Yan Ge’s proposed location for practicing driving was Fengshan, an undeveloped area outside the imperial capital with a forest at the foot of the mountain. This was the only place in the capital that remained undeveloped, hence it was rarely visited by people.
Huangfu Yuchen was driving, while Yan Ge provided guidance from the passenger seat. In less than an hour, Huangfu Yuchen had become a proficient driver, comparable to an experienced driver.
“Baby, I think we should prepare more gas. That way, we can use a car even if we travel through other time and space.” Huangfu Yuchen said as he got out of the car.
“Sure. But the purchase of gas is limited, so we need to prepare in advance.” Yan Ge opened the trunk and took out two bottles of mineral water, tossing one to Huangfu Yuchen. “Let’s go behind the mountain and take a look. It should be cooler there.”
“Alright.” Huangfu Yuchen noticed some steps carved into the mountain and held Yan Ge’s hand as they walked towards them.
The trees on the mountain were densely packed, casting large patches of shade that shielded them from the sun. The wind blew gently, providing a refreshing feeling without being too strong. The two of them strolled along, thoroughly enjoying this leisurely experience.
Behind them came the voices of young people chatting and laughing. Yan Ge recognized a voice and turned his head, only to see Yan Yan and several other young men and women walking towards them with excitement.
“Look ahead, two handsome guys!” Jie Yingying nudged Le Guan’s arm, lowering her voice.
Le Guan looked at the two men and found herself captivated. The man on the left was tall with an upright posture, a cold expression, and a majestic demeanor. The man on the right also had a tall figure, a smile on his lips, handsome features, and was dressed in a well-tailored casual khaki outfit that made him look both elegant and relaxed.
Yan Yan followed their gazes and was taken aback. “Second Brother.”
Yan Ge nodded. “Yan Yan, are they your friends?”
“Yes.” Yan Yan’s gaze shifted subtly to Yan Ge and Huangfu Yuchen’s clasped hands. He wrinkled his brow slightly and quickly glanced at his friends.
Yan Ge and Huangfu Yuchen both noticed his subtle movement but didn’t pay it much mind.
Yan Ge was about to say something when Jie Yingying walked up to Yan Yan and said coquettishly, “Yan Yan, do you know them? I
Why don’t you introduce us?”
Yan Yan reluctantly introduced, “This is my Second Brother, Yan Ge, and that’s his friend, Huangfu Yuchen.”
“Xiao Ge, let’s go. Don’t interrupt the young people’s playtime.” Huangfu Yuchen spoke.
Yan Ge nodded and turned to Yan Yan. “Stay safe.”
They turned and left.
Huang Jie exclaimed, “Look at their hands…”
The others suddenly realized and made strange sounds, “Ah.” Then, they collectively turned their gaze towards Yan Yan.
“Does your Second Brother like guys?” Liu Chao looked at Yan Yan with a suggestive look, smiling meaningfully.
Yan Yan blushed with anger. He took a few steps forward and caught up with Yan Ge, yelling, “Yan Ge! Have you no shame? You don’t even consider the impact outside!”
Huangfu Yuchen’s eyes darkened and a glance like an ice shard shot towards Yan Yan.
Yan Yan shuddered, feeling a chill down his spine. He felt a bit wronged, and his eyes reddened. Unfortunately, no one seemed to buy into his act.
Yan Ge gave Huangfu Yuchen’s hand a squeeze and smiled at Yan Yan. “What impact could a nobody like me have? Could I possibly bring about the end of the world? Just enjoy yourselves.”
With that, he paid no further attention to Yan Yan and walked away with Huangfu Yuchen.
Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing, seemingly carefree, Yan Yan felt even more frustrated by their indifference to his scolding. His face turned bright red.
The short haired Nie Jingjing was the first to speak. “Actually, they match quite well.”
Yan Yan was annoyed, but he couldn’t say much to Nie Jingjing, a girl.
Le Guan sighed regretfully. “It’s a pity that our fellow sisters have lost two choices.”
Gan Tian nodded. “But our fellow brothers are in luck.”
Yu Haolei, the most mature among them, patted Yan Yan’s shoulder reassuringly. “Alright, don’t mind it. Let’s find a place to camp. Nightfall is approaching.”
Yan Yan glanced towards the direction Yan Ge and Huangfu Yuchen had gone, then turned his head. “Let’s go to the other side.”
