Chapter 167: Days on Earth, an Uninvited Guest
Zhou Yang's return instantly made the previously quiet home bustling.
Although his own realm had long reached Realm Lord Level, requiring no ordinary food at all, Wang Shumei still insisted on arranging a large table of her signature dishes.
And Zhou Yong even brought out the fine wine he had treasured since Earth's "ancient" era.
The wine's name is rather pleasant: it is called "Jinshi Yuan", a historic famous wine from the Yangzhou region before Earth's Great Nirvana, and it is said to have been inscribed and praised by an ancient great poet of Huaxia.
"Come, Qingmeng, try this dish; it was Yangyang's favorite when he was little."
"Girl, taste the fine wine Uncle has treasured; I'm not bragging, but this wine is almost extinct now, and probably only I have a few bottles left. Yangyang, why are you standing there, pour the wine!"
Wang Shumei and Zhou Yong, as a couple, one busy picking up dishes, the other shouting to pour wine, were overly enthusiastic toward the Yu Meng King, while their long-unseen own son was left aside.
What surprised Zhou Yang was that the Yu Meng King, who in his impression seemed as heroic as a female war goddess, showed not the slightest pride or displeasure.
At this moment, she truly seemed like an ordinary Earth woman visiting a friend's home, with speech and manners both generous and appropriate.
Enthusiastic "Uncle" and "Auntie" kept spilling from her rosy little mouth, further coaxing Wang Shumei and Zhou Yong into repeated laughter.
If it weren't for repeatedly confirming that her soul aura was fine, Zhou Yang would have thought she had been possessed.
But because of that, some questions he originally wanted to ask suddenly couldn't be spoken.
The lively gathering went on for a long time before the Yu Meng King finally rose to take leave after Zhou Yang's repeated glances.
Wang Shumei couldn't keep her from leaving, but she thrust a big red envelope into her hand.
"Qingmeng, take it; this is our custom!"
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yang's eyes nearly rolled up to the heavens.
A moment later, on a golden beach by the sea in Jiangnan Base City, Zhou Yang and the Yu Meng King simultaneously appeared via Teleportation.
The Yu Meng King lunged forward a few steps, then kicked off her shoes, her tender white feet bare on the damp sand.
The surging tide periodically approached, reaching just to cover her toes before receding.
"Although your planet is not large, both its scenery and culture are very attractive."
The Yu Meng King spread her arms as if embracing the sea breeze, her jet‑black hair lightly lifting behind her.
Both the people and the sea were like that—tranquil and indifferent.
"Hey, Yu Meng King, can you speak now? You, the mighty Peak Sealing King, immortal and powerful, why didn't you cultivate properly and instead came to Earth to experience mortal life?"
Zhou Yang couldn't help but ask aloud.
"First!"
The Yu Meng King turned, extending a scallion‑white finger,
"I'm not called 'Hey', nor Yu Meng King; please call me by my Earth name, 'Li Qingmeng'!"
"Second, I am not the Peak Sealing King, nor have I neglected cultivation; now, on the path of the Space‑Time Law, I have progressed and already reached the level of Sealing King Limit!"
"Third, I'm not here to experience mortal life. Hmph, I am currently a special envoy stationed on Earth for the Axe Arena, tasked with monitoring all immigration activities—this is an official mission!"
After speaking, she lifted her delicate head high, wearing a look of self‑satisfaction.
"." At this moment Zhou Yang couldn't help but sigh; the Yu Meng King even claimed she wasn't experiencing mortal life, spouting such a classic line—she must be extremely bored. Yet hearing that she was on a mission eased his mind.
A Peak Sealing King—no, a Sealing King Limit Stronger—if truly ill‑intentioned, could easily deliver an exterminating blow to Earth's Yuan Ju Min.
That is also why Zhou Yang, upon discovering her appearance on Earth, immediately approached her.
The current Earth Lineage is still too fragile to withstand any strike.
However, soon, with the massive resources he brought back this time, humanity's development on Earth will definitely enter a geyser‑like explosive phase.
Perhaps in just tens of thousands of years, a batch of Immortal Gods could gradually emerge among Earth's humans.
Whether a race is strong cannot be judged by only one or two top combatants.
After all, even the most elite strong ones face the risk of falling.
Only when Earth's humanity possesses a continual stream of Immortal Gods, along with a large number of Realm Lord Level, Domain Lord Level, and Universe Level beings, and with Zhou Yang, Luo Feng and a few others as top combatants, can the Earth human race barely be considered a relatively decent mid‑tier group in the Universe!
The path of Earth's humanity is still long, and news of Zhou Yang's return to Earth spread quickly.
In the following period, the villas of Mingyue Community became unusually lively.
Some familiar relatives and friends, as well as the Xingkong Martial Arts Hall, Huaxia Starlight Universe Company, and even some senior figures from the original Earth's Five Great Powers, all came to visit one after another.
In this life, due to his involvement, the revenue from selling half of Earth's ownership increased greatly; at the Realm Lord Level alone, he received the first sum of a total of 200 billion Hunyuan Units.
A large portion of this was invested into Earth's development, making Earth's progress a few steps faster than in the original story.
And Zhou Yang's return this time also brought a massive amount of precious resources for Earth, which he took the opportunity to distribute.
As for his own parents, needless to say, he directly consumed a large amount of precious resources to elevate their realms to Immortal Level.
Others, such as several friends from his former hunting squad—Lei Shu, Liu Shu, Chen Ge, as well as Xia Jie's younger brother, his training camp instructor Dong Dao, those who had looked after him like Wu Tong and Zhuge Tao, and even his high school classmate Wei Wen, all received a special gift.
As for the rest, they were all handed over to the Xingkong Martial Arts Hall and Huaxia Starlight Universe Company for distribution.
Today's Xingkong Martial Arts Hall is presided over by Jia Yi, the former top warrior of the Huaxia military who has now broken through to become a Realm Lord, assisted by several Realm Lords from the Huaxia First Line.
These individuals have been protecting Huaxia citizens since the Great Nirvana era, heroes whose strength and character are exemplary; Zhou Yang feels confident entrusting them.
Huaxia Starlight Universe Company is overseen by Luo Feng's lover Xu Xin and his younger brother Luo Hua.
One of them is a business elite highly valued even by the Virtual Universe Company's commercial department, the other a rare investment prodigy.
Under their leadership, Huaxia Starlight has become a large‑scale commercial company spanning several Yuzhou Guo, earning massive funds for the development of Earth's human race.
After all these matters were arranged, Zhou Yang finally completely relaxed.
Now, his main body, located at the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters, is silently cultivating, awaiting his inner world to grow to its limit—a process expected to last several hundred years.
And Zhou Yang's doppelganger faithfully stays by Zhou Yong and Wang Shumei, helping them tend flowers, visit friends, occasionally hide his whereabouts, and travel to nearby human planets for a leisurely time.
Meanwhile, the Yu Meng King somehow became close with Wang Shumei, popping over to her home every few days, calling her "Auntie" with such familiarity.
In Zhou Yang's mind, his impression of the Yu Meng King kept fragmenting—how to view her after she shed the armor, as if a seal were lifted—Earth's days are simple yet warm, giving Zhou Yang a rare period of relaxation.
However, on this day, an uninvited guest silently arrived at the villa in Mingyue Community.
