After their chats were over, Yue's parents, together with Shu heng, entered the room. Their expression was gloomy, but Bao didn't inquire about the problems.
"Once you feel well, visit orphanage once in awhile" shu Heng told bao
"We're going now, we have some matters to attend to; if everything is well, you'll be discharged in a week," Chen Luo stated.
After saying that Shu heng and Yue's parents had departed, only Yue remained; as the president, her comments had a lot of weight, so she had to stay in hospital to attend meetings and other important things, but she sees Bao regularly in her spare time.
During the day, Bao would wander around the hospital, while he appeared to be walking around casually, he was investigating the hospital for more possible arrays, and at night, he would refine the energy in porcelain, this process that took him weeks to complete since the hospital was so large.
He discovered further array and energy-storing instruments, as expected, and refined all of them during the same week throughout the night. The amount of energy was initially large, but after purifying all of those energies into a pure misty form, it became the size of a soccer ball. Normally, energy cannot be manifested and observed until someone enters core formation, but it was so pure and visible that it could even form a droplet.
He could now easily lay his foundation, but establishing a foundation here was not a smart idea because the surrounding energy was primarily devoured by the array. He was condensing purified energy at night, a week had gone, and he would be discharged the next day.
The next day, Yue arrived early in the morning to discharge Bao and take him home. She was as gorgeous as before, but she had a frown on her face.
"Yue'er, what is the problem can you tell me now?"
He was aware that something was upsetting her since sister shu heng's visit, but he was not told of the nature of the problem.
"Not here, I'll tell you once we get home,"
He didn't press the issue; after completing all of the paperwork, Bao was discharged, and they drove home in her car.
After driving for half an hour, they arrived at their destination, which was a hilly area with greenery everywhere, everything surrounded by vegetation, the place was not crowded, only a few mansions could be seen, and only the wealthy could afford to live there; it was one of the city's main attraction sites.
Chen Luo, a director of one of the country's largest hospitals, had a lot of money to spend, so he bought a mansion in the hills where there is a tranquil environment. The mansion was enormous and elegant, with a garden, a fountain, and everything a mansion would have, including maids, gardeners, and other staff, so he could have peace of mind after retirement.
At the back of the mansion stood a massive old tree, a sacred fig/Bo tree that had been there when the mansion was built and had not been removed. It provided shade from the sun and was a pleasant spot to relax. According to Buddhist tradition, it is a sacred symbol in Buddhism and can help to quiet one's mind when meditating beneath it.
The sacred fig was old, and it resembled a spiritual plant but paled in comparison to the genuine thing. After witnessing many years of sun and moon, the tree has amassed a massive amount of energy that can aid him in his cultivation here.
It was the ideal location for him to lay his foundation, they got out of the car and went towards the doors, where the maids opened the door and greeted Yue and Bao
It was a luxury to be wealthy; someone was always there to meet your everyday needs. Bao was unimpressed by the sight. As a former supreme being of the immortal world, he had already lived the life of the wealthy and powerful, and he had witnessed fairies dancing and singing for numerous times. He became numb to this form of entertainment.
"Where have father and mother gone?" Yue asked of one of her maids
"Sir and my lady went outdoors not long ago," said the maid.
Luo and Sumi had been restless for a week after returning from the hospital, as if something was bugging them, something related to Shu heng and the orphanage.
Although most of the housekeeping was done by maids and other workers, Yue didn't overlook developing her home skills.
They both proceeded into the dining area where breakfast was prepared. They headed to their room after eating their meal.
"Could you tell me what happened to sister Shu that caused uncle and aunt so worried?"
"A month ago, sister Shu received a letter indicating that someone wanted to buy that plot of property, and the residents in the surrounding region received the same letter,"
"Why would someone want to buy such a vast area?"
"They indicated that they planned to build a factory in that region, and while many refused their offers and complained, those individuals were intimidated and some were beaten up, and in the end, they had to sell their property at a low price," Yue responded.
"Did sister Shu sell the orphanage?"
"No, she hasn't given up yet, but it's only a matter of time,"
"Did anyone call the cops or any other government officials?"
"They did, but it was useless; they wouldn't make a move or do anything further; father and mother are meeting with old friends for assistance,"
After learning everything, he was dissatisfied with what was going on. He understood the world isn't equal for everyone. It makes no difference whether it is the immortal world or this world.
Everyone will push you around if you don't have any power. The so-called equality we speak of is only by nature,
Equality is a myth.
