Changes Had Already Begun

Little Strawberry was also quite frightened, saying repeatedly, "Everyone, don't worry, I'll definitely go after them and see, but... could such a thing really be true?"

She whispered, "That's how my mom was back then. She would always tell me that she dreamed about someone or seemed to see someone's shadow, and then she would say that person was going to die. At first, I didn't believe her, but she was right several times in a row!"

"I've been somewhat skeptical ever since, but I never expected to see it again now?"

"I heard that Zhang Guoqing has been paralyzed for decades. Let's go check on him now!"

The comments section became even more heated, with Little Strawberry's words sparking a lively discussion among viewers.

But when Little Strawberry followed the crowd around the street corner and arrived at Zhang Guoqing's dilapidated house, she found no one there.

Where are they?!

"Isn't he the one who hates going out the most?"

"We've searched the house and the surrounding area, but there's no one there!"

"His wheelchair is still here. Where could someone who's been paralyzed for decades go? This!!!"

"Oh my god, could it be that he suddenly got better?"

From initial fear to current suspicion and disbelief...

"Come to think of it, he had a shadow just now, so he didn't seem like Wandering Spirit!"

"But how is that possible? He's been paralyzed for decades, the hospitals couldn't do anything about it, his wife ran away, and he gave his children away... How could he suddenly be able to walk?"

Shocking! Unbelievable!

The neighbors, who had witnessed Zhang Guoqing's life over the past few decades, were naturally shocked.

But Little Strawberry was different; she was just passing through, so she was relatively objective. "Why don't we go look for her?"

"Now it seems that this Old Man is not Wandering Spirit, so if we just find him, the truth will come out, right?"

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they all felt that it made sense.

"Try to find!!!"

"Yes, we would have understood if we had gotten the Old Man out earlier!"

They immediately began mobilizing the masses and contacting the neighbors who had "split up" earlier, starting to search for the person in the streets and alleys of Green Mountain Town.

Then...

The person has been found!

It's right in front of the Agricultural Bank in town.

"Ah?!"

Little Strawberry was astonished. "This... did you see that? That old man is doing square dancing in the crowd!!!"

The comments section exploded.

"Holy crap?"

"Is this the Old Man? He's so agile! He looks more agile than me, a fat, twenty-something-year-old nerd!"

"To be honest, I'm only eighteen years old, and I'm quite inferior to them."

"Is this what you call square dancing? It sounds more like street dance to me."

"Are you crazy? Old Man seventies who has been paralyzed for decades can dance this well? I'm speechless!"

"..."

No one believed it was true, because it was simply too amazing.

The local neighbors were all dumbfounded, and when they went up to ask, they received a startling answer.

"How am I better?"

How would I know?

"When did it get better? I don't know, I just looked at the stars and it got better..."

Boom!!!

Deep fry directly.

Looking at the stars, an elderly person who had been paralyzed for decades suddenly became healthy and incredibly agile.

No one could believe it, but the truth was undeniable.

Although some believe this is likely a coincidence for some reason...

Even if you can't believe those people, you can't continue talking about it. Coincidence? Yes, it's not impossible that a paralyzed person might suddenly recover one day.

But a man in his seventies, more agile than a young man, after being paralyzed for decades before this???

How could this be a coincidence!

The news spread quickly.

The next day, early morning.

Medical personnel then came and took Zhang Guoqing away for a full examination.

Meanwhile, various related news items also appeared online...

Amazing thing happened during Little Strawberry's live stream: a septuagenarian who had been paralyzed for decades suddenly recovered!

Stargazing? What's so special about the starry sky in Green Mountain Town?

The starry sky of Green Mountain Town sparks controversy; let's see how the locals unravel the mystery...

Many netizens and onlookers participated in this discussion, but almost none of them knew what was going on; they just found it amazing and unbelievable.

A small number of people have associated this starry sky with 'immortal cultivators', but there is no evidence to support this claim.

However...

The eleven Minister of the Resident Happiness Living Department were extremely excited.

"Change has already begun!"

"The test results have been sent over. The man's name is Zhang Guoqing. He has indeed been paralyzed for decades, and his health was already very poor before. Many neighbors thought he wouldn't live past this year, but now he is in very good health, and there is absolutely no trace of his paralysis!"

"It seems that a week is a conservative estimate. Changes have already begun, and more will surely follow!"

"I never imagined that spiritual energy could have such amazing effects!"

"Keep a close eye on it, and at the same time, try to minimize the impact. Otherwise, it could lead to overcrowding in Green Mountain Town, and Mister Lin certainly wouldn't like that!"

"Then... let's try opening more 'pilot' sites gradually, preferably in remote places where there aren't many people!"

"Yes, we... should also start trying cultivation sooner rather than later!"

Zhang Guoqing's changes have sparked widespread discussion.

However, the squad leaders and deputy squad leaders of the Security Department Section of the Resident Happiness Living Department underwent even more astonishing changes after a day of training!