For the sake of his mood, the others had to follow him.
Yan Yan’s low mood persisted for a while. Liu Chao punched him and subtly gestured towards the four beautiful women. In a low voice, he said, “Come on, buddy, today is a rare opportunity. Don’t mess things up.”
Yan Yan’s tone dripped with disdain. “I just can’t understand how a man can like another man. Disgusting! Whatever, I don’t care.”
“Both of you, hurry up!” Jie Yingying stood on a rock not far away, waving to urge them.
“We’re coming!” Yan Yan and Liu Chao rushed forward.
By now, Yan Ge and Huangfu Yuchen had reached the mountaintop. It was cooler at the summit, and they even sensed a faint spiritual energy, which surprised them. When they first arrived on Earth, they found the spiritual energy here was sparse, especially in urban areas. The reason their spirit gathering formation didn’t attract attention was partly due to the scarcity of spiritual energy.
“Perhaps there are spiritual objects in this mountain,” Yan Ge speculated.
Huangfu Yuchen wasn’t particularly interested. He saw a relatively flat grassy area ahead and suggested, “How about we have our picnic here, baby?”
“Alright.” Yan Ge comfortably lay down, enjoying the gentle breeze.
Huangfu Yuchen patted his knee and said, “I’ll go get the things.”
If not for the presence of others on the mountain, they could have directly retrieved the necessary items from their spatial storage.
Huangfu Yuchen had descended the mountain when suddenly, the wind changed from hot to cold. Trees shook violently as the wind direction shifted from south to north, accompanied by a drop in temperature. The rustling of leaves sounded like a chorus of whispers, one wave higher than the next. Spiritual energy surged through the mountain at a rapid pace, moving towards the north.
“Cultivators?” Huangfu Yuchen’s curiosity was piqued. Yan Ge had mentioned that this world had no cultivators, so where did these cultivators come from? And who were the opponents they were fighting?
The wind grew stronger, howling as it swept through the area, causing clouds to swirl and tumble rapidly in the sky.
Huangfu Yuchen casually carried the picnic equipment, his figure flashing as he instantly appeared near the battlefield. He saw that one side of the battle was dressed in camouflage uniforms. The other side had sharp facial features, a prominent nose, and hair that wasn’t black. They were very much like the foreigners he had seen on TV.
In the center of the battlefield stood an elderly man who appeared to be around fifty years old, and a middle-aged man with brown hair. Behind the elderly man were four people in camouflage uniforms, all injured and pale. They had serious expressions as they watched the battle. Behind the middle-aged man stood four people, one woman and three men, looking smugly at the others in camouflage uniforms.
The elderly man was named Wang Zhiyuan, and his cultivation was at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. He had thought that with his abilities, he could surpass Bishop Chardock, but Bishop Chardock proved to be much more difficult to deal with than he had anticipated.
“Hahaha! Mr. Wang, surrender!” Bishop Chardock forced Wang Zhiyuan to retreat repeatedly, laughing arrogantly. “If you’re willing to surrender, I can spare your life.”
“Don’t even think about it!” Wang Zhiyuan infused true qi into his fists, making them as solid as iron hammers. He aimed his fists at Bishop Chardock, and the excess true qi crackled like electricity.
Bishop Chardock’s expression changed; he knew these fists were extraordinary and couldn’t be taken lightly. A white light surged within him, and he shouted loudly as he used his palms to meet Wang Zhiyuan’s fists head-on.
The two powerful forces collided fiercely, shooting into the sky and piercing through the rolling black clouds. With a deafening bang, heavy rain poured down, accompanied by fierce winds. Fengshan was engulfed in a sudden downpour, as if it were being struck by a typhoon.
On the other side of the mountain
On the other side of the mountain, Yan Yan and the group managed to take refuge in a tent just in time. However, the strong wind quickly flipped the tent over, and they rolled and tumbled down the hillside while screaming. Luckily, they were stopped by trees. Although they managed to escape, they were drenched by the heavy rain and everyone’s mood was at its worst. They had managed to arrange dates with the girls they liked, hoping for a romantic night, but instead, they were faced with such terrible weather, leaving no room for romance.
“Is everyone here?” Yu Haolei sat on the ground, gripping tufts of grass in each hand to anchor himself. He surveyed his surroundings, “Where’s Le Guan?”