Yue was conversing with Bao when she received a call from the hospital, saying she needed to attend a meeting, so she left Bao to rest at the mansion. It was time for Bao to lay the foundation; he had already refined all of the energy collected by arrays into a pure form the size of a soccer ball, so he went to the back of the mansion and ordered that no one disturb him in his rest! He walked to the sacred fig/Bo tree, sat under it, and began concentrating all of the remaining pure energies into his abdomen. Creating a ball of energy around his abdomen He swirls his hand in a yin-yang pattern. It was that nameless secret skill that began accumulating energy from the environment, primarily from the old tree he was seated beneath. It had amassed a significant amount of spiritual energy throughout its life, But this energy didn't reach his abdomen, where his pure ball of energy resided, instead it surrounded his entire body, leaving thin clouds around his skin. It was planned to open
After old Feng and Lu Mei entered the mansion, Bao meditated for a time under the old tree, and Yue returned from her work later that evening. She was surprised to meet Lu mei and began chatting with her. "Big sister Yue," lu mei said, hugging Yue. "Little Mei, when did you come? Shouldn't you have told me?" Yue asked while patting her on the head gently. "I wanted to surprise big sister yue. That's why I told them not to tell sister " little mei responded Bao went inside the mansion, he knew that meditating under the tree at night was not a smart idea. When lu mei saw him approaching, she grabbed Yue's hands and hid behind her; seeing her terrified, he could only laugh uncomfortably. "Have you two already met, little mei?" Yue asked "Yes," she said softly. "Did you bully little mei?" "No, I think she's just afraid I'll take her big sister for myself," She didn't understand what he meant at first. She blushed red after a split second. They then went to the living room, where h
While talking Bao and Yue stayed on the roof for a while, it was almost spring, when a sharp breeze passed by, they grew cold and went inside the mansion. "How is the discussion with the other party going, Yue'er? Was the orphanage saved?" They had been trying to solve this problem for over a week and had even sought assistance from Lu Feng. "No, it isn't solved yet," Yue said, "but father said it should be resolved in the next two to three days." It was difficult to keep the conversation on track because the other side was backed by someone powerful. "Oh, hold on a second, here's your phone. I've added my contact, as well as my father's, mother's, and our driver's, so you won't have to wait for a taxi next time" After that, they both walked to their rooms, and Bao sat in a meditative posture to check his core formation process, as he had formed a quasi core when he constructed his foundation. Although accumulating energy without needing to meditate sounds great, those in the upp
When Bao and Lu Feng arrived on the second floor, guards stood at the door, asking for membership card. Old Feng showed his cards, and the guards let them in. "are those guards?" "They are not guards; they are only there to verify membership," old Feng explained. "Membership? Didn't you mention that everyone can enter the pagoda?" "Well, that rule only applies to the first floor; above that, you'll need a membership card, which is different depending on how much you spend inside the pagoda," old Feng said. "Oh, how many floors can you can get on with that card?" "Silver, gold, diamond, and platinum membership cards are ranked from lowest to highest. Only the third floor is accessible with my gold card "explained Lu Feng "Has anyone made it to the top floor?" "To go to the fifth floor, you need a platinum card, and those cards are limited in quantity, so only the wealthiest can receive one," old Feng said. They saw a lot of individuals on the second floor, although less than on
When Bao and old Feng returned to the mansion, it was almost evening; old Luo and Sumi were present at the time and returned before them. After that, Bao returned to his room with the items he had purchased, and he pulled out the stone that the elderly man had given him for free. Despite the fact that he claimed the stone was from outer space and that astronomy was used to cover it up. He recognized the stone at first glance; it was a Moon-stone. This type of stone is not unusual in the immortal world and can be mined from any desolate star, but here in this isolated world, its worth was no less than a diamond, and if someone knowledgeable were to discover it, it would be one of the most priceless treasures. Moon-stone is comparable to energy crystals formed by the condensation of spiritual energy, but it differs from energy crystals in that it contains other types of minerals and impurities that energy crystals do not have. If one is skilled at removing impurities, those minerals co
Bao refined high-grade common pills for body strengthening two days after Bao and old Feng visited the clear sky pagoda. Those pills were not for him, and they were common pills, thus they were ineffective for his body. Body strengthening pills of less than profound grade were worthless to him due to his practice of a variation of Dragon gate. He used to do alchemy in his spare time, despite not being an alchemy genius. When he was in the immortal world, he used to do alchemy with a friend. His friend was later crowned Alchemy Emperor. Despite the title, his friend could refine pills of emperor grade and higher; he was a true alchemy genius. A day ago, old Feng informed Bao that there would be a match in the arena at the end of each month, with three fights between old Feng's fighter and the other party's fighter, to settle the matter of the orphanage, which was shortly to be replaced by a factory. Bao wanted to assist old Feng, so he concocted several body strengthening pills for th
When Bao was born in Decem-milia realm, his name was Hai Rong, and his family name was Hai. They were a subspecies of the Dragon race, yet Hai Rong and his family lived in coastal locations. Their rank was inferior compared to other Dragons due to their being hybrids of an unknown species, but nonetheless, compared to other races like humans, monsters, and barbarians, they were far more magnificent and majestic. At first, he was astonished to know that other extraterrestrial life also existed, exactly like in mythology. Unlike other young children who like playing or training, he spent his time at the library learning about the world's history and diverse geographies. After going to the library to read every day, at the age of 9, he finished reading every book in that sect's library. He got to know different races, their relationships, and their history. But the library here mostly included works dealing to dragons and their surrounds, and not the races in the wider Decem-Milia realm
Several days passed after Bao went to the arena, and the orphanage was saved, other parties also returned to the neighboring lands, old Feng took all the credits but Bao didn't mind. Old Feng and his daughter returned to their family as well, because he was the family's head and his presence was crucial. Bao was bored while staying in the mansion; his core was already a perfect mortal core; to progress to the next stage, which is the nascent soul, he needed a massive amount of energy, which he currently lacked; he would need another ten or more years to gather the amount of energy required, if he didn't find some good spiritual treasure. Yue noticed him being bored and wearing the same three outfits over and over, so she took him on a shopping date. Bao's mood brightened after going out with her; she chose several fashionable clothing for him. It was almost dark, so she brought him to a fine restaurant to finish their date. While they were eating, an unwanted guest arrived at their