One of them successfully joined!

His body was filled with surging True Essence, which was inexhaustible. With a single punch, he directly pierced through a two-centimeter steel plate!

Although he was also injured, with a fractured bone, which was enough to confirm that he had risked his life for that punch, it was still far beyond the realm of ordinary people!

The news caused an uproar throughout the entire Security Department!

The Scientific Research Team immediately began their work, scanning all his data, inputting it into the supercomputer, and conducting various analyses...

at the same time.

The Cultivation World.

Qi Zi·Fan is now online!

With his feet planted on Azure Scaled Eagle, surrounded by swirling clouds and mist, and all the scenery rushing past, he instantly realized that he had set off!

"That's right. Judging by the time, there are only about ten days left until the Heaven's Chosen Assembly. It's time to set off."

soon.

After receiving the footage from Sister A'Wu over the past three days, Qi Zi·Fan calmly accepted it and continued on his journey. At the same time, his Divine Sense swept over the entire group.

More than a thousand people streaked across the sky, each radiating a different kind of Divine Radiance, making them look quite extraordinary.

Everyone in the ' Saintess ' squad is here.

Besides, there were many familiar fellow disciples, which made Qi Zi·Fan sigh.

"Do so many people think they are geniuses? But that makes sense. Everyone wants to strive for the top, and there are quite a few examples of people who perform poorly in the early stages but suddenly explode later."

"But..."

"Very well, since we are fellow disciples, we should take care of him if he is in danger."

Enemy?

Strictly speaking, Qi Zixiao didn't actually have any life-or-death feuds within the sect, and Qi Zi·Fan certainly didn't either.

At most, they might dislike each other and want to fight, but it wouldn't come to the point of a life-or-death confrontation.

When they are out and about, if they encounter strangers who need their help, they will naturally help each other.

Inside the door?

It's normal for people to fight amongst themselves, but when they're out in the world, they rarely fight each other! This is the current situation of the Purple Mansion Disciple.

"Jiu Wu and Xiao Zhan didn't go together? No, that's not right."

"Should we say they didn't show up at all?"

"That's right. The Three Saints City's sudden initiation of this Heaven's Chosen Assembly was already unclear. Leaving a few cards behind is the most correct choice."

Boom!

Large swaths of white clouds were scattered by the flapping wings of the Azure Scaled Eagle.

Heading to...

The Boundary River, resembling an endless sea, appeared at the edge of the horizon.

"Is that the Boundary River?"

Someone exclaimed in amazement, "That's truly astonishing!"

"Your Highness..."

Dan the Fatty came closer, his head adorned with the Ink Blood Toad, looking somewhat surprised and uncertain. "I've heard that the Boundary River is extremely dangerous, and it's quite hostile towards cultivators from outside the Central Province."

"You've been here before. When you boarded the boundary boat, did you learn anything?"

This fat guy is quick-witted.

In short...

I just want to ask: How can I pretend to be a regular when it's my first time taking the border boat?

Qi Zi·Fan chuckled upon hearing this, "I don't know either."

"Although I've been here before, it was always my martial uncle who led me across the Boundary River with his extraordinary strength!"

He really wanted to laugh.

Because it's like some netizens on Earth asking, "How can I pretend to be a frequent flyer on my first flight?"

However, he really couldn't answer, since he had never sat there before.

However, the Azure Scaled Eagle suddenly stopped and lightly stepped on the ground. "Stop for now."

He spoke.

The Azure Scaled Eagle stopped in mid-air and immediately ceased its advance. The more than 1,300 Purple Mansion Disciple also stopped.

"The Boundary River is not far away. Once we cross it, we will reach the Central Province Boundary River."

Qi Zi·Fan said calmly, "You are all here for the first time. You are unfamiliar with the place and the people, so it is easy for all sorts of problems to arise, such as being ripped off."

"However, we are not entirely unprepared. Do you remember what Martial Aunt Su Muxue taught us? How should we respond to this situation?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Fan Jianqiang shouted, "Arrogant, spoiled brat, and utterly domineering!"

"Right!"

Qi Zi·Fan chuckled lightly.

"We must all be more domineering and arrogant, and never be patient or try to play dumb to take advantage of others!"

"The Boundary River and boundary boats are controlled by the three holy lands of Central Province. Even if they look down on the cultivators of the Four Desolations, we Purple Mansion Disciple are not afraid!"

"By boldly revealing our identities, they won't dare to act recklessly."

"If everyone thinks about being patient, playing dumb to outsmart others, and acting like a rogue Rogue Cultivator, they're bound to be harassed, so..."

"Fellow disciples, do I need to say more about what to Saintess next?"

Upon hearing this, everyone understood and began to speak.

"Your Highness is wise!"

"We understand now!"

"Hearing His Highness's words is better than reading a hundred years' worth of books! Fellow disciples, His Highness has shown us the way, why don't we hurry up and prepare?!"

Dan the Fatty, laughed heartily and was the first to "take action"!