Seeing that Le Guan was missing, Yan Yan’s group became anxious and shouted loudly, “Le Guan! Le Guan!”
The rain drowned out their voices, and there was no response.
Gan Tian hugged a tree for support, her clothes soaked, her blue bra and panties visible due to the wet fabric and Liu Chao and Huang Jie couldn’t help but glance at her.
couldn’t hold back her tears and sobbed, “Wu… Sister Ying Ying, what should we do now? The wind is so strong, and the rain is pouring down so heavily. Where can we find Le Guan?”
Jie Yingying was wearing a white dress and was equally disheveled. “Everyone, don’t panic. We can’t scatter further. Should we go down the mountain and find help?”
“No, we can’t leave Le Guan behind!” Yan Yan’s expression changed. “What if she’s in danger?”
Yu Haolei thought for a moment and shouted, “Yan Yan, isn’t your second brother also on the mountain? Let’s go find them first and ask for their help.”
When Yan Ge saw Yan Yan approaching, his friends in disarray and shouting to each other, he frowned slightly.
Gan Tian’s sharp eyes spotted him first. “Second Brother! Second Brother! We’re here!”
Yan Yan looked at Yan Ge, who held an umbrella in one hand and a bundle of ropes in the other, walking towards them steadily. Yan Yan’s mouth opened slightly but closed just as quickly.
Yan Ge glanced over and only saw seven people. He untied the ropes and tossed them down. “Hold onto the ropes and wait here. Yan Yan, come with me.” His spiritual sense had already detected that Le Guan was nearby, lying motionless on the ground, having fainted.
“What do you want?” Yan Yan asked warily.
“To find your companion,” Yan Ge replied impatiently, grabbing Yan Yan’s arm and pulling him over to Le Guan’s side.
“Le Guan!” Yan Yan hurriedly lifted her.
On the other side, Wang Zhiyuan received a fatal blow, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the ground as he was thrown away.
“Mr. Wang!” The four in camouflage rushed over anxiously, helping him up. “Mr. Wang, how are you?”
“Bishop Chardock, kill him quickly!” The beautiful woman with a “△” figure shouted in a charming voice, playing with a strand of wavy hair. Behind her smiling eyes hid cruelty and a desire to kill.
“Alright.” Chardock smirked and agreed, gathering holy light in his right palm and thrusting it towards Wang Zhiyuan.
The milky white holy light resembled a pillar, flying towards Wang Zhiyuan at high speed.
The thin man who had been touching Wang Zhiyuan’s right arm quickly changed his expression. Reacting the fastest, he positioned himself in front of Wang Zhiyuan, concentrating the little true qi left in his body on his chest. He was preparing for a strike that even Wang Zhiyuan might not be able to withstand.
“Move aside, Mingwei!” Wang Zhiyuan spit out another mouthful of blood from the effort of talking.
The pain Mingwei had been waiting for didn’t come. Bewildered, he raised his eyes and saw an unfamiliar figure.
“Who are you?” Chardock’s strength faltered, and he retracted his palm. He looked at Huangfu Yuchen with cold, vigilant eyes. The person who could withstand his strike wasn’t simple. However, what was strange was that he couldn’t sense any power from this person. The newcomer seemed like an ordinary person.
Wang Zhiyuan looked at Huangfu Yuchen in surprise and secretly let out a breath of relief. Although he wasn’t sure of the newcomer’s identity and why he had intervened, the most important thing now was to survive. As long as he survived, he had a chance to hold on to the treasure he had acquired.
“Are you all Chinese?” Huangfu Yuchen asked Wang Zhiyuan’s group.
“Yes,” Wang Zhiyuan’s eyes were resolute, without hesitation.
“And are you foreigners?” Huangfu Yuchen turned his gaze to Chardock.
Chardock crossed his arms, his tone arrogant. “So what if we are?”
“No big deal.” Huangfu Yuchen pointed to Wang Zhiyuan’s group. “I prefer the clothes they’re wearing. So, it would be best for you to leave. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Oh?” Chardock sneered, his aura growing colder. “I’m curious to see how impolite you can be.”
Yan Ge’s proposed location for practicing driving was Fengshan, an undeveloped area outside the imperial capital with a forest at the foot of the mountain. This was the only place in the capital that remained undeveloped, hence it was rarely visited by people.
