Although the Shen family is finished, you are still here..."

Shen Xiangdong's body shook, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look.

"Come with me, I can help you!"

Just at this moment, a man came before him. His arms were empty, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Who are you?" Shen Xiangdong couldn't help but ask: "A friend of my Shen family?"

He had been studying away from home since he was very young and had never touched the family business. He almost didn't know any of the Shen family's friends.

"My name is Wu Qilu... I am a good friend of your grandfather."

"Come with me, one day, I will let you possess the power to revitalize the Shen family..." A different kind of brilliance rose in Wu Qilu's eyes. He stared at Shen Xiangdong, as if he had found incredible material.

"But before that, I still have to take one more person away."

"One person?" Shen Xiangdong revealed a look of doubt.

Evening, Hongfu Huayuan.

Today's weather was exceptionally gloomy, with strong winds howling, as if a storm could arrive at any moment.

There were not many people left in the residential area, and even the streets were much quieter.

"Zhang Fan, does he live in here?"

"Mr. Wu said, he must be taken away."

At this time, two strangely dressed men appeared at the entrance of Hongfu residential area. Although it was the height of summer, they were wearing long robes and sunglasses, one tall and one short.

The big black dog at the entrance saw the two and made a whimpering sound, lowering its head, wagging its tail, and circling around, seeming extremely terrified.

"Let's go, it's just a matter of convenience."

As they spoke, the tall and short men were about to enter the residential area.

"Two gentlemen... wait a moment..."

Just at this moment, a slow, indifferent voice came from behind.

The two turned their heads to look and saw a middle-aged man wearing short sleeves and shorts walking over slowly. His figure was a bit chubby, and he was carrying a bag of steamed buns in his hand.

"Although it's not my shift today, this residential area isn't somewhere you can just walk into..."

The indifferent voice rang out in the strong wind, revealing a sense of duty.

"Who are you?" The tall one said coldly.

"Hongfu Huayuan, nine-year security guard..."

"Liu Fusheng!!!"

While speaking, Uncle Liu placed the buns in front of the window of the security room at the entrance, and his rubbing palms slowly took off the glove on his right hand.
